use odin, it's easier
1. download odin http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47601401/ODIN___An...S_for_I8150.rar
2. download recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ancora.tar.md5 http://www.mediafire.com/?c9diay46cfllu3i
3. Select the ops file, and enable one package in options, then load the md5 file with the One Package button

4. boot into download mode and connect usb cable
5. click start to flash. don't disconnect the usb, wait until it reboot successfuly

Download mode is Recovery mode right? So when go into recovery mode put in the usb cable and press start?

no, download mode is vol down + home + power button

I've started it . IT rebooted and It still shows RESET on odin without anything hapenning . Is this normal ?

it's normal

It shows pass already . So how do i backup everything in my phone now before i go to custom roms?

So its more towards hardware. Hmmm...

reboot into clockworkmod recovery

How to navigate in menus:
Volume buttons = go up and down
Home button = select
Power button = go back

choose backup and restore

So Clockworkmod recovery is by holding Power + Home and volume up , right?

Thanks for helping me all this while bro Appreciate it

yes. you can also go to app drawer and launch cwm. there's an option to reboot into cwm recovery

I am in! Press backup and restore then got alot choices. I chose backup. Is that the correct one? Sorry for asking so many questions

yes, it's correct. happy flashing

Delete all installation files. Redownload kies with your antivirus/firewall turn off.

Try using another browser then the current one you have to redownload. Make sure download from Samsung direct.
