Your post makes no sense .
You cannot flash firmware without a PC .
Hold buttons as described do you mean via CWM recovery ???

Hmm.. That is a tricky question.. Why don't you use Google search..
Anyways head over to the original android development section.. Find the cf root thread and use it..
You will need a PC though..

You can flash it directly via Odin. Just download the official ics from intratech thread and flash it via odin

I cant see you signature on the xda app is it the one where you have to download cwm.zip and another. I cant get into cwm with that one. It says go in recovery. But how to get into that without cwm :s
Maybe you could write me a small tut? :$

Here's the link from his signature. Contains all the info you need.
Yes, you need to be in stock recovery to root without a pc. No other way. Why can't you go into stock recovery

Try Rom Manager from Play Store.
You can boot in touch recovery by turning off your phone, then press and hold power button + home button + volume up
Wait until the recovery shows up and release your fingers.
Edit: Or just reflash cwm recovery using cwm apps if you want to use cwm apps for backup/restore

As I suggested earlier, use ROM Manager.
ROM manager is not the way I would suggest as it doesn't support many phones and is known to have caused a few bricks! Best bet Google! Find your recovery flash it thru the one u have if possible, or do it thru bootload USB

This.
Don't use ROM manager to flash anything.
@OP just flash cf-root, that installs recovery when you flash it

I have unzipped the cf-CWM file and flashed it in mobile Odin..
Now i am back on track..

There's a chance of it going wrong and bricking your phone, a lot of people will tell you not to use ROM manager to flash anything, downloading stuff with it is fine, but flash through cwm.
Better to be safe than sorry.

And that it is more laggy compared to the ICS rom
