Problem with I9000 One-Click Root?

Hi, i cannot use Galaxy S I9000 One-Click Root program. Always getting this error. i already install net framework:
Im also getting same error while running one root...can anybody help me or suggest an alternative?
I used SuperOneClick root...I'm not sure if this is what you're referring to, or if they're the same, but one thing some don't know is that to root you must
- Enabled USB debugging
- Connect USB Cable, but DO NOT MOUNT SD CARD
Hopefully, one of those do the trick. If not, you may want to try something like Z4root.
Porblem solved, was clicking on the wrong file. Clicked on root.bat and everything ok. I tried using superoneclick but it keeps on looping. Any idead why it does that?

[Q] Problem rooting Stock froyo captivate

Hi All,
I just purchased my Captivate yesterday from Costco (Expecting to still get the 2.4 Eclair) but unfortunately I got the Froyo 2.2 on my new captivate.
I tried rooting it using superoneClick and it just gets stuck on "Waiting for Device". I have drivers properly installed on my windows 7 64 bit machine (because I can use the phone and access its internal SD card).
Can anyone have suggestion or faced similar problems?
I have tried disabling/re-enabling usb debgging while it says "Waiting for the device"
Search the forum. There are a few threads floating around on different ways to root the stock froyo build. I don't know why the superoneclick wont work in your case but a search will turn up some info for you.
thanks. I will search the the threads and will post my results here in this thread for someone like me struggling with the same problem.
If you were planning on flashing a custom ROM after rooting anyway, you could use Odin one-click from download mode to flash 2.1 eclair, and then go from there.
Are you sure you are enabling debugging? I just used superoneclick on my phone last night after I flashe dback to stock.
First thing I do is change the phone in settings to - Ask on Connection, then I enable debugging.
Also you could try a different USB port on your computer and also make sure you have all of your necessary drivers installed.
I hope you get it figured out!
PeteSeiler2010: I haven't tried different USB port yet. I will try tonight and see if it goes through.
For usb debugging, I tried that as I mentioned. Let me just conform what I did. When it says "Waiting for device" for several seconds, I disconnected USB cable from either phone or computer (because it says that if you are stuck on "waiting for device", disable and re-enable usb debugging) because without disconnecting the cable, phone didn't let me disable the USB debugging..
So looks like I am missing something here??

want a much easier method? install speedmod kernel using odin, reboot into recovery, advanced features (not the CWM version), and choose the option that says something like "root phone" and choose the "simple" option. congratulations, you are now rooted and running a custom kernel with CWM that can install a custom ROM.
next time, please do not post this in development as this has NOTHING to do with development. Q&A or general next time, please.
How did someone with no posts, post a question in this section? I thought you had to have a minimum of 10 posts to post in here.
I am sorry if I have missed that rule for the new posting but I am new (just two days old) into the android world and for the xda forums as well..

[SOLVED] Rooting Issues

hi
clearly this wasn't as simple as the unrevoked method for my last phone,
I ran the script 'root many phone' and it cracked on whilst moaning about permissions and by the time it had finished the phone restarted a bit broken.
It had not play store, none of the previous apps on, wasn't actually rooted at all.
I managed to get play back on there but installing via adb.exe from the command line, and its almost like when I install something, that was on there before, it still has all the settings, so not quite sure what has gone on.
can anyone offer some advice, is it simplest to somehow get myself back to stock and start agin.
maybe I didnt run the root script from the right place. - phone was on and plugged in , usb debugging enabled.
any help much appreicated
I don't know of starting fresh is the 'best' option, but if you haven't done anything that you can't miss our can't do again it's never a wrong try.
Some people also reported that you need allow test locations on. And allow installation of external apps must also be set.
You can always try re rooting without reinstalling.
If you want to reinstall you're best of using Sony update service. Googling is fastest way to find it (not Sony pc companion)
Good luck,
And don't forget to mark your thread solved if it is solved

hi
yes that was what I tried
do I need anything more than that script? (eg those ftf files i keep reading about?)
does the phone need to be on, or in the volume down on boot state
it appears I need 'test locations' and 'external apps' set
anything else I need?
i will try again today at some point
thanks
sure I am being a spanner, but I cant even find the test locations or external apps setting anywhere?
where might that be?
unless test locations is 'mock locations' (guess so)
stilll not finding the external apps option, thought it would be in apps setting somewhere..?
ok found that too in security > unknown sources.
ignore me
That root script didn't work for me either; it kept asking me to connect my device with USB-debugging enabled even though I had already done that.
I would suggest getting back to stock and trying again, BUT use FlashTool instead. It worked perfectly for me in mere seconds.

I downloaded version 0.9.0.0 version, but no XperiaT in the list when I plug it in..
which phone did you pick?
presume the steps are
1. download flashtool
2. Install it on your PC
3. Run the Flashtool and connect your phone (enable USB debugging first)
4. Hit the Root button (second in row)
5. When you see "waiting for restore to finish" open your phone and run Backup&Restore app and restore RootMe.tar file.
6. Wait until Flashtool do the rest of work
thanks

If you mean in the adb drivers list, select Xperia TX. That was the only time I had to select a device.
OK finally success
although using the initial method.
maybe the problem was created by reading the 'root many phones' thread and where it says there is a special case for Xperia T/S etc I took that to mean when running the tool, to pick option '2) special case Xperia S tablet etc' - which didn't work
ran it again picked option '1) Normal' which did work
thanks for all your help

Not necessarily relevant to the OP's problem but I thought I'd share in case it helps anyone else out...
When I tried rooting using Bin4ry's method I kept getting a adb server out of date error and the root failed.
I eventually traced this to having DROID explorer installed which was forcing an old version of adb to be running and stopped the newer version from starting up.
Once I uninstalled the old version I was able to runMe and root the phone.

There are plenty of tutorials on here which work perfectly - if they aren't working for the OP then he is doing something wrong and a different software isnt likely to change that
You seem to promote that website in far too many posts to not be connected with them in some way
As @balloon27 suggested to the OP, try the All-in-One tool and post more information so that people can actually try to help
