Galaxy Mini Android 2.3.6. - How to ROOT?? - no recovery mode - Samsung Galaxy Mini

please guys, help me. i just got this phone and it it came with Android 2.3.6. I want to get Root access but I cant believe how hard it it. I used to have LGp350 and did it just like that, and this is soo hard.
Every manual i encounter says i need to download a file, put it on my micro sd card and the turn on phone in recovery mode. Recovery mode does not open for me..
and then i see that this is only for phones with custom rom? if thats true, im confused.
How can i get that root, help me please, give me some manual, link, redirect me, or help me here. i really appreciate it.

thats the problem - nothing opens, phone just switches on normally

Dont worry dude.. Sorry to say this again.. See hold centre key(Home key) and Power button n hold it until u see recovery menu.. n still if it turns on the phone normally.. den i think der is some probs.. Coz in evry phone the recovery procedure works perfect. May b u shud check out that properly.
And about rooting wic u r asking.. u can just download superoneclick or unroot software to ur pc.. n connect ur phone in download mode and u can root in juz few min.. Hope u understud the procedure. N if u stil cant get. Reply i wil say the exact procedure n wil help u wid dat.
Press thanks if i helped u:thumbup:

Yes it will switch off.
It's more like,
*power off the phone.
*power ON the phone( by holding power button+home button) = recovery mode.
Edit: sry..u said u did the same thing sry, my bad.

Nobody has any other way? i cant believe this is not working for me.

U said ur phone was shipped with 2.3.6 so it is possible for samsung to have removed/blocked it but it seems very unlikely to me.
But u can try flashing to a different unofficial firmware frm samfirmware.
That should work.
does download mode work?
home+volume down+power

download mode works.
ill try this one more time.
any other root options out there?

nah, nothing. it wont go to damn recovery mode

Try with the Windows program called "Unlock Root"
It rooted my 2.3.6 from samfirmware
Just plug the usb cable to the PC without activating mass storage
And hit root on the software

2 things :
1. i pressed those 2 button along with the third one - volume up, and something showed in orange letters, but in both times i tried it just went along with boot 2-3 seconds later. it wouldn't stay so i could read what it saiz. phone just turned on
2.please give me a link to download that "Unlock Root" program

Root ur phone using superoneclick and flash custom recovery by ODIN....as u can goto download mode

is there an another option?
i'm pretty sure there is a way of forcing download mode, and then flashing a ROM using Odin.. not sure how though.. try googling it or asking around on forums.
Although, if you dropped your phone, and now its not working, there's a possibility of physical damage, and then you'l have to get it fixed.
The good news is that if you cant force download mode or recovery mode, and you cant turn the phone on, your dealer won't be able to tell what you were doing without forcing a flash or replacing hardware, so you're safe anyway.
But yeah, try forcing a flash using a bootloader.
EDIT: oh yeah, check this out. seems pretty scary, but hey, what the hell do you have to lose??

I have had this problem already. You need to force download mode by pressing three buttons and then with Odin reinstall the version you use to have you can find everything on this forum if you search a little. Success!

One boot into download mode .
Install a stock rom pit 512 and repartition checked via ODIN .
No download mode buy recovery jig .

i have dropped it and it wass like 30% complete with flashing now when i wanna press the 3 buttons it just starts normaly
Stupid reply but: Tried pulling the battery out?
Anyways:
No download mode means buying/borrowing a jig.
Or you could try the hair dryer method but thats a bit risky.
If you cant to any of those you'll have to send it to Samsung. Just say you were updating to 2.2.1 with KIES and then when the update was finished, your phone wouldnt start.
If it fails starting in download mode remove the battery put it back and try again. If the telephone can boot to the galaxy screen. It can boot in download mode. It was tricky when i had the problem and it took me 2 hours until i manage to have it. In my telephone the trick was press menu first then on and volume down..

Note CAPTIVATE NOT SAMSUNG GALAXY S
Its a different system for download mode on a different phone .
Method remove battery replace hold down volume DOWN button and HOME button Now hold down POWER button .
When phone boots to splash screen let go of home and volume down followed by power button .
not work means you need the download mode recovery jig from the front pages .

[Q] How to Recover my phone ?

Yesterday I have purchased used Samsung Galaxy S (not S2) from my friend which got locked.Too many pattern attempts! is what the message I'm getting. I was not able to access any thing, Except incoming calls.
Keep XDA forum in mind I have purchased it blindly, but after reading few threads in here I cant find any solution to unlock this.
So someone please help to get out of this, Provide me the solutions
Please remember
* I have never seen it Rom Version and Kernal Version
* Its not configured with gmail account. How ever i have tried few tricks to configure gmail account by making calls to locked phone. But failed.
* I have tried all different combination of keys to boot to recovery mode and FAILED !
So can some one let me know how do I flash my phone in this case !
Thanks in advance

Mhm... but as his recovery mode access is blocked, I doubt if he will be able to access the download mode as well...
@OP: if you will be able to go to download mode - apply the Bhuvan's advice. If not - last resort - buy jig on eBay...
Spamtrash I d think that the op knows the correct way to access recovery. And why he wont be able to access recovery, pattern lock is not related to recovery. Pls guide him to acces recovery and download mode, I am busy sorry.

Recovery = Volume Up + Home + Power
Download = Volume Down + Home + Power
If your phone is off, hold down those buttons as you would the power button to boot the phone into the appropriate mode. If your phone is on, hold down those buttons for ~10 seconds to reboot your phone into that mode (likewise, holding down just the power button for ~10 seconds will reboot the phone while it's running).
Regardless of whether or not the phone is locked (pattern, pin, anything), you should be able to access these modes. If you can get your phone into download mode, you can flash whatever ROM you want with Odin, stock or custom—and this will replace the entire firmware, which will reset the lock. However, I would not recommend flashing a ROM if you cannot get your phone into download mode, or you risk bricking your device.
If ur recovery is working then their is wipe data/ factory reset option in samsung's recivery too. Try that.

Guys, thanks so much for your time ! I have tried all most every method you guys suggested me. but no good luck !
I know a dude who can do this soft of issues, but not for free (LOL)
First he told that the pattern can be unlocked. When I reached him to get it done. he told that it is going to take long time and its much better to flash new rom 2.3.4 where all my data will be gone. I agreed and what he did is
My phone was not going to download mode with the 3buttons shortcuts as upichie told. he connected a USB pin to my phone and used 3 button shortcuts to go into download mode. from download mode he flashed my phone to latest version 2.3.4.
This is how my issue ended ! you know what's the funny thing in this ? he download every thing from XDA !! HE HE !! LOL !!
Thanks again for all who ever replied and tried to solve my issue !

For future reference, it sounds like he used a USB JIG to get the phone into download mode, in case you need to find information about that on a later date.

1. prepare odin for flashing
2. connect your usb cable
3. insert the battery into your phone while pressing power + home + vol down
4. itll get into download mode
5. click start...
6. wait.............
7. enjoy
i suggest you flash mush69 rom
i used these settings in odin while my phine was hard bricked while flashing mush69
the .ops file as ops
apboot file as boot
modem file for phone
code file for pda
and csc file for csc
dont forget to hit the thanks button
Same here ...
It happened the same to me like 4 month ago... the phone didnt respond at all, rom manager fried my motherboard, so i send it to ASC but i told them that the phone just one day it tuned off and and never work again, after wait for 1 week they change it to me for a new one for free xD
Unfortunately if rom manager fried your motherboard too... it's the only solution.

Then let's consider power failure and PC turn-off
Like someone already said just send it to samsung service and with an inocent face say "I dont know what happened, it just never turned back on " and they cant find out the real reason it bricked so they will fix it

[Q] HELP! Phone stuck in unuseable state

Hi

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2115167
After I followed the instructions I rebooted the phone and now I'm stuck with loads of FC! I can't even reboot into recovery or download mode because the stupid HOME button doesn't work.
I don't know what to do??
Can anyone help or advise please? I'd want to get my files off the thing if I can't save it sigh

You have the right area so don't worry about that.
It looks like your phone is done for good, but let's try to salvage it. Follow the steps carefully to avoid messing it up even further.
1.Make sure your battery is charged. Use an universal charger or something similar to charge it if not.
2.Unplug your phone from your USB cable or charger.
3.Put the battery back inside but do not power it up yet.
4.Hold the VOLUME DOWN button and the HOME button. While holding both of them, press and hold the POWER button. You should be prompted with a DOWNLOADING message. If nothing shows, then it's dead.
5.If you are shown the message, then you can still make it work. Make sure you have all your USB Drivers installed. After that download ODIN.
6.Open ODIN and plug in your phone while it is still in DOWNLOAD mode.
7.If it recognizes it, follow the steps here and you should be done.

There is not much left to do. If there is a method of fixing this type of hard brick, the chances are very slim. You're better off sending the phone to Samsung Care.

Connection: 0 is drivers or kies problem. Uninstall all the Samsung USB drivers and re install them and also force stop or close kies running in background.
