Heya, guys.
I'm Angelo. Nice to meet you all.
First of all, I want to say Congratulations to all the people who built this website up.
THere's my issue now:
I got a Samsung Galaxy S on the 22nd of December, so it's kinda new, already updated to Froyo 2.2 firmware version (factory) I9000XXJPP build RSJP5
Rooted with Z4Root and Lagfixed with Ryanza's OneClickLagFix v2.2, I also modified the schedule (I've set deadline with tweaks instead of the default cpq).
I'm not good at all with all those roms and kernels stuff, Odin... Doesn't sound "safe" for me, don't want to toss it after three weeks.
I tried to speed up my phone, it went from 952 to 1857, but I don't see any changes, only at the start when I boot the phone, it loads faster.
Could you guys help me with this stuff out? I'd like to avoid to flash my phone, just to point this out.
Thanks in advance, Angelo.

If you are rooted then you might as well download a ROM that can be flashed using Recovery Mode.

Make sure your download mode is working... ( search for 3 button fix )
Install CWM (search for this)
Flash ROM by copying the ROM to you internal sd and reboot to recovery...
Done
Oh thanks! And how does this work? What does this introduce on my phone?
Do I have to remove my lagfix? Explain please >_>

I recommend flashing any custom JPY rom, 2.2.1 is night and day compared to 2.2, very fast, also recommend using Hardcores Speedmod kernel as well, make sure to disable your lagfix,(oclf does not work in hardcores) and use the ext4 lagfix from Hardcores kernel...
All you really have to do is flash your rom of choice in recovery, then flash your kernel, in recovery as well, and then apply your lagfix.. check your rom of choices thread, most come with instructions on installing

If you check the threads for the ROMs you'll see very detailed install guides that the chefs have put together. You will probably need to use Odin for some steps so get the right drivers and read up on that (it's all here in the stickies or in General).
That's why it's always good to do lots of reading before posting
The best ROM available at the moment IMO, in terms of speed, customizability, and the best support community, it's Doc's Kichen.
Put together your ROM at www.romkitchen.org.
Check his thread for the instructions and if you need help. You won't be disappointed

Since you are running Froyo currently, you must first copy your desired ROM to your SD card, and then flash a kernel that has ClockWork build in (such as Voodoo or Hardcore). Then you can simply reboot into recovery (volume up + home + power) and install the ROM from the SD card. That's about all there is to it If you have problems you can use the "clean install method" of flashing back to Eclair with pit but this is rarely necessary.
Using Doc's ROM is really the way to go, you get great choices of launchers, kernels, themes, modems, so you can make it just how you want it without having to waste time changing/installing things afterwards.

Either way, the procedure is basically the same. We could go back and forth all day
With Doc's online kitchen you can have Voodoo 5.1 with his awesome sound work ready to go right out of the box (hmm that idiom doesn't really work with ROMs does it )

Sorry bud, but there is no way to flash a kernel without Odin unless you have clockwork already. Which you don't if you're on an official Froyo release that has 3e recovery (clockwork can't be used unless you change kernels with Odin).
Flashing with Odin is easy, go into download (volume down + home + power), plug into PC, open up Odin, press PDA, and browse to the .tar of your kernel (such as Voodoo or Hardcore) that you downloaded. Press start and watch the magic happen. This is covered in great detail in many threads, plz look around
Darky v8.0
Go to the market download rom manager app 4 free , open it, then chose for instal cwm
There u go much easier.

ROM Manager is not recommended for most SGS ROMs. In addition, it is likely to cause problems with Froyo ROMs with 3e recovery that don't like unsigned zips.

Jaden, Odin back to stock (look in the Noob guide by S14274N) it has everything you need, Once you are in stock , then root the phone (use superoneclick, it is easy), then download Rom manager, then you will go back into download hit update packages and it will be rooted, From there you can flash any rom you want. Your phone is ok, you need just to go into Download and Odin back to stock first.
You probably can just restart your phone, don't think any changes were even made...long press the power button until it restarts.
Hahaha no offense and not trying to troll but guys please ODIN before any flash of rom, kernel, mod,theme, anything. That way you dont flip out when **** goes wrong. I did,so do many other flashers, and so should you pr anybody else. Also, do a backup with recovery before flashing....

Yeah its not really necessary, I think the last time I used ODIN was before flashing the Nero beta. It will keep things fresh and mostly issue free, but if you know what you're doing you really shouldn't have to do it for every flash.
I upgraded my vibrant to the lastest official rom, froyo UVKB5 , juse for those who still looking for the way to root it, I used the Super one click version 1.91 , and it works, remember ,only the version 1.91 will work, all other earlier version will not help you.
Certainly you will have to install the usb driver for Vibrant,
then download the SUPER ONE CLICK software ,
and select "USB DEBBUGING " on your phone,
then open the SUPER ONE CLICK programe,
connect your phone via usb,and click 'Root" ,
when it says done, reboot your phone, there you should get it rooted.

Lol no that is not how you do it! You have to have a modified 3e recovery first then you can start flashing things its not as easy as that. Since the 3e recovery checks update.zip you cannot flash clockworkmod that easily you can do it on jfd that easy but not an update which has a 3e recovery!

well how do you flash CMD on 2.2.1 then?
Just wanted to give a quick thank you as this worked perfectly for me! The 2.2 version of super-one-click constantly had me hanging but I'm glad to have found this older version and it worked like a charm
Nope did not work: UVKB5: V1.9.1 "Failed" - V2.2 - Hangs.
wHERE are they right instructions step by step? dont want to make mistake

Thank you for this info.
I just spent a day trying to root my Galaxy S Vibrant using SuperOneClickv2.3.3 (after having it updated to Froyo 2.2). It did not work, no matter what I tried.
Finally, I came accross your post, googled for SuperOneClickv1.9.1, dowloaded and followed your instructions. It worked like a charm.
Once again, THANK YOU!
I know this isn't a question that fully pertains to the epic but I'd like to know is the odin tool a standard across all newer samsung phones? I had a hero before this phone and I remember I was always worried about bricking it. Maybe it was a lack of experience with rooting and flashing but I am much more comfortable modding this phone. I guess it would be a huge selling point for the within for me if I knew it would be as easy as this phone to mod. Thanks in advance.
I'm about to start modding my friend's Fascinate and they use Odin, as well. I'm pretty sure it's standard. Best way to check is to see the how to root threads for all the new Samsungs. Sadly, our one-click looks more efficient than others. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to save her data before flahing a ROM. They don't seem to get that one reboot before having to flash and wipe all data. Maybe a nandroid before will be the answer. I'll find out soon enough.

Should Work on any rooted android phone. Odin is samsung leaked software. Before rooting or flashing any thing I do recommend reading up in the threads to be sure of the process first.

I know with the old Samsung Moment we used a piece of software from Samsung called SWUpdate. To be honest it is a LOT easier to use and far more idiot proof than Odin. I know there is also a version released for the Epic (I used it to update to official Froyo) and I am not sure why devs have not used that instead. It literally walks you through step by step with words and pictures (Remove the battery by taking off the back cover, reinsert battery, boot into download mode by pressing x,y, and z, etc.) Each step on a separate screen with photos and big "Next" button you had to hit after doing the instructions. The only "hard" part was finding the sub-sub-sub directory the stock .tar was in and replacing it with what you wanted to flash. Still, not very complicated and I never had a single problem getting the phone to flash to stock.
Unlock Root Tools is a android root tool. Supports the Android 2.1,2.2 and 2.3Easy way to get root access Permissions！
the software can be found at : LINKS REMOVED
Try at your own risk but It worked like a charm for my SGS2,
How to Root Your SGS2:
To Root your phone you will have to download Unlock Roottool from the unlockroot.com. and install
1) Your device must be in USB Debugging mode.
2) If you have not installed Android SDK Driver , install it after installing the tool : Start Menu -> Programs -> Unlock root -> Install Driver
3) Connect your device to your PC, Run UnlockRoot.exe
4) Click “Unlock Root”, Enjoy
I did not test the "unroot" option of this tool yet.
Thanks
So rather than use CFRoot which takes all of two minutes, I run an exe in debug mode from a source that I have absolutely no idea about the credentials of ?
No thanks.
Not the simplest method is it at all .

OK then I will remove the words "easiest and symplest"
No doubt CF-Root is the best and simplest for those who already started using the Odin.
CF Root method :
1) Get into Download mode
2) Open ODIN, select the file
3) Connect phone and select start
4) Done in under 30 secs
Much easier than this "unlockroot" method...
This may not be the easiest way to get root for us.
But for somebody who doesn't know what odin is, Windows user who doesn't even know there is a download and recovery mode on their phones.
Or for someone who doesn't want to mess up with jigs and flash counters.
For them, this could be the easiest way to root and unroot their phones.
That people will find this usefull, others should shut up.
