Version of the captivate - Captivate General

Hello XDA.
I am going to be receiving my captivate from eBay that I ordered a few days back. Front at the seller told me, it's never been rooted. What I want to find out is there is different versions of the hardware that could make the rooting process different or is it the same root process for all of 2.1 or 2.2 what ever it's on.
Thanks

[Q] SuperOneClick unrootable?

Okay, so i come from the Nexus One now having the T-Mobile G2X which is a pretty good phone and already some roots have came out which is great since i could try to back up all my apps from my Nexus One to my new T-Mobile G2X.
Okay, i know the the Universal Androot has the ability to root and unroot your phone with a simple touch of just one button WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader or even restarting
(If you guys didnt know about this, click here to learn more)
Okay, so i heard there is a new app called "SuperOneClick" but im not sure if it works for the T-Mobile G2X (Yes, i know there is something called Google and yes i googled it but i get like 20 different answers)
So im asking this:
Is this "SuperOneClick" compatible with the T-Mobile G2X?
Will it be able to root AND unroot my phone with one touch? (Like the Universal Androot)
Also, there are many threads about this and i cant find the original thread but i know its from this forum, can someone post a link to the thread about this "SuperOneClick" or maybe a thread that tells you how to root the T-Mobile G2X using the "SuperOneClick"?
Thanks!

Tried unrooting with the Super One Click method and was unssuccessful...I checked other forums and ran across this explanation at this website http://forum.samdroid.net was able to unroot without the SuperOne click method...I didnt create this method but if anyone else benefits from this post, than I think thats great. And if I have not posted this currectly, I apologize, it was not my purpose to take credit from anyone else !

[Q] 4.22.651.2 Gingerbread Auto Root???

Hi XDA DEVELOPERS, can you find an auto root software for the new gingerbread 4.22.651.2 update? I didn't know when you update to the new 4.22.651.2 gingerbread; you can't use any of the previous rooting programs to root a phone such as the Evo 4G. I would really appreciate your help or the help of the forum community, because i really want to root my Evo 4G Thanks.
I would agree I got my new phone today (old one was broken and was rooted) and I cant seem to root my new phone I have 4.22.651.2, 2.3.3 AV, and 2.15_003 PRI. If you can point me to a rooting solution I would greatly appreciate it.
how about rooting it yourself ??

LOL yeah really 'helpful'
Is there any sign of root for the 4.22.651.2 update? my replacement came with it and this Sprint garbage is horrible. I had MIUI previously and miss root access. Unfortunately I'd have no idea where to start to look to do it myself.....So is there anything going on with it?
I'm in the same boat. The right 1cm of my screen stopped responding to touch input, so they sent me a replacement with 4.22.651.2 and 2.15.00.05.02 baseband. Really missing root and CM7 right now!
I'm having the same issue. I thought I was gonna be slick and root my phone in 10 min. I tried unrevoked3 but no luck. I got an error saying my firmware was too new. I'm seaching for a solution but no luck at this time.

Android 2.3.4 root?

I am trying to find a working Rooting method for Android 2.3.4 on LG phones.
I have tried out some of the popular rooting methods including gingerbreak but they do not seem to work. Anyone has had success with rooting Android 2.3.4 phones? My searches have not been successful in finding any good results, so I am asking here. Thank you in advance.
You have the wrong idea. Rooting a device is not brought in general - like saying once a phone has a certain android version, then all android phones with that software version can be rooted (This is the idea you have which is wrong). Different devices may take different methods to be rooted. Like, Gingerbreak may work on the nexus s, but may not work on some other device running Gingerbread. And to answer your question, yes. Many people have rooted android devices running 2.3.4 (and just for your information - ALL android versions so far can be rooted).
I have a MyTouch 4g, running 2.3.4. You wouldnt happen to know any ways to root it, would you? Thanks man
you can try http://revolutionary.io/ select myTouch 4G Slide it may work on ur phone but as always no guaranties do it on your own risk, some more links:

Well usually different phones have different methods to root the,just google it with the exact name of your device and you will get how to do it....!

Um, unless I missed a memo, then your phone has already been rooted because the MT4G has not been updated to 2.3.4 via OTA officially. You may be running a custom stock ROM that reads as 2.3.4 though because some people just want the stock look without all the bloatware (Telenav, TMO TV, etc). So, download Root Checker from the Market and see if it tells you that you have root. If not, then you shouldn't be running 2.3.4 yet.
Also, go here for everything you need to know about rooting and installing custom ROMs on the MT4G: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=796

The maker of the phone isn't terribly important. The model of the phone is - such as Optimus or G2x.
In the upper right corner of this site there's a box for "find your device..." type in your phone model and it'll take you to the forum for that particular phone and you'll be able to learn all you need for that model. Best of luck to you!

Root for Sharp 006SH

Has anyone ever rooted a Sharp 006SH? I need help and i've tried gingerbreak and superoneclick.
Nobody? Someone has had to try this.

I'm sure someone has tried, but almost certainly failed. The 006SH is the successor of the 003SH, so if anything it has better security. Nobody has fully cracked the 003SH to my knowledge (Check on these forums if you don't believe me), so it stands to reason that nobody has cracked the 006SH either.
This is manly due to the fact that Japanese Andorid hacking community sucks.
Actually they do have full root and NAND unlocking for the 003/005SH and it appears that the method being used is applicable to other phones too.

The process has already been ported across to the 007SH (http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1766709-Softbank-007SH-Unlock-FOUND!), so no reason to believe it wouldnt work for the 006
For now, you should be able to get temporary root with SHBreak:
