Member,
Your Odin exe contained Malware. Odin does not "install", normally you click the exe and it opens. It does not install on the PC. Your file installs, and adds malware to the PC.
Thread closed. If you get a clean odin file and want to reopen, please message me.

Dear Harsha, Your efforts are really welcomed, however there are very detailed thread on how to Root GS2 (rather any ICS device).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794
It may be posted elsewhere, but to a noob like me coming across this info seems real helpful, so thanks for your effort. My galaxy S2 is bricked and i'm trying to recover data - will this wipe my data do you know? Perhaps I could save my data via clockwork mod before I flash it with ODIN (if the flashing wipes data that is)? Thanks again
It is very useful to me coz it's for i9100g..
All i see from the link above is only for i9100
When I try to flash the zips in stock recovery , I get a signature failure.

Hi, just starting out with rooting my phone so need a bit of help. When I try to use this root file on my i9100g with stock rom, ics 4.0.4, I get a E: Signature Verification Failed.
How do I get past this to install CWM Recovery?
Also, can I use this CWM to install other roms such as CM10
Can this be done though just CWM rather than go through Odin

Is this method permanent. What I mean is will this method make CWM the default recovery? Or will I get the same old stock 3e recovery and have to install zip every time I want CWM?

Unleash your phone (aka install custom recovery). God has forgotten you edition

RECOVERY GUIDE
Flash signed recovery zip - Easiest way
1. The most common way is to simply flash Phil3759's Enhanced ClockWorkMod Touch.
2. Download the .zip file and copy it to your external sdcard
3. Then, reboot into the stock recovery (power off the phone and turn it on with home button and volume+ button pressed)
4. Choose "install zip from external storage" and select the already mentioned zip
5. Reboot. This should be enough!!
This is the easiest method, thus the followings are meant to be attempted only if you had problems with the previous
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Odin - If you have a computer available
1. If you have any errors try going back to the Phil Download Home and instead download the latest i9100 .tar.md5 file
2. Download Odin 1.85 and unzip the archive
3. Open the executable and add the previously downloaded .md5 into the PDA field
4. Put the phone into Download mode (power off the phone and turn it on with home button and volume- button pressed)
5. Connect it to the computer and wait till drivers installation is finished
6. Start flashing
7. (optional) If you want to remove the yellow triangle, check Chainfire's Triangle Away
Mobile Odin - When you have nothing but errors
0. You'll need Chainfire's Mobile Odin. Show him your gratitude and buy the app if you want! :laugh:
1. Root your phone. If that doesn't work, try "Xperia Root by cubeundcube"
2. Download Dorimanx Kernel (one of the .md5 packages)
3. Open Mobile Odin and grant it root permissions
4. "Open file" and select the .md5 file
5. Follow instructions and go!
Reserved.
I would like to point out i made yet another guide for gs2, because yesterday I went to "unlock" my mum's i9100 and I had a very time
If somebody wrote a more comprehensive guide, sorry i miss it

(Potential) Root for Samsung J330L (Korean variant)

This is a guide to an untested yet possible method of rooting the Samsung J330L
So far I have been able to install Clockwork mod successfully and wanted to share my findings.
(links at the end of page)
NOTE: I take no credit for creating/editing the files listed below
*IF you follow this guide you may void your warranty*
*I am not responsible or liable for any damages while following or attempting to follow this guide*
The Korean variant of the J3 is relatively easy to install CWM.
You first must install, as with any Samsung device, Odin.
You should be able to download the latest Odin from there web page below
Secondly you need a 2017 firmware set for the j330L both to do the installation and to flash if anything goes wrong.
After installing Odin and extracting the .tar files you will need to put you phone in download mode by pressing and holding the home vol- and power keys
when you get a blue screen hit vol+. You should be in download mode.
Connect your phone to your computer and open Odin. You will need to install the BL AP CP and CSC files. (For the CSC file use the HOME file)
reboot and boot back into download mode
Flash the recovery.tar in the AP slot.
Reboot to recovery by holding down Home power and vol+
----Past this point i have had no success flashing magisk or super SU so I am currently working on flashing a ROM for root(causes boot loop)
---------------------------------------------Suggestions and help is welcome----------------------------------------------------------------

CWM is dead.
Your device should be able to rooted using TWRP or use Magisk manager to root the boot image.

True but at the time of posting TWRP causes boot loop. I haven't tried the TWRP version that you posted tho. I will give it a shot.
Ok After much testing i have successfully rooted the damn thing with the twrp installation above and the latest Super User but installing magisk or installing a custom rom now causes bootloop. This damned phone is irritating AF but root does work.... now i need to find out how remove my kernel so i can base a rom off it
