What are you trying to do exactly?
Odin is PC software that lets you flash firmware onto your tab.
The stock ROM posted in broodcomb thread is KH7, it is a leaked ROM (not released officially).

Hi,
Can anybody tell me if i root my s2 (currently on KF3 firmware) with cf method and flash stock kernel,will i be able to install new ROMS like litening etc,how ?, and will i be able to come back to my stock firmware and kernel,and how ?
thanks in advance !
You can flash any Custom firmware anytime, without root. And you can go back to Stock firmware and kernel anytime.
Regards.
so if i root(by a method you earlier told me),can i also use any rom on that ?if yes then how and also can you please tell me how to come back to stock rom(before flashing with custom rom) state ?
You just need to add the .tar file of the Custom firmware in PDA section of Odin and flash, same for Stock ROM.
Regards.
you can root your phone as ihappy said but use the threads on the forums to find the stock kernels and roms that suit you. and i mean by what region you at. most of the custom roms come with root anyway so i would not worry about rooting. the thing is though whenever you do flash always make backup. first time i flashed i did not do backup and i was panicking on how to go back to stock.but thankfully the guys in this community are the best around and helped me out. hope my post helped in anyway

Dear all,
I know there are multiple threads running for the same, but still i was not able to understand most of the way. Am having SII which is running on Android 4.0.4, I want to root my phone so that i can install Jelly Bean Rom available in the forum.
last i have rooted Galaxy Spica 5700, but it required flashing device with Odin and instillation of a new kernel. But it seems like many new things have came up. Can someone please post me Point by point procedure of rooting my device with ClockworkMod recovery.
Plenty of threads that answer this question in detail. No need for people to duplicate topics or answers.

If you know how to flash kernels via odin its simple. Just download siyah kernel for i9100 , install the drivers required fr odin , flash the kernel in download mode. It will give you rot access and CWM recovery. Then yo can boot into recovery,wipe data/cache and install any rom you want. But do not wipe anything n stock recovery since you are on 4.0.4 (which has the brick bug)
you can also root by stock recovery just by flashing a single .zip file. But if you know the way to do it by odin i suggest the odin mehtod.
and to flash JB....MobileOdin Pro.......so you'll forget about rooting with the EverRoot option........................beware of the wipes with 4.0.4 tho, that crap is nasty.
hi,
I have a Galaxy S2 which I rooted very early on without flashing a custom recovery. At that time one just had to flash one specific thing via Odin and it was done.
So the thing is still running Gingerbread. Now I finally want to get a nice custom ROM on it. But I want to make sure that the current CWM recovery is still "compatible" to my old 2.3.3 Android (2.6.35.7-I9100XWKG1 kernel) - like, can I install the current CWM regardless of the fact that my Android is very old?
(I faintly remember having seen something about a CWM for ICS and another one for Jellybean, which is why I'm asking.)
Search the general i9100 forum on how to flash a custom ROM.
Start at the "guide index" thread and work your way from there.
Sent from my digital submersible hovercraft.
Thank you for the hint, however, I already studied how to flash a custom ROM in the CM10.1 thread and how to install CWM from the CWM thread.
My specific question was different:
This is the CWM thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693
In here they offer a version to download for JB (6.0.2.7) and a version for ICS (5.5.0.4). To me, this implies that I can't just install any CWM version with my Gingerbread. Is this true, and what version do I have to install, then?
Flash the latest stock rom with Odin. After that flash the recovery for JB. Then you should be fine.
I'm now trying for several times to flash the stock 4.1.2 rom on my galaxy S2 i9100, but unfortunately at the end of the phone will always restart with the old rom.All steps do not give error.
I do not know what to do.....
Can someone help me?
I use
odin 1.85 or 3.10
stock rom 4.1.2 I9100XWLSW_I9100XXMS3_I9100ITVLS2_HOME.tar
pit for file stock rom I9100_2GB-STOCK.pit
Thanks:good:
