Ok I followed the rooting process I managed to downgrade it too 2.2.1 and have the s-on to s-off .
I don't see superuser and is my phone unlocked to use different carrier. Also I don't have recovery install because it said failed.

More details. What did you use to get S-Off? Did you use the "Attempt Permaroot" option in Visionary?
S-Off does not equal root. S-Off means the security flag is off which allows permanent rooting to take place, as well as writing to partitions.

If it doesn't work you have to reboot and try again. It uses an exploit that doesn't work 100% of the time.

What is the most simplest way to root? Is it the unrevoked method?

Fastboot
Recovery
And cant remember the other two options off the top of my head. I dont know what to do from there

In the answer to the original question. Yes it works, but soft root only. You need v1.6.2 minimum, older dont support soft root.
Hello, I am not rooted and know nothing about clockworkmod. (I have tried rooting numerous times but no success. I'm thinking drivers) I would like to know if its possible to flash it with my epic being stock? I have searched and have turned no results about flashing it from stock. Everything refers to rooted. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

No but I am not sure if you can install it without a pc. Are you using the drivers from samsung?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yes I downloaded samsung galaxy s drivers from here when I tried to root. Never for them to work even with 2 fresh installs. Thanks for the info on the z4root, by far the easiest and fastest way I've ever rooted before. But ya I have samsung drivers.

is it the same driver you get from the samsung website? You said you got them here so I am just checking cause I am not sure. I got mine right from the samsung website.

I am afraid I won't be any help there. I haven't flashed clockwork yet because I am not sure how easy it is to remove (noob) so I am waiting until Froyo releases. Unless I can't find an easy method to install it and uninstall it.
just downloaded z4root and rom manager from market
z4root installing right now

You have to install clockwork through the one click method. Also you must install samung drivers for your computer first. Then u may choose a rom 2.1 or 2.2 and flash through clockwork.

Go read the Sticky Wiki. There is a way to do it without a pc. But since you are lazy and obviously can't really do crap. Here is the link to what you need.

visionary you mean the root.sh method correct?
Nope... I was going to use that too and it too failed, so I just temp rooted from visionary like the rh. Says but hit perm root after that instead of pushing those files thru since it didn't want to work.. so I really rooted all from visionary like I have on other devices.

I attempted it.. but I always got some error that I had never seen before when pushing the files.
So I said wtf screw this! Rebooted phone for fresh boot, (checked for s=off in bootloader, it was on) hit temproot, Hit permroot now, rebooted to bootloader saw s=off so I threw CWM recovery and flashed a rom before my bipolar phone changed its mind
