Dude seriously? I hate to flame you but damn. :-/ First off wrong section! There is a q and a section for questions. Second off there is already countless threads and post about this exact thing! Do research! Search! Read! maybe you don't deserve super user permissions on your phone. Jesus! You know what I apologize... Can we be friends? Nvflash cwm recovery onto your phone. Install weapon g2x from recovery. Voila root! Oh yeas one more thing, thread closed!

Not sure if this is the correct fourm but since i didnt see a tech support forum figured this might be the most logical spot to put it.
My current device is a Samsung galaxy s 4g
Carrier T mobile
Rom
[ROM][CWM] T959VUVKD1 - Deodexed FIXED
Flashed with Odin3 v1.7
The issue i had is i wanted to install the bali kernel onto the phone i downloaded the 2.1 kernel from the forums non UV version but i don't know how to flash it. I tried to find it in the forums but i don't really see any clear directions how to flash it some say clockwork don't have it don't know how to install it. Sorry for my nubness. Then i did try to flash it using odin3 which soft bricked the phone phone computer with a little line going though it. Fixed that without much issue.
Id like Try out non stock kernels and i love what u guys do with the roms but i guess im a little stumped cause i don't know how to eather a find the missing apps i needed or how to flash it properly though odin3. If im totally off the mark im sorry and please forgive me again for my noobness.

OK your probably gonna here some $h1t for not searching but I'll Hook you up. OK you need to go to the cwm final post by krylon360. That will get you cwm. Once u have cwm setup you will boot into recovery and select reinstall packages, this puts you into cwm.
Know to flash the kernel go to "install zip from sdcard" and locate the zip( Bali kernel ) and confirm installation. Let it do its thing and BAM you have Bali kernel. HOPE THIS HELPS YA.
**edit**
To navigate in recovery and cwm use the volume keys to go up and down and power to select.

hey i did look but i guess i was looking for the wrong thing cause everything i came up seemed to be for different devices. Guess im a little more stumped cause the first file i downloaded off the fourm post i found seemed to be a html file? IF that is correct then ok ill go from there and i assume once i stick the zip file on the root of the sd card reboot to recovery mode and install it? This is what i was more confused about then anything.

No, flashing a kernel will not make you have to reinstall anything.

[ROOT] G2X Gingerbread 2.3.3. stock ROM with flashable zip in Clockworkmod Recovery works with stock froyo or your stock Ginger ,there's also an unroot zip

Noodles is right. It's a VERY simple process when you follow the instructions. It seems like no matter how many people I tell about this, it never catches on and G2x users keep saying "it's not possible." It either needs to be stickied, or added to the "[REF] ALL ROMS | ROOTING | FAQs | STICKIES | POSTING RULES | Read Before Posting" that's already stickied.
*EDIT:
just PMed the author of the thread I just mentioned. Hopefully he'll add it to his list...
Seriously, simplest process.. unbrickable in my opinion.. back and forth.. root and unroot so many times with this, especially since I've had 3replacements .. I probably sent 2 back with the green signals by mistake but they're all unrooted when I sent them

Everyone starts where you are. It's ok!
May I suggest getting acquainted with the XDA forum first.

There are items at the top of each forum called stickies. They're articles that everyone should read. Read the ones at the top of the general and development forums.
You should familiarize yourself with Odin, which will allow you to flash a ROM with CWM. Check out the Bible.

There is also Heimdall (for win, mac, and linux) which uses the same protocol as Odin (loke), but is open-source and is not leaked unsupported software.
There is a lot to read about. The point I'm making is we can type the same thing over and over in this forum, but most of what were talking about is in a sticky thread.
Lol thanks guys but I am no noob I just feel like one. I had a vibrant for 6 months and was a daily flasher. Just having trouble with clockwork on the 4g.

Well, read the sticky posts, and try my new kernel
It comes with CWM and Voodoo Lagfix.

Thank you. I appreciate the help. I will try this when I get home from school. It's kind of commical, I have no choice but to do this on my mac because it boot camp stopped loading my windows 8 beta. So I figured alright no problem I will do it on my dads laptop. I stay it up and tried opening internet explorer and that computer now has a trojan virus lol.

I upgraded my 2.2 rooted Cappy to 2.3.5 using Samsung Mini Kies everything worked perfect and now I want to root my phone again, any help with this?
P.D.: I dont want to flash any custom kernels or any custom anything as I saw on another thread, I just want to re-root my phone.
Sorry friend but you're going to have to have to flash a new kernel to allow you to root.

I agree. The method currently posted is way too complicated

As the sticky at the top of the forum says, do not post questions here in General, post them in Q&A.
Hi, dont know if this has been asked before, but it's there a way to somehow install another kernel (maybe overclocked) instead of the current kernel? And I like the HTC camera present in Sense ROMs instead of the camera in MIUI (my current ROM) or in Cyanogen ROMs. Can I install the HTC camera over my current one?

First of this should be in the Q & A section and the search function isn't broken but here is a kernel

Just flash it in recovery like a ROM. Be sure to wipe cache and salvia prior to flashing.

Yes just look for compatible kernel for your rom and flash, backup first.

The search button is yours and everyones friend. I can say never once did I started a new thread asking a question that's already been asked. Actually the only thread I've ever started was one thanking the devs and the people making guides on how to do anything with this phone. This is my 1st android and I've flashed a few ROMs and kernels in the few months Ive had it cause of the info I found here. And I've never had any problems. All the info you'll ever need(and some you dont) is on XDA. And if after a relentless search for your question leads to nothing, then by all means ask away. Not tryin to hate, just stating facts
Thanks creglenn. I can never seem to find the right section to post in. il look there.

Well, since the thread is already created, can anyone tell me if it's possible to for example to install the music player from MIUI into my Eaglesblood ROM?
