hey mate i also want this just got an sgs. i also want to fix the vodoo laggfix is that possible? i just want pure root also.
Try this app SuperOneClick Root
Read the post vand try it. It worked for me in froyo. It seems to have GB support now.
Good Luck
You can't. If you don't want a custom kernel you're out of luck. Making your own rooted kernel is easy enough, there are instructions on this forum.

are u refering to the vodoo lag fix?
No way
So seems no way to do that, We had things like Z4Root but I can't see if that is updated or used anymore. There should be a way, just simply to root nothing else.
Anybody any ray of hope still, as in first post, I am looking for pure root without flashing anything?

Z4Root doesn't work on 2.3.3 anymore, you should really try to root using SuperOneClick or flash a custom kernel.
But why do you not want to flash a kernel? In the end it only impoves the phone

I'll try super one click. Thanks.
Well it's simple, I am more or less happy with stock kernel so don't want to flash anything.If SuperOneClick fails then I know I have to flash a kernel.
If I go for a kernel, which one should be the best in your opinion?
please reply here if superoneclick worked for you! thanks
I've never heard that GB could be rooted without flashing a kernel. Just use i.e. cf-root which is stock added with root

No I'm talking about taking the stock kernel, ripping it apart, adding you're own su, reassembling it, then flashing it. Best way to do it because you know exactly what you're getting.

Which CF-ROOT?
Guys,
I am not comfortable with super one click, I am looking for CF-ROOT but could figure out which one to use,
This is what I am running at the moment:
2.3.3 XWJVH XEN,baseband:XXJVO.
Can anybody point me to correct CF-ROOT version to use, I found one to root JVH but it's for NEE version and I doubt if that's correct.
I appreciate any help.Thank you. Any body from Nederland, experienced with CF-ROOT, please share.
Only way to root 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 is with cf-root. Super one click and all others don't work.

To be clear, the only way to root 2.3.3/4+ is to use a custom kernel. CF-Root (specifically) isn't necessary. As I said you can make your own rooted kernel easily enough. I'd recommend doing it this way so that you can learn how to root future roms yourself, breaking the dependency on having someone else do it.
According to instructions given how to root yourself, you need to have Linux kernel installed. What with us who are using Windows OS?
For Linux: Ubuntu is piece of cake to install and Cygwin is solid on windows.
Anyways: I rooted using CF-Root, it worked good. No super one click or etc. CF-Root is actually a stock kernel with root installed and some good tweaks so no worries.

Install VirtualBox, grab Ubuntu 11.04 from http://virtualboxes.org/images/ubuntu/.
Or install ubuntu "in windows" using the ubuntu wubi installer which comes on the live CD.
Or use cygwin.
Tried superoneclick. Doesnt' seem to work. The program just freeze or not responding.
Why not flash cfroot or speedmod with autoreboot unticked(cfroot will install automatically root but delete boot sound,speedmod will leave it be but root have to be installed in the recovery menu).
So,for speedmod:flash it autoreboot unticked,pull off battery when done,boot in recovery,install busybox and su in recovery,reboot into download and flash your stock kernel.(perka file stash site have a nice collection of stock kernels).

I was wondering if anyone could give me(noob) a quick tutorial on how to use Odin multi downloader to flash kernels. I've been wanting to flash Unhelpfuls kernel, but id rather not brick my phone lol. I was also wondering if anyone could tell me how to get the lag fix for my phone. Iv already rooted with unleash the beast, so i wasnt sure if it was possible unless i flashed to the stock rom and used SuperRooter...any help would be much appreciated
You would have to flash back to stock then use super rooter. Its the easiest way for being a noob. (I'm still learning) Everything is one click

I know that the official gingerbread was released yesterday. Normally DG would post up a deodexed, rooted, and zip aligned version first thing. Unfortunately he is no longer supporting the captivate. Is this out there yet ?
no, not yet. There are leaked KK4 releases like that. FYI - SuperOneClick and other zergRush exploits do not work on KK4. The kernel in the official KK4 has a different version number than the leaked build. I am still eagerly awaiting someone to release a TAR of the official kk4 kernel so I can do a fugu kernel swap.

There are people in the SuperOneClick thread who are reporting that they successfully rooted with SOC 2.3.3, not sure what they have done. I know I have used fugu for the various prior leaks. I'm with you though, in hoping that someone will release a TAR for the kernel and the released ROM, if for no other reason to facilitate going back to stock if I ever decide to make the leap to CM9 or ICSSGS and need to go back.
Re:
It was my understanding that if the kernal version was different that there could be various tweaks to the release and they may not have changed the build numbers at all. A leak is ok, but I would rather have the full release stock, rooted, etc... as listed above. Thank you for your replies, this is good information
I can't wait for the superoneclick update that allows me to root my captivate with 2.3.5.. i've had no luck rooting this thing with any other method on Gingerbread

Re:
What I am looking for is something,
Stock, rooted, deodexed, zip aligned, with Voodoo Sound,Voodoo Lagfix,Voodoo Color
BLN isn't my favorite, Cognition was my absolute favorite ROM, I wish DG would do this last one. I may message him.
Umm don't expect any of those things(VOODOO color, sound(unless you have paid app)) these items have to be added to the kernel, and right now no one has gotten the new kernel source to boot(YET). It will come in time, and don't become demanding at all!
If you need a tar if the kernel for fugu swap to root, use adb to copy the kernel. For more info on how, google "how to make an Odin flashable rom" by darky. That will leave you with a zImage that can be turned into a tar in Linux, or with cygwin in windows

I'm kind of a n00b at this rom stuff. I got my phone backuped with Titanium Backup and was wondering if there's anyway to backup all the data + apps back on Official 2.3. I'm still waiting to update to it but I heard from this thread that SuperOneClick doesn't support Captivate 2.3 yet. So yeah :/

Are there any ways to remove the lag? Custom rom? Overclocking?

I guess any custom rom is better than stock. Have tried rocketrom and checkrom so far, and they are both a flight to remember. We Swedes don't seem to get very rescent uppdates through Kies or OTA updater either. Im guessing checkrom is the best way to go right now, but thats mainly because it seems to me that 4 persons are developing that and rocketrom is being developed by one person. May be wrong but that my impression. Checkroms hardware accelerated UI and browser are a real treat as well.
If you wish to overclock then just get the XDA-member-free version of set-cpu and use it with a custom ROM of choise, but you won't need to in order to get rid of the lag. It will be quite gone anyway.
Heja Sverige!

Robbie's DarkyRom is the way to go in my opinion. Well worth a try.
when saying hardware accelerated UI, it only applies to TW, right, and not 3rd party launchers? ADW, specifically.

If you haven't already check out the latest stock ROM LA4. That is the fastest of the stock ROMS. If that doesn't solve it you can try out custom ROMS. I like Cassie's Lite ROM v6. It is very close to stock but with performance tweaks and most junk removed. After A LOT of testing I found it runs the best with FM 2.0 kernel. Hope this helps.

Well, I've tried to get the latest stock rom but I'm not sure what I'm doing. I have been flashing roms since forever (Windows Mobile and Galaxy S) but I have obviously forgotten everything.
Right now I'm rooted on KK4 and I've bought Odin Mobile Pro. Not sure I really need OMP, but oh well.
Can I use N7000XXLA4 Germany from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 even though I have a swedish phone? I've read somewhere that swedish is included in the german version IIRC.
And I just need to follow the steps starting with 1.Easy way is Mobie Odin Pro.?
Flash a better stock rom, or wait for ICS with root?

I'm using KK4 stock ROM from Hong Kong. No lag whatsoever. My Note really flies now.
I have rooted using Chainfire's method using the exploit mentioned in the above quoted article (without using Odin). Then used Titanium Backup Pro to freeze all stock apps that are memory hogs in Touchwiz, e.g. Media Hub, Social Hub, etc.
Then also used Rom Toolbox to change the SD boost settings (in performance) to 2048kb. I still use the SGN in power saving mode and have Juice Defender Ultimate set to "balanced" to extend battery, nevertheless my SGN is fast, smooth and has no lag at all.

You are wrong.. Using odin for flashing stock firmwares doesnt increase ur binary counter.. Just dont flash custom roms using odin... My suggestion is to use latest firmwares like kla4 or kla6 to reduce lag.. And yes you can use mobile odin for flashing them.. Binary counter wont get increased as it is stock.. But mind you, the latest firmwares cannot be rooted directly.. So you will lose rooting benefits.. So if u want a rooted latest kla4 or kla6,flash a custom rom using it using cwm recovery not odin.. I m using rocket v21 wid abyss 3.5 now
I'm using stock firmware/rom and getting no lag.
The only slight delay I ever get is the wakeup time or when opening sms messages/contacts, it may take several seconds to open.
As for menus/apps it is silky smooth for me thanks to a custom launcher & spareparts+

Already flashed LA4 through CWM, worked great. No difference in lag though...
Can I flash N7000XXLA6 (Russia) and still keep the current language (swedish)?
Yeah you can flash, but there is not much difference between LA4 and LA6 except the Russian language i guess. The Lag free update LA4.
Ok, I'll skip LA6 then. I did notice a difference in the browser, it seems there's no horizontal scroll lock when scrolling vertical. I dont think it was like that before?
I dont like the feeling of it, hope they will change it back...

One version you can install like normal app
I appreciate the help, but (unless I misread somewhere) I think you still need root for that as it needs a file to be copied with root explorer...
U dont need to root it
just install normally apk that guy above gave u
astro file manager doesnt need root and works just as well as root explorer now.
But the post says that I need to copy the lib folder and set its permissions, I thought you needed root to do this :S Are you saying I can just install the APK and the lib file is not needed?
Sorry if I'm being thick and overlooking the obvious ;-)

Hi
Well There is A Version Of FlashPlayer on XDA for Stock Rom.
Download and Install.
It seems like a question which may be answered somewhere, but while trying to research and find my way out of a bricked phone, I realized there are solutions that exist within this forum, but are not widely viewable and it helps to ask again.
I know the most popular way to root a GB ROM is to rollback to an older version and then root it. But I have bricked my phone once due to ICS and would really like to retain the stock GB configuration with my new phone. So, is there a way I can root my phone while keeping the same stock GB ROM that came installed on the phone and the modem?
Please do not suggest how easy it is to root by rolling back or installing a deodexed pre-rooted ROM - I have done that with my old phone and I know how easy it all is. I just want to retain my stock GB confirmation and root it. Thanks.

Sorry, I thought posting from the Note includes my signature, which has the info. about the ROM and kernel.
Anyway, I guess people on the Note do not see the signature in the xda app, so here are the details:
Stock GB ROM 2.3.6.7 XXLA6
Kernel: XXLA6
Modem: XXLA4
I am located in the US. By the way, I had XXKKA when I got the phone and then it got updated to the version above. I tried Google but didn't find where the firmware was originally from.

I have a rather complicated method in mind.
What I understand your requirement is : you want to retain your Stock GB ROM (most probably data as well, which could be the reason behind the reluctance to flash another GB ROM)
What if you:
1. flashed a CF-rooted GB kernel, and made a CWM backup(the ROM would still not be rooted);
2. carried out the roll-back procedure to get back to your current ROM with root but no data, and
3. restored just /data from CWM?
I believe stock GB ROMS are non-wipe, so you shouldn't have a problem. Since your current ROM is not directly rootable, I'd say there isn't any method to just root it.
Right, Chasmodo?
I have an even better idea: how about an upgrade while rooting?
Use this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25285584&postcount=3
Download LC1 Rom and follow the instructions from the above post.
P.S. Signature is pretty much invisible if you access XDA from your phone.
P.P.S. If you run into a bootloop after flashing follow this:

Thanks, again. It seems like there is no way I can retain my stock GB ROM and modem. The concern with flashing any other version, such as LC1, is that I will go away from the originally installed ROM, and when there is an ICS update available for my version of GB (LA6), I may not be able to upgrade it using Kies or OTA. Is that true?
The first link you provided has a reference to CF kernel, which will introduce the the triangle and raise the binary counter. Is there any way around that?
And, is there anything I can do to avoid the bootloop?
How come LA6 is assigned to a ROM from Russia as well as Open Europe? I thought the characters "LA6" were assigned to merely one country/region.

Heh, I already told you in my previous post.
Go to Chainfire's kernel thread and download CF-Root LA6. Extract the tar file, and flash it using Mobile Odin.
That way you don't get the triangle, and don't trigger the binary counter.

Do you still get the triangle with the cf kernel? No one responded for a long time last night so I flashed the Abyss 4.2 kernel, but I'll switch to cf kernel if it's better.

No. You do not trip the flash counter when you use MobileODIN..... ever. And if you want to stay as stock as possible, use CF-Root.

I followed the instructions on the Galaxy Note Root website then the triangle was annoying me so I used Triangle away to get rid of it.
It seemed by far the easiest way after having read loads of different ways of doing it.

No specific benefit, it all comes down to user preference.
I never had much luck when testing Abyss, it kept draining my battery.
However, many users like it and report great battery life. Also, Abyss
can be overclocked.
CF-Root is closest to stock of all kernels. It's stable, just a tad slower
and easied on the battery.

Sorry for the delay. Chas is right. There's no specific benefit to using CF-Root. However, CF-Root is a completely stock kernel with only root and SuperSU added. So technically, it's just as stable as an unrooted stock kernel. When compared to elaborate kernels with overclocking, undervolting, boot scripts, added governors, etc., CF-Root can actually be a significantly more stable option for those in need of a rooted kernel. In addition to CF-Root, there are also kernels based on CF-Root. For example, although built from source instead of being a modified stock kernel, the new Franco kernel is largely based on CF-Root 5.3. As a matter of fact, they are so similar that even Chainfire's own CWM Manager app detects the new Franco kernel as CF-Root 5.3.
So you see, your options are vast. You're not limited to Abyss & CF-Root, but CF-Root is one of the best options available.

I am still confused whether the cf root causes the yellow triangle or not, as someone said in this thread that the triangleaway app removes the binary count, but I didn't get an impression the app removes the triangle, too.
Isn't there anyway I can flash the cf root kernel and not have the triangle and the increased binary count?
