If you are on ICS version,
this is not an app but, many versions of stock ICS rom have been rooted with this method, you can read the thread and try : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
Ok so how about gingerbreak app. ??

As far as I know, gingerbreak has very rarely worked on the SGS2. Definitely doesn't work on ICS, as the name indicates.
Only 99% certain, here are 150 pages to confirm/refute...
ZacQ8's link is the only non-pc root method available - 99.99% sure about that.
Should be more popular because of that, IMO (said the man who doesn't use ICS...)
few people have posted that they sucessfully rooted their S2 through gingerbreak.. Only if you extract files in right folder...and also i am not on ICS till now.

Just use the method posted by @ZACQ8. It takes only few minutes, it's secure and works fine. That CWM "live" version can even do backups, restores and etc.
We really need apps like "universal androot'" for galaxy s2 .. I just rooted my motorola droid through this app its so simple and easy...just a one click away no need to get in to recovery mode.i hope someone is working on a similer app like this for s2 ..

Hey guyz !
I got my cell back before 8~9 days ago from service centre. So i have start from rooting.
Can i know how can i root my cell without using computer ?

Gingerbreak works on 2.3.3 or less but only gb. If higher you need comp. Universal androot or z4root. Works on 2.2.1. Or less. If u got 2.2.2 u need comp. If you got 2.3.4 you need comp. Go to settings-about this phone-android version. Hope this helps bud.

Neither of these is on market. Google either gingerbreak apk or universal androot apk. I got both of these this way and its on the first search page.

You got access to a comp for like a half hour? Don't take longer than that.

Its 2.3.3 ! No no comp. Access till 13-15 june
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Don't think it can be done without a computer. The known methods are this one using SuperOneClick and this Unlockroot site which some say works.

XDA Developers forum no root we don't exist .
All this reading somewhere is often false information .

Unroot without trace is possible. Hell, nothing is impossible with GS3

So long as you reset the flash counter and flash a factory firmware they can't know.

If you are okay with Apex launcher, use it. It supports wallpaper scrolling without root.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
the root is permanent. lately we have been replacing the 6th bin file during kdz actual flashing process. this bin file i guess contains super su and necessary files for root. markolino is another member who has created cm9 for locked bootloader l9 p760 ask him as well how he got around this block.
Im permanent root but i know people wich have the temporal
