Hi,
While trying to find the right and good cf root for my device (i9300, running stock 4.3 JB), I got confused.
What are the differences between the normal and old CF root, to the new thread with Auto root?
Thanks!
Don't use the old CF root, it includes a recovery that isn't SDS safe. CF auto root is the only method updated and which Chainfire still supports.
Thanks!
The auto root, it has one file that supports which Android versions?
Thanks
Best visit the CF auto root thread and research.

Major difference is that:
(1) cf autoroot as said is newer and comes without recovery, whereas cf root comes with recovery (not sds safe!)

the easiest way ( in my opinion ) is to find your baseband version and down load the corresponding cf root file on itratechs thread and flash it in the PDA section in odin

i am a complete newbie with android so flashing and all is not for me i just need root on my device so that i can install few of the application
As Wezza said, CFRoot is the easiest & most hassle-free root method for SGS2. Takes all of 2 minutes, very remote chance of stuffing your phone up so long as you follow the instructions. By your own admission, you're a 'complete newbie with Android', and IMHO, using a method other than CFRoot to root your phone is just making life unnecessarily complicated for yourself.
Just my (and obviously Wezza's) opinion tho.

Hey guys, i have some questions ..
I' have "rooted' my Samsung Galaxy S2 Android( 4.0.3)
baseband: I9100XXLPW
and Kernel is XWLPD
with this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125414
I just followed all the steps did flash the insecure stock then runned s2 root and clicked Root Device.
It said that i have rooted succesfully. then it went rebooted. I checked if it was rooted by the root check app
but it says i don't have root?
Realy weird..
What should i do? i tried re-rooting
I think that S2 Root has some bugs.
I did have superuser too , it just didn't ask the permissions there's te problem i guess
1) Your link is busted.
2) Frankly, anyone with an I9100/T who doesn't use CFRoot to root their phone is making their life unnecessarily difficult/complicated. You might well be right about bugs in the method you tried. I personally don't know as I've never used it. I very much recommend you head over to the CFRoot thread, read the first page carefully (particularly the section with the heading in bold read that says 'Help ! Which file do I use ?'), if you can read/follow instructions you should be able to root your phone successfully/easily
Actually Codeworkx's CWM or siyah kernel will also do, just flash em with odin.
allright updated link,
I don't want use these methods because the method i do
has just a one click Root or Unroot option to make it as easy for me because i'm not good in these things. + i don't want cwm
I guess it's just a bug because everybody is replying the same. The developer should fix and update it.

Hi! I faced exactly the same issue while rooting my phone using S2root. This procedure was working for me when I was on Android 2.3.6 but was not working on Android 4.0.3.
I used the Chainfire method and then used Triangle away. I am now happy rooted.
The following link might be of help to you...

I have a Galaxy S3 I9300. I have rooted it about two months ago. Now, when the Jellybean update came, I immediately updated it via Kies. My problem is- Can I root my phone using the I9300XXDLJ1? Btw, I'm from the Philippines.
AP:I9300XXDLJ1

What I meant by that was the european root package. The I9300XXDLJ1 root package that was released for european countries. I really wanna make sure I'll boot the right root package cause I might brick my phone if I install the wrong one.
Thanks a lot!
if you have an i9300 then cf root will work
Thanks

Thanks man!
My phone originally came with ICS for the middle east. I rooted it already using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
A few days ago I grabbed a UK 4.1.1 unbranded jellybean firmware(XXDLID) and installed it on my phone using CWM and lost root/superuser access obviously.
Can I use the same guide to root the 4.1.1 jellybean? And will having a different firmware than the original one that came with the phone effect the rooting process? I do the same steps just as if I'm on ICS?
thank you
Yes, but you'll need to download the current version of the toolkit, not the old one you had used for ics.
All Sammy-original roms regardless of destined for your country or not work the same in rooting.

thanks alot all done
Hello guys,
I tried to figure this out but no luck.
Some Kernels, and other downloads (Roms, Recoveries etc) are depends on your Android version (GB, ICS, JB, KK).
What about cf root?
I have i9300, running 4.3
CF-ROOT for ICS and for JB, are the same?

It says that CF-Auto-Root still has development.
Anyway - Can you explain me how I can be sure which Root belongs to my device?
You asked cf root not cf autoroot i answered .
Read the thread for the root method you want to use ,

JJEgan - I am not sure if you here in XDA to help people, or just to talk BLABLA.
But my question was pretty clear, and you just tell me what not, and some other "non matter" stuff.
I read all CF-Auto-Root thread, but it does not say if the CF-Auto-Root works with KK, JB, or ICS.
Or it works with all i9300?
If anyone knows the answer I will appriciate that! (JJEgan - Thanks but you are not helping)

I have used it on ICS and JB. There is no GB for our device and no official KK. KK roms at the moment will come pre-rooted. If and when we get official KK we will know if it works
