Using adb shell requires insecure kernel, which needs to be flashed via odin.
So currently no way in my knowledge

I really can't remember now but either way best thing is TriangleAway it will reset the flash counter no flash no foul. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.triangleaway&hl=en
It's not free but well worth the money and works with different Samsung models.

Heimdall is exactly the same thing as Odin, only another tool which happens to be cross-platform instead of windows-only.
TriangleAway can be downloaded for free from Xda, but I'd recommend supporting the dev through buying it:

thank you for all your answers, i consider using cf-root now and triangle away later, thanks!

Now this may be a silly question and am sure I should know better but is there anyway to get root without using a pc and Odin??
Have tried Darkytool, Rom Manager, Kernel Manager and CWM app to flash CF-Root but no joy...
You can root without Odin using the quick root guide in the firmware thread but you'll need a PC.

Thanks for the help. At least I know in future it isn't possible without a pc.

Yep. Initial root requires a computer.
If you really need to root right now, download Odin and CF-Root on your phone and ask someone to borrow their computer or use a public computer. Move the files to the computer and root it in less than one minute and you're done!
i have a few questions maybe you guys can help... so here we go:
when you root with odin, it unlocks the phone giving you su right. does this also change your rom?
how is the launcher different than the rom? difference between flashing rom and kernal?
last one... when you install a custom rom, can you delete it if there are bugs to reinstall a different one or use the stock?

you could have rooted with cf-root 6.5 instead...it includes CWM, otherwise google clockwordmode recovery and download the recovery and flash it with odin, simple as that!
I googled it but there's only one for Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300), While mine is a GT-19305, Can I use CWM for 19300 on 19305?

I have a Galaxy S3 and I'm using dual boot successfully. I was wondering whether I would be able to dual boot a primary rooted and secondary unrooted rom side by side?
Enquiring because I want to be able to use apps such as banking, Sky Go and any other that don't work with root
Thanks in advance

If it's a rom that includes the SuperSU app, you can unroot it. Should work. Infact Stweaks also unroots....

I thought that was the question I was answering.
Well if unrootin the secnd rom desnt work using superuser, then just remove /system/app/supersu.apk and /system/bin/su frm teh rm.zip before you flash it.

Sorry for the confusion. I think I'm writing it wrong I think, I know how to unroot, that works.
But Sky Go still detects it as a rooted rom
What I want to know is can I put a stock unrooted rom for secondary rom with siyah Dual Boot. Without affecting the first rom and root?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You can only flash stock roms via odin which won't help you since you must use siyah recovery to flash 2nd rom.... so no...
There are only TWO elements to root which I have suggested you remove manually (follow link to sticky roll-up on signature for root basics).
If sky go still detects "root" after that, its nothing in the rom that its detecting....
So remove the files from the rom before you flash it.... if that doesn't work, nothing will
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
It detects root because the first ROM (the main) is rooted. You could try switching example swap primary and secondary roms

Rom manager is not such a good idea with the S3. Safer to use mobile odin and Flash a recovery that way.

I didn't realise it wasn't a good idea to use ROM manager with the s3.. Why is that then? I went that way because my laptop is a Macbook and hiemdall didn't seem to work well so I had a quick ten mins on a laptop at work with Odin to root and then I only had my Macbook to use so ROM manager is the way I went too manager seems to be the same thing as well

From experience I can say that using ROM Manager can soft brick your device. I once wanted to use it with my old S2 to install CWM and I got into a bootloop afterwards. Only re-flashing a Samsung ROM via Odin helped to boot into Android.
One of the easiest way (in my opinion) to root your device is to flash a Kernel via Odin that will give you Root. The Siyah Kernel is a good place to start, since the developer also provides tar files for odin to flash. It will give you Root and from then on you can install Stweaks and flash CWM from there.
I wish i d of spoke to u a few months ago when I first rooted cause I buggered about with it for weeks! I didn't realise you could install recovery from steaks either.. Have you got much apple Mac/android sync experience?.. I can only describe it as trying to get arch rivals to mate!.. Might just dual boot windows on the Macbook if I can't get them to play nice
