First of all is the rom stock?
If not try using PhilZ kernel, you don't need to have a computer to get root access, just flash the .zip using stock recovery. You should then be able to get root access and use mobile odin, however I'm not sure if the kernel is compatible with 4.0.3 so just check to make sure. If not, then I'm afraid the only way you'll get root access is through using a computer.

Ok thanks... anyway i also have galaxy s3 shw-m440s orig korean from sk telecom.... do you have a flash kernel ? I have mobile too but i dont have flash kernel for this.... and do also have root .zip file ?

A basic search for kernel should have given you all the posts related to kernel and hence all the kernels for s2. Please use the power of search.
Anyways, There is a thread having index of kernels - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702166

[Q] Which CWM version

Hi, I am running an ics custom rom from rizdroid 19100xwlp4-19100xxlps-19100luxlp1 and I would like to flash clockworkmod to my rooted phone via Odin but not sure which version I need. Any help please or advise please.
Alan
I use Siyah Kernel which has CMW 5.5.0.4.
you can get this kernel from here:
http://www.gokhanmoral.com
Thanks, do I just flash my phone using Oldi with the Kernal or is there anything else I have to do?
If your phone is I9100 international model, just put the Siyah kernel TAR file on the ODIN PDA and flash.....
How did you flash the custom rom "rizdroid 19100xwlp4-19100xxlps-19100luxlp1"
can you give us the link/thread for this ROM
Here is rizdroid's custom rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487&page=416
I flashed used Odin, and my phone is an international 19100

my friend, this is not a custom ROM this is official ICS rom, after installing from ODIN, if you have followed the rooting method of the same thread instruction, (CF-root) you should have already a latest Clockworkmode installed in your Phone. no need of flashing again any kernels.
to checkout this just shut down the phone and press Vol-up+home+power button and hold for few seconds to appear the galaxy logo and keep pressing til it blinks and appear again then release.....you will get the CWM recovery
Hi all I did was flash the rom via Odin and I have an app that checks if you are rooted and it says I am but when I do the test that you said to do I get the Android system recovery not cwm recovery.

CF-Root for your firmware is not found so just flash Siayah from ODIN, make sure flashing file should be .TAR and selected from PDA.

The first thing you have to do after rooting is Nandroid back up and EFS back up of your phone...
Dont be after the shortcuts and tips, read as much as possible, There is no substitute for READING for COMPREHENSION.
these STICKIES will give you the knowledge about SGS2 from basic to the deepest.....
Try the N. E. A. K. Kernel with the modded cwm, works very well!

It is not terribly required to change your Kerenel every time you flash, the suitable kernel already packed by devs for their ROM is more than enogh for running the Phone...but further it is your choice to change the kernel after exploring the reviews and features of the custom kernels and decide whether it will give you any advantage or not....Also no need to worry about Clockworkmode it will be their already on the (allmost all) Custom rom.
the kernel which I suggested that time was mainly for you to get a Clockworkmode recovey and rooting which anable you to flash roms further
NOTE : Once you have already got Clockworkmode no need to use the Odin version of the Custom Kernels, just take the CWM version and put it on your SD card and falsh it from CWM recovery.
Thanks for replying zaheedahmed, what do you think of Keasby's Kernel is it worth flashing will I loose clockworkmode?

No you wont loose the CWM, all the custom kernels are attached with a CWM recovery...that is the main goody of SGS2 kernels...
One more question if I flash a new release ics rom and it doesn't have a csc with xeu do I flash a csc xeu file at the same time as flashing the ics rom, will this work?

Sorry experts can give comments about the compatibility of such mix flashing....
But why are you so concerned about CSC, what difference is giving you XEU than others just for my information.
CSC can only flashed from ODIN, you will loose your root and you have to Root it again by flashing a Root kernel again...
Sorry I thought I needed csc xeu as I live in the UK
CSC not required if you enter network settings manually .

[Q] Please help to ROOT and install CWM on Galaxy SII GT-I9100 android version v4.03

I search, but I can't find solution how to root Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100 with new version of android:
v4.03
kernel: 3.0.15-I9100XWLP7-CL340913
Build: IML74K.XWLP7
Baseband: I9100XXLPS
If someone can help me to post here a link for one-click solution what is tested and working 100% I will be thankful.
Any help is welcome.
Thx.

2 Root without insecure kernel.
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.
InitialCFRootFlasher.zip you unzip it then put you zImage in the insert zImage here folder then click the rooted option
But with this method read read READ, and dont use wrong CF zImage or you will be flashing firmware via odin tofix it

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

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.

Not sure i understand 100% but flashing cfroot will alter your binary counter, hence change device status to modified yes.

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.

You need root access first before you can flash a kernel via recovery (factory recovery).
I'll advise you to just flash the kernel via Odin.
However, If you still want to use the recovery option I can post a link for you.
You can always flash updates via Odin. Much faster.

Install cmw recovery using ODIN

Hi,
I have a ATT Samsung Galaxy S2 with 4.0.4((recently updated). I used Exynos Abuse to root my phone. I would like to install cmw recovery and try a custom rom.
I tried to follow the instruction on cyanogen mod but didn't help me much. i installed heimdall but the clockwork mod package doesn't have a zimage. so when i try the command heimdall install --kernal zimage, it says zimage cannot be found!
Is there any other way I can install CMW ? using ODIN ?

Have you tried Mobile Odin. You install it on your phone. I believe it has the capability to flash zipped files as well as tar files.
I'm not familiar with Cyanogen Mod, but you could/should use a kernel compatible with stock 4.0.4 in case you try to boot the phone after installing it. So I would suggest using Siyah. Download the CWM flashable zip package, open it with an archiving program, and extract the zimage. Then use that with either Heimdall or Mobile Odin.

As Ninja says, on the I777 ClockworkMod Recovery is "baked" into the kernel. If you try to install CWM separately, it will almost certainly brick your phone. It seems that in some cases, it is a true brick.

Use the most current Siyah. There is no Entropy kernel for ICS. Find the Siyah thread in the original development section of this forum.
If you continue to have issues, remember that before asking, you should try searching and reading for a few hours. Or as long as it takes. There is a sticky clearly stating not to use ROM manager, as it doesn't work properly with our phone. As well as many other helpful tips and instructions. Good luck

I have the same situation with ATT stock 4.0.4.
Just to help you out. This is what you need to do and use (already suggested by almost everyone here that responded). I am just pointing you tto the right location.
NOTE: Read all the instruction and make sure that you understand before you start.
1. Download and install Mobile Odin Lite from this thread. Or you can buy Mobile Odin Pro from the Play Store. (your choice)
2. Download [KERNEL] Siyah - JELLYBEAN - ICS [v4.3.3] "One kernel to rule them all!" put it in the root of your SD and flash it using Mobile Odin. If you use Mobile Odin Lite you will have to extract the file.
As also stated by Phalanx7621, "you should try searching and reading for a few hours." You should do that before you start. I took almost a week reading and looking at other posts before I even got the courage to flash this kernel.
