[Q] Rooting method - Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What if i follow that method?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAsYMO0cIxg
i know that the advance is not listed, but the combination vol+, middle, power works and the zip file contains only superuser after all...
does the flash counter will mark +1 in this case?

This method is not working for our phone. Superuser is not the problem, you can install it via Play store. Look in bin folder. That provide root. If it work, we wouldn't bother with this method we use... As I know it couldn't be flashed in stock recovery.

Hm, I do not know.

I recommend using the method found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985199

Samsung recovery will not install an update.zip without Samsung's cryptographic signature.
Trying will not increase your flash counter.

if you have downloaded any firmware open the firmware file with alphazip there you will see recovery file extract it then with alphazip create a .tar file and put recovery in that tar file then flash the tar file with Odin in PDA section you will get stock recovery.
I have to say you sorry because neither i have downloaded any firmware nor I can use odin to flash anything because I haven't any computer,so please tell me any other process like above you tell me about unrooting .Thank you for helping me.

He already answered your problem.. Do what he said using root explorer.. You don't need a pc to do this.. Uninstall superuser app I must add..
If you have cwm installed and you don't have a pc, then that would be a problem.. Not heard of a stock recovery flashable through cwm..

the only way to your problem was mobile Odin but mobile Odin is not compatible with sgm so a PC is the single solution you can use a friends pc

Hi , what is done by flashing cwm? I guess either it replace some files in system by deleting them or overwrite them . If someone knows about those files then we could get stock recovery back .or not?
And one question more. How to hard reset after flashing cwm?
The hard reset code *2767*3855# now not working.
Thanks for your kind help.

please read 10th post of this thread for removing cwm
to hard reset go to recovery (by switching on the phone while pressing home+power button) then scroll up and down with volume buttons, scroll down to delete data and factory reset(something like this)and press menu button to select it
code will not work as it is now cwm recovery
Hi Mr Dhlalit I have read that post and thanks for help. I just only want to know about the effect of flashing cwm on system files so that we can backup the effected files by root explorer .

[Q] galaxy s i9000 root and clockworkmod confusion

hey guys,
i was wondering what was the easiest way to root and install clockworkmod recovery on my phone?
i have realized that you have probably seen this question many times before and i apologize for that. i have tried searching for this and although i have found many results i find myself confused about which one is best and easiest to do.
all i am asking is if anyone could possibly post a link to and easy to follow guide to accomplish this
sorry and thanks in advance
The easiest is to flash the root package ( should end in .tar) into the PDA section via Odin with your phone in Download Mode

okay so ive had a look the the cf-root method that you have suggested, it looks pretty straight forward the only thing is im not sure which file to download.
my build number is FROYO.DTJP5
if someone would kindly write down the file name of what i need that would be greatly appreciated
U should get a better firmware like jw4...
And cf root for it is easily available...
if my post helped, don't mind hitting thanks ;-)

Sounds like you need to reinstall the Samsung drivers..... but if it is recognized with the new room then do what the guy above said

i have no idea why
i dont know if this is related or not but when i extract the file i got from the cf-root thread it is not one that i can use in odin so i use the file i downloaded and it is still a tar file

[Q] Ingress (Google Game)

Its not working for me, stuck at "Booting nyantic software..."
Im in stock rom, just rooted and twrp recovery, tried with coCore kernel 4, same result.
I had the same problem with Galaxy SL (i9003) but when I updated to a custom 4.1 rom it worked fine.
So I am wondering if anyone could figure out how to make it work with this device.
I have a stock non rooted rom,
I installed the app it ask for allow permission to google account, i clicked allow, for me it is asking a activation code. Someone knows what is it.

To all having this issue, I can finally say I have found a solution FIX, someone posted a modified version for MDPI devices (I know it is not a mdpi) that worked like a charm, I just installed the .apk and worked flawlesly, then installed normal 1.12.5 .apk over it and still working. It seems like its an issue with the app that must be fixed.

You didn't tell us did you have stock or custom system bofore. If custom, this problem is caused by that I think. If nothing shows up probably you will have to go to service.

Try Odin v3.07 if that doesn't work try v3.04 make sure you installed samsung drivers and kies is not running in the background. Also have 70-80% charge on phone then boot to download mode and use Odin.
