Dont use CF root. Read the "understanding the basics" thread. I have linked to the methods you should use.

Can I ask what wrong with cf way? Don't see the link mate?
Sent from my GT-I9300

Link is to cf-root 6.4 which is what I'm trying to do mate. Read that thread. All of it and that's what I'm going bye. So that/I'm wrong to follow that way of rooting? I don't get it

It's out of date and unsupported, use cf auto root then flash recovery after, old cf root will install non sds safe recovery.
Read read read read red.....read some more.....learn learn learn.....read read read....learn learn........only then flash

Out of date. Omg so link is bad then. Ok thank you a lot for the info mate.

Links are
1) You want root only. No custom ROMs, kernels etc. Just root, just to use root apps.
CF Auto Root Via Odin
Why? Tried and tested method, simple to use. No need to choose what exploit you want to use as it's tailored for your device.
What does it do? It gives you a stock recovery (so can't flash things) and roots the Android OS
The Steps:
1) Download the Latest Odin
2) Download CF-Auto-Root for your model
3) Follow These steps to root

In guide on how to flash and first link down takes you to cf-root 6.4 mate.

I use Odin, but had a lot of difficulties reseting the yellow triangle after, so I bought the triangle away app. (You don't have to b/c it is free at XDA). Now if you find Oneclick method easier, then go for it.

I have the same xwlp7 and rooted and install cm9.
Google xwlp7 u will easily find insecure kernel for it.
U can watch some movies on YouTube to learn it first and get comfortable. Video from galaxys2root.com is good.
If u want to put custom rom then buying rom manager app is the safest and easiest way.

if you have GB then u can use doomlord root toolkit, then you can find the cf root kernel needed to match your kernel, extract till just a zImage, download InitialCFRootFlasher.zip and installed zImage manually that will give you root and cwm, then install mobile odin and away you go with out increasing binary counter. if you are on ICS then there is a thread somewhere on here for rooting ics other than cf root.

Thx for this, I will try this metod and then notify you is this help me!
I didnt say anything about flashing new kernel, i told you a way of minipulating kernel you have without using insecure kernel and without yellow triangle, only talked about mobile odin for your plans after, but if you trying not to void warrenty and keeping binary count as it is you will need mobile odin to flash original kernel if you ever want to remove cwm, once it is in its hard to remove without replacing kernel. I see someone already gave u link for ics rooting. i read between the lines of OP there is normally only one reason people worry about binary count.
Ps also triangle away app is suppose to reset binary count anyway but never bothered with it myself. every thing i told you about can also be undone without increasing binary count to

rooting questions and confusions

Hey guys.. i read a lot about rooting my S2..and found a method that doesnt require flashing an insecured kernel..so there wont be any risk of bricking the phone which i want to avoid in case anything goes wrong with CF root method. I am on ICS 4.03
Her is the method i want to use: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
Now i have few confusions though.
1. Will this install the CWM too which the cf root method also installs automatically? if not, can i download it and install separately or something?
2. Secondly , i would like to install and try out few custom roms..so which is the best and easiest method for doing that without any risks?
Thanks for the reply in advance
Anyone reply plz..
i am really looking forward to root...but am a noob on rooting...SGS2 is my first phone..just wanted to confirm everything before rooting

Yep of course that's the Rahmat3 flashable rooting zip.. that's my favorite rooting method coz it's so easy by flash the zip file even on stock recovery mode without flashing insecure kernel (that's more complicated way.. )
I'll tell u what I've done at my gs2 & of course in my case (may happen different on urs but little possibility if u really have an int'l gs2 gt-i9100
1. Yes it'll automatically installs CWM but better u d/l latest cwm (e.g. cwm 5.5.4)..u can search it at the forum using search feature.
2. I strongly suggest to flash ICS Slim 4.2 then combine it with Fluxi Kernel v.3 b1 (read procedures carefully), u'll provide an 'early project butter' experience, balanced by safest bug issues & nice battery life..& also it's free to customize ur app w/out dare about RAM full by samsung's bloat coz it's just... yes Slim!
If those will help...please press thanks....

Enquiry about ROOT for Galaxy SIII

Dears,
I would like to ask how to root my Samsung SIII with stock rom. Just wish to that the mobile device is smoother, battery efficient and power saving. I read some thread and slightly understand the step, first download ODIN and install it into pc. Second, put CF-ROOT into the TAR column. Meanwhile, I also found FRANCO for kernel. So, what should I do??
The other things will be, the same stuff above can be use in Samsung galaxy SII as well?
Thanks and pending the response.

Using CF root you will still be able to get official updates through Kies no problem, u just need to run cf root again after an official update. OTA updates I dont use anyway but just to be safe dont try and install OTA updates as the usually seem to fail. If the phone notifies u of a ota update just hook up kies and get it.
If you plan to install other root kernels I cant advice as I only use cf root.
CF-Root is a stock-kernel with Root enabled, so if you want to increase "smoothness" and battery saving, then you're on the wrong kernel since it behaves exactly like stock.
I can recommend Siyah kernel. You don't even need to use CF-Root to root your device before, since it already comes with a Odin-flashable version and auto-installs root.

I think you should read more before you ruin your phone. I would start reading the cf root thread. I would root with cf first then make a nandroid backup in recovery. Then from there you can flash whatever you like i.e kernels, ROMS.

The S3 has a separate recovery partition unlike the S2 so Kernel, ROM and recovery are completely unrelated.

You can flash what you want. There are several ROMs, recoveries and kernels.
Have a read of my "understanding the basics before rooting" thread as there is a lot of info in there that you need to read. It can be located if you follow the link in my signature to General > Sticky roll-up

yes its compatible with your phone. nothing can go wrong if you follow the OP.
Or you can try this method also.
i personally prefer the former.
CF auto root is the most painless way to root, it changes almost nothing in the process. Then backup your efs folder before you do ANYTHING else.

By the way rooting with CF-Autoroot doesn't include a custom recovery anymore that's why you needed to flash a custom recovery separately.

[Q] How to re-root once MK6 4.3 installed

OK, think I must be being a little bit blind around the forum, but cannot seem to locate how and links to perform a root once I update to 4.3
I'm running 4.1.2 and am currently rooted (I used CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4 since forever and always seems to work), which seemed to work fine on 4.1.2. However, reading all over the place about rooting being different on 4.3, but as I said, just cannot seem to find links and info on how to do it on the latest
I know I can easily install the 4.3 update using ODIN to replace 4.1.2, but would then like to re-root once this has been done
Any help and links much appreciated
Cheers

If you have Mobile Odin, that's the easiest way. Used it to root MK6
I used CF Auto Root on the OTA update and it was fine.

Excellent .. thanks guys. Was just a little worried with all the stuff have been reading about the latest 4.3 and Knox etc, that it might not be possible to root. I understand that the knox flag is now triggered, but to me that is not a prob, as don't really worry about the warranty
I rooted my 4.3 via cf root 6.4 but flashed it via odin. Unzip go to download mod put cf root md5 into pda and hit start. Than go to custom recoveri and flash su 1.8 update from sd card. Easy

I rooted my 4.3 via cf root 6.4 but flashed it via odin. Unzip go to download mod put cf root md5 into pda and hit start. Than go to custom recoveri and flash su 1.8 update from sd card. Easy

My device is not rooted!!
Hi, i installed Imperium v23.2 today and when i tried to use Titanium backup it failed to load because there is no SU binary?
so i rooted my device again using CF Root V6.4 and the same problem presented, i uninstalled SuperSU updated it and no luck.
Any advice?
My Device is SG3 GT i9300 international version.
Sort it out
I found the answer and worked in this thread:

i flashed the 4.3 superuser.zip and worked for me.
Cheers:good:
