not when you use super one-click, you have to flash a kernel after rooting.

You can have root access and not CWM. A lot of the less-serious users do it so they can use Ti-Backup and other root-using apps

Is this phone the exact same as the Rogers SGH-I727R?

Can we follow the root/rom guides in here? the specs seem to be exactly the same
Yes exactly same phone
Thanks I rooted and installed clockwork recovery. how do I access recovery from boot up
Sent from my SGH-I727R using XDA App
Not sure this is the easiest way, but works for me:
While holding down volume up and down, push power. Keep volume buttons held until after samsung screen.
You could also use rom manager to boot to recovery.

Where are you coming from and what are you trying to get to?
With out specifics, sounds like you need to Odin or heimdall back to stock and add a new recovery
Edit: goto the q,a threads. Lots of previous threads posted that will help you

I have a stock Infuse. I was able to root the device but thats about it. I can do nothing. It has UCKH1 on it now and I was wanting to go to MIUI Rom. I ran MIUI on my Vibrant and like it very much. But until I can get the recovery on, I can not do anything.

Download the Stock + root + modded 3e package and follow they instructions. I use this every time I want to go back to stock between roms, and it roots and installs the modded recovery (cwm) for you. So easy. Idk why more people don't use this.

[Q] Need CWM for sgs4g 2.3.6 official.

Has anybody got a version of CWM that will work on the sgs4g? I accidentally flashed the galaxy s CWM from rom manager before finding this forum. Nothing has changed on the phone, except if i boot into CWM recovery i always get verification errors.
Also, are there any ROMs for the sgs4g that is running 2.3.6?
Thanks to anybody who can help.
Get rid of ROM Manager. I've read it doesn't work well on this phone. Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380331 for a 2.3.6 ROM with the latest CWM/root/voodoo lagfix.

You should try this

When it is time to choose a package pick the one that includes the beta 2d kernel from the Kj6 collection. Learning the one click method will also give you every thing you need should you make a mistake and need to recover from a soft brick

That is a link to a cwm flashable kernel.
Without cwm he will have no luck installing it.

It's Heimdall installable, too, which is how I did it. I'm trying to leverage Heimdall more these days in an attempt to learn it better.

This may just be a noob question and I hope I'm posting in the right place. I'm running 2.3.6 as well and want to flash Valhalla Final onto my device. The instructions say you must have pre-installed kernel with clockwork recovery. Do I need to use Heimdall and load a kernel with clockwork recovery or is there another way to get the CWM? I am still learning the basics of all this stuff. Forgive my ignorance.

Since you're already on GB (2.3.6) you can do this, if you're not rooted follow:

Save the wiki to your bookmarks. We're updating it constantly so you'll always get the most up to date info from there. Also spread the word when other users need help, point them to the proper section in the wiki .
Thanks to everyone for their insight. My sgs4g is no more now. Luckily, I learned a lot about flashing with it before it died. Including unbricking. Still haven't gotten heimdall to work. But I think I have been trying to run the regular exe instead of the front end. We'll see. Hopefully I get paid this week to cut on the internet again. Killing me here.

Hi Joseph. In my opinion, the easiest way is to flash bhndven's Subtly Modified Stock with CWM5 + Voodoo Lagfix. That way you have a KJ6-based kernel, the latest CWM, root, & voodoo lagfix.
Good luck!
i can`t understand this
what this is ?
i am new for this plz simplest this for me

Read every stickied thread in this and the development forum, it will explain the process to you in the most detail possible. If reading these is too much, then you'll be better off with an iPhone.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Reading is defniitely key. If the subtly modified kernel is too difficult, though, maybe you should try a ROM from the The KJ6 Heimdall One-Click Collection. The last one in the list, SMS KJ6 (beta2d) Kernel Stock Rom with Bootloaders, will give you cwm, root, and voodoo lagfix.
It is simple to install & only requires Java. Just follow the instructions on the post.

see the list of supported devices.
its only for rooting and it doesnt help you with installing recovery.
Is there a way you recommend installing a recovery?I've looked on cyanogen mod but I don't think they support my device. Any ideas?

what phone?
I've never had an issue rooting... its gotten pretty safe, as long as you follow the steps closely you shouldn't have any issues or worries about bricking anything.
There are backup options of your rom after you root it. Clockworkmod Rom Manager makes backups and installing new rooms as easy as 3 buttons.
Since the galaxy player 5 us version is older device is there a clockwork mod recovery for it?
