If you google how to root your galaxy s2, you'll be able to find a specific steps to rooting your phone. I've done it plenty of times and trust me, it's not that hard to root your phone.

I rooted my mobile and have installed ICS long time back with country code of Nepal.(Since it was not released in India at that time). Is there any way i can get the official indian rom installed now. When i connect to KIES now it says the device is not supported

@ajay- Of course. Just download the Indian XWLP7 ROM from sammobile.com or CheckFUS and flash it via Odin.

that,AFAIK as i know are soft rooting tools..for hard rooting and superuser,u would need to flash an update.zip
search galaxy s2 xda forums .u shouldnt encounter problems.but follow instructions like it is a government order
