yes, if you're running a JB version 4.1.2 look here its framaroot:
http://true-android.blogspot.com/2013/12/how-to-root-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100-running.html
or this one using CF-auto-root:
http://scientimystic.wordpress.com/...i9100-having-android-4-1-2-official-firmware/
for more information about cf root look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/orig-development/30-10-2012-k-la-lp-t1103399
I think cf root is more better than framaroot for your device because its designed for it and other more devices... so pls. read about Cf root above

I read about cf root but for my understanding it only works on ICS not in JB and about the link you gave i really need both the cf root and philz to root my device without changing stock kernel?

yeah.. its for GB and ICS , for that im really sorry:crying: ... now for the latest version of ICS and JB they use Philz kernel, its a rooted kernel with a customized(philz touch) CWM on it... the philz kernel change your stock kernel to a rooted stock kernel... meaning they add some nice feature on it.. but its the closest stock kernel you'll have... but still it will change the stock kernel , that you dont want to happen... :crying:
forget about that link though there's so many changes on how to root your device (im really sorry about that) ... now ... if you want still to go for CF root but it will change your stock kernel you need to find the compatible version of it .. based on your model number..
But i think framaroot will do the work.. go for the link about framaroot before that install CWM 6 :
http://techbeasts.com/2014/03/28/how-to-install-cwm-6-recovery-on-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-gt-i9100/
then follow on how to root using framaroot...
btw i found a link on how to root your device using framaroot and install kitkat rom on it, Here:
http://luvis.se/tipstricks/root-and-install-kitkat-on-samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100-without-a-computer/
okay im no responsible of bricking your device do it at your own risk, the decision is up to you now:fingers-crossed:
As pinkLeviosa says PhilZ *IS* a JB stock kernel......with root and CWM added.....
So it will do EXACTLY what you want.......
You keep the same stock setup, but you're rooted........
My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right

I used XXK14 insecure and rooted with S2 Root. Afterwards I flashed back stock kernel with Odin
Root with CF-Root kernel for KI8 then flash back to the stock kernel. You'll maintain root but lose the CWM Recovery menu. You'll have stock recovery, stock kernel and no yellow triangle.
thank you, I will try and post the result

i have the same version as the one you mentioned in your post

PDA: I9100JPKJ2
PHONE: I9100XXKI4

and i searched for insecured kernel but i didnt know which one to use
and then i tried this script (DooMLoRD_v1_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312859
i replaced zergRush file with the latest versions before running the batch
https://github.com/downloads/revolutionary/zergRush/zergRush.zip
and it rooted the device in less than 3 minutes with no problem at all (running titanium, rom manager or any app that require root)
but i faced one problem when using ROM Manager (ClockWorkMod 4.0.1.5) to do a Backup current ROM (from Rom Manager or by booting into Recovery)
I get the following message:
-- Installing package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
don't know if doing soft-root is the problem and i have to do hard-root to make CWM work
any way just wanted to share my experience with you

Thanks man it worked like a charm
btw where is that +1 button? I can't seem to find it
another way to root is using SuperOneClick v2.2 since now it have the zergRush exploit
so it will work also
Just extract SuperOneClick 2.2, run it and click Root
(I test it on same device after unrooting it and it worked perfectly)

Yes you can, but for this you need Root.
In rooted phone, just delete the unwanted applications (caution advised) by using root explorer and deleting the apks in /system/apps

pick the correct cf root kernel from my signature link if u are looking for method to root your phone
in a single flashing you will get Rooting and CWM
for JPKJ2 use this kernel, flash it from PDA section of the ODIN after unzipping to TAR file
read Gides for flashing files from ODIN...
http://download.chainfire.eu/48/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEF_KJ2-v4.4-CWM4.zip?retrieve_file=1
Jpkj2 can also be rooted using super one click using zergrush.
Counter will not bee added and you will not get yellow triangle

For CF-ROOT you flash a cf-root kernel specific for your firmware and your phone is rooted.
For one click root you need to flash insecure kernel then using oneclickroot you root it
cf-root is more comfortable and more common
So CF root is better then one click root ? and more easier to apply?

exactly! also with cf-root you get clockworkmod recovery what is extremely useful if your planning to flash different roms
I suggest u use cf root....
I tried both and what was funny is when i did oneclickroot it unrooted once i rebooted.
Cf root is easy to apply....just make sure u use the file that goes with ur version of the fone

1 Cfroot

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

no downgrade is not a complementary, u can dwnld the .tar file of the latest siyah kernel v4.1.2( not the .zip file) and flash the same using ODIN. after that u can use the new CWM recovery of siyah to install any custom rom of ur choice, since siyah kernel is brick bug free
i don't have root permission now,can i flash siyah anyway?if yes,after that,how to obtain root?

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

i used this http://download.chainfire.eu/229/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.zip and worked just fine
edit: i used the odin included inside the .zip and put the root file at PDA
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
