Can I root

[DaDobernater]

I have a galaxy s2 with Baseband : I9100XXKP8 and kernel 3.0.13-I9100XXKP8-CL42141 se.infra@SEP-53 #3. This is the Andrion ICS (4.0.3) rom

Would this be a insecure kernal and can I root my phone on this kernel and what program should I use I have S2 root shall I use that or a different rooter?
Thanks in advance

You appear to be one of the privileged few on ICS. If you have not rooted (ie its a new phone) then this must be an official release. Did you buy this from a store, or 2nd hand? Chances are its 2nd hand and has already been rooted with ICS flashed on.

Download "root check" app from the market to test.

By the way. The best method of rooting is Chainfire's cf-root method
Flash using his KP8 cf-root file if you happen not to be rooted already

No I did it last night using odin I have never rooted and I brought it new and thanks

And will doing it this way replace my ics interface ?

Use odin to flash the CF Root KP8 Kernel from Hawkers link, you will still be on ICS.

Make sure you pick the KP8 version of CF-Root. It is a few threads down from the top (Post #8)
