I didn't see this type of mod anywhere else on our forums so i thought I'd share it.
As a note I did not create it so I am in no way taking credit for anything other than using Google. All credit goes to kest874
With that said: This works for our phone!

Must be a deodexed rom as well. I'm running stock, rooted, deodexed without any issues. Let me know your setup and the process you used to flash. Then I'll try to figure out what went wrong.

Is this just a mod for the actual appearance of the tab...or will we lose the modded multi window function for all the apps? If you get what I mean...

I have not lost anything. I'm using the all apps mod and still have post flash. The only impact is on the background.

Is known that older versions of twrp didn't work worth some of the binaries. The current 2.3.1.4 worked for me. If it continues try cwm.

Working on Why Not 1.0
I can confirm that this is working on my t0ltespr on Why Not 1.0
I had to upgrade my recovery to the new TWRP 2.3.2.3. It wouldn't flash the new recovery through Goo Manager, so I downloaded it manually from here:
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/t0ltespr
Flashed the new recovery and then the MultiWindowTheme.zip

Exynos Mem Bug Expolit

There is currently a bug in samsung kernel that will allow any app to obtain root even on non rooted devices without any prompts this could be potentially be very damaging if it's a malicious app
App to verify if you are affected https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lowlevel.exynosmembug
Temp fix apk *requires root though*

I believe previous exploits like super one click involved running the apk and commands were done in terminal and adb debug had to be checked off so the user should be well aware of it running. I'm not certain but I believe this one will allow an app to get root even on unrooted phones with out access to terminal so pretty much without the user knowing. Well any how I just prefer to be safe.

I rooted jb with it

Thanks. It's not quite what I'm looking for though. I want to be able to install either CleanRom or Jedi X Rom.

after you root with what he posted then go to play store and download goomanager.after that open it and click menu button, then click install open recovery script, wait for it to finish then you can reboot to recovery.

Once into recovery you can flash a ROM. Download the ROM to your ext sd card.

Got a link to that app? I can't find it in the play store.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

I agree with slicingtaco, find the Exynosabuse.apk from Chainfire here on XDA and install it. You will be able to do this right from your SGN2. After rooting, get goomanager from the play store. open goomanager and in the menu choose 'Install OpenRecoveryScript'. That will download and install TWRP which will overwrite the stock recovery, which, after all of this you can install custom ROMS.
Right after rooting, you may have to get BusyBox Free from the playstore and install busybox.
Good Luck!

I just came over from iPhone, but I always jailbroke my phones there. This is much easier to do. It sounds more daunting than it actually is, if you follow the site I provided you will be done in under five minutes with your macbook.
Rooted or not, this phone is incredible. Enjoy!

Interesting. It's worth a shot OP. Worst case, it fails and you uninstall. If it is successful, you can install mobile odin, then get the latest gb27 tar, and money. While you're at it, you will have to flash a cwm custom jb kernel, since you're on ics, and, MO won't flash modems, you'll need a jb modem to use data on gb27. Download the zip though of the modem . Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Hopefully it works for you. I don't see why it wouldn't. Might be more complicated but it worked for me. but of course YMMV. Just follow what jdsingle76 said you you'll be good to go.
