Hello
i need some help... i live in israel..
i just bought samsung galaxy s2 and i want to root it...the problem is i just cant find the right kernel.. my phone kernel is JHKJ1
i have searched for like an 2 hours without success..so if someone could help me i will be grateful.
I think you should flash it with the stock rom (first step) which has rooted kernel (second step). use odin. don't use ICS rom.
Root with this,its a KJ1 CF-Root kernel
http://download.chainfire.eu/47/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_LUX_KJ1-v4.4-CWM4.zip
You can find out why here.

dude thanks a lot!!!!
you really helped me... you are the king..
but may i just ask..what does the superuser do?
does it gives me some special things?..coz i have now on my phone CMW and superuser but when i log in to the superuser it gives me only apps --> CMW..
and thats all... does it right?
CWM is the recovery on your phone, used for flashing ROMs, clearing cache and various other advanced features.
Superuser is used to allow or deny a given app ROOT access, and also to keep a log of when those privelages have been granted.

Yeah mate all explained.One of the things that you need to know about the CWM app is that it has the function to make a nandroid backup.This is a backup of your complete firmware as it is now on your phone,contacts,kernel,apps,everything.What this does is makes a backup for you to use if something ever went wrong while doing a flash then all you need to do is enter into revcovery mode and restore the backup and your will be exactly as it is right now.I suggest you do one to have a backup handy.Never know when you might need one.You can delete and create new ones as you go.
1.Open CWM app (give it permissions of course)
2.Select "Backup"
3..Select "Accept"
4..Select,if asked, "int.SD" (this is your internalSD.Sometimes externalSD backups dont register when you need them)
Now it will do a backup and you can reopen the CWM app and see it by selecting Delete or Restore.As you go collecting more apps and so on you can delete and create new ones.If for some reason your phone blows out you can restore the latest backup made by entering in CWM app or if you have done something really bad then by holding Volume up+Home+Power to enter into recovery mode.A good app to download now is Titanium backup.It also backs up all apps and data so if you ever flash a ROM you can pass the apps+data to the new ROM.
Before installing Titanium install busybox.Dont forget to give these apps root permission.Install from market,open and install only busybox.The Apps no.

Titanium is good because you can uninstall system app from your carrier that you dont want that annoy you

Hi!
Im new here. I see that there are many experienced members here, and i hope that could help me solve the problem.
I have rooted galaxy s2, JB 4.1.2 and kernel siyah v6.0b5.But suddently my usb storage,sdcard0 and micro SD Card became protected.
I can't move or delete files. (error access denied) Can't download anymore from google play, and applications can't save on sdcard0 anymore.
But my phone is rooted and i can use all applications that i have installed.
Also when i connect phone with pc, and if i want to delete any folder, i get a warning 'the storage is write protected' (sdcard0). But phone is rooted.
I already did factory reset, and i try to format usb storage but files always come back. I also rooted again I've put all my knowledge, but i can't find a solution.
sorry for my bad english
Can anyone help me?

Before installing im also deleted all permissions from system recovery (apollo kernel).
And then downloaded and installed from sammobile my stock firmware, but no luck.
Is there any other option, because I want my phone back?

i have the same issue right now. i need help. i dont wanna lose my phone...please does someone know the solution for this?
OP have you find it?
You both need to flash stock firmware in download mode with Odin as many times as you need to until your phone works normally again. If you have problems with Odin or flashes appear successful but the phone still won't boot normally, search for Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread & try the stuff in that thread. Specifically, If you're in a situation where flashes appear to be successful but the phone still bootloops, flash the 3 part firmware linked to in his thread (only if you defnitely have an I9100 though; if you have another variant, don't).

ROOT BROWSER
I somehow copied root browser from pc to sd card, and then deleted most of folders on sdcard0. And suddenly all permissions disappear.
ah and Root Browser need permission from superuser before deleting something.

can you explain that in details? I can't seem to erase anything in my internal usb storage. says it's write protected. thanks in advance
Okay so last night I went ahead and downgraded the phone back 4.4.4 and waited for the update. I got on 5.1.1 stock file. I then went ahead and rooted the phone with KingRoot. But I have come to find that I like supersu better and was wondering if there is anyway that I can switch the two. Thanks all for any help.

try this app below
Because you're on Kingroot, go ahead and install XZDualRecovery, and flash my prerooted zip file. It has SuperSU and some nice enhancements so you won't have to worry about a thing.
for avoiding losing of your data, you can backup your data using twrp and download tigerhoods twrp backup 5.1.1 in thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/.../twrpbackup5-1-1-23-4-b-0-319-rooted-t3331193 and add your data files in that backup and flash. Enjoy.... hit thanks
Edit : thanks tigerhoodsfor backup

I believe that's redundant since you will just be overwriting your data once you use Tigerhoods' backup. Not to diss him by any chance, but his ROM is missing some important parts of the framework which makes some functions buggy.
It is a lot more safer and easier to flash my zip for a cleaner start.

a APP can replace KingRoot to SuperSU
named“快让我用SuperSU”
describe：现在的安卓设备获取Root权限的方法已经少了很多。不过幸运的是依然有不少不错的获取Root权限的应用。其中之一便是Kingroot。虽然它在这方面做的确实不错。我们并不能确定它是否在收集用户信息并发送给中国的服务器。所以说了这么多之后，这个应用的功能就是移除所有的Kingroot附带的应用和附带的二进制文件并安装SuperSU来让你更新超级用户二进制文件和其它等..
google translate：Now the Android device access to Root permissions method has been much less. Fortunately, however, there are still a lot of good access to the application of Root permissions. One of them is Kingroot. Although it does well in this respect. We are not sure whether it is collecting user information and sending it to China's servers. So say so much later, the function of this application is to remove all of the Kingroot applications and attached binary files and install SuperSU to allow you to update the super user binary files and other.

It is much safer and cleaner to just flash the prerooted 5.1.1 zip. Will clean kingroot and have SuperSU.

I went ahead and tried the file that was posted in post. #3 and it looks like it just took off king root and didn't replace it with anything. I tested my phone to see if it was rooted with root checker and it said that it wasn't. So now I'm guessing that I will have to root the device again with king root to get the root back. Thanks all

If you want stabilization and SuperSU installed, just follow my guide to install the prerooted flashable zip I prepared that is the best solution to your dilemma. It's really simple without needing to do any unroot and such.
I have to back everything up and then try and flash that rom. Or I guess I could try and root the phone again and see if that works. I'll let you all know. Thanks.
Hello, i need help on how to fix a bug ive encountered with my root. No matter what i do i cannot mount system as r/w, i cannot update subinary normally or with twrp, i cannot uninstall the subinary or any other root tools like busybox. I think i encountered the problem trying to flash an ota update using flashfire. So far nothing ive tried works, ive tried uninstalling from withing the supersu app, ive tried manually deleting the files but as i said my /system folder is locked in r/o mode. Ive tried factory reset and all that does is soft brick my phone. Please help and ask for any information that may be needed and i will provide it to the best of my ability. Thanks

Would you mind posting a link to the zip i need to flash, i did try flashing one named "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.78-20160905010000.zip" but it didnt do anything.
Is it because i need to rename it? Also where should i place the zip before installation? I tried flashing from my download folder and the root of my external sd card and neither worked.

yes v2.78 is the correct one , it doesn't matter where you put the file but it's better to place it on your sdcard not ur internal memory

So what am i doing wrong for it to not work? While in twrp when i flash it it says that is succeeded but when i boot back into system nothing changes except the supersu app is gone and i have to reinstall it, but when i open it it still says i need to update the su binary.
Edit: thank you so much! for trying to help me but nothing is working. I posted my problems with a lil bit more insight in hopes that there are (no offense) more advanced users there that may know exactly whats wrong and how to fix it if its even fixable
Update - thread can be closed
Problem fixed, to fix the problems i was having i had to download the stock system files for my device and flash them, after that just installed the latest supersu 2.78 zip and remount problem is fixed.
Hi Dude , It is a good news that samung galaxy A9 pro 2016 get android oreo update. Oreo come with some new feature in samsung experience 9. Here is a guide how to root it.
*Dont forget to enable OEM unlock in developer mode.*
---> Original post for nougat and mashmellow by ashyx
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...wrp-3-0-2-1-samsung-galaxy-a9-pro-sm-t3426701
Firstly we need twrp, go and get it from
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767135545
Simply flash it via odin.
Then root it by flash latest magisk from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
After that you will see that twrp cant mount data. You have to format data (go to wipe - format data - type yes)(It will erase all your data SO BACK-UP) and flash the boot image patcher to prevent device from re-encrypt every boot
This is the working boot image patcher by zackptg5.
Download DM-VERITY AND FORCE ENCRYPTION DISABLER
And you will get file name
Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_09.02.2018.zip
Download link below.
http://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe
And now simply reboot and enjoy
IF IT HELP YOU GUYS , PLEASE HIT THANKS BUTTON , THIS IS MY FIRST THREAD AND THANKS WILL BE ENCOURAGING TO ME.
Thanks to @ashyx for twrp , @Zackptg5 for Universal DM-Verity, ForceEncrypt, Disk Quota Disablers and @topjohnwu for magisk.
boot image patcher by zackptg5
Still confuse on this, which file to download and flash?
Disable_Dm-Verity-09.02.2018.zip or Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_09.02.2018.zip
Firstly, I couldn't understand that...
"Simply flash it via odin.
*But no verity no encrypt _ashyx is not working anymore. So dont flash it.*"
Testing and everything works fine but problem with titanium backup. TB read my phone not rooted.

I think you choose completly uninstall magisk through an app and install the latest magisk beta v17.3 step by step in the guide. The ploblem should solved I guess it was a ploblem while you install magisk.
Why it's not like olds? Using one click root or just with TWRP? Maybe we should wait a little bit more. Cause it seems risky to me. Also, need to erase all datas etc.

Device is encrypted you cant get twrp without erase your data and one click root is not working with this device. This one is hard to root cause of the encryption. So forget those kingroot kingoroot framaroot.
