+100000 for that, the modded 3e didn't work for me, but that [your] method worked wonders. Pretty epic guide
BTW the link for the UPDATE.ZIP is wrong, it's not CWM recovery Had to do it manually.

Hey, appreciate the kind words. The update.zip I have posted is NOT CWR... it is just a zip to give root. If a person didn't have CWR prior on their phone they would need that to root, then go to the market and grab Rom Manager to flash CWR. Most have CWR/RM so they do not need the update.zip I included.
Maybe I need to make that more clearer in the guide? Thoughts?
Maybe.
I have a Galaxy S I9000 and I've done a few things with it (root, flash ROMs etc.), but the Vibrant was SO different. But I thought that the update.zip included was the CWM one.
Anyway, I'm done with it, but still can't make it work with my european SIM card

Hi all....
Yes, there are loads of threads on this, but it appears my own specific problem isn't mentioned anywhere and I'm hoping someone can help.
The normal 'update.zip' way or rooting (official) 2.3.3 just doesn't work on my Ace - I get the following error:
Applying Multi-CSC
Can't access to '/system/csc/h3g/system'
Installation aborted
I think it may be something to do with the three mobile firmware, but can't be sure - is there any way of rooting this so I can use Titanium Backup?
TIA

Yes, it is, and have also tried renaming it as suggested a couple of other places - very frustrating!
You're on stock recovery ? If yes , flash CWM and try again .

Hi,
Im on 3 and I rooted sucessfully (and unrooted) if you look on the android foums website in the galaxy ace section - look for a post uk gingerbread 3 network out today then read through there u should find out how.
It wont let me post a link on here!
Note the comment about the error.
Worked for me

The last time I tried CWM on my last Ace it totally bricked it! Not compatible, so reluctant to go down that road again unless I know for sure it won't brick it. I was lucky enough to get the bricked one swapped out as faulty as it was less than a week old.....
EDIT: Actually, it was ROM Manager that bricked the phone, but I'm wary of anything with the 'ClockWorkMod' name attached to it!

I'll go find the thread, thanks.....
EDIT: Found it, but although my own errors as described in my 1st post, it definitely isn't rooted after it.... no root privileges for Titanium or anything else when trying to run them.....
Does anyone know if there's a compatible CWM for the Ace? I mean one that doesn't brick it when you select 'Backup' from the CWM menu!!

No joy - I did get CWM installed, and did a backup but still can't root the stupid thing. CWM gives less info on the problem than Samsung recovery....

I think I'll just have to give up as it appears no one else has this problem so it's not likely to be solved.... at least it never got bricked this time...
I actually downloaded the update.zip again and tried..... different error in CWM, but much more info this time......
I think your only way to root is to flash a custom ROM .

Ta - what custom ROM's are available, is there a list anywhere? Is there anything actually better than 2.3.3?
I guess since I can't use TB I'd need to reinstall all my apps again if I flashed a custom ROM!! *Groan*
you can try cf-root by ketut.kumajaya
Tried VillanROM (three times) but no keyboard - seems like a common problem with it. Don't think I fancy the cf-root. Too many files available at the bottom of the post and don't know which one to use, plus many pages of problems with it, so I think I'll pass.....
I too own an SGA (2.3.3) on 3 and rooted it using this zip:
http://db.tt/6YsR3WVM
I selected "install zip from sdcard" instead of "install update from sdcard".
Worked first time for me. Hope that helps =)

Tis' OK - I put 2.3.4 on it, then CodeROM v2, so it's now rooted anyway.... at last!!
Thanks to all.
hello guys just had some questions about rooting. I have been trying to root my friends phone and i was able to get the s-off using rev but when i go to root checker its not rooted and i cant go back to stock need help asap

Correct. Revolutionary does NOT root your phone for you, however they do give you the flashable zip to root the phone.
You can find the zip here: http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary
Look under the Common Problems & Questions section. A few lines down will be the link to download the zip.
thanks for the info if you can keep your ears on i may reply back with more question if it doesnt work

Not a problem. I'll check back soon. Should be straight forward and you shouldn't have any problems. Just put it on your sdcard and flash like any ROM
so i downloaded the file and tryed to load it but it says meta-inf and system and not else what should i do
Don't open the zip. Put the whole zip on the root of your sdcard, reboot into recovery and flash the zip.
ok ill try again but thats what i did if it doesnt work what else can i do to make it work
Hm... try redownloading it? Might be corrupt. Other than that I don't know, shouldn't have a problem with it. Thats the same zip I used to root my tbolt and I had no problems.
ok i just want to say thanks for all the info it worked

Hey guys, i don't usually make posts for every question i have, unless i absolutely don't find an answer searching or googling. I find myself in the position where i want to customize my Hyperdroid ROM and i can't manage to install DOC's Surgeon.
I think maybe the file i find in AndroidMeda Rom Tool is just an update, and not a full release, but being a noob is difficult, and i really didn't managed to pass this!
So, long story short, how can i flash a surgeon that is on androidmeda rom tool? I tried the Surgeon_Lucid_v5.0.zip and i can't get through, it fails to install under recovery mode.
I would very much appreciate a solution to my dumb question, hope i don't irritate somebody.

You should download again, and apply the surgeon in the rom tool!

When installing multi-csc it says the following (also in android system recovery):

Have you changed the kernel from the one that comes with Hyperdroid? As the OTA tool will only work automatically with the kernel the rom comes with.
If so you will need to download the file via the OTA tool, find where it saves, should be somewhere in the SD card (Hint /sdcard/Hyperdroid_Androidmedia)
Reboot into CWM recovery
Flash the zip manually.

even if you changed kernels you can still flash stuff that you download from the OTA tool. So say you want to download Docs surgeon. Download it through the OTA app and then rather than apply now press apply later. Then try and get into recovery..there install zip and go through the folder were it says hyperdroid androidmeda...there you have all the files you have downloaded and just flash like you would normally do something...But only use this if you want to change kernels..My advice is the same as the guy above posted..Use the kernel provided by the team and you should not have any problems flashing stuff through the OTA app...
It worked fine, thank you again. Now i figured, indeed the change of my kernel led to that conflict.
Cheers guys!

Huh, I didn't think about you changed the kernel. Pongster's HDK kernel is very good, don't change that in my opinion.
So, Im glad that your problem solved.

I copy pasted this info for ya from here post 167 and from post 172..
1. Use Odin 1.85 in Admin Mode for Windows users.
2. Install TWRP 2.5 via PDA settings.
3. Reboot phone into Recovery.
4. Install SuperSU via the Zip.
5. Reboot phone and viola. SuperSU is there and works.
Download the Odin Method herE:
http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/96
Flash via Odin. Then download SuperSU.
Located here:
http://download.chainfire.eu/204
Then reboot to recovery, flash the zip and all done.
Thank you thank you

When you flash the rom then flash TWRP 2.5, just reboot into recovery, and verify your flash worked. But you don't have to flash the superuser.zip.
As you exit TWRP, it will say you're not rooted, and would you like to do that? Then TWRP will create the root for you.
But, either method gets the job done.
2.5 does not give that option.
That's in older versions.
Well the 2.5 I have did give the option. And I didn't make it up. It was mentioned in the development section so I tried it. I thought it was a very slick piece of work.
Hmm That's odd, I too saw that and thought I'd try it as well. 2.5 did not give me that prompt.
Me being me, I redownloaded, tried again same thing. tested it on the previous version, and only then did I get a prompt.
I uninstalled SU to try to recreate it so I could make sure I didn't just drink the koolaide and it didn't ask. But I think once you let TWRP flash the binary file it won't ask anymore.
I did get it to re-ask if I wanted to root. It flashed the SU binary.
But I did have to also install busybox (I used sterison app).

mine as well matter of fact yesterday i flashed a zip and after I wiped cache and dalvik i went to reboot and it said it "appears you have lost root" or something like that and "swipe to reinstall" saved my bacon, thought it was really cool.
