Root S2 on Three

[Romulous]

Hi folks.

Apologies for the lame first post.

I am thinking about rooting my New S2 on Three [Ireland], and have been reading the Idiots guide, which is very self explanatory, however, for the life of me, i do not know which rom i need to use with Odin.

I am currently running ICS 4.0.3 and the Kernal version is 3.0.15-I9100XXLPQ-CL223505 se.infra@SEP-94 #3

I have been trying to understand which kernal i need to download but am at a complete loss.

Could some kind soul please throw me a 'very' big bone to help me out.

Also, the advantages of rooting appear to be endless, but would i expect any hassle from my network provider after rooting my cell.

Many thanks in advance.

The only hastle you'll get from your provider is getting it repaired under warranty as you've flashed an unrecognised firmware on the device.

Simple solution is to flash a branded stock firmware back using checkfus
located at The webversion of Check Fus 2.0. Load it up and then select on the right hand side

Android
GT-I9100
Ireland (Three)

Click on check firmware and then download

This will allow you to download stock android which can be flashed using Odin.

Many thanks for the reply.

I now have root access, phone unlocked and all the bloatware [stock] apps that shipped with the phone removed.

Titanium pro installed, jig dongle ordered and extremely happy.

Kudos to you my friend.

Thanks again.
