Rooting the Captivate Glide (SGH-I927)

I get a "not signed" error everytime I try this?

Sim contacts.

The AT&T rooted rom doesn't recognize that there's a sim card in it? Is there a fix to this? Thanks for the help too!! I was searching everywhere!!

Ok.
I attached the "boot.tar" to Odin and I got the green light and it appears to be successful.
but now I am stuck on what to do if anything with this "i927 factory fs_rooted.img.tar".
and then what to do after that?

Hi

Look into the google play store, search for "check root" there are apps who could tell you.
But If you have a terminal app installed simply open it and type in "su" if you get a prompt asking for root/su permissions you are rooted. If you get something like "command not found" or similar then you aren't.

Well you should avoid to re-root unless you use the same rooting method as before. That means if you used guide X then you could root again by guide X but not by guide A. Hope you got what I mean. The reason for this is that rooting with different methods can result in 2 different rooting apps installed like supersu and superuser which are co-existing then. And this can result in strange behaviour.

Rooting means that you install a "su" app within /system partiton which is normally not possible for a normal user. That said you need to hijack Android/the device to make that possible and that is what you will do when rooting. Afterwards when an app asking for root permission you will get a popup asking for it.

sediROM is already rooted (you can choose within the installer if you either want to have it rooted or not) but you will need to have TWRP recovery installed to be able to install sediROM. Read the instructions in my thread carefully and before anything else follow the backup instructions (nandroid + EFS)!!

If you want to install sediROM you can choose partial wipe or full wipe. I would recommend a full one in your case to be sure that you have only 1 su app installed. Unfortunately that means you will loose apps and configs so I would (beside the nandroid + EFS backups) also do a backup of all your apps wit "mybackup root"(only possible if you're already rooted of course) or titanium backup which will cost some money if not rooted but it is a very good backup app. In both cases ensure that you not backup the app only but also the "data".

If you are not rooted yet you could try the partial wipe when installing sediROM. As always you should backup before here too.

Regarding you last question: Unfortunately the polish language is not enabled in sediROM (German,English,Espanol and some japanese/chinese ones) but you could add a feature request to my sediROM thread ( look there at the top in the menu and click on feature request ) if you like.

Regardless of which ROM you will install now I hope that was helpful for you a little bit regarding background etc
