[PROGRAM] One Click Root / UnRoot / All Models for (Mac and PC)

Team,
This One-Click Root process will copy over the rooted-update.zip or unroot-update.zip file then reboot your phone. Follow the instructions in the CMD prompt that launches.​
I have another thread for the I9000 only! It is for rooting 2.1 ans 2.2 JP2. I added this thread because I9000M users don't have a forum yet. This app will work will all released Galaxy S phones for 2.1 stock only!!
Credits:
LeshaK at Samdroid: for the original rooted-update.zip.
gunnarhafdal : for creating the Mac GUI for my app.​
This has been tested on stock Android 2.1 Eclair only. If you rooted using another process you can use this process to unroot as long as you didnt load a rom that created links to busybox.
For the following models:
GT-I9000
Captivate SHG-I897
Vibrant SGH-959
GT-I9000M
Epic SPH-D700 (Untested but should work like other phones. Post with your results. This is harmless it will either work or it wont. It copies over 3 files to your existing build.)​
Rooting adds the following to your system and unrooting removes them:
/system/xbin/busybox (version 1.17.1)
/system/xbin/su
/system/app/Superuser.apk (version 2.3.1)
and links /system/bin/su to /system/xbin/su​
More will follow as they are released. PM me to add your Galaxy S Model.
Warning: I am not responsible for bricked phones, rooting can void your warranty....

Un-Rooting Instructions:
To Un-Root follow the same instructions except click on the Un-root button. If you rooted using another process you can use this process to un-root as long as you didnt load a rom that created links to busybox. I would suggest to restore you phone back to stock ROM before even needing to unroot and if you are on stock un-root all you want otherwise what is the point of un-rooting.

Hello (c)ollen!
Do you need the sdk for the Android drivers (for adb)
Or
Just the Motorola drivers?
He is yet to use superoneclick. He tried with z4 and had no success.

Hello world !!!
I've created a project of a new kind : The RecoverX Project
The goal of this project is to gather ALL the recoveries for ALL android devices in ONE tool which install them on the devices. RecoverX is coded in C++ thanks to QtSDK and allow to install a recovery on more than 150 different devices !!!
You just have to select your device and the recovery, click "Install" and RecoverX does the rest !!! It's that simple
This program require different prerequesties, depending of your device
- Wether you need an unlocked bootloader to flash the recovery partition (and fastboot drivers on your PC)
- Wether you need root access and usb debugging activated (if busybox is not installed, RecoverX will ask you the permission to install it).
This program have been published on XDA News : Here
Here is the list of supported devices :
Finally, a small preview
Awesome !!! Where is the download link ???
Here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227​

Wow! Nice! Its original CWM or a based CWM recovery?

It's a based CWM Recovery !!! But still have some minor bugs, that's why it's written "Beta".

How can I acces CWM after installation?

Just tap the screen several time when the SE logo appear.

Omg, how smart are you? Why didn't I think of that!
Don't use tools, use the proper hacking.
And if you were as good as hacker as you claim you are,
you'd know that's not true what you said. But it's ok.
Sell it. I hope the next owner will appreicate your loss as his/her gain.

Hey if we install CWM as this method just install in our system file. Some ROM cannot accept install with CWM like this . because it will format system partition . we have to use kernel integrated CWM

This tool is just for stock rom for people who can't or who doesn't want to unloc their bootloader.

working on XperiaS lock BL MIUI 2.7.20

Yes, it work on Xperia S but only on stock rom and not on stock rom
EDIT : stock rom

but MIUI is a custom rom

Sorry, I'm tired, the tool is only compatible with stock rom

MIUI is a custom rom but your recovery working on it, testet by me and it is workin great. Offcourse im using stock kernel.

Ok, thanks a lot !!! I prefered to said no because I was not sure about this...

To say that this is for bricked phones is inaccurate. These are the steps to follow when you want to flash any ROM, for whatever reason,even if your phone is working flawlessly.

see to it that you dont have any android emulator like BlueStacks installed on your pc ... and see if all the drivers are installed correctly

I followed the instructions to the letter, making sure each phased completed correctly before proceeding to the next step.
The only thing I did differently was using the latest version of framaroot v1.6.1 (01-NOV-2013)
I was able to successfully install root access on my XPERIA C1905. (version number: 15.1.C.1.17)
You cmd terminal almost indicates you did not have busybox successfully installed on your XPERIA M before starting the PC adb root process.
If you run PC companion and/or flashtool,it prompts required drivers to be loaded on the PC.
Need debug and unkown services enabled on the phone too.

If Busybox loads to 100% and when you do a normal install, it should now say the /system/xbin install is the same as what you already have installed.
Indicating the busybox is OK.
Do you see a Super user app in your application library?

Yes it's being shown as u said and superuser also in apps library
