Hi!
I've just gotten my GT-i5801 recently, and I was wondering whether the root would work for my phone. I tried multiple times but it gave me a "operation aborted" and I had no choice but to do a system reboot instead of installing the update. Could anyone advise on this? Thanks!

For Spica there is a sollution to restore it, but I think woth i5800/01 don't work.
Any luck restoring your IMEI? How has having an IMEI full of zeros affected your phone?

Working, but the Wifi mac is changing after I reboot the phone.
I don't know how can I restore it, because I tried to copy full /efs folder from another G3, but the phone restored the corrupted files.

Simply use rootme.bat instead the .exe
.exe file just call the . bat file

Or put update.zip to sdcard and start the phone in recovery mode.

One question about battery life....

My i5800 runs out of battery in 24h, even with APN off.

With a 1500 battery I think this isn't normal, no?

Hi,

thanks for the tutorial.
But unfortunately, it doesn't work on my i5800

Like girishmadas I've got some troubles to start the application, so I directly use the rootme script. It works fine (all files are copied in phone and symlinks are created ...).

BUT under a shell (though adb shell command), the su command is rejected :

adb shell
$ su
Permission denied

I check, that su application has suid : yes
So there's still something wrong with i5800 and this root kit.
