PLEASE DON'T USE THIS!!!!! Using Cfroot makes your phone susceptible to the eMMC super brick bug! So flash something like siyah kernel to keep your phone safe.

I'd advise you to use 4.1.5 as version 5 is still in beta. good luck
Please don't post in the development section, if it's not related to development.

PhilZ-CWM6 stock kernel, with root, Busybox, SuperSU app and safe from eMMC brickbug.
Flash it in stock recovery.

Hey there,
After 2 years I've decided to root my SGS2, Ive been through flashing with nokia's and that kind of things. However, Im a total NOOB in android rooting.
My problem is the following:
I've updated my phone to ICS 4.0.4 (biggest mistake of my life).
Now I've searched everywhere to find a root manual for my Firmware-version, but I keep coming up with german sites (I'm Dutch).
Google translate does its work like a piece of sh**, so I've lost all of my faith.
After some crappy translating, I read something about a hard-brick of this firmware.
My question is: Wich version is safe to root on my phone?!
Info about my phone:
Carrier: T-mobile
Model: GT-I9100 (ofcourse)
Android version: 4.0.4
Baseband version: I9100BOLP7
Kernel version: 3.0.15-1056084 [email protected] #3 SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 24 17:36:36 KST 2012
Build number: IMM76D.BOLPM
I hope my question isn't a dumb one, if so, I'm sorry!

Flashing Siyah will also root your phone. Just make sure you use the correct version of Siyah for your model and version of Android.
You do not need to root your phone to flash Siyah kernel.
When you flash Siyah you will get root. Here's what you do:
#download siyah kernel
#Boot phone to download mode
#Open Odin and connect phone
#put siyah kernel .Tar file in PDA section of Odin.
#click start.
It is extremely difficult to brick your phone flashing a kernel in Odin.
Good luck

Just flash Siyah kernel or Speedmod kernel via odin for safety purpose.
visit this thread for the reason why I'm recommending a custom kernel

Hi,
Flash PhilZ-CWM6 kernel from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?k9j877v7k3z7sr8. Go to stock recovery (turn off the phone and press at the same time volume up + home + power) and use flash update zip option. Regards

If you want to be 100% safe, don't screw with it, and just use your phone normally.
If you flash a safe kernel you'll avoid brick bug.........

look into the siyah kernel. which is what most people used to root there 4.0.4. once you flashed the kernel and have clock work mod, flash a custom jb. be careful.
I've been reading for the past hours, seen dozens of threads but bit confused on how to root my phone. Or actually, what method to follow to root my phone. Could someone point me to the correct thread? I've rooted a phone before but that was my G1, got no experience with Odin.

Get a kernel (siyah or cf-root) that works with your rom. Put the tar file in the PDA section in odin and flash.

As you are on 4.0.4 so dont do any kind of wipe in stock kernel. it might have brickbug.... after installing custom kernel you can do wipe if you want...
Should I use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31310851 with XWLPW-DBT ICS 4.0.4 ?
