[How to] Root Samsung Infuse **5/19/11**[Windows & Mac]Now with GingerSnap!!

Everyone - thanks a lot!!!! I rooted using the adb method. What are the differences between each method of rooting? Also, how do you get free wireless tether on this phone after rooting - this is one of the main reasons I rooted.

Welcome and congrats everyone...................... there is no real differences between them, maybe folders they put it the files in but in the end they all go to the same place.... i dont know how the kernel treats tether and whether or not they can track it, so i dont want to recommend it.

When I try the adb method it says list of devices: I997 not I500. Help?

serial numbers are unique for each device all you should care about is that your infuse shows a serial number at all so you can continue
 
I realize I'm a noob, but at step 1. this is what pops up on my screen; (trying to download drivers)


"Forbidden

ummm....help? What I miss? I can't seem to find these Infuse drivers anywhere, even on Samsungs website. Thanks in advance for any help/comments/suggestions.

I need help. I tried both ways. The Gingersnap runs for 1 second and says phone will reboot but nothing happens. The second method returns a response with the model number but says offline. I rebooted prior but it not help. Any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks
