Hi Everyone,
All help appreciated.
I can't figure out which file to use to root the following S2:
Android Version: 2.3.4
Baseband: I9100XXKI1
Kernel: [email protected]#2
Can someone point the way?
Thanks!
Can't you find like an old kernel from Siyah or CF-root for Gingerbread to root? And do you have an international GT-I9100?
Maybe he's not allow to read the threads.
Oh the humanity....

hi
i have recently changed from an x10 mini pro to a samsung galaxy s2 but it is full of orange bloatware. i have been searching on how to root my galaxy s2 but i haven't really found anything. i only want to root my phone, not install a custom rom or anything.
my phones details are:
model number: GT-I9100P
Android version: 2.3.4
baseband version: I9100PBVKI2
kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100PBVKI3-CL608158 [email protected] #2
build number: GINGERBREAD.BVKI3
it has nfc and is an orange uk phone.
i would like to be able to root it without losing any functionality if possible.
sorry for the noobish question but everything on the galaxy s2 seems confusing to me :L
thanks

Its full of guides
Your best bet is to use the zergrush kit or superoneclickroot

Hello,
I want to root my Galaxy II again after the update to Android 4.0.4.
My phone's data is:
PDA: I9100XWLPW
PHONE: I9100XXLQ6
CSC: I9100DBTLPI
Which kernel shall I use for rooting my phone again. I only found a CF-Root Kernel >CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_LPW-v5.5-CWM5.zip< containing a .tar-file from May 2012. I believe, this is an old file and not for use with 4.0.4. But what ist the right kernel? Can you help me?

Why not go for a custom kernel like Siyah, Dream Kernel or Dorimanx? Those can be installed via Odin too.

Flash a custom kernel NOT Cfroot inorder to stay safe from the brick bug.

ICS 4.03 is safe. Do not update it to 4.04 official rom. You can easily root your phone and install CWM recovery. Then flash a custom 4.0.4 ROM or whatever you like. For a start i suggest this rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1824586

actually, for installing custom roms you really dont need to bother about your firmware details only your device make and model
unless you need to flash stock roms
if you are not rooted then search for siyah kernel(safest way to start) and flash it via odin
you can find the details in the forum
then flash the custom rom via recovery
