i'm new here so can someone tell me whats the use of rooting my galaxy sl?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kkrraazzyy:
After rooting you can get superuser permissions and you can r/w your system files
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] manishnraj:
will this method of rooting work on android 2.3.4
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] falex007:
Yes. It will. But after rooting with SuperOneClick you will get "Kernel panic" screen, just unplug battery and put it back. That's all your phone is rooted.

just wondering

I just bought a Galaxy SL and I wanted to root it, the guide posted in the first post is quite comprehensive, however I was looking for like an .apk that I can install and press root.

Is there anything like that for the SGSL, or do I have to follow the first guide?

Thanks in advance

galaxy sl official update 2.3

hi iam using samsung galaxy sl

i have asked samsung in facebook india to know when would they will release update they told me that it would be available:

on:15th of july or 16

and i am glad to tell all galaxy sl users
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] :
Ya' gotta be kddin' me! 15 or 16th? Today is 17th bro! And Samsung said the update would come out in the month of September! Just see the date when the post was made by Samsung on Facebook. The latest is their Twitter update,i believe!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
You'd be surprised mate how updated their G+ page is aswell. All hail twitter alternative.

@android_and_me

No damage is done, You have to accept the su root command that pops up on the phone from Superuser.

Also why not flash to XXKB3, It's the most stable EUR firmware out there for FROYO. Atleast for this phone. Unless you have region specific languages you wish to retain

Open kies Goto Tools--> Install Drivers

Check if the phone is in debugging Mode then disable it

then try again

the drivers only come with the phone

How to restore IMEI on i9003

Since I had no IMEI and product version after flashing GB XXKPE, I did a flash back to original fw Froyo and rooted. Installed root explorer and can now see this efs folder (with lots of files in as I never cleared cache, see screenshots).

HOW and WHICH files do I need for back up (on PC) and what do I need to do to get IMEI back recognised from phone (and product version)? Any other data I need to back up (is there a program to just fully back up "everything" to be on the safe side?)

Please help a noob or point me to the right program. Thanks so much.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] HairyScot:
On my I9003 in Settings--Wireless & Networks--USB setting I do not have an option for "Ask on Connection". only "Samsung Kies" "Media Player" "Mass Storage"

I did manage to root the phone before and then flashed it to XXKPH. Now when I try to run Titanium Backup it tells me I need to Root the ROM.

Tried to root with USB set for "Samsung Kies" but Superoneclick just sits "waiting for device".

Then tried with USB for "Mass Storage", superoneclick runs but then hangs on #6.

Any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Erahgon:
You only need to put it on usb debugging (under "applications-> development") and ur good to go. Don't worry about the usb modes. This thread clearly hasn't been updated for GB.

Another (and IMHO better and easier) way to root would be by applying the CF-ROOT kernel patch by Skin1980. Cheers mate!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Erahgon:
@Blondbread: Try a backup application called "Nitrality". It's pretty handy and allows u to backup and restore your /efs. Btw, efs has nothing to do with the cache. There are many threads around about backing up the efs too, so give those a read a follow the instructions carefully.

Edit: Sorry for the double post!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] OwenChiang:
All,

Months before I said my root is success but fail to use any other third party software. so I unroot it finally.

few months past and i figure out whats going on finally. I try another root today. situation remain. all thirdparty camera apps not working still. and i go to my apps and check. i saw that all of my apps are there but the status is not installed yet. i hv to reinstall it to grant the permission. finally all those thrid party camera like FX, Camera350, HDR...etc are working now.

I will "reinstall" all those apps i'd got not just the camera one just in case.

hope it help those who want to root the i9003 but want to keep their camera apps.

This was the problem with my original i9003 (fw KB1). After I'd tried rooting it with SOC for the 1st time I couldn't get phone recognised via USB (had Samsung drivers only). PC crashed, no IC, etc. Restarted, DL current Kies version and sorted this problem (trial and error). When Kies finally recognised my phone I instantly tried rooting it with latest SOC version. Now it wasn't a problem anymore.

I also changed the USB port, btw. ;)

Good luck, all. :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mitoVonDido:
Maybe Q&A is the right thread for this. Our phone is not supported yet by Rom Manager, so dont ever use it for now. It sounds like u need CWM for backup purpose n ur FW is DDKB2. Pliz search skin1987 thread about CWM for Froyo, select the correct one n apply it as pda via odin. Then enter the recovery mode in cwm for backup. How? Please use search button again ;) BTW which custom roms u want to apply bcoz I dont know if DDKB2 has it. For Froyo, most of custom roms based on XXKB3..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vineet_n:
Thanks a lot for your help!! Will try out what u have said. I didn't know that no custom ROMs were available for DDKB2. Thnx for pointing out & will search the threads u have mentioned in your post

There are only themes for DDKB2, look at here. For applying this, need to root n deodex first..:D

I hope they are stable enough as i do not want to brick my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] arindammanidas:
Don't worry dude... these are official firmware(stable)! You won't brick your phone... but be careful, any mistake or flashing firmware of other phones will give u a brick... so no pressure ;)

i noticed after rooting, when i inserted the cable again, as usual it prompted me for 3 options, Kies, Media Player and USB Mass Storage. When i select on Mass Storage, it wont work, it does not proceed to that green android with a connect button below.

I would like to share my experience. The root and un-root process with SuperOneClick run without so much problems. During the process you can experience some "freezes" of the program during point 5 and 7, but, you can just unplug the cable and restart the device and retry. I used the auto exploit and with the third try my device was rooted...The un-root process go well in a try.

Probs on XXPQ with Superoneclick and bagaria-09.GT-I9003_PDA.tar

Tried flashing CF Root with bagaria-09.GT-I9003_PDA.tar.

Got strange results, phone would reboot when I tried to select an application.

Eventually went back and flashed XXKPE/XXKPQ.

Still no joy with Superoneclick.

Flashed bagaria-09.GT-I9003_PDA.tar and once again phone did the reboot thing when I selected an application.

Since I backed up all my stuff with Titanium I am now kinda stuck if I can't root the phone.

Would welcome any assistance.

I am having similar problem updating kies as well as new firmware. kies seems to be the most stupid program I have ever used. I am using win 7 x64 if that matters.

It is looping the download over & over again, it download the FW then says internet connection is lost (false) do you want to resume it, I say yes then again it does the same, if I say don't resume then it complains FW cannot be updated.

Same is happening when I am trying to update kies newest version, can I download somewhere the latest version & install over the present installation?

Where can I download Odin?
