First of all what firmware version you on now? ICS or GB?
--- also as most people will tell you, a simple search would have helped before posting ---

This is the easy, wrong way. Search for yourself, all the info is allready out here on xda.
Edit: you should know this as you're here on xda for a long time.

flash siyah kernal via ODIN (or any kernal you like), then you can flash any custom rom you like via CWM recovery. The rom you wanna flash depends on what your looking for.
Ok.
Thx

You can flash siyah 4.1.5 from gokhanmoral. Com for galaxy s2
Then you are rooted. You will get CWM 6.0.
Then from recovery take back up of your current stock rom.
And flash any ICS Based custom rom.
Do these steps then in future you want to try JB custom rom then let me know

Wow, I'm amazed that you actually asked this question.
Seriously dude, learn what sticky threads and search button are before attempting to flash a device.

You can search the threads for guides. I don't use HTC so I'm not familiar with it. Starting you can find a ROM that is suitable for your firmware. Gt i9100G. Be sure not to get GT-i9100 ROM because its two worlds apart. Once you done that, go to cwm and fully wipe everything. Then install from SD card. If the roms has aroma installer you are good to go. To get detailed guides please search the forums.

Hi all, (this is my first thread)
I wanted to ask a couple of questions about which I am confused...
I am currently running stock 4.1.1 on rooted international galaxy s3..
Q1. Is there anyway I can get 4.1.2 OTA Without unrooting?
Q2. I am not sure whether the country I bought my phone from has got the update yet... So is there anyway I can check that...
P.S I got my phone from dubai..
But I live in India...
Thanks.

Give a try to the temporary unroot option in the superuser app...
Not guaranteed to work...
Download stock rom through sammobile.com and flash through odin only...

If you already have CWM recovery why not use CWM to flash a custom 4.1.2 rom thats based on Stock firmware (like Android Revolution HD)?
Thats just as easy, has more support, rooted and you'll have future updates faster as well.
I already downloaded omega v34 but didn't flash it because people have lot of issues with it.. Lag, random reboot etc. Stock rom will be more stable I guess..
I haven't tried revolution though...
I'll try it now..
Any other rom you recommend?
Thanks!

Try Omega for urself and see how it works...

I had the same experience, Omega had loads of launcher redraws and sudden lag. No such experience on ARHD with Perseus kernel. That kernel now even has the exynos exploit fixed.
Nope, all other roms i've tried i never used more then a few hours.
Can you give me a link to the ARHD page?
Thanks!

Yeah, everytime you flash the stock image, you'll have to root the phone again... but so what?? I have my mobile sine 8 weeks and i think i flashed it 10times now, and lots of custom-rom installations, configuring the phone etc....
It's not a hard work, you just have to read carefully BEFORE you start rooting, modding or whatever. This forum is awesome and till now i really found an answer to my questions everytime without bothering the ither guys with a question that is already answered a thousand times just have to use the search... so, good luck and have fun with your rooted mobile. By the way, i recommend the Omega-ROM for galaxy S2 and S3, the guys are.doing a great job with their ROMs. If you own a S3 LTE (i9305) i recommend the Pandoriam ROM, works best for me
Best regards

Haha.. Thanks buddy.
Btw, I am not new to rooting, I have flashed at least 15 rom's on my old phone(galaxy ace)
But I was not a member of XDA then.. I just used to read....
But since s3 is much more expensive I wanted to be absolutely clear about the smallest of things...
Because with great power comes great responsibility.

We would be thankful if you tell us what ROM you want.
You wanna go stock, you are already on stock jb.
You want ICS? GB? JB leak? ....Froyo?
Ok, ICS it is.
And yeah, you'll lose root once you flash it as long as you don't flash with mobile odin pro.

And will I flash it just from my phone's recovery mode,if not tell me how step by step please and thanks.
As per the first page of this thread, get a stock rom from Samfirmware & flash it with Odin (download mode); Guides. Or, if you search the General section (or do a Google search with XDA appended to your search terms; I do not have a link so don't ask) there is a thread in there somewhere with CWM flashable stock roms. But if you want to get the phone back to a similar state to when you bought it, do an Odin flash.
Nobody's going to regurgitate step by step instructions especially for you given it's been done thousands of times before in other threads. As a wise man on here says in his signature 'n00b OK, lazy n00b not OK'.
Hi I'm new here. I'm planning to root my Samsung Galaxy S III. Is there something I need to check or take note before proceeding? Everything in my device is in stock.
And by the way, do I need to root my device in order to flash stock/custom roms? Is there any differences between flashing updated stock roms and updating via software update? TIA
You need to read the basic stickied faqs and guides first.
Like backup EFS.
Why root when you dont know what its for ..?
