I followed this guide to root my GS3
http: //theunlockr.com/2012/05/26/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s3-smartphone/
Although when i use root checker, it says its not rooted and when i downloaded superuser, it says no apps in list. Does this means im not rooted ?
Root using CF-root in development section.
Easiest way.

I used doomlords firmware and mines rooted successfully.
Try with his first, then if it works , try the English firmware and do the same steps.
Sorry if im not clear with my answers this is the first forum ive actively posted on

superoneclick uses exploits to get root if the phone doesnt have unsecure kernel. However, there is no exploit for the new gingerbread SE software right now (gingerbreak is fixed!). Therefore there is now chance right now to get root without unlocking bootloader and flash unsecure kernel :/
Therefore you have to flash the unsecure kernel, and then superoneclick gets root quite easily.
Oh, so basically the unsecure kernel hasnt got the patch or fix or update that stops you from rooting, its been removed ? Am I right ???

no, there is just an option "secure" which (if set to 0) allows superoneclick to root very easy!
Oh k, I get it

dude be more specific
Its common for OTAs to remove root access. Sometimes root can be preserved using OTA Rootkeeper, but it would have to be installed before installing the OTA. Check in the forums for your phone to see how to root it. Its also possible the OTA patched the root exploit that you used before.

You'd better find the appropriate forum on XDA for the phone and try to revert to a pre-OTA version. How did you verify that you've lost root, have you tried a terminal emulator and SU into root to verify?
More details will probably be most helpful
I have lg marqee, got update from sprint that took away root

I'm looking to unroot a AT&T Razor and I was looking to find the files to it or a easy way to do it. This is for a friend I do not have a Razor. I have a Tbolt and a Samsung S3 and have rooted both of them. I only found one unroot method and it was just for his root method and I'm not sure who/how he rooted his phone. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Download Supersu
Update the binary
Go into /system/app and delete Superuser.apk
Go to the very right in Super super abs select Permanent Unroot
You're unrooted

Run SuperSU and just press Full Unroot. It'll renove all the root stuff.
If you already have SuperSU installed check if it's updated in play store.

Hi,
I did the the unroot option. Now the superSu was uninstalled. When I run the root checker app to check the root status i got the below message"
root access is not properly configured or was not granted"
Does this mean that my phone is unrooted?
Use root explore(need root permission) delete the Su file from system/bin or system/xbin folder and then delete the superuser apk and reboot

How did you confirm that it didn't work? Device status "Modified" after using ExynosAbuse usually means it worked. I would try to install Titanium backup (Tibu) or some other program that requires root and if it works then you know you have root.
If you have root use Tibu to freeze SDM 1.0 to keep the update from happening if you want to use the first developer created method to unlock your boot loader so that you can flash ROMs. You can use the later new method to unlock the boot loader if you accept the update.
I have titanium back up but it says I dont have root access... basically what im wanting to know is, is it okay it try another root method even though it says my device is modified...

I have tried rooting it with Oneclick,uberizer and srsroot and they all said rooting was successful but again i check with the app and it says its not rooted.
I have installedsuperuser and tried to update the binary but it just says getting root access failed.
Can anyone help me out with this?
