Root Samsung Galaxy S With Android 2.2 Froyo [How To]

To install many advanced apps that increases the usability of the device rooting is necessary.Rooting also allows you to install the One Click Lag Fix app that removes even the slightest lags you might encounter while using a Galaxy S, making it the fastest Android phone out there. It scores a staggering 2100-2300 points in Quadrant benchmark when running the official Android 2.1 build with LagFix installed.

Z4Root is a free android app that gives one-click rooting. We will now show you how to do rooting on Samsung Galaxy S with android 2.2 Froyo.

Follow these instructions:

1.Download and install “Z4root” by RyanZA. You can find it in Market or use QR code to scan and download the free app.

2.Reboot your android device.

3.Launch Z4root app.

4.Z4 Root gives you two options of rooting. Tap on “Permanent Root”.

5.The app will automatically do all the hard work of finding the exploit and giving you root access. During the process it will also install “Busybox”. If you are unaware of this term, it is a set of UNIX utilities packed into a single small executable file.

6.This will follow with following messages: “Acquiring root shell…” and “ Please wait while root operations complete…”. Don’t do anything at this point.

7.You phone will automatically reboot.

After reboot is complete, you will see a new icon “Superuser” in the screen. This means your device is successfully rooted.

    I backed out after 10 mins and it couldn’t find the exploit in the first section. It vibrated every 30 secs for about 10 mins. It freaked me out so I stopped it and it came back to life as normal. Hesitate to try again after that episode. Unless somebody can tell me how long it should take and if I should try again. I would still love to fix the lag issue.

    Microsoft reckons it’s a security threat – something about allows remote sending of my data to unknown person?

    Hi, I need some help if possible. Want to unsimlock my SGS I9000XXJPP FROYO 2.2. Made wrong manipulation using SGS Unlock which made Froyo change codes in nv_data.bin to blocks of 8 Fs. Otherwise, except for the network access denied (network lock on), everything OK: have the recovery and download combination, superuser and root access, terminal emulator, the local apllications,…Is there any posibility to unsimlock the phone (except from getting the code from Bouygues Telecom, I’m outside France) Thanks a lot.
