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

why did u update via kies then? why not root then install custom 2.2.1?
any ways you will need to use odin to downgrade to 2.1 or something so that u get recover 2e. search forums on how to.
New sgs owner m8 nd it was on 2.1 and like an idiot i jumped into upgrading before reading up first (probs not the only one to do it) ive searched and searched nd couldnt make sense of it all and i genuinely need help

Is your 3 button combo working? Turn off the phone...
Press Home, Power, and VOL+ for Recovery mode.
Press Home, Power, and VOL- for Download mode.
Can you get into either of these?
Thanks for the response buddy no its not working it stopped wen i did the 2.2.1 update
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Is your phone ok and lag free?
Why do you need recovery console?
I downgraded to 2e recovery, but the smoothness of the 2.2.1 was lost..

Help installed clockworkorange on galaxy s 2.2 tried to do a rom backup and i just get the android system recovery screen and yes im a newb managed to root it all worked fine before doing any changes better do a backup and hmmm well at the moment i am in panic mode PLEASE HELP
Please could someone confirm this but I think you have apply update.zip in recovery. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries but should work.

Yes that's right. It takes at least 2-3 times. Or u can just flash a kernel or cf root that has 2e recovery

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
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
think best will be root with odin...
Does SuperOneClick work with 2.3.4?...

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.

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.

Link works for me, but you need root for SGS kernel flasher, so it won't work.
