[Q] How do i root my i9000 with 2.2.1

Hey everyone, i recently purchased a sgs i9000 and i really want to root it, i have read a lot about rooting (including reading threads on this site) and i am still a bit unsure. Here are some details about my phone:
Model number: GT-I9000
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: I9000BVJP4
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: FROYO.BVJS4
It is branded to Orange (so it has the Orange bootup as well as the Galaxy bootup)
All i am insterested in is rooting my phone to have superuser access. At the moment i am not bothered about flashing a rom during the root process.
Thanks in advance

If you'll be staying at 2.2.1 you can flash a kernel with odin. For instance, speedmod k13e or sth. else. It will make your phone faster and will add superuser and busybox and it takes less than a minute to do that.

hi
you can root it using different ways
1-try z4root from the market
2-using odin flash any voodoo kernel or speedmod kernel
3-i think also super one click will be usefull
regards

So speedmod k13e works with my build number etc? or does it not matter? Thanks

Yeah, 2.2.1 kernels work on all 2.2.1 ROMs.

[Q] What is the difference? JVQ JVK JVP...

my phone says:
Baseband version
19000XXJVQ
Kernel version
....XXJVP...
Build number
GINGERBREAD.XXJVQ
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. I want to download something and it says JVQ only. Can I download it?
2. Which one is the best?
3. What is ODEX/DEODEXED?
Sorry I'm noob but I want to learn.

help please
How do I switch to JVP?

First, you need to read more jejeje.
(this is the radio version or "modem")
Baseband version
19000XXJVQ
(this is the kernel. I assume that is because you flash JVP root kernel to make you root in jvq)
Kernel version
....XXJVP...
(this is your android version 2.3.4 jvq compilation)
Build number
GINGERBREAD.XXJVQ
JVH, JVB, JVP, JVQ, JVR etc.... are diferents builds of android. theoretically the more new, it is because it has fewer errors.
Note: if you want to view kernel JVQ, just flash a jvq cf kernel

and which is the best and what is the difference? which is the newest?

newest is jvr and it appears to be closest to a final release as far as I am concerned based on use of the earlier previous versions (jvh, jvo, jvp).
You will find less rom choice for jvr as it is just new: even fewer good kernel options -- over on the development section you will see new posts as developers issue new releases to match the new stock version available.
Many choices for jvq but the basic stock firmware is not as solid as jvr.
Check posters signatures and you can see what people are actually using: no one can say what will be the best for you, only what preference they have and why.

Ok thank you.
where can I find JVQ or JVR?

[QUESTION]Flash Custom Kernel (CM7)

Hello All,
I used to run DarkyRom 10.2 Extreme. Now I am on Cyanogenmod 7.1.0-GalaxyS.
Phone Details:
ROM: Cyanogenmod 7.1.0-GalaxyS
Android Version: 2.3.7
Baseband Version: I9000XXJVT
Kernel: 2.6.35.12-gdf10700 [email protected] #1 - not sure what kernel this is??
Build Number: GWK74
~Questions:~
Can I flash a custom kernel over the top of this currently installed ROM (like I did when I flashed the JVT Modem to fix my data connection)?
I have read that the Recovery is stored in the Kernel - So if I flash a different kernel will it replace my CwM 5.0.2.6? (I have noticed there are different colours of CwM Recovery - is this because of the kernel?
Thankyou for any help

Yes you can flash custom kernels, just be sure that the kernel you flash is for Cm7/MIUI and not sammy stock ROM. I have tried Glitch myself a couple times, but I stay on stock CM7 kernel for the moment since i find it more stable.
Peace out!

1. Yes, but before flashing a new kernel flash this script.
2. Correct, but if I'm not mistaken all the major kernels have CWM5 (Platypus Neo 18, FuguMod, Glitch)
Also, you might want to switch to CM nightly #181 instead of 7.1 stable, just a suggestion. 7.1 is quite outdated.

Thankyou very much for the replies, I will flash the nightly tonight using ROM Manager

[Q] About Semaphore kernel flashing

hi,
i have stock Galaxy s i9000 with 2.3.4 XXJVP.. i want to install Semaphore kernel... hoping it will improve overall performance and give even better performance with games like asphalt 6,,..
all i want to know is that can flash it over my stock with SGS kernel flasher??? or are there any other pre requirements for it???
or is there any better kernel for playing games lag free??
THX

Ny reply??? :-(

You can install this Kernel via Odin easily, and YES it will improve your overall performance
Ps.:Flash Gingerbread 2.3.6 its really good

Remember to disable lagfix.

The best kernels for playing games on gingerbread roms are the Semaphore Bigmem kernels. But if you really want lag-free and super smooth gaming, you should consider using froyo 2.2.1 roms.
Oh, and to answer your question, yes you can flash the kernel using the kernel flasher app, but it's probably safer to use Odin.

Thx fr the replies...
I would want to know which version of semaphore to download..??? Thrre are two versions.. 2.1 & a bm version ...

How do you do this?

you should download the RIGHT kernel, if you have JVP download the kernel for JVP ,not the kernel for JVZ.

for gaming and performance TalonDEV kernel is the best

Semaphore kernels link
Hey can someone give me the link to semaphore jvt 1.9.2 kernel?
TIA

If you dont know, you probably dont have to. My guess is you have never used lagfix or ext4. if you think you might have, go to cwm recovery - shut down phone, hit the 3 button combo (power + home + volume up) until samsung galaxy boot screen appears and leave the buttons immediately. in the recovery mode, go to advanced and see if theres any option for Lagfix or Ext4.

No you should not do that. Use a kernal that is meant for your firmaware. If you want to flash semaphore 2.1.1, first upgrade your firware to JVZ using Odin. The are plenty of links to this firware under General.

This could be a silly question
As per the SamMobile.com the JVZ released on November 2011
so how comes this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908) postdate is 6 June 2011 ?
My Base version is I9000XXJVT
Kernal version [email protected]#2
can I use above way to root my phone ?
Please help

Hey sorry have been away. Well you should be able to flash a kernel but there arent many out there and i am a little wary of flashing a kernel as they are all in a very experimental stage. Moreover, i find teamhacksung's (pawitp's) build to be more stable and the aries kernel was a whole lot more better. hated glitch the moment i flashed it.
Happy flashing...

Can we use ANIDROID KERNEL 3.0.36 with stock ICS 4.0.4

Hello all,
I am really sorry to start thread like this i am new to this, but i serched before and could not find any answer. So starting thread.
I have curretly Anidroid Rom and kernal from Anidroid which i got from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1761190
Now I really liked the performance of this rom, but it dont have s-pen feature, also the inbuilt apps, like dev devloper and other are really no use for me. So i would like to go for stock rom again as samsung is providing ICS 4.0.4 update to another countries.
But for the same performance like this rom, I would like to know can i use this ANIDROID KERNAL 3.0.36 with stock ICS? Also After doing this, will performance reamin same like now?
Also how to do it, I assume i should flash the stock rom, by flashing abyss kernal 1st. and in last i should flash Anidroid kernal, is this right?
One more thing i would like to know, that i am from India So there is no stock update available, then can i use update which is provided for another countries? and which will you recommend as Open Germany, Singapore (SingTel), Singapore or Malaysia?
Or i should wait for update for India?
My current details of mobile.
Model number
GT-N7000
Android version
4.0.4
Baseband version

Thank You.

Anidroid = cm9 = can't use in stock ics.

In theory it's possible... there are no reasons for the principal differences in the Kernel sources between Stock and CM brunches.. It's Linux with Android part of code and Samsung drivers.. but it needs testing for the issues prevents AniDroid and many other CM Source-based kernels working correctly on Stcok ROMs..

Theory is sometimes far from reality. I have yet to see a "universal" kernel for N7000 that can do what the OP wants.
