Okay, I have had success in the past rooting the original mytouch. I now have a Samsung Galaxy S 4g through T-mobile. What files do I need? Thank you in advanced.

You could at least have a look around the forums before starting a new thread...
Ok first
There is SEARCH field on right upper corner for newbie it should be your BFF for begining... Secondly there is SuperOneClickRoot software which will do it for you
I have done it and it works
I guess I am bit confused. Which rom's are best for this phone?
I am using stock with removed BloatWare
But heard Deoxed is fairly good

9/10 Roms that are available for just about every phone use CWM as a recovery and install method.
CWM Is not quite yet available... read/search forums.

this root method worked like a charm on my atrix 2 running 2.3.6ota! of coarse all credit goes to shortfuse for making this super easy one click program!

Thanks, but we've had a one click root exploit for 2.3.6 for at least a month now.

Haha, wow. Here's some good reading for you then

The previously mentioned one click root method, which works ridiculously fast I might add, is detailed about halfway down the page under "How to Root". There's lots of good info in there, check it out.

I clicked on your link and at first I felt insulted because the first word on the page i seen was noob. Just jokin, I read through that when i first got my a2. I just didn't realize they had found an exploit for 2.3.6., Its good to know.

Haha, def didn't intend anything offensive. Hell, I used that thread to walk me through rooting, flashing fxz, etc., when I finally grew the cahones to do it....and I was pretty experienced from my year of flashing/modding my X10.

I know that there is a one click in the noob thread but I tried it about six times on my new a2 and it didn't work...don't know why. I have been rooting/flashing for a while now on several different phones. I picked this up on the infuse 4g forum and thought I would post it for people who had trouble with the other one click method.

You should check the Atrix 4G forums, this is the Atrix 2 forum.
Having said that, you may need to install device-specific software from Motorola.
Can't Find the download links for the superoneclick 2.3.3 ,,,, any help would be appreciated.....

Are you trying to use odin or have you flashed a custom recovery, cm or twrp?

I'm guessing you didn't use the right recovery to flash a kernel. What recovery did you use.

This really should be in the general discussions not in development. At the leased it should be in a post in the development for the ROM you were trying.
Probably just didn't use Kexec
You didn't read the OP of whatever it was you were doing.

Way too many d-bags on XDA. Yes, he posted in the wrong forum, now he knows and I'm sure a mod will move it. Saying it over and over again and being a d-bag while doing it, doesn't help anyone.
OP, as others have stated, you are probably best off going back to a stock rom from Odin and ensuring you have a proper recovery flashed. Then start over with whatever it was you were trying to do.

really, what a DB (probably doesn't know the answer anyway).
I hate it when posters can't just help someone out.
wow!!!
lol wow guys, i didnt check this for a few days and honestly i will probably never post here again. i downloaded ez-recovery as i was told to do in many posts. i installed a kexec recovery...cwm 6.0.1.0. i followed the instructions in the synergy rom page and installed it through cwm. i then downloaded the Imoseyons Lean Kernel and installed it in cwm, rebooted and received the error message.
i have flashed several roms and recoveries over the years with the droid inc, droid inc2. and now the samsung. sorry to start a flame war. i will not post here again. i was simply trying to help report issues to developers.
good day.

hi there im new to this root thing i found a online company called androidroot.org they charge 29.99 to root phones is this a ripoff a joke or a good deal thank you all in advance and this site looks super great thank you all
First of all, which device do you have? Also, rooting is not very difficult if you read the specific guide for your device. I wouldn't recommend shelling out 30 bucks for that

Maybe you should try reading the guide for your phone, if you think rooting is beyond you, then consider paying for it. But I highly recommend at least try yourself, but beware, don't do anything wrong, rooting has potential to brick your device meaning you won't be able to use it if it gets hard bricked. This forum will soon be deleted as this is the wrong device you posted in. All the best

You should ask in the GS3 forum, not the HTC One section.
I would suggest you begin by looking at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2079399
More specifically, this thread has instructions for root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709
It appears to be a simple process, only 12 steps.
Remember to do alot of reading before attempting anything.

I see that there are plenty of ROMs available for the P51xx's, and since the P51xx's and the 497's are both Galaxy Tab 2's, would it be possible, just to use the build.prop of the P51xx's on a 497's rom?

The Canadian SGH-i497 (ROM appears on sammobile but I cannot find reference to a Canadian Tab2) may support phone calls and sms messaging. I downloaded the Odin ROM from here:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=20711
And checked inside and it seems to have the proper files. Since the i497 has practically no support on XDA I have been reluctant to install it. But recently another member posted the ATT 4.1.2 so I was thinking of giving it a try in the near future.
Canadian version is listed on Samsung of Canada but that is about it. No info is given. Why would they release a ROM for a tablet that just doesn't seem to exist?

I too have one of these things...Really want to Root it and install other ROM's....Found Cyanogenmod for p5100 but also reluctant to try it as it is not the SGH-I497...but it's so slow and laggy, I just am dying to at least give it a try, as long as I can back up current firmware....just need to research on how to do just that first...
I have a I497 as well but it is for Digicel Jamaica, anyone knows if the AT&T or Canadian 4.1.2 Rom would work on it? I'm thinking they should all be compatible since they are all sgh-I497.

AT&T gave us one for signing up for their cable service. sad to know that no custom roms available.
was able to get it rooted. was going to be a fancy toy anyways. amazing how under-powered this thing is.
I just wound up selling mine, wasn't worth it. If I remember right there was a Rom, but it was only a stock one that had the AT&T junk removed.
