Method 2c is what you are looking for. By the way, this is a sticky in the general forum.
1. Rooting is not firmware dependent, the method to root is almost the same across firmware
2. Installing games does not require rooting.
Thank and do you think this video here is besically the same things that ill be doing?

[Q] Can I root my Galaxy SII, I9100BVLPE 4.0.4 T-Mobile UK?

Hi, It's my first time on here and I would be very grateful for some simple help please.
I have a Galaxy SII on T-Mobile UK, I9100 BVLPE 4.0.4, and I would like to remove the T-Mobile logo seen when switching the phone on and off, and would also like to remove the bloatware, so I, the owner of the phone, can choose what apps i want on it.
Do I need to root, can my specific phone be rooted? Please direct me to some very simple instructions which explain step by step how to do this.
Many thanks in advance for your replies and kind help, which is much appreciated!

Samsung noob looking for root advice

Hi there,
as I'm totally noob on Samsung and I don't know really nothing about their devices - my brother in law gave me his business S3 (GT-I9300) for his vacation with the order to get him the current rom flashed.
Now, as I'm a HTC fanboy this is really pain as I'm currently trying to figure out what is needed to flash a custom rom.
I know an HTC needs to be unlocked/ s-offed/ rooted - but what about a Samsung?
Heard somewhen some words like Kies and Odin and am trying now a noob proof tool named SkipSoft Toolkit
I really lost overview here because all specific Samsung relevant words and explanations are like Alien language to me....
If someone could just point me to the steps I'd follow like
1. Unlock with ____link____
2. Root with
3. Recovery
4. other steps
I'd really appreciate your help!!
an HTC fanboy
