How To Install And Root Original XXLPB ICS Leak On SGS2

Posted by Ada S. On Tuesday, February 07, 2012 3 comments
Sorry to keep you waiting for the installation and rooting guide of XXLPB! Again, if you're new to installing official leaks and rooting, let me remind you:

  1. Installing this XXLPB leak on your phone will not increase flash counter.
  2. Zero flash counter means you keep your phone's warranty.
  3. Rooting the XXLPB will break the warranty.
  4. Unless you know how to use a dongle to reset your flash counter, say goodbye to your warranty after rooting.
  5. The XXLPB leak is still on beta phase which means it comes with a few bugs. Here is my review of the XXLPB.
  6. Because it is an official leak, it has the fugly Touchwiz on it. Fugly as in f*cking ugly. If you're immune to Touchwiz, feel free to flash this ROM.
HOW TO INSTALL XXLPB ON YOUR SGS2
  1. Download XXLPB at this link
  2. After download, extract the files. Password is samfirmware.com An ODIN installer already comes with the package. Just run the Odin3 v1.83.exe file.
  3. Launch ODIN on your computer and copy the following files accordingly.
    1. PDA - I9100_CODE_I9100XXLPB_CL99600_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
    2. PHONE - MODEM_I9100XXLPB_REV_02_CL1101286.tar.md5
    3. CSC - GT-I9100-MULTI-CSC-OXXLP5_RST.tar.md5
  4. Connect your phone to the computer and wait for ODIN to say "Added!". When it does, click 'START'.
  5. After ODIN finishes, your phone will reboot and you are now running XXLPB on your SGS2 :)
HOW TO ROOT XXLPB ON YOUR SGS2
  1. Download CF-Root for XXLPB here.
  2. Extract .zip file and you should see a file named CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5.tar
  3. Launch ODIN on your computer and place the .tar file on PDA.
  4. Connect your phone to the computer and once it's been detected by ODIN, click 'START'.
  5. When your phone reboots, it will now have a yellow triangle with an exclamation point on boot image. You now have a rooted phone running on XXLPB!

  3. Sorry I didn't see your comment until now. You don't extract .tar files darling. You flash them from ODIN once they're .tar or .tar5 :)
