I tried with superuser app, but result is failed on KI1, and still no kies update on the kernel ... So i'll just wait i guess ...
Oh i did not mentionned, but i modified the script slightly to make it run from a usb key, i'll try from drive C ...
Running from c doesn't change anything sad.gif

hurm, sorry it didnt worked for u, i think i will try reflash back and fully clean restore and try re-root again.
right now i am dumping the system and hoping chainfire will make mobile odin compatible for our device.

after install superuser, try run the app and try update the binary from within the app, it will say something like currenty binary is "legacy". but dont do the update. close the app and ran the script.

Finally, have my "G" unit rooted, Yes! However, have some experience to share here:

After fist attempt, as I mention in #665, a lot of "failed", "unable" etc. I tried waveweaver suggestion, install Superuser, success! Strange. Then I install busybox, NO, cannot, bcos it stated no root. More Strange!

Then I re-do the rooting again using version 2, wow, everything goes well without all those "failed, 'unable" messgae, it even rebooting my unit after I hit "any key to continue" which did not happen during the first attempt. Then all busybox, re-boot apk all worked! Proven it is finally rooted.

YUP I have similiar experience have superuser installed n busybox installed halfway! Then run version 2 with time out increased to 10min n kill adb n kies! WALA!






Yup

Umm no it's not. Unless by "explore the fon" you meant running 1 instance of a mobile browser (non stock ones) w/ above 5 tabs loaded. Try combo'ing default power mgmt w/ JuiceDefender app. Works well for me. *shrugs*

Power saving mode via Settings + JuiceDefender on "Aggressive" profile. Though I highly suspect that it's Jd doing the most work.

Other experienced folks pls correct me if wrong, i think when u set ur phone to 1.2Ghz thru setcpu, its doesnt mean it need to be running at that speed. Its based on ur usage I suppose, only when ur phone running demands its, the cpu scales upwards, otherwise most times its running at 300Mhz.

I use setcpu too, go under Info -> time in state and u can see what speeds ur cpu runs most of the time. I suppose if it runs at 1.2Ghz all the time, battery will be a goner.

I use Titanium backup to freeze bloatware , autostarts to manage what starts when, BetterBatteryStats to troubleshoot for wakelocks and remove more bloat or juice suckers and use Juicedefender+set cpu using settings suggested by lennyUK ( chap from xda) and with moderate usage I can squeeze more than a day. The best I have got with moderate usage - some songs, some browsing, facebook and chat, some video, youtube, many text messaging, a few calls is about 32 hours. But most days its 21-24 hours on full charge --- > BTW this to ALSO answer the other thread about battery drop 1% every 4 mins thingie.

It can root. Once u flash , the kernel only becomes myGkernel . Its compatible with 2.3.6. Of course u going to see Yellow Triangle, which u can live with or go get a USB Jig.

i am satisfied and i am rooted wink.gif
currently learning to deploy my own custom rom.

btw, 1.2ghz when charging and 1ghz when not charging, that is why samsung names the kernel profile as "hotplug".

so far i am satisfied with this profile, even i underclock it to 600mhz or 800mhz, much better for my battery smile.gif)

It's my first android phone, i switched to this phone after 3 years spent on iphone 3g. I am in China, and being cut from all google services is really annoying. My G only have the possibilities for chinese accounts, since i'm not chinese, this is rather hard for me, my only option is a clean root to enable android market, then install all google services, usage of a vpn required for that...
Despite this huge lack, i can find apk easily and install apps without troubles. This phone is really powerfull. I'm not looking for a custom rom, samsung touchwiz is really comfortable and easy to use. All i want is to use google services, but that need root, and i can't manage to root it so far :'(
