Why wait? Why don't u do it yourself? If you have an unlocked bootloader then it's pretty much very easy. Just go to the dev section and you will find an easy TUT for rooting devices with unlocked bootloaders. I upgraded my device yesterday then unlocked the bootloader then rooted it. Now I'm running ICS with root and custom kernel so that I can overclock it too. Do it yourself buddy. Don't wait for others to get things done.

If you have rooted GB, you can upgrade to a rooted ICS - i did it thanks to this thread since i wanted to keep my bootloader locked.

If you dont have rooted GB, there are plenty of threads that explain how to do it, basically you would need to downgrade to .58 or .42 and root it using zergrush metod. Afterwards go to that link and flash it to rooted ICS (just follow the steps in that thread)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
Hey Guys,

So... a little while back I updated my SGS2 to the official ICS through Telstra.

It is an LP4 kernel, and I looked around for a rooted version of this to suit my new firmware... never found one so I tried rooting using LPS - which worked.

After a little while I am starting to notice some strange and very frustrating behaviour (frequent reboots, bad battery life, lagging/freezing, etc). I am not sure if the LPS kernel is to blame, but I am just wondering if someone can please advise me if there is a more suitable rooted kernel which matches LP4, or if someone can let me know where i can download the official LP4 kernel (telstra) so I can flash it back and see if it fixed my issues.

Thanks for any help.

Looks pretty good thanks man. I would rather just flash back to stock LP4 instead of factory reset.

Any idea where i can get the stock kernel?

Thanks again man.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
Yup that's the one,

And if you can't find the kernel, guess you have to flash again

since you are already rooted, you can use K-tool, or CWM manager to flash "zImage" file of the above kernel
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
thanks for the reply mate.

i hate to pester... but can you please break it down for me step by step on how to do this?

Ive tried a bunch of different things but i cannot get K-tool to find my .ZIP file (the one I downloaded from that link). Do i need to extract from the .ZIP file? Rename? Where do i put it on the sdcard? etc.

Rookie questions i know - but im struggling to find a good guide/tutorial.

thanks mate.

Also... will i loose root if i flash this way? There was another root method i have used... where i flashed the insecure kernel, then flashed the secure (original/stock) one over the top with certain settings and it allowed me to maintain root.

thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
I think root will be ramined after flashing the stock kernel from K-tool or CWM manager,

you have to unzip the file until you get "Zimage" file, be carefull when you handle this, dont mixup with any earler zimage file which may already be on your SDcard or PC, because the file name is same "Zimage" for all the kerels once its extracted,

before flashing the Stock Kernel, you dump your current Kernel with K-tool, you will find a "Zimage" file on the root of SD card, cut and paste that from SD-card to another safe location, inside any folder..

then paste downloaded and extracted Zimage of the Stock kernel, and select flash..

you will be able to flash rooted kernels from CWM Manager (Zimage) again..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
thanks again for the help ZACQ8.

Followed your instructions, flashed the alternate kernel, maintained root. Magic.

Now ive just got to monitor the system behaviour and see if i can notice any improvement.

Thanks so much dude.

Anyone know how to do this with an unrooted LP4 telstra phone?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
Gday mate,

I did as follows....

Root using the LPS kernel following the instructions in this thread (Instructions - ODIN (long)).

Then flash back to original LP4 kernel using ZACQ8's instructions as above.

The idea is that you temporarily flash to an arbitrary kernel - simply to obtain root. The you flash back to your original kernel to ensure your ROM/firmware doesnt get bothered by a different kernel.

Cheers.

Hi lamensterms@hotmail.com

I just used kies to upgrade my firmware and noticed that I have similar build as you SGS2

I am also using Testra

My build after upgrade:

Samsung Galaxy S2

Android Version - 4.0.3

Baseband Version - I9100TDVLP3

Kernel Version 3.0.15-I9100TDVLP4-CL345054

Build Number - IML74K.DVLP4

Your System

Samsung Galaxy S2

Android Version - 4.0.3

Baseband Version - I9100TDVLP3

Kernel Version - 3.0.15-I9100XXLPS-CL294511

Build Number - IML74K.DVLP4

Can you please help me with this, your input would be appreciated.

Are you using the kernel listed under your description or is it the LP4 and what is your experiance ( modem effectivness)

I also installed and tried ktool 1.56 and when opening the app gave errors (no root access)

Did you have the same issue.

My aim is also to stay with this Firmware but get root access. any thoughts

Thanks

Visit this thread for easiest rooting guide: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1501719

You don't even need Odin or kernel again with the above method since all your are looking for is root access only.

Good luck

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
Hi sparkrat,

Sorry for the confusion – yes, I had reverted back to the stock LP4 kernel using ZACQ8's method from post #7. I just forgot to update my signature.

Checkout my post #10 for a summary of the instructions.

Simply put… you have to flash an un-secure kernel to obtain root… then you can use ktool for flash back to your current kernel. That is what I did. And it worked fine and maintained root.

After a while I started getting data drop-outs and a few force closes and random reboots, so I smashed the phone over my knee. Not sure if the issues were due to the rooting/flashing.

Not my finest moment.

Alternatively… Jokesy’s method looks really good – if it works. So thanks for that Jokesy.

Good luck mate, let me know how you go.

FYI, I'm running my phone completely stock with no root.

I don't have a SGS3 yet, but I am wondering about these little details as well as they will determine the usefulness of SVoice...

If the phone is locked (in my pocket) and connected to a headset with a one button mic, can the button be used to activate SVoice? If so, is it a double tap of the button?

Obviously SVoice may choose to prevent you from doing certain things while locked (dialing numbers, etc), but it would be great to play a playlist or toggle shuffle for the music app using SVoice while the phone is in my pocket.

Likewise, if the phone is in a car dock, but the screen turns off/locks, can I still double tap the home button and voice a command for music control or reading my text messages?
