As the title states im looking to remove root info from my kernel version for warranty purposes, my phone shows -
2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI4-CL575468
[email protected] #2
I am not able to use usb for kies or S2 root but i can flash via ODIN and have flashed original rom/kernel to stock but the root info remains under kernel version , is there a way to remove?
Thanks in advance.
I'm sure I answered this very question yesterday ... oh, I did! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22163342#post22163342
That "root" just means that the user "root" compiled the kernel on the machine "DELL143", not that your phone is rooted.
Sorry, but this just has to be done
Ok thank you, i did search the forum but no result came up.
Just need to reset my flash counter and send it back then.
Thanks again

I'll match that, OP needs to watch this.
OP click the play button
Edit, good to see that you did search OP it's a common mistake to misinterpret the "root" and thinking you've got a rooted device.
Bam ! It's a verry niice

And yes i am a noob, and i do hate myself pmsl.

1) i have sgs2 GT-i9100 no i9100P or N or G or etc... i want to root it and i want it step by step if you will.
2) if i root my device can i update the software with automatic updates or i will need to flash the updates like flashing a new ROM?
3) Does ROM Manager work on sgs2 just like DHD?

If you're going to use Rom Manager, do not use Clockwork Recovery. Rom Manager tends to break CW & can also cause bootloops. So you either use one or the other

Everything you need to know is in Stickies. If you're expecting easy/to be spoonfed it ain't gonna happen.
If you start messing with your phone before you understand what it is you're doing I can almost guarantee you'll soft brick your phone & potentially be without it for a day or two until you figure out how to fix it. And worse case you may hard brick it.
So...Start reading.
MistahBungle is totally right ...
But because I am/was a rookie to several days/weeks ago, i will help you as far as i can.
Put XDA on your device and you can read all around

You need to install KIES on your Desktop or Laptop ... If so, download ODIN from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=611625&d=1306787405

Hi
I'm sure you get this a lot, but I really suck at this. Its my third week surfing these forums and I still can't put a step by step guide in my head on how to root it. A lot of the phrases are out of my understanding, so I'm going to ask and hope someone replies
Here's what I got : Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100. Android 4.0.3 , Kernel 3.0.15-I9100XXLPS-CL294511, Build number IML74K.XXLPS
The question is this : Can I root it with 1 click? Truly, without searching for some drivers and stuff I'm not sure I'll find.
Please be aware that I really suck at this, and that I'm basically rooting my phone for Market Enabler and to remove that thing that pops when you double tap center key, the voice command thing, drives me nuts.
Thank you and have a great day!

Use the XX_OXA_LPS CF-Root kernel to root. (find it by doing a "find on page" on the thread) Follow the instructions in post 1.
You will need Kies installed, but not running, for drivers. (or the standalone Samsung USB drivers) Both or either can be found easily with a Google search.
Hey,
Thank you for your quick reply! I do have Kies, as it came on the phones SD card
I will give this a go right now, thank you again for saving me moar weeks of search <3

You know I meant Kies to be installed on your PC, right?
Hey,
Yeah I know. When I purchased the phone I found Kies installation on the SD card, and installed it on the PC. Was the same with Desire HD, I found HTC Sync installation on the SD card. I thought it was normal

That method does not work for newer releases of 2.3.6 or higher. That includes ICS. Which the OP is on. So it would not work for him.
Just flash in PDA of Odin the cf-root kernel of your firmware

I didn't download it to check, but just watching the video, (at 3:02) the command window that pops up clearly says "Easy rooting toolkit (v2.0) created by DooMLoRD" up at the top, followed by "Modified by Max Lee @ GalaxyS2Root.com". (I believe Max Lee is zedomax, but I don't know for sure)
I don't know what this Max Lee fellow changed, but I'm willing to bet that the actual exploit used to gain root is exactly the same, yes.
Hey just a quick one
Where do I get odin? And how to put my phone in download mode? Is it power, home, and volume down?
Thank you!
EDIT : Made it, but nowhere it says about USB debugging? Should I put it on or off?
EDIT 2 : Made it Ty all!

That's because it doesn't matter if USB debugging is on or off for Odin flashes.
Hello world.
I am searching here but I fail a lot. I want to upgrade my phone into 4.0.4 android becouse this one don't have my language in it (Slovenian)
What I need to do?
Go to Sammobile, register there and download the preferred firmware for your device and flash it with Odin.

Sure you can fail.
My recommendation: do your due diligence in research, and make sure whatever you are flashing is meant for your model of phone before doing anything.
#1 reason I've seen for bootloops and bricks is due to people just flashing the first thing they find, which ends up being a firmware meant for a different model of phone.
If you want an easy an almost 100% brick free way to root your phone, download siyah kernel and just flash it through the PDA section of Odin.
That will give you root + permanent CWM
I rooted phone with odin and it's ok but I think there is something wrong with GPS.(Not working)
It start working when I rebooted my phone.
Another thing..Where can I get boot animations ?
I found it (lol) Thanks for everything
Google can be really good friend!
I'm a bit a noob when it gomes to rooting phones.

By flashing a kernel like siyah v6 b5+ via odin.
Thanks for the answers!
Now first of all, ExynosAbuse would be perfect but does that support 4.1.2?
Also what comes to sidyah, does that support phones that are sim-locked? If so, how can i get rid of the operator sim-lock and is this risky?
And for the last: if i root my phone, can i get official updates in the future from samsung? Cause i don't wanna mess with the style that i got in my jelly bean quite like it, just want to get superuser-access.
So the app that i'm searching for is one click root that supports updates in future for 4.1.2. Is it impossible?
Thanks!
I'm with theunderling here.
I've always flashed via Odin woithout any problems and it very quick too. If you do everything right, it shouldn't take more than a minute, dead serious. 1 minute. Okay maybe more, but maximum 2 according to me
Just download tar or md5 file. Open Odin. Put the file in PDA. Then start. (and make sure Re-Partition is NOT checked)
(Im not going to give you step by step instructions cause that is for you to find out But i've actually helped you out alot
Good luck, and post for further question. Just dont forget to search before.
*EDIT* Yea, siyah is one of the best kernels, and dont worry everythin should be the same. You can get siyah kernel from gokhanmoral.com

Hello,
Aint sure if this question is already answered, I searched but didnt find it immeaditly, so i thought it was better to make a topic, So i could also ask a few questions more,
So i have a S3 international for a while now,
And i was thinking to leave the stock rom alone, But rooting, Doing clockwork recovery and a new kernel on it, I am think to get Perseus.
So the question is, if i do this, will all my apps be gone from my Phone and will it be cleaned up?
Also i wanted to ask if i do this, and theres a update from Samsung, How do i update it? Just click on it? will anything be erases/bricked?
Also i seen that the Toolkit (for root and recovery etc) is for 4.1.2, but i recently had a update XEMC2, but the kernel name is still the same, Is it safe to use this toolkit?
Thanks for reading this post,
Best regards,
DrLuigi.

So if i understand you,
It will be cleaned up, all apps will be gone?
And i will only be able to update with KIES, and not the one installed on the phone updater?
and it isnt safe to use the toolkit due it doesnt have EMC2?
i think it might be safe due wll, Its still the same kernel etc, I heard the only change they made was some bugs?

Well probably we will still get Keylime after Jellyban 4.2.1, Since well, Samsung would be crazy if they would let down the Note 2 and S3 users,
Wich are like millions.
It would be actualy good for there name if they satisfy there customers, and get them a even better name when talking about updating there devices,
Well thats my opinion atleast.
I dont think they would let 40 (it was 40 million right? ) million users down on updates.
