SMS – Use “SMS Backup & Restore app”,
Contacts – Sync with the Gmail application,
Call Log - Call Log and Restore
Songs, Videos, Files – Copy to internal / External SD Card,
APN and MMS Settings – Note down from the path “Applications > Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names”
- To facilitate smoother and uninterrupted rooting process, ensure that your phone is left with the minimum of 60% battery charge which you can find from the path “Settings > About Phone > Status” where Battery Level will be mentioned.
- Rooting will need your device to be connected with the PC, so ensure USB Debugging option is enabled in your phone from the path path “Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging”. The USB Debugging option should be ticked as shown in the below screen capture. (Phone should be disconnected from computer while enabling the USB Debugging Mode).
- All antivirus in your computer should be disabled along with the Firewall tools. Uninstall all the security suites if installed in your Galaxy S2 as these tools generally interrupt the process of firmware update.
So assuming that you have gone through all the above mentioned things, you can now proceed to the next step where we have summed up a detailed tutorial on how to root your Samsung Galaxy S2 GT I9100.
