Has anyone been able to root the Bell SGS II?

Hi,

I've got a stock Bell Galaxy S2 that I would like to root to freeze some of the bloatware and sim-unlock my phone, in case I go state side sometime in the future. Problem i'm having is, the guide that is posted at the top of this page as a sticky does not contain any kernel or download information for flashing back to stock kernel for the Bell SGS II. My PDA and Kernel do not match any downloadable ones. Is there another way to root my SGS II or am I stuck?

Information I get from my phone when dialing *#1234#

PDA: GKG2
Phone: GKG2
CSC: CKG2

Build Info: Tue Jul 12

Yes. See my guide I just posted in General.
 
Thanks for the instructions. I havent tried anything like this before. Am on Bell, rooted with the first of the three KG2 files in the XDA link you provided. Root and unlock in under 5 min
