Hello guys,
I've bought my Samsung galaxy S a few days ago, and have updated it to Froyo 2.2. I 've been trying to root it for the lagfix ever since, however, no matter what method I use, it ain't working. I tried the z4root and one click root, everytime i get to the recovery menu to update sdcard, it says the file cant be found, i try to put the file to that exact folder, it aint working either. some help would be greatly appreciated

Alright so I have a Droid 1. I was originally running 2.1 and was rooted and everything was fine. I found a one click root for froyo so I unrooted my phone and updated to froyo. When the phone was updated I downloaded z4root and rooted my phone and it worked until another update popped up and I agreed to update again. After the new update I had superuser permission still but all Apps that require root failed so I tried rooting again and it says I'm already rooted. I've done everything I can think of and nothing. I do not have a computer so my options are limited. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Let me preface this by saying I am fairly new with rooting and flashing /flamesuit. I have a sprint galaxy tab that I rooted (or tried to root I should say) using z4root. I applied a permanent root and everything went fine. I then installed rom manager to help with putting clockworkmod and flashing roms. My tab has the superuser app on it, but rom manager still displays an error message that says my tab needs to be rooted before I can use it, I cant even install cwmod. At this point I'd just like to start over and use a different method to root the tab but everytime I try to remove the root using z4 the tab vibrates a few times before force closing. If there is something I could use to restore my tab without clockworkmod I would be very appreciative if someone could bring it to my attention.
Thanks
Try using SuperOneClick to UNroot your tab.
do a search of the forums for z4root
Hello all,
I have had my Galaxy i5500 for awhile now and have used odin to flash updates for the firmware etc.
I have recently rooted my phone using Superoneclick and this worked fine. Overclocked the phone, and ran a number of Apps using SuperUser Access to gain all the benefits from this.
I installed Titanium Backup and Installed it on my SD Card, this caused a number of problems and I had to pull the battery on my phone to reboot it. Anyway it then hung at the GT-I5500 screen and I ended up having to download a new firmware (not custom) and use Odin to update it.
I now have a working phone, however I now can't root it. I have tried Superoneclick, that no longer works. I have also tried Universal Androot..with that I get an error message of Root Failed - No Fu Guu (or something like that) and I have just tried using z4root... with that it says acquiring Root Shell and then it just kicks me out...have checked and it's not rooted.
I also can't seem to access the reboot menu on my phone (the one where you press a couple of buttons to enter the menu where you can factory set your phone.
Can anyone shed any light on this? Other than these problems mentioned, the phone works as it should
Solved....
It took awhile of trying different root software but.... after reflashing my phone with another stock rom, I found Super One Click still didn't work, nor did z4root or universal Androot (I'm guessing it would have worked without reflashing a different rom).
I did however find that Unlock Root 2.2 worked! My phone is now flashed, no error messages and I have Superuser Access!! Now time to install a custom bootloader and start with the custom roms!!
Okay I've got myself into quite the predicament. Here is what happened. First of all I have been enjoying the benefits of having root access on my Indulge. When I heard there was an official Gingerbread update for this phone I decided to give it a go and install it using Kies Mini. It installed fine and everything worked great! There was but one problem...I could not root it. I searched forever for a solution, but could not find one. After awhile I decided to give up. I decided to downgrade back to 2.2.1 Froyo using this method. That was a very bad mistake. All this method does is overwrite the /system partition. Yes I am now running Froyo, however, the Gingerbread updated more than just the /system partition. In the About Phone it says my Firmware version is 2.2.1, but it says my Baseband version is EL06 when it should be EE05. I wouldn't have a problem with any of this if it weren't for the CONSTANT reboots. I am able to use my phone for ten minutes max before it reboots again...In fact it just did it again. Now I have tried to reinstall the Gingerbread upgrade, but Kies Mini says "Unregistered Device" in the "Firmware Version" and I am unable to receive the upgrade. I am guessing this is because it cannot detect which Firmware my phone has. I have also tried doing a factory reset many times with no luck. I have lost all hope. Will somebody please help me? I don't care if I end up with Froyo or Gingerbread, root or no root, I just want my phone to work!
