Dosen't work

Try "gingerbreak"

I think I used z4root to root my girlfriends.
I did it last year though. I think it was on froyo
HtC DNA
XDA App

Not possible

It's not possible at all. Tried it a couple of times and it bricks your device. Had to work mine out of a brick.

I don't think any of the rooting apps work on the galaxy players.

Yup, not compatible. Guess you have to make a friend with a computer do it for you.

Framaroot must work look for it in Playstore its free

If you're on Gingerbread you should be able to use dd to flash a CWM kernel. Then flash superuser from there.
See Entrophy's daily driver instructions for flashing this way.
Note: I checked and the stock U.S. 2.3.5 does have dd.

Wish I remembered how I did it, I remember it was soooo hard to do though, took my hours

Super one click root.
Search on google, first link it comes to xda.
Use that. You need to have a computer though..
All you do is enable usb debugging connect usb click root it pushes update.zip to your phone
Then it installs super user app on your phone.
Then click test or something and on your phone superuser should ask for permissions
Z4root app
Simple..install the apk and root straight from your phone without need of usin usb and that

So i said factory reset will work bro, if you reset the phone that wiill make it work

SuperOneClick works, but it was also the exploit in all those bad apps Google pulled and your pc will think it's a virus.
If you use the ALT METHOD in the noob guide you can have a leaked froyo+root, and then flash a custom rom or stock froyo + root.

If you are on ICS version,
this is not an app but, many versions of stock ICS rom have been rooted with this method, you can read the thread and try : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719

As far as I know, gingerbreak has very rarely worked on the SGS2. Definitely doesn't work on ICS, as the name indicates.
Only 99% certain, here are 150 pages to confirm/refute...
ZacQ8's link is the only non-pc root method available - 99.99% sure about that.
Should be more popular because of that, IMO (said the man who doesn't use ICS...)
few people have posted that they sucessfully rooted their S2 through gingerbreak.. Only if you extract files in right folder...and also i am not on ICS till now.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Just use the method posted by @ZACQ8. It takes only few minutes, it's secure and works fine. That CWM "live" version can even do backups, restores and etc.
We really need apps like "universal androot'" for galaxy s2 .. I just rooted my motorola droid through this app its so simple and easy...just a one click away no need to get in to recovery mode.i hope someone is working on a similer app like this for s2 ..

Rooting my Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 US variant

Hey everyone, lately I have been watching a lot of videos on YouTube from the channel 'PocketNow' and I really enjoy all the tips and tricks they provide for Android user such as ROMS, Mods, and Rooting advise. I myself want to get into the world of rooting my Android devices, but im a little skittish about bricking my device or doing something wrong. Is it really worth rooting my Samsung Galaxy Player ? And if so what is the easiest and safest way to do it?

You can use a program called Super one click or this program here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20950511
Super one click works on most Windows computers so you probably won't have to use the second one.
If you want the features of rooting then it is definitely worth it. You can unroot using super one click as well.

It did for me. You may also have to use odin to flash a new kernel if you want to.

Odin is a program made by Samsung that was leaked. It let's you basically "install" roms and kernels.
You would be able to root without Internet if you managed to download the rooting program.

Is there a way to root my player from the player itself?
Sent from my YP-G70 using xda app-developers app
As joemhewitt noted, use SuperOneClick, it literally is just one click and you're rooted. I'm not doing anything too crazy with my SGP so I'm running everything stock excepted rooted. For me, the most valuable aspect of being rooted is to be able to backup my stuff with Titanium Backup. I followed this video and rooting worked perfectly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA4bw8bU4T4
I also watched this video, thanks man

Would the mobile Odin pro app work for this device? I purchased it when I had my epic 4g touch and have been itching to use it again...

Bin4ry has developed a script to root any ICS and above device. Search for it.
Thanks for your help but didn't work.keeps saying remote device not detected. I tried it a few different ways even though it does say it is done but when I check it isn't. busy box and superuser are installed but still no root.
