Just did this a couple of minutes ago and it worked! Now to install OCLF. Thanks.
Rogers finally released 2.2? Hmph. No matter, I'm enjoying darky's 8.0 extensively on mine. Eclair took the z4root easy enough.

Also try VISIONary from the Market and let us know if that works on the N1 2.2.1. I have a hunch it might, but I'm already rooted.

so that means that i cant root it with universal android root?
No. SuperOneClick, or one of the other options...

I just confirmed myself, VISIONary from the Market roots 2.2.1 on-device. Have fun!
Is root with VISIONary permanent, or do you have to run it every time the phone is rebooted?
Try it, and report back...

Seems like r10 VISIONary (currently on the market) perm-roots the N1. At least I get "already rooted" whenever I run it even after storage wipe and reboot. I personally wanted only temp-root.
Please don't spam threads. There is already a Superuser zip file from ChainsDD which is quite well-used and well-documented. And this thread was from over a year ago and was about a completely different topic.
Hi noob here. I rooted my fone after i updated to 2.2. Everything was fine then i updated again to 2.2.1 now my fone will not root anymore. Any suggestions?
Rooted originally with z4root. Uk on o2 network.

Superoneclick is the method I used that worked. It's an app on your computer that u run

z4root is so convenient and easy to use but unfortunately doesn't work on all firmwares. In my experience, you have 2 options:
1) Use SuperOneClick. It's a desktop app and has worked for me on all firmwares that z4root doesn't. The disadvantage here is that your recovery still won't allow you to run unsigned update.zip files.

2) Install a custom kernel that includes root, 2e recovery and other features. There's a bunch in the dev forum but here are 2 examples:

Ok so i tried both and still not working . Just spent an hour searching tinterweb and the talk is that there isnt a root yet for the 2.2.1 jpy update. Is this true?

Hrmm. I haven't seen that although I've not read up on JPY. I understood that JPY was (VERY) similar (or the same) as JPU and I know SuperOneClick works with JPU. Check the oneclick thread for updates on JPY.
i have root on jpy, you can get it by flashing cfroot as PDA..
or flash hardcore kernel as PDA and use simple root + bu on the recovery menu..
it should work.. it did by me
I shall give it another try and will post result. Thanks everyone

Agreed. Flash a kernel with root already enabled.
Took a few goes but managed to get superoneclick to root fone. Thanks very much

Great, enjoy your rooted phone!
Has anyone found out how to root the official release from ATT without having to flash? Before I upgraded I had my phone rooted by simply dropping a ZIP file in the sd file root and reinstalling all packages thus installing it. Is there a way similar to this for the new release?

No worries. I just did the linked modified 3e recovery last night & it worked like a charm. Try SuperOneClick for rooting, as that worked perfectly the 1st time for me as well (running stock, rooted KB1): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Good luck!
I tried that but couldn't get it to work but I think its because I have no internet for my computer..

Superoneclick works alright. I've heard it doesn't root official KB1 yet. I could be wrong Cuz I think the official KB1 is garbage. If you want KB1 then flash cognition.
Sent from my Captivate using XDA Premium
No, I've heard that SuperOneClick is pretty much the "only" way it'll root the official 2.2 KB1.
Ok, I upgraded with kies, and got kb1( uckb1), and I rooted with superoneclick (1.7). No problem at all, but I did use a computer running windows 7.
About ji6. There is now an Odin for UCJI6 (i think it is one click, but not sure). I found the link somewhere in the forum,i don't have it handy.
If I find link, will post.

Yeap, you should be fine to use any of these ODIN files.
2.1 - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SBSMALFJ
2.2 - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QL6NX702
If you need instructions, just yell again
I would probably recommend the 2.2 one (if you're not going to flash any custom ROMs).
If you are thinking of custom ROMs, then I recommend going to 2.1.

Many thanks to Venomio for these links. He supplied them to me in the course of another problem I had.
Hah funny story
so here is a funny story,
so I flashed using odin back to jf6 and then used kies mini to get to kb1, but halfway through the upgrading process the kies mini force closed and my phone was semi-bricked. I sent it into samsung. it came back, same cosmetic wear, ENTIRE inside of the phone was replaced
Wow. What build number is your Cappy now then?
They sent me one with kb1

What ROM are you running? Anything 2.2 or below can be rooted with super one click but newer ROMs need other methods. If it is a gingerbread ROM (2.3) then there is a thread in development about how to root.
Yes it's 2.3.5

if the computer is recognising your device there should be no error while rooting with soc rooting gb takes much more time than froyo
if you can use odin then you can flash corn kernel which have a cwm recovery and that recovery can also root your device (not all cwm recovery root device)
corn kernel v7.06 link odin flashable:- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10453685/android/CornKernel_UCKK4_v706.tar

Just do the kernel flash. It's easy and takes five minutes.

My try at it.
tried soc (v2.3.3.0) rooting gb. soc sees my phone gets to step 7 and hangs. I let it run for up to 30 minutes.
anyone else see this or have any suggestions?

if you have installed the drivers on that time then restart the computer and device completely then connect and try again it will not hang also you can flash corn kernel through Odin read my fifth post on this thread

wrong... I used superoneclick root yesterday. works fine. and takes 2 minutes. faster than your kernel swap.
but you know what? you would be right if you ran the old froyo version on gingerbread... imagine that when gingerbread came out, they updated the tool...
