Help How to Root Galaxy S Vibrant GT-i9000m Bell

[Moose96]

I was wondering how to root the Galaxy S VIbrant GT-i9000m with Bell.

I looked around but I couldn't find a root procedure specifically for my phone; some were for T-Mobiles, or another version of Android. I was to make sure it works fine for my phone.

Model Number: GT-i9000M
Firmware version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: I9000UGKG3
Kernel Version: 2.6.25.7-I9000UGKG3

Build number: GINGERBREAD.GKG3

Thanks for all the help!

hahah No big deal buddy, Its an easy fix. Go here and download a FW. Samsung I9000 Galaxy S Firmwares.
Extract it to your desktop. Go here and download odin MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Once you have them both open odin on your computer. Add the .512 pit you downloaded and tick re-partion. then add your PDA,PHONE and CSC. Once they are all added put your phone into download mode and plug it in. A bot light light up yellow with "COM" in it, then just click start and let odin work its magic, Ill stay on here until you do it and i can walk you through it if you want

Try SuperOneClick

Indeed. I've used SuperOneClick on multiple phones and it's literally a super one click and it's done.

I have tried super one click and it hasnt worked, i either brick my phone and have to go back to 2.3.3 or nothing at all happens. i have flashed back to 2.3.3 no samsung kies updates
