Big question as always is why do you want to root the phone and void warranty ??/
jje
If you have a I9100/I9100T, look in settings/about phone & make a note of what you have listed in "baseband". Then go to this thread, find the kernel that matches the details in baseband on your phone.
Then follow the instructions in the thread I gave you a link to. Easy. There are also two other methods you can use to root your phone, Zergrush & SuperOneClick, search the board for details of these.
If you have a I9100G, you should be able to find a kernel to root your phone with in this thread.
If you have one of the other SGS2 variants, I have absolutely no idea.
Edit -JJE far too quick on the draw for me
Just flash CF-Root via Odin ^^

Make sure you have the i9100 SGS2. You can brick you phone if you flash it on a different phone.

How about reading the identical thread posted In Question and Answers today noob rooting .
But really you need to read and learn the basics before anything rooting is not some magic potion .

Then read the basics first 30 seconds does not give you any knowledge .
Use CF root from development is probably the simplest method if you follow the instructions .But i fail to see why you want to root a device when you dont even know what root is .

I read it all, i know what rooting is about, i wanna root, but at the sametime i dont wanna brick my device! I want adocker, titanium backup
Thank you for ur time
if you read it all, then you already know how to root, and that you posted in the wrong section
Its like we should beg you for little help?? EXCUSE ME if i posted in the wrong section its not a big deaal! I thought it was a site for helping noobs like me sorry for bothering u but i expected more help from u guys..
You have all needed help in the threads that were outlined for you. Read and make. That's all. We won't write for the 123456th time things already present everywhere on the internet. I personally used Samsung s3 toolkit that you can find in original android dev stickies thread.
I just followed what is written.
Noone is going to spoonfeed you, go read it yourself like we all did
Hi guys,
i know most of you are thinking now why i dont search or google or something else but really i cant do anything about this.
I am new to flashing and rooting and i rooted my s3 ella i9300 version with the samsung toolkit v 7.0 via odin.
Now i would like to instlall this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2106471&nocache=1
But srsly, there is no good tutorial for newbies. i cant understand why the developers never try to help us noobs in such situations like this.
So please can anyone help me out? I went into the download section of the ROM but there are so many files i dont know which to take and download...
Thanks in advance
Full instructions are on the website, linked in the OP of the slim thread which you no doubt read

Yes but you would be better not flashing that rom . But spending time reading the basics first as you are lacking in even the first steps .
Noobs are expected to read first flash last this is a developers forum for developers . Those that don't bother to learn the basics are not going to be spoonfed .
So seriously you read the posted stickied faqs and guides or suffer a bricked phone your choice .
