Try CF Root from this thread ... it just roots your device without changing kernel/platform

Questions (Rooting)

Hey guys, i'm new to the XDA-Forums but i'll have some questions.
I'm about to root my Samsung Galaxy S2 Android( 4.0.3)
baseband: I9100XXLPW
and Kernel is XWLPD
I would like to root with this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125414
I've readen this and understand everything expect some things..
If i have rooted my phone, can i still update when (a new update) 4.0.4 has released?
AND what apps does i get if i rooted? (because i only want superuser)
Well that's all i want to now,
*bump*
somebody??!
Rooting will install Superuser during the process. If you're rooted and get an OTA update and install it, you'll likely lose root. So, you just have to re-root...

I did everything, got the superuser and i did run root check but it says sorry i don't have root
realy weird
what should i do!?
i flashed again to unsecure kernel
should i start s2 root again and click root device or unroot and then root ?

Did you reboot after rooting? If you have the Superuser application from the rooting process I'd be led to believe it worked.

Yes, but what weird is it didn't ask for permission
so i think it failed with rooting ..
what should i do click again on root device or unroot and then root ?

Root Check didn't ask for permission, or which app are you referring to? You could try to re-root, won't do any harm. You followed all 11 steps in the rooting guide exactly?

[Q] Root new Official firmware for Xperia SP? Build 12.1.A.0.266

I am rooted when i update my 4.1 to 4.3 after 4.3 update is done super su tells "There is no Su binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!, If you just upgraded to android 4.3 you need to manually re root consult the relevant forums for your device!.
You can try DooMLords method again and see what happens? I don't know if that'll make you have to flash a whole new firmware again though

you do not need a custom recovery and with root not much can go wrong,
Rooting does not affect your bootloader
rooting does however affect your warrenty, removing of root does restore the status of your warenty since the modifacations no longer exist
you do not need recovery
your bootloader is locked from being manufactured, its only unlocked if someone unlocks it which sony wouldent do as its used to monitor if someone has modified their device but root exploits is a way around this

if you uninstall root from within the supersu app your warrenty is no longer voided because there is no evidance of root being there
if you modified your system you can install a FTF using flashtool to get totaly stock

[URGENT] Device status CUSTOM and Problem with Root Alpha G850Y

Hey guys.. Bought a new Sam Galaxy Alpha G-850Y and tried rooting it using Framaroot, Towelroot and Kingroot. Framaroot and Towelroot don't support mh device and when i tried king root it Failed at 70%(rebooted once at 53%). Didnt worry then now tried updating my software by OTA. It says Your Device has been modified . Checked SystemStatus it is custom. Then checked root by various root check apps The Results were Different . see screenshots attached. One says not rooted one says not properly rooted and one says Rooted. Now What to do... titanium backup and other apps which require root permision say I dont have root. Trued downloading Supersu but Didnt open properly. As i think m not rooted. Now i am thinking to properly root it and then unroot it.
I want my device status to official. How to??
Or else I want it properly rooted dont wanna get stuck in middle. Please help
NOW heard CF Autoroot works well but WILL IT TRIP KNOX?? [major question]
Any Other ways.. any help is wholeheartedly appreciated.. ?
If you want ro revert back to stock status then search for the proper country firmware on sammobile.com for your version of alpha and flash it with odin. It will erase all errors snd bring the phone to the fresh os.
