[Q] Rooting problem (galaxy s) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

im trying root my galaxy s.
i followed everything as instructed.
but after rebooting by press volum up + home button + power button.
i choosed update.zip
after that it is telling verification failure and abort intalling.
what should i do....?
can u guide my step by step to root my galaxy s?
please help...i am newbie

the method you are using only works when you have recovery 2e. I'm guessing you are on froyo which is now recovery 3e.
I find the easiest way to root your phone is chainfires

but there are other ways e.g. superoneclickroot that can do it for you as well.

[Q]Help with cwm after rooting.

Hi I rooted my galaxy s i9000 on 2.2 Froyo. When I boot into recovery, I only have standard Samsung 2e recovery. I have tried using rom manager to flash clockworkmod but it is not working. I have also tried using the update.zip in recovery but is sayin its not verified. So I am looking for Help
Thanks
When you boot into recovery, do the 3 button Vol up + Home + Power again! It should then load into CWR.
Help
Do you mean once in samsung 2e recovery do the three button combo again and you should go into cwm??? I just tried that and it didn't work. Any more suggestions?? I reckon that I must of just missed something
Help
Please help...
In which way you rooted your phone?
Did you install custom kernel or something?
I don't remember much about Froyo, since when I got my SGS I updated to 2.3 almost straight away.
Root 2.2
I rooted my phone on 2.2 using the one click root application for the computer

Man rooted your phone with this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Possibly when did the cell root, put the stock kernel without cwm. You only need to download a custom kernel for example CF-Root or SpeedMod, you should look which is the PDA version installed and according to that you download the correct version. When you install it you will have access to cwm by the combination of the three buttons (Vol + + Home + Power)
hi there, don´t know if I can ask something about CWM here too????
I´ve got Firmware 2.3.3 Gingerbread, Basisbandversion I9000XXJVO, Kernel [email protected]#2, Buildnumber Gingerbread.XWJVI
can´t run CMW via Rom Manager as i´ve got 3e recovery ..... which ROM shall I flash via Odin to get the 2e recovery to install Vlockwork Mod properly??
tx in advance !!!!

[Q] i flashed my galaxy s wrong! help please!

today i wanted to flash my galaxy s to ics.
my galaxy s was already rooted so i put the zip in the root of my phone.
so then i went to recovery mode and installed ics and im sure i followed every step in the tutorial. But when booting it didnt stop booting and it was like that for an hour. so then i tried to flash it back to the firmware i had before.
i tried to flash back to gingerbread with odin but now it cant boot beyond the galaxy s gt-19000 screen.
i tried to go to recovery mode but in recovery mode everywhere its saying
"E: unknown volume for path {/data}
E: unknown volume for path {/data}
E: Unable to process volume! Skipping..."
and so on...
please help me
the firmware i need ends with jvi thats all i remember...
dude u can get stock firmware from samfirmware.com,try flashing darkyrom 10.2 re it saved me acouple of times good luck
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php
thank you for the answer ill try it
try going back to smthn like jvt or jw1 via odin and then if u want to flash ics follow the video on youtube by totallydubbedhd
You need to flash a rom stock using ODIN. If I understand correctly you must enable the option to re-partition so be sure to also include the .pit file when you will flash, then proceed to install ICS. It is recommended to remove the SD-EXT before starting to install because it can pass to enter a bootloop.

1. Put this file on your phone SDCARD:update.zip
2. Reboot your phone into recover by pressing VOLUME UP+HOME+POWER.
3. Choose "Install from sdcard"
4. Reboot and you are rooted.
You might have to update Superuser app and su once you root since its older.

Hi. i have tried different roms and after that i wannted to go back to stock rom, and i`v installed 2.3.6 xwktn like u and can`t root enymore. here is the solution that worked for me. U have to flash with Odin back u 2.3.4 (xxkpi is the one that i`v installed) and after that install 2.3.6 xwktn and u should root with the upd_1.zip entering in the stock clockworkmod! And it should be the first thing that u do! Today i`v meet the same problem and worked again! Hope u know to use ODIN, and if not i`m shore that is a tutorial with all that!

visit My Android Collections, look under unlock & Root, you have the option of using an app or by using your PC or flashing a CF Root or semaphore Kernel.
try this, it worked for me.
1st:
Install or Unbrick 2.3.6 Gingerbread in Samsung Galaxy S i9000
youtube.com/watch?v=DDg4oyRNets
2nd
Root 2.3.6 Gingerbread Samsung Galaxy S i9000
youtube.com/watch?v=Pq_2Z1drKzc
and i even maked my I9000 to android 4.2.1
Install 4.2.1 Jelly Bean in Samsung Galaxy S i9000 by Cenouralm
youtube.com/watch?v=LP9EomkF06c
All worked for me
I managed to root and install CWM without using a computer, here's how I did it... I was on gingerbread 2.3.6 so I installed Framaroot v1.5.2 to get root as Mobile ODIN needs root and won't work without it. link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276 then I installed Mobile ODIN (free in market) and the Mobile ODIN flash kernal here http://bit.ly/17kEetk next I download CF-Root here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108 unzipped CF-Root and placed it in Mobile ODIN, when you open mobile ODIN it'll say you need to download extra data, but it's only if you're flashing firmware, you don't need to download the extra data just for flashing kernels so ignore it... flash it and Mobile ODIN will install CF-Root then it'll auto reboot... once rebooted, go into recovery mod and you should now have CWM as well as Root access... hope that helps.

(1st:
1.1 Follow Cyanogen mods install wiki and download the Usb-driver(remember to reboot after) and the other stuff(no need for the android sdk). Youll have to google for heimdall-frontend
1.2 Use heimdall frontend to install 2.3.6 Gingerbread(XWJVZ_heimdall.tar for i9000) and dont freak out if mobile data is not working, it will work after step 3.)
as odin didnt recognize my soft bricked device, id stick to heimdall.
2nd:
follow cyanogenmods wiki advice and use heimdall to install cwm recovery, dont forget to visit your phones settings and put USB-debug on.
3rd:
a)
use your phone to download the rom-image +gapps you want. Boot to recovery, perform wipes and install.
or
b)
or if you want to stay with 2.3.6---> flash a working modem from recovery if its not working properly.
