To root, you need to flash a rooted kernel (CF is closest to stock with root) through Odin.

Hi there,
I rooted my SGS2 with S2 Root v1.3
My phone has successfully rooted, but i've not found any links that can let me install CWM after that.
I'm not sure, but rom manager users have reported the rom manager CWM can't seem to do nandroid backups properly.
Anyone can point me in the right direction or post a guide? thanks.
I've searched with the search tool and can't seem to find anything that can help me after S2 root. Thanks.
I've seen this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693
But it still doesn't tell me if it is compatible if i've already rooted with S2 root.
There are some kernels which installs CWM and Super User automatically after rooting. Such kernels are Chainfire, SpeedMod T27 etc, others won't.
Regards.
ok. will check those out.

Hi All,
Instead of using CF-Root kernel to root my phone, can I use the SpeedMod(which includes root as well), or do I have to flash to CF-Root first and then re-flash to SpeedMod kernel?
Also, do you suggest I flash my Vodafone GR firmware to a stock one(KG2), prior to rooting the phone?
Many thanks for all the information posted on this forum!

no, you do not need to apply if speedmod is rooted.
no you do not have to go to stock to root.

Hello,
Everything I'm finding that even mentions your device you've already posted in. Please don't post multiple threads for the same issue.
with that being said, the best I can do to help at this point is to have your thread moved to a Q&A forum, maybe you'll get help there. Good luck.
