Just make sure you have ClockworkMod Recovery installed... and be sure to wipe everything before you install... Also, fix permissions after it's installed.

Ok so I don't need to upgrade to stilick gingerbread? And I'm sorry but what do you mean by permissions? Thanks alot

No, not unless you want the new baseband because I've yet to see a easy to apply it without the update. Could be wrong. And that's for you to decide, but the the baseband improved signal and gps response on my phone.

Software Question

So I have 2.2.1 and I was wondering is it possible just to update it to 2.3.2 without downloading a rom or rooting it? I like it the way it is. And is there also a way to recover the Inception file??

how are you going to install a 2.3.2 rom if you don't want to download it?
besides, 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 are the newest gingerbread roms.
Gb isn't out for stock yet your gonna have to wait if u don't want to root and rom

Just flash this as a normal rom?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Correct. Flash this in cwm like any other rom. Just after your first boot go back into cwm and fix permissions .

What exactly is the difference from this or 2.3.5?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Wish to know... not sure if its a worthwhile update. from what i gather it fixes the voice search bug.
Acording to samsung touchscreen improvements. Other then that i do not know. Flash it. Check it out. Its best to be on the curent software anyway. Im glad we got and update so soon. Was unexpected. And i hope this is the case with our ice cream sandwich update as well. Lol a gift sooner then expected.

Doesnt this ROM have apps stripped out of it. I am looking for a official build not one modified by user and customized.
Anybody just have a copy of the update pushed out by AT&T. I looked in my cache to see if the fota is there and its not.

Make sure you have USB debugging checked under apps/development, that's one cause for superoneclick freezing if I remember right.

Install the pre-rooted rom listed in the dev section. Really is no use in rooting when Samsung lets use flash the phone with custom roms via odin.
Bhundven's One-Clicks in the Dev section are excellent. All are based on KJ6 and two are already rooted.

Most of the ROMs in the dev section are rooted. What ROM are you currently running?
EDIT: It says above you are on GB 2.3.6. If you are - SuperOneClick V2.3.3 will work. Go to this thread, read the OP - all of it - hell watch the video if you need to, then go here and download the current version. And lastly be patient while it is running.
You can also read this thread for EASY ways to flash kernels once rooted and get on custom ROMs.
I encourage you to READ THE WIKI BEFORE DOING ANYTHING TO YOUR PHONE!

Someone correct me if im wrong, but in order to root this phone you need to flash an already rooted ROM, you must use the nvflash link that was provided for you no matter what, and then once CWM is flashed, flash a ROM.
Hope this helped!

Ding ding we have a winner. Nvflash cwm recovery then install rom. All the roms you will find here unless it specifically says for warranty purpose are rooted. Super one click hasn't worked since froyo

I rooted stock 2.3.4. IMHO what is the point of super one click if you have to flash a rooted Rom to gain root (you don't)

ill try using super one click again. if it dosent work i guess ill have to try to nv flash it again
Super one click doesn't put cwm recovery on the phone if you want rooted stock kwes has one pre made flash through cwm easy as pie guys. I dont understand why you would want your phone rooted with no recovery installed. Just makes it harder to fix if you mess up
