Rooting Galaxy S 2.2

My Galaxy S was On 2.1 with root and lagfix. im now on froyo running as it comes, wanna root and lag fix, oclf wont root it need another way of doing it. any help?

try universal lagfix kernel, it has root and all you need included.

yeah, there is this wild thing search. look in it for cfroot

If you don't want to try experimental kernels like the one mentioned above, then search for ChainFire's root kernel.
It's tried, tested and stable

lagfix

hey everybody.
i want to set up voodoo 5 pre6 on my sgs. i want to use the alternative installation method like it is described on voodoos website since it seems a lot easier. (i wanted to post the link but i'm not allowed to...)
now i notice that i've got the 3e recovery. does that mean i can't use the alternative installation method (probably) and i have to use the "normal" method?
is this lagfix working on the official froyo release? i have jpp/jpo.
do i need root?
do you know when oclf will work with froyo? because i suppose that is the most easiest way.
thanks.

Oclf works with Froyo now, but it needs 2e recovery. Is there any disadvantage to change to 2e?

Which root for FROYO.DTJP5 PDA:JP5 PHONE:JP3 CSC:JP4 Australia Optus (using on Three)

People in Australia are of course happy with the release of Froyo.
Did my updates etc. Now I got 2.2 running and want to know how to root this. I see there are some one-click apps and programs out there. But which one would be best for my
FROYO.DTJP5
PDA:JP5 / PHONE:JP3 / CSC:JP4
????
(more details of my version in signature below)
Next, I would like to know how to change the boot animation?
and did someone get call recording working (as in the Korean version)?

Do you have 3 button combo working? If you do its probably easier to flash new kernel that has root in it plus it will have lagfix options or better still install new jpu 2.2.1 fast as hell and no need to lagfix.

Thanks, you are the 2nd person to suggest JPU 2.2.1. I will look into that. However, I read it will not recognize Kies anymore. Before, as most I hated Kies. But with the new Froyo update it finally works and syncs even the Outlook pictures. I still dont know what the lags entails, and what the benefits are of JPU 2.2.1. So would be glad to hear more about the differences.
For the reader. I was able to use z4root. The installation of z4root didnt go correctly. But it was there after a restart and root was succesful.

I used z4mod for my DTJP5, and it's working fine.
VeenK, did you upgrade via kies or odin?

[Q] How to undo froyo 2.2 upgrade

Hi everyone,
I have upgraded my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 from Eclair 2.1 to Froyo 2.2 via Samsung Kies. I have used Ryan's Z4root to root it which was success. Everything was fine until here. When I tried to fix the lag using the update.zip, it failed saying 'file verification failed' (somthing of this sort). I chekced on different forums and found that there isn't any update.zip file to fix lag on 2.2 (am I right?).
If there is one, could someone point me in that direction. If there isn't, how can I undo 2.2 and rollback to 2.1 so that I can root it and fix the lag.
Please ask if you need any further details regarding my phone or the process I used to root and fix the lag.
Thanks in advance.

Superoneclick worked for me on 2.2 and 2.2.1 if you just need to root the phone.

Thanks for your reply but I have already rooted my 2.2. What I am looking is for a lag fix solution on my 2.2 or rolling back to 2.1 where there are loads of easy lag fix solutions.

head over to the android dev subforum, look for any of the lagfix kernels.
Alternatively use cf-root which will allow you to use 2e recovery and thereby apply your update.zip

Do you know which 2.2 firmware you flashed? Was it jk3 or jk4? This sounds like a recovery version issue and not all solutions support every version of firmware.

Ryan's Z4root to root
+ Ryans OCLF for lag fix works for me .

Any lagfix that can be installed as an app should be ok. You'll still be prevented from applying anything via the update.zip method until you resolve the recovery "issue".

My current 2.2 firmware is JP3. This is what is showing after I updated to 2.2 via Kies.

Yes!!!
Ryan's Root and OCLF worked for me aswell.
Rooting worked fine on the first go but lag fix resulted in a black screen on my galaxy. As I had an external SD card in my phone, I removed it out and ran the lag fix again. It worked this time!!!

[Q] which lagfix can i use

[SIZE="2"Hi, i am in uk running stock froyo 2.2, I have rooted my phone using Z4root, but I want to put a lagfix on, I have read that OCLF isnt very good anymore, and voodoo you have to install a new rom and im not brave enough to do anything like that so which is the best lagfix i can use and i have heard about overclocking what does that mean? thanks in advance Karen][/SIZE]
