Good evening all ..... I updated my s2 using kies update has gone well, now on 4.0.3
but now i do not have SU access :/ really confused to why this is any help?
Hello haven't used kies for ages now but if you've upgraded on their you have probably downloaded and installed a whole new rom thus you have lost root access. Look up on the forum the best way to root your current rom. All the best.

kies installs stock rooms with the kernals, you need to reroot your phone or use a rooted kernal like siyah which will root your phone.

Hey,
What's happened is now you've upgraded you have stock kernel without root access. Simply flash a custom kernel or CF-Root kernel and you'll have root access again
Hi again
just use method 1 from my signature guide.

Hey, I have just rooted my Galaxy S2 via flashing superuser and cwm recovery via stock recovery. When I boot back into recovery, CWM isn't there. It simply won't stick. Is there any way to permanently install cwm. I am on ICS 4.0.3, with stock kernel with root access. I would appreciate your help as I want to try some custom roms. Cheers and Thanks!

Welcome to the cwm sgs2 world you will need to flash a kernel that has cwm included as its builtin. In other words the recovery shairs its partition with the boot.img that contains the kernel. Its not separate like HTC etc.

Can I do this through stock recovery by flashing the temporary CWM again and flashing the kernel? I would like to make a backup of my stock firmware and kernel. How would I do that? Or do I need Odin? Sorry I am new to this. All help is appreciated? Thanks!
Flash CF-Root/Siyah or other already rooted kernel through Odin. Then use Triangle Away app and enjoy

Is it possible to backup my current setup before I attempt this? Thanks. My model is the i9100m, so how would I find the CF root kernel

Yes, with CF-Root you will have permanent CWM. Search forum for proper file for your model.

I recently had my phone reset by my carrier because of some major problems with MMS.
They flashed a bloated i9100UHLPP on my phone and my search for a CF-root (or any root option for that matter) has not yielded any good results.
I lost ALL my contacts and am pretty much going crazy right now.
Is there a root out yet? Can I use another root from a similar firmware?
Thanks in advance!
Use method 1 from 1st guide in my signature. No need for CF-Root.

Hi! I've got a problem with my new Black S3, I just got it today and I immediately upgraded to Jelly Bean 4.1.1. After a successful update, I tried rooting, Odin displays a PASS but after rebooting, my S3 is not root. No superSU icon or CWM icon. Is there a problem rooting the Black S3? or is the Jelly Bean 4.1.1 cannot be rooted yet? I'm using the CF-Root by Chainfire. \
My sister's S3 is the Pebble Blue one, I rooted it when it was still on ICS 4.0.4 then when I updated it to JB 4.1.1, I just re-rooted it using the same method above, using ODIN and CF-Root by Chainfire and I succeeded in rooting it.
Is it required to root the S3 on ICS first then upgrade to JB? Please help me on this.
Thanks!
Somebody mentioned not auto-starting after flash and manually going into recovery to trigger installation.
Uncheck the auto restart box and flash, then turn phone off and go into recovery

What will I do after going into recovery? What files should I install in-order to root? Up until now I've been using CF-Root by Chainfire because it already has the SuperSU and CWM installed automatically.
Please advise. Thanks!
Use CF root it works on JB .

I've been using this "CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4" by Chainfire. Now it doesn't work on my new Black S3.

Hello everybody,
my gt-i9100 will receive (short-run hopefully) the update to jelly bean but i have a couple of questions to avoid trouble.
At this time i have ics 4.0.3 official with root and modified recovery (not CWM). I have some root apps installed as "system app" like Android Lost, xposed framework and xposed tweakbox. I know the update will erase all my data (full update not value pack) but there will be problems installing this update with these root apps pre isntalled?
Thanks to all :cyclops:
It should cause any problems as the rom will erase all user apps and root.
What method are you planning to use to upgrade.
Kies or doing yourself through Odin.
As a precaution you could do a factoery reset before connecting to kies or flashing with odin. That way there will be no problems with stray aps.
i think i will use kies.
so i will not have issues having a custom recovery?
after upadte i must root again the device, right? if yes wich root use?

If I remember correctly, a few months ago there was a small update, it goes well but I had to root again the device, so how should I proceed to upgrade now?

So my S2 died the other day and I went to buy a i9300. Now I've been searching about S3 rooting and I've found conflicting info on this.
So when I first rooted my old S2 I did it with a temporary CWM that disapeared ofter reboot stayed in stock with stock kernel and kies was able to update my firmwsre without deleting root. I actualy updated from 2.3.5 to ICS via kies without removing root or loosing it after.
I was wondering if the same could be done with the i9300 I want to remain stock for now and don't want to replace stock recovery with CWM. Is there a temporary CWM for S3 so I can push the SU binary to system part without flashing anything over stock?

I did try the search button. The only thing i found was someone talking about the new recovery in S3 only flashing signed packages from samsung or something like that.
Thats why i opened a new thread to see if someone had some new info on it.

CF-AUTO ROOT. Installs only the SuperSU app. Does not install custom recovery. Dunno about updates, though. I think it supports OTA.

Use CF Auto Root from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273 Download Odin and the CF auto root for your phone all instructions are on this thread
You can still update via Kies as long as everything is kept stock even though its rooted but you wont get any OTA updates that wont work

Thanks. So that method everything stays stock including recovery and o xan still use kies. Will a kies update erase root or will it be like with the s2 where the root sticks after the update?

Yes the update will remove root but after update simply flash root with odin again, only takes a few minutes
