I'm pretty sure you cannot root without using a PC. Flashing ROM's is easy but you need to root first obviously..

I stand corrected, z4root is available on the Market and will automatically root and install busybox. XDA link is here:

ClockworkMod ROM Manager is also available on the Market and you will be able to flash CWM Recovery from the app itself. After that you are set to go with flashing custom ROMs.
Seems it wont work due to having 2.2.1 firmware and something about the recovery not being 2e

The drivers are installed on computer . You dont need to flash to stock .

Yeah, just download it... It's less than 30MB. Make your instal path as short as possible. Try adb devices to test if you have it set up right and it sees your phone.
Hey fellas I'm new to the android world. Q? I just rooted my phone with the z4root, so how can I install custom roms with out flashing my phone?
Sent from my SPH-M920 using XDA App
You can't.
Simply put, you can't. That is the only way to install a different rom is to flash it to your phone.

Hi guys,
I'm on samsung stock rom cuz im on holiday. I didn't flash any cf-root kernel. Is there anyway to flash root via stock recovery? After I have root could I flash cwm than?
Remember: I'm on my phone. I haven't got any pc with me!

No
Use this and flash a rooted kernel.

I tryed to this link but it seems that is not working...Is my internet issue ?
Link works for me, but you need root for SGS kernel flasher, so it won't work.

Try z4root app it works fine any it is the easy way :thumbup:
Sent from my LG-GT540 using xda premium
z4root is easy and no danger for newbie
then for testing root, install superuser and try it to authorize access to root.
THANKS
IMO best option is flash 2.1 with fastboot then flash cwm and soft with root
