This is the problem: I wanted to downgrade to GB because I think is better for performance in games, and I flash it using Flashtool, the problem is when I want to root it (DooMLorD rootkit) Nothing happens, my phone should reboot with superuser.apk and busybox but it doesn't,,, neither of this apps are installed on phone and it says my phone is not rooted after check it with root checker... can't anyone help?
EDIT: OK
I solved it I just selected the "media transfer mode" in connectivity settings, Im so stupid. That did it.

Anyone know a simple and easy way to root my vibrant 2.2.1 froyo, z4root 1.3.0 didnt work for me....roms, kernals, all that stuff is way over my head, just need some clear and simple easy to follow instructions to root, any help would be appreciated

Super one click root.
Search on google, first link it comes to xda.
Use that. You need to have a computer though..
All you do is enable usb debugging connect usb click root it pushes update.zip to your phone
Then it installs super user app on your phone.
Then click test or something and on your phone superuser should ask for permissions
Z4root app
Simple..install the apk and root straight from your phone without need of usin usb and that

So i said factory reset will work bro, if you reset the phone that wiill make it work

SuperOneClick works, but it was also the exploit in all those bad apps Google pulled and your pc will think it's a virus.
If you use the ALT METHOD in the noob guide you can have a leaked froyo+root, and then flash a custom rom or stock froyo + root.

Go to Settings-> Applications and make sure you enable Unknown Sources. Then go to Development and make sure USB debugging is checked. Reconnect the phone via USB then check the flashtool again, Root button should be available after that.
Let me know what happens.
Alright thank you 10000 for everything dude you are awesome +1 when I grab my pc for sure!

does anyone expirienced simmilar thing? or have any tips?

So it's unsafe to install CWM, because it might break the offline charging?
And is there any 30 Step volume mod for stock ics?
And a reboot option?

Did someone will risk to try Boot menu manager from market?
It hijacks android booting process and installs a custom recovery.
Personally I use it on mine Motorola Razr.
I'd try it but I lost root on mine Xperia S.
Warning: brick is possible, so if someone try it make sure the tab is still in warranty period.
What we will gain?
Custom roms, CM10, etc.
Only problem is we dont have a custom recovery for our tab so we cant install what we dont have lol.

What is your busybox version?
Last one is 1.21.0.
You can download busybox from market, check version and update if it's too old.
If you update choose normal install.

Hijack "should" work on any android.
Bellow is a link to the original tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1720351
Mounting and flashing can cause a lot of problems.
We can use hijacking with pre-compiled CWM for Sony tablets.
But first we need a proof of concept. Will hijack work on our tablets?
