Samsung galaxy S i9088

Ey guys,
i bought a samsung galaxy s i9088 in china.
I just took a look at the captive wiki and it has the exact same specs and stuff.
I also want to root my phone, should i use the i9000 or captive thread?
or is this phone not able to get rooted?
Thanks, and sorry for my noobiness :<

According to this, it looks to be an i9000 variant. I would refer to the i9000 forum for most things, but rooting is the same across most galaxy S devices.

The root process failed because the model number didnt exist in the root file.
And the problem is i can't install z4root because the chinese phones don't have acces to android market..
Hope someone can help me out here

Try going to the correct forum first.
See the "GT-N7000" in the forum title? Does that look like your model number?
NO.
THERE IS A REASON FOR THIS.
FLASH ANYTHING FROM THE N7000 SECTION ON THE I717 AND YOU WILL HARDBRICK.

Samsung s4 root question
AT&T just replaced my S4 because of a constant reboot problem. The phone was rooted I used Wondershare to backup the bad phone. My question I have this new S$ and would like to have it rooted and also restore my app backup from Wondershare which is on my laptop. Is there anyone out there that can assist and certainly I will pay, just want someone reputable. Any thoughts and advice would be much appreciated. Chuck
Hey, sorry, don't know how you can restore it! Although you might get a little more attention if you make a thread for this in the Q&A section. Hope that you get answers! Good luck with phone #2!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

For some reason the second thread is missing, I cannot find it anywhere. If you're trying to root the i537, then use the first link. If you're trying to root the i9295 try using this method

1. At first this is the wrong section. You have to ask nooby questions in the Q&A section (if you don't find anything in the forum).
2. This is your second question without searching anything on the web. We have a great general forum where you can find the answers for all your questions.
3. If you uptade via odin to 4.1.2, then the firmware automatically unroot your phone
