S2 newbie

Hey,
So I got my S2 today and was hoping for some help with rooting it.
I have a T-Mobile UK S2 which came with Kernel 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 (Kies tells me I'm running the latest firmware). Now I wanted to install CF-Root so I could install CyanogenMod on my phone but I'm not sure which version to use. From what I gather I should be looking for a DD version of cf-root but there isn't one...
Just moved from a rooted HTC Desire, but using cf-root, Odin etc is all alien to me!
Thanks
EDIT: Wrong forum >_>, can someone move this to Q&A please?

Welcome mate before someone else comes on and maybe flames you it's always recommended to search the forums for any questions you have more often than not you'll find the answer you are looking for, if you still cant then by all means start a thread and people will be happy to help.

[Q] Help for a noob please!

Hey guys, I have recently inherited a note 3 (SM9005) it is however running the xnote ROM (version 13). I however want to shift back to the stock ROM (but still remain rooted).
I need a fool proof guide to do that, as I don't what to mess up the phone.
Thanks in advance and let me know if any further info is required.

Bump? If not that, I'd just like some instructions to update xnote to its latest build. And yes I've checked the xnote thread, but im still unsure on how to proceed as I don't want to mess up my phone.

[Q] Please help me with rooting & flashing

Hello there!
I have a Galaxy Note 3 i9005. I used to have it rooted (towelroot) but I accidentally updated the phone to version 4.4.2 which sadly removed my root. I've had my phone for about a year, and I feel it's time to spice things up with a new rom, but I find myself lost in this whole flashing jungle.
So, my questions are, is it possible for me to safely root & flash my phone? If so, could anyone point me in the right direction? I've tried searching a bunch but it's very hard to find in-depth guides explaining the process in detail. I don't even know if such a guide exists for the Note 3.
I live in Sweden so I don't think the phone has a locked bootloader if that affects anything.
Please help me.

I've rooted several new note 3 with this method..http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/root-root-xxufnf4-stock-firmware-knox-t2840150

I managed to root it with that method! Knox is 0x0, thanks for the pointer man
Now, I'd like to know how to flash a custom rom. I've been looking a lot at different custom roms, however I can't seem to decide which one I want. Besides, I don't even know if I'm able to flash my phone since I'm running Android 4.4.2. All guides takes for granted that you have some knowledge with flashing, which I don't.

Steping up my G2!

Hello, i am looking for help to find out what i need to set up/have in order to flash a custom rom.
All i have is stock G2 with the latest update, phone model is LG-D802, android version is 4.4.2 and it not rooted.
I know first off i need to root the damn thing, but if any of you could point out some kind of post or guide with some kind of step by step info of how to root and after that how to continue with a flash of rom that would be awesome.
I`ve spend some time around the forum looking for such post but couldnt find one, and i am kinda scared to do this on my own since i`ve soft bricked a lot of my old devices.

easiest method, is to use the KDZ method (huge thread on it here) to get back to jelly bean, then download towleroot. one click root.

A bit of help needed.

Hello Mates,
So basically I've been wanting to root my phone for a while now so yesterday I finally decided to do it n right after I unlocked bootloader my phone gets soft bricked (Thats what I think anyway). It's stuck on the "Yureka Plus" Logo. Anyone Know how to fix it? I've googled but whatever I do doesn't help me n its the same.
.I have the STOCK ANDROID version of the Yu Yureka Plus and not the cyanogen one. It would be really helpful if someone told me what to download and some basic steps which iI have to do cause I am basically a noob with this.. I will be really greatful to you guys!
Also, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section.
Thanks
