How to Root & ClockworkMod Recovery Samsung Galaxy S2 on Android 4.0

Just days after the Ice Cream Sandwich firmware leak XXLPJ hit the Internet, Android developers got to work to find ways to root the Samsung Galaxy S2 updated to the said firmware. As always, our friends at XDA Developers came through. Thanks to Chainfire, member of XDA Developers, there is now an easy to flash kernel that will not only root your Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 but will also install ClockworkMod Recovery and Superuser.


This method is only compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S2, with the model number GT-I9100 and running on XXLPJ firmware. You can check both your model number and your firmware version through “Settings > About Phone”. It’s important that your phone model and firmware matches the specifications above as attempting this rooting process on other phones may lead to bricking.
oke let's do it!
