      Thanks Jayesh. CWM you have me it works.
      But Jelly Bean do not install, an Status7 error occurs.
      Maybe we still have to wait for a working Jelly bean for 6802.

    I have failed trying to install CWMR first, by using the above link for CWMR for Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus.
    Maybe CWMR shall be different for 6802, but i cant find it anywhere.
    Can you please detail a little bit about CWMR files and installation method for 6802?
    Thank you so much.
    Adrian
