[Q] Q - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if a sgs gt i9000 2.2.1 is rootable?
I have tried every way I know without success. Have tried z4root...
If u have the same phone as me and have been successful...can u please let me know how u did it
thanx Glen450

I don't have a link since I'm on my phone, but the popular "SuperOneClick" worked on all my Froyo firmwares that I've tested out...

[Q] guys little help please !

hey guys please help
i just flashed cyngemond 7 on my sgs gti9000 international
using this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061946
but now i want to go back to darky JVP custom rom i kindda liked it more
so my quesiton is do i need to do anything befor flashing via odin ?
do i have to disable lag fixs ? or anything like that ?
or just connect my phone to odin and flash the rom ?
thanks in advance guys
I'd say go back to 10.1 RE then go JVP from there. Having your lag-fix off is probably a good idea but apparently isn't needed if you're using Odin.
T there is no lagfix as such, cm7 uses yaffs file system as standard,

I have same tab.
try blinkertab.
Or reflash your rom from a safe restock.
Tried blinkertab don't work ! Tried restocking back to a stock 2.3.3 rom (nothing). Somebody told me to try a stock 2.2 rom ,but I can find a safe one . And the guy I bought it from didn't do a backup .. so if anybody else has any ideas or can point me to a safe stock T-Mobile stock 2.2 rom. I be greatful . I has a American T-Mobile tab 7" ..

Can I root sgs without a computer?

Hi there,
I'm running stock 2.3.5 jvt on galaxy s but wanted too root it. Is there a way of doing it without a computer as I don't have access to one any time soon.
I remember using z4root when I had version 2.2 but I'm not sure if that will work with 2.3.5.
Thanks in advance

You can try the following gingerbread. Try to search and hope it works for latest firmware. I have tried this long time ago when I used JVK..

You need to be on Gingerbread first before you can flash your phone with an ICS ROM. The following web site gives an easy step by step tutorial plus download links to get ICS on your SGS.

Ray.
or get 2.3.x updated from kies , than root it and then do cyan9 , its best. worked like charm. just read the instructions and follow it.
Kies says am upto date with latest software can i get gingerbread without kies?

You can update your device till 2.3.6.
Unfortunatelly I only have a german page with the explanation.
Actual firmware you find here for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570488
I think in this thread the users could help you.
Yes, using the Odin. Look here:
w*w*w.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-s-gets-android-4-0-based-aokp-rom/
For install ICS, you need first install a GB 2.3.6 rooted, look here :
w*w*w.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/
end enjoy.
Atencion, take very carefull in this journey. Read all with very carefull.
Sorry for my poor english.
BEWARE: You are coming from Froyo - so you have to flash an android version that includes a socalled "bootloader" (some versions don't include that, as far as I know).
Reed carefully first before flashing.
Thanks guys I did it through Odin now on 4.0 whoooooo lol
