Guide to root my Galaxy S2

by Kenzi • 19 Jun 2012, 09:22 • Journals
Hey Anonymous,

since I recently bought the Samsung Galaxy S3, my S2 is of "no use" at the moment so I thought I could give it a shot to root it :)
Anyone got some knowledge about that? Any tips/tricks? Good guides perhaps?

Why did you get an S3 when your S2 is still in working condition?

Apparemment, on utilise pas cette expression en Belgique :XDDDDDDDD
Quand tu demandes à quelqu'un s'il a pensé à consulter, ça sous-entend s'il a déjà pensé à aller voir un psychologue :X:d:x:D
