Can't Root Samsung Galaxy Ace 2.3.6 XWKT4 - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i tryed all the ways to root my Samsung Galaxy Ace (S5830), SuperOneClick, upd_1.zip
I get the superuser application on it but doesn't give me root acces, so its still not rooted,
All applications that requires rooted phone don't work, super user doesn't show any allow
notifications, has no apps in its list when i open it, tryed modifing settings in it still no succes....
Model Number: GT-S5830
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: S5830XWKT4
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-perf-CL965213 [email protected] #1
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.HRKT2
I googled a lot, tryed a lot, no succes, please help!
EDIT:
I did it!
I know this is an old Thread but I wanted to post that I did and how I did it: The problem was because of my stock rom limited space so I used thinkdroid.apk_removal.zip to remove thinkdroid from device and free space for full super user installation was now there, and afther the thinkdroid.apk every root atempt worked flawlesly.
The problem was because of the Hugo Boss Rom that had a limited internal memory, ow and I needed to delete everything on internal memory, so if someone is having the same problem:
1 factory reset
2 from recovery flash thinkdroid removal
3 flash root_upd1 (or any root zip for sga)
done

Can u uninstall the superuser app?

I did exactly like in the tutorials, I copied the root.zip to sd card, putted device in recovery mod, update from sd card, reboot, got super user on device but, no root acces, so i "unrooted" my device, to delete the unworking superuser, how do i make it work ? please help... In the tutorials there is nothing sayed about flashing( I don't know well this term I think it means installing operating sistem on device) I don't want to flash a nother operating sistem version of android, I just want to root my device. Make the superuser work, grant root acces for applications...
Video example of what i did [update data from sdcard] : youtube video /watch?v=rUSn0E_dWMg (and unrooted and tryed a lot of diferent root.zip files none worked... unrooted and wiped to factory settings after every fail...)

SO i need to flash cfroot kernel, afther that the superuser app will work fine, my device will have ropot acces, and apps that needs root acces will work? can i flash a cfroot kernel via recovery mod/ update from sdcard ?

1. Backup everything on your device
2. Do a factory reset
3. Apply upd_1.zip (for Gingerbread 2.3.5, 2.3.6, attachment)
4. Put all your files back.
Do not extract the zip file! Just select the .zip file from your SD card.
Tested: Galaxy Ace - 2.3.5 Stock

I used a tutorial here to do the same XDA root and it worked, I had no trouble doing this, it may be that some people make out it gives error.

Do factory reset.
Don't install anything on the internal memory.
If you have any app that requires root access, delete them (ex: ROM Manager, Superuser etc.)
2 options:
Try the .zip file again
or
Use SuperOneClick ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682 )
If you use SuperOneClick make sure you follow the steps.
You NEED to put your phone on USB Debugging mode
You NEED to install make sure the Android drivers for your phone are installed
Make sure you DO NOT mount your SD card.
If you still can't get something to run, try doing it in recovery mode.

Try to update to the latest software using Samsung Kies!
Then try the .zip file or SuperOneClick.

If the .zip files don't work, try this one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603273

I see that I allredy have the latest version on my ace...

Try to flash a 2.3.5 Stock. Most phones have 2.3.5 pre-installed. Install a ROM like CyanogenMod to get 2.3.7 and extra features when you are done rooting.
Get a 2.3.5 ROM at samfirmware.com
You need to register and all the .zip files have a password (pass: samfirmware.com)
EDIT: Backup everything from your SD card and format it. Put it back and try again.

After flashing last firmware logo_q1.jpg draw failed

Hi!
I flashed today my note with the last Firmware.
I had:
PDA N7000XXKA
PHONE N7000XXKK5
CSC N7000XXKK5
Flashed to the XXKL7. I had the ATO CSC, so iI flashed back to the KK5.
Since that i became the error "logo_q1.jpg draw failed"
Then I changed to DBT, flashed XXKL7 once more, but the Error is alway here.
Tried to Hard reset (vol up - menu - power), also Then I flashed back to the . . .
Tried also to reflash once more, but I still have the error
Also became "charging_q1.jpg draw failed" when the phone is powered off & charging
regards
All ok after flashing KKA firmware !
regards
Edit: I figured out a way which worked to flash KL8 onto my device. I described the process here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21153439#post21153439
I've been having the exact same problem, trying to upgrade to either KL7 or KL8. I can reflash back down to KKA, but I'd like to figure out how to get on KL7 or KL8. Have you had any further success?
Hey guys have you managed to figure out what the cause of this problem is (logo q1.jpg draw failed) as i have the same when trying to flash with mobile odin pro
I think This file may be getting currupted some way,
This is samsung logo file. I am attaching it here. Try replace in following directory with Root Explorer
mnt/.lfs
Change permission
rwx rwx rwx (tick all option of (read write execute) owner group others
This happened to me twice with KKA using mobile odin, that wasnt how you flashed it was it?
Whilst mobile odin worked great on the galaxy s, i think it does struggle with the size of the notes roms and may work with some roms but not others, if possible avoid using it and follow the guides for setting up via pc Odin, after all if its stock firmware pc odin is fine to use, if its cooked firmware then just use cmw.
The reason i used mobile odin was that i wanted to retain root with the not directly rootable firmwares.
I havent installed cwm before..is it worth doing and will i be able to flash a newer firmware with it while retaining root?

If you see my post a few posts above, I linked to my explanation of how I got it working. I couldn't use Mobile Odin because I was having this "draw failed" problem, so I used CWM. Everything worked great and now I'm on KL8. I had to restore from a Titanium Backup because the KL8 version is apparently a wipe ROM, but if you use KL7, you may not even need to restore from a backup.
Cheers mananaged to do it. Got la1 with root and cwm..however my gmail force closes all the time now when i switch between accounts...

Have you tried using CWM to fix permissions? That could well do the trick.

I have no problems after a reboot you may be properly planted and these files are not opened to the root explover access (ro, rw)

[Q] Easier way to root and install CWM for LG black

Hi guys
I recently brought a 2nd hand LG black.
This rom is totally stock, to be precise, it is a Hong Kong version v20
Since I want to improve the battery life and have a more defined rom.
I would like to root and install CWM for my LG black.
Up to now, I have downloaded a few kdz from the subforum.
I have little experience before with LG phone, Last one i played around was LG P500. I remember last time i could easily root the phone by super1click, and then install rom manager from play store.
And from there (play store) i install CWM recovery.
I would like to find the confirmation from you guys that
Can i go for the same path again, super1click>rom manager>CWM recovery??
Thx in advance!!
Read my how to and find all you neeed
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
thx
I realised the way you suggest to install CWM as exactly as mine.
But you only suggest to use SOC to root for 2.2 devices
Is there any reasons I should not root a 2.3 by SOC?
Actually SOC is always the most comfortable way to root for me
Hope you can share some

Read post 3 about how to do it yourself and follow the youtube video guide mentioned there. It's really easy and safe.
To me:
Easiest
- Smartflashtool flash v10a
- Use mass storage for phone
- Download Gingerbreak.apk
- Transfer to phone mass storage
- Install app
- Root
- Open Play Store
- Download ROM Manager
-Flash CWM
Voila
Easiest but slowest

Hmm, complicated. Why not:
- Smartflashtool flash v20n that has CWM inside. This is the procedure.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23788913&postcount=170.You only need the V20n,0,s (any of them) in fls/bin format.
- Flash Superuser.zip in CWM
- Done.
thx everyone
finally i got it!!
now using zeus v7, very cool rom!
But one last question, can i use the same smartflash with patched .bin method to revery to stock if i mess up something.
for example i am on cm9 and i wanna go back to GB, or i have to repartition my phone just like other brands like samsung.

If you do not want JB: use ugly method. Download your firmware. Remove md5 extension, use Winrar od 7zip to remove all stuff exept kernel.bin.md5 and you have that kernel you are missing from that method. Do all those steps. And when you are finished use Triangle Away to reset binary counter to 0.

Thank you,
I just reading about Shaan hassle free method.
Added:
This is unbelievable, I unpacked root.zip and looked inside, busybox, su and superuser apks
and updater script... it's really simple, but it can't work...
Zip file should be signed with Samsung key in order to work.... AFAIK
I don't know how Shaan done it.
I'm think about using it, after read updater script I think if it work it can't broke my ROM
Stock recovery can' see root.zip file on sdcard I tried with card formated to FAT16 and FAT32, also fill with zeros (linux dd) my card and repartiotion it with gparted... no success.
I red again very carefully updater-script and AFAIK it could be installed from internal storage... so i tried...
signature verification failed.

So only ugly method.

If you do not want JB: use ugly method. Download your firmware. Remove md5 extension, use Winrar od 7zip to remove all stuff exept kernel.bin.md5 and you have that kernel you are missing from that method. Do all those steps. And when you are finished use Triangle Away to reset binary counter to 0.

Back to this option.
And KINGbabasula explain us how did you root GB with that.
P.S. That method with changing kernels works on same thing, pushing SU file in system/bin folder. SU is in rootkernel.bin md5 and yoh flash over your stock kernel because that rootkernel is not stable. So, problem is that there are no Odin flashable kernels for newer, updated firmwares. But you can make it by doing what I said.

Hello,
I'm come from HTC Desire, and I'm reading last two-three hours about rooting I9070, and really confused...
Firstly I found this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985199
My firmware is:
I9070XXLK2 I9070PRTLK1
unfortunately there isn't rooted firmware for me in thread above.
Nextly I found this (ugly method):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660419
and in addtion, this method for reseting binary counter:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137518
but, step 10 of this "ugly" procedure says:
"For other firmwares you can download appropriate kernels here"
and there isn't XXLK2 kernel.
Please point me in right direction, any links? threads?

[Q] Root SGS I9070 DDLK2

Hi All - very new to the forum an very new to Android. I have SGS I9070 DDLK2 (i am from India). Airtel is the provider.
I have been going thru the forum and tried to root the SGS, with the method in the below link:
h t t p: / / techdraginfo . blogspot . com / 2012 / 10 / how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s-advance
After that i installed the SU and Busybox from Google Play, but on my SU log's it reads - Binary outdated? i tap to update the update being, get error "no root access".. the busybox too i am unable to install (symfile is selected) its gives error "boot recovery" and the install fails. BUT i have both SU and Busybox in my application list? Is my phone rooted ?
I do not want to upgrade to JB, need GB only. as the software that i have will work only on 4.0.x... i need help from the forum to guide me on how to gain complete root access on I9070 with BG as OS... I am very novice at all this - was able to root as there were screen shots in the link that i used for rooting my SGS I9070.
Would appreciate your help... pls pls

Download your stock firmware from www.sammobile.com/firmware or http://samsung-updates.com/tag/firmware/ and attach me kernel.bin.md5 from that file. I will repack it for step 10. You can post that on that thread for rooting, maybe someone else needs it. And it will be easier to find there, then here on this one.

Just that. After that you will repeat all from that guide for rooting. And by this method you increase binary counter. Triangle away can reset it now for our phone.

Thank you soooo much. I really appreciate your help.. one last thing, let me know if the below steps are correct:
i will follow the link that you gave me to root
will download GT-I9070-root.rar, will extract ODIN
will enable USB debugging and mock location on the phone
turn off the phone and put it on download mode
Under PIT file browse for GT-I9070_EUR_XX_8G_20111220_KL6.pit, you have extracted this file before.
Under PDA choos rootkernel.tar.md5
Then check what options are checked (Selected), be sure to UNCHECK (remove selction) Re-Partition, Flash Lock, Phone EFS Clear, Phone Bootloader Update! Only Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time should be checked (Selected)
When this is set just press Start and wait for phone to reboot
Now repeat steps from 4 to 9, with one exception at step 7 I will CHOOSE THE FILE THAT YOU REPACKED FOR ME....
let the phone boot
Install SU / Busybox and Traingle away....
and i will be done - pls let me know.... :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

I think you even do not need to use pit file. Yes, that is it. And install Superuser, no SuperSU. I think we had problems with SuperSU, and Superuser worked fine.
Op : so you mail me, i give you the method and you make a new thread? I mean what the fcuk?

I use SuperSU on JB now, but on GB I didn't have root access when I used it (didn't work at all). No need to change.
LOL, you can easy find it. Here.
Need to uninstall first SuperSU.
Huh, thinking I use an wrong application , but from what I read, chainfire (SuperSU) update released more than chainsDD tuned, and that's why I asked more details about that.

So now everything works fine? Install app superuser from play store, open it and find in options update binary. You will have it I think when you go in left once.

Thanks for the reply Gilang, I've tried every version that I've found and given that I've done a factory reset and emptied all the caches I can find
there should be room, but I will look into that. Thing is, if you're right, how to make room?

Superuser binary:0.93 SUPERSU Location:/system/xbin/su
Busybox binary/Busybox is available. Lonation/[/system/xbin/busybox]
Busybox applets/ BusyBox v1.20.2 Stericson. Busybox offers 204 applets
Viper if I was an ancient greek I'd build a temple to you Think I'll just hit lotsa thank buttons.
Now gonn start search "How to unlock the beast"
