I just got the phone couple hours earlier and was able to root the Samsung Vibrant and install free wifi tethering app that turns your Samsung Vibrant into a mobile hotspot.
What does rooting do for your Samsung Vibrant?
Rooting your Samsung Vibrant gives you superuser “root” access to your Vibrant’s system. This can be great for installing 3rd party apps like the wifi tethering app and custom ROMs. Sometimes you can get updates quicker through custom ROMs.
