Hi
If you're on a stock samsung ROM or a Custom Samsung based ROM..(And rooted).. Try using the Full screen caller mod on this post.. Be sure to check your Firmware version and do a backup

Yes just download the stock firmware that you're on now and flash it with Odin.
I use that full screen caller id and it works perfect for me...............

Just use the app above, or follow one of the many guides to root and get a custom kernel, then you can flash custom roms. I don't have access to a PC so I can't help but its so easy to root these phones you shouldn't need it.

The kernal I would recommend is Entropy512's for the SGP. The tutorial on there is very easy and very stright foward so you shouldn't have any problems at all. I would recommand the rom I'm currently using but the dev removed the link because he is updating the rom.

Nothing in particular's bad w/r/t the stock ROM. It just isn't most people's cup of tea. Chip's ROM is pretty cool, though I'm limited in experience (onyl stock, Eryigit, and Chip's ROMs, to date) What I like about Chip's ROM is that it's up to date and is constantly in development, the style of it (ICS-theme), and that most of the bloatware's been removed. It's very operational and customizable. Plus, many of the "hacks" that he's introduced via init.d or elsewhere (courtesy of St. Matis; I've added a few of my own and deleted a few). He's edited the framework (or gathered it from another source) to get rid of that pesky "Cell Standby" thing that shows up as a battery drain (functionally irrelevant, but annoying nonetheless) and included a number of apps as stock that many here would install anyway. Look at the thread yourself and check its features

Disinstall all driver, make a clean install of the USB driver 1.5.6, install ODIN 1.8 and thats all...You have all you need to write a custom kernel from the stock one.
In Downolad mode the player is visible just from ODIN...i remember...
Otherwise, after installing the c.kernel, from the device recovery you can do all (c.rom-stock-kernel.zip addon).

Thanks for the kind words and using my walk through! Glad it was helpful! :laugh:
I want to root my Galaxy S2 and have ICS or Jelly Bean or the best possible. I have been reading guides and tutorials on how to do this. I don't want anything to go wrong or brick my phone. One guide said I should get a new kernal, custom rom and a new OS to maximise the performance possible. All of this is getting very confusing for me and I don't know which direction to go. There are also two popular methods of rooting a Galaxy S2 which is using super one click or flashing an insecure kernal and then rooting the s2 using odin. I don't know which method is better but I would like to keep all the data in my apps which can be done using titanium backup. I would also like to have clockwork mod just incase anything goes wrong. The guides also said the best custom rom is by cyanagenmod. Could someone push me in the right direction and tell me what I should do and what I shouldn't.

What ROM are you on right now. Could you please attach a screenshot of the about section of your phone so that its easier to hand you the links to correct kernel? Briefly, what you need to do is to search the cf root thread by chainfire, get the cf root closest to your kernel version, and flash it to gain root access. What exactly would you like? Stock or custom rom? ICS or JB?

I got a stock rom right now. Exactly how it was when I first got the phone. Haven't updated. What is cf root? And can't I root using super one click? I want the jelly bean if that's the best I can get without any bugs or problems.

once u root u can backup ur apps with titanium backup and then after flashin a different rom u can restore it
So should I root using super one click?

Go to www.sammobile.com download a stock firmware, flash through Odin, reroot.

As was pointed out, it's always best to give a more descriptive title than 'Please Help'. I see you've got a few people helping you, good luck with it - it's usually a step you missed (I've done the same). Always read up and understand what you're doing before you do it, saves brain cells

u have very less or even outdated rooting option on GB, better to upgrade ur phone to stock ICS v4.0.3 (dwnld the stock ICS v4.0.3 firmware pertained to ur region on www.sammobile.com and flash the same using 'ODIN'.
After successfull flash and booting of ICS on ur phone, u can use Siyah kernel( .tar file for ODIN) to root ur phone by flashing the same vide ODIN
U might have corrupted ur install. If there is no VERY important data, i would recommend you to wipe data/cache and download a new STOCK rom and install using odin hope this helps. P.S. Only use odin and stock rom it has less chances of bricking the phone.
