    1. Hi Jackson.....
      I was just going through this article and saw your problem. Actually I had faced this problem too and had to leave my phone for 3 months...... Accidentally though, but yes, I found a solution.
      1.) Install the specific drivers from the net for the galaxy ace gt-s5830i.
      2.)When you have your phone connected through the usb cable, then remove the back cover and remove the battery........Yup...That's weird but this the actual and working solution.Go On!
