Here's your help: Search for the millions of threads on rooting. Do you know why you want to root?

Just wondering if there was any progress being made on figuring out how to root the T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant. Anybody know if a fix is being worked on and if so what the ETA is?

it's pretty much been rooted from the beginning. google is your friend
Really? Not to sound like a hardcore n00b or nothing, but I've tried every method out there and nothing has worked. If you've got a solution id love to know where you found it.

Note that this device is blocked from accessing the recovery menu. Thoughts?

Call 611 and tell them you want it replaced. I did it and schmoozed a bit. They sent it next day air.

I also can't boot into recovery using the buttons, but I've heavily modified my phone. Please explain how you're unable to root your device.
Im new to the rooting game and was hoping someone could give me an easy way to root my galaxy s 2.2 vibrant and some good reading about the whole root experience.
A way to unroot my phone would be helpful as I have been haing some problems with my phone. I believe these to be Samsung software issues such as stuck in thee booting prosess. Im on my second phone and have had to hard reset it several times

In the forum search look fo "z4root". I used it to root my epic . It took a few uninstall-reinstall-reboot-run-repeat cycles but I am successfully rooted and didn't even need a PC
Epic is as Epic does
Thanks ill try that.

Is that even on the market anymore?
I used one click lag fix to root mine
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I tried the z4root and another one click root I found on the forums nneither of them worked. Probably because im running 2.2. I found a one click root using a computer so I think that will be my next attempt

I read of a couple ways to root this device. Is the skyrocket easy root the best way to do it?

Yes it is if your phone is on android version 2.3.5 it will not work with 2.3.6. If your on 2.3.5, and you use this method. Just download rom manager from the market and choose to install cwm recovery for the tmobile galaxy s2 with it, and you will be set
Thanks man

There are apps in the market that prevent memory use, freeze,applications, and uninstall junk apps. Always use caution when doing any of this though.

I've tried all them clean ram apps...they work until all the apps recollect themselves...
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
If you're phone is rooted, download Titanium and just freeze the apps (also take caution when do that)
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
If you want to keep the apps available for use but don't want them running unless you open them download autostarts in the market. Its 99 cents but I've been using it for months and its worth it.

Look in the reference Bible, there's guides for everything. Rooting the galaxy s 4g is super easy though, since you can use superoneclick. There's a step by step guide in the Bible along with links for all the necessary downloads.
Reference Bible is in the development section.
Oh yeah, you will need a computer.

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!

I rooted my phone with superoneclick but I cannot unlock my phone...still busybox box problem?
