Thanks waveweaver. I've included the information in the first post.

Also included new way to root SGSII I9100G WITHOUT flashing with ODIN. I bet it will also work with I9100.

Lucky you, can you guess mine? With all the trials and errors, its already been 35

Haven't bought USB JIG yet, doesn't think its necessary



Nope, use KIES to upgrade your phone AFTER you have reset the binary count.

I'm thinking of capturing USB signal that KIES send to force our phone into download mode without increasing custom binary count. Anyone got any ideas?

If nothing happens, then your phone is not rooted, nothing changed.

Have you removed the lines that I've mentioned?

Can you print screen the black and white screen?

Use USB JIG to remove it. Please go through some of the posts here, you'll find the answer to the yellow triangle


Probably you would be better off asking the question in the original XDA forum. Read through all the posts, probably someone else might have asked the same question.

Which upgrade? The MyGKernelV1.1.1_CWM5.tar? KIES? ODIN? Which firmware?

Try to remove the one in device manager and reconnect the USB cable

It sounded to me you might need to hard reset your phone. Refer the link below;

Warning: You might loose your apps

Anyone got any better idea?

YAY! found out the problem with the script

I was typing the command line by line, therefore there was time for the device to reboot and reconnect to the adb interface.

What you need to do is to basically add a pause command, "@pause" right after the deleted line. Please refer the first posting for reclarification. This will allow you to give around 20 second time frame for device reconnection.

The first method should now work... If not, please share your output

It seems the tools was having problems with your phone.

1. Have you enabled the USB debugging and Uknown sources?
2. Can you confirm your firmware version?

Nice!!!

Can you guys confirm your firmwares?

Thanks

Try doing what liyan did. Also try using different version of the tool

I don't think so. This method should be somewhat general for froyo and gingerbred, so i think it should work

Until now only 2.3.6 users who reported success, but there's no non 2.3.6 users who failed either...

Refer here

I think you should google how to repair samsung driver installation. If you install KIES, there's a troubleshooting button which will basically repair and reinstall your driver. Maybe that will help

Probably you should try to use other PC first

Hmm... Too bad... you would loose the latest firmware.

If you manage to save your files/data somewhere/somehow, you can always do a Factory Reset to clear up EVERYTHING, then you can dial *2767*3855#. Warning, you'll loose EVERYTHING, including data inside the internal sd.

Okkay, link added.

I've also experienced KIES connection problem which only can be solved after total reset which I've mentioned. As your Physical Device Object names, I cannot find it, I'm in Windows XP... Also, those device numbers are too general, might not be the same with other PC and probably wouldn't be much help.

I believe there are lots of applications on the market that can be used to save your Contacts and SMS into your internal SD. Then, data inside your internal SD can be moved to an external SD card. You can use wifi... but it is a little bit complicated

I've just mentioned it. Please refer to the first post

full rom available. check first post

If you update to 2.3.6, you can use the first method to root.

But, if you are interested in using custom kernel, then you might use MyGKernel, which support CWM and CIFS. Someone was saying that it was updated to 2.3.6, but still the posts showed it is 2.3.5 (DZKI1). You might go here to see how it fares, get advice from there;

Interesting,

People keep saying they have connection problem right after updating the firmware to 2.3.6. And factory format seems the only way to fix it.

Just remember, you can do a factory format by dialing *2767*3855#, but ALL your data will be lost
