Yep it does.
hi I successfully rooted XWJV1 using CF root and odin and I realize I doesn't revert 3e recovery to 2e... so my question is how do I apply a "lagfix"?
voodoo cannot be installed via update.zip (unsigned) and I'm not sure what are the effects of flashing the voodoo 3.0 odin package.. does it overwrite the CF root? conflict with it ..? anyone tried this?
thanks!
Have you read the informations in the JVE thread? in the first post?^^
I'm pretty certain there's even a link to the thread you're looking for.
here's the post that is quoted in mentioned first post

Yes take the xwjv1 cf but no cwm...
to have it you have to flash a speed kernel ...or a kernel with cwm
I am on the latest gingerbread DXJPE. As most of you know Z4Root and Superoneclickroot and Gingerbreak don't work on this firmware.
We have available CF-root by Chainfire, DiP7 kernel, and Overcome which have root in addition to other features.
Myself and others that don't want OC/UV or CWM or Voodoo but want to use Titanium backup,etc want a simple root application or a patch to our firmware.
I cannot understand why can't a straightforward root cannot be done unless you have CWM or OC/UV....
So I am pleading/begging you expert coders/programmers in XDA-PLEASE PROVIDE A SIMPLE ROOT APP/PATCH FOR THE LATEST GINGERBREAD.
THANKS!

I am rooted on 2.3.4 and I don't have CWM. It's super easy to flash with Odin, no harder or longer than rooting with SuperOneClick would be.

May I ask what you used to root?
Update/edit: You have a sprint tab....
I agree, I have tried CF-root,DiP7 kernel and Overcome Gold. I have also posted my problems re: CWM but there seems to be nobody interested. I even asked Chainfire the author of CF-root for a way to root without the "extras" but he said it is not possible.
Maybe I will just be content on what is available?....

DXJPE. I have already tried rooting successfully- it's just that I wanted to have root with the following:
1. Stock boot animation with sound.
2. use of the default recovery instead of CWM.
3. be able to change CSC with no errors
All of the above can be done when I rooted using Z4root or superoneclick but not CF-root or Dip7 or more so not with overcome.
the stock bootanimations its already in the stock and it will only work in the stok !!!
if you rooted with superoneclick or Z4root how come you get CWM ? it only suppose to flash ROOT (superuser and busy box) thats all
to change the CSC ,tbh , its sucks way to do so , so ignore it and don't worry about it i also wanna try update via kies but never had
I think the person who posted the original question has a GSM tab and the guy who replied has the cdma sprint tab. The flash for cdma/sprint won't work for GSM. I might be wrong but if you try to flash with the wrong thing, there's an excellent chance you're going to bork your GSM tab. Same thing applies with the other android device I'm dealing with, the nexus s 4g. The GSM and cdma for ns4g and ns are different. The software and hardware under the Hood are different. Not drastically different but enough to make it so that development for the two types must be separate and aren't interchangeable.

to root a phone it doesn't matter if its CDMA or GSM , what is matter if you flashed rom is not for your tab ,
root only contains SUPERUSER and BUSYBOX and nothing else , what chainfire posted is a Kernel and not Root , but kernel contain both , CWM and Root access , and the kernels are for specific tabs.
my point is to root , it doesn't matter if you are GSM or CDMA , then how Z4root work or Superoneclick ? they just push the busybox and superuser to the system. so basically Root tools aren't that harm to your phone or tab

is it arabic rom or which region ? i can't understand what you want ? i mean everybody is hoping\wishing to get CWM so why you don't track the superuser where its located and the busybox and try to push them via adb or root explorer maybe this will work

No...just edit the /system/CSC/sale_code.dat file to whatever u want.

Are you sure that by only editing the dat file you will also reset the settings to the CSC that you choose? Example are language,frequency settings,applications for the region,etc?
What I know is that the CSC should match a nv_data.bak file for your particular firmware. If there is no match then it will be pointless to change CSC but just changing to any value.
BTW,hacking the cache file and installing the hacked file via CWM also solves the missing PDA and CSC ....

yeah.... but im assuming that a no-flash method comes with an unroot button..hahahaha
The advantage of android is that non market apps can be installed even without root. IOS in idevices do not allow non appstore apps to be installed unless jailbroken.
Also apps which require root are available for android on the market while you will find similar apps only thru cydia.

Our firmware is DXJPE, w/c is the asian region... I think there is an option for gingerbreak on superoneclick but I personally have not tried it out... Maybe bongski can try it out and see if it works...
@bongski: There is an option on superoneclick for "gingerbreak", just take a look at the available option, it may work for you... I don't have superoneclick on my laptop so I cannot tell you where exactly is that option... Try it out and see if it works...
I don't root my TAB, only on froyo when I want to flash other ROMS, so I can't be of much help here...
Both gingerbreak under superoneclick and the gingerbreak.apk don't work on the JPE firmware. I think the exploit in which gingerbreak is based is already closed by samsung.
the root you are able to achieve is through the rom not the kernel or recovery or any of that. that is not a horrible issue especially since there are only a hand full of roms. what has happened in the epic 4g forum is that some roms rely on kernel root and others rely on rom root, like what we have. rom root is fine for average root users cause you can get into the root directory and install or remove stuff at your whim. the issue will arise when the recovery is in place and roms are being developed. if you have a kernel thats not rooted and you flash a rom that isnt baked with root then you lose root. its kind of a chicken and the egg discussion on the surface. i imagine that kernel and recovery devs can argue the preferred method, but for most end users its moot. from what ive learned devices have a recovery kernel and a "rom" kernel. one gets you up and going and allows recovery to boot and the other will control how the rom runs. people have had some issues when they flash what that think is substantial kernel and use an app like quick boot only to find out they dont have a custom recovery like cwm. however when using 3 finger boot or in our case vol up +power they find the custom recovery. a rooted and properly flagged recovery kernel will boot into the custom recovery from the app or from the hardware induced recovery boot. if you read through oldmacnut's thread he eludes to partial root issues. again when our root comes through an odin of a rom thats got root baked in, you dont get to access all the innards of the device and the possibilities that other devices are seeing.
thats my interpretation of the situation
How do I know if Boog's KI1/KI2 Kernel 2 was flashed?
Kernel version says: 2.6.35.7-I897UCKI1-CL607313
init.d folder contains only: S99complete
I have CWM so I'm assuming that Kernel 1 flashed properly through Odin3
I came from S7
flashed AT&T bootloaders and stock KI2
then flashed emunee's rooted/deodexed/zipaligned KI2
then flashed Boog's kernel 1 .tar with odin
now I'm trying to flash Boog's kernel 2 using CWM....
What am I doing wrong? any help would be appreciated
The name of the kernel will not change because no source released yet. Since u have CWM ur doing good. The kernels are flashing for u. No worries.
Sent from i897ucki2
Thanks for all the help, I have 2.3.5 w CWM and i know boog has an updated kernel w root. Should I put that in my sdcard directory and restart in recovery and install package? Would that root me? Thanks, Im pretty new to this and just flashed for the first time and am very happy but wanna get rid of all the ATT crap
Thank you for the prompt attention, what about the init.d folder shouldn't the scripts show up after flashing kernel 2?
Would it be advisable to simply flash U.A.S.?

I think people have been having issues with boog's root kernel actually taking root from them rather then giving them root. I would advise the kernel swap method over flashing boog's rooted kernel for now.

If done correctly in the proper order (kinda difficult not to) only one script should appear in the init.d folder. As for the USAS I recommend reading the link in my sig about Android Optimizations first.

Hi all
If I root a SGS with some kernel (JVT CF or voodoo for example) and then flash again stock kernel, will I retain this root or I'll come back to an unrooted system?
Thanks!
My understanding is that you will be back to non rooted

No,root will stay butt you will not have any advanced option that comes with root.
Only stock kernel with root.
if you make rooting, as is.... when u return to stock kernel,it will be unrooted...
This is what i'm talking about.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205564&highlight=insecure+kernels
Try this.
From that thread:
You can use these files to return to the stock kernel if you wish, you will still be rooted but adb will not be running as root on first login via shell.

I upgraded to stock 2.3.3 and lost root- the superuser icon was there but apps requiring root eg TiB, would not be granted superuser permissions so effectively unrooted.
re-rooted it easily enough though.

Hi there, try XWJW6. Its much better and lag-free already.
Then, you may flash CF Root kernel and convert the filesystem from RFS to EXT4.

Hi - forgive the noob question....it's 2013 and I've got Gingerbread.XWJW8 and find it a bit laggy. I wanted to reflash a custom kernel to address occasional lag. But from above the lagfix is standard. Does this kernel include these anti-lag features? Should I reflash or let it lie.
OBTW, tried to root it using developer mode from a couple of techniques on youtube and it failed. Is this because Samsung blocks it?
nope, flash custom kernel, semaphore or cf root n ur fone will be rooted

Yes the above mentioned kernel includes lagfix.
Samsung doesn't block anything. You are not following the correct method.

Thanks - but may need more help as my phone is in a rebooting cycle now
Downloaded and installed standard Firmware from Sammobile - all good
Followed directions on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044519 and downloaded SpeedMod kernel K16 series which works on older Samsung 2.3.x roms. (mine is 2.3.6 GB). Started Odin3 and installed the .tar and it appeared to flash fine, then rebooted inot a continuous cycle. I followed directions to the letter - what could I have done wrong?
I'll try another older speedmod kernel and see what happens, otherwise it's back to the standard one again.
There shouldn't of been just one .tar, it looks like you may of flashed an update instead of a whole rom.
If there was 3 .tars then you probably put them in the wrong place. Try use a guide off android souls website. They really simple and I used them when I first started.
