I have been seeing that many people seem to prefer to flash their kernels using CWM instead of ODIN. I prefer using CWM over ODIN whenever possible so here is a solution for you.
This is just a simple .zip that you can use to flash your kernel via CWM.
Myself or the maker of the kernel you're choosing to flash are NOT responsible for anything that may happen to your phone a s a result of user error or anything else.
Instructions:
1) Extract the zImage from the ODIN tar (I use 7zip)
2) Download and open this .zip using 7zip
3) Simply drag and drop the zImage extracted from the .tar or in the root of this .zip.
4) Boot into CWM and flash.
5) Be sure to thank the person that created the kernel you are using.
Note: This will delete the cache so the first boot up will take a minute or so.
PLEASE make sure there isn't a reason the kernel creator wants the kernel flashed via ODIN before doing this. I don't know if there really is one but just in case.
Update: Zip updated per Calkulin's advice
Enjoy....
No offense but I believe people are interested in using zips without using a computer period.
I know I would. I have no problem using odin but would love to simply use recovery.

Speak for yourself and not others. Also, a little research and effort on your part would show you that you should be able to accomplish the same thing on your phone to get the zImage into the zip for flashing in CWM.
Thanks Rob.

On that note some of us like to experiment with different kernels on the go so having a library of .zip kernels saved to my sd card is brutally useful instead of having to wait to get home to switch the kernels

Guys,
I'm not sure if I really understood it... I found a boot.img from a rom that is not from the rom I'm currently using...
Just double checking, to flash it, all I have to do is put the "boot.img" file inside the "Generic Kernel ZIP for CWM.zip" and flash it through CWM?
Is this only for Epic 4G or it will work on SGW as well?
I'm sorry if this is something obvious, it's just that it sounded too simple, easy and good to be true...

I don't get it... if you are going through the trouble of pulling zImages why wouldn't you just Mobile Odin or HC-kTool it?
Just sayin.. live and let, I suppose.
And if I'm not mistaking, boot.img is for AOSP kernels and zImage is for stock-based. Correct if necessary.
SGH-T989 UVKID // Insecure // Root // Busybox
What does all this mean?
As many of you know, we can already root our phone's but if you want to bypass all the extra steps ClockworkMod brings with it, I've got a kernel and an easier method just for you.
Features
Code:
#
# ADDITIONAL_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES
#
ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=0
ro.debuggable=1
persist.service.adb.enable=1
Code:
/sbin/*
/sbin/userscript.sh //runs the script that installs root
/sbin/su //the superuser binary we all know and love
/sbin/superuser.apk //a neat little app to manage all your root permissions
/sbin/busybox //the busybox binary we all know and love, that keep developers happy
Once you flash this you will have a fully rooted T-Mobile Galaxy S II, that also carries the benefits of an insecure kernel.
Why should you root your SGSII?
There a whole bunch of reasons a person would want to root there brand new SGSII. Any and all of the root applications in the market, some of the best apps at that, require you to root your phone.
By rooting your phone you also gain access to flash roms and themes that are popping up around the Android Development forum, by flashing ClockworkMod Recovery with Rom Manager.
What is better about this root method compared to Slayher's original method?
Since the root is maintained mostly inside of the kernel, removing root is as easy as flashing the stock kernel I posted and uninstalling the Superuser app.
Downloads
You can reference the second post on how to flash the kernel itself, but you can grab it from here now.
If you like my work..
and wish to donate you can buy me my very own T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II by using the details posted here.
How to Flash
We are going to be using Odin in this explanation to flash the stock kernel to your phone.
Downloads
First you are going to want to start by downloading all the needed files onto your computer and then place them onto your Desktop.
Samsung Kies
Odin3-v1.85.zip
SGH-T989-UVKID-Insecure-Root.tar
Process
Once you have everything downloaded and on your desktop, you are going to want to first install kies.
After this is done you should restart your computer for proper driver installation.
Next, extract Odin to a new folder on your Desktop. Leave the tar in the form it is.
Now, open up Odin by double clicking the .exe in the folder you extracted it to.
The most important step is now, you need to put your device into Download/ODIN mode so your computer will recognize it and be able to flash to it. To do this simply turn your phone off completely (or pull the battery). Then you are going to want to use the following button combination to force your device into download mode:
Hold the volume up/down and power button all at the same time.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now ODIN should have recognized your device ( it may take a while for the drivers to complete installation so don't panic the first time).
Lastly, we want to click on the PDA button and then search for the SGH-T989-UVKID-Insecure-Root.tar we download earlier and placed on the Desktop.
If all of the above has taken place you are free to hit the Start button.
Done!
If all has gone well at this point the flash should be proven successful and your phone should reboot like normal.
If so, please feel pressured to give yourself a pat on the back, that was tough!
You da man!

I noticed the original 784MB I had dropped to 778MB after flashing is this normal.
TY
Rooting this way is ridiculously easy, especially for those of us who don't want to muck about with a custom CWR or custom ROM just yet. Basically, all I wanted to do was to have Titanium Backup running and to delete that annoying tethering manager app!
You might want to clarify that you press both Vol+ and Vol- simultaneously then plug in the USB. The other way you mention (Vol+, Vol-, Power) puts the device into recovery not download mode.
Kudos!

No, once I am able to work with those on Telus to figure certain things out I will also develop there, do not flash anything from this forum though.

Yes, you should notice that the Superuser application is installed upon flashing and a few root binaries are copied over to /system/bin so the drop in size is due to that, and actually occurs with any root method, not just this.

NO. One click roots do not work on Gingerbread. The only way to root is with Odin. Google how to root samsung epic on EL30 and follow that procedure exactly. Or the video on how to root the samsung epic on FC09 which is a quicker method using my FC09 deodexed ROMs.

If you just want cm9 there is no reason to root first, unless you have data you want to back up first. If you don't mind losing data just flash cwm5 with odin and then flash the rom and gapps in cwm. Be aware of what changing to MTD will do. There is plenty of info around here about it.

So GanBei,
How do you root yours?
I watch the video above but the tutorial is for FC09.
Its different with yours, FC19.
Do you just follow the video there? Is it OK?
He used the method for EL30 that installs the rooted kernel. There was never any source code released for FC19 so no new rooted kernel.

I got a simpler method for devices like our E4G that has a CWM recovery flashed without rooting first, here goes:
Odin CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7 (Searce the forum for tar file and tutorial on this, it's easy)
Download this: http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip , latest stable flashable Superuser for ARM devices, put it in sdcard
Power off and boot into CWM (hold volume-down then camera then power-on)
Install zip from sdcard -> Choose zip from sdcard -> [the name of the zip downloaded] -> Yes -> (Flashing goes...) -> Back and reboot
All rooted then.
At least it is working, not like the SuperOneClick, and it's closer to stock than Odin-ing a Superuser kernel (keeps all FC19 features)
With that method he will lose cwm on first boot. He would still need to remove the install-recovery.sh from system\etc.

This happened to me once before and i was able to get it back by using droid explorer to copy the framework back. First odin the EL26 stock CWM kernel also download FD26_AOSP.zip as well then once you are in CWM go ahead and open Droid Explorer then find the framework-res.apk from AOKP M5 and drag it to the correct folder system/framework/. at this time grab your phone and do a fix permission under the advance tab in CWM, also drag that kernel anywhere in your sd card so that you can flash it and make AOKP bootable.
Once you get into CWM and if droid explorer does not detect your phone, please find the "Reboot" option in CWM and then replug in your phone to your pc and Droid Explorer should now see it
Good luck! i know this seems like a lot and it might just be easier to odin back to EL29 and start over.

I downloaded this file directly from a stock, un-rooted, bootloader-locked AT&T SGH-I337 SGS4 utilizing Heimdall 1.4. Use at your own risk.
NOTE: You MUST remove the .txt extension from the filename. This is the actual PIT downloaded via Heimdall but in order to upload as an attachment to XDA I had to add the .txt extension.
