George Hotz a.k.a GeoHot is a name which needs no introduction when it comes to hacking devices, after working his way out pwning Apple and Sony devices he has now released an Android rooting tool named Towelroot.

Towelroot allows most Android smartphones users to root their Android devices with a single-click and that too without connecting to a computer, one simply needs to download the Towelroot apk file and install it on their devices. Towelroot exploits recently discovered vulnerability CVE-2014-3153 in Linux kernel version 3.14.5 and most versions of other Android devices to get the job done.

In last tutorial we demonstrated how to use cross-platform Heimdall flashing utility to get the latest stock firmware "Google Android 2.3.5 XXJVT" on Samsung Galaxy I9000, if you are a power user you must know the benefits of rooting your android phone and here is how you can root this latest stock firmware using ever popular Chainfire root and ODIN.

We have downloaded and flashed the all new Samsung Galaxy S firmware I9000XXJVS and the next step is to root it and get the powerful SuperUser benefits, here is how to do this using popular ChainFire root using ODIN (just download the Google Android 2.3.5 compatible root file CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVS-v4.1-CWM3RFS.tar from the links below and flash using ODIN with settings as shown below).

Google Android powered Samsung Galaxy I 9000 cellphone is receiving some great reviews and sales, but every phone has their own issues and Samsung Galaxy I 9000 has quite some too. One of the most annoying issue with this cellphone is connectivity with Wi-Fi networks, strangely the phone refuses to use Wi-Fi with full-signal strength most of the times as shown below.

After, trying and failing every single solution shared on android forums I tried using manual settings for Wi-Fi and it worked, a detailed how-to follows after the jump.
