I hope you can help me guys .. CHEERS!
First and most important step in rooting ur phone is reading about it. Search and you will find many good guides here on XDA. Read them and post any questions you may have before you attempt to root yourself.

I am searching for 5 days sir and I did't get complicated process of rooting so pls if you could kindly help me to safely root my device ..
If you're scared/"don't want to take any risks..." don't mess with your phone in the first place.
If you're not prepared to search/learn basic stuff (like rooting) on your own, you run the risk of breaking your phone & voiding your warranty. Which means you'll end up paying to have it repaired.
Ill help because im feeling nice. Download Siyah kernel or CF kernel and put phone in download mode (turn off, hold power, vol - and home) get odin and click PDA and navigate to the kernel you downloaded. On the phone press vol+ and it will say download. Click start and you have a recovery. Then dowoad any rom and put on phone sd or normal memory. Turn phone off and then go into recovery (power + vol up and home) and do wipe data factory reset and then install zip and navigate to the directory where its downloaded. Once done reboot. Cheers.
Also use the search next time.

Also another crucial tip, until you dont change the kernal to siyaah, do not do any wipe actions in the recovery or you will certainly break your phone. Good luck

Hey guys,
I had just recently root my phone ( SAMSUNG GALAXY S II ) and i always wanted to update to the latest version out there and i heard that i can do this when i am rooted.
So i would like a little help here guys.
By the way my phone keeps shutting down by itself. I don't know why. I believe that is the root. The problem started when i root my phone.
I also would like to show me a link where i can learn to use the root stuff for example ( How can you chance theme. Or How can you fully personalize your phone. )
And something last i will really appriciate if you can tell me the top 10 useful programs ( APKs ) for ROOT phones.
Thanks a lot!

Yes, u can update to the latest version, but you can do it with or without root. Just flash the latest firmware via Odin.
As for your other questions, a simple search on XDA forums or Google could give u a lot more answers than any of us could...

What's the easiest root method for the Galaxy S II.
I'm not looking to flash custom ROM's in the future. Just looking for a basic root.
I have the Sprint Epic 4G Touch, on 4.0.4.
I tried Exynosabuse, it didn't work sadly.
Search for the cf-root thread here.
Then choose ur specific baseband version. (settings>about phone>basisversion)
Then flash this via Odin.
After this ur phone is rooted and u can install zip in CWM (recovery mode)
Much success
CHEERS

I just tried using google and looking for the easiest method (IMO) for around 30 minutes.
I figured XDA would have all the answers, which the users do

Going to give it a shot, see how it goes.
So basically I'm a big noob at this. After some intense research, I'm still confused about how to root my phone; with all the kernal stuff and rom...
basically, what do I need to do with my current phone specs to root it cause apparently my kernal version is hard to find.
