you need to upgrade to gingerbread first, so use guide in My Android Solutions to solve USB connection problems first than use KIES to upgrade to gingerbread

Why not upgrade to 2.2 then install a pre-rooted kernel?

NO ONE knows how to root an i9000m 2.1 phone ? really ?
rooting was pretty easy with super one click

But I think you should get kies working instead.

Hi Funkadelick,
Have you no access to a Windows computer that is NOT running Windows 7 x64 bit, etc? A friend or family member perhaps?
I am on Windows XP and on a "Mini Notebook" of all things and I have never had any of the KIES issues that anyone has spoken about.
I recommend that you try to install KIES on a different computer running a different OS and see how that works. If you have already tried that then I dont know what to tell you...

That super-one-click thing doesn't work for me either - just sits on "waiting for device" and the program freezes up
*sigh*

[Q] how to root using mac?

hello! am extremely tempted to root, but am stucked. cant seem to find much on rooting with a mac. is there any reliable safe way to root my lgo2x? also whats the best/nicest rom ? haha
thnx
I dunno if there is an 'official' way to root on a Mac, but if you download & install CWM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098745
You can then flash the root files from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
Or just use the new recovery to install a new ROM.
Edit: Also it seems SuperOneClick works with Mono.

forgotten unlock code

i got a problem with a Samsung Galaxy i9000, a friend of mine forgot his his unlock figure, so i tried to reset it with the Google account, but he couldnt even remember the mail-adress.
Are there any ohter ways to unlock / reset the phone?
I have tried to use the Download manager to reset it, but the phone bootet up without the download manager popping up, also its not possible to do a hard reset by using key combinations.
I tried to use the emergency function to type the hard reset code, but it also didnt work :/
I really dont have any more ideas, can you maybe give me some tips that i could try?
I'm sorry for my bad english , but i hope you can understand what kind of problem i have
thanks

It depends on the recovery, but it works in TWRP.
It is the ROM that is rooted, so if you sideload a non-rooted ROM and flash it, you will lose root. It seems you don't have a working ROM, so you don't "have" root.

Let me correct you. You had a custom ROM that was rooted.
My suggestion is to fix the problem.
I can't help you because:
1) I don't know what recovery you have
2) I don't know what tutorial you followed
3) I don't know in which way it is "not working"
I suggest you flash TWRP 2.6.3.4 and use adb sideload.

You need to get adb working on your PC or you could try what bored_stupid is suggesting. You are a long why from requiring supersu at this point.

You don't even have a working rom so why are you still talking about root??? You don't need root to use a usb otg cable to flash a rom.
Make sure you have the latest android sdk installed on your computer and latest htc drivers.

It is problem globally! Google is experiencing major error with sync servers.
or try this: go to accounts.google.com and in security (left panel) go to the list of 3rd party applications that are using your Google credentials and start revoking the applications that you no longer use.
