Rooting and Installing Clockworkmod Recovery on XXJVK Android 2.3.3 ROM for Galaxy S

Author Kapil Malani Published on

[info]This guide is applicable only for Samsung’s Galaxy S international version (i9000). If yours is Vibrant/Captivate/Fascinate/Epic 4G or any other Galaxy S variant, then this ROM — and Guide — is not for you, and that’s for definite.[/info] Warning: Warranty may be void of your device if you follow the procedures given on this page. You only are responsible for your device. We won�t be liable if any damage occurs to your device and/or its components.

UPDATE: Chainfire’s Root method is much better than the previous method. So, we recommend using the latest method of Chainfire, which is here.

This is rooting guide for the leaked XXJVK Android 2.3.3 ROM for Galaxy S

Here’s what you need to do to root your XXJVK Android 2.3.3 firmware on Galaxy S:

  1. Download CF-Root kernel. File name – CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v3.1-CWM3RFS.zip. Download Link. Size 6.7 MB.
  2. Unzip the above file. You will get the .tar file – CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v3.1-CWM3RFS.tar. We will be flashing this .tar file using ODIN to gain root access and install the CWM alongside.
  3. Download Odin. File name – Odin3 v1.7. Download Link. Extract the zip file to get Odin3 1.7.exe. Run Odin by double clicking on it.
  4. Switch Off your phone. Wait for vibration to confirm complete switch off.
  5. Boot your phone in Download Mode — Press and hold VolumeDOWN+HOME+POWER keys together.
  6. Connect your phone to PC now. You’ll notice “Added! !” message in the message box.
  7. On Odin, click the PDA tab and select the .tar file you got in step 2 — CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v3.1-CWM3RFS.tar
  8. Make sure “Repartition” button is NOT checked. Leave the “Auto Reboot” and “F. Reset Time” buttons checked.
  9. Double check step 7 and step 8.
  10. Click the Start button on Odin to begin installing the CF Root kernel.
  11. After the CF Root is installed, phone will restart.
  12. Your phone is rooted now. Note that surperuser app is there.

ClockworkMod [CWM] Recovery:

To boot into ClockworkMod Recovery — power Off your phone completely and then, press and hold (till Galaxy S logo appears): VolumeUP+HOME+POWER. You’ll enter the CWM recovery. You can use this to:

  • Backup your ROMs
  • Restore backed up ROMs
  • Delete Backups
  • Flash update.zip files
  • Flash custom themes
  • Flash kernels (zImage, zImage in TAR, zImage in ZIP, zImage in TAR in ZIP)

PREVIOUS METHOD — DON’T USE NOW. Use the method given above instead.

Installation Steps:

  1. Download the required stuff:
    1. CF-Root-XW_OXX_JV1 kernel – Download Link: Mediafire.
    2. Odin3 v1.7 – Download link: MediaFire.
    3. Kernel_XXJVK – Download Link: Multiupload.
  2. Now, on your computer, extract the ‘CF-Root-XW_OXX_JV1-v1.3-BusyBox-1.17.1_NO-CWM’ file we downloaded in step 1.1, so that we get the ‘.tar’ file which we’ll use in step 10
  3. Double click on ‘Kernel_XXJVK’ and select ‘Extract’.
  4. Switch Off your Galaxy S. Wait for the little vibration to confirm complete switch Off.
  5. Get your Galaxy S in Download Mode — Press and hold these keys together – Volume Down + Home + Power. The device will enter the Download mode.
  6. Now, extract the file — Odin-1.7with.pit.512.803.zip — given step 1.3 above. From the extracted files, open Odin3 1.7 from double clicking on it. The other two files are useless here.
  7. Plug-in USB cable to connect your Galaxy S to PC. You should get the “Added! !” notification in the message box in Odin.
  8. In Odin, the first thing you need to do is uncheck the Re-Partition box.
  9. Keep the ‘Auto Reboot’ and ‘F. Reset Time’ boxes checked.
  10. Now, click the PDA tab and select the file we extracted in step 2 — ‘CF-Root-XW_OXX_JV1-v1.3-BusyBox-1.17.1.tar’.
  11. Click Start now to flash. It would take just a minute or two. And the phone will boot automatically.
  12. Your phone is now rooted. Check for Superuser app in the app drawer.
  13. Now, switch off your phone and put it into download mode again. We will flash the file we extracted in step 3 to get back to XXJVK kernel.
  14. Open Odin and click on ‘Reset’ button.
  15. Plug-in USB cable to connect your Galaxy S to PC. You should get the “Added! !” notification in the message box in Odin.
  16. Uncheck the ‘Re-Partition’ box. But keep the ‘Auto Reboot’ and ‘F. Reset Time’ boxes checked.
  17. Click the ‘PDA’ button and select the file we extracted in step 3 — ‘Kernel_XXJVK.tar’.
  18. Now click ‘Start’ and wait for your Galaxy S to boot.

How to Root Installation Video Guide

The video below was made for rooting the new leaked ROM, XWJVB. It’s also based on the chainfire’s method but uses the root file applicable for XWJVB. But this video is helpful for those who want to root XXJVK too, because only one file changes while the method remains completely same. So, you can use this video to watch the method for rooting your XXJVK Galaxy S.

Thanks to XDA member ChainFire for his awesome work and Ramad for instructions.

  2. I think there is an error linking to the files. The 1 is linking to Kernel XXJVK and no.3 is linking to a Speedmod Kernel.

  3. I have bricked the phone with this PDA. Odin returned fail and then the black screen of death appeared.

    Any ideas ? Will I get into download mode with the resisor hack ?

  12. help!my phone is stucked at ‘galaxy s’ boot up after installation.what should i do?

  13. Latest news. The resistor hack worked and started my phone into download mode. The second rooting attempt also worked.

  14. When I extract the CF-Root-XW_OXX_JV1 kernel I only get another rar file. When I extract that, I get a z1 file. Is this correct??

  17. Got it all done fine now thanks.
    Finding it much quicker and smoother than Froyo. Thank you very much for supplying the links and guides.

    Tojj

  18. Thank you for this guide!

    I use kernel 2.6.35.7-I9000XWJV1-CL31216 version 2.3.2 build GINGERBREAD.XWJV1
    can I root using this procedure directly from 2.3.2 ?

    I’ve noticed that for both files you load using the PDA option in Odin,
    I thought the kernel suppose to be loaded using the PHONE option???

    Thanks

    1. I’m confused if you already know this or not, but this guide is for rooting XXJVK Android 2.3.3 build, which is newer and BETTER than the one you’re using [XWJV1].

      So first flash the latest ROM using the guide in the following link: https://nerdschalk.com/how-to-install-xxjvk-android-2-3-3-rom-on-samsung-galaxy-s-instructions/

      After flashing — follow the instructions given above to root your new ROM — which is XXJVK Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread build.

      And NO, “Kernel” goes to the PDA option and “Modem or Phone” files goes to the Phone option. Don’t worry you should be good if you follow the instructions carefully. Okay!

  24. i just upgrade mine to 2.3.3 but it’s not rooted so can i just start from step 7 – 10? will it work?

  25. i just upgrade mine to 2.3.3 but it’s not rooted so can i just start from step 7 – 10? will it work?

  26. I have upgraded to Gingerbread 2.3.3 and also rooted my phone with above process. Thanks for providing very simple procedure.

    But I am not able to find any lagfix for Gingerbread 2.3.3, can u please tell me where do I find that?

    1. Well, JVK (android 2.3.3) has no lagfix installed. If you’re looking to go back to Froyo, wait for a couple of hours, we’ll have the guide for that soon. We’ll be using EZRom for that. EZRom will install the stock Samsung Froyo ROM (JVE) on your phone that will be already rooted and with superuser, titanium backup and CWM already installed. Okay!

    1. Is it after applying the root on XXJVK? Was it connecting before? Some problems have been reported with JVK — one among them being with the 3G. I guess, you can use WiFi network to connect to internet. Lemme know how does it work out?

  29. Hi!
    I just installed this rom and i’m wondering, because all gingerbread anims are missing..why? ( eg. crt screen off) any solution?

  40. Hi,
    I have a little question. I installed the ROM XXJVK last week and I was wondering : will I loose my datas if I want to root it ?

    And do I have to do the steps after the step 12 ? Because if I re-install the kernel, won’t I loose my datas ?

    Thanks for the reply.

      1. sorry to keep posting but just to be sure so i unzip the. zip file using 7 -zip is it now the next file thats named as a .tar that i use or the next one along  when i click on it it opens as a .rar and inside their is a zimage? long story short do i use the file that has the zimage inside it thanks i really appreciate it i just realy dont want to brick my phone.

  74. Since installing the CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v3.1-CWM3RFS.tar I’m stuck with a boot loop. Any suggestions what to do about this?

    1. JVK was a trial Android 2.3 build from Samsung. I would recommend you to
      download and install the latest and best Android 2.3.4 build — xxjvp.
      Search for this here on this website and download and install it. Root guide
      is also there and works quite well too.

      Good luck. I hope it helps!

  80. Just rooted my Samsung Galaxy GT I9000.  It seemed to work just fine, it passed.  However, instead of showing the “S” at the start up screen, it now says “cellular one”.  That is not our carrier?  The phone does not seem any different, in fact, is now locking up.  Help

  83. Hello,

    I was using CM7.2 with XXXJVK.
    To root the phone I downloaded CF-Root kernel. File name – CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v3.1-CWM3RFS.zip

    Did the ODIN process properly as explained above. But when phone started it has stuck on the Samsung logo and i cant do anything. Even recovery does not give me access to the sdcard.

    Please help as im not a developer. Im just an android enthusiast !

    1. Don’t know why that happened, but would recommend you to install the latest firmware, XXJW4, to get phone working back.

      Link to install XXJW4 – nerdschalk.com/galaxy-s-gets-official-value-pack-firmware-xxjw4-includes-touchwiz-4/ If you want to root your Galaxy S on XXJW4, follow link at the step 14 of the above guide.
