use this one bro http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679778 ..can apply to all stock ICS rom atm...no need to start a new topic on this..please use the Q&A section section here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585413 or join this facebook group http://www.facebook.com/groups/203703389724143/ for this kind of question...happy rooting...

But take care !
Not about rooting risks, but about the roms that you want flash (if you want to flash an other rom a day...) You have an I9100 --> G <-- So most of roms are not working on your phone ! You need to find specifics roms for G version

[Q] Which insecure kernel is required?

I took a screenshot of my "About Phone" page but the forum wont let me post it because I'm still a new user.
So I'll just write it ALL here:
___________________________
Model number
GT-I9100
___________________________
Android version
4.0.4
___________________________
Baseband Version
I9100JHLPC
___________________________
Kernel version
3.0.15-1087786

Build number
IMM76D.JHLPC
I want to root my device. In order to do so, I've been told to select the appropriate Kernel version's file (along with odin, as recommended by many guides here), but as you can see, the Kernel version doesn't show any last three characters which are listed. (like LQ7, or LP4)
I've found a file called "Kernel_I9100BULPC_INSECURE.zip".
Should I use it because the last three characters are identical to the baseband and build number (but not kernel)?
If not, which should I use to ensure that I won't brick my phone?
Thank you, and sorry for the long question.
Just realized that I posted this in the wrong sub-forum.. Is it possible to move this thread to the Galaxy S II I9100 Q&A somehow?
Just use Siyah 4.1.5
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app

[Q] unsure about which kernel

Hi all,
Hope someone can help me, since google search did not help me. I am confused as to which kernel my device has? I have flashed it a few times but reverted back to stock ROM. Now i fancy flashing again and once again the kernel question comes up. which one do i need.
So started by following a guide on how to roote my device and it mentioned this link with insecure kernels. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
however i am not sure which one i can use. tried this one GT-I9100_XWKL1_insecure but it caused my phone not to boot.
Looking at Settings > About Device > Kernel i saw somewthing similar to below
Baseband version = I9100XXMS2
Kernel version = 3.0.31 - 1156082

Build number = JZO54K.I9100XWLSS (this bit not the same)
Could someone help me understand this? Which ones can be used on my device?
The last 5 letters. That's your kernel. However...
That root method is rather obsolete; stickied post 4th from the top of Q&A has a quick/easy method you can use.

[Q] Rooting an S2 - Can someone check I have this correct?

I am looking to root my UK Galaxy S2 with the best backup/recovery options included;
Code:
Model number GT-l9100
Android version 4.1.2
Baseband version l9100XXMS
Kernel Version: 3.0.31 – 1211311 [email protected] #3. SMP PREEMPT Thu May 16 10:05:20. KST 2013
Build number JZO54K.l9100XWLSW)
From a few days worth of reading it seems as if the best option is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270 (PhilZ-cwm6 - Safe Stock Based Kernel Featuring PhilZ Touch 6
(Enhanced CWM v6.x, now with exFat+ext4+NTFS support)
The part I would like someone to confirm for me if possible is that the correct file to do this for my specific phone/kernel/etc would be the PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSW-XEU-5.06.1-signed.zip found here http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=17703#files
I believe it to be that based on the "LSW" in the build number - have I deduced this correctly..?
Thought it would be best to try to get it confirmed as most of the guides refer to the kernel code (XWLPX-NEE in that example) not `build number` when they talk about it. Still picking my way through the terminology.
Correct.
It is sufficient that flash the root for your build, nothing more. However i think it is correct
