Do you know of any rooting method aside from cf-root? superoneclick did not work for me. Alternatively how to root using cf-root without the cwm and just simple root/superuser?
have you tried GingerBreak?
I haven't used it but I guess it might work

The latest superoneclickroot has gingerbreak integrated. Did not work....I don't know about the command line method. I might try later.
superoneclick gingerbread rooting worked fine for me. I was on the 1st gingerbread released - stock rom 2.3.3 by chainfire...

I think the reason why the first GB-the Italian version was pulled out of samsung servers was because it was easy to hack/root. Now the official Asian GB has problems with rooting because they learned from the Italian version and put something on the later release to make it difficult to root.

Well, as I did it on a SGS2 and not on a Galaxy tab, I don't know if the same applies to the former. However, I experienced difficulties with SuperOneClick which I successfully worked around doing the following:
First of all, if you have .NET Framework 4.0 installed on your PC, try downgrading it to .NET 3.0. Reboot. Another thing, try SuperOneClick v. 1.5.5 (which uses rage-against-the-cage) instead of the newer ones (which use either gingerbreak or psneuter). Then, start SuperOneClick before connecting the phone (which must be on usb debugging mode, of course!). When SuperOneClick says it is "waiting for device" then connect the phone and let it do its job.
For me, it didn't work at the first try, as it got stuck at some point. However, after a huge measure of persistence, which included several trials using the mentioned procedure, I've succeeded. As since then I've upgraded my ROM twice, the process had to be done twice again, and the persistence was necessary to succeed in both. Don't give up too early: persistence is the key. At least it was in my case.
Good luck !
PS.: I also could only succeed using Chanfire's XWKDD insecure kernel, even with newer firmwares (KE1 and KE7). I don't know why, but KE1 and KE7 insecure kernels didn't work for me using SuperOneClick.
where can I get the old version like Superoneclick 1.5.5? I tried googling but could not find link....or please provide copy of your file?
thanks!
Unfortunately, as I'm new here in XDA forums, I'm not able to provide external links yet (website policy). However I was able to sent you the link via private message.
Good luck !
Unfortunately did not work for me.I think samsung have closed the exploit on this firmware - which was open on the Italian version.
i am trying to another way by the help of our good friends here

Mr. Bong,
3 attempt but not succeed, but i make another trick and i think you consider it,
i rooted it with cf and what you have said the audio in bootanimation gone, then i flash again with original kernel from gb stock by our kabayan noxxoius and the audio back again

doing this procedure disables the tweaks app by chainfire as far as i can tell.. wasn't able to check the CWM app and the boot recovery.
yes,
i just check it i thought if the su, cwm ,tweak apps are available in the phone it is already rooted and i check also in adb some commands not allowed/permitted
ahhhh i thought am got the right path
back to grade one
Hi could someone tell me why superoneclick stops at step 6 and then freezes?
Been trying to root my SGS for ages but i am having no luck
Regards Anthony
maybe im wrong but i think it has to do with the version of andriod is on your phone. i've tried this once after i accidentally updated android to another version and i wanted my phone rooted again.
Fixed
All sorted now thanks, the problem was is that i had gingerbread 2.3.5 on and superoneclick doesnt work with that so i had to use an alternative method.
All good now and thaks for the help
Hi! Does anyone know how to root stock 2.3.6? I've been doing some research and can't find anything but the one from bexton. I did try bexton's method but it didn't work on my phone for some reason because I can't get the ADB to reconize my phone. Fastboot works just fine but not ADB. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
This worked for me stock N1 2.3.6

Have you had any WIFI issues? I read that 2.3.6 can be rooted but using the previous build root. This causes WIFI issues. That's why I'm asking.
No wifi issues for me
F&%$ yeah! I've been trying to root this thing for a week and finally I got one that worked. Thanks!!!

has anyone tried it on this device?
No, but I don't see why it shouldn't work.. But we don't really need it since we can root in other ways.

If you just use the right version of superoneclick ( v 2.1.1 ) and then select exploit method gingerbreak, you can root this device.
I did this yesterday, after the v20L crap update...
I'm now back to cyanogen...
Or you can use nvflash method, always working, see thread in dev section, 'Root for dummies'.
The method you point is based on Revolutionary stuff which is quite specific to certain partition and mount frames, not sure at all it will work here, as LG hasn't the same bootloader policy (one if the very few good thing in LG, opened bootloader, on the contrary of HTC, Samsung and others).
I see there are a lot of articles saying how this should be done but at least in my case I haven't had luck with any of them.
After you read this you must realize I'm a noob on this.
I have ICS 4.0.4 Stock Firmware from TELCEL, Mexico and I'm having no luck getting the custom ROM installed or at least downgrade I think it will be better. The main problem with the phone is the battery life and it's slow, all after the phone upgraded to ICS.
I will do anything you guys suggest if you could please point me in the right direction.
A few things I've tried:
I've Rooted the phone using Unlock Root application suggested by one of the post I found here.
I've Installed ROM Manager and flashed the CWM Recovery Touch tool and followed the instructions to use a Zip, I was trying with the Zeuz Gingerbread ROM I downloaded from here but after the phone reboots all I get is "LG logo saying SECURITY ERROR"
Anyone has gone through this issue?
BTW: after the LG Security Error I have to get into S/W Upgrade and run the LG Mobile Support Tool to let it flash the stock firmware again.

The boot loader is locked. There are a number of tutorials on how to unlock it, but you need the original Froyo or Gingerbread ROM images from LG. Locating those seems to be the tough part. You downgrade to the earlier version, then you unlock.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction

Hey man thanks for your tip, after searching for the right problem I was able to unlock the bootloader and instal IZS ROM with no problems... I'll test it and try different rooms if this doesn't solves my issues.:good:
Here is the thread that helpemd me unlocking it without the need of Froyo or Gingerbread downgrade.
