with super on click it gets stuck
I installed corn kernel 7.0A. It's similar to stock kernel but has voodoo sound, ext4, and rooting capabilities. All accessible from the recovery reboot menu. Very easy.
The kernel is flashed with odin.

really dnt think there is a super one click for captivates running 2.3.5... yet.
SuperOneClickv2.3.1-ShortFuse does work for kk4, i can personally testify. it takes quite a long while to complete though, some number of minutes. i usually take a break at that point and go read some random article or something like that to pass time, but when i check back on it later its done and i have su fully working.

running 2.3.3 Gingerbread and im trying to root with superclick but i cant dosent let me stays on waiting for device can anyone help
I have a similar problem; but it freezes on step 6 instead
You can get root by simple flashing Dr honk's kg4 kernel via Odin.
Hope this helps!

go to the development section and read up happy flashing.
Random question, why do you have 2.3.3, Kf1 and 2 were the most unstable roms ever built for the gs4g. You need to use kh2. Kh2 is 2.3.4.

I was rooted....then I did the LG update and flashed Stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread. I wanna go back to Weapon, but RomManager is not opening. Did the update unroot my phone??

LG and almost every other phone manufacturer or service provide don't send out rooted updates. So yes, your phone is no longer rooted.

Ok, thanks. I know what I'll be doing when I get home from work later.

Superoneclick doesn't work on Gingerbread, I believe. Try flashing a custom recovery from NVFlash.

Is it possible for LG to know if the phone was rooted?

I've been doing a little bit of reading, and I keep seeing that the G2x Gingerbread 2.3.3 can't be rooted yet? Is this true?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
No that's false. Nvflash clockwork and flash the root zip. It will root gingerbread

Use NVflash to flash cwm then install weapon. ROM Manager is useless on the g2x

Thx but are there any bricking risks in there cauz last time my phone died so i had to replace it and i dont think i can replace again

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.

So I've been trying to find why ROM manager should not be used with this device and I just see that I shouldn't. I came from a MyTouch 4G where that or 4EXT were standard.
What symptoms does ROM manager cause?
I've noticed that any ROM I try to flash that doesn't use aroma installer fails at checking the update package. Is this one and how do I avoid it?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium HD app
Rom manager does not support our device so any recovery you flash is going to result in a bricked phone. It's just that simple. Even after installing the correct custom recovery, stay away from it because you won't find any compatible roms either. Not to mention that in order to flash a rom with rom mangler you first have to flash a recovery so it knows which roms to look for.

I have ROM manager on my phone already. Hasn't seemed to brick it yet. I just can't flash ROMs through it unless they are packaged with aroma. But wiping works fine.

How are you using it at all? Doesn't it prompt you to install a recovery?

He will learn.....soon to be a statistic,wanting to know how to unbrick his phone.
I'm more than prepared to fix a brick.
It flashes through the market app fine using the i9000(?) option. I can then reboot into recovery fine and flash/wipe/mount just fine. Though the model mismatch might also be causing the issue where I can't flash anything not packaged with aroma.

Your lucky flashing that recovery should have soft bricked your phone. This is not the i9000. That's the galaxy s international version of the phone. Then there's the t959 vibrant. And the t959w for wind Mobile. Which are all slightly different. Like i said really lucky. Sooner or later it's likely to burn you.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I know this isn't the I9000. Perhaps I should consider dusting off my coding knowledge and make a compatible recovery.
This phone is so much different than my old HTC glacier... -_-

We have cwm recoveries for the phone they just don't flash thru Rom Manager.

Given that CyanogenMod is dumping ROM Manager, it seems like energy could be better put elsewhere.

i have had my phone for a couple months and have been trying to root it i look on youtube for guides but this phone seems to be the odd ball.... its running on 2.3.4 and i have tried (superoneclick) and (unlockroot) and none seem to work.

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)

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
