I wud go with CF-Root-JP6-v1.2-Busybox-1.15.3.zip

1. Go back to stock GB [This will important as you need GB Bootloader]: Flashing To Original Rom - Using Odin on GT-i9000
2. Root your device: Rooting GT-I9000 2.3.3 [India DDJV9]
3. Install ICS: Installing Ice-cream Sandwich 4.0.4 On Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000
4. Install JB: Installing Jelly Bean 4.1 on Galaxy S GT-I9000
ENJOY

gopalasubramanium, what means GB? i don't have stock GB?
And i can't install directly jelly bean?

Root with Z4root APP
Download , connect your phone to the computer, mount SD card and copy the APK file to Internal SD card
Now launch a File Manager in your device.
If you dont have installed any file manager on your phone download one of your choice from Google Play
(Astro File Manager, ES File Explorerm OI File Manager, …).
Once you are done downloading the file manager,
launch Z4Root.apk file and follow onscreen instruction to install Z4root APK you earlier copied to SD card root.
Once the app is installed on your phone, launch z4root app and when it will be opened click on the “Root” button in application.
Wait for the process to finish and reboot your device once it is done.
After reboor, your device will be rooted.
If you dont get rooted with z4root, install first busybox from Google Play and then install Z4Root. Some devices have this requirement.
Let me know....

GB means Ginger Bread. It's highly advisable that you follow the order I have mentioned.

[Q] how to root gingerbread 2.3.3

How can i root the gingerbread 2.3.3 on the galaxy S I9000?
My phone was rooted and then I installed gingerbread 2.3.3 and then the root was gone. Anyone know how to root this?
thanks in advance
Depends on which 2.3.3 version is your phone - JVK< JVB< JVH< JVO. You could flash the chainfire's CF-Root 3.2 kernel coz it's pretty clean and simple. Just go in his thread and I think in post No 6 you'll find the latest versions - just download the one for your ROM, unzip it to get the .tar zip and flash it as a PDA through odin - you'll get both root and CWM

I have JVK. I downloaded this gingerbread 2.3.3 :
and then i went to that topic you said and installed 3.2. But maybe I installed the wrong one. Do you know which one i have to instal?
this is my info:
firmware: 2.3.3
baseband: 19000xxjvk
kernel: 2.6.35.7- i9000xwjvh-cl184813 [email protected] #2
buildnumber: gingerbread.xxjvk
I think it was the kernel I last downloaded. So I reinstalled gingerbread 2.3.3 to remove the root.
i9001
firmware: 2.3.3
baseband: I9001BUKE2
kernel: 2.6.35.7- perf

As I read in this post, you have to flash an older stock rom, root it, then flash the new stock rom using mobile-odin with keep root option on.
Text from the post:
"As New ROMs are not direct rootable, you cant root it direct method like Zergrush exploit or CF-Root, If you want such new ROMs Rooted, You shud have currant Older ROM installed, If you are not rooted and flashed Newer ROM, first downgrade to older ROM as above said.then you may update n Root it with one of following two methods."
XXLA6
i want also root my note
Baseband Version : N7000XXLA4
Buildnumber: GINGERBREAD.XXLA6
KERNEL: 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA6-CL907341 [email protected]#2
anyone how and what to use
As jellevanb wisely stated... This thread holds the answers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
I was on La6, flashed KKA with PC Odin, then used CF-Root for KKA (props to Chainfire for his amazing work) then flashed LA6 on-device using CWM Manager that was installed with CF-Root. Now I have La6 with root
I also was on LA6, flashed AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo.tar with PC Odin then used CF-Root-SGN_XX_SER_LA6-v5.0-CWM5. It worked for me.
The easiest way to gain root would be this:

You can install cf -root kernel, look at it in forum development
Sent from Galaxy S ICS
thx.
thx for information bt i forgot to say this,
im new here.
so can u link it or something plz?
i could find so many development menu in this forum so i dont knw where i should search that thing.
download superuser from the market, if you can use it then your phone is rooted
thx mate
i can download and run superuser bt theres nothing in it.
no apps list and no log information appears.
does it mean mines not rooted? or yes?
only apps that requires root is displayed in the apps list and log. yeah your phone is rooted if still in doubt find an app in the market that requires root
gud gud gud
hmmmmmm thx.
bt why my phone is so gay if my phones already rooted?
everyone says phones r getting faster at running apps or else but mines so slow.
anything i hav to do for that?
rooting is the same as having administrator rights on windows pc, it doesnt improve anything but instead gives you rights to modify your system. try RAM Manager Free from the market, it can improve your phone.
you can also download CF-Root-ext4-v1.3-Addon.apk from chainfire's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108&highlight=chainfire
after you download the .apk put it in your phone and install it, open the app and click convert to ext4. this is basically a lagfix.
IF u want ur phone faster and stable and long battery life life try to install custom rom. It depends upon ur test which one u like...i suggest you to install DarkyRom its much stable , faster and better battery life..!

[Q] Noob wanting to root

Hiya all, first post
Here's an old one...i want to root my galaxy note ...
My model is gt-n7000 running android 2.3.6
Baseband n7000xxla4
Kernel LA6
Build gingerbread.xxla6
Even though many of you more technically advanced may find it very easy i have trawled the net & YouTube & just do not know what way to safely go about it!
It's so simple to download a set of files & it does look easy to do but there are a few different ways,
Can anyone please help?
Many thanks in advance

For firmware KL7 or later you can't root directly. So you need to flash as stock, but pre-rooted ROM using PC Odin for example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1352945&referrerid=4386116
After this, flash a Kernel that has CWM 5 and is compatibel to CF Root Kernel (with Mobil ODIN - see market) like this one:

Follow the tutorial on a rom, what you want to install... I think you will have to root your device, then go to JVU Stock 2.3.6 Gingerbread rom, then you free to install any CM9 or CM10

First xou have to root your device, then you have to install the cwm recovery, download the Rom and the gapps from a thread. Next you have to do a backup if you want to go back to 2.1. And after this you have to do a full wipe from recovery and then install the Rom and afterwards the gapps and then reboot.
Hope i helped
You can try superoneclick to root your phone. I was on 2.3.3 I9000M and rooted using one click tool. The tool supports many other models. Make sure USB debugging is enabled and all the drivers are installed. Connect your phone and turn on USB, choose auto under Exploit section and click root. Download the tool (Latest Version) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
If rooting process is Successful, superuser will be installed automatically in your phone.

Model: GT-I9000T
Firmware Version: 2.1-update1
Baseband Version: I9000TUBJG7
Kernel Version: 2.6.29
[email protected] #2
Build Number: ECLAIR.UBJG5
did you figure anything out? I found the firmware (2.3.3) for my model and country (Trinidad and Tobago) at samsung updates but my problem is that I don't know which Odin program to use for my model.
I was thinking about using the update method intended for the GT-I9000 to update my I9000T to gingerbread. Apparently the phones are identical except that the GT-I9000T supports 850 MHz 3G while the GT-I9000 supports 900 MHZ 3G instead. I am wondering if it will work without bricking my phone
