Stock:
The following ROMs include a Kernel and recovery with the Update 7 "Fixes" applied. If you have one of these, officially consider yourself "Safe".
If you rooted one of the below stock ROMs, you will also be safe, however - if you changed to a custom kernel or recovery, you need to look at the below custom sections.
If you have never rooted, the stock section is all you need read.
As It appears all 4.1.2 kernels have the fixes, there is no longer a need to test them all. See below for a list of tested kernels that have the fix. All kernels subsequent to these will also be regarded as safe.

This ROM is newer. Both by looking at Sammobile and by looking at the build number, it's obvious that it is included.

Okay guys, First off I apologize if my post is too noobish. Yes I am a noob at all this.
I rooted my phone using steps mentioned here - http://samsunggalaxys2review.org/forum/showthread.php?tid=43
I bought my phone in india with the KE8 update, and now the About Phone section shows the following:
Android Version - 2.3.3
Bsaeband Version - I9100DDKE2
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL 161513
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE8.
I read about a post for rooting the galaxy S2 here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
and am a little bit confused. Firstly did I do the rooting with a piece of old software or something? Do I need to do the rooting again or flash my phone with some other latest software ?
Can someone please spoon feed me some info about:
1. Whether I need to infact update my software and flash my phone again
2. If so how?
Thanks a lot guys, and again sorry for being too noobish :S
flash CF-root KE8 kernal as per
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
that way you can keep your KE8 and have Root AFAIK
(take no responsibility blah blah blah)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
I found this thread here and here they have given source of the Stock KE8 Kernel. Since i have already rooted my phone, is it enough if I just flash my phone with this stock kernel to have the latest software in my phone?

yes just download the stock kernel KE8 and flash over the rooted one, and your phone will still be rooted
Well I have rooted mine yesterday after a 3 hours effort. I think there should be a thread for Noobs like OP and me which will elaborate the Steps & Methods, the Application needed etc. in a Simple way with good demonstration. Not everybody had Android before, so for the new comers this is hard, very hard to understand all these. Like I am now having difficulties with ADB, I don't even know where to install it and from where, how to use it? The devs are very easy with these stuffs and they just mention the software name, but we, newcomers to Android are getting puzzled. It's a like a 5 year old baby has to face class X straightaway.
Some basic faqs SGS1 mostly same SGS2 .

Thanks mate. Just 1 more question:

There was another thread where I found this. Which here should I use? What is ODD Generic India and what is the difference between this and the Stock Kernel?
And btw here is a guy that explains everything in detail on youtube:
I followed his instructions, and did exactly what he did and rooted my phone in 10 mins

This is the stock kernel which came from the Samsung factory. The phone is NOT rooted if you did not root it. You can do rooting with an insecure kernel and then revert back to the stock kernel, keeping the root intact.
I have just purchased SII (previously i had HTC Desire). With Desire it wasn't so difficult to understand all those ROMs and Radios. You choose a ROM and install, if there is a new Radio just download and install, simple as that. Now with S2 i can't seem to understand all these SCS codes, different kernels, roms, modem firmwares!!!
Could someone please explain why there are so many different kernels, roms, modems? What are the differences between them? Can you switch between them? Are there any implications and is it safe if you do so?
I have rooted my phone using CF-Root, now if i wanted to install another ROM/Kernel/Modem do i use CF CWM or do i need to have original CWM recovery?
Maybe not relevant but fyi my phone infos are:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
PHONE: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100XXKF1 (NEE)
Baseband: I9100XXKE7
Kernel: I9100XWKF3
Android 2.3.3
Thank you
► Many ROM's are there for different purposes. Visit the Original Dev section and see them one by one, you will get the idea.
► Different Kernel also same, for different purposes. One will support Overcloking, the other will support BLN, and some other with Voltage settings and etc.
► CF root is the simplest yet effective method of rooting IMO. It roots the device as well as keep the kernel close to Stock like.
► You can't change ROM's from within the phone, I don't think there is any Dual Booting stuff available atm, so you just have to flash then via Odin.
Regards.
Thanks but i might need to make myself more clear, i kinda know that ROMs are for different purposes but actually my question would be about Stock roms/kernels, why so many directly from Samsung?
Why can't i change the ROM from within the Phone? Isn't CWM the purpose for all those things?

1. That's Samsung. And they don't release changelogs.
2. Because you can't - no OTA updates for stock ROMs as of yet. Edit - misunderstood you I think - see 3..
3. Yes, CWM will do this for you.

Minor improvements or Samsung got fed up with winging about no updates and now its payback time .
Why can't i change the ROM from within the Phone? Isn't CWM the purpose for all those things?
You can if the rom has been written to do so most use CWM recovery a few use Odin .

I upgraded my firmware today on my UK T-Mobile SGS2 today, but lost the root I had in the process. I was previously having a really annoying 'lag' that would make the whole phone jerky and unresponsive and that seems to have cleared up after this upgrade. I'm really keen to do the rooting properly this time... as I'm guessing it was a problem of incompatability that cuased the jerkyness problems I was experiencing before.
From the Chainfire rooting thread I see that there isn't a rooted kernel that is for KG2 and Android 2.3.3
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip - Is for 2.3.4
These files aren't labeled as being 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 - does anoyone know:
CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip
CF-Root-SGS2_JP_XSG_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip
If you were in my position, what would you root with?
My current phone details are:
Modellnummer:
GT-I9100
Android-Version:

If you are going to root then flash a custom Rom, then I wouldn't worry as the Rom will be based on 2.3.4 probably.
If you want to stay stock, then you could follow my route, CF-Root then flash VillainRom which is based on 2.3.4 and as close to stock as possible with a few tweaks to improve things such as battery life.
Hope this helps
Ideally I'l like to be able to get future official updates through Keis - and I would lose that if I switched to Villain rom right?
I also wondering if I'm going to flash a custom ROM, might I as well flash a more recent Samsung one like KH3? Looking at Villainrom it says there are problems with the stock browser and stock SMS.
Piecing together info from other threads I saw that someone said that you can flash a rooted kernel and then flash back your original unrooted kernel and it will stay rooted. Is this true? If so, perhaps I could flash a rooted kernel (either a 2.3.4 or a 2.3.3 for KG1 or KG3 (close to my rom), and then flash back my current KG2. Thing is, how do I get my current KG2 kernel off the device before I overwrite it with a rooted variant.
Sorry if my questions are a bit basic or confused. I'm still trying to get to grips with all this. Thanks for the patience!
1. Yes you will lose updates through Keis but the custom Roms are based on the most up to date anyway.
2. Don't think you can restore your kernel and keep root afaik busybox etc are baked into the kernel
3. Yes there is a lag problem, it is to do with odexing/deodexing (don't ask me) but there is a flashable fix if you search the thread. Villain Tweaks app should help with the SMS I think.
4. Find your firmware/kernel on Intratechs thread and download it and keep it safe. When you root you will replace the current kernel. If you need to go back then you can flash the original through odin.
Well, since it seems going with a full flash is the only way of rooting with my current officical setup, I'm gonna try KH3 and see how it goes. I'm quite relctant to get into custom romming because I don't normally have the time to deal with the inevitable problems (so I hear), but I do need to be rooted. Wish me luck! and thanks for your help.

Jiffage ?? Did you make it ??
[Solved]
I was a complete noob but for the past 2 days I've been massively experimenting with my phone to finally figure out how to use Heimdall (since I'm on a Mac) and flashing ROMs and Kernels.
My problem is I got this phone here in India, and yesterday I flashed it with the official ICS 4.0.3 version (since KIES wouldn't let me). But then I say the Resurrection Remix ROM and I really wanted it.
So here are the doubts:
1. I realize I'll need to root my phone first. I read this in a bunch of threads. I started using Chainfire's post as my reference, only to realize that they're meant for 19100 only. Not the G variant.
So, what kernels can I use to root my phone?
My current kernel string reads like this:
3.0.8 [email protected] #2 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 22 15:00:05 KST 2012
The baseband version reads: I9100GDDLP5
I assumed LP5 to be the kernels I should be looking for (referring to Chainfire's post) but couldnt find any for the G.
I came across this link:
androidforums.com/galaxy-s2-international-all-things-root/482437-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100g-all-things-root.htm
It gives a bunch of kernels for G, but for android version 2.3.6. Does this mean:
a) Those are the only kernels I can hope to get?
b) I need to flash the old version ROM to use them?
My other question is, once I do root my phone with the appropriate kernel,
can the G variant use the Resurrection ROM? If I can't, could anyone suggest a good ROM I should use?
And finally, staying true to my newbie level, can I directly flash a custom ROM using Heimdall without rooting? Also I saw a ROM with a Siyah kernel, so can't I just flash that ROM using Heimdall? I mean, if I root with some kernel and then the ROM I install changes it anyway, can't I directly use the ROM's kernel? I'm just asking.

Solution:
I went to the Cynagenmod 9 for I9100G on this site. Went to it's FAQs, flashed the clockworkmod kernel and then used Recovery mode to flash Cyanogenmod 9. Works perfectly. Better than perfect. My phone is finally living up to it's potential!
odin
you can flash a custom recovery to your galaxy with odin,check soem guide on xda, then from the recovery menu yu can flash teh resurection rom,that is prerooted
Thanks...but
@meccandroid: Thanks for the reply, but you're saying that the ROM can be installed on the G variant too? I read there's some hardware difference in 19100 and 19100G, so if the ROM is intended for 19100, wouldn't there be an issue?

Problem solved...solution posted in original post.
Hi guys,
I have a pebble blue 32gb S3 running on custom ROM jellyBAM - the latest version with cm kernal.. I would like to know if i flash XXELLA kernal via odin directly to this ROM without bricking it or do i have to go back to official ROM to get XXELLA update.. Also many people are trying to downgrade from XXELLA to old kernals...Why is that.. Does XXELLA truely fixes the EXYNOS bug and the sudden death issues?
Thanks
You are completely confused - CM kernels and JB stock kernels are not interchangeable for one thing. ROMs, Bootloaders and Kernels - read up a little.
Respectfully but strongly suggest you stick with what you currently have... based on your current experience level.
This should also be in the Q and A forum - and for Pete's sake lose the multiple exclamation marks (!!!!!!!).
It's kernEl.
But you're indeed confused, seems like you are talking about the bootloader, not the kernel. You can flash it via Odin and some people think that it fixes the sudden death. The exploit bug, on the other hand, is kernel - related, and most current kernel have it fixed
