Root How to root without flashing stuff?

[GilbertXg]

Is there anyway to root the epic touch by using something like z4root or gingerbreak or similar apps? Anything simple like that?

Many here including myself have used this method.

[ACS][Odin]Stock EG30 Odexed with Root 3.0/Busybox 1.18.4

It will give you root with the stock ROM, you will not lose any data and you do not have to do a factory reset. Clean and simple and takes 10-15 minutes including the download time.

Completely automated root... one click. Done. Stock so you should have no LOS if you didn't have it before stock. It includes an unroot that takes you back. No yellow triangles. No counter increments....

I tested this method and also can vouch for it.

Will this work on a stock Galaxy S2 Skyrocket with Stock ICS 4.0.4?

No.

Something designed for the E4GT will not work and could brick another version of the GSII.
