Alternatively, bit more hassle, but,
There's a very handy app called Framaroot in the Apps and Games section which should *theoretically* root any 2.3.6 for our phone. I don't know whether BUJVG would be supporte, although I don't see why not.
Use that to root, then download Semaphore GB and SGS kernel flasher, both in these forums. Install SGS kerne flasher, flash Semaphore GB (or any other GB kernel that could perhaps support your firmware, last time I checked kernels were firmware specific. So you may have to do a bit of digging around to see if there's a kernel that supports all.)
If not, try find a CWM flasher (and don't use ROM manager on Play Store, that's not very helpful...) of some kind.
Bit more hassle, and considering your phone's firmware seems to be localised and not a more generic firmware it may not work, but hey, worth a shot.
If that doesn't work, follow the guide compacity posted.

Is your phone an i9100 Galaxy S2 by any chance if so look for I9100XWKK2 Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread Stock ROM

Thank you all for your reactions,
It was some search work and a hassle but it worked

Go here and flash the GIngerbread Semaphore kernel, you will get root and CWM or use framaroot app, if you only want root.
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.​

you don't have to root first, you can flash the JVU ROM and CF Root, to get Root and CWM at one go.

the downloads are listed for you on that link, you need to read and comprehend it, if you are flashing the JVU ROM, the kernel is already attached with it, if you want to flash the kernel only already mentioned earlier download gingerbread semaphore kernel latest version will do.

Similar error.
I have the same problem. I tried to use a CF kernel, but the one for build "gingerbread.DDJVB" didn't work and I followed the steps in this thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1805526" (Second post.).
The flashing was successful and it installed CWM and superuser but whenever I boot into recovery, it ends up in android recovery 3e instead of CWM. I ultimately want to use the latest nightly rom for android 4.2.2. Is there a way for me to get into CWM? Or maybe get the rom without using CWM?

[Q] How To for the Galaxy Note GT-N7000

Hello,
I am new to the XDAdevelopers forum and don't have much knowledge of rooting or installing customs roms to Android phones.
I currently own the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 and just looking around some videos I would love to have some customs rom installed on my phone, such as the new Jelly Bean roms that are out now.
I would love to know on how to root my Galaxy Note if there is a Noob Tutorial for rooting the galaxy note and maybe a Noob Tutorial on how to install Jelly Bean rom that is currently out (any suggestion on which rom would be great)
As I said I am a noob and don't have much knowledge on how to mod your android phones and any help would be greatly appreciated
FYI: Looked around the forums for the while, I couldn't find anything simple enough, I bet there is somewhere in the forum, not sure if I was looking correctly >.<

There is a free version for people who cannot buy from market, look here or you can also use k-tools for flashing kernel its free on market, extract the kernel to zimage and put on root of internal SD and then flash it using k-tools.

As long as you are on any safe kernel you can flash any JB rom, no matter if you are on any TW ICS, GB or CM9/10 roms. I am on CM10 right now and flashed it directly on stock LRQ ICS with Speedmod kernel.

yes, it needs some files to be downloaded manually, mobile odin pro downloads them automatically. Why don't you use K-tools, its free and very easy to use. i flashed Speedmod last time using k-tools only.

Yes, select kernel (.tar or zimage format) in kernel field and then hit flash firmware. make sure to check if the kernel is flashed after restart before doing any wipes and all

boot in cwm recovery and do a full wipe, this should solve the problem or else reflash the JB rom.

What you need to do is to put it to download mode(hold down volume home and power off keys together to enter download mode) then use odin to flash cf root.

[Q] Root galaxy s I9000

Hey
Need to root my galaxy s but dont know how!
I was trying to download superoneclick but everytime i download it the download never finishes or is corrupt
Model Number:GT-I9000
Firmware Version:2.1-update1
Baseband Version:I9000XXJM1
Kernel Version:[email protected] #2
Build Number:ECLAIR.I9000XXJM1
Is there any tutorial out there for rooting the galaxy s?
Cheers
Hey,
Rooting can seem like a hard thing, and don't worry, the first time I had trouble as well :L
Have you tried z4root? Its a neat little apk that supposedly roots any phone on 2.1. Thing is though I don't know whether it works for XXJM1 or not.
Alternatively what you can do is upgrade to Gingerbread and root. And I think that'd be the best thing to do.
1.) Upgrade to XXJW4 (2.3.6) by means of Odin. If you don't know what I mean, feel free to ask.
2.) Search around these forums for a thread about CF-Root. Read Chainfire's instructions carefully and select the right file- if you don't know which one I'll find it for you. The file should have JW4 in it though, so that hopefully is easy enough to find...
3.) Unzip the file. In it you'll find a .tar file. Using Odin again flash this .tar file in. Again, if you need help, feel free to ask
And there you go! Rooted, on 2.3.6.
I'm not quite sure how to root the I9000 on Eclair, so that's the only advice I can give....
Hope I helped though

Hey,
Are you talking about which 4.1+ rom you should use?
Quite obviously there's CM10 and CM10.1. Take your pick of 4.1.2 vs. 4.2.1.
Well many people recommend Slim Bean http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780071 because its very small (only 60MB or something like that), very fast and stable.
Apparently Mackay Rom is really good as well.
If you want the feel of Touchwiz and the SIII, C-Rom Bean and C-Rom Bean Mix are available in 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 for each. Again, your pick. A lot of people report this to be very stable as well.
There's tons more roms for the lovely I9000 so you'll have to do some searching around for one that you'll like. But those seem to be the top Jelly Bean roms around...
Sent from my GT-I9000
Ok, many thanx for the info
Going to do the C-RoM Mix 4.2.1 v2.zip 186808KB that came out today
Found the installation guide on androidauthority.com, guess that guide will be here on this forum somewhere but i just googled and came out there
How long does it takes for flashing is ready, used C-RoM Mix 4.2.1 V2, screen is showing for 20 minutes logo "Semaphore" , is that normal ...
edit: my pc reconizes the phone as Android ....
edit 2: did flash c-rom mix again and BINGO, works
got no imei anymore, messed around with different ways to get it back, it's all gone, no back up nothing, just a working phone but cant call
what to do ....
:victory: :laugh: yessss, rooted back to 2.3.6 and its all working again -> thanks for [HowTo] Officiele XWJW5 (2.3.6) via Odin (NL/BE) from GirlKillu from androidworld
now I wil flash it to latest slim bean version, this time I will make it 100% sure to back up efs folder
