[Q] Odin Bootloader Anyone???

I have been looking everywhere for a bootloader to flash to my SGS 4g via Odin, can anyone help me?
P.S. would a SGS Vibrant bootloader work on it because I have found one of those?
Thank you for your time,
Chad

i don't know much about bootloaders but WHATEVER YOU DO DO NOT FLASH THAT VIBRANT BOOTLOADER, IT WILL BRICK!

Could I root with superoneclick? If so which exploit?

Don't think that Superoneclick will root gingerbread. Dr honks modified gb kernels will auto root and give you cwm.

Anyone know if this is a reliable source for my answer?

Not sure but again you can Odin Dr honks modified kernel to get root and cwm. They are in the dev section.

Nowadays I tend to only check here twice a day. Busy busy days now. =/.
But Chad, to answer your question, if you're gonna root, you might as well try out some of the custom gingerbread roms we have on this forum. There are Audiophile, valhalla and ICBINB. There are differences to all of them so make sure you read up on which you might wanna flash.
Superoneclick can't root our phones on Gingerbread, so you'll need to flash a custom GB kernel as Exodian recommended.
If you want you can follow my GB starter pack guide from step 7 on so you can prepare your phone for having ext4 and a gingerbread rom of your choice without issues.

A question about flashing my phone.

No you don't have to root if you want stock gingerbread. Use Kies mini. We don't have ICS yet. To flash Valhalla you will need to root and a custom kernel. Look at the guide in the first link of my signature.

So, flashing to gingerbread is less risky than rooting and flashing to Valhalla... Can you give me the link for the guide to upgrade to gb?

Then you are out of luck. Most of the files were hosted on megaupload affiliate's and when it went down so did the files.
Make sure your contacts are backed-up on your sdcard/google and upgrade to gingerbread you will be happier.

Why are you keeping yourself stuck on Froyo? You prefer being 3 years behind?
Use the link provided by eollie, its the best out their.
My advice, go to gingerbread as it has better drivers, kernel, signal, and a much bigger application /market support. use the link provided above, Don't forget to Thank eollie

It's pretty simple http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887
Also if your phone is running D80010o firmware, flash back to stock D80010d firmware before rooting. Otherwise you might have issues when flashing certain roms.

It keeps taking me to the first page on how to root it when I click that link. If I just want to root it and keep stock rom do I need to flash it back?
