Is this what your looking for?

I forget where I got it. Probally was included with a ROM I used once. The software says v27 Mods by jonasl, as such credit goes to them. Also Credits to modaco for the original apk As for making it Black and Red, sorry, Im not sure who to thank.

[Captivate Android Development] PhrProfess:
THANK YOU!

No other method was working for me (not SuperOneClick, not these ADB instructions). Sure enough, using Terminal Emulator, I was able to get #. I wasn't able get this through adb, nor was I through SuperOneClick (infinite loop @ "mount" command).

I noticed a few things:

-When I compared filesizes from your provided Rage Root files, to the ones that were included in this thread (which also come with SuperOneClick—and which I was unable to get working), I noticed major differences. This gave me hope!, as I'd tried everything else that I knew how to prior to this point.

-My "XXXXXXXXXX" was actually only 4 characters: "stl6".

-My "YYYY" was only 3 characters ("rfs").

-SuperUser showed up on my applist without even requiring a reboot.

THANKS AGAIN

I shall now attempt to apply a lagfix; I will report back with results.

--Bah: no luck. RyanZA's OCLF V2.2+ returns error:

Could not mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 onto /dbdata/rfsdata: mount: No such file or directory

--OCLF V1+ returns error:

Could not create /data/linux.ex2 - dd: can't open '/data/linux.ex2': Permission denied

Uh-oh.
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Yup same problem here. I was able to root it manually a few days ago, but have as of yet been unable to lag fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] deacfire:
Strange. After I rooted I had no problem using RyanZa's Lagfix. Your still using the stock rom after rooted correct?
[Captivate Android Development] PhrProfess:
Correct. I've tested out quite a few apps from the market, though.

When I mount my device, I notice that there are some files on my internal SDCard:

-su

-Superuser.apk

-nv_data.bin

-busybox (why is this there, I uninstalled that)

-update.zip

...and some folders:

-layar

-twc-cache

-Android -» data -» com.cooliris.media

-Android -» data -» com.google.android.apps.maps

-svox

...These all have subdirectories.

Not knowing what a default internal SD directory ought to look like, I wonder: Could any of these be causing a conflict? I read that some said not to have any apps installed on the SDCard while trying to mess around (with ROMs, I think), so I tried removing what I could, and then rebooting (and some folders respawned), and reapplying the fix—no dice. I've since replaced all of the folders and the files.
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Stock rom here as well.
[Captivate Android Development] deacfire:
Hrmm not quite sure why lag fix isn't working for you guys. Just a quick question, in RyanZa One Click, is "Un-Root Device" green?

I still have no problems applying RyanZa Lag Fix to my Captivate as I had to redo it last night after i switched back to the Rogers stock rom after testing Cog 2.2. My guess, and it is just a guess, is that the root never applied properly. Have you tried rerooting the device?
[Captivate Android Development] mrprefect:
Thought I might give you some info as well since i've been messing with mine for about a week now. I was able to root the device, oneclick did not work originally for this and I used ADB method similar to what you had here. After this I went for the lag fix, everything was green like it was supposed to be, installed the ext2 tools no problem and then get the same error about unable to mount when applying lag fix.

At this point I used OCLF to unroot the device and it did, I then used the oneclick to re-root which it did this time, in terminal I can su properly and again all the tools are green in OCLF. Tried to lagfix and failed again so I started making some changes manually based on the error messages that were out put. Created the folder it was trying to mount to for instance and then set the permission to this to 777 that would allow world write access, this allowed it to create the new partition in ext2 but when mounting the loopback device it fails saying it doesn't exist (which it doesn't I looked) so while I did get a bit further the lag fix still fails. I would gladly apply the lag fix manually through the terminal if I knew everything that was being done to re-format the partitions for ext3 but I can't seem to find that info anywhere.

Next best thing I would guess is to install a stock rom from rogers from someone else and see if there are any differences, I'm guessing based on the devices in the /dev folder that there are more then one image on the devices some set up more similar to AT&T that the lag fix will work on.
[Captivate Android Development] deacfire:
Try the stock rom in the main Rogers Captivate forum. It is one i used to go from Cog 2.2 back to stock and it applied the root and lag fix without a hitch. Give it a try and let us know!
[Captivate Android Development] mrprefect:
Happen to have a link right to the forum? so many threads to search through...

I'm new to the whole android thing though I've been working with linux for years but its a bit of a learning curve coming from a blackberry.

also what are you using to flash your device?
[Captivate Android Development] agaruba:
I'm having the same problem. Let me know if you somehow fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
I was finally able to get my last night.

Turns out my first root attempt was a failure. I had to unroot via an update.zip method as i did not have the permissions to remove the files from terminal.

Once unrooted i then did the update.zip method for the I897, and modified the script to look for I896 instead. It worked flawlessley. I am now getting the pop-up asking for root permissions. I had never seen it work previously.

I was then able to install OCLF without any problems. (and it popped up asking for root)

I am now rooted and lag fixed. Previous quadrant score was at 860's and i pulled a 2285 last night after the OCLF.
[Captivate Android Development] inningsdefeat500:
Can you please tell us how to modify script and how to flash back to stock..I need to return my phone and superuse app wont go away after unrooting and factory reset
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Well i cannot help you flash back to stock as i don't quite know how to do that yet myself. But i can help you unroot, re-root, and lag fix.

I have found the files again and uploaded them to rapid share with the necessary modifications.

Download THIS FILE and once downloaded, rename it to update.zip Be careful not to name it update.zip.zip by accident.

Place the file into the root of your sdcard.

Shutdown the phone with the power button, or pull the battery out and put it back in.

Enter recovery mode:

While holding the volume up and volume down buttons press and hold the power button until you see the white text that says SGH-I896, then release the power button only.

When in recovery mode use the volume down key to highlight reinstall packages, then press the power button. It should say completed and reboot the phone.

Once the phone has rebooted, do the exact same thing again, only use THIS FILE instead. Dont forget to rename the file again!

Then install the OCLF from market. Install the EXT2 tools first. Then run the lag fix installer.

I assume you already know how to enter recovery mode, but this way someone else searching for a fix will have all the info at their disposal here.

EDIT!!!

Some mirrors for the files

Hi all i am very lost here....i have tried for hours the last few days on how to root this i896 with the super one click method with no luck....anyways i was speaking to my brother earlier and he has done it with his bell vibrant no problem....anyways what i want to know is what is the purpose of rootindg the phone? I thought it was for downloading 3rd party apps or whats the purpose for superuser? The reason why i am asking is that i can download 3rd party apps already...i allow them on my application settings and download a app downloader and works fine? Im lost someone please help.
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Take a look here. It answered alot of my questions.

http://www.androidcentral.com/rooting-it-me-some-qa

Also, if you only follow the second half of my post above you should be able to root it as well.
[Captivate Android Development] bnevets27:
Thanks deacfire! The one click wouldn't work for me but the second method did.

I am having a really annoying problem though. The superuser.apk that you included just gave me a black screen. So I updated it to this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=682828&highlight=no+apps+in+list

Which is newer. But now it just says "no apps in list". Tried installing it from the zip, tried from the market no different.

I do have apps that require superuser: ROM Manager, Root Explorer, Adfree. They all work, also have titanium backup but its is telling me it needs root access.

How can I fix this, it is a major issue.

EDIT:Thanks impulser91!! That work and was SUPER easy! Should probably get posted in the original post.
[Captivate Android Development] agaruba:
when i copy update.zip into the /sdcard and then try hitting reinstall packages, it results in an error and aborts. any suggestions?

Nevermind....it worked :D:D:D:D:D MUAHAHAHAHAHAH LET THE FUN BEGIN!
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Sweet, 2 users. Not bad for under 10 posts :p

I'm glad its working for others. I had one heck of a time finding the right combination of files and process's for the I896. I am an IT professional and it took me a few days of fumbling around all the I896 and I897 posts.

Anyways, glad to hear it worked, and i hope other people find it useful as well. I will keep the originals, so if the links go down someone just PM me and i will load them somewhere else.
[Captivate Android Development] mrprefect:
I could just about kiss you.... but I won't :D

Thanks for the update files they worked like a charm. I had a similar issue where the device didn't seem to be properly rooted, though it didn't give me any issues with most things when applying the lagfix it would die.

applied both your unroot and then root and it worked flawlessly the first time, lagfix then ran with no issues and my quadrant scores are 2250 now.

Not sure what you did exactly, I've tried rooting from update.zip from oneclick and neither worked I ended up rooting with the ADB and though it seemed to work it apparently did not.

Thanks again
[Captivate Android Development] deacfire:
Thanks man! You rock! Least now we have narrowed down the problem. I am going to update the walkthru a little later on with my own set of files instead of using ones from another site. That should fix all the problems without having to do the update.zip method. But in case it doesnt then I am going to add your steps in as well! Thanks again!
[Captivate Android Development] Benny_Lava:
Yea thanks man. tried all of the other one click fixes with no luck.

Done this and my Quadrant score is now 2287.
[Captivate Android Development] Keithyv`:
Thanks for the info.... it's nice to know how to do it.

How do you unroot using this method?

Now if we could only work out how to unlock the damn things!
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
If you want to unroot with my steps above, then just use the first update.zip and steps. It will take care of it.
[Captivate Android Development] stavs:
hey can you rehost those 2 files you have impulser...maybe somewhere else. It has reached the maximum upload limit:o
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Not a problem. Give me a few minutes.

[Captivate Android Development] stavs:
amazing! thanks man!!:D
[Captivate Android Development] stavs:
impulsar, im getting a problem with your root files.

So I turned the unroot folder into a zip file name update.zip

copied it to my phone director and isntalled to the base directory

went into recovery mode and went to install the update.zip

before it began to even install it aborted.

am i doing something wrong here, I consider myself tech saavy, but i am really stumped on this one. What could be going wrong?
[Captivate Android Development] :
damn !!!!!

I spent an hour trying to do it over and over again it didn't work, tried all the steps it works fine till the time I have to do it on the phone using terminal

It keeps telling me rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin not found

help me what's wrong here ?

I follow all the steps from top to bottom still I can't root :(:(

and the update.zip file you have up isn't allowed to download either cuz it reached it's 10 download limit
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
I just uploaded new links. Looks a couple posts up.
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Okay, so just to help some of the new guys a bit.

If you do NOT have the adb drivers installed. You can plug the usb cable in, click mass storage, then slide down the notification area and click the "USB - click here to mount" It will pop up a warning, click mount.

Then go to your computer, open My computer, go into the root of the internal 16GB storage, and paste the update.zip file in there. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE RENAMED IT TO update.ZIP. Remember, windows hides extensions by default, so you probably only have to have it named update.

Also, these scripts are ONLY for the I896, it will definitely NOT work for the I897 and might work for some other phones, but i suggest going to another thread for other phones.

A little more advanced way:

If you do HAVE the adb tools installed, you can setup your phone with USB debugging mode turned on, then connect the usb. Copy the update.zip to the tools directory of the android folder. Open a command prompt and CD into the tools directory. type "adb devices" and make sure it says your device is online. then type "adb push update.zip /sdcard/" Disconnect the usb and follow my previous instructions to reboot the phone and enter recovery mode. Do not include the quotes " when entering adb commands.
[Captivate Android Development] rdubz:
Finally!

Got my Captivate on Thursday (after some hefty Rogers complaining, I might add), and have been twiddling w/ the idea of rooting. Broke down and started trying the one-click last night. I run linux mostly, but have a few x64 w7 machines.

After trying repeatedly, I gave up around 0300

started trying again today around 2300, one-click, pdanet drivers. I got one to finally get through the rage part but hung, as was the case with the others.

Superuser was installed, but no popups and titanium wasn't working.

Re-fiddled, and somehow got one-click working. Don't know how, alot of plugging, unplugging while doing the root, seemed to make it work. I've edited NOTHING on my end, and it is a legit Rogers I896.

Tried the one-click lag fix from Ryanza and everything was red, which brought me to this forum. so I re-click root one the one-click root program, it said rooted, I re-enabled non-market apps, and still red in RyanZa.

Rebooted the phone manually w/ the power button, and everything went green. just installed the lagfix, and I went from 862 I think to around 2125.

So, not much help by way of instructions, but I am proof that it can be done. I'm a techy guy, but I'm also VERY VERY lazy, so I was reluctant to do the ADB method, and didn't see any great instructions to do it from my linux box.

Captivate... out!
[Captivate Android Development] Edges633:
Lagfix doesn't run

Followed root instructions and everything worked.

However, just tried the lagfix and as the others previously said, it fails.

Also tried Titanium backup and it's not working as well.

UPDATE: Guess I should've read the posts after before posting! Since applying impulser's directions, both lagfix and titanium backup are running! THANKS!
[Captivate Android Development] nguy467:
Just stopping in to say thanks! Super One Click was just not working, so I did the manual and ended up where you were with the OCLF error (failed root). I did the update as you posted and it worked great.

My QS was 2165! up from 899, crazy!

Does anyone know how this compares up to the iPhone4?
[Captivate Android Development] :
It worked yippie !!!!! great thanks and the oneclickfix from the store worked too. thank thank thank thank you :)))))

Now I just backed up my stock rogers ROM using ROM manager and now I'd see what other ROM to install

If any recommendations please let me know :)
[Captivate Android Development] stavs:
tried this on a different computer, and it worked... didnt work on my main desktop for some reason. Anyways, I am noticing the battery life is dropping considerably faster, any tweaks we can do? Also, is it worth it to boot a custom 2.2 froyo rom? I heard that 2.2 helps the battery life for some reason. The only thing i am worried about is the GPS module.
[Captivate Android Development] redjersey:
I'm doing step 2 however it doesn't give me the serial number all I have is the port number:

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Make sure you have your USB in debugging mode. If that doesn't fix it make sure the drivers are actually installed in the device manager. And lastly, try a different USB cable. The cable that came with my captivate was garbage and I had to swap it out before it would stay connected to my computer
[Captivate Android Development] redjersey:
thanks impulser91, now my captivate is rooted. :D

Now I'm having the lagfix problem. For some reason I can't install lagfix (The error message I got was : Could not mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 onto /dbdata/rfsdata: mount: no such file or directory)
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Did you get the superuser popup asking for root permission when you tried to lagfix?
[Captivate Android Development] redjersey:
nope. And the funny thing is even though I have the "Superuser Permission" icon showing in my app drawer but when I click on it it just gives me a "Superuser permission" header with black screen
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
If you are not getting the superuser root popup then you are NOT truly rooted. Run the UNROOT and ROOT from my post way back and try again. Make sure to actually unroot first as just trying to re root again didnt work so well for me.
[Captivate Android Development] redjersey:
thanks, will do it tomorrow :)

[Captivate Android Development] Subrock:
I'm unable to connect to any pc in any way shape or form and I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand getting root via clockwork recovery. Most of the update.zip files I've tried don't work on the i896 and fail with a status 7. Anyone had success rooting from recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] PhrProfess:
Thank you, impulser91! Your unroot/root update.zip's and your steps worked for me perfectly. I am now rooted and OCLF'd; I scored a 2202 in Quadrant right off the bat (up from 876 stock).

It was a bit tricky to get hold of those files. Mediafire kept giving me temporarily-unavailable errors—so I've taken the liberty of attaching them to this post

Cheers
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
The update.zip files MUST be modified for the I896 as the scripts have all been designed to look for I897, and will not find the correct script path if the model # does not match. That's why the ones i have here DO work, because i made the change and repacked the .zip file.
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Thanks for that. It will make it alot easier for people to get the files.

BTW, how did you do that, did you have to be allowed first, or is it a post count thing.
[Captivate Android Development] longtou10297:

[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
I recommend trying the update.zip method that I have in my previous post here. Most of us have been having trouble with the manual method.

It works. Thx a lot. But after i click superuse permission, nothing appear..just blakc screen.
[Captivate Android Development] redjersey:
if you don't allow any apps to have the superuser rights, then when you click on that icon it should be blank.

install the lagfix then you will see a prompt asking if you want to grant lagfix, say yes then click the "superuser permission" icon again, lagfix should be listed there

Hey everyone!

I'm having some big problems trying to root my Captivate with Rogers. I have tried a bunch of different methods, and every time I try and load the phone in recovery mode (re-installing packages) I get this error:

Installing Muti-CSC

--Install from sd card...

Finding Update package...

Opening Update package...

E: Can't open /sdcard/update.zip

(No such file or directory)

Installation aborted.

I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong. I've done the "one click" roots, and several "manual" roots. I only have a mackbook, so it's hard to do the manual ones.. :(

I've been copying the "update.zip" file onto my sd card from my desktop, but this error has been coming up consistently no matter what I do to try and root the phone.

Anyways, if someone could help me out, It would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

-Chris
[Captivate Android Development] impulser91:
Sounds like you are copying it to your External SD card. It needs to be on the root of the INTERNAL storage, thats the 16GB storage that came with the phone. Not the sd card that you can pop into it.

And if your using my files, make sure they are named update.zip, not update.zip.zip. I have not used mac's much so i don't know if they show file extensions by default or not.
