Root One Click Root option(easiest) no computer needed

Im nu to this. always wanted 2 root my phone since i got it on black friday, (free @ radioshack). is it really this simple to root becuz i read alot of places that u can brick ur phone if u do sumthin wrong.
 
has anyone had any luck trying the z4root app? im going to try it tomorrow if nobody else has. going to be busy tonight. and dont wanna brick my phone on a friday night :)
 
I cant get it to work. the app installs, but when i go 2 z4root app, and tap permanant root, it looks as if its trying to do sumthing but eventually jus freezes my phone and i have to pop out the battery. any suggestions
 
ok i think i figured out. u gotta make sure you enable usb debugging otherwise it wont work. my phone is going thru the motions now.
 
ive been trying to do this z4 thing and it says "running exploit in order to obtain root access" for about 5 mins then my phone restarts and nothing happened, i dont think it finished. I also did this a few days ago and it worked and it downloaded this app called superuser (i think) but now it doesnt get downloaded?

Am i doing something wrong
 
will this work on the samsung transform ultra? it will be running the gingerbread 2.3, should i use the one click root?
 
I have downloaded the z4zoot-(which the program calls its self z4mod)
I put the file on my phone
Removed my phone from my computer
I have installed the Program on my phone.
I ran the program. Did it for 30 minutes, then it restarted and was not rooted.
Took out the battery, and ran it again, and hour later, still not rooted, and didn't restart this time.
I uninstalled the program, and re-installed it.
I took it out once more, and let it run over night, still not rooted.
Once again uninstalled it, and re-installed it, took out the battery, and then restarted it to run again. Still did not root.
All it ever says it is doing is -{[(Running Exploit in order to obtain root...)]}- if I leave the page and come back it will say that it is saving a file or something, then go back to the running statement.
What am I doing wrong, and why is it not working?
 
I can not seem to find the list of supported devices, and if there is a newer version of this one click app or not...

I have the Samsung galaxy 5 Player with the 7 inch screen.
(Supposedly it is exactly like the Samsung Galaxy S, but without the Cell chip)

I have the following on my device:
Firmware version: 2.3.5
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-G70UEKI8
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UEKI8
Model Number: YP-G70

Sorry for my being a bit skeptical, I just do not want to BRICK my device as I paid about 200 dollars for it, and if I break it, I wont be able to buy a new one within the year due to college...

Thanks for the help,

PS: I alredy installed the app, I just have not ran the Root/Un-Root features yet...
App looks nice, I'm an descent enough self taught programmer, and I've had this android device for a short while already, I'd like to learn more about this stuff, maybe help out with hacking it for stuff if I can, feel free to send me info, I'll try and reply in my free time! :)
