Hi.. That link you posted is to root android 2.2 and 2.1 ... Not for 2.3 gingerbread..
If u want to root your phone the safest and easiest way to do is flash a stock rooted (name of file).md5 thru Odin..
Odin= computer program that is used to flash stock roms and modems on Samsung phones
(name of file).md5 is a file that u need to download for your phone..
U can google rooting epic 4g 2.3.6 on xda and yolk for a way to root via Odin..
U can also YouTube rooting via Odin.. Super easy.. Happy rooting!
Also after rooting thru Odin u can install a custom recovery thru Odin so u can install roms thru ur memory card..

[Q] Rooting Galaxy S II on 4.0.4 XXLQ6?

Hey guys,
I recently discovered CyanogenMod, and decided that I might like to install it on my Galaxy S II - However, I am very new to rooting and installing these things, and I don't even know if it's possible.
Can someone give me a step-by-step guide on how to do this?
Thanks in advance

Get your pc setup to use Odin.Then you can flash siyah-s2-v4.1.5.tar directly.....which gives you root/cwm and safe kernel.
Then backup efs folder and make nand backup.
Then visit the rom thread you like and follow instructions.
Or you can root using recovery method in my sig and flash the .zip version of siyah.

The tutorial is to explain in a moment against it says install TWRP is lower after it says philz Touch.
For root I can install cf auto root without problem?
What is MD5 checksum?
So which version do?
It can be installed before installing the rom?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,
I installed ARHD with PhilZ recovery.
It worked fine.
Root with Chainfire's Auto root.
Google MD5 checksum, for an explanation.
If you want specific help,use the S4 Help Thread in my signature.
Thank you for your reply.
If I have another question I'll post on the subject [HELP TRUAND] Galaxy S4 | Ask a question | Noob friendly

[Q] Rooting i717m galaxy note with rogers wireles Canada

i have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note I717m running android 4.1.2
i have looked everywhere trying to find a way to root it but i can't find a thread or site (via google) that would explain to me exactly what i need to do to root my Note specifically. I am a beginner at rooting but i have rooted my samsung galaxy s3 (only because the rooting sites were abundant and very easy to understand)
All i need is to know if there is a way to root such an old phone running the latest software, and if there is i need to know how.
thank you
Get latest twrp .tar from og dev section to use with Odin.
Uncheck auto reboot in Odin, flash recovery, and since you have the Canadian version there is an extra step as there is a script in place to overwrite a custom recovery if you boot directly into the os,
So, right after the Odin flash, button combo into recovery and factory reset, then boot into android.
Now reboot into recovery and when you go to boot again from there it should see that you're not rooted and ask if you'd like to do so.
Thank you for your quick reply!
I however dont know what you mean by twrp.tar and where i can find it
I would need links to sites and a guideline if possible because when i rooted my s3 it was one step after the other i didn't really understand all of it and it was a long time ago
Thanks again, hope I'm not asking for too much here I'm new to this forum
Its in the development section for the i717. Go to TRWP recovery. Click the link to the site and MAKE SURE ITS FOR THE I717. Download and do what stud said.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
it worked!
thanks alot!
