I got SGSII from Southern America and the Kernel seems to be different than all tutorials.
Android Version 2.3.4
Baseband version I9100UHKG4
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100UHKG7-CL417954
[email protected] #2
Builn number
GINGERBREAD.UHKG7
If I root the phone with other kernel(XWKDD_insecure.tar), will it work?
Will it brick the phone
I'm trying this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056334
Read what it says.

Hi everyone,
My phone details:
Samsung Galaxy S2
Model GT-I9100G
Android Version 2.3.6
Build: gingerbread.XWKJ2
Kernel 2.6.35.7
I tried to root my phone before using odin 1.85 but guess I flashed the wrong kernel and got stuck in boot loop. I am not sure if I can root it by Doomlord rooting kit has anyone tried it on the "G" make?
Is there any other way to root because I have been searching a lot and most people could not root it by flashing kernels?

Kernel for XWKJ2?
The three kernels are for :
XXLA1
JPKK1
DZKL3
Not sure if to risk using one of them to flash XWKJ2 will work.

Learn how to use Odin
get ROM from checkfus downloader or sammobile.com
Pick lp7 ROM skip lp9.
You can flash any ROM if you got i9100, say UK lp7.
Flash using Odin.

I know how to use odin but the problem is lot of fermware and other information like baseband here is where I get confused.
So i dont know which fermware I should use provide I stay in Tanzania.

Doesn't matter were you are...
Get a whole package and flash.
Lp7 UK ics
Dxlp9 Singapore ics
Both stock roms work fine. Personally I say go for lp7 UK.
After that learn how to use cfroot kernel to get root access.

Thanks for that.
Can you give me that link for lp7.
I salute you.

This is my phone information and I'm trying to root with the latest odin3 and s2root and using the following kernels
Kernel_I9100XWLP7_INSECURE and Kernel_I9100XWLP7
I can install the insecure kernel ok and phone reboots fine. When I run s2root it tells me I'm not connected with a Samsung device. Any suggestions?

Thanks.
Do I have to flash the complete firmware (the same as I already have installed) or can I just flash with the correct, rooted, kernel?

Hello guys,
i have searched around forums about rooting the S2 and encountered alot, but I still have my fears as none of them was specifically for the version I have, detailed below. Please give me some links regarding this version because I dont want to loose my phone
and yes, I am an intermediate computer user. So I will understand most of the terms anyway. Thanks.

Ive no time to search properly but youd be better updating to 4.0.3 for your region etc then root from there.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Don't mess with 4.0.4
You can find several threads about updating

Simplest is Method 1 Instructions 2 on that thread. Download Root_SuperSU.0.96.Only-signed.zip and flash it via CWM. and USe temporary CWM
