Android Gingerbread XXJVO Root

Root XXJVO Android Gingerbread ROM on Galaxy S i9000

MAKE SURE YOUR GALAXY S IS RUNNING XXJVO FIRMWARE (Check this in settings – ‘about phone’)

Download CF-Root kernel. File name – CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVO-v3.2-CWM3RFS.zip
Unzip the above file. You will get a .tar file – “CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVO-v3.2-CWM3RFS.tar”. This file is what you are going to use to gain root access on your XXJVO firmware. We will be flashing this .tar file using ODIN to gain root access and install the ClockworkMod Recovery (as tweaked by Chainfire) alongside.

Download Odin. File name – Odin3 v1.7. Extract the zip file to get Odin3 1.7.exe. Run Odin now by double clicking on the extracted .exe file.
Switch Off your phone. Wait for vibration to confirm complete switch off.
Boot your phone in Download Mode — Press and hold “VolumeDOWN + HOME key + POWER button” together.
Connect your phone to PC now. You’ll notice “Added! !” message in the Odin’s message box.
On Odin, click the “PDA” box and select the .tar file you extracted in step 2 — CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVO-v3.2-CWM3RFS.tar
Do NOT select any “.pit” file in the “PIT” box, and make sure “Repartition” button is NOT checked.
Leave the “Auto Reboot” and “F. Reset Time” buttons checked.
Double check Steps 7, 8 & 9.(Check the screenshot at the top, your Odin’ screen should look like this only, except for the file name).
Click the Start button on Odin to begin installing the CF Root kernel.
After the CF Root is installed, phone will restart.
Your phone is rooted now.
