Whoever told you that is mistaken.
You can root with CF root. Once you install Cyanogenmod, you cannot install cf root afterwards due to the fact it is not compatible with cyanogenmod.

Im going to try this method now
Hi. I am trying to root my friend's phone from france. I believe it is an international version because it says GT-i9300 at boot up. anyways i successfully rooted my phone and my cousin's phone using this method:
http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s3-on-mac-osx/
On my friend's phone i was able to flash the recovery.img file but when i try to install the CMW-Superuser.zip file and it says verification failed.
anyways would i be able to flash a custom rom that is already rooted, even tho i was not able to flash the superuser zip file? would that be safe? i would like to try it but not sure if it's a BIG risk.
You flash most custom roms from CWM recovery .
F**** knows what you have flashed from another site .

Yes you can. Only a few custom roms tho because only a few have an odin version of the rom. Cfroot is the easiest way

i'm downloading CF-Root now. I checked my friends phone with Root Checker and i did not get the notice "sorry you do not have root access" I got a notification saying that i do not have SuperUser installed.
Can i just flash the CF-Rootxxx.zip file thru recovery?

I'm not joking...sersiously that's what happened !!!!! Anyways I just flashed with CF-Root 6.4 and it worked...
is there any kernel through which we can root i9300 without yellow triangle as there is signed philz kernel to root s2???
Use stock kernel, makes no difference to root.
Don't get confused between s2 and s3, they are totally different.
On stock firmware just use CF auto root.
