That's the question, bro! I9100G has a better battery life and cooling system. But I'm always at my home and not a business person, so battery life is not my priority - it's compatibility and stability of I9100 what made me to have that.

My friends always told me that it's nearly impossible to replace it now after having it with you for more than 1 month. But, I took the challenge and got it replaced in 8-10 days.:)

You didn't vote above, man! Please, that doesn't cost and also it's not for my sake. It'll help people like you.

PLEASE VOTE! :)

Love you.

Best rooting methid is Doomlords easy rooting kit

This methid works on XWKJ2 after a small alteration in rooting kit. This methid doesnt work on LA1 OR LC2 firmwares.

NO INCRESE IN BINARY COUNT AND NO YELLOW TRIANGLE

AND IF U R ALREADY ROOTED THEN BEST METHID OF FLASHING KERNELS ARE

-INITIAL CF ROOT FLASHER

-CWM

-HC-KTOOL

If u flash kernels by these methids then there will not be any increase in binary count.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paras Lehana:
Hi! Thanks for your unwanted-and-already-known information. Now, Mr. Developer, let me tell you something.

I'd written on the post that it is the most common method. Secondly, I did also said you ask me for different methods. Thirdly, I'd also written about the binary counts and the triangle. Fourthly, I'd tested it on LA1 and guess what.... IT WORKED!!! Yipeeee!!

Huh!!

Well, Thanks!!!

Unable to root after installing kernels

Hi,

I installed Lucifr kernel1.54-300Mhz.I was trying to root my device(i9100g),hence i used ODIN and through PDA i was able to pass it.Now i see its still not rooted.I checked using root checker basic and it says iam not fully rooted.

Not sure whats the problem and i am pretty new to this process.I have not installed any custom ROM yet,i just installed a rooted kernel Lucifr.I was not able to root using other kernel like superatmos as well.

Currently this is how it shows up:

Model:I9100G

Android Version:2.3.6

Baseband version:I9100GDDKL1

Kernel Version:2.6.35.7-gfadf4fe-dirty-Lucifr_1.5uv-300Mhz

root@hanny-laptop#1

Build Number:GINGERBREAD.XWLA1

Please help me root the device using kernels.

Thanks

Ajith
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paras Lehana:
Ah! Strange... You were able to flash a rooted kernel man....and still....no root access!!!

Well, try flashing it again.

Did you follow all the steps?

Do you see the yellow triangle?

How many binary counts do you have?

Try wiping cache and data!!...

It's the most recommended step sometimes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manishsingh4u:
Flash SuperRomv3.0 or GalaxyRomv5.0

Same thing happened to me yesterday. Root Checker Basic said that for me too. Then, I booted into CWM recovery mode's backup and restore to install GalaxyRomv5.0. It worked great and I got full root access with an amazingly beautiful ROM. Then, I flashed lucifr 1.54 again over it and wow. Try it, I am just a naive user but, thought about sharing my experience. Let me know, it it works for you too bro.

Manish

EDIT: I used usb jig to remove the yellow triangle and reset the binary count.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paras Lehana:
Wiping cache and data is sometimes really important.

But dude, I said that strange because I had had exactly the same ROM and kernel specification that my indian bro gave above and it worked for me...

Really got to check this!!!

AGAIN STRANGE!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creezalird:
considering it is still heavily developed kernel, lucifr, it is not strange that this happened, sometimes it works if u did not flash the kernel for the first time, it looks like it need to be flashed with any other rooted kernel first, and after that flash lucifr, of course wipe cache/dalvik is common knowledge.

i could not verify this myself as i am mobile right now and i have also some quirks with lucifr kernel, i will just wait till hanny is fully professional developers, currently sticking with superatmos kernel 3.1 (basic, but much stable)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcajith:
Hi Manish,

Is it possible to flash SuperRomv3.0 without a rooted kernel using CWM?

Thanks

Ajith
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paras Lehana:
Ya! Exactly! Thats why I said wiping that all should be done. But i didnt think that the users hadnt wiped all that - its really a common knowledge. But if they had done that then ite really strange! Because that indian has all the same specs what i had plus he was flashing the same kernel what i did.

Then ... Its really gonna be checked out shouldn't it
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creezalird:
CWM recovery is available only after u have rooted the device by any means.

so it is not possible
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcajith:
Manish,

I tried the same steps and wow i am able to install GalaxyRomv5.0 with full root access...But i am not able to install the kernel lucifr 1.54...i tried flashing using CWM and also through ODIN..but did not flash this kernel..Let me know if you know some thing about this issue..i also wiped data/cashe etc before doing it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geekeek:
Can someone please tell me how do I root using Doomlord kit? I don't prefer the increase in binary counter and yellow triangle.

My baseband is DDKL1 and build is XWLC2.

Basically I downgrade it to another firmware using odin where doomlord works? This firmware won't brick the phone if it's not compatible?

And later flash a custom kernel using ktool to get CWM. Is this right? :|

Root Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100 - Doomlord's Easy Rooting Toolkit Method

DOOMLORD'S EASY ROOTING TOOLKIT

CREDITS - DooMLoRD, creezalird.

Last Updated - Thursday, March 01, 2012

Advantages :

Will not increase binary counter or trigger yellow triangle. Even will not brick the phone in case of failure in rooting process. Very safe and recommended.

Disadvantages :

A bit longer process than the other rooting method.

Only rooted the phone with no CWM support. But CWM support can easily be done.

HOW TO:

Download the toolkit first (DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit)

Replace the "runme.bat" with this edited "runme.bat"

Tick USB debugging (settings->Applications->Development), if unticked before

Tick Unknown sources (settings->Applications)

Using windows task manager, "end task" ADB.exe and all KIES related software if running

Connect phone using provided cable, ADB driver for the phone will be installed automatically assuming you have installed KIES first

Double click the "runme.bat"

Memory Crash Method

If not succeed, please reboot it manually as it will not reboot automatically after the last unsuccessful script. Now add these extra steps :

Same like above, do not run the script yet

Now run applications from your phone, any applications will do, and close them with HOME button, not the BACK button

Run as many applications as you can, check with "Task Manager", the RAM usages should be at least 500mb and above

Now run the "runme.bat"

RESULT: Rooted (Superuser) only.

I'm asking the (odin) method in the thread starting mate..will that work correctly in my firmware..?

If yes will it support all the custom roms and kernels..

Thanks for ur Reply..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paras Lehana:
Custom ROMS don't depend on the kernel or firmware update. Like, you can flash Gingerbread even if you are having that ice cream sandwich.

In a nutshell, you can flash any compatible ROM.

For kernels, baseband and firmware upgrade matters.

I recommend you to flash superatoms v3.1 if you are really on a latest stock firmware.

2) flash rooted kernel using odin

I'm planning to downgrade to DZKJ2 from XWLC2 (Indian firmware) using Odin and then use doom Lord. (for firmware just select and PDA, right? And any bootloader installation required?)

Mobile Odin requires root so I change to a different kernel using that? Wondering how CWM will get installed. With the new kernel I presume.

Just root your phone using any compatible rooted kernel or use the doomlord method...it would work on your current firmware. Ask me if you want me to recommend a kernel for you.

You have to choose only one option - Doomlord or flashing a rooted kernel.

Now, I'm talking about a rooted kernel. Superatoms DZKL3 is the kernel I had recommended you.

But if you wanna use the doomlord method, theres no need to flash a rooted kernel. You just need to apply it on KJ2 or below.
