If I want to root my Galaxy S running on 2.3.4 JVQ or JVR, how can I do it? I don't want to upload kernels which will bring me additional functionality, I want only to root my phone and that's it.
Is there any way to root it except to upload kernels which have implemented root + other functionalities?
Thanks.
Just look for cf-root. These kernels are stock just added with root and nothing else.
I am not so sure since most users experienced bluetooth malfunction after flashing CF-Root.

Root it with cf-root and then flash back the stock kernel. Works perfect.

Look for Ramad's stock rooted firmwares in the development section I think. They have stock everything with root, superuser and busybox 19.0. they're also deodexed and zipaligned, they run great.

Flash a speedmod kernel with odin instead, it will give cwm and the ability to flash custom roms like darky's

Thanks
Checking it out now!
If you want to go to the stock, go to the thread by ramad mentionned above and flash UGKG3, it's the latest and greatest stock bell firmware, as well as being rooted and deodexed. I'm running it now, works great.

Ok ill take a look at that too. How long have you been running that on your phone? Will I be able to update my phone in the future via kies if I wanted to?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
You can update using kies, it's detected and read by the kies client. I've been running it for a few weeks, never a single problem. It has busybox 1.19 installed in the bin folder, but you can just install an older one to sbin or xbin if you really need to. I really recommend it, I had a lot of trouble trying to root the stock 2.2.3 on my own.

So I have a rooted stock KG3. Can I apply a lagfix without flashing a new ROM?
If I have to use a non-stock kernel, which should I go with?
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
I have the same question. I have rooted KG3 and couldn't find any lagfix for this ROM. Could someone help!
Hi how can i root my galaxy s running 2.3.3 ive tried z4root and gingerbreak and they didnt work plz help
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Those only work for Froyo. You need Chainfire's AKA CF-Root for Gingerbread and beyond...

Flash through odin one of the cf-root kernel and than flash galaxian for CWM
Or you can just use SuperOneClick 1.9.5 or higer (latest is 2.3.2 if I remember right). It roots every version of Android, from Eclair to Gingerbread.
I have GB stock rom 2.3.6 N7000JPLA1, and i want to root it, I read it is not directly rootable and must downgrade and root then upgrade.
So, is there any kernel to use that has root also in one step rather than downgrade, root then upgrade?
Follow this guide

If you want to upgrade to ics then first update, b'coz rooting is easy on ICS.
Otherwise as said above follow that link

But I heard that speedmod kernel can be installed over GB and will make the root also, is this correct?
No, neither of ics kernel will work on gb rom

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But i think speedmod k1 and k2 are for gb.Isn't it??
For GB there is abyss and Cf root kernel also there. I said ICS kernel won't work.
Fundamentally it has no meaning to raise counter just by using custom kernel for GB for getting root, If you want to update. Here OP suggest he wants update.
ultimately if you want to update to ICS, best way is to go clean with PC odin and ICS rooting will take just 5 min to root.
