A quick and easy root method is available on youtube, just do a search for: "How to root Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (Easiest safest method)" you find a video and a link to the file you need to perform the root. (Video is by tech0StickyAsGlue)
Cheers!

today, I think u should upgraded your rom to zsjpd first, this is the offical firmware . You upgrade through Kies by Samsung.
Then use univerisal lagfix 0.4 version with 340 Mb to perform root ,lagfix and your phone will fly like a ro rocket!!!

Thank you for the info Rainbow. Will definitely try that out.
Cheers!

I think you can just flash any of the JPM/JP0 custom Kernels out there as your rom is based on them kernels anyways. I recommend YA-OK/ZENKINS kernel.

Thank you for the info. How's the battery life on these ROMS using the Ya OK kernel?

[Q] Q: How to root my new SGS 2.2

Hi everyone I have seached the forum and found some threats on this subject, but nothing that helped me.

I have tried One Click Root from XDA and z4root.
The One Click Root gives me the Verification error and the z4root just stalls..
Please help me. I want to apply lagfix and custom roms.

*facepalm*
you didn't read enough. There is TONS of info on how to root the Galaxy S.
First of all i suggest you change upgrade to a more recent ROM, such as JPY. Go to the General Section and a thread for JPY will be there, you can get Odin in that thread too or from the link in my sig. To root, all you need is Odin v1.7 and CF-Root, the thread is here: [21.12.2010][CF-Root v1.3] JPH/K/6/M/A/O/U/X/Y - su+busybox+2e, CWM compat!
You can't have 3e Recovery, CF-root will give you 2e.
OR you could simply flash a custom ROM and you'll have root pre-installed.

I saw that thread but i dont know witch file to download whit my fw specifications
Jess

It doesn't matter what firmware you have before, the only thing that does matter is the CSC, which contains countries' specific provider APN's etc, but it'll have the EU CSC so you should be fine. Get Odin v1.7 and flash JPY over, and then you can flash CF-Root or a Kernel like Hardcore's, to get Clockworkmod as well, in order to flash a custom ROM.

So as it is now i just use odin and flash lets say DocRom XXJPX ?

Would be better to flash stock JPY, use CF-Root and then flash Doc/Darky ROM.

Can you point me a link for such fw? The one that fit my current fw.

Guy don't flash the JPY if you want to use GPS. After I flashed it on my German Galaxy S. It takes hours to fix the GPS and then you just get an accuracy (do I write it right?) of around 100 meters. Better use the JPX with JPA WiFi drivers.

Lets see if we can complicate this further for this poor guy.
An easier approach if you don't want to touch your firmware is to flash a modified kernel. For example SpeedMod will give you root as well as other goodies (2e recovery, clockwork recovery, etc).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822756
Download and flash it using ODIN (put the file into the PDA box).

This was what i was lookning for and after i have done this i can use costom roms with clockwork?

After I upgraded my Froyo 2.2 from JPA to FROYO.DXJPE I9000DXJPB I couldnt root using z4root at all. What can I do? The upgrade fixed my GPS problems tho. But my SGS Lags now. Help please. It also says my Recovery is 3e.

Want to jump in too...
I'm also interested in Darky's but did a fine job bricking my phone recently when I tried to flash to another firmware. So I need something like an idiot's/tech bimbo's guide...
My phone is the I-9000 international, running on official froyo 2.2, not rooted. Can someone kindly spell out the steps of exactly what I need to do? I came across many sites with incomplete information or even conflicting sequences when using Odin, so I'm a little paranoid about bricking my phone again. TIA.

[Q] Help in unrooting!

I just bought a SGS recently and these are the Settings
BASEBAND VERSION : I9000XXJPK
KERNEL VERSION : 2.6.32.9 root SE-S608 #1
BUILD NUMBER : FROYO.BOJP7
I am a total noob when it comes to rooting! This is the first smartphone ive bought!
Can you please tell me how to unroot this and install a faster version, because my phone lags a lot!
I would appreciate it if you could please explain it in steps as i have no clue what im doing!

Hello,
If you didn't install a lagfix, you do not need to unroot before flashing a new firmware.
I suggest you to make your own rom with romkitchen based on JS5 and hardcore's speedmod kernel.
You will need to flash hardcore's kernel first with odin (only the kernel) to get recovery 2e and CWM.

Not sure if your phone is actually rooted but anyway even if it is it shouldn't matter, unless you have a lagfix applied. If so undo lagfix and then flash to another firmware.
There a a few ways to installing new firware. One is through kies and using kies registry patcher. This allows you to fake your region allowing you to flash to firmware updates that may not be available to you. Good choice is to update to a euro 2.2.1
I prefer to flash manually using Odin to a firmware of my choice. Just go to samfirmware.com snd once in the galaxy s firmware section you willfind all the files you need. Just be sure to read the instructions on the page as well.
Flashing the phone with custom firmware is another. For that you use clockworkmod recovery which you can install with rom manager from the market (need to be rooted first and have 2e recovery) or by flashing a kernal like speedmod using odin.

That kernel is the default one. The root bit often throws.people off. As the previous post said look for the app super user or better still download an app that requires root access like titanium.backup and try using it. If u can't use it then you have not been rooted

I think you mean ROOTING your SGS, not unrooting?
Anyway read that before starting any tweak : -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810686

Your phone is not rooted. Search this forum for Darky's resurection edition and read, think, then read again. And don't forget to read.
Further more, check your 3-button combo's and make sure to have your /EFS backed up.

[Q] revert stock recovery question

Hi,
I kinda have a problem. I'm with Bell and I bought a Galaxy S Ti-9000 unlock and I don't know why but my phone was not able to have phone service but I found a way to flash the root the stock samsung 2.3 and flash clockwork for the recovery but still I did have any phone service so I found the thread on XDA with the Bell stock rom for 2.2 build number UGJK3 and flash it with Odin3 and Voila I had phone service lol but the thing is that I can't install back Clockwork because of the samsung recovery 3e. I found this thread on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108 but there is not the build for my phone so does this mean that I'm screwed or there is a way to flash it. I tried to search on google but couldn't find anything.
Thanks for your anwsers.

You need some version < 2.4 as stated on page #1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108).
I'd guess that CF-Root-JPJPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1 is the best choice. But to be honest I don't know if this will work.
Over here: http://www.android.net/forum/samsung-captivate/58043-rom-dorians-ugjk3-2-2-gingerbread-edition.html someone made a rom with a hardcore kernel. So that kernel might help as well: http://www.hotfilesearch.com/speedmod-kernel-k12t-500hz-zip.html

Yeah I know that there is some Rom but the only way that I can install a rom is with Odin3 and I need to have a .tar file don't think that zip file work zip file its when you have CWM installed for your recovery. that is why I need to install one of the file to be able to use CWM to be able to flash these roms. I have rom manager installed but can't install CWM because the stock rom that I installed had the recovery 3e that not let you install CWM

This rom has K12T included. So you can try to flash only that kernel.

I just found that http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2010/11/samsung-galaxy-s-download-speedmod.html
List of Kernel for Galaxy S for Bell and international galaxy S
I have flash it with Odin3 and I have now CWM
And btw thanks Jens because I didn't know about those kernel so I search on google for that for be able to flash it with Odin3

[Q] Reverting back to stock.

Hello,
Recently I updated to doc's mod v11.1, but I want to revert my phone back to stock (just to learn). I want it to be exactly the same as when I received it. I bought my phone on december 2010 so I guess I'll need the Froyo 2.2.1 firmware. Some information:
It needs the European firmware including dutch language.
I need to revert CWM recovery again to stock recovery 2e/3e.
Anyone got some information on this and can give me the required information, because I am having trouble finding it. Like where to find the firmware (I read about samfirmware, but I can't find the appropiate firmware ;/) Thanks in advance!

Tbh information without the files is welcome too. All information is welcome since it can broaden my search. Thanks again

I've got stock kernel in my backups pile... can upload and then you can use it with GS kernel flasher. Can do it preferably by Dropbox.
As for un-rooting (if you want to lol) check out OneClickRoot or something like that by Shortfuse

Hi
Hey bro i read ur thread,, here i have a link to a video from youtube it says step by step how to do it,, ive done it also a few times. you have to make an account to the link that the video points.

It depends on which one you want , if you want to go to Froyo then u can choose just the modem u were at, otherwise u can just do the latest European Gingerbread

I have no clue which modem I was on... This is more of a test if my phone ever breaks down I can flash it back to custom and send it in for warranty so... wouldn't really matter ^^ If I flash Froyo or Gingerbread right now I guess... the method is the same just a different file. Anyways what modem do you suggest?

aha okee,, well I use now the latest Gingerbread, it's very fast and stable... and it's officially released in the Netherlands, so you can flash that one

Alright thanks can you provide me with a link since I don't want to flash the wrong image :x. Thanks for all your help!

Alright thanks. But the guide says I need 3 files... a CSC, PHONE and PDA. I can only find 1 file.. do I need to flash that one without the repartition checked?

hmm, you can flash back to 2.2.1 or JVB that has three files with 512 pit file and repartition, and then after that 2.3.3 jvh without re partition..

it has three files, flash it with 512 pit file plus repartition.

Alright thanks a lot! This just leaves one question will this also turn my ClockWorkMod in to recovery 2e? Or do I still need to do it manually?
