help with rooting my sprint galaxy s 2

Okay so, I want to root my phone so I can get custom roms on it and get better battery life and better performance, so my buddy tried multiple times to root my phone using Odin, but for some reason clockwork mod isn't going onto the phone. We have tried with debugging on and off but nothing seems to be working. Can somebody please point me to a guide that deals win this or a thread that does or just tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thanks!!

Use the search bar. It might get you somewhere

Wrong place to ask question, but for rooting take a look at here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728

Then you probably shouldn't be rooting. This is the developer forum not a question section. That method of rooting is probably the easiest as well.

Install USB drivers...
Get e4gtauto.zip (and unpack it)
Run "RUNFIRST.bat"
Run option A to root device (and follow prompt)
For CWM use option C (and follow prompt)

If that is too complicated for you, stick to a stock rom.

thank you to everyone who replied my thread and to erik077 for finding that other thread and posting it in my thread. cuz it worked. i successfully rooted and put a custom ROM on my device. I was getting worried cuz it took too long for the phone to load. but i still have one more question. for some reason i have a yellow triangle with a "!" in it on the screen just before the boot animation. can you tell me how i can get that off? thanks!!

Oh FFS! So sorry that it's too complicated for you. Maybe an iPhone would be more appropriate? This is XDA-Developers, not XDA-Please-Hold-My-Hand-Because-I-Can't-Read-And-Figure-Things-Out-For-Myself. You can't even read the stickies that tell you NOT TO POST QUESTIONS IN DEVELOPMENT.
Moving this to Q&A where it should have been in the first place - then closing this.

This sound's a lot like bin4ry's ICS/JB exploit, but the download isn;t working for me. Is it based on his exploit?

This method should work on most devices running ICS/JB versions 4.0.1 to 4.1.1 inclusive. What is posted in the first post is Bin4ry's script. See here.

[Q] Bootloader, CWM & Rom help

I have managed to root my device after the 10P firmware! FYI, I used Android Kingo Root.
After looking into many posts, forums, etc... I have come to the conclusion that unlocking the bootloader is going to be trickier than any other device I have been successful with. I want to install CM 10.2 and CWM 6+, however, I cannot find solid information on how to unlock the bootloader for this unit. I would have liked to install the latest 4.4.2 from AT&T, but the device was rooted prior and AT&T will not honor the phone for the upgrade. At this point, I feel it would be easier to just install a custom ROM instead of trying to put the AT&T stock back into the unit.
Most of the info I see seems overly tricky and doubtful. I have downloaded FreeGee, but, in version 1.9.23 there isn't an option for unlock or disable security,(I have emailed the devs for the app). I also have gprorecovery.apk, but, I am deathly afraid to use it as I cannot find ANY material about it anywhere and I am worried to brick the one phone I absolutely love.
If someone has the knowledge, please share. Also, feel free to add in your experience and pitfalls with this device after manipulating the software. I am not 100% sold on CM, so if you want to suggest a great ROM...Feel free.
I appreciate the help and suggestions in advance.

No unlocked bootloader for the gpro. Sorry dude.

And then reboot to recovery as normal to install the ROM? I have read so much information that states you have to do some special presses of the buttons to get recovery to load. What are you running on yours?

Once you install recovery press power + volume up (asuming you powered down or resetted your device of course) until the lg logo appears ( some white letters will appear on the top left corner, release power button when they do). That will take you to the recovery. I'm. Using a cwm/twrp combo. I flash everything i need with cwm, twrp i keep since this phone has a tendency of going into a recovery bootloop and only twrp can get you out of it. Always keep your flashing files on the internal storage, sometimes flashing from sd card wont work.

just select "Do not show next time" and allow it...You won't be bothered anymore...Although i am not sure why is the app asking for permission...Have u denied any permission to the app or sumthin coz it should not ask u to grant permission for this...

I tried all the combinations and nothing changed. Still popping up. Same happens when Im taking picture with Facebook messenger, every time asks me if it can use the camera.

That's weird, I've never seen that before on my phone. Is that a built in Android thing or is it one of the Asus bloatware apps?

Mee too... I dont think it is either of them... There is no such kinda bloatware in Asus and it cant be built-in android thing as we are not getting this prompts...Maybe he has installed some kinda app which notifies about permissions

Perhaps its that antivirus that Asus included. I uninstalled that right away, as it let me do so.

What antivirus?! I didnt install any of that crap. I found that this happens on zenfone 5 and there is a fix for that.
EDIT. What is the latest firmware? System update tells me is the latest version installed but I thing it isnt.
EDIT 2. Yep there is a newer version available. Ill try to install it and see if its happening again

It was some DrVirus or something like that. I don't remember exactly because I uninstalled it before it had a chance to run.

I updated to new rom and problem has gone

Go into Settings - About Phone .. And tap build number about 10 times real fast to enable Developer Options. Go into Dev options and enable Root for apps &/or ADB. Your other option is to flash a SuperSU.zip from recovery, but that's not needed with the built-in Root already there

bootloop... now what

Wooow.. Might need to try the newest SuperSU zip instead. Is your ROM bad? I'm thinking your ROM may not be on par somewhere, but make sure these Root flashes are new ROM installs as you could possibly have leftover files somewhere causing a conflict.
Edit: Oh! If you have SuperSU already installed, Root management is accessed in Settings - SuperSU or SuperSU.apk

Thanks for the tip. I thought all that kind of stuff had to be device specific.
I did find this: lineage-13.0-espressowifi-userdebug-kernel-20190303.zip, but I'm not sure if it will do the job.
Android Andi recommends using Magisk.
Will check them all out when I have time to flash and restore.
