remove Bloatware?
Ok noob ?
I now have root - how do I remove the bloatware?
Try Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, or Root Uninstaller.

So who wants to write the noob version so Joe Schmoe like me can do it?
Ya, it seems pretty complicated. I've always had someone else root it then I do all the rom business. Is it as hard as it sounds?

It's working baby
Total noob question. I went through all the steps and it looks like it everything went well. But how do I know if i'm rooted? On my nexus one,I get a big unlock symbol, but on the s2 everything boots up the same.
thanks

[HEIMDALL] [One-Click Restore] MA4 4.1.2 Stock Rooted/Unrooted

The point of making this is ODIN is only built for windows HEIMDALL ( IMO IS superior) and is cross platform compatible
I have two versions and they all come with TWRP recovery(also superior imo)
if someone wants a full stock/wo root let me know but I created these to make it easy to flash other roms.
Or if you just want Heimdall files tars let me know.
Instructions:
reboot into download mode
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST JAVA 1.6 INSTALLED ON YOUR SYSTEM vista may require select dlls
windows :double click jar boot in download mode and click start
linux open a console type java -jar "jarfilenamehere.jar" boot into download mode click start
osx double click jar boot in download mode click start
HOW TO BOOt INTO DOWNLOAD MODE
Power down phone completely
Simultaneously Press and Hold [Power] [Home] [VolDn] until confirmation screen appears
Press [VolUp] to enter Download mode
Rooted+TWRP
No data wipe: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390288116658472114
data wipe: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390288116658472146
Credit goes to SEXTAPE thanks so much without you my last 2 devices would suck

Is there an update.zip?

Is there an update.zip I can use to root my phone from stock recovery? Iv had my phone for 3 weeks, and havent been able to sit still enough to root it with the computer. I know that it has been asked if you can root without computer and the answer was no. Was just curious if it was possible for someone to make an update.zip for people like me

Using an update.zip to flash in recovery would almost be like rooting without a computer.... wouldn't it?
Yes, it would be rooting without a computer. But im wanting to know if someone is able to make one? Or is it not possible?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
the update.zip would need to be signed by Samsung to be flashed through the stock recovery...
Will never happen...
Sorry about that but you need a computer in order to root.. unless an app exists if their is a vulnerability in the stock rom.

To install you need a root explorer app
Then you copy both files to the system/app folder...
Fix permissions and see what happens...
Make sure you make a back up just in case it breaks something...

Yeah. I wouldn't do anything until you unlock and have twrp and make a backup. Have you tried the freegee app?

I don't think anyone's experienced a hard brick from free gee. But anything you do is at your own risk obviously. There are a lot of helpful people here and on the optimus g IRC so chances are whatever you do can be fixed. In any case good luck.

Well I copied them into my system/app folder, fixed permissions, and nothing. Also tried deleting the JB camera and doing the same process to install the LG pro camera and nothing. Haven't tried it on a stock rom though. I'm on beanstalk currently.
