Doesn't work for me. Galaxy S Plus+ i9001

Android 2.3.5. I9001XXKPF

GINGERBREAD.XXKPJ

Any ideas? I'd love to use this bro.

It initialises daemon, but then just sits on 'daemon running' and doesn't do anything after.

Am I supposed to have the phone on or in download mode? I've tried both, only gets detected when on. Got all the stuff running, debug mode etc. Drivers and ADB drivers installed etc.

What's up?
[Android Software Development] DooMLoRD:
that means adb server is unable to start... close other adb requiring apps... kies/etc...
[Android Software Development] leijonasisu:
Thanks for the quick reply man. Can I just uninstall Kies I hate the thing to be honest or do I need the drivers? Anyway I'll disable the Kies services (good enough) do a reboot, ensure they are off and try again. Lets see how it goes man, if this works I'll donate because I've tried 8 other methods and none worked.

EDIT: Nup, tried 4 times did 3 reboots and tried different USB ports. Nothing works. Just says:

* daemon not running. starting it now *

* daemon started successfully *

_

then I just get a blinking cursor.

That's it. Even left it in for 5 minutes. Got debugging on, drivers installed like I said etc. etc. Kies is not running and no Kies services or processes are running. Just booted up so yeah. No idea what's up.

if i understand correct after restart you might want to re-run the zergRush binary for it to work

or maybe talk with Grooby or anyone else capable for an insecure kernel

i have the same problem like above, but the phone will not restart itself and needed to be turn off manually. and i tried re-run the script back but still no success.

insecure or rooted kernel is actually already available for sgs2 i9100G but we just hope if possible, we dont want to increase the binary counter first.

[Android Software Development] mnongkhlaw:
No yellow triangle!

Rooted successfully. However, I expected the yellow exclamation mark and there was none, most probably because I didn't flash an insecure kernel.

But how do I make sure that I'm rooted? Yes, su commands work. Is that sufficient proof? But one caveat is that entering commands containing an i in terminal, it converts it to uppercase (I). Any way around that? And I had a busybox apk. After rooting using this guide, I again clicked on that accidentally with the result that now I might be having multiple versions of it. How to get rid of the apk version?
[Android Software Development] kholk:
@mnongkhlaw

If su works, you're rooted.
[Android Software Development] foxcartman:

Nothing comes up when I search 'adb driver for skyrocket' on Google and Samsung has only owners manuals for download.
[Android Software Development] DooMLoRD:
dude adb drivers are device specific... u need to check ur device forums for more info...

u are not the first user of that device who is trying this, few users have already tried it and it worked for their device... so u might want to search thru the threads (this and the others mentioned in the first post) to find out who were those users and may be ask them for device specific help...

generally if u install the "pc suite"/"pc companion"/"kies" software for that particular device then these drives get installed...
[Android Software Development] Sn8kbordin:
Samsung does have 80MB worth of something called Kies, and it does not mention anything about this "adb" thing-a-ma-jig.

Well thanks!

(it wasn't hard, was it?)

[Android Software Development] FadeFx:
D00ml0rd, just to let you know, for rooting the Vtab it is neccessary to change the adb.exe in your toolkit with the one in android sdk. Possibly this is a problem for other devices as well. I have made a varriant for now, but if u provide a corrected version I'd better like to only link to your thread to keep the downloads yours.

Success with I727R

OK, off the top, I had success with a Rogers Samsung Galaxy SII LTE SGH-I727R (the Rogers version of the AT&T Skyrocket)

For those having troubles finding the Skyrocket drivers, these worked for me;

Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1_3_2200_0.exe

I understand that the same drivers are left behind in the Programs folder if you install Kies, but I didn't want that bloatware on my PC... If the link above goes down - it's not too hard to Google this driver pack.

Anyway, install the drivers and make sure you see the Samsung device (and no errors) in your Device Manager.

Test out ADB from DOS before you try this root. Go to the folder where adb.exe is installed and use this command

adb devices

You should get a reply that says "List of devices attached", with a hex number under that heading. If you don't get any devices listed, you didn't follow the instructions on the first page. Go back to the beginning before trying the root (turn on debugging, install drivers, test adb again).

Only after you get a reply on ADB Devices should you attempt to start...
