Hello bro...
I have a phone . It's model is SHW-M250K and is currently running Android GingerBread 2.3.6 in galaxy s2 i9100.
I want to root and instal cwm in my phone (and if possible upgrade it ). my signal not work well.

Thanks so much!

This tutorial always works on stock Gingerbread 2.3.x:
1- Download "siyah-2.6.14-CWM.zip" and extract the .tar file using any archiver.
2- Flash the .tar file using ODIN 1.85 (first, put your phone into download mode by turning it off and pressing Volume down + home button + Power button), and you need to select the PDA field for the .tar file.
You are now rooted on stock 2.3 and you have CWM which can possibly flash some new ROMs but notice that if you want to flash 4.4 KitKat ROMs, you need to upgrade your recovery to latest CWM 6.0.4.7 (6.0.4.5 should work too). Good luck

The file to be flashed through ODIN (after extraction of course): http://gokhanmoral.desean.net/siyahkernel/v2.6/Siyah-v2.6.14.tar
You know the drill: Extract, flash with ODIN, enjoy a rooted phone with CWM 5.x.x.x which is quite-too-old now, and I don't see how one can fail using the method. Anyway, go for "update.zip" by simply googling update.zip for gingerbread 2.3 rooting and you should be able to flash that file from recovery with superuser app installed (worked for me on stock recovery back then)

If you are having trouble to search for the latest updates for your s2, I suggest going on samfirmware and search for the latest update(google it, open the website, click check for firmware and select details accordingly.). You will need to make a samfirmware account but after that, you can download the file. The .zip file that you download must be flashed with ODIN.
If you don't know how to install this .zip file using odin, follow these steps:
1. Extract the download firmware making sure that you extract the .tar file from the .zip
2. Open ODIN, if you haven't downloaded it yet, google it and click the xda link.
3. Plug in you phone into your computer making sure it is in download mode (press and hold volume down, home, power)
4. Click on the PDA button and locate the .tar firmware file and select it.
5. Click start
6. Once it says successful, your phone will reboot. Quickly make your phone boot into recovery mode(volume up, home, power)
7. Once you are in the recovery menu, navigate the menu with volume buttons and select and confirm factory reset and wipe cache partition (this will delete your apps, but your files will be kept.
8. Reboot your phone then voila, your phone has the latest stock firmware!
I*can not use Odin because my computer does not search the phone.

Even on download mode? If yes, I suggest using mobile odin and download the files, then put the on your phones internal memory. You should try custom stock roms like Neat rom since a lot of the bloat ware from samsung can be removed. I think to do both steps, your phone needs to be pre-rooted. So you will need to download an app that will root your phone. Search on xda (and search on google) for easy root methods or root app. With custom rom method (and after rooting your phone), you will need to install it using CWM or TWRP recovery (volume up, home, power)
But I do not know how to make root android 2.3.4 without a computer.

Easy, just download the root app( try framaroot) on xda using your phone and install that app, making sure unknown sources are allowed, then run it, tap the required exploit then, you're done. You can download the custom rom using your phone too. But, if you don't want to use your computer, this will take longer to do. Since your phone is now rooted, you can also use mobile odin too! For custom stock rom (4.1.2 neat rom), you will need to use rom manager, download the latest recovery for s2 then install it. After, you need to download a Jelly bean kernel onto your phone's internal storage (search for apolo kernel by Pedestre), then download the custom rom into your phones internal storage. Using the steps I've said before, go into recovery mode, then:
Press install from zip, select whichever storage location you downloaded your files in, select the JB kernel, then once it installs, your phone will reboot. You will notice your phone will not boot properly and will restart back into the recovery. Once booting back into recovery, install the neat rom zip file and then the aroma installer will pop up with all the options you can choose from.
I can not use the computer because the computer does not detect the phone. And I'd like to stock JB 4.1.2, does not want a custom rom. and how to write it stock JB by mobile odin? And if mobil odin must be PRO or lite?

Then you will still need to do the rooting of your phone. When you download the stock official rom from a website like samfirmware (onto your phones internal storage), you will need to extract it with rar for android (you need to extract the .tar file). Then you basically need to open the odin mobile app, select the pda file then your phone should do install the stock rom. Sorry about saying to download mobile odin from the play store, I forgot chainfire (the dev) made it so you needed to download the .apk file from xda: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2719771&d=1398965576 The one on the play store was an optional payment to support the dev.
I'll try. Is odin mobile is safe?

As long as you select the right file for the right usage. (E.g PDA for phone software, etc) if you follow my steps, your phone should be all good. Just make sure you have enough battery during the process.
what about the bootloader? On another forum I asked was it said that the renovation of GB / ICS to JB need to update the bootloader.

The boot loader should already come with the stock rom package. When I flashed stock ics on my device, it automatically downgraded the bootloader for me. Note: sometimes, stock firmware packages can have more than one file included, but they have the uses stated at the end of the file name.
So this means that you do not need the bootloader I upgrade I can immediately upload the stock JB?
DarNex said:

Once again. The bootloader is automatically updated during the upgrade process. No additional steps required to update bootloader. So yes, you can just flash JB immediately.
And if he needs to upload cwm rom for mobile odin?

For flashing back to previous stock rom download the stock rom from sammobile or samsung-updates.com and flash it with Odin.

I know this topic . But Samsung has new security on new Stock Firmware updates. All users have new updates said that .
Please explain it ,
I have downloaded old stock rom on sammobiles. But How to flash it ?
as a normal flashing ? without root ?
Sorry I am a beginnger user for this.
Dear friend,
Install USB Drivers or install Samsung Kies . kies will install the necessary drivers automatically.
1. First be sure USB Debugging is checked in ur device ( Settings/Developer Options/USB Debugging )
2. Extract the Odin file from the zip.
3. Open Odin3 (Run As Administrator).
4. Put your device in download mode. To do so, press Volume Down And Home And Power Button all together and when it vibrates release Power Button but keep others pressed. You should have a triangle with an android janitor while it's saying downloading ..VOL UP TO CONTINUE...
5. Now connect USB to PC ,you should see a blue rectangle with COM:xx and saying Added. It means that your device is ready to be flashed!
6. Go into the PDA section and select your .tar file.( stock ROM file)
7. Dont check any other option (F.reset time and Auto reboot are checked by default).
8. Now click Start.
9. When it's finished, it should say that "Res OK" or "PASS"in Odin.
10. Now the phone will restart and you will have the stock firmware as per your requirements.
You don't need root to flash ROM thru Odin.
If you want to root search for framaroot.apk in XDA .

just thought id put this up since i haven't seen it posted.
this is the full OD3 stock Rom tar.MD5 file
it is odin Flashable.
I will warn you alot of people are saying once they upgraded to this bootloader they couldnt get OA6 roms to flash so beware.
any download mirrors would be appreciated
Here is another link but this one you have to unzip then use Odin to flash the tar file inside thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61215093
download
use odin 3.10.6 but i believe 3.10.0 will work also
put the file in the AP slot and flash
you will most likely lose root but here it is any way
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=cd08ce789eb6b040!141
It should be noted that if anyone flashes this firmware they will NOT be able to flash back to a previous firmware.
i will also note that some people could gain root with chainfire and flash custom recovery through odin then restore backups of OA6 but again beware

Wasn't sure about chainfire's root method on this version since I'm not running it, so hopefully it still works. @Ramer has uploaded this as well to a file hosting site so if he doesn't see this, ask him for a link for his download link so you can add a mirror site to the OP as an alternate if you like.

Here the file I put up on AFH: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952615017
I have to question the title of this thread though. This is NOT flashable in recovery. It's the zip file that must be unzipped on a PC and then Odin the tar file. It's the original one from Sammobile.
The OP gives correct instructions, I just think the word flashable is bound to confuse someone.

thanks for the mirror it says right in the OP "Odin" flashable
also in the instructions it says to open odin use the ap slot etc
plus if anyone tried to recovery flash it would just fail, no damage done
thanks

You are correct. It's probably just my hesitation to using the word flashable and odin at the same time. I've lost count of how many users see a zip and think "I'll flash this"
Tried this and I still show BOA6 software and baseband ? Also after I installed it on odin I didnt like it much so I was able to flash MOAR after I flashed OD3. weird

Looks exactly like BOA6. They just added some extra security features like activation lock to the security settings.

Pull your battery out. wait a few seconds. put battery back and boot into odin/download mode. vol down+home+power

Had the same problem, wasn't able to flash back to BOA6 using odin had to flash OD3 to get the phone back and running
not sure about rooting, but my hotspot is still enabled from previous root that i loss when updating to OD3
You can still flash OA6 roms as.long.as.you have a custom recovery and.root

Yes. Once flashed don't reboot. Pull the battery and go back into download mode and flash twrp. Img in the ap slot
You can find the file at Moars op under recovery and odin
After you flash the custom recovery image pull battery boot into recovery from recovery hit reboot. It will then prompt you that there's no root and would you like to root. Choose yes. Tada

I did as instructed, but the TWRP that i loaded did not ask for a root option, it did some updates, then it automatically reboots the phone, I pull the battery, then reboot it back into recovery again, and reboot it back into recovery from the recovery screen, it ask me to install super user, i say yes, then reboot back into system now it has a icon that says Superuser installer, I click on it and choose TWRP, gives me error
