If that model is right (GT-I9001), and the baseband (i9001 BUKP1) is also right, then you don't have a Galaxy S2.
GT-I9001 is the model number for the Galaxy S Plus.
EDIT to add: the Galaxy S Plus doesn't have it's own forum, but does have a sub-forum in the Galaxy S forum.

Dude, why are you still in the I9100 forums?
Go to the I9001 forum I linked for you. Before you accidentally install something that will permanently break your phone.
EDIT to add: Again, since it's a small device variation of the i9000, there's not a dedicated Q&A section for your device, but there IS a Q&A thread for the I9001 that is located in the I9000 Q&A forum.

As a wise colleague of mine said a few posts above yours, "You need to read, a lot". As per my post above read the section that says "Help ! Which file do I use ?' carefully/slowly/several times. The information that will enable you to chose the 'correct' kernel is in that section.
One thing you need to check tho. Check the sticker on the phone chassis under the battery & make sure you have an I9100 or I9100T. Once you're sure the info I've referred you to in the CFRoot thread makes choosing the right kernel simple.
If you still can't work out which kernel to use, you're not reading carefully/closely enough & I'd reconsider doing anything to your phone if I were you. People who don't pay attention or rush blindly into things/take shortcuts tend to end up with borked phones.

1) Remove your email address from your post; do you want to be spammed mercilessly ?
2) If you can't find the thread stickied 2nd from the top of Q&A which has the information you need, I'm not sure you should be messing with your phone in the first place. There's a fair chance it's going to end up busted.

Be careful with the kernel you flash, be sure its compatible with your device. (google is always a good friend)
About "how to" topics, I suggest you do a search on the "general" and "q&a" categories, there I'm pretty sure you'll find a variety of guides and tutorials for new users.
Best kernel and rom don't exist, its all about what you need and what you're prepared to sacrifice/do in your device. Some roms have bugs that other don't, some are faster but drain more battery, and so on. So try them yourself (remember what I said about compatibility, and also do backups).
I hope this helps.
hi tnx for the reply are you also using a not international version??
No, I'm using the S2 international version, but in the past i've had other regional models (other devices, not exactly s2). So I know what I say when I say to check compatibility first and do backup.
Devices may differ from hardware to partition sizes and other stuff. Try googling your actual kernel or find out what rom is that, its a start.

Your device is already converted to international version from the info you posted.
Please post the screenshot of your phone information .
Goto Settings > About phone, take the screenshot and post it here.

Samsung I9100 Root + CWM Safe

Dear all,
I'm sorry in advance if the post exist but I'm completely lost with the process of rooting and install cwm and new roms on my Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100. I searched a lot how to do it and in the safer way as I don't want to brick my phone.
My phone version is:
PDA: I9100XWKE7
PHONE: I9100JCKE1
CSC: I9100JCKE1
Android Version : 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9100JCKE1
Kernel Version: 2.6.37.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725 [email protected]#2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
Please help I would like to root and install Jellybean ROM 4.1.2 or 4.2 either Official or Custom on it. If needed install CWM
Thanks in advance for your help
P.S I think it is the International I9100
Please Help...

Doomlord oneclick is tge safest way.
Framaroot app could also work as it's an exynos exploit.
Above poster, stick to xda threads.

need help identify phone

Got a GT-I9100 According to phone info in settings.
I vaguely remember something about a S2 galaxy plus? I think this might be one?
Would I need to look for a rom on the normal S2 i9100 android dev forum?
Or on the s2 i9100 G android forum version?

Download and install this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en
Look at the phone model to confirm if the settings is telling the correct thing
