Flash any kernel from original development section, then your mobile will be rooted. If you want stock kernel with root then flash CF-Root, make sure you choose correct version which has xxlpq.
That is very old ICS firmware better try some other ICs firmware like LPG

Actually official Indian release is XWLP7 not XXLPQ. It is available over at sammobile. LP7 is much better than LPQ.

To start with, go with the CF -root kernel which has the same version of the firmware that you want to flash. The latest firmware available is KH3 and so you choose the CF root KH3 kernel. If you want to use the latest firmware specific to your region then check the stock firmware thread by 'intratech'.

You need a KE4 kernel from CF-root. If you can't find KE4 grab the closest KE# one that you can.
You do not want KH3

He's not on a KH3 rom, so why should he get a KH3 kernel?
why I dont want KH3? is it corrupt or something?

read the post properly. I gave him a generic answer with KH3 as example.

No. what he said was to root a KE4 kernel you need a rooted KE4 kernel? that is right.
I gave a generic answer and mentioned KH3 as example since it is the latest firmware.

Hi there,
- Have you tried to get to the Download mode ?
- Have you a JIG ?
- If so, just use ODIN to flash a proper stock ROM.
Yes, pick the laest official ROM from here for ODIN flash : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487

Why did you use a method from outside of XDA? When you posted here, I responded with google searches that would have only returned results from XDA. The first result for the root search (for me, anyway) should have been the root method for ICS that didn't involve flashing anything with Odin.

*#1234# does not work ?!
Ok, usually the PDA is the same as the Build version/number => DXLP9.
Maybe you have to reflash the kernel or the whole ROM to get the *#1234# work again on your phone.
Dial codes will only work only stock Samsung ROM's. With it being “build 4.2," I'll assume it isn't a stock Samsung ROM. Flash one if you wish to use these dial codes.

You're running Slim ICS; which is NOT a Samsung stock firmware. So technically, you don't actually have a PDA version.
Anyone else this this looks unusual?

Not really. Looks like a Gingerbread modem was flashed to an ICS firmware. That is only unusual in that it would never come like that packaged from Samsung. But it still should work just fine. Modems are cross compatible between Gingerbread and ICS.

Only leaked Sammy 4.0.4 kernels have eMMC_CAP_ERASE enabled.
4.0.3 not. Also custom kernels are safe (except CF-Root for 4.0.4).

You are right.
So use stock 4.0.4 with no wipe or completely omit 4.0.4 until new update without bug.

Hi, I just wanna be sure. I currently have:
4.0.3
Baseband: I9100UHLPG
Kernel: 3.0.15-i9100xxlpq-cl223505 [email protected] #3
Build Number: IML74K.UHLPQ
I'm not sure whether my Kernel is 4.0.3 or 4.0.4? Can you please let me know?
Also, what if I'll do a factory reset on the phone itself (doing it the normal way) Settings>Backup and Reset? will it have the same effect as doing a wipe via CWM? Thank you.
You are on 4.0.3 then whats the problem? Dude? ^^

A good alternative is the Siyah kernel, which provides root along with a lot of features.
If you don't want to flash a custom kernel, then what jokeys linked is the way
