Your warranty is void once you root your phone..

I've moved this thread to the Galaxy S - All Things Root subforum.

As a new member, you may not know that we have a sticky thread in this subforum that contains a guide on how to root the Galaxy S.

Default help rooting

I've got a Galaxy S, can't see the game anywhere on the phone or SD card. I've followed the youtube video to root. The menu comes up but when I try to update my phone I get an error "E:signature verification failed". Can I confirm that I boot up my phone, when I get the menu I pick "apply update from sd card" Do I then choose update.zip? Please help.

What exactly are you trying to do? Install a custom Rom?
If this is the case you must download a custom Rom and copy it in the root of your sd card. Then you must choose "install from sd card".

I found this tool on Youtube yesterday after numerous attempts and fails with various methods..



First attempt failed...so ran the tool again and it rebooted with Superuser and root permissions.

Meant to work with any gingerbread device.
