The GB guide also work for ICS. Or you can always install another ROM which is rooted.
Check the amaze bible thread for the beginners basics post, that should guide you through the rooting process.

You should first ROOT your device, see this:

1 st root ur mobile = that is getting administrator rights
then install custom recovery like clockworkmod

I'm new to the whole Android OS, and I recently bought an Xperia X10 Mini, but unfortunately it runs only Eclair 2.1 which doesn't support some apps I'd like to have, so I want to upgrade it to 4.1.2 but I have no idea how to do it. I can't find a proper tutorial anywhere, and I really don't want to brick my phone, so if please someone can post a nice tutorial it would be really appreciated, thanks in advance.
P.S. I'm sorry if there's another thread about this, I couldn't find it and I can't post in a dev thread because I'm a new member.

Most TUTs are the same for all ROMs.
Here i made one for SEMC Debrand, but you can follow same steps for any JB-ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859114
Instead of GB-kernel, use JB-kernel as described for specific JB-ROM.
You can disregard the part of backup old data in phone if it's synced to a Google Account.

Okay thanks I'll try it this afternoon.
I am trying to find the files and procedures necessary to root my gs2 with android 2.3.6 gingerbread. I also would like to flash a new rom 4.0.5 at the least if not better. I would appreciate any guidance since I am a new user and new to rooting and flashing. I have rooted my Motorola atrix hd but cant figure out how to flash it either. If you could help me with the Samsung gs2 that would be great. Thank you.

Thank you for you answer, it looks useful, but...
Can you, please, provide more detailed guide, since i have no such experience.
What is "boot bootloader" and how to unlock it?

Hi there,
as I'm totally noob on Samsung and I don't know really nothing about their devices - my brother in law gave me his business S3 (GT-I9300) for his vacation with the order to get him the current rom flashed.
Now, as I'm a HTC fanboy this is really pain as I'm currently trying to figure out what is needed to flash a custom rom.
I know an HTC needs to be unlocked/ s-offed/ rooted - but what about a Samsung?
Heard somewhen some words like Kies and Odin and am trying now a noob proof tool named SkipSoft Toolkit
I really lost overview here because all specific Samsung relevant words and explanations are like Alien language to me....
If someone could just point me to the steps I'd follow like
1. Unlock with ____link____
2. Root with
3. Recovery
4. other steps
I'd really appreciate your help!!
