Just out of curiosity, is it possible to root without cmw and without a computer?

No, you need a cistom recovery installed on phone to flash the su file
You can try twrp recovery that uses goo manager to install its twrp but I think(99.999% sure) u have to be rooted first
You can read my link in my sig about rooting

Need root to have the recovery script.... You could go buy an original gangster Android 1.x phone and use androot or z4root and ginger break
All of which don't work on the sky rocket
Download goo manager and go to a friends house goo has All the files needed like super user and odin

Just did super one click root and wondering if I can install roms from rom manager now. Inspire root was so much more crazier.

Of course everyone is going to have a difference of personal opinion, but if you're looking for a solid ROM try Infused 2.2.3

I suggest that you go to the dev section. There was only a couple of roms that were downloadable using rom manager. But now that he's moved to a new phone, he may have removed it.
Cranky...
My main question is am I able to do custom roms now just by doing super one click. On the inspire I had to create a gold card and took 20 mins to root. This took 5 mins or less lol

Not quite, you also need to install mod 3e recovery, and clockwork mod.
Easiest way (for me) is to odin uckd5 stock + root + 3e recovery (just follow link below), then download rom manager or whatever any other way you want to install custom rom.

1. Root - Best to use Super One Click (Find in Dev section)
2. Replacing Recovery file with Root Explorer app. (Free @ 4shared.com)
3. Download Rom Manager in the Market. (Free). In the app, Click flash ClockWorkMod Recovery and select Galaxy S i9000.
4. Shop for Roms in the Dev section and follow steps.
If you do your research in the dev section, you will be fine but you must follow step by step!

For future reference Adam outler packaged the defuse (froyo) kernel into a one click heimdall package, you can find it in the same thread as the one click uckj4 GB ROM heimdall.
The defuse one is for froyo and will root you and has cwm baked in. all you need is Java (any operating system) the heimdall backend (link in the Java app to install it) and on windows you need drivers (you already have them)
You may need to open the jar file from command line depending on the OS but its pretty easy.

Download busybox installer by jrummy16 from google play.when u open it and it says not rooted.your not rooted.if it stays open,you are rooted ao far. Then look at the info on screen itll say weather busybox is installed or not.if its not,install it and reboot.then you can download the "ATRIX 2 bootstrapper" from the stickies thread in on "rooting" (i believe its here). Install that apk and youll be ready to install roms through cwm recovery.if its not rooted,you can check the "root" thread and download the "one-click exploit" to root your phone.

Find out CF root for your phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331253 and root it per instructions on same thread.
Then go ahead and decide on what next ROM you want to install. GO to dev thread for that particular ROM and install by following ALL instructions on that thread. Search Q&A thread in general section for that particular ROM for any questions that you might have. Post question in that thread if you cannot find answers to your questions.

Unable to Root after upgrade to I9003JPKPM
Kies updated my firmware recently to I9003JPKPM and I lost my root access. Previously I was using amit bagaria's universal cf-root.
After the firmware was installed, i again tried to root the universal cf-root. Root was working. But I lost WIFI access. Wifi does not start anymore.
To fix this, I tried unrooting the phone from the menu after pressing Vol Up + Home + Power. It told phone was unrooted. But wifi was not working. I again went back to CWM menu to Root it back.
No matter what I do, now I am unable to get Root back. The menu shows I'm rooted.
But when I go and start a priviledged application, I get an error:
Sample error
Code:
CWM Manager needs SuperUser access to function! If you have SU installed, make sure CWM Manager is not blocked, then reboot and try again.
I tried flashing universal cf-root again but unable to get root access!

Now my phone is messed up by various trials of installing universal cf-root by amit. To return back to a stock kernel, is repartitioning required?
A noob question. Is repartitioning done using a latona pit file? I remember using one when I had switched from froyo to GB.

OK. I did a repartition using latona.pit file, then installed XXKPE, then installed XXLE4 on top of it. I used it for a day and also installed many apps. Now is it OK if i flash bam kernel on top of it? I had read somewhere that bam kernel should only be installed on a fresh stock ROM on its first reboot after flashing. Is it true? or do I have to repeat all the steps XXKPE -> XXLE4 -> bam kernel

You can flash bam's kernel directly.
Edit: it usually is okay, and your data shouldn't be wiped either.

Cwm from rom manager forced recovery loop
im using a sprint note 3 (sm-n900p) and i downloaded Rom Manager to get cwm and it said that it downloaded and installed just fine. i booted into recovery and it just loops over and over. If i remove battery and turn on normally, it'll continue to loop the same. the only solution to fix the loop i had was to take out the battery and boot into download mode, then i pressed down to cancel and it loads up normal. but for now, rom manager has messed up my recovery. (im not an expert on this, but im not a beginner either) just thought id give you guys a heads up
