You have to install CWM recovery to flash GingerDX. Then you have to reboot to CWM and choose Install update ZIP from sd card, find GDX zip file and select it to flash it.

how can i install CWM please sir guide me step by step i will be so thankful to u!
Use this to install CWM recovery and copy custom ROM zip file to sd card. After that reboot your phone and tap screen several times until it goes to CWM. Then go to Install update zip from sd card and find it. Press on it, it will ask you to confirm your choice and after flashing ROM do full wipe. Of course make NAND backup before.
my rom was xginv5.0 before now i sucessfully installed gingerdxv10 it gives me CWM then i try to install gingerdxv19 and its sucess to installed but my problem is from xgin5.0 to gingerdxv10 up to gingerdxv19 the interface of my phone doesnt change just the startup only change what is wrong?

You have to partition your SD card (gparted/ubuntu...)
1st: fat32 put the rom-zip into the root of this partition
2nd: ext4 1GB
3rd: ext4 400MB
4th: linux swap
Install CWR via MAGLDR like flashing a NAND rom (DAF etc...)
reboot, enter MAGLDR and goto boot AD SD - now U enter CWR
and then follow the steps as mentioned in the rom thread. (chose ZIP dfrom SD card... install... reboot...)
Good luck
It´s quite easy.
The above post will work UNLESS you use one of the cwm 1.3 partitions. Using cwm 1.3 puts the recovery files on NAND (so no need to copy files to the root of your sd card for recovery to work. In order to boot into Recovery you need to select AD Recovery instead of Boot AD SD

Guys, need your help.. so, a member of this forum it's trying to install a custom rom on his phone.. he have root, xrecovery and it seems the files are in the right place but when he tries to install a update.zip (MiniCm in this case) or do a restore with always gets an error.. I think it's because the busybox, but he reflashed his phone again and still doesn't work..
Any suggestion? Thanks..

i cant post directly into the thread.
sorry if i missed it but i am unsure how i should install these files??
do i use xrecovery?
Yes you should use xrecovery
install the Rom and flash it with xrecovery , if the Rom file you downloaded is. Zip (not . Rar) go to xrecovry install custom zip and chose the file. Zip if the file. Rar unrar it and put it in backup file in xrecovery and then go to xrecovery menu select backup and restore choose restore, select the file you have put it there, when finish reboot the phone
Hope I helped

I guess there is no way that you can install custom ROM without xrecovery, I hope my guess are rigth
Anyway, you can get xrecovery from here.. if you don't have one

What ever you do, DON'T use ROM Manager to install CWM recovery.
-Now use RecoveryInstaller to install CWM recovery.
-If you want to save data use Titanium Backup or similar app
-Download the ROM file you want to use and put it on the micro sd card
-Boot into CWM recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache
- Choose "Install from zip file"
- "Choose zip file from sd card"
- Select the zip of the ROM file
- Choose Yes to install your ROM file
-After the flashing process is done, Reboot
-Enjoy

Hi,
my A500 has got the stock ICS. I've also managed to root it. Only the stock recovery is still installed. I have no idea how I can install the ClockworkMod there. Or may I naively install ClockworkModRecovery via the Acer Recovery installer? -> Maybe someone can answer that.
My main concern is something else. In the stock ICS image the AcerRing is missing. But the custom image FLEXREAPER has this on board and also offers a variety of ZIPs for customisation the Acer ring (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517181).
Can I use the stock recovery to install the AcerRing? E.G. I rename the FLEXREAPER-R5-STOCK-RING.zip file to "update.zip" and copy it into the root directory of my SD card? Then simply using keys (which were the keys? Power+"Vol-"?) and boot into stock recovery mode and then the system installs the AcerRing automatically?
Thank you for your answers.
Install CWM via Acer Recovery Installer program.
Put ROM of choice on external SD
Boot into recovery via Power+Volume (closest to power button). This will put you into CWM Recovery
Goto Wipe menu and wipe data, cache and Dalvik cache
After wipes, choose "install from zip"
Install zip from external sd
Navigate to rom.zip
Install rom
Reboot and enjoy.

I don't think it is enough to flash a mod. A mod just changes colours and styles etc.
You need to install complete Flexreaper Rom to get it work.

AcerRecoveryInstaller warns me, that I have a not supported rom installed. It's the stock rom. Can I ignore this warning and install CWM Recovery?
I want to let this stock rom installed. I just want to install or uninstall system apps etc. or rather as I mentioned above to install the AcerRing.

The zip contains the AcerRing.apk and some META-INF directory. So I think it isnot only a mod of this app. I try to install the extracted apk but it was not successful.

Ok, I think you are right. The zip also contains update-scripts with paths-strings to Flexreaper paths etc. :-(
Just flash flexreaper. Its awesome. I personally don't use the ring though. But the mods are nice
Thank you all for your answers
