What about for those non-root devices?

I'm afraid you have to root your phone first in order to use Mobile Odin. Good thing is, when new stock firmware comes you can straight away flash it without worry of loosing root or waiting somebody to built a new insecure kernel.

Just to add this information, i tried on a windows 7/32 computer, still the same, it freeze on sending 189 zerglings.
Although i have noticed something slightly different, if i try a second time without restarting anything, it say something about blue flames ...
But whatever, when phone is frozen, nothing can make it reboot except a manual reboot.

The last information from the chinese forum, is the same random result, with apparently more luck on customed carrier firmware than stock firmware, since mine is stock ...
The chinese MIUI apparently say they currently have no dev working on a gingerbread rom for I9100G. They are all working on ICS.
With the deployment of I9100g being quite large in Asia, i wouldn't worry too about a good ICS custom rom, bad news is we have to wait at least 2 or 3 months before such a rom is released, since they are talking about december for existing supported devices. From what i read, i9100g is the model being launched in Malaysia, China, Vietnam, Malaysia, and apparently Europe is going to receive it as well in a few countries.

So unless the fact that you are cut from google services (which is my case), i don't think it's a good idea to rush on rooting device using somewhat experimental dangerous flashing method since everything will be wiped out anyway when ICS custom roms are released.
For my part, i own a stock i9100G running ZCKI1 kernel through official Kies updates, and still able to download independent apk files with a small searh on google.
I'm not here to denigrate the already existing custom rom (Juffo's rom), but an unstable custom rom while ICS coming soon seems a bad idea with all the risks being taken right now.
That is why i was trying the single root, which really doesn't work but freeze the phone, and i doubt Doomlord is working on this particular problem right now with all the changes happening (i might be wrong but well ...).

That's only my 2 cents, but I9100g is indeed a great phone, on some points better than I9100, some benchmark have been published that proves it, fact is that phone is a few months old, but wasn't really officially announced by Samsung, and that is the main reason why we don't have much support for it. And when earlier i refered to tunisian's problems with that phone is Samsung did sell it as an I9100, with all the complaints they have about that, they might be forced to open slightly things to make things easier for the rest of us. That's what i'm hoping.
Been looking for a good tunisian forum to try to see what devs were doing, but failed in my research, if somebody has better knowledge than that on this case, would be nice to share.

Hnmmm I using juffo for some time now. Didn't encounter any bugs. Maybe I need to test it out more thoroughly.

Is there anyone can install windows phone 7 on
our i9100g???

Tried the latest technique. Works like a charm.

I really hope you are referring to the "windows 7 launcher" for Android. and not the OS.

Why in the world would you buy an android and then want to install wm7? Get a Nokia.

You can get some 'taste' of Winmo 7 by using launcher and Winmo 7 theme.

why would you wan to install winmo on android device?

i just came over from winmo6.5 to android
winmo is just a nightmare for me

does anyone know if making a custom rom orginally made for I9100 work on I9100G is hard and takes a lot of time or is it easy if you copy some files from stock rom or juffo's rom or something similar ?

i have 0% experience so i'm just asking, since it appears that nobody pays attention to the I9100G at all, so maybe we have to find some other ways by ourselves lol

if there's any developer reading this or if you know a rom developer would you tell him to give it a shot ? the I9100G is not much weaker than the I9100 maybe just 10% slower, so it's really a shame not to enjoy modding it when much much slower and weaker android phones have dozens of roms and kernels!

Better don't try to flash any custom roms that meant to non-G version into your phone as you'll end up softbicked it.
- Nearly all reputable rom builder use non-G version as the phone comes earlier than the G version. Most of this rom builder buy the phone themself for their daily usage and for rom building., so it would be a waste for them to buy again a new phone (G version) just for the sake of making rom for others.
- If all or most of ordinary G version user can each donate a little sums of money., collectively it will be enough to buy one or two phones then donate the phone to one or two reputable and active roms builder. This way you can get more and continuous custom roms.
:::my two cents:::

Many thank you to I19100 especially and the other forumer for the input..Since yesterday I followed few website on how to root my hp.
First end up with soft brick error..
Finally after read over this thread I managed to root without any problem..(Even took 2 days to succeed)

Thank you again...

Well, i tried everything i could for the doomlord method, and a lot of people with that phone in China seems to fail to root it with that method too, creezalird, maybe we could try to see if we can help Doomlord debugging this particular issue ? I don't know how to obtain a detailed logg of what's happening in that exploit, but i'm pretty sure that if we can obtain those logs maybe doomlord would be able to find a solution relatively fast ...

For now i give up, if there is the need of testers to get logs, i'm present.

hi, premk71, can you explain how you install the transparent lockscreen which attached at juffo rom?

Thank you bro I9000G for the info on how to root. When I did it first, I ran the v3 script stock but there were errors, then I modded it as per your first post and voila.

A little disappointed to know about the differences between 9000 vs G, and that most of the nice ROMs/kernels are based on non-G, although the G's are starting to trickle in now.

Anyway, the only reason I rooted was so I could hack the Defender game (hehehe).

Looking forward to a modded kernel which would allow voltage/speed mods.

Thanks again!

Simple.

1.copy the framework Res file to ur SD card. Doesn't matter internal or external. Its temporary location
2.install root explorer .mount your system as r/w (see top of the root explorer. Got option for r/w or r/o)
3.using root explorer copy the file from above to /system/framework folder
4.there is already a similar file at that folder so you will be prompted to overwrite .click yes.
5.you will get some error that some application like market crashed. Just ignore and keep press your power button to reboot.
6.done

Try it. Its cool

ur using method 1 or method 2 technique?
im already on KJ2. should i jst flash the rooted kernel with odin or downgrade full firmware n flash all back? all my apps will loose?
