sorry mate, i mean the doomlord V4 and older tool. i'm trying not to flash the insecure kernel yet.
*
i never tried it on 64bit, but theoritically it should work on any windows platform as it is script and binary only, refer my guide in my signature as the first post is outdated.

just try the doomlord, as it wont do any harm even if u try it hundred times

hi ppl..im running on DZKJ2 and wanna root with DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit.

It says i have to have the adb drivers install..My phone can be connected to PC but NOT Kies, so can i still proceed? and after i have rooted will all the data gone?
*
read my guide in my signature link

KIES MUST be installed as to get driver support only.

doomlord rooting will not change any data. so no data loss.

but i urge u to read more and more.

random question: how do i unroot incase i wanna send the phone to warranty? just being cautious before i root my new SGS2 =D
*
it is very easy, just full wipe and flash back to stock using odin.

for rooting method, u can follow my pdf guide in my signature, basically two routes, one will void warranty and needs usb jig to fix. and another will not void warranty but the steps are a bit lengthy (doomlord method)

Thanks for replying creezalird but i would try I9100G's method first to root my SGS2. doesnt matter right i still can unroot the phone regardless of the method i use to root it. ami correct? =)
*
the first page is outdated..see my pdf guide in my signature..it is the same method but with updated links and steps. i even implemented new method for some people.

yes, unroot is easy. just reflash stock rom. but beware with binary counter as it can only be fixed using usb jig and u need to buy those

aight thanks man. I think i'll use the longer method wouldn wanna spend money to buy another USB jig  rclxub.gif


Added on May 21, 2012, 4:04 pmI have a question @creelizard, if i were to flash back the stock firmware (which i am assuming is 'unrooting' your phone) according to your guide i need to get odin pro which i need to download. any other methods which dun require me to get odin pro?
*
no, i clearly said that with mobile odin pro, u can do upgrade/downgrade with benefit of having automatic rooted.
but if u want to use normal odin (PC), it is doable also.
ps : just google for black version tongue.gif

QUOTE(Eternalbliss @ May 21 2012, 07:24 PM)
I tried the doomlord rooting method and midway when the software wanted to push the apps to be written it cant be done. any idea how to solve this? @creelizard
*
firstly, which firmware are you on right now? as i said in my guide, only certain lower firmware can be used with doomlord and sometimes need to be used together with memory crash method.

if u are getting a line like "hellions with blue flames" , this means that u have unsupported firmware and must downgrade with odin to proceed.

if u are getting a line like "nothing interested found", this means that u need to re-run with "memory crash method"

till today, NO ICS for G version is released. so dont go around and flash another rom from another device as u will soft/hardbrick your phone

@creezalird

the early mention about that rooting process to eternalbliss..
i think i going to do that on my younger bro phone, seems ics no update on G version i think it gonna takes month..

i have 1 question, is it possible i backup his phone system data like game etc? (stock phone haven root) when i do root process as i mention early it will clear his system data..
*
regarding backup, i think it is not possible without root access, which firmware has the phone right now?

i think, u just use the flash rooted kernel directly as this will not wipe any data, after that u can backup everything with whatever u prefer, ie TBP.

but of course u will get the infamous yellow triangle and binary counter, just buy usb jig then, rm10 only maa..hehe

OH GOD I FINALLY ROOTED MY PHONE! THANKSSO MUCH CREELIZARD AND EDDIE2020 rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

i have another question though... lol

i want to remove unwanted default softwares but i wanna back up before i do it. I am currently not planning to use any custom ROMs. Do i need to do the 'add CVM support' step before i backup creelizard? of i could just backup normally using samsung kies?

YET AGAIN YOURHELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

as u are still kind of noob here, i would suggest u go for flashing rooted kernel with ktool to get CWM recovery access and afterward do full backup from CWM. Recommended kernel : streetware 0.4.3 or superatmos 3.3, my pdf guide is a bit outdated with the kernel/rom list.

to remove stock apps after backup, u can use titanium backup pro.

Rooting for ICS (i9100G), of course update to ICS using odin first.

Method 3 : 1 + 2, no yellowtriangle or binary count increasement

1. Do method 2 first.
2. Download LP7 codeworkx, extract and put the zimage inside root sdcard
3. Install ktool, flash the zimage.
4. Result : rooted + CWM , no usb jig involved, ^___^

i think so far, in less than a day, the battery is very much the same, just make sure u change the governor to hotplug and noop as IO if u are using LP7 kernel
