Hello guys,
i have searched around forums about rooting the S2 and encountered alot, but I still have my fears as none of them was specifically for the version I have, detailed below. Please give me some links regarding this version because I dont want to loose my phone
and yes, I am an intermediate computer user. So I will understand most of the terms anyway. Thanks.
Model: GT-I9100
Android Version: 2.3.5
Baseband: I9100BUKI1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 [email protected] #2
Build: GINGERBREAD.BUKJ3
Thanks guys
Ive no time to search properly but youd be better updating to 4.0.3 for your region etc then root from there.

NB: Am new on Android device.
NB: is it possible to get the original rom by unrooting my sgs 2 by doomlord unrooting toolkit ?
Learn how to use Odin
get ROM from checkfus downloader or sammobile.com
Pick lp7 ROM skip lp9.
You can flash any ROM if you got i9100, say UK lp7.
Flash using Odin.

Thanks for reply,
I know how to use odin but the problem is lot of fermware and other information like baseband here is where I get confused.
So i dont know which fermware I should use provide I stay in Tanzania.

Doesn't matter were you are...
Get a whole package and flash.
Lp7 UK ics
Dxlp9 Singapore ics
Both stock roms work fine. Personally I say go for lp7 UK.
After that learn how to use cfroot kernel to get root access.

Thanks for that.
Can you give me that link for lp7.
I salute you.

Hi,
I know i am a bit stupid coz im no expert in these things. I would really appreciate if someone would guide me step by step how root my phone and install CM9 ICS on my phone
I tried searching but i just cannot find a phone with the exact specs and software like mine and i am worried if i might brick my phone.
Do i need an SD card to so this?
This is my phone info:
Model Number: GT-I9100P
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: I9100PBVKL2
Kernel Version: [email protected] #2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.BVKL2
and bdw, my phone is an unlocked phone from Orange
All the information you need is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419102
If you can't manage with that, don't flash CM9 on your device. Also, flashing CM9 is likely to remove your phone's NFC functionality.
Thanks alot for the info
What is NFC? And what will happen if my phone fails to install cm9?
Sent from my GT-I9100P using xda app-developers app
Near Field Communication - data exchange technology, with maximum speed 848 Kb/s; 20 cm range + 2 MHz band. More here.
If install fail, you'll have crashed ROM (but recovery & download still work in best, in worst you'll need Odin for flashing stock).
Hi i need help rooting my phone. Can you please help me?

you should start off by going to the correct forum section for your phone. once you have done that, you might be able to do a little reading and figure it out. posting should be a last resort after you have bothered to do ANYTHING yourself
I already told him that in his other post. And I was nice about it. But the fact that he chose to ignore it and clearly doesn't even know what forum he's in tells me maybe he shouldn't be trying to root at all.

There are so many guides for upgrading it's impossible you've missed them. Search here on xda (or on google) and learn how to do it. No need for asking in a new thread because the answers are already out here.
