Hello.
I need access to a file, but on several sites on google - all say that i need to root...
So i want to root my phone, but still keep the "official" android (dont want CyanogenMod etc.)
But im really insecure on how to root my phone - and how risky is it?
Can you please provide me with a guide (with pictures please) on how to root it.
PS: Can i still update my android, if i root the phone?
Will all the data on the phone be deleted? like reinstalling windows....

You should have posted in galaxy s2 section but:
You can keep stock android, just follow this link to root your S2 and it will be fine. There is also video tutorial in the link
You won't be able to update your phone with Software Update but you can always find the latest firmware for S2 from SamFirmware
The sam firmware website is where you can find all the stock firmware for the S2
Your files will be fine such as music pictures etc they will not be wiped and it's not risky to root your phone with the link above
If you have any other questions just ask

Hi everyone im new at this kind of stuff, i just rooted my android motorola motoluxe and i don't know what to do next, i've already read xda-developers begginers guide and it said to backup the /efs folder, the thing is that i dont know how to do it, ive been searching and nothing works with me...

Thanks!
And sorry about my english
Hello everyone i have a rooted sgh-1337m, it is currently on 4.2.2, what steps do i need to take to get to 4.4.2, do i unroot first and then ota update then root again, or is there a more efficient way. Sorry if this comes across as a "dumb" question im new to this android stuff. thank you very much please be as detailed as possible. Thanks!
Hi, newb here, I've been trying unsuccessfully to root my 4.4.2 VGN2 for a few hours now, and now seem to be stuck on the question of if it is even possible to root on 4.4.2 at this point. I haven't been able to find information pointing me in either direction edgewise, as most of the threads are outdated and new stuff is coming out all the time, so I figured I'd ask here. So, is it possible for me to root my phone if I'm already running 4.4.2? Or am I screwed? I'm running a SCH-I605 by the way. Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, i have searched throughly for an xperia z2a rooting method, but i only found those one click rooting apps, which i want to avoid 100% after reading something about being malware/spyware. So, avoid answer containing those methods. Back on the main topic, i unlocked the bootloader, but i cant seem to find a safe method to root my phone, which i want to use it as a kali linux device. The only pre rooted rom i found was taken down from mega. Any help would be appreciated.
