[Q] How to root Galaxy S GT-i9000T? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone been able to root Galaxy S GT-i9000T? I've tried all the methods for i9000 International version and it doesn't work. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

you need to update and edit the update.zip for rooting
to include your new model
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728754

I just tried to edit the update.zip more specific the updater-script and created the update.zip again with an update.zip manger that i found on the forum. But i get an installation aborted error in recovery mode. I think my phone is branded or had one of those root protected firmwares. In the post you added they talked about reflashing to a recognized rooted firmware, but i dont know because my model is different
Any advice?

the new update.zip needs to be signed
follow the instruction on the Dev topic to do the signing

I am from Argentina and I have a i9000t
which has 850mhz band
you have to flash I9000UGJH2

Web:http://www.samsungfirmwareworld.com
which is the latest firmware update for Canada
then you can flash I9000XXJPC Froyo 2.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769400
But this step does not select the CSC
changing our band 850mhz 3g
thus said the fastest
and tried almost all firmwares that are in the web
It is not yet available for us CSC JPH SIN 850mhz
IMPORTANT CHECK BEFORE YOU NOTHING WORKS THE COMBINATION OF 3 KEYS
DOWNLOADIN MODE
RECOVERY MODE
Greetings friend, hopefully this will clarify your doubts
Edit:Then you can root and lagfix with any method

I rooted my SGS I9000T yesterday. I used 7zip to edit the update.zip file in an ubuntu desktop and voila. i really don't know if Linux made some difference but, I do the same thing I was doing in my win 7 machine.
Thanks for your help, now I'll enjoy all the benefits of been root.
Here is the update.zip file for this model I9000T , I hope help other users with this.

Many thanks for this, I have been struggling since I got my galaxy last week. "and what Galaxy do YOU have?" so many versions of the same phone......
We just got them in Bermuda last week and I thought it would have been an unlocked international version.......oh well, it is unlocked but not to North America.
Next question would be 2.2 and should I even try..........yet.........or wait.
Thanks again
Just completed the speed test and over 2000 now!

Hey Zettai!
I've used your file, it seems that worked fine, now, before i do anything else, how can i verify that it is "well" rooted?
In google i found that u can check using:
adb.exe shell
$su
But i get:
Permission denied :-(
UPDATE:
Nevermind, it works ;-)
I can be root in the device!

Help Please

I have a Bell Galaxy S running docmod"s rom. All of a sudden my phone shut off and now will only display the white "Galaxy S GT-I9000M" screen in a continuous two second loop. I can get into download mode and have tried using odin to restore Bell's firmware but it doesn't correct the problem. I've also tried searching and haven't come across anything to help. Is there anything I can do or is it bricked?

[Q] Help - How to root Samsung Note KL3 (Singapore Starhub)

Hi there
Yes I know there are articles about this (damn long articles with strange terms). And I have read through a lot posts about how to root Samsung Galaxy Note - there seems to be 1001 ways to do it but none of them worked on my model KL3 (purchased from Starhub in Singapore)
-> Tried one-click root method - doesnt work anymore for KL3
-> Tried odin method, can't find the place to download the revised ROM (just wondering why will the author still post the URL that is invalid?)
So please anyone out there, if you have done any successful root on KL3, please let me know how you did it.
I am willing to pay you some $$ to get the no-nonsense answer - I have wasted 1 day digging around and I don't want to waste more time.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=864276&stc=1&d=1327042915

First downgrade your firmware, then Root it. after applying Root, you can back to Singapore KL3 or watever new ROM you desire, by using CWM or Mobile Odin
Hi sorry to hijack yr thread OP,but i am also from Singapore.i bought a set from singtel.
my firmware are as follow:
PDA:N7000DXKL3
PHONE:N7000DXKL2
CSC:N7000OLBKL2
Baseband:N7000DXKL2
Kernel:2.6.35.7-N7000DXKL3-CL825081 [email protected]#2
i am confused on which one to look at as both pda and phone has different KL version..so which one should i be looking at for rooting purposes and can my current fw be rooted directly?
Look at kernel version. You are on KL3.
Follow dr.ketan's post above.
thanks for replies.
what puzzles me is that,i read dr.ketan's pdf guide and found that N7000DXKL3 is direct rootable.have u tried and it failed?

Actually xxkl3 was released early that was direct rootable, but some newer version released under kl3 are not rootable
Actuallt kl* are non rootable, except some early kl3. So you shud try to root it directly, if not success you should consider it as non rootable.

Mmm.
I m from singapore also.
I can tell u, i don't care which version i am.
Normally i will just download the newest version from www.sammobile.com and flash through odin, and on ICS, if i loose my root, i will use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794. To get my root back. Easy and fast.
Ps: i never do full wipe on ics, i tried once and brick my device.

Did you even read the sticky? If its still no rooted, try flashing a new stock rom via Odin and try rooting it again using the method mentioned in the sticky. Just in case you didn't understand what I'm rambling about here...the magic word of the day for you is.... 'STICKY'.
????????
No idea what u r rambling about .... no idea what u mean by STICKY, but i am new to the mobile chatter.
but i read the instructions yes .... and they seem to work with some phones and not with others ...
they do not work with mine and that's why i asked was there any root instructions that will work on 2.3.4 galaxy ace (DDKQ3) ...
so far, NO ONE has said YES.
Sticky means the sticky thread at the top of the galaxy ace forum. It has phone specific tutorials.

Wow how unhelpful are you
I also have galaxy ace on 2.3.4 purchased in late march. The current methods for rooting don't seem to work anymore. The person who started the thread and myself would like some helpful advice from some1 who knows something about how this stuff work. Cause we don't and that's why we post!
Flash the attachments, and you've got root access. I've been using them for 2.3.4 as well as 2.3.6. Works like a charm.
Oh, and BTW, these are from the STICKY thread!
EDIT: I take you know what FLASHING means?! If not then go learn that first before you go any further.And use the SEARCH option. It's not there for baking biscuits!
I have tried to flash:
AceGingerRoot.zip
Root.zip
Universal_GB_ROOT.zip
Update.zip
upd_1.zip
None of these actually work. The root.zip you recommend comes up with an error the aborts.
I have S5830T and I just purchased this last month so things may have changed since you rooted your device. I'll try recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip after I research what it actually does (OMG - Yes I'll use the STICKY).
I hope you realise that if it waas as simple as flashing the root.zip that we would not actually need to post and ask for help!

Well, if Flashing doesn't work try to push all the stuff using ADB. It never fails. And that root.zip, I've been using it since day 1 and still use it whenever I flash to stock using ODIN. Never stopped working for Me. Try the ADB method, and report back. Let's hope for the best.And if possible post the log of the error which you get during Recovery flash.

- It is meant for noobs but it doesn't explain the process of rooting, flashing with ODIN or CMW in any detail (it just says do it!)

I just tried UNIVERSAL_GB_ROOT_V11 because the one I tried was V10
It didn't work, however I noticed that when I boot into recovery I get the error
"applying Multi CSC Can't access to '/system/csc/TLP/system"
before I even run the root file!
I think this means I have to flash back to stock!
If so can you point me in the right direction for a ROM (I already have ODIN)

There is plenty of info and guides for you on site, Stop been lazy and impatient, Go and do some research and search forums instead of expecting somebody to bring the info to you.
You will learn more and retain the info if you put some work into it and read.
go download unlockroot - http://www.unlockroot.com/
make sure you set your device to Enable USB Debugging.
Press Root from the program and wait for the magic to happen.

What is wrong with you!!! Are you frustrated or do you have a huge complex and didn’t mammy give you enough attention??? You can’t wait to put people down are you, he is asking a question and did it very polite he tried it with several solutions and it did not work so he tried, it is absolutely not necessary to say that he is lazy and impatient, your here a long time and all i read from you is bashing people, why don’t you just shut up if you are not helping people and leave it to people that have no problem answering such a question, nobody is waiting for your stupid remarks. You ATHEiST are an idiot and do not belong in a forum!
You can also go for the CFROOT. OR use the overcome method by teamovercome. You just need to put your tab in download mode, and get the necessary files from TEAMOVERCOME. Although, when you do this, you will get a customer ROM installed, the overcome 7 v4.1.0 running on android 2.3.6 fully rooted.
2.3.6 root info
tried many methods, here're my results, hope this helps...
going from gb 2.3.3 rooted with cf root ...to 2.3.6 with cf root.
(all firmware from "check fus 2.1")
uk(02)...JQ8 -not easy!
eventual success, method mentioned in last page of linkost #342
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885734&highlight=tab+cwm3
Poland play... JQ9 -easy!!
used pc version 'odin3 v1.7' to flash firmware, then again to flash 'cf root kernel' (same one as in the above 'xda' link).
result -all good
tried using mobile odin pro first but had probs.
if all else fails, you could try, team overcome's custom rom, i tried that too but didn't like their version of cwm, so was determined to get chainfire's original working.

Hi jaynjolie
Enter here search the download page and download UPK 3.7
inside that zip file you will find BlackJack then follow the instruccions to root your phone, it's really easy
Afaik blackjack doesn't work on GB firmware
FDN
do it work or not please? can someone verify this phone and be rooted and still work with koodo Canada provider? thank you
fw version doesn't matter, and blackjack won't work. you have to flash binary files with smartflash. later, you can easily update your apn config file with this. but before all, be sure that you've tried all known methodds correctly (superoneclick, unlockroot, esteem...)

Apn for koodo
Apn = sp.koodo.com
Proxy = 74.49.0.18
Port = 80
I have the koodo fw in bin/fls format with cwm already injected so you'd just have to use smartflash to get it on your phone, then reboot into recovery and flash superuser to gain root access. Let me know or try the cwm inject method yourself. You can get the koodo branded fw at http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1

sure would love to have that firmware ..would you provide the link or you can pm me if you don't prefer to upload it ? and do i need to enter the apn myself or is it not needed on your firmware? thanks
smartflash will erase everything, so backup all saveable things. CWM will let you to do backups after having flashed. A specific branded fw is not necessary, unless if it's your aim. this way you'll avoid additional apps included by the operator, but they're also downloadable on store maybe ?
erasing eveverything isnt a big deal ..my phone is a week old and only a few contacts to add ...im not concerned about that... i just want to install the best firmware compatable with my device with the cwm already added so i can flash it with smartflash ..so it is easier for me ...im very new to phone modification ..but im not bad with computers...what FW is recommended .....thanks for your responses

i see the v20o patched says deu ..will that still work with a canadIAN PROVIDER and its injected with touch my phone is p970g
?thanks for your help
no problem, it's only the default language of the fw. it should detect your network's language and switch automatically at first boot when the wizard is launched. if not, just change it in settings.

All's great love my new phone. Thanks everyone for their help for my rooted phone

I had the same issue with my telus p970. When i reflash stock telus fw I have perfect signal no idea why and no one seems to have an answer
