Maybe it was mentioned before, just a heads-up, I was trying to root with method 1 on stock 4.1.2 on I9100, and I was entering stock recovery, running first busybox uninstaller, then the su-root update then reboot, but it failed to root every time (even tho the script was saying root completed).

Then I rebooted, entered recovery and applied only the su-root file and rebooted. It worked like a charm.

will this method work in i9505 stock?

It should, since it says most phone running on ICS/JB.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Flashing the zip will work

However, only i9100/n7000 have an insecure recovery accepting non Samsung signed files

All other phones you need a custom recovery. All this was repeated undless times

There is nothing personal in that thread except some useless code

Why do bother update supersu when you root from stock, which is the aim of this thread? You can update from market.

Anyway, this is not a dead thread. If it is not updated, it is because it is not needed
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] blackrose1:
Yes your right

......

1_All method works on both ics and jb?

I extract stock rom but

2-I dont know where is the zimage in 3 parts file(is it in modem or cod or.. ?)

3- and also in one part file

To root via stock kernel

There is some thing like zt.img?

160kb?

4-whats the diffrent of super su and busy box in method1?which one is better?

Big thanks

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Danpamio:
1 - Yes. But dont forget to never factory reset on ICS.

2 - It is in PDA (code) part.

3 - In one part file its an "zImage" file. Around 8Mb.

4 - SuperSU and Busybox are totally different things. SuperSu (or Superuser) roots your device and Busybox is a toolbox needed sometimes by some apps, BUT usually when an app needs busybox, it comes with a tiny version of it (Titanium Backup for example). Its your decision (or need) to install Busybox. (Better install the file with both in your case)

I'd like to update busybox and install it fully, how could I do it? If I install busybox from market will I suffer any kind of trouble? what's the correct way to update it?

What about busybox apps in markert? which is the best?

Install CWM

I have rooted my GT I9100 by installing the zip file Root_SuperSU.0.96-Busybox.1.20.2-S2-signed.zip. However, I want to install the CWM recovery as well. So what should I do? Will simply flashing the zip file cwm-touch-6.0.1.2-i9100.zip or cwm-non-touch-6.0.1.4-i9100.zip do the job? And according to what i have understood, the above CWM files are temporary so, can we make a nanoroid backup of our ROM and proceed to flashing new ROMs using it.

I'm trying to root my S2 which is running Android 4.1.2 XWMS3 and stock recovery.

My first question is which file should I use? the one with the -S2? or can I flash the one with a newer SuperSU without any risk?

Root_SuperSU.0.96-Busybox.1.20.2-S2-signed.zip

Root_SuperSU.0.98-Busybox.1.20.2-signed.zip

I guess both would do the trick, but I just want to make sure.

The second question is that I can't see any file when I enter in download mode and I choose "install from ext. sd card", the card has been formatted as FAT32 on windows7 and its content is fully visible from Android.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] NIK3SH:
You can choose any of those two files.

And try formatting your sd card within device. Settings / storage / Format SD Card.

And then flash this zip thru stock recovery...

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
It is same as with any cwm zip file. If your zip file contains a script that uses a wipe command on data or cache partitions you are at risk
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] igos2:
... and I see a lot of scripts have a wipe cache command ...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Yes, and all those scripts can trigger a brick on any cwm recovery, unless you use a custom kernel with a fix. Or just do not use any current 4.0.4 fw

Sadly, method 1 needs a cwm image. So, this method is not really universal, unless a cwm image is available for your phone

Ok, if I may make a suggestion:

Rather than pointing here: http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager

This link has the zip versions which I think are required for it to work (will try it).

Have no clue where I can find a zip version for the GS3 recovery.

Hi etique,

Thanks for testing this, I have a few questions:

1. What's wrong with the first link?

2. I didn't see any image for the S3 in the second link, which one did you try?

Thanks,

Z.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] etique57:
Hi zevele,

The first link points only to .img files. So they are not flashable through the stock recovery.

The link I provided has a .zip representation, which I assumed should be flashable. I've check the one provided by Phil in the first post for the GS2 and compared it to the one on this page and they are the same.

So I took the one for the GS3 : recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.0-i9300.zip

But it didn't work (signature problem).

Am I missing something?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zevele:
I have no idea... may be try another version? except that I guess some one with more experience should advice...

Ohamn did you have any success?

Thanks,

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
For now, S3 only have cwm images to be flashed with odin. The zip releases are still missing signatures. Post a follow up on s3 forum
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] etique57:
Hi Phil,

Sorry, don't want to be picky ;)

But how did the S3 users make it work, as you were told in another forum? (do you mind pointing it?)

Using the Method 1, I mean (i.e. flashing through Stock recovery, not incrementing the counter, etc.)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
You always need cwm for method 1. For S3, until a temporary cwm is released, this method will increase counter when you flash cwm. No solution for now. But you get proper root on stock kernel. You can always reflash stock kernel after root to restore stock recovery

Remember, i posted this thread under i9100 as i cannot provide much support for other phones
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zevele:
How do you get the temporary CWM? Is it only a matter of signature or does it require more than that?

Thanks,

Z.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] etique57:
Got it, thanks Phil!

Zevele, for now there is no PC-free possibility to root the S3. You need to go through Odin and thus trip the counter (for me it doesn't matter, I was more interested in the PC-free capability), until they come up with a possibility to sign off the CWM zip package. You can always reset the counter anyway, using Triangle Away from CF.

You can look at here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695238&highlight=signed+cwm

If you're under Linux as I am (or Mac), you'll have to use heimdall.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ohamn:
Ok. What a pity! :(

I guess I have to wait then.

What I found interesting with this method was that the counter wasn't changed, no pesky yellow triangle and the possibility to revert to unrooted state easily.

Will continue to follow this thread though!

Hoping for a quick "fix" so we have the same solution as for SGS3!

Keep up the good work Phil!

Please tell me when do you get signature error: in cwm when you flash the rooting zip file? Maybe your specific cwm needs signed files.
