i dnt think so , there is any option for that
but may be soon enough

There was one working method on the SGS2 which my delerium tremens precludes me from searching for. There was a recent post about porting said method to SGS3, but IIRC it didn't work.

As far as I know, there is no (obvious) way to root the device initially without using a PC. However, once you are rooted, you can flash custom recovery (CWM) or use tools like Mobile Odin that can help you gain root when you upgrade the stock firmware.

there's a way for galaxy note
but for now for s3
big NO

E. Rooting for 2.3.3/2.3.4/2.3.5/2.3.6/2.3.7 (Thanks to russian forum-user with nickname may213) (if it doesn't work try D method):
1) Download attached file called upd_1.zip and copy it to your sdcard
2) Turn off your phone
3) Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
4) Select update from sdcard, select the file upd_1.zip
5) After the update completed - reboot
6) Now you have rooted S5830

Allegedly??? LOLwut?
Read this:
In recent years it has become common for speakers to include allegedly in statements that are controversial or possibly even defamatory. The implication is that, by saying allegedly , the speaker is distancing himself or herself from the controversy and even protecting himself or herself from possible prosecution. However, the effect created may be deliberate. The use of allegedly can be a signal that, although the statement may seem outrageous, it is in fact true. Conversely, it is also possible to use allegedly as an expression of ironic scepticism.

Hi jithendra194,
if you already flashed the clockworkmode this could be the problem!
I know a friend who had to flash stockrecovery again, before rooting his device.
Rooting wasn't possible by using the clockworkmode, but with stock recovery rooting was successfully
So you can try flashing the stock recovery first (from here) and after it you should flash the upd_1.zip (from here)
Good luck

You can try rooting it using either Gingerbreak or SuperOneClick. The chances of bricking your device using these tools a very minimal make sure you read the instructions for the tool you are going to be using in the threads I have linked (If your going to use SuperOneClick download the file, unzip it to the desktop, connect your phone, make sure USB debugging is checked on, then press root and wait till it completes, when it tell you it is done reboot your phone and you should be all set). Unfortunately, I couldn't find any information about upgrading to ICS or JB for your device. Good luck though

To do reverse tethering you need to be rooted and use this app to do it through USB. Sure I can try and give you a detailed explanation for rooting your phone, which method do you intend to use I would go with SuperOneClick I have the most experience using that.

I have tried SuperOneClick with this phone. It does not work. Micromax android phones are usually rooted with UnlockRoot but we need to make the boot.img insecure first. Please help us with obtaining a rom or boot image dump and getting it insecure. If that's done. We can flash it back to the phone and Unlockroot will be able to root it. WE ARE CLOSE!!

If it has HiMarket it is not a real Galaxy S III.
It is a cheap chinese clone of the Galaxy S III and no matter what you do it will NEVER be a Galaxy S III.
Close topic, because this phone doesn't even belong to the S III section because it isn't one.
But my friend cant use this phone in this state so i have to do it...
Could you please help me how can i make it root and which (turkish supported) rom u advice to me?
Or can i install another stock rom on this phone after root?

Okay do one thing before going into flashing custom ROMs...
type *#1234# in the dialer and post the output..
Also, install the google play app from here and see if it works..if your phone is not GS3 then flashing/modding using any tool from this subforum will most probable brick your device...so tread with caution...
Make sure you have the original GT-I9300 before you do anything..

It's like flashing bmw dashboard firmware into a honda pilot dashboard.. it wont work and will damage the device instead.

Just let the guy flash anything to his pseudo-phone and brick it.

The only thing is that i want to unroot know but im not sure where to start. iv read up on this site to unroot s3 i9300 (galaxys3root) and i want to go back to stock firmware. I want everything gone also the root(supersu, cwm manager also the aptoide and stuff like that. Basically so the warranty is intact again.
the method shown is it good and is it compatible with the way i have rooted? Galaxys3root
since my phone is branded to 3 network in uk can i install unbranded firmware so the 3 start up sign goes away or shall i stick to same firmware.
Appreciate the help the people give on here. Thanx alot
