Can take a few minutes. If more than about 5 minutes pass, restart your phone and start the one click process over again.

Here's a new one click root. 2.4.0 now flashes clockworkmod recovery for you. :) It's also a little less likely to fail, and is tested to work on Froyo.

It will also work correctly if you are on a pre-rooted kernel. It will install superuser, busybox, and clockworkmod.

For those having driver issues with their desktop PCs. Are you plugging your usb cable to the rear usb ports?

I had the same problem when I had the usb cable plugged into the front but when I plugged my cable to the rear (insert Peter Griffin laugh), Windows 7 was able to recognize and begin installing the drivers (make sure you already installed the Samsung drivers FIRST though).

Unfortunately I am now stuck at "CDC Abstract Control Model ACM" portion of the installation.

Not sure where to go from here at this moments but I'll let you all know if I figure it out...

[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
That's fine, that's just a typo on the cleanup script at the end. It already installed clockwork successfully.

Power the phone off, hold vol down, camera and power and don't let go of any 3 until it boots into CWM.

LOL well, if you really wuv me then could you be so kind as to assist me in figuring out why Windows 7 64bit is hanging when it is installing the Samsung Drivers after I have my Epic plugged into it? More specifically, why it hangs at "CDC Abstract Control Model ACM"?

Prove your wuv lol!

EDIT: I've read that I can install it by going to device manager, choose to install the driver manually and pick the 16_shrewberry folder.

I'll have to try that when I get off work. I'll let you all know if it works!

Need some help with removal

So I had the stock rom DI18, rooted using the one click 2.2.9 then clockwork 2.5.1 back when I got the phone.

Since I have tried many different roms and kernels, last I was on Sai. I never removed the original root though as I was not aware you should do this when flashing custom roms, but i never had problems.

I was going to flash the new Froyo leak and wanted to make sure I got rid of the joeykrim root still on my phone.

I tried the uninstaller, when I have the phone plugged in in developer mode and run the BAT file on my Win 7 x64 UAC disabled the command prompt sat for a long time +4 min and did not do anything, closed it and killed ADB from task manager. Attempted to run again and got device not found when it was running through everything.

Attempted to reboot the Phone and PC disabled all AV and ran again this time it locked the phone.

Rebooted the phone and PC again, ran a third time got to the same point and look stuck but the phone rebooted into blue stock loader screen. Then the script ran through again with device not found.

Rebooted the phone and everything was ok. At this point I gave up.

Booted into Clockwork wiped everything 3x and flashed the Froyo Leak and everything is loaded ok, but I still want to know how to remove the Joeykrim root.... can anyone else offer me some advice....is this even necessary? I heard having this root and flashing custom roms will cause problems.

Should I flash to stock using ODIN, is there a way to get clockwork installed without installing this root method first? The custom roms, kernels and the froyo leak are pre-rooted.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
Just unplug your phone after waiting a few minutes and plug it back in. It should work fine after that. :)

This one click root automatically tries to cleanup the joeykrim root for you, so it's unnecessary to try to remove it yourself. It replaces it with a much safer, more compatible method (that also works with rooted kernels). It also installs clockwork for you. :P
[Epic 4G Android Development] Isira:
Yes, this ClockworkMod Recovery installer will work without pre-rooting. Link

Simply execute run-try-last.bat
[Epic 4G Android Development] SantiMun:
Okay I did that and ran the run.bat file and it first told me that I could not find "Rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin" when it was clearly there even after unzipping it again. BUT after I pressed ENTER again to retry it then said I successfully rooted but it failed to clean and to do so manually. I'm not quite sure how to go about that.

i tried this and it seemed to work and it's the only way i've found that will put clockwork on my phone. the problem is when it's done and i turn off the phone and boot into clockwork i get the menu screen but when i click on an option it just gives me a blank screen. then it won't let me reboot back onto the phone. i had to wipe my phone and start over. did it again thinking maybe i messed something up same thing. any help would be appreciated.

[Epic 4G Android Development] DroidApprentice:
NEVER MIND: DRockstar's other All-in-One multi-tool worked for me, and I figured out why the OCR didn't - I wasn't mounting the SD card through the phone notifications! That's a step which is often left out of instructions. So I'm rooted now. Joy!

--

I have followed some extra-detailed instructions (can't post a link to it) to the letter, and still when I launch the .bat in the command window absolutely nothing happens. I even set a path to the Android SDK which I downloaded separately.

Could it be that somehow the Samsung drivers didn't install right? I see an ADB Samsung device in device manager when it's connected in debugging. I'm racking my brains here, I really want to get this thing rooted for a very necessary app. Please help and offer ideas.

Attempting to root epic phone

Someone pointed me to this thread to root my phone before applying another application. I'm not a developer.

I applied the drivers to my 64 bit sony laptop. When I run run.bat it just hangs. I have a couple questions:

1) where should the contents of one.click.root.exploitv2.4.0.zip

reside? It's currently on my pc's hard drive. Should it go on the phone itself and run from there?

2) Why would my phone not be recognized in debug mode? Outside of debug mode I connect my phone and the phone prompts me what type of mode (charging, mass storage, or Tethered Mode). I select "mass storage". When I attempt to turn on USB debugging the phone comes up with the message "USB connected. Remove the cable". I remove the cord, turn on the debugging, and plug it back into the computer. The computer makes the noise like a new device has been detected but nothing shows up in my explorer window. Does this mean the driver step did not work? I ran the script after that but it hangs.

Note, since writing the above, I uninstalled/re-installed the drivers. I get no errors re-installing the drivers. When plugging in the Samsung Epic phone the driver installation seems to hang on the "CDC Abstract Control Model (ACM).
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xemantic:
I had the same problem as you but I finally figured out that the options work when you use the camera button to execute them not the home button
[Epic 4G Android Development] formula84:
Thanks for the response, so if I used 2.2.9 I should not have to worry about any removal then? Or is this only with the newer 2.4?
[Epic 4G Android Development] deuceswildpolo:
I get absoulutely nothing....I installed the driver. I plugged the phone in the first time and it recognized the phone. Anytime after that when I plug the phone in it doesn't tell me the phone is connected so I dont know if it is or not.

I downloaded the One click root 2.4 extracted the files....turned off firewalls and anti virus software. Ran the run.bat file, it says click button to continue. I click the button and then nothing else happens. I dont get anyother messages. After about 5 minutes of waiting I unplug the phone and tons of messages appear.....

Error protocol fault

Error device not found

Wait for phone to reconnect

Ive tried several times to install the driver again but it says its already installed. I have the USB plugged in the back. I have the phone in debug and I also click mount on the phone. Also when the phone is plugged to the cpu after a couple minutes I get an Autoplay message from the computer.

I have had both touch pros, palm pre, and Itouches and have never had a probably modding before, but I am perplexed and confused why this isn't working? Im begining to think im S.O.L. Help would be appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ZenInsight:
When I ran the 2.4.0, after originally using 2.2.6, it seemed to go great, but when I go to use Android Commander it thinks I don't have root. I checked in terminal and I get the # sign. I have apps that need root and they work fine. Anyone have any ideas why Android Commander tells me I don't have root?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ZenInsight:
Try a different PC.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deuceswildpolo:
i just tried on the other cpu, it says phone not connected.

Finally got everything running...:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] ZenInsight:
First run the .bat. THEN plug the phone in (with debugging on...don't mount it) then hit a keyboard key and you should get some messages to wait....

Leave the phone alone until it reboots itself. Should take 5 min.

Again, start the .bat file first, then plug phone in, then hit keyboard key to begin. If this doesn't work you may have the wrong driver in (32bit vs 64bit).
[Epic 4G Android Development] Muckrak3r:
First of all, thanks for spending the time and effort on these 1-click root methods. They are so great!

Now, I had an issue, and on this page alone there are multiple people with issues as well. We follow the directions EXACTLY, and they don't work! We get hung up on the screen where it says press any key to continue, we do, and it just hangs there forever.

Here is what I found: Put phone in debug, attach to PC, then run ADB in the extracted folder, and THEN run.bat

Possibly connecting the phone AFTER double-clicking run.bat will work, but please update the directions to say so! There are a ton of barely capable root users out here (such as myself), and getting bogged down in minutia like that is annoying ;)

Edit: Accidentally deleted 'browser' using Titanium Backup and then SkyFire wouldn't work. So I re-flashed to stock and then re-ran this 1 click root again. Running adb first did not get run.bat to work. Just like the last time, I had to do run.bat, close the window out, run adb, and then run.bat worked. Hope this helps some folks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
I think I have a fix for it. Apparently, adb will hang on get-state if you don't (re)start the adb server daemon first when the phone isn't connected, for some bizarre reason.

Thanks for finding this behavior out. It never occurred to me to test it with the phone disconnected. :P

I re-uploaded the one click in the same location with the fix.

I created a restore point before i flashed the froyo rom now im trying to go back to stock. i went into clockwork, found my restore point, restore successful but when i reboot, it hangs on the samsung screen even over night...need help!

I am getting really poor DL and UL speeds on this root on 3G for some reason. After flashing to stock and updating to DI18 I was getting .7Mbps UL. Today, after doing this root, I am getting .2Mbps UL max. Basically pre-DI18 cap speeds.

Anyone else seeing this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ZenInsight:
Are you on the Froyo leak. It's a known issue. We need the radio image for Froyo. DK05 probably has it but devs are still workin on that ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Muckrak3r:
(it took 5 minutes to UL this screencap!)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Muckrak3r:
Okay thanks for the reply. I may flash back to stock then, this is just too slow for me. But man, I hate the stock apps!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jimmyz:
I think your problem is that the CWM restore does not restore the kernel so you are now trying to boot into the froyo kernel with your "old system". The key is to flash back the kernel associated with your "restore point" then restore your CWM backup. Reboot holding down the "1" key and restore a stock rom with ODIN and go from there.

Installation aborted.

I need help, I can't figure out how to fix this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] alphafx7:
Don't know what happened but I plugged it back, and the SU popped up when the program finished. Took about 5 tries. Now when I go into adb shell it pops up # instead of $.

At first I tried to root it manually, and did get # but the root didn't stick after restarting the phone.

Then I went back to this and somehow it works.

Tried another epic and it works the second time.

For me this wouldn't work on win7 64 bit(driver flakiness and recognition), but worked like a charm first time on good ole xp.
[Epic 4G Android Development] CompCrash:
OK I found a solution when clockwork doesn't want to replace the stock recovery.

I am referring to this error:

E:fail to verify whole-file signature

It actually quite simple to fix (after a week of me pulling my hair out). Thanks goes to sauron0101.

That should be all, it worked for me right away. I hope this helps other that were having this issue too.

Stupid mistake with Recovery

Hello! First of all thank you for this great and simple root method :). It worked excellently for me and installed superuser, busybox, and recovery for me when it first ran beautifully.

However, I made a stupid mistake when I tried to see if I could get ROM Manager working just out of curiosity. It prompted me to install clockworkmod recovery (again). Probably because it appears this is a modified version of it and it did not recognize it. Not thinking, I allowed it to do this, this landed me back with stock recovery and a rooted phone.

I have tried running this script again, which did not work. I managed to get clockwork back (in a fashion) using this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782300

However, this only functions when at boot holding Down + Camera + Power, and stock recovery still boots on command and shortcuts such as from quickboot.

I'm really sorry about this stupid mistake, but would appreciate any help/ideas anyone has :/
