I followed all your instructions,
my Samsung is rooted now, I see Superuser in Applications,
everything works perfect !!
SG ACE, Android 2.3.3, XWKPW

Before I tried:
- SuperOneClick 2.1.1 - frozen at Step 6,
- Z4Root - nothing done,
- Universal AndRoot - I found only version for Android 2.2......

and now Im happy with your solution !!!!
THANKS!!!!
 
Thanks A LOT man!
I tried the SuperOneClick method and it didn't work.
I tried this one and it works!
Works on Gingerbread 2.3.4! :D

Download the latest file that you need for rooting here:

-This file *must* be renamed to "update.zip"
-Note that since the original file is a zip file, your phone may read it as update.zip.zip, leave it like this.
-Place the file in the parent directory of your sd card
-Follow the author's advice as stated in the start of this thread
-Profit.
 
1. Download attached file and copy it to your sdcard
2. Run in maintenance mode (power + middle button)
3. Update from sdcard, select the file upd_1.zip.
4. After the update completed - reboot in normal mode.

Thats all - now you have rooted ace with android 2.3.3, and superuser in your apps.

works fine 2.3.3 so far, so good!! :)

Turn your phone off,not restart but actually turn it off. Whilst it's turned off hold and keep hold of the home button and then press and keep hold of the power button( so you are holding and keeping hold of both).
