Default Problem when Rooting! Not Noob Problem! Tried Everything!

Hey Guys, I have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G. I've been trying to root and I've ran into so many problems. I use SuperOneClick. It usually doesn't work or just freezes. Before you call me a noob. Yes I have the Drivers. Yes I've tried different versions of Drivers. Yes I used different versions of SuperOneClick including Latest and Older that have been said to work. Yes I used different exploits for both versions in SuperOneClick. Yes I've ran as Administrator as well. I have Windows 7 32 Bit. I just don't know what's wrong!

Have you tried different USB cables or slots? Sometimes that matters.

Yes that definitely would be a good idea. I keep forgetting about those Odin kernels.

Lol yea superoneclick never rooted GB lol

you can either use the method I found when GB first came out or the easy more up to date technique and flash one of drhonks.gn kernel that will auto root you
