Hi, I followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239185 to root my galaxy tab 10.1 and it appeared to go well - got all the confirmation screens etc. (I can't post there yet as I'm a newbie)
However, Root Checker says I'm not rooted. I've installed Superuser but when I try to update SU Binary (I've no idea what this is) as recommended in the other thread, I get "Gaining Root Access: fail!". I followed the guide again but have the same result.
Would much appreciate any advice on what to try next, please explain in simple terms or I may cry. thanks

I'm assuming it's WiFi only device? Have you read thru the entire thread? Check out this thread and see if it applies to you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1742522

Yes wifi only, I did read the thread, not sure if the link applies to me or not.
I'm on 4.0.4 if that makes a difference?
For anyone interested followed a guide on youtube which worked for me.
Can't post link title is
Hi-Tik How TO : Root GALAXY Tab 10.1 (Android 4.0.4)

Hi,
can anyone point me at an updated functional guide, that instructs me how to root the galaxy S II ?
The threads I've found via google are either outdated or missing information.
This is the info om my phone, which I also was unable to find a kernel that matches this version:

Thanks in advance.

Your kernal is KE7
alright, thanks!
It worked first time, however the information is not correct in that guide, it talks about CF-root, but the file attached is Odin.xxxx
But I sorted it out, since I had read other guides talking about that cf-root and odin, so I just put the dots together.
Now am going to explore what a rooted device, can do, that I non-rooted cannot.
Read the Post 2,3 also, not only 1. Nothing is wrong there.

No **** how many people have ask this!!!!!!
So you know it now and use the search on the right!!!!!
I've tried to root my SGS2 with "Unlock Root 2.3" but... Failure, also tried with Super One Click 2.3.3.. but after step 7 was stock.
I searched for 2 day's but found nothing... please do not blame me, i'm not an expert in this domain, help me with a link if i missed to find the answer on my question
I'll assume 2.3.6 is a typo on your part, since it should be 2.3.5, but you can find the CF-root kernel in the relevant thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_KI4-v4.4-CWM4.zip
Make sure you have an I9100 and not some variant before flashing anything though.
Next time, instead of spending two days searching (yeah, right), look for stickies and FAQs, they contain everything you need.

Really.... another one that has no idea of how to search for something... I type in search in google for the galaxy s2 and the first thing that comes up is chainfire's thread with cf root
I hate a flat out liar
US Cellular LTE SG3 - SCHR530, Was build ALK5 on 4.1.1 and was rooted (using free version mskip's Toolkit) and all was fully functional. When the 4.1.2 android update became available for my phone, I performed manual 4.1.2 download/installation, which completed successfully. Build AMD4.
Donated/upgraded to mskip's pro version Toolkit. Began the re-root - exact build wasn't listed, picked closest, completed process, phone was rooted BUT lost all access to camera and any apps that use camera failed due to camera fail. Unable to find a cure for this particular issue, I used the toolkit to unroot my phone. I RE-applied Samsung android update 4.1.2 and have remained UNrooted until last night.
Ran the Toolkit, toolkit auto-updated to the latest version released (says 4.1.2 build AMD4 is supported) , prepared to root phoneagain I find this exact build (AMD4) is not listed, so picked closest one, completed process, phone is rooted..... BUT AGAIN I have no use of camera!
How can I fix this and stay rooted? Or do I resign myself to not having a rooted phone in order to keep functionality of my camera?
Thanks for any helpful insights to this issue.

I am having the exact same issue, I need my camera and my root, might have to go back to 4.1.1 to get it though.
I'm also on a donated toolkit, please post if you find a solution.
This is the i9300 forum, you are in the wrong place. Also have you tried contacting mskip to raise a query?

Thank you for your acknowledgement, I truly appreciate it.
I did know this is the i9300 forum, and I have tried to contact mskip a number of times, including directly in the thread that the most recent toolkit was announced. Apparently I cannot post in there (?) due to not having enough posts and not being a developer; at least that's what the "error message" is when I tried. And then the advisement that I must post questions in a Q & A. I guess I'm lost!
In any case, I did several searches for the camera issue combined with rooting and I ended up in this forum. I would greatly appreciate it if you could steer me towards the proper place to post - I haven't seen a specific forum for the US Cellular model SG3, and I'll admit - I'm greatly out of practice these days in my forum using skills.

Still no love for my issue, and almost a month later, still the choice of root & no cameras or cameras & no root :crying:
Toolkit support says US CELLULAR MODEL LTE[SCH-R530] support should use AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III forum, can anyone verify for me if that is the correct place to try to post about my problem? Thank you very much!

It does seem that most of that info is out of date and there is no real home for the US Cellular LTE Samsung Galaxy S3, and as far as the other methods, I am just not that savvy - the automated toolkit is slick, but I appreciate your suggestions. Thank you.
Hello everybody!
As I am well aware this topic might have already been discussed, I also apologize for posting this again.
I am not too experienced with rooting, flashing phones and so on. All I look for is to install supersu on a Galaxy S2 (gt-i9100) so that I can move a few apps in system.
Browsing for a few hours I have found a few one-click methods and also a lot of complicated ones. The thing is I do not need to flash the ROM or change the kernel, I just want supersu to work, that's it!
So far, the link I have found the closest to my requirement is the one on ibitimes link that says it's using the framawork app.
The guy who posted this says that it is taken from this site but I do not seem to find details on it.
I do not necessarily want to use it especially, I just look for a similar method. Please give me some suggestions if you could.
Best regards,
Vlad Nitu
Hello, as the title says i'm a total newbie and need help.
I have a Huawei G750-T20 , running Android 4.2.2 with EmotionUI2.0.
Basically i want to get rid of the Emui and i need an idiot proof guide on the simplest way to do it.
From what i understood i need to root and then flash a different rom, but how exactly do i do that?
If such a noob friendly guide already exists, please point me in the right direction, if not then someone please help me out.

Hi, unfortunately, I can't find any information about a working root method for this device on XDA.

I found an external post with instructions on rooting it with Root Genius.
Assuming it will work and it won't brick my phone, what would be the following steps?
