Is there any other ways to root my phone besides the "One-Click-Root" I think it takes to long and I want to root my phone fast. Does z4root still work on.this phone or will it just brick my phone?

I think z4 works on froyo.....not gb. Just Odin flash one of honks kernels for root and cwm...see dev section.

Z4root is not going to work. Either use Superoneclick or Odin.

Read relative links on the Bible link at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117554 , especially those relating to using Odin to flash for the first time.
Odin is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=557757&d=1301649433
GB rooted kernels are at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194032, but you need to flash GB bootloaders through Chadsters KG4 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183413 prior to flashing a GB kernel if you are still on Froyo.
You can also just follow FBis251's guide for getting on GB at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223765
Froyo kernal ( Bali3.3UV ) is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1080871
Download and open Odin, pull battery from sgs4g, connect USB, hold both up/down vol buttons while reinserting battery....phone should be in download mode and show up in ODIN. Follow OP instructions for whatever Rom / Kernel you are flashing for which files to place where....don't change any options in Odin...just put the files in correct location and hit start. If you are on Froyo, then maybe start with Bali3.3 to get acquainted with Odin and the SGS4G
If you are not 100% on the process after reading the guides then I would advise to hold off and post your remaining questions on this thread to get the answers you need to be 100%. The whole process is very straight forward once you have done it a few times, but doing it incorrectly can cause problems.
Oh, and never, ever, ever use Rom Manager.

Odin flash a kernel. flashing a modem doesn't gain root. I'm sure that's what you meant though

i was wondering what odin rom should i flash from the bible cause idk which one to use i want gb but idk what odin to be safe with can anyone who has that gb help.. our what odin is best and safe for me
I think the KG4 leak is the one that has the gb bootloaders... BUT! to be save, look for the GB Starter Pack thread made by FBis251 (or something very close) that has worked for me to upgrade from froyo to gb and many others. Hope I helped!

All of the leaks have GB bootloaders.
If you're just planning to have a 100% stock odexed ROM, then you should go for the newest KJ1 ROM.
If you're just asking this to see which GB ROM is the best, you should shoot yourself in the foot, cause you could probably find at least 3 recent threads on that topic.
I'm looking around in the forums and you're spending very little time in searching and trying to understand.

I followed the process to ODIN KG4
then used recovery mode to flash Valhalla (Via Zip) from SD card
You have to read the GB Starter Pack and begin there in order to get the proper bootloaders for GB. Then you can simply flash Valhalla.

Getting another SGS4G for free for my second line, and what I was wondering is just where to start. I had mine since launch basically, back when all you could do is root, and there were no ROMs at the time.
So, do I have to use superoneclick or just ODIN the proper GB rom and dr. honk's kernel to get root?
No need for SuperOneClick:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223765
Just ODIN a GB ROM that has bootloaders (look in the Bible for KG4). Then I would upgrade to a newer GB ROM (I'm on KJ6) then throw drhonk's kernel on it (I'm using his KJ1).

Odin drhonks kj1 kernel to root it then you can flash the cwm kj6 Rom
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Your answer was in your post...get Dr. Honk's KJ1 kernel and flash it over with ODIN.
Also, this question seems a better fit for the Q&A forum than the dev forum.
I thought I knew about flashing and stuff till i had to flash a kernel... I don't know how! LOL I tried but ended bricking my phone.
Should I put the kernel zipped .tar file in pda or extract the zimage and put it were in odin? I have looked through forums but couldn't find a kernel flashing guide. Thanks!
And oh yes, this thread should go on Q&A. Consider yourself trolled.
Sseeaarrcchhhhhh.
Seriously. Search.
Also.. this should be in Q & A since it nothing to so with development and everything to do with failing to search and making people answer the same stupid question for the 99999 time.
Grr.

Its almost impossible to brick this phone....if u can get to recovery do a complete wipe and flash another rom ...if not use gtg unbrick in infuse super thread to go back to stock or one of the rooted Odin packages...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
only uckk4 is corrupt. that's the one that dropped today. all the other leaks are working. look for uckk3, or better yet get the phone recovered with the stock package, get cwm, (I'd use the defuse kernel oneclick heimdall, quickest way to get cwm from stock) then flash caty rom or victory rom which will be rooted.

I have a small panic attack when I think of people flashing ROMs without knowing how to restore/unbrick. Especially leaks.

Unfortunately, a newer member can look for an Odin One-Click all day and not find it because it is called Gremlin Remover. Take that into consideration when helping.
OP: Look at the guide in the second link of my signature for help. Were you already on Gingerbread before flashing the kernel?
Sorry, meant this

Thanks. Now, do you know where can i get the original kernel of the phone?
The heimdall sets the phone completely back to stock, kernel and all
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
and where can i get the unbrick files?
It does everything for you, sets ROM back to stock, sets kernel back to stock, and fixed your phone if it's bricked, just follow the instructions and you should be back to normal
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
Use hemidall it flashes everything back to stock you will also have to out the phone into download mode

i can't find the program. can you give me a link? in the post isn't present
Second link in my signature has a guide with links.
