[Q] Rooting for Samsung Galaxy S II - General Questions and Answers

I've just updated my firmware via KIES to the following below:
PDA: I9100DXKI2
PHONE: I9100DXKI1
CSC: I9100OLCKH1
version: 2.3.3
And now I'm thinking of rooting using HELLCAT or CHAINFIRE, however I can't find KI2 firmware from HELLCAT. CHAINFIRE provides KI2 but its for 2.3.5.
Question:
1. Can I use CHAINFIRE FW "CE_XEN_KI2: 2.3.4, CF-Root v4.2, SU 3.0" to flash?
2. Can anyone advise which is the FW from CHAINFIRE or HELLCAT to use for my current version of FW?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] What happens if i root with a different CSC number firmware?

Dear everyone,
I have Samsung Galaxy S Advance (I9070)
with the following info:
PDA: I9070XXLF4
PHONE: I9070XXLF4
CSC: I9070TMHLF1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9070XXLF4-CL11002255 [email protected] #2
Build: GINGERBREAD.XXLF4
Android: 2.3.6
I didnt find firmware on SAMMOBILE.com, and i downloaded this firmware: sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=6098
FIRMWARE INFO:
PDA: I9070XXLF4
CSC: I9070CNXLC1
Version: 2.3.6
After that i rooted it with ODIN, and everything was successful.
I have some questions:
Would it be bricked if i recover (unroot) with the different firmware (diff. CSC code)? Or should i wait for my version of the original firmware?
Is there any other way to unroot?
Thanks for help!

you maybe did not rooted your phone coz you downloaded an official rom from sammobile but with a different region!
your stock region was Hungarian T-mobile (CSC:I9070TMHLF1) and changed to Romanian vodafone (CSC:I9070CNXLC1)
but is it still OFFICIAL NOT ROOTED firmware!
so of course you can put back your original T-Mobile hungarian rom with CSC all in one from sammobile site:
this is what you need:
sammobileDOTcom/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9070&pcode=TMH&os=1&type=1#firmware
ui:kérdésem ezzel kapcsolatban: nem zavart be a másik csc?gond nélkül működött a teló a hazai hálózaton?

No, i rooted with XXLF4, and then wanted to unroot, but until now there was no TMOBILE HU FW on Sammobile. They uploaded it last week and i successfully made the unroot.
Very nice.

Can i flash stock firmware with sligthly different baseband version?

So i decided to unroot my phone today, and the only firmwares i found had different baseband versions than that of my phone.
My question to you is if it's dangerous for my phone if i flash a slightly different baseband version firmware?
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S6
Android Version: 5.0.2 Lollipop
International version (SM-G920F)
Country: Sweden
Baseband Version: G920FXXU1AOCW
Custom root: CF-Auto Root for said device
Link to firmware availible for my phone (Sammobile): www .sammobile.com /firmwares/ database/ SM-G920F/ VDS/ (Assemble link)
The baseband version of the firmware is: G920FXXU1AOCV (Has a V at the end instead of W)
Will it damage my phone if i flash the firmware that has a V instead of my phones W at the end?
Thanks in advance

i dont't think so. As long as it for G920F devices,it doesn't matter what the baseband version is or in what region !!
cause i tried on my own device, bro
