Yup SOC 2.3.3 definitely works flawlessly and EASILY for root on GP 5.0!

I plan on rooting with SOC 2.3.3 soon (SGP5.0 USA). I just want to be sure I do it right.

1. Phone on USB Debugging mode
2. Make sure the Android drivers for your phone are installed
3. Plug in USB cable, DO NOT mount your SD card.
4. Click "SuperOneClick.exe" on PC (right click, run as administrator)
5. Click Root

Is that right? Does the batch of SOC files need to be at PC root or can they be anywhere? Just want all my eggs in the right basket before trying this.

Just did it on Windows 7 64 bit. Step 2 is not needed. SuperOneClick 2.3.3 will ask you to install drivers. Just allow it. Took a few minutes but was simple.

I have the Galaxy Player 5.0 YP-G70 and I can't root this with SuperOneClick any version. I tried the zergRush-Doomlord rooting kit too (since basically SuperOneClick also runs the same thing i guess) and it tells me: Read-Only File System ! I tried making it Read-Write but it doesn't work, any ideas guys?

PS: My device is 2.3.6 updated via Kies from 2.2.2 Froyo!

Odd. Still showing 0 kb in /system after using included SU.

Sent from my YP-G70
It was my first time rooting... what's the problem installing busybox? It's showing "No space left on device". Thanks for the help.
Hi guys, how did you overcame problem with "No space left on device"? I read the whole thread, but didn't find solution for it. The same happened to me when I used SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse for rooting Froyo 2.2.2 (G70XXKD6).

Have you tried to use towelroot? It should work considering the kernel on these devices are really old and are not patch against the vulnerability that towelroot uses.

Here's it's link:

Hope it helps!

    Hey everyone, so I tried rooting the device with 4zroot and SuperOneClick both methods don't work. With 4zroot, when push root, the program backs out and force closes. With SuperOneClick, the program got stuck at "Waiting for device..." for over 15 minutes. I also gone and double-check every setting is in the correct order. I tried several times with both methods and failed. So do you have any ideas on getting root access on this device. Thank you.

    Firmware version: 2.2.2
    Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 root@SE-S608#1
    Build number: FROYO.DXKF3

    Edit1: Rooted successfully!! After trying about every suggestions i could find, i couldn't connect to kies, it said pc suite mode need to be activated, but there's no option for that in the 5.0 wifi, but after internal memory format and factory setting reset, i connect to pc (pc recognize, but kies didn't) i use the SuperOneClick and BAM! it is rooted!!
