After 42 attempts, my  stock ROM / Kernel 2.3.6 is rooted with Doomlord v3. Finally.

I always got mount: permission denied.

I have tried reformat phone. Downgrade with ODIN to 2.3.5 and try, upgrade back to 2.3.6 and try. Follow all the tips on Kies uninstall , reinstall, kill processes at task manager,  tried on 2 diff laptops, XP and Win7 ult 32 bit., Different USB ports, tried Doomlord V1,V2,V3, with and without the pause, extra pause, tried superoneclick,  Tried praying.

I am not sure why, dont kick me, This time the thing that "probably" did it is

a) Only left Kies with adb driver in my C.Uninstall myphoneexplorer, droid explorer, etc. My android SDK is in D:

b) After mount permission failed; the command will come out reboot.....and i had to wait for a long time for the ALL Done to appear. Normally I would yank out the phone and restart manually.Even if I switch it off, it will restart by itself.

c) This time, when mount: Permission Denied came on, and reboot statement at the end, I left the phone attached to USB and was doing my work. And I saw after ~ 10 mins phone restart by itself.

d) I didnt go into task manager to kill ADB.exe, rather, I just re -ran the batch file with admin rights. And bingo it worked.

So if u got chronic case like me, try that. If mount permission denied comes up. Let the command come on, All Done, phone reboot by itself and run again without killing ADB.
Never give up.Never.

not up to 42 but maybe around 12 T_T and still without success and the same permission denied problem, tried ur methode but even after 30min my phone didnt reboot itself...T_T

so far there is no definitive solution for the permission denied problem because i also have that and been searching around, reading every post, testing every suggested solutions, but still with no luck.

currently waiting for someone to come up with perfect solution

after some reading around, it is possible something like this :

1) for those already rooted with 1st method (doomlord), can u install the ktool from market and dump the kernel as zImage

2) as i understand, this will be like the stock kernel for 2.3.6

3) upload the kernel for further usage

if i am mistaken, do tell me smile.gif

ps : still cant root my device with 1st method

it seems like beside 2.3.6, there is another factor why some of us cant use the doomlord method (every version). i read somewhere, maybe this bug has been patched by Google and depends on when the 2.3.6 firmware is compiled, maybe because some of us just recently updated to 2.3.6, the most recent build is already patched, it is just a BIG maybe..huhu

Can any help, after i downloaded Kies 2.0 when i tried to install it keeps asking me to connect to internet even though I'm connected to internet via Maxis BB ody. Can any help?

Thx

i'm not sure, but guessing here, how large the installer file for that kies 2.0, if it is kind of small like few MB only, maybe that is an online installer which required u online during installation

if the size around 86MB, then it should be installing just file without internet connection

How much for the JIG ? need to insert every time when restart the phone?  ohmy.gif

jig i bought for rm15 only.
not needed everytime, just needed when u want to reset binary counter (old bootloader only) or sometimes when u got hang/crash, cant get into download/recovery mode. but these are based on my readings only, haven't use it myself tongue.gif

try donlod sdk from this page http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
donlod android-sdk_r15-windows.zip
dan install dlm pc..then u try root pakai v3...

SDK already installed since a year ago, so i think, it will no influence the process right?
beside ADB also called from the folder and ADB driver also comes together from KIES installation if i am not mistaken.

i think people those succeed were using the flashing thru odin upgrade instead of thru KIES. maybe the provided firmware 2.3.6 is compiled before any new patch from Google.

one question, i just downloaded the 2.3.6 firmware from the link provided on the first page. it is a zip file consists 2 files inside :
- I9100GDZKJ2_I9100GDZKJ2_I9100GOLCKJ2_HOME.tar.md5
- SS_DL.dll

i'm confused about the "SS_DL.dll", should i flash as one zip file or just the md5 file? thanks

i think the "universal androot" will not work on our device as this method is already outdated and even at that time, it still wont support our device

only either doomlord(zergrush) , superoneclick(zergrush) or rooted kernel can accomplish rooting in our device for this moment

why the lose of apps? only flashing kernels, so other apps should be untouched. only the binary counter and yellow triangle will appear
