HOW TO ROOT Samsung Galaxy S2 for T-Mobile


HOW TO ROOT Samsung Galaxy S2 for T-Mobile



With Ice Cream Sandwich just around the corner – the Samsung Galaxy S2 for T-Mobile and its Galaxy S2 siblings are likely to have the highest bounty to get ICS on it as soon as humanly possible. If you’re thinking about wanting to truly customize your Android phone – and this is currently one of the best Android phones on the market – then look no further than rooting! Check out our comprehensive guide here!
That’s right, there is finally a way to root your Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile, thanks to some of the forum members on RootzWiki’s forums. For those of you new to Android, rooting is amazing. It basically give you the ability to have total control of everything on your device, much in the same way an administrator would have full access to a computer. Right now, if your phone isn’t rooted, you’re really more like a guest. Rooting allows you to remove or freeze bloatware — like Verizon’s VCast and other carrier specific apps — that are annoying, and you are unable to delete without being rooted. Oh, and then there’s everyone’s favorite – flashing custom ROM’s!
So lets get to how to root your Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile.

3: Select ‘Start’.
4: The file should flash to recovery and reboot the phone.
5: After the reboot, mount USB storage and copy the Superuser.zip file to the SD card.
6: Reboot into recovery with the adb command adb reboot recovery or power off, unplug the USB, hold down the Vol Down+ Vol Up buttons and press Power.
7: You should boot into Clockwork recovery.
8: Perform a nandroid backup from the backup/restore menu.
9: Select ‘Install ZIP from SD Card’ choose the Superuser.zip file, and let it install.

Once your device reboots, you should be rooted with SuperUser access, and able to do almost anything with your Android device now. Now you can flash new ROM’s to your heart’s content.
