Hello I have a question, I have a Samsung galaxy s2 and I want to root it, but I have XWKJ3 with android: 2.3.5, but I cannot find on the internet how to root the galaxy s2.
So, can anyone help me?
Greets Gerross
Just like any other:
With Odin or Heimdall.
But wait!
What galaxy s2 do you have? What EXACT model number?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA

You need a new internet thousands of posts asking the same question on XDA . Though most are in Q&A section .
FAQS GUIDES CWM &ROOT ROOT YOUR ICS to name but a few .
big question is why do you want to root the phone do you know what root is .

Big question as always is why do you want to root the phone and void warranty ??/

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 ^^

Root it!
Thats the first thing i did the day i got my S2!
Top tip: read.
About two week before I decided to get the SGSII (instead of the HTC Sensation) I had been on here reading as many threads as I could on both phones. Not once did I post asking advise, because after a bit of reading every question was answered.
Hi guys!
So my sgs2 is in ICS 4.0.3 and have the firmware I9100BULP6.
I read a lot of tutorial on how to root but in most of them the firmware is different
Does anybody know a tutorial that will work for sure on my firmware?
If it's necessary other informations ask me please.
Thank you

Root GT-I9100
I have a GT-I9100 and have just plucked up the courage to root it.
I found an article on the AndroidAuthority web site titled:
Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100: How to root Android 4.0.3 firmware XWLP7 and XWLP8
This worked perfectly and allowed me to remove all the Samsung bloatware.

Except GT-I9100G is DIFFERENT to the GT-I9100, and using that procedure will likely brick his phone.
Use the link JJEgan posted to the I9100G sub-forum for this kind of question about your phone
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570377
