Mine is rooted. At this point the biggest benefit of rooting is getting rid of the bloatware along with other apps that require root. I do recommend reading the Rootzwiki thread before rooting. I do have the Samsung drivers posted in there somewhere which you'll probably need. If you got any further questions feel free to ask.

yeah, thats what i was rooting for...wife was complaining about the bloat

Hi there.. I tried to root my phone, but cannot..
I got the phone to be detected on the cmd window.
And after that, it says, to flash it using one command. I copy and paste it.
Then then guide says that the phone will reboot with yellow ! triangle symbol.
It doesn't!! It just stays at the same window "Downloading.. Do not turn off target!!"

Can you please help me as to how can I get it flashed so it reboots with ! yellow symbol?

Download and install the drivers with phone unplugged from your PC. Reboot your computer. Then plug your Stratosphere into your PC so it can detect the drivers. Restart the ADB process from the detect point in the steps. You should be able to complete the rooting process from there.

Okay, I downloaded and installed the driver.
And I also flashed the phone.
The phone rebooted..

I turned on the USB debugging. And it is currently on!

BUT, the step after turning on debugging, i.e. Now, in the command window, make sure your phone can be seen..

I am not able to see that device. I am not sure how to do these steps.. Can you please help?
The heimdall folder with the extracted files are on desktop in C drive.

Thanks

Unplug and replug the phone after you turn on USB Debugging. If that doesn't work then reboot your PC again. It took me a few times doing that until finally ADB decided to detect my Stratosphere.

I couldn't change the chmod permissions after pushing the root files to the proper directories. How do I fix this so I can sim unlock? Please help.

I really need some help now..

Its been like 2 weeks of trying, and didn't success! So, please someone help me now.

I am stuck on the rooting process from step:

"Now, in the command window, make sure your phone can be seen:

F:\Downloads\heimdall-suite-1.3.1-win32>adb devices
List of devices attached
3235A3CA0D8400EC device

Before that step, it says to let the phone restart, makesure USB Debugging is on ---> I DID THAT! And everythings fine until then.
And then I try to do that command in cmd, and it says "The device is not ready".

I am really not sure what to do from this step.. Just a few steps left.
Please help.

Thanks in advance!

Did you install the adb shell and drivers? This is essential to the root procedure. I eventually rooted mine there is an extra space in the tutorial on the last step where you change the chmod permissions.

 

[sagarmody]

I actually did not..
Whats that? And how I do that?

Can you please explain step by step in this forum here so I can try that, and then give it a shot?
This has been getting me all the time!! Soo difficult/confusing.

Thanks
