Nope but I will try in this weekend. I found how to restore phone when you brick it (if something happen) :), and it's not so hard. That's why I will use different method to root it. I just wonder if one of brick is avilable or more. I only know how to unbrick by this method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qB4RNoXTd8 . Its very simple just install software downoladed from http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9001.htm our software is in the middle I9001XXKF8 ##. Odin as well recognize my phone.

Nice one RiverSource! Let's hope this is the start of more to come (ie. easier root, custom roms..).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RiverSource:
Hello,

ok, next step for rooting the SGS Plus: The FMROOT (hehe). FMROOT is the original untouched Samsung Kernel with a modified init.rc. The init.rc calls a script which places the su binary and the Superuser.apk into the /system partition.

As always: You are responsible for your Phone! If someone bricks his device using this guide, I am not responsible for that! Bad Luck, I have warned you! Its a dangerous job! You really shouldn't do it.

Howto:

Download the appropriate file for your firmware.

Extract it

There should be 2 Files: AriesVE.ops and FMROOT_?????.smd

Use Odin Multi Downloader

Put "AriesVE.ops" in OPS

Put "FMROOT_?????.smd" in PDA

Flash. Wait 5 Seconds. Phone reboots. Phone is rooted. Normally without loosing data or settings.

Please ask here, if your Firmware is not available. It should be possible to create an appropriate FMROOT Kernel.

Credits:

astuermer for pointing me to the correct su and Superuser binaries.

Chainfire here from XDA Developers. My script is based on the CF-Root

Paul from Madaco. I had a closer look into his "superboot".

Lots and Lots of Custom ROM Developers for i9000 and i9100. I have learned a lot about Android Images on Samsung phones from them.

For the developers: the FMBOOT Script called by init.rc:

mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /system
rm /system/xbin/su
rm /system/bin/su
mkdir /system/xbin
cat /fmboot/su > /system/xbin/su
chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
cat /fmboot/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk
mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /system

And the calling code inside the init.rc:

start fmboot

class_start default

## Daemon processes to be run by init.
##
service fmboot /system/bin/sh /fmboot/fmboot.sh
user root
group root
oneshot

If someone is interested, I can post a howto on modifying boot.imgs for SGS Plus. Don't hesitate to ask. ;) BTW, i have also coded a script which is capable of generating SMD archives with any content (not based on a previous SMD archive). I can also post it, if someone is interested.

I think, I will optimize the script in the future. Checking if the phone is already rooted and skip the thing for example. Or adding busybox. Are there any additional ideas?

<1> reset pda..

upgrade + root on dutch vodafone gt-i9001

took around 3mins to flash, everything seems to work (also tested GPS)

i see a few people saying they got stuck on 7/15, keep in mind the system img is the largest file in there so it can take quite a bit longer then the others, also depends on the speed of the usb port (1.1 vs 2.0 etc.)

For TAR Files (e.g. from FUS Check Downloader) activate the "One Package" option in Odin. Add the OPS File (in the OPS Field) and the TAR File (in the "One Package" Field), press Start.

SuperOneklick, Z4, Gingerbreak and so on are not working. I tried them all (and not only me). As I said: This is a very common way rooting Samsung Phones. More or less every custom Root Kernel for i9000 or i9100 works in a similar way, especially the CF Root Kernels from Chainfire.

BTW: Someone here who has compiled a CWM from source? I'm thinking about a CWM for the i9001.

Alternative root method for Galaxy Plus

Hey guys,

Here's what I did to get my Galaxy Plus rooted.

I didn't like the "GT-I9001_PRT_I9001XXKG3_I9001XXKG3_I9001PRTKH1" firmware with Russian/Polish pre-installed stuff, and I had some stablility issues with it.

1) I flashed "I9001XXKP4" using Odin Multi Downloader v4.43

2) Then I flashed the rooted kernel from "FMROOT_XXKG3"

The result is a VERY fast and stable rooted version. I have used it intensively for a couple of days before posting, and it works fine for me.

Hm.. I can't post the screenshot with the settings.. I'm too junior it seems.

I'm having 2 problems with my device:

1. The bottom-right corner of my display is lighter than the rest - on a black background it looks yellowish and it's visible only in the dark; it's really bugging me sometimes

2. Something extremly annoying: it sometimes loses its signal and it doesn't find it again; the only way to recover my signal is restarting the phone. This doesn't happen too often but it happens and it sucks when i have to make a quick call

How is LG Romania service? Will I recover my phone with dust under the screen due to their lack of attention?

My signal problem happens with the stock ROM and custom ROMs so this is not a software problem (although I can't tell them that I tried with other ROMs).

Should I even flash my original recovery or just the backup of the original ROM and unroot?
