Just Flash back to 2.1 vis Flashtool, root it, install xrecovery and follow Wolfbreaks instructions to get a working 2.3.3 rooted ROM.
Dude it's already rooted. There are rooted roms available. You should be dreaming lol

Not possible. If you want root you have to reflash atm.

I'm still waiting for an updated tool to root this; with 2.1 I've had serious issues with X10i software on my X10a hardware and I'm not wasting my time with X10i this time.
That means when X10a is available, I need to root it. So far, only X10i is available pre-rooted.
I wouldnt of thought it will be too long till one of the devs work it out, im not sure how the pre-rooted ones work, and is a little more faffing around that id like at the moment, plus im quite happy with the bog standard 2.3.3, just want to restore my apps and stuff really
I don't think devs would root it, no point. Pre rooted roms work great.

well not everyone wants a generic rom, or one from another region, some people prefer certain roms, such as their operator roms and for people in the US some of them have problems with the X10i roms, and as such are stuck with the 10a roms or something like that, so thats where the seperate root comes into its own, as people can choose when they want to root.

Look, It's possible to get a stock pre-rooted 2.3 onto our phones so looking for a way to directly root 2.3.3+ is a waist of time for our devices. You won't find any devs trying to root 2.3.3+ unless they are trying to gain root access on a device that can't be downgraded to an older version that there is a known rooting exploit for.

Best of luck finding an exploit!!!
rageagainstthecage doesnt work
psneuter doesnt work
gingerbreak doesnt work
If u are lucky in few months MAY BE a new exploit might be discovered...
As for "operator customizations" u can flash ur regions fw then take a system dump and keep adding operator customized files on the prerooted roms...
P.S.: why is this question thread posted in dev section?

I'm an X10a owner currently running Wolf's X10i ROM. I'm a Roger's customer to boot. There isn't a single thing wrong with running the X10i firmware. Personally I've never ever experienced issues with anything X10i related. Give it a shot! My phone is ridiculously fast and doesn't have a single issue. The battery life alone is worth the jump. I've been on my phone all day reapplying settings/apps/etc and I just now hit under 50% battery. That's over 10 hours of consistent use.

Maybe the problem wasn't his answer, it was your question?
You asked how long it would take for 2.3.3 to be rooted. As he responded, it already is. Looking at the first page in this section of the forums shows that very clearly as there are numerous ROM postings that clearly state "Rooted".
Perhaps a better question would have been "How long do you think until we have a way to root without having to flash a pre-rooted ROM?"

fine i get it i will change my question. then
Good Morning everyone (or afternoon or night)!
Yesterday i flashed CM7 for the first time ever (Never flashed nothing before, except TWRP which i did it like 2 days ago.). Flashed it through TWRP Recovery and had a problem but solved it (froze on CM7 Logo). But this morning i noticed i had another problem, no GSM! When i flashed it and booted into system i found it wierd that it didnt ask me for my PIN but i was waaaaay to sleepy to think about it. But thats not all, as I found that i didnt had GSM, I also noticed that i didnt have my SIM contacts listed.
So if any of you could help me with this i would really appreciate it, as i really need my GSM working!
Any kind of help is welcome! Even if it means Flashing another ROM. Just really need my GSM working for now!
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354 <-- Where i downloaded CM7
- Before CM7 i had the 2.3.3 official update
PS: Yesterday when i had that freezing problem at CM7 Logo i flashed the patch mik mentioned on the FAQ's (see "Q: I flashed rom and GSM don't works. What's to do?"). It says that would fix that freezing problem and also would fix the no GSM problem but it didnt!
Thank you all in advance for all the help you might give!

You can restore something only if you backed it up. So if you made a backup of your old ROM go into recovery and hit restore. If not either flash a .zip ROM or use KDZ.
Good and bad news guys! i restored my 2.3.3 stock ROM and managed to get GSM again.(had to downgrade the baseband for 2.3.3 stock), that is the good thing!
The bad thing(not that bad i think i can manage to get it ) is that i wanted to flash a custom ROM but im not sure if i should do it because i thought CM7 was one of the best ROM's to flash and i was amazed by it at first! But that GSM thingy got me a bit mad and a bit insecure about doing it again. I wouldnt get mad and would have kept the ROM if i had solved the GSM problem but i didnt!
Any suggestions of what i should do? Any ROM's suggestions? (preferably with that awesomeee CRT off animation [yeah every one loves it!])
Ill wait for your replies! thank you very much for everything you done to help!

If u want to have CM7 by Mik you have to downgrade your baseband. Short way is using KDZ to flash old version of firmaware (v10a or similiar), then ROOT, install custom recovery and then flash CM7.
Well the only experience i have at rooting was by rooting my p500 with 2.3.3 official with superoneclick! I dont really know how to downgrade the firmware and root it on froyo! But if anyone could provide the way to do that i would really appreciate it!
Btw im sry if im asking too much, but i prefer the opinion and help of a more experienced person than just me finding something and boom! Bricked! But i also search even if i ask you guys something!

Read the entire guide, step by step!!!... Anyway it is pretty straightforward
BTW, remember to first install lg drivers on your pc... connect the phone via usb and disable LGE Virtual Modem drivers from device manager on windows,, --> this is extremely important to succeed!
My phone is ok again TakamineSubasa! i just needed an opinion on which ROM should i flash! I've done that guide and it went well! (for the 2.3.3 version! i think i messed up and used P500-v20G-baseband for CM7 [wrong one] and should have used P500-v10E-baseband). But ofc a stable ROM that doesnt have GSM problems :s
btw i was really disappointed with CM7 (or i just dont know nothing about it!). I used it all day (even though i had GSM) and i had no messaging widget, no market, and other things i dont remenber! If i flash it again is there a way to have those apps and widgets like normal stock ROM has?
Thank you very much for the help!

No market? U forgot a flash gapps. Other Widgets I dun think so.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Yep, as terratrix, you must flash gapps in order to get the market on your phone and install everything you want....
Concerning abt stock widgets, CM7 does not include any stock lg crap... although you can install them later if you want, there are posts on how to install stock **** again but dunno where they are ...
btw, --> here you have the lastest gapps available: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
for your security, flash this zip with Zip Signature Verification on in TWRP, to ensure that everything its going to be perfect
Thank you very much guys! ill probably flash sonygen but not sure yet! Need some opinions! if anyone is willing to give some i would appreciate!
Thanks for all the help!
Sonygen is pretty nice and fast. It's a themed cm7, so if you like the SE style go ahead and flash it.

Awesome news! i decided to flash CM7 again! Did the tutorial terratrix provided right after i flashed it and GSM is working perfectly! (just dont know why i had to import my contacts to the phone! Aparentely CM7 doesnt read contacts that are in the SIM card! No biggie!)
Thank you so much for every help you provided guys!

Nothing works now that I have Gingerbread and I can't find anything TO work.
I am praying to the xda gods for their wisdom and knowledge to help me with this problem! I have been at this since 9AM, it is 2PM. What can I do??
i dont use sgs, but i do know cfroot kernel or any other kernel based on cfroot can help u out.

I'm having the same issues. I have tried SuperOneClick and it stops on step 6.
I'm having the same problem too after updating to 2.3.5. Super one click freezes on step 6.
Same issue with my CSpire SGS running 2.3.5. I do think that speed and battery life are improved over 2.2, but I miss my root.

i think i speak for everyone when i say, dont bother at all.
the ICS only just been realeased in undeveloped form and is dangerous at this moment in time
just wait a month or two then read a few stickies about unlocking your bootloader and flashing roms!
Beware it's too early for daily use!

I would recommend MRom(build on CM7.2) which is pretty decent especially in regard of battery life, until they create a firm version of this ICS leak. It's probably going to be a Jelly Bean release because some guy succeeded to create a JB rom out of this leaked Atrix 4G ICS leak.
Thank you both for your replies
i'm not a complete noobie, i used to have the defy and i was always upgrading to cm10 nightlies

If all you want to do is root you can check out superoneclick root, it did the job for me on the last available GB update released. But remember that you have to have the proper drivers installed and that this does not allow you to flash custom roms, it simply gives you root access.
The drivers can be found here (I think).
superoneclick can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
also make sure to read a bit from that thread.
If you are a n00b don't install THAT rom... it's very unstable..
superoneclick rocks
superoneclick rocks, as does cwm recovery. Install both, and don't look back.
well , i managed to unlock bootloader and install recovery and now i just flashed cm10 by epinter
i love it
Hello, i picked up the s4 yesterday from verizon. Well, stupid me, i updated it right when i got it not knowing that i would not be able to root.
Anyways, i know alot of developers are trying to find a bypass/etc.
Here are the questions i have!
Once they find a bypass and i can root, can i use this recovery?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2281367
If i flash cm10, once i root of course will i have to flash a kernal? If its not required i may want to, And would i flash it before or after i install cm10?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2305263
Kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2319243
Do you think the developers will be able to unlock the stupid bootloader?
And how many numbers on the flash counter will it take to come up with a triangle?
Thank you so much, sorry for all the questions!
Note-i am no noob with flashing/roms etc, i had a droid x2 and flashed every rom out there, samsung is a whole lot different with different kernels, the flash counter, etc!

Do you think the developers will be able to unlock the stupid bootloader?
And how many numbers on the flash counter will it take to come up with a triangle?
Thank you so much, sorry for all the questions!
Note-i am no noob with flashing/roms etc, i had a droid x2 and flashed every rom out there, samsung is a whole lot different with different kernels, the flash counter, etc!

U would be able to use any kernel just as long its for the s4 and for the rom u choose, I have tried just about all of them but always went back to the stock kernel for battery life. I've always flashed the kernel after the rom. As far as recovery I prefer twrp but when I used any aokp or aosp I used cwm. Really shouldn't make much difference. Hope I've helped u some.
Thanks

Nothing yet, I updated my new 32 gig s4 without knowing, once I found out I called Verizon and told them I was having data issues and they send me out another which will be activated and then pulling sim, rooting, and flashing. Hopefully they all haven't been updated.
