Hi all,
I'm new to the SGS2 - I previously had a Motorola Atrix, which was locked down so I couldn't use things like CWM.
I've rooted the SGS2 with the CF kernel, and now when I boot in to CWM it says 'Can't access to /system/csc/XEV/system' uder Applying Multi-CSC
And there's no backup option - does anyone have tips?
Thanks
Which root and CWM are you using and how did you flash .
jje
I used CF-Root with Odin, the CWM it came with is V1.80
Cheers
Try to flash the newer kernel from chainfire (4.0)...there's an newer cwm-version included...should work ;-)

Thanks for the responses.
Dontomate, I used CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE7-v4.0-CWM4.zip
I found it on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Do you use the ke7-firmware or a ke7-based-rom? If you do that but the problem is still there I recommend a full wipe and install the rom and kernel again.
Edit: maybe you must only flash the kernel again

Before I rooted it I checked the 'about' section and it already had KE7 there, so I used CF's KE7 firmware (I'm assuming this was the right thing to do). I then flashed another KE7 firmware over the top to remove the triangle warning on boot.
Everything's working, aside from this issue with CWM. I can boot in to it, but as outlined above I can't seem to backup
Cheers
Strange...seems you do everything right...but to be sure you should post your problem in the kernel-thread also! There're more people who can help you.

You do not root with a kernel any more as recovery has its own partition again (like most android phones)
Root is easy, flash cwm recovery with ODIN like you would a kernel, then flash the root . zip in recovery.

Sorry for asking something that might have been asked many times before but I am using LP9 but am afraid to root with CF Root LP9 because of many bugs. Can I just flash Siyah Kernel.tar on top of stop kernel with odin instead of having to flash cf root first? Thank you!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Yes, you can.
Sorry one more question... Will it make a difference if i flash LPG(is it even compatible with LP9?) first then siyah than if I just flash siyah directly?

Hi! I attempted to root my S2 via a method I found here whereby I flash an insecure kernel then root using S2 root. I followed the guide to the T and still my phone is only ''partially rooted'' according to rootchecker and no root apps could be granted su access.
I am running ICS 4.0.3, Baseband Version XXLPS.
What should I do next or should I accept defeat and leave this phone unrooted? What could I have done wrong?
Thanks in advance for reading.

flash the latest siyah kernel v3.4.1 either from ur recovery (use siyah .zip file) or thro Odin ( use siyah .tar file) and then see
Thanks Sun!
I have downloaded the Tar file. I assume what I do now is flash it onto my phone and retry S2 Root again?

If you flash Siyah you will be already rooted.
Ah, then perfect. Thank you!

Either I am an uber noob or there is something wrong!
I downloaded the Siyah 3.4.1.tar kernel from gokhanmoral and flashed via odin and the phone sat at the boot screen with the little yellow triangle on it. I left the phone on and running like that for 10minutes.
I flashed my insecure kernel back on from last time (the one I used when trying to root using s2root) and it is fine again.
Anywho I am back to square one! -.-

ok buddy follow this steps to reroot ur phone in a proper manner.
1) Dwnld the official ICS firmware(4.0.3) and flash thro odin
link Here
2) after that please dwnld the Matching Cf- root kernel and flash thro' ODIN
link Here
ur phone will be rooted properly and should wrk fine
ps- read the OP of both the threads carefully and follow the instructions over there to root ur phone successfully
If you only need proper root, no custom or insecure kernels and no yellow triangle, look at the guide in my signature. Worth the try

Hey i had a similar problem. There is a superuser n buybox zip file that you will find on one forum here,that is about basic how to root. Copy those files to your phone then go to recovery and apply zip. I had a hard time with my phone partially rooted but thay solved it

Hello guyz!
Ive installed official jb rom and philz kernel....
How i can do this phone rooted???
Because i go to titaniumbackup and it shows me that i need busybox etc...
Thanks for all!
Do you have PhilZ kernel installed? If yes then you are rooted.
See if you have root by searching "root checker/validator" etc in Google play. Download the app and it'll tell you if you hav root or not.

By using a rooted kernel?

Ye. If you installed custom kernel then you have root. Just look for superuser or supersu app. If you dont have it flash Siyah latest in CWM or Odin and you will have root

Check with "Root check" from play store just to be sure.
The other day a guy flashed philz and couldn't use any root function/app, crazy.
i check my phone and i says that it has not root.... :/ but i ve installed philz kernel and i working with it... whats the problem?
good question....download philz again.
If it doesn't work, flash siyah via odin.

Why you all want to flash custom kernels ?
My S2 is running well with this root method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794 and the stock kernel.
I won't hit you if you hit the tanks button
