hello everyone, im a newbie to this who idea of rooting phones and making them do what u want, and i must say it turns me on hahaha jk anyways i have no technical knowledge and was wondering if u fine gentlemen could tell me whats the best way o root my phone or if i can pay someone in my area to do it for me and add new stuff to it like the one click lag fix n stuff like that. please help thanks guys!
You should start off with this thread:NOOB GUIDE: HOW TO ROOT/ODIN/FLASH/RECOVER ** 04/28/11 W/ Videos **
It's always better to understand what you're doing to your phone before you attempt to do anything (no one wants to permanently damage their phone).
Well you picked a good phone to learn on lol, the vibrant is by far the easiest to root/flash custom roms on.There are basically 3 things you need. superoneclick on your PC, rom manager on your phone and the rom you want to flash.
But as stated above you def want to read up just to make sure you know what you are doing, but its not difficult at all! The link posted above should def explain everything. Also if you ever run into a problem, just google the problem lol i am usually able to find a link to a thread on here explaining how to fix it GL!
I kinda got in the habit of rooting via Z4root app on my phone after using odin to go back to android 2.1 (eclair). I just keep the .apk file on my SD card.
The reason I did this was because while odin is an annoying and buggy program to deal with, it is the only way to truly reset your phone to stock if you mess something serious up. It is a fail-safe of sorts so it is worth it to familiarize yourself with that process.
The "noob guide" posted should outline what you need to flash back to stock 2.1 which is odin (duh), a .pit file, and a .tar zip file.
I go back to 2.1 since z4root I believe has to be used on eclair? I could not get it working on stock 2.2 froyo at any rate.
once your phone is rooted the fun part begins from there you can download many different rom zip files which are available in the vibrant development section. General rule of thumb is to always FLASH ROMS at 100% battery.
Head to the market and pick up Rom Manager and Titanium Back up. Open rom manager once you have a rom downloaded and "reboot into recovery" (to manually flash a rom) press volume keys to select "reinstall packages", wait, then reinstall packages again. This should now be the green clockwordmod (commonly referred to as cwm) recovery menu. Scroll down to "install from zip", "choose zip", "download", select the rom you downloaded, yes, go back, reboot system.
The phone will take awhile to boot up, when it does let it SIT FOR TEN MIN. This is to help iron out any bugs. Reboot the phone. Sign into google and restore apps if you saved them in titanium back up. Reboot again just for good measure
If you decide to flash a different KERNEL than the one that comes with the rom, you don't have to be at 100% battery, just go into cwm and flash the kernel zip like you would a rom.
When not flashing from stock it is recommended that you:
-factory/data reset
-install rom
-clear cache partition
-advanced> clear dalvik cache
All while in cwm.
Remember to hit the "Thanks" button to the creator of the ROM / KERNEL / THEME / APP you apply.

Easiest way = download the AIO Vibrant Toolbox. You wont need anything else. Very easy to use. Odin, Rooting and Flashing instructions all included. Hope this turns you on even more. LOL

next time i should disguise myself as a helpless little girl to get some response to my questions.

Ah well, was bored. it also took me a fair amount of reading to get it all straight in my head. When I was first starting out.
And I'm a girl so it really doesn't matter to me either way.
No male ego to bruise haha.
Hey hun.
You picked a good phone to start learning about those things.
The Vibrant is extremely easy to root and do pretty much everything.
Just keep in mind these two things: Follow the instruction PRECISELY and unless it's absolutely necessary, do NOT use ODIN.
At least not at first, after you get a handle of your phone, you can start experimenting.
Also, when flashing ROM/Kernels, etc, read the comments first for issues that might surface.
As they say, always read the OP completely, then do what you need
EDIT: LOOOOOOL
Can't believe I fell for a troll.
Geez, I sure have been away from the internet forums for too long...
Just google rooting a samsung vibrant. You can also find out how to do it all over this forum. Plus roms pretty much install them selves now once you have everything set up... Read in to it about and you will find its super easy.

The obvious answer would be: If you don't like it, don't download it.
You make it sound as if he is forcing you to sign up with your precious email and download from his server..and when things don't turn out the way you wanted you start to insult him and his work?
Oh come on..this is no way to behave on XDA, which i have always seen as a friendly place with respectable and polite posters.
As for the fact that Darkside Agent doesn't have as high a post count as you in here is because he is fairly new to the Android modding scene + XDA. But he is quite well-known and trusted in other phone modding forums..something you could have found out if you had bothered to actually read his website a bit more thoroughly.
Goddamn, some people are just unbelievable..

Unfortunately i cant help you, i dont know anything about that module. i use a custom kernel, where everthing like that is in the kernel and not apart of the operation system, unlike modules that are in the operating system and need to be insmoded on boot.
With the custom kernel im using, Zombie Panik (link in my signature) does not have hotspot functionality yet, as far as im aware.
If i were you i would go to this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1152
and read the first post very carefully. Ive just had a quick look and i can already see that the module is not finished yet and is still in test phase. and that the install method needs to be rerun on every boot.
Long story short wifi hotspot is not functional for consumer use just yet, only really for developers and beta testers. Thats what i take from it anyway.
Unfortunately, even if the kernel has the function built-in, the ROM creator would still have to update to use it.
thanks anyway ,evilbarcode ! you help to understand the regulation in XDA . you are so nice and patient to help me for my problems
Have a nice day ,Bro
So I'm getting my Amaze tomorrow =) and want to mod it as soon as i turn it on =)
I prob want to get this in:
Amazing QuikSense v2.1.2
Rooted
Faux123 HTC Stock v0.0.7 ( can only find the link for 0.0.6 =( share if u have it)
My question is in which order should i do this??
is this correct:
1. Root it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1310115)
2. Install Amazing Quick Sense (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1322474)
2.1 Install FAux123 Kernel (using the tool inside the folder) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359951) (Step 5 from under)
For step 2 xboarder says:
1. Boot into recovery
2. Backup
3. boot in recovery -> delete date/ factory settings
4. Flash ROM
5. Flash kernel if needed
6. Boot phone and setup
How do i get recovery is he talking about clockwork mod? or his own tool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414274)
also anything else i should look into?

The fact that Miguel did some research and spelled out his interpretation of how to flash a custom ron/kernel shows. Far more effort than the typical noob. I appreciate those that do some reading and ask for validation of the process.

remember unlock bootloader>root>flash cwm (x's version in development section)> flash rom/kernel you're good to go
I thought I answered this for you by PM???
I don't understand why even after receiving my answer you felt it necessary to post this.
Other than the rom it doesn't actually matter what order you install these.
In fact, you can do this in ANY order because what you are wanting to do consists of THREE DIFFERENT partitions.
Boot
Recovery
System
Boot is the kernel
Recovery is recovery
System is rom.
Dude just do it and learn something for yourself instead of asking for permission first. Really you'll be fine. And if your not... it's a learning experience.
Really, I take back my prior post. Bad form OP.

Problem?
A phone not booting is a problem.
A phone freezing at the boot screen is a problem.
A phone bootlooping is a problem.
A phone not able to dial 9-1-1 is a problem.
A phone that doesn't have a touch screen is a problem.
A phone that never has signal is a problem.
Those are good examples of problems.
What problem did you have again?
I'll be honest with you. I'm a bit irritated by this thread. You sent me a PM to which I replied.
At 0032 hours I received your PM.
At 0047 you posted this thread (only fifteen minutes later).
At 0137 hours I replied to your PM not knowing you already posted this thread.
So here's the deal. Don't PM me again for your "problems" because you can clearly get your answers like everyone. You just wasted my time. You would be irritated too if it happened to you. Only in my case I get flooded by messages with people that have real "problems" and I'm sorry if I have to prioritize. Clearly yours should have been the lowest of priority. Again... don't PM me anymore.

I'm sure you meant nothing by it but I can understand where he's coming from.
One thing here is just to post and be patient.
I've had someone PM me about an issue with their phone and then I spent 10 minutes looking up information to resolve it for them just to hop on the General Forum to see they had started a thread about it too.
So why then did they waste my time PMing me if they were just going to start a thread?
So my suggestion is just pick one route next time.
PM and wait, or open a thread and wait.
And BY THE WAY...search first before anything else.
And try looking for keywords related to your problem as opposed to typing in your exact question and then saying you couldn't find anything using search.
I've seen a lot of questions get repeated because they didn't realize their question was already asked simply because they worded it differently. (I've done this too.)
Anyways good luck.

Look man, I'm over it already. Just please realize how frustrating it is for me.
I have 1,683 messages in my inbox. Do you know how many I get on a daily basis? Dozens! I try to respond to them as quickly and promptly as possible. But I am not some tech support employee that is required to answer any of them. I don't need to answer them. But I do anyway because I like to help. But when I saw this thread it did upset me... obviously. Would you blame me for my reaction? Perhaps I did over-react and for that I apologize. You obviously got your answer so that's all that counts.
Ok i rooted my phone and unlocked it as well. I rooted only for the purpose of only getting a .08 to .3 KBps data speed in an area the is supposed to have been overhauled. I have had the damn phone replaced three times with no results. I have replaced the modem to the best one which still only gives me at best 1.66MBps. Well now when I use the hotspot.......only computer can connect!!!!! NONE OF MY OTHER 12 COMPUTERS CAN CONNECT AT ALL.....AND WHEN IT DOES IT DOES NOT GET AN IP ADDRESS AND WHEN I TRY TO TURN OFF THE HOTSPOT AND BACK ON I GET AN ERROR!!!!! I go into airplane mode and and then turn it off and I am able to connect but only this one damn computer!!!!! how in the hell can I fix this!!!!! PS. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO SEARCH FOR THIS PROBLEM....BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY DONE THIS AND I HAVE COME UP WITH NOTHING BUT BULL****!!!! I WANT HONEST ANSWERS TO THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH!!

See this is what I am talking about.....I spent 5 months on the phone with AT&T and get nowhere.......been searching this site as well with no luck and every post I see is always somebody saying something rude like "REALLY????" That is not help but just plain sarcastic BS that does not help fix the problem!!! All I want is a simple answer on how to fix this problem not "REALLY?"

I'd hardly call what you posted detailed.
If you have CWM then you were already rooted. What method did you use to install CWM? What "best" modem did you install? What ROM are you using? What method did you use to unlock? Where did you look? What searches have you done? I can go on an on with the questions......
I think it best to speak in a softer/nicer tone especially when asking for help. There are a lot of people here that are more than willing to help those that have a genuine interest in learning.

I don't know an answer to your question.
I have rarely seen someone come into this forum with the attitude you are showing in a first post. It'll be interesting to see if you get any help.

Is there an all caps autodelete script running on this server? If not then we need one. When I see all caps I seem to fly into an insane rage for some reason. A character defect of mine doubtless...

All I know is I have been searching and searching on this site for over a week and there is no solution to my problem. And every post I see has pages of posts saying you did not say much or search these forums before you post!!!!!! I DID SEARCH!!!!!! AND I WANTED TO STATE RIGHT OFF.......THAT YOU SHOULD SEARCH!!!!!!! I DID THAT!!!!! I do not know what more you want me to explain!!!!
1. Rooted my phone using ODIN with the ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3
2. Installed Superuser-3.0.7
3. Unlocked my phone with Galaxy S Unlock", the author is "Helroz"
4. After this I get the triangle and Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 on the splash screen.
5. Tried every modem and the best one seems to UCLC2 Modem.
6. After I did all this one one computer can hookup to my hotspot.
7. When a second computer tries to hookup.....First computer losses connection and second one never connects to get an IP address.
8. When you turn off the Hotspot it give you a message "ERROR"
9. In order to get reconnected I have to turn on airplane modes and then off and then the first computer can connect again.
I am just sooooo upset with this ****!!!!! Been fighting AT&T for 5 months with no results. And even with all the modems I have tried I get no more speed then at most times of .3 to .7kbps!!! I can't even download all the original files to restore completely to stock because I am getting about an 80% packet loss!!!!! And the download always fails anywhere from 50 to 70% I am so frustrated with this I am about to take a sledge hammer to this phone and tell AT&T to stick their network where the sun don't shine!!!

K, i'm going to bite my tongue for a bit and try to help you. But you really are sounding like a demanding vulgar little child. So please tone it down and sound grateful so some smarter people might be tempted to help you solve your issue.
What ROM are you using? What security protocol are you using? I'm going to assume you're using Windows 7 on all your machines.... What are you setting as your network location? Home? Work? Public?
Have you already tried the basics.... wiping cache, wiping davlik, fix permission? Have you done a factory reset?

Just to start out.......I am not a demanding vulgar little child..........STOP WITH THE BS........I Happen to be a CCDE (Cisco Certified Design Expert) I know what I am doing and have the basic knowledge of phones!!!! I did all the basic stuff. I am very tired I have been dealing AT&T for months, I have been on this forum for days!!!! And I work 16 to 18 hours a day!!!!! And all I want is to be able to connect more then one computer on my hotspot....THAT IS ALL!!!! I AM COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM!!!!! And I may have sounded vulgar starting this post.....but I want to lay the thread out properly by saying........I am not a noobie, I don't want post saying did you search......did you do the basics.....I already did that!!!!!
Now for the questions to your answer.....I have not changed the rom....it is the stock rom.
2. I turned off all security at this point to make sure that was not the problem.
3. All my computers are running xp as I would never put windows 7 on my machine.
And as for network location I have know idea what you mean by that.......as I have changed NOTHING except installed CWM and the unlock program. I also flashed the phone with all the modems to see what gave me the best speed which was the UCLC2.
4. I restored the efs folder and relocked the phone. Still have the same problem.
5. I just flashed the kernel back to stock and it is still doing the same problem!!
*poppin some extra buttery Orville Redenbacher*
In all seriousness, you gave more detail in the second post than the first. Even though you said you had already started "everything necessary"...
Clay
PS - you managed to anger one of the most helpful people on this forum: creepy. You are soon to anger brokkanik and he's in that same category. Im pretty sure you need to reevaluate your approach or you will receive no help whatsoever. I hope you get this problem resolved soon.

Can I have some? This looks like an entertaining show. I'm somewhat flabbergasted at the balderdash being spewed.
**looks up at the site name**
nope, not the AT&T HELP DESK, nor is it the XDA-HELPDESK....
where are you paying for OUR services that gives you the right to yell at everyone?
you are doing absolutely no good for your case here.

And? So you're good at taking tests. Does that garner you a certain level of respect? My 9yr old can set up a network. I could care less if you're exhausted in dealing with this issue. You're demanding answers. You're not asking for help. If you already claim to know the tone of this forum why all the high and mighty "oh look at me! I'm a CCDE. I know how to configure IP's better than anyone that didn't take the test to become a CCDE. Bow down, answer my questions or GTFO!"?
Now for the questions to your answer.....I have not changed the rom....it is the stock rom.

THANKS ALL YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!! JUST WHAT I THOUGHT A BUNCH OF PEOPLE OF HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO BUT....BE THE PROBLEM!!!! I TOLD YOU ALL I AM NOT A NOOBIE.....AND NOT ONE OF YOU SAID, "HEY I HAD THAT PROBLEM AND THIS IS WHAT I DID TO FIX IT" THAT IS EXCEPT THE ONE PERSON WHO UNDERSTOOD WHAT A WAS ASKING!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! AND IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. AS FOR ALL YOU OTHER PEOPLE WHO DID EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED YOU TO NOT DO......... *&^$% OFF!!! OH AND A CCDE DOES NOT CONFIGURE JUST IP ADDRESSES.....I DESIGN WHOLE COMPLETE VoIP NETWORKS!!! oh and close this thread moderator!!
Again thank for the person who pm'd me and was a part of the solution instead of the other ones who had nothing to say but flame!!
dude. get the fkn chip off your shoulder.
you came in here yelling at people, nay, DEMANDING people help you, screaming at everyone even in your first post...
christ, man, what did you expect to get met with? champagne and crumpets?
grow up and learn how to be RESPECTFUL when asking VOLUNTEERS for help....just stop yelling at everyone and you will go a hell of a lot further and people wont troll your posts....
I'm logging in to the site via chrome just so I can report this thread.
Dude, do you have PE problems? Is that the reason for your need to type in caps? To tell people you are a "hot shot"¿ I don't care that you set up voip networks. I care that you are an asshole who types in caps, demands things like a 5yr old and throws around certificate like it's something we should all bow down to. Get over yourself. You may know a ton about networks,I may know a ton about micro architecture (I don't), but that means NOTHING here. Ask and you shall receive. Demand and you shall be flamed.
Anyway, awaiting penalties for this post and grabbing another beer.
Clay

get it right.....i came in here asking for help.........and not hearing people say......like i see on hundreds of threads on here to do a search.......and people should not do this or that.........i explicitly said NOT TO DO THIS!!!!!! I ONLY WANTED SOLUTIONS. AND NOT ONE OF YOU DID THAT!!!! YOU IMMEDIATELY WENT ON YOUR **** ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT DO....THIS IS NOT A HELP DESK.........THAT IS WHY PROBABLY NONE OF YOU WORK FOR A COMPANY LIKE CISCO!!! IF I WAS ON A CISCO FORUM AND SOMEBODY DID WHAT I DID......I OBVIOUSLY WOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED THAT THIS PERSON IS FRUSTRATED EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER AVENUES AND NEED HELP.
I SURE AS HELL WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON MY HIGH SENIOR MEMBERS HORSE AND YOU ARE RUDE, YOU ARE VULGAR!!! iI WOULD HAVE SAID, "HOW CAN I HELP YOU AND SINCE YOU SAID, "DON'T ASK ME IF A SEARCHED THE FORUMS.....OR DID THE BASIC STUFF." I WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY SAID TO THE TECHNICAL STUFF NOT WHAT ANY OF YOU PEOPLE DID YOU JUST WENT STR8 TO COMPLAINING, WHINING, *****ING AND NOT ONE SINGLE ONE OF YOU DOVE IN AND WENT STR8 TO THE PROBLEM. SO YOU TELL ME WHO IS ON THEIR HIGH EFING HORSES??????
THIS IS WHY THERE ARE THREADS WITH 20, 30, 500 PAGES OF REPLIES!!!!! BECAUSE YOU ARE WORRIED TO THINK YOU ARE MOSTLY ALL KINGS AND RULERS OF THE THRONE!!!! GET OF YOUR PEDESTAL!!!!
NONE OF THIS CRAP HAPPENS ON CISCO'S FORUMS BECAUSE WE ARE ABOUT THE SOLUTION AND NOT ABOUT GIVING A RESPONSE THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO ABOUT THE SOLUTION!!!
SO SAY WHAT YOU WANT.........BUT THIS THREAD PROVES THAT!!!!!! MOST OF YOU THINK YOU ARE BETTER THEN ANYONE ELSE.....YOU ARE NOT!!!
AGAIN THANKS FOR THE PERSON THAT HELPED ME AND EVERYBODY ELSE I WILL NOT DIGNIFY YOUR BS REPLIES WITH ANYMORE REPLIES.
AND AGAIN THANKS..........YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE......IF I NEED ANY OTHER HELP I WILL PM YOU BACK.
