My friend has a vibrant and he wants it rooted. I have a Droid X and its rooted using z4root. Can I root his phone using z4root. I know tha Galaxy S devices are compatible with z4root but I was wondering if it was safe since he has the OTA 2.2 update from T-Mobile/Samsung. Which took for ever to get on his phone.
Thanks
Since he has the official 2.2, there is a way to root but it would have been easier from 2.1. You can search the forums for the instructions, or you can do what I have done for a couple of people, and odin back to ji6 (2.1). And then use one click root in the dev section.All of that really only takes about 20 minutes. Just my opinion.
Odin to stock, Flash Ji6 Update to 2.2 and root with latest oneclick, get all this in the sitckies
So I can't use z4root even though its for galaxy s devices and 2.2 devices

No that probably you can but I don not know if they have updated for the 2.2 and why take the risk, Rooting is rooting doesn't matter which method you use......so it is prudent to use one that is safe and known to work.
No, I don't think that z4root will work in the official 2.2
ota 2.2? maybe you meant kies..
I meant kies. Which was a,huge pain.,
