Siyah kernel is good, other kernels are good too. CM10 is good other ROMs are good too.
You need to try them yourself. If you don't like them, flash another kernel/ROM.
Read the rules before posting.

CM10 is a ROM.
Siyah is a kernel.
There is no logical way to compare them against each other.

Why do you want to flash CF-ROOT?
Have you seen this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756242

There are some safe kernels you can flash over stock that will root without the brick bug. Using Odin you can flash siyah, neek, speed mod and probably others without breaking your new phone!

In addition to what Sun90 said, Dorimanx and Dream kernels are both compatible with JB, and also support dualbooting too

[Q] [HELP] Did something STUPID

Hey guys, I have a S2 (4.0.3) which was rooted. So I'd got a update today which said it was a small change so i thought it would be 4.0.3 still with root access.. Well after i updated my android went to 4.0.4 and my rooted as went gone!
So my question is how can I root my phone again or delete SuperSU
My kernel version: 3.0.15-1056084 [email protected] #3
and baseband: I9100XXLQ6
I coudn't find my kernel to re-root it I used the root app from: lyriquidperfection
Stop asking silly questions that have already been asked over and over again. If you want an answer use the search button, plenty of topics on how to root.
You should also watch this XDA video...

Read and follow my instructions.
If you have any questions, post them in that thread
Well, my phone is just working as it does so not bricked. But the problem is i can't root because i can't find a insecure or secure kernel for my phone ..
If you want root, I suggest you to flash Siyah Kernel.

Allright, allright just to make it clear..
I'm about to Root my S2 (4.0.4) included with superSU but no root. I'm using this way: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
But got just one question. After i installed cwm and rooted it, am i available to unroot by just going on SuperSU and choosing unrooting option?
Because i don't want a root anymore on 4.0.4 ..

If you don't want to root anymore then don't ROOT at all.
If you want to root, simply flash a custom kernel via Odin. I recommend Speedmod or Siyah kernel

I don't want but the problem is i can't delete the SuperSU app which is in system that's why i need to root to delete the .apk
But just one more question i know i'm kinda noob haha.. But if i flashed a custom kernel like Siyah (and deleted the .apk) am i available to update upcoming updates no problems after that right?

1. If you flash a custom kernel, you will still have root but you will be 100 % safe from the brick bug. You can still get updates
2. If you are only rooted, it will not brick your device. So there is no need to unroot
3. The most important thing is:
DON'T USE CWM RECOVERY , unless you've flashed a custom kernel

First, Use the method. When you are done with rooting, let me know.
Don't attempt to do anything else, until i tell you to do so

there is no chance of bricking. When you are done, don't do anything in recovery, just report here.
Method 1 should work fine.
Alternatively, if you are so scared, just flash a custom kernel via Odin
