For upgrading you don't need to root first. Update first with a firmware from sammobile or intratechs thread, and find the corresponding CF-root here. Flash both firmware and CF-root with (mobile) Odin

Latest ics leak is XXLPH, latest gingerbread is XWLA4 (not sure about that one)

Great job Chainfire!! I would really aprreciate if you can build the new ITV_LA3 with root and CWM.... Thanks a lot! :cool:

cf-root does not root KJ3

finally got the guts and I followed chainfire crystal guide...sgs2 XWKJ3...all went smoothly in 25 sec...the final result was:all threads completed. (succeed1/failed0)...but the device is still not rooted. any help

thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Yeah, that should work fine for you.

What do you mean it's not rooted? Visual confirmation?

Try installing Superuser from the market...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] X-Plosiv:
Thanks, did that, worked.

Now when i turn it on I have yellow triangle though, but I already ordered Jig so I'll fix that when it come.

Anyway, I used root explorer to zip file, then I copied it somewhere where I can see it on PC explorer, and i copied efs.zip to my pc. Is that good backup of EFS or? And now atm I'm in CWM and I'm doing a backup, that I'll save on PC as well. Binary counter says 1 after flashing this kernel.

I hope I did good just for any case in future:

1. Did a backup of EFS.

2. Did a backup in CWM.

3. Copy/paste backups on 3 different PCs just for any case. :)

I'm new to this, but have learned - ALWAYS save efs :D

EDIT:

Just tried EFSPro, and did a backup of .img and .tar.

Is there anything more I shall backup just for any case? Got original rom backup as well (downloaded from sammobile)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Rinoko72:
Sounds like you've got it covered with the "backups" :D

I'd say your ready to try something new now.. ;)

XILA3

Hello everybody.I hope that Chainfire will come back soon.Now we all see how

important person he is :)

I also need root for XILA3

I don't have a lot of knoledge about this

but for now i fix this with this option:

1)I root XILA3 with cf root XILA2

2)remove that pesky warning triangle with chainfire instructions

3)then i make some modifications(battery mod,sound off for battery full and bootup sound)that i need.

4)then i flash back stock kernel XILA3

Now I have the phone with my wishes and root is still there,

only cwm is gone

For now i am happy

Sorry for my bad English

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dchn2:
that's for the info, yoda (aka geko95gek). all back to normal now. hope i don't need to unmount and remount every time when i need to reboot.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] djg269:
After removal of the SD card it would'nt mount at all, so i ectracted the stock kernel and flashed it. Mounting is no longer a problem and its still rooted without the triangle.

If you flashed a stock kernel you've lost cwm recovery. The app is only a frontend to the recovery accessible through volume up + home + power (same as download mode but using vol up)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] modr:
Hi folks,

thank a lot for the providing CF-root. Thats great. I still got one question. It is mentioned in the introduction:

NOTICE: CWM does not currently backup or restore kernels

Does it mean that a full "NANDroid like" backup does not contain the kernel yet or does it just mean that it doesn't support separate backup of the kernel?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] modr:
The current CWM version does not yet support that. You will need to wait a bit. For the time being you need to use Odin or Heimdall (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755265
