hey stuck on boot logo there are many questions like this ok consegregate........
now the answer before flashing any rom wipe factory resets ,wipe card partitions and wipe delvik cache using cwm and also keep your battery full .i installed cm7 rc1 by grif with this method.
and also use roms build for ace only hahahaha

Where's your phone from?
I had some problems flashing some roms for S5830 since mine is S5830B.

before installing any custom rom in recovery do a factory reset then wipe cache partiton and dalvik cache then flash the rom

My phones from India.I did do all the wipes and resets.Even tried flashing with sys and data mounted.Tried even after formatting system and data.But nothing works.The only rom which i successfully flashed through cwm is ginger real 1.4.

I tried on ddkq5,ddkq6 and kph.I had grif's cyanogenmod on my sd.wiped cache ,dalvik cache and factory reseted the phone.Mounted the sys and data.Then installed the zip file.after this it boots till the select language screen and then goes off.if i restart it the same thing happens.Tried factory reseting and wiping caches even after flashing but it does not help.Facing the same problem for MY-UI as well as gingercruzt.I even tried format the system before flashing.Tried with cwm v4 as well as v5.

[Q] Help...

Hi,
I tried to port a Sense "Zero" ROM to my ACE, and hard bricked it.
Those at Samsung changed the motherboard for mine for FREE (My dad took it to service and he didn't tell the staff there that it was rooted so warranty not "voided" yet)
Now here's the situation.
Before bricking the ACE, I can normally flash ICS roms without wiping data/factory reset when finished flashing it.
But after that, I have trouble .For example, the CM9 Galaxyics by Maclaw's team Rom. I need to do a wipe after flashing to boot it normally. But for AOKP, it got stuck at whitescreen practically FOREVER.(I wiped already). Should I try to flash a new bootloader and stock ROM from sammobile.com again or do something else?
Thx for ur advice.
Hopefully I don't need to buy a new one, or fix my HTC Desire's motherboard which keeps rebooting after 5 mins and cost about $150
why dont u go to download and install fresh firmware,sorry if i mistaken

Hey .. before u flash the AOKP rom must do reset factory data,wipe cache n also dalvik cache .. After u flash the rom, u need to do reset factory, wipe cache n wipe dalvik cache again . AOKP has different way to install
The Desire reboot problem.....ahh good times

Update: Now I got problems with GalaxyICS and MIUIv4 too......Normally I don't need to do that much wipe when flashing ICS.

What standard ROM did you use? Did you do a wipe after you installed Clockwork?

General steps before flashing a new ROM.
1. Backup your present ROM just incase
1. Wipe data/ factory reset
2. Wipe cache partition
3. Wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
4. Format /system (under mount)
5. Flash your desired Rom/zips
6. Fix permissions (under advanced)
Notes:
- If you are moving from from an AOSP ROM to Samsung (vice versa), perform all the steps above.
- If you are upgrading / downgrading from one android version to another e.g ICS to jellybean or 4.0.3 to 4.0.4, also perform all the steps above.
- If you are upgrading from a Samsung ROM to another wipe the same android version, you may skip step 1.
- if you are upgrading your Aosp/aokp Rom with another with the same android version e.g 4.0.4 Aosp to 4.0.4 aokp, you may also skip step 1.
*******Important******
If you are presently running a Samsung based 4.0.4 Rom that is using Samsung based kernel e.g CF-ROOT or stock kernel, please flash Siyah kernel before performing any of the above steps. You will end up with an unusable device if you don't adhere to this important information.

Based on the bold, you're in a bootloop. Try to wipe data/ factory reset, clear cache and dalvic in cwm recovery and it should work
Edit: and are you following the steps on the first post of the thread? The creator of the rom usually has step by step instructions on how to install the rom

darkside super wipe
can i just use darkside super wipe before installing a new rom is that good enough
I used to have the same problem too, the problem was with my kernel, if you can, go into download mode and flash stock ROM then root using siyah
