Guys... I just bought my first high end phone and got my hands Samsung Galaxy S II I900G. It's an awesome phone and I just wanted to know how to root it ??
Baseband :- I900G DDKI1
Build No. :- XWKJ2 (2.3.6)
use siyah-kernel.
That's easy way.

Isn't there any update.zip available that can be flashed via recovery ??
Or any PC software such as SuperOneClick ??
I9100G root kernels here, which you can flash by following the guide here. SuperOneClick, don't know a lot about it as I've never used it, search on here for the thread.
No, there is nothing you can flash from standard Android recovery to root your phone.

Even though i dont own that phone, while searching the internet, i found this: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2068824
hope that helps!!
Just flash one of these kernels that matches your firmware.
Thx Bro....
me go study 1st how to root
Just rooted my SGS2 using the DooMLORD easy rooting application.
Superb piece of software.
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 ( Indian ) in a flat 4minutes. I was very nervous in rooting the phone having bricked my Samsung i780 in flashing custom ROM and having sent my Omnia i900 nearly to death flashing a custom ROM .... but then the thrill of rooting and modifying the device got better of me and I did it in a flat record time of 4 minutes.
The option of unrooting is an added benefit.

already post in here the links to doomlord thread
hi everybody,
has anyone tried this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399. does it works for i9100G?
guys, bare in mind that this guy is using I9100 G .. The G model is not the same like our I9100 ..
can anyone confirm the Doomlord tool is working with I1900 G model ? G . G . G.
To root an I9100G, flash with the rom from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
In the first post, search for I9100G. There are two version, DZKI1 and ZCKH4. Flash the one matching your firmware. However, only the KH4 one has clockworkmod recovery. The KI1 one only has the standard recovery. If you want clockworkmod with KI1 kernel, you can use my kernel from here:

and GDZKH5?

Now i already upgrade to DZKJ2, so the DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit can work at Galaxy S2 I9100G or not?
edit : using DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit to root didn't work for my phone
i got this link and it seems intersting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1341288

is there any chance to root without usb connection?
doomlord v2 root working great on my i9100G ... anyone got DZKJ2 kernel link/s. Is
it release yet? I'm still on DZKI1 btw ...
rooted my phone using odin. removed the yellow triangle by using odin to flash the cf root kernel and its now gone. But upon flashing the rom using cwm, its going to manual mode. any ideas?

just install KJ2 firmware, i read that it's the best for the I9100G for the moment!
Q : what's the best kernel to have ?
i have MyGKernel installed to have CWM and Root but is there any better choice ?
BTW : i installed juffo's rom which is great for battery drain and offers some ice tools!
thank you so much sir...it worked for me...thanks once again...u r a savior
wow alot malaysian here haha
Sorry , i don`t know if i can just open a thread or if i must have some posts and other things , because i`m new here but i have a quastione :
HOw can i root this device : Samsung galaxy sII GT-I9100
Android version : 2.3.4
Kernel version :2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI4-CL575468 [email protected] 143#2
please if someone can help me please let me know
You know that there is a forum for the galaxy s2?
Anyway, the easiest way is to use CF-root. You'll find it on the forums here. You'll need either Odin or Heimdall to flash the root-kernel.

i have tried DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su and got the above screenshot
can some one plz help me with it.....
thank you
the easiest way ( in my opinion ) is to find your baseband version and down load the corresponding cf root file on itratechs thread and flash it in the PDA section in odin

i am a complete newbie with android so flashing and all is not for me i just need root on my device so that i can install few of the application
As Wezza said, CFRoot is the easiest & most hassle-free root method for SGS2. Takes all of 2 minutes, very remote chance of stuffing your phone up so long as you follow the instructions. By your own admission, you're a 'complete newbie with Android', and IMHO, using a method other than CFRoot to root your phone is just making life unnecessarily complicated for yourself.
Just my (and obviously Wezza's) opinion tho.

Yes, the process is same as for the I9100 version. There are a few threads explaining how to root and flash custom ROMs here. Search and you'll find plenty. If you get stuck somewhere or don't understand, ask here. Good luck

Download Odin.
Download Siyah 4.1.5 kernel.
Plug your phone into the computer.
Put you phone in Download mode.
Put the kernel in PDA.
Flash the kernel.
Congratz! You have root. Plus a brickbug safe and great kernel.

DO NOT follow those instructions.
You have an SPH-D710, which is the Epic 4G Touch.
I don't think that Siyah kernel will work on your phone.
You should go to the Epic 4G Touch forum, as Sun90 states above.
