Hi guys,
When i was on 2.1 i used OCLF to root and lag fix my phone.
I have just updated to JPM but now the OCLF wont work and says it is only available for 2.1
I have the latest version installed as far as i know.
Is there another way of doing this or a OCLF out thats not in the market place that i need to download.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Read the following thread (#1 post) carefully and you'll be able to root your phone.
huh? Was there supposed to be a link dude?
I'm sorry, haha. Here's the link:

Thanks a lot =D

Hello!
I just updated my Galaxy S to the official 2.2 Froyo JP6 through Kies (by changing the registry-values). After that, I did factory reset and the phone runs nice and smooth now.
I'm a bit of a n00b when it comes to the more 'advanced' stuff though, so I was wondering what would be the easiest way to root my phone now.
I did it with 2.1 by using OCLF, and that was a piece of cake. But that doesn't work anymore.
Can someone help me out here?
That would be much appreciated.

I found SuperOneClick v1.4 a quite straightforward option: /showthread.php?t=803682 (sorry, can't post links).
The old OneClickRoot didn't work with JP6 Nordic version and flashing a Kernel doesn't amuse me.
First post pointed me straight to the solution. Thanks a bunch!

I have to ask, because it really is in front of your eyes... what the heck did you search for?
When I searched for Captivate JI6 2.2 root I got this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797397
Which is exactly what I knew I would get. Try searching a little harder and using the correct terms. I promise you that you'll find your answer. Good luck with your rooting!

I did but I didn't understand it and I have the leaked 2.2 for captivate and some tell me how to root in a easier easy so I can understand
That is your easiest method on the leak 2. 2. Start reading, this will be a good learning experience. I would suggest searching odin and flashing back to stock Rom. then flash a 2. 2 Rom that is already rooted like cognition.
Either way do not do anymore unless you have read enough to understand where you will end up
Captivate
Cog 2.2

I also have to ask... Did you read the thread? The top of the FIRST post has a link to a ONE-CLICK-ROOT. (this is a link, you click on this with your mouse.)
It does not get any easier then that.
I have Rooted 2.2 I used super one click I believe its called. Try googleing that.

Wow this is the first time I hear the 2.2.1 firmware is official, because you say you have it on a new Galaxy..
Anyway, on my JPY I used superoneclick and it worked like magic.
Just search this forum for SuperOneClick, and follow the instructions in the author's thread.
I just downloaded program, put my phone in USB debug mode, connected phone, launched SUperOneClick, pressed Root button, and that was about it...

u use odin? try using hardcore's kernel K12A. Flash it with odin, and go into recovery. One of the option is to install superuser (root).
Er, just curious, what's your build prop? Can let us know?
Yep. got my phone today from virgin and I can't root it either!
Just ran benchmark score @ 1232

Actually, it was only 26 minutes.
Hello,
I would like to try flashing my rogers captivate to ICS. Nothing fancy just a astable bug free ICS. However I am on 2.3.3. I updated through KIES a while back and now I have no idea how to root my phone or install roms. I am afraid the last time I looked into this everything was very different. I have read the forums but am still a little anxious.
Is it possible to root and then install CWM or something to install roms from my current 2.3.3 version? If so how may I do it?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Christopher
By reading all the stickies and reading some more info, you will be a genius at this stuff by the time you're done...
Yeah thats what I am kinda trying to avoid. I have to hack and read so much already it gets really tiring having to keep up with it all. Add to this work and school and its like info overload. I was hoping there might be an easier way than earning another mini phone phD. Thus far I have determined I have to change my kernel... I think? My phone is unrooted. Stock 2.1 to 2.3.3 KIES.
This Site is mentioned for developing. That being said for the rest of us, we are supposed to learn. The reason it's important to read and understand is you can potentially kill your phone.
