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 ^^

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?

Just like any other:
With Odin or Heimdall.
But wait!
What galaxy s2 do you have? What EXACT model number?

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 .

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

Dear all,
I'm sorry in advance if the post exist but I'm completely lost with the process of rooting and install cwm and new roms on my Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100. I searched a lot how to do it and in the safer way as I don't want to brick my phone.
My phone version is:
PDA: I9100XWKE7
PHONE: I9100JCKE1
CSC: I9100JCKE1
Android Version : 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9100JCKE1
Kernel Version: 2.6.37.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725 [email protected]#2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
Please help I would like to root and install Jellybean ROM 4.1.2 or 4.2 either Official or Custom on it. If needed install CWM
Thanks in advance for your help
P.S I think it is the International I9100
Please Help...

Doomlord oneclick is tge safest way.
Framaroot app could also work as it's an exynos exploit.
Above poster, stick to xda threads.

Did you even read the thread ?
Follow the instructions in the thread to upgrade your phone to stock JB, root it, download your custom rom of choice, follow the instructions on the first page of the thread devoted to that rom in order to flash it.
