Hi I just downloaded and flashed v 2.3.6 XWKK5 version, however im having trouble rooting the phone, I downloaded the XWKK5 insecure kernel and when i use odin it says invalid hashtag or something. Am i using the right insecure kernel? Could someone point me in the right direction of the insecure kernel please.
Many thanks
Here you'll find the CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5.zip .
Flash it.
KK5 CF-Root or any of the latest Speedmod kernels.

Well, a new version got out. KL1. Download this one, use SIyah/Speedmof/whatever and then use OneClickRoot to get root.
Does anyone have the Secure Kernel though?
because the ones linked in the forum, are all invalid!

Hey guys,
I have a question about flashing an insecure kernel to root my phone. Its from Australia on virgin:
PDA: I9100XWKEB
Phone: I9100XXKE6
CSC: I9100XSAKE3
I want to keep my current rom to do a backup after rooting, so does it matter which insecure kernel I choose KE7, KE2 etc? As I cant see one which is XWKEB. I dont want to change to another firmware before rooting as I cant find my current one to download in case I have to return the phone under warranty.
Cheers
Which insecure kernel to use for root with S2 Root
I'm brand new to Android, so please be gentle (I am very experienced with jailbreaking IPhones, but that don't help here!). I've searched the forums but still have no clue as to the answer to this question.
Like the previous poster, I would also like to know which insecure kernel to use for my newly-purchased S2. My details are :
Baseband version : I9100TDUKF2
Kernel version :2.6.35.7-I9100TDUKF2
Build number : GINGERBREAD.DUKF2
Look forward to hearing from someone. And thanks in advance.

Let me know if you have any luck as i have the same and just cant find any info on this phone. Maybe because its unbranded?

You can use any insecure kernel, I've only ever use insecure KDD.
Hello
I have a insecure kernel installed.
do I need to install a secured kernel?
is there any issues with staying with a insecure kernel?
if I update with a new kernel does the kernel need to be with the firmware I have ie 2.3.5
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Insecure kernel just means adb has root permissions, and its not really a problem in the long run as long as it's upto date.
It's best to match the kernel to the rom you are using, so a ki3 2.3.5 kernel with a ki3 rom etc.

I have rooted my phone using the insecure kernel of chainfire and I also obtained the stock kernel provided by him. But, when I load the stock kernel using Odin my phone is just restored and I lose the root. What's wrong there? Any idea?!

root goes through the kernel so putting a non-rooted kernel back on takes away root
you need to search for a stock rooted kernel to go back to stock kernel and still have root

I rooted and kepted an inscure kernel on my phone and had no problems and if you are going to flash a custom rom then it will come with an inscure kernel anyway.

Did you ever find the secure kernel for the GT-i9100? I just rooted my device but I can't find a secure original kernel anywhere. I would like to have root on my phone with a secure kernel. Why is this so far to find? Do most people just operate their phones with the insecure kernel? Isn't that unsafe?
I just updated to firmware 2.3.5, and my Baseband version is I9100XXKI4 and my Kernel version is I9100XWKI8. Build number is GINGERBREAD.XWI8.
So if i am going to flash with Odin, what do I flash? I have found a insecure Zip-files with XXKI4 and another with XWKI8, but I am not sure wich one of them would work. I rooted the phone on 2.3.3, and then I flashed the kernel, but now i'm not sure, since XWKI8 is my baseband version. I know this is a little noobie, but I want to root my phone and not brick it.
So my question is, flash with XWKI8 or XXKI4

The easiest way to root your phone is to flash CF-Root kernel.
Here is Chainfire's thread => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399&highlight=CF+Root.
Please read first post.
For your current ROM, you should flash CF-Root kernel for XW_NEE_KI8 from 6. post.
That's all !
After flashing this kernel (by using PDA section of Odin), you will see a yellow triangle when booting.
In the second post, Chainfire described how to get rid of the yellow triangle after rooting.
The needed stock kernel for your ROM can be downloaded from Intratech's Official Firmware thread here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278.
You can use the XWKI8 stock kernel from the second post.
The password to extract the file is also written in the post.
But you do not need to remove the yellow triangle.
It is optional and up to you.
Good luck !
Thank you!

Yes, zergRush exploit (=> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319653) method is also an option to root the phone.
Intratech has described this method in his first post as "Quick Root Guide".
Very "elegant", because you do not get a yellow triangle and the binary counter won't be incremented.
But as you are a "Noobie", I recommend to flash a rooted kernel (such as CF-Root kernel) to root your phone, which is more simple.
If you read Intratech's Quick Root Guide and feel confident to root your phone like that, then use this method.
If not, stick to Chainfire's CF-Root method.
It is your choice.
Well, I'm not that noob, I rooted my HTC Desire and SGS2 on 2.3.3, but I was just a little confused with this one
First of all, thanks for reading this post.
I have a I9000 Samsung S2 here in Chile, with Entel Carrier and a 2.3.6 Android version, kernel KK3.
The problem is, I can't find a root KK3 kernel for it.
Also, I couldn't find an answer, if it's possible to use a KK2 or a KK5 instead of it.
Please anyone could solve this questions?
Thanks, once again.
maybe flash yourself a KK5 firmware? then you could go for KK5 cf-root

So, if I am right, I should install a stock kk5 kernel and then go for the cf-root?
I mean, are they compatible, right?

flash the whole stock rom (pda, csc, modem, kernel)
I flashed a KJ3 kernel on my KJ4 rom, so you should be OK just flashing the KK2 kernel

mmm thanks....
So, the question now is kk2 or kk5?
Well, I took my chances and tried with KK5... Success!!
I'll post if I find some troubles
I am trying to root a SGS2, i am not sure what kernel to use, my current kernel version is XWLPD-CL524746 [email protected] 154 #3
What I want is clockworkrecovery in order to install a MIUI rom.
this guide states the following:
To work out which version you need go into Settings --> About Phone in your Galaxy S II, and scroll down to where it says "Kernel version". You will see a string something like this: 2.6.35.7-I9100XXKI3-CL571576. The yellow bit after the XX is what you're looking for.
My current kernel does not correspond to this.. what to do?
