[Q] at&t Samsung Captivate 2.2 unlock without SIM

Hi All,
I am trying to unlock a brand new at&t locked samsung captivate. Details:
Model - Samsung-SGH-I897
Firmware - 2.2
Kernel - 2.6.32.9
Build - FROYO.UCKB2
I have the USB debugging enabled and *#7465625# gives me Network Lock [ON].
I don't have at&t sim so was trying to follow --> 1) This <-- and --> 2) This <-- and --> 3) This <--.
And just now tried --> 4) This too <-- and this is the farthest I have reached till now.
But I am facing problems.
1) When Generate_Code.bat is run it gives this:
Code:
Copy nv_data.bin
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
failed to copy '/efs/nv_data.bin' to './nv_data.bin': Permission denied
Extract code
2) When SuperOneClick is run and Root button is clicked then it halts at:
Rooting device... -Step #7 WaitForDevice 0.15s
and then it stops responding.
3) I have android-sdk-windows on my machine and its in the env path. When I do "adb shell" I get a "$" prompt. But when I do "su" it says "su: Not Found".
So I am not able to use this method too.
4) When followed the steps my phone rebooted and I can see the Android system recovery screen. I selected the "Reinstall Packages" from the menu but then it says:
E: Signature Verification Failed
Installation Aborted.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So till now this is also not working. I am still looking.
Is there anything that I am missing? (I am still reading)
Is it possible to unlock 2.2 without root and without at&t sim?
Is it possible to root 2.2 with SuperOneClick with the default settings?
Thanks

I don't know anything about unlocking, but the errors you are getting are because you are not rooted. I would try another method for getting root and then try again.

Do you have USB debugging turned on?

I am still reading more about different methods to get root and will try it tonight and yes I have USB debugging on.
I was just wondering if I would be able to do it without getting root but if that is the only way, I will have to do that...!!

You need root to unlock your device. Current method which you are using (Super One Click) is unable to root your phone. Try another method, may be Galaxy S One Click root. I haven't rooted Stock Froyo (KB1 or KB2) so I'm not sure which method will surely work.
Once you are rooted, try again with unlocking methods. And yes, you should be able to unlock without AT&T SIM.

Now I have tried Captivate One Click Root also and this is the farthest I have gone till now. This link explains correctly but now when my phone reboots and I do a Reinstall Packages - it says
E:signature verification failed. Installation Aborted.

So still looking...

[Q] HELP! Stuck at * daemon started successfully * (zergRush root method)

Hi everyone,
I am using a white Galaxy Note w/ GB 2.3.6 (KK2 kernel).
I've read in a different forum that users are able to use the exploit for KK1 works as well for KK2/KK3/KK4.
I downloaded zergRush KK1 (root + CWM), and ran the file: not-rooted-yet.bat
A CMD window pops up and the process halts after it says: * daemon started successfully *.
I have the ADB drivers installed, and both "USB debugging" and "Unknown sources" ticked.
I ran the BAT file whilst the phone was in Charge mode only.
I don't know why the rooting process + installation of CWM keeps on failing.
Please help!!
Thanks.
EDIT:
This is how CMD looks like:
CONFIRM ALL THE ABOVE THEN
Press any key to continue...
--- STARTING ---
--- WAITING FOR DEVICE ---
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
(the process completely halts here)

I rooted my device using ODIN

If you rooted with a kernel you probably initiated the binary flash counter which could give you trouble regarding warranty issues

I think KK2 is not supported, at least not by CF Root for cwm. You can root however with DoomLORD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360. You`ll have root and busybox but no cwm. Download rom manager from market and flash recovery (cwm) with that. Good luck If you have connection problems try another usb port.

[ROOT] root for VS910ZV8 and V9 without downgrade

Well i was in development today for trying to find a way to root the latest firmware from LG that locks out a lot of the phone for flashers like me who dont use VZW service ne ways i have officially achieved root on VS910ZV8 and VS910V9 without having to downgrade it. Basically I used the LG Esteem Exploit found by djrbliss the link to his blog about the esteem and the zip is attached just execute run.bat and after a few reboots enjoy root without all the extra time and effort of downgrading
http://vulnfactory.org/blog/2012/02/15/re-rooting-the-lg-esteem/

Anyone try this yet?

Nope but I just spent an hour downgrading then re-rooting then upgrading again lol! I just saw this when I refreshed the page to get Broken out. Thanks for finding this though!! I'm sure it will help a lot of people!

I did
I actually did that monday when i recieved my replacment...didnt know there was issues rooting still..iv only used that one to root sence it was posted..work'd with 0 issues for me..was teathering again in no time

Yes this works fine.

may be a dumb question, but if you root with this and leave the stock recovery on, how would you go about unrooting without flashing a .tot and removing all traces of root?
i have always used mt's unroot .bat to unroot

From what I read in the .bat all it is doing it pushing the busybox file, the su file and the superuser.apk. So essentially, all you would have to do is delete those 3 files and you should be unrooted If I'm correct.

Have you tried the autorun from the phone that has the driver install included with it or look in the system folder and pull the iso and unrar it to get the exe to run

anybody able to cwm on after using this method? how'd you do it?

Polly could do the flash_image process and rename recovery from boot.p in the file system

If you don't have those options on the phone and computer can't communicate I made that mistake when i first got my phone too.

Works 100%
Great find. Just LGPNST back to v8 stock then ran the root and it worked like a charm.

Just ran this yesterday, worked like a charm. I didn't need to do any prep at all.

Do the "factory reset". Erasing all data of course...

To try factory reset from recovery menu
1. turn off the phone
2. press vol down + power
3. waiting vibrate 2 times and release button
4. choose wipe data/factory reset
after that re-root again
don't forget setting debugging mode
before root.

First step would be to disconnect any other Android device.
Second one, put the phone to Airplane mode, you can do with some patience even with the SystemBackup.apk installed. Switch USB mode to "charging only".
If that doesn't help, you can still do a reset.

Do you have the Android SDK installed and are you running the root.bat as an Administrator?

Sorry @XperiaPlayer but, I don't have the Android SDK installed, and my root goes perfect...
You're sure that matters?

Shift + right click the folder where the root.bat is located and type adb devices (or adb.exe devices) and paste the output here.

First that official app is not installed and if you are able to install that stop working when you click on unlock button that means that app is of no use.
