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

Mobile odin

For those who might have missed it, chainfire has released mobile ODIN, no need to use a pc to flash .tar firmware. The flash counter doesn't change and no triangle.

I ve made a review / tutorial about it and there is also a demo of it

If it actually works (unlike CWM which never works for me) it's a great idea!

The same as in Odin but the things are less likely to go wrong because you don't need USB drivers, cables nor windows computers which could freeze in the process

Backup and wipe?
Hi
Is it possible to use Odin Mobile to make a copy of your current ROM before flashing another one?
And do a flash using Odin Mobile Wipe my data, settings etc?

Good tool. I bought it.

Good tool, but unfornately it isn't possible to root a phone with Mobile odin. Is there any way to root a phone without USB cable ?

Ive used the pro version.. Flash from rooted stock 2.3.5 to 2.3.6 with root.remained and unchanged zero binary counter.. Thanks a lot!!

Thread cleaned of childish banta please respect each other and don't forget perceived text is often very different than spoken....
Not tried it yet as only used odin about 4 times since got phone to get ROOT and to deep clean.
Will have to give a shot as always handy to be able to flash odin too while mobile.

root your phone first using other method which Is using USB..after that, just use mobile Odin pro to flash ROM with root included..

Great app. I flashed WXKK5 on rooted XXKI4 without losing my root. Mobile Odin Pro V 1,25 works like a charm. "Ever root" feature is worth money spent.

links are in the 1st post here

None of the links in that post are working.
Is there a ROM I can download where EVERYTHING is working and included, such as smart stay, motion ect?
Has to be able to install with CWM.
Need it NOW please can't find any :S

You can install stock roms in their tar form using mobile odin. It's by chain fire and there's a free version on xda

Cwm

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!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

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.

Actually if you only root your phone and don't change anything(that includes not installing custom recovery) you can take the or a but if you are already rooted and on the international you can try this- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665985

I dont have a sd card O.O! I thought its not possible ??? So i downloaded freege out of curiosity now... Once i started it checked versions etc.. Now i am at the screen , Then i see 3 things named like this " CWM-6.0.4.6 / CWM-6.0.4.7 / TWRP-2.6.33 " ? I dont get anything

The phones internal storage is the ad card in other words and the Korean version actually supports external ad cards anyways those options are the different recoveries and I personally use twrp
