[Q] Help!

I just rooted my friends Fascinate using SuperOneClick and then I installed Rom Manager and flashed clockwork mod but when i go into recovery it says it installation of update.zip failed. Where can I get the update.zip for it. I am trying to flash the dl-30 leaked rom thats out I have it. just cant get the update.zip so he can properly use clockwork mod.

You need to first flash CWM via Odin, before you can use the update.zip. Also, DL30 is an OLD and buggy froyo leak, EB01 is the most recent one, and the ones most of the new roms are being based on.

Thanks I did that. Note when I go into clockwork and try to use nandroid to make a back up I get an error that says its un able to mount his sd

You might be using an old Clockworkmod. Use this one here.
Edit: I updated the link with the one I use.

CWM trouble

I got my Vega today and have been fiddling with it all evening. I'm bow at a stage where I want to try a custom rom.
All the roms require cwm to be installed or the rom installed via a PC.
How are most people getting cwm onto their device? I'm running s modded galaxy s so roms and cwm don't scare me
Many thanks in advance.

Rooting apk for galaxy 2.3.4

Looking for an apk that will do this for me as z4root and gingerbreak won't work.

If you want root, why don't you flash a custom kernel, then boot into recovery and you will find an option for root built in, most will even install superuser for you too, with one click.

Tried using rom manager, 1 click speedmod but cant unless the phone is rooted
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

You need to look at the threads in Dev section for the likes of speedmod or Galaxian Kernels, you download the kernal and Odin, connect the phone in download mode and then flash the kernal as PDA (i think), then reboot your phone, reboot again into recovery and you will have CWM built in with root options, no need for rom manager...
Just make sure you pick the right Kernel for your current rom!!!

Yes but the point is i want to know if its possible via an apk . I know how to flash

Since 2.2.1 it's been impossible to root the SGS without outside tools.
What are you hoping to accomplish?

I dont know maybe a portable root unroot apk for gingerbread, I can do it by pc but it would be good to do it via apk
Sent from my E15i using XDA App

seriously man. you are dumb. ukdtweak already give the clear answer for you.

Download this pacakage http://www.4shared.com/folder/sMLqbTXo/_online.html and istall via Odin.
Best

I think he know to root via install custom kernel, but he want to find another root menthod using app on the phone, doesn't need PC to flash custom kernel

this is the apk:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765

so it DOES exist. seems some i9000 users were able to make use of the apk successfully, while most were not. and this is with 2.3.3. i suppose the chances of it working on 2.3.4 are even more unlikely.

Thank,you very much guys i would thanks you all but cant from the xda app

think best will be root with odin...

Does SuperOneClick work with 2.3.4?...
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App

Gingerbread
I know of no apk.
Unfortunately the first root has to be done via Odin. All other rooted roms can be done via clockwork mod. Rom manager screws up when using it from desktop. 2 roms come into my thoughts: Cognition and Insanity. I downloaded a 3.3.4 rom, in the past and flashed via Odin and totally bricked my other phone. You can use Samfirmware.com for the latest secure rom and then find a rooted rom , of the same number and flash via Odiin.

Super 1 click must have a kernel which is unlocked to root the rom.

Need help on installing cm9

Hi i'm new to xda. Sorry if this posted at the wrong section. If so, can anyone tell how to move it to the correct section
Anyways back on topic. BTW my phone is the gt-p1000n(latin version), android 2.3.3 stock. I tried installing CM9 by following a guide from cyanogenmod's guide to flashing cm9 for the galaxy tab (sorry unable to post link) . Everything went smoothly until it rebooted after flashing the kernel with cwm, it got stuck at the boot screen. I decided to hold the power button until it turned off. So i tried going to CWM and it worked but i seem to be unable to install the CM9 zip. It said something about status 7 error when installing it .
Can anyone be willing to tell me what i did wrong with the procedures. Thanks for your help btw. And sorry for my bad English, it isn't my native language.

Tried it but it didn't work . Still got the error status 7

You need to install overcome rom as well.
I know it is incompatible because the touch screen driver is different,
But only need that so that cm9 installer thinks you are P1000.
So flash
- overcome kernel
- overcome rom
- cm9 for p1n
- gapps
You can skip installing overcome rom by editing the updater script too and remove the assert line at the top and zip it back.
Only if you know what you are doing.

Maybe you must update the ClockWorkMod Recovery to 5.5.x.x version.
To Anyone if you can't find the Overcome kernel.
I've uploaded the Overcome kernel for you
Good luck from Thailand

Removed the lines and now i'm getting status 6 error

What error is status 6 exactly
Seeing so many problems, I think you should restock.
Do you have stock rom?
If not, I still believe you can use overcome method.
Don't worry about the touch driver not compatible. You will be mostly on Odin and on recovery.
You just want to use the gb stock safe to restock with pit selected and repartition.
Then quickly flash overcome kernel and then boot to recovery and flash cm9.

Just to be sure, the cm9 download link for the gt-p1000n is at 'get.cm/?device=p1n' right?

yes that is for P1000N

Not sure why, but for some odd reason Odin can't detect my tab when it's on download mode

No device added in the message box or no model number. If no model number it is normal.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app

Odin didn't want to recognize mine either, but if you plug the tab, and close and open Odin, it should detect the com port.

I had a similar problem in the end i installed a rom i downloaded from Humberos's website, jus google Humberos and its the first link, there are the download links at like his 4th post. Good luck

Its because of what you did to the USB driver to use Heimdall, read the readme on Heimdall Folder, there is the way to revert the change...
