If you don't need the camera , cm9 or aokp will be the best choice.
If you need , rebel rom is great
I use this rom to play temple run and fifa without lag .

I remember seeing a flashable cwm recovery.
That means you can flash the cwm recovery with the stock recovery.
Let me check out with this ....

Please give me the links

Yes you can flash it without cmw, you can use odin instead. After all, even if you flashed it via cwm, you will have to flash cmw again after you successfully flashed your desired rom.
If you want to flash it via cmw, it should be on zip file. Put the zip on your internal memory/sd card. Reboot to cmw and select the zip file. On flashing cmw here's the guide, read it carefully and be sure not to skip anything. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467128
Its all in there. Hope this helps.

And btw I suggest root your wonder first using stock recovery, as I have heard there is a problem rooting wonder using cmw.
Anyways, if youre going to flash a rom, root and cmw will be wiped. So you have to root and flash cmw again after flashing a rom. Just an info.

I already root it. But i want to know how to install cwm with or without odin. Because acro said the best way to flash cynagonmod 9 is by cwm. So how do i install cwm on my phone?

You can install cwm recovery via ODIN. I provided the link on my previous post, it will show you how to flash cmw recovery on your phone.

Here posted again. All needed files are there. Just read it and dont skip any.
Flashing cmw recovery is like flashing a firmware, just follow the steps and you wont have any problem.
Additional info: Before flashing cmw recovery, be sure to enable usb debugging. System>applications>development>usb debugging. Then you can proceed on flashing.

Root without odin

There any .zip flashables that i can root with to root. Cant find any

In order to flash custom roms you need a custom recovery and to get one you gotta flash it via Odin...
I think you're asking for an impossible lol

Sure, it's called SuperSUv0.96CWM.zip and is only flash-able from custom recovery (CWM/TWRP).
No matter how you slice it, you WILL need ODIN at one point or the other to root these Samsung phones. You have 2 methods:
Flash custom recovery via odin, then flash supersu.zip (Up's custom counter by 1) But can be erased with triangle away
Or
Flash the full rooted stock image via Odin (Will give you root, but no custom recovery. No added count on flash counter)

Oh ok. Just got the phone and dont have my laptop for another week, so it looks like im gonna have to wait for a littlebit

Don't you have friends or family?

You don't need ODIN to install TWRP recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1809313
And after you install TWRP recovery, you can root with the zip file that you can d/l from the following thread:

Yes, you are right. Goo Manager does need root permission. My bad.
There's no way I can think of to root without ODIN then.

Can't you use the adb method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766552 then flash the superuser zip?
lol nvm

Want to root my friends Sprint s2

But I am quite confused about the methods used here. There is a lot of chat about firmware that my friend doesn't seem to have. All I know he has ics. I.have rooted my HTC sensation, Samsung galaxy s3 and a nexus 7 with no issue. But this stuff makes no sense. Am I even in the right forum?

That seems like too much work. Don't y'all have a stock rooted Odin .tar.md5? And the process for installing recovery seems dated. Once rooted you should be able to install twrp or cwm through room manager or goo manager. Or am I wrong?

then this is your process:
download the rom and gapps to your phone's internal sd card.
2) go to download mode and ODIN this to your phone:

2) reboot
3) clear dalvik,cache,factory data reset
4) Flash CM10 + gapps

[How To]Root Sprint GB27 Jellybean

Now that we have the latest official release for the new TouchWiz GB27 4.1.2, I figured I would update this thread for those that have downloaded the update from FL24 to GB27 via Kies.
This guide was written for Sprint devices however the procedure is the same for Boost and Virgin variants of the Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch. The only difference is the kernel you flash after rooting.
You WILL need to use a PC in order to gain root access
DISCLAIMER
DO NOT USE AGAT RECOVERY TO FLASH ANY AOSP ROM. THERE HAVE BEEN CASES OF HARD BRICKS.
I WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING THAT YOU CHOOSE TO DO WITH YOUR DEVICE. THESE METHODS HAVE BEEN TESTED AND ARE PROVEN TO WORK. FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS MAY GIVE YOU UNEXPECTED RESULTS.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
How to root with SuperSU
You will need...
Odin3_v3.04
Source built Jelly Bean kernel
SuperSU-v0.97
Stock GB27 kernel zip - optional
SuperSU from the Play Store
1. Using a Windows XP or greater based computer, download and extract Odin to a directory which you are comfortable using. You can extract to your desktop if you want. I personally use my documents folder.
2. Power off then press and hold volume down and power to enter download mode, plug in your USB cable after opening Odin. Click on PDA to select and flash the source built kernel.
3. Download this file and reboot to recovery by pressing and holding volume up and power then flash SuperSU-v0.97.zip
4. After flashing the SuperSU zip, flash the GB27 stock kernel and reboot. This is now optional, the source built kernel works perfectly and can be used as a DD.
5. Download SuperSU from the Play Store.
6. Open the SuperSU app and update the binary.
This method WILL trigger the yellow triangle and increase your flash counter by 1 count.
____________________________________
How to root with Superuser and busybox - similar to garwynn's one click
You will need...
Odin3_v3.04
Source built Jelly Bean kernel
subusybox
Stock GB27 kernel zip - optional
1. Using a Windows XP or greater based computer, download and extract Odin to a directory which you are comfortable using. You can extract to your desktop if you want. I personally use my documents folder.
2. Power off then press and hold volume down and power to enter download mode, plug in your USB cable after opening Odin. Click on PDA to select and flash the source built kernel.
3. Flash the subusybox zip in recovery
4. Flash the stock GB27 kernel in recovery and reboot. This is now optional, the source built kernel works perfectly and can be used as a DD.
This method WILL trigger the yellow triangle and increase your flash counter by 1 count.
____________________________________
One-Click Method
You will need...
GB27 Rooted Nodata
1. Download the Rooted Nodata from the link above.
2. Using a Windows XP or greater computer, open the One-Click package.
3. Power down your phone and then press and hold volume down + power to enter download mode. Plug in your USB cable.
4. Click start.
This method WILL NOT trigger the yellow triangle or increase your flash counter.
You now have root access. Congratulations.
Do you have an ugly yellow triangle after performing one of the first two methods? Do you want to get rid of that and reset your flash counter back to 0?
Chainfire has an app for that!
TriangleAway v2.90 XDA Version
Please consider donating for his work and buy Triangle Away from the Play Store.
Triangle Away on Google Play

Ok thank you finally someone gave me a accurate answer lol been trying to figure it out. Thank you for helping out at least now I know that its in the works I can live without a few things for a bit.

If I had the know how, I'd try making a repack. And as far as I know, agat was startinghis computer from scratch due to issues building from source.
If there isn't anything by next week, I'll ask for some help on making repacks.

After rooting with option 1 on OP I've realized on Settings -> About Device -> Status. Device status (all the way at the bottom of section) went from official to custom. Is that Samsung's new addition to find out who's flashing since everybody now is aware and uses triangle away? Lol

Odin

Any roms here that arent cwm/twrp flahable zips that I can flash using odin and have a kernel with cwm or twrp? I'm coming from the sgs4g and haven't done anything to this phone yet. I looked around in the dev threads but unless I overlooked I only see cwm and twrp roms.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

Why would u wanna odin when u can flash via one of those recoverys?

To me it's easier to just odin a rom with a custom recovery and have root then to go through any other process. Then again I haven't had a lot of spare time so I only glanced over the guide to do it for this phone.
