You do not root with a kernel any more as recovery has its own partition again (like most android phones)
Root is easy, flash cwm recovery with ODIN like you would a kernel, then flash the root . zip in recovery.

Hi all, this is my first time here in SG Note forum and I have some question about the root and how to do it.
Q1/ There are 2 methods to root the phone, Da_G and mashi! in this thread and I think this post also for Da_G. Which one should I do?!
Q2/ Can I remove the root and install the original room again after I did the root?! (to not lose the warranty)
These are my question and I hope I can get help from you guys

Root question
I used the root method 4. b. from the second link in Q1. That one will not raise your flash counter, if you are concerned with possible warranty issues. After that you can flash CWM then what ever rom you want to flash.
I am waiting for Odin mobile to be compatible with the sgh-i717 Note before flashing a rom because it doesn't raise your flash counter either. Until then I'm satisfied with just root so I can rid my Note of bloatwear.
We have a flash counter reset now that braway set up for us. With this you don't have to worry about tripping the flash counter because it will put it back to zero.

New to XDA. Just wondered if.. like the s2 I can root my s3 without pc...
I think I done it by installing a new recovery, and flashing CWM, Busybox etc
With no yellow triangle. Is this method possible on the s3? Or is it possible atall?
Many thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Afaik not possible yet, just flash a CF-Root kernel you need with Odin (SU, busybox and CWM), download Triangle Away 1.51 and reset the binary flash counter. This is the easiest way.
How did you root s2 without a pc?

I think this is a great rooting method since it doesn't involve flash kernels making it a very safe method and you don't have to worry about Triangle Away etc
I did try doing exactly the same as this on my S3 but using the s3 version of CWM http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.4-i9300.zip but it fails to load the zip with a signature verification error which is a shame.
Does anyone know why this works on the s2 but not the s3. The s2 doesn't seem to have an issue with signature verification.
Probably because Samsung read through this site too... Can't make it too easy now, can they....
By the way, S3 doesn't have a yellow triangle anymore.
Just the binary counter is increated but it can easily be reset with TriangleAway.
Any clever person been working on this or know of a way?

I brought this subject up a while back when first came from Note and S2, we just need someone to leak a signed CWM like we got for other phones then we're good.
Hasn't happened yet though so who knows if it ever will.

It is a good method. Rooted stock is what I wanted anyway..
Ah well

Any change on this? My computer is kaput and I want to root
Does the toolkit work for the sgs3? its something similar to the gnex toolkit will it work the same way ? because i read through here there is other ways to root and install cwm but with the toolkit its easier which way would be easiest?
The toolkit is similar to the Galaxy nexus one.

Odin is far from being complicated.
Several people have had softbrick issues with the toolkit, I'd avways prefer having control over the individual steps and see what goes wrong.
It's nott like there are that many, you need 1step to root (flash kernel through Odin) or 2 steps to change Rom (root, then install new Rom through CWM) and there are plenty howto's.

hi all I got my note from someone and notice it has a custom recovery but its not rooted...so can I flash this back to completely stock without a computer? since it his not cwm recoverver but a different one.

If you want to go back to stock and have root it can be done, but you will need CWM or TWRP...what do you have installed. You say you have a custom recovery but you are not rooted.... you dont need to be rooted to put CWM or TWRP on, is it you do not have a computer at all...What ROM is on there now?
I would find a computer it would be your best bet, but below are the tools for the GNote for these forums.

Download a kernel from the original dev section i.e. dagr8's kernel and flash it from your recovery. That should restore your root privileges. Sounds like he just unrooted the phone on a custom ROM for some bizarre reason.

it actually has the stock ics

Doesn't matter. If recovery is installed you don't really have a problem. Just follow my instructions and you should have root in 5 minutes.

so I can flash roms and everything the way it is?

Yes, flash away. Read every First Post a couple of times for the installation instructions.
