Method 2c is what you are looking for. By the way, this is a sticky in the general forum.
1. Rooting is not firmware dependent, the method to root is almost the same across firmware
2. Installing games does not require rooting.
Thank and do you think this video here is besically the same things that ill be doing?

Baseband Version: T959UVJI6
Kernel version: 2.3.29
Build Number ECLAIR.UVJI6
What I want to do is update this phone to the most recent Jelly Bean. I dont want spend 600 on a new phone when all I want is the phone be updated. Iv tried searching forums that give me step by step but all the Firmware versions are more updated and doesn't work for my phone. I actually got stuck with downloading Kies Mini and trying to update my phone but the software keeps telling me that I wont allow it ....... Can someone please help me? Im willing to learn and listen.
Tell me the first step and what needs to be downloaded. Please keep in mind I have a MacBook Pro if that matters. Thank you so much in advance.
look forward to the feed backs
Hi. You seem to be new at this (as me). Well first of all, this forum is not for your phone, this is for SGH-T959v, not Vibrant. Then, really youve searched?, because I think it was not enough. Start finding the correct phone forum, then use the search bar. Start searching how to flash a phone, then see if theres a Jelly Bean ROM for your phone, if you find it, flash it . Its not hard to do, but you have to read, a lot!, because one simple mistake can kill your phone, but you dont have to be worried if you read enough .
Use this link in your search, it will help you a lot

Good luck man!
Here is the link to the correct forum for your vibrant.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=708
Ill trade you this sgs 4g for your vibrant any day lol....the vibrant was my original but i broke it and had to settle for this thing.
Have fun with it and enjoy it.....the potential is limitless with the vibrant.
Moved to Vibrant Q&A.
@OP Make sure you read a bit more or your next thread will be, "Help, I think I bricked my phone"
I have an S3 I9300 which im trying to root. But it just keeps getting bricked.
I have used CF-Root for the international version but im not sure what the problem is anymore.
I am fairly new to android development so I apologies if I missed a thread with a similar topic.
Can someone please help me??
Note: I have searched this forum and the threads giving solutions dont work for me! I have the stock ROM so I just keep bricking and unbricking it all day long trying different things.
It worked now.! Can an admin please delete this post?
Sorry to bother ya'll
