Hey guys,
I've recently converted to the S3 from the GNex.. I'm used to the stock android feel. I've read that the Galaxy S 3 comes with unlocked bootloaders.. does that mean if I root I wouldn't have to clear data?
Because I'm honestly willing to settle with this phone, I've changed 7 phones in past 6 months and I'm sick of losing my data..
So help me..
Can I root without losing data?

yeah you can just root using cf root
I'm really interested in rooting.. but I'd prefer staying on stock ROM. Is there a way I can root, and modify the stock ROM?

Really easy and clean way to root your phone is through the SG3 Toolbox. Check out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
There are a whole bunch of other very useful tools also included.

Also install Triangle Away 1.51 for resetting the flash counter.

Guys.. would I also be able to flash the original firmware? Unbranded?
Mine is carrier locked and never gets updated.. I'm having some real issues and want the latest original firmware..

yes you would be able to flash a unbranded firmware just flash it through odin the nonce youve done that set the phone up the flash cf root
Does it necessarily need to be through odin? Will it not work using the toolkit?

using odin only takes about 30seconds to do the set up then about 5minutes to flash the actual firmware ive never used toolkit so i dont know how long it takes doing it that way

The toolkit is doing the same thing. It's best that you learn to do it through Odin. It's far more safe this way it's not like you are going to break it or anything.
Let's hope not

So, I'm attempting to help my girlfriend root her tablet from multiple hundreds of miles away, and its not easy, let me tell you. Basically, she has no access to a computer in order to complete the process, and of course she's on the latest firmware... so I'm here hoping someone is capable of creating an app that can do it for her. I see there was one in the past, but its obviously no longer working. If someone could do such a thing now... it would help me out so much, I'd be willing to pay. Thanks, guys.

Nobody because it's not possible for now.
The guy who made the sparky root method said in that thread that he'd port the newest root method to an apk format when he got a chance. Therefore, my argument is still valid.

You just give an answer to your own question.
Did you see it in the forums? No? Well then guy guy didn't ported yet
btw, unlock and custom rom ftw
Are you implying that its possible to unlock and install ROMs without rooting?

Yes. Unlock, flash a custom recovery with fastboot (but you need a computer if you aren't rooted). And from recovery flash any ROM you want.
See, the issue here is there is no USB access on her computer, so whatever is done, it has to be from the tablet itself.

HI guys. My cousin was running miniCM10 on his x10 mini. all went fine. but from yesterday it had issue with GSM calling. ( cannot able to speak or hear and the call disconnects in 25 seconds automatically. so he asked me to put on some stable GB roms. i installed GingerDX GB rom and had the same exact CALL issue. so i decided to use SEUS and revert back to stock 2.1. i installed stock 2.1, but now my mobile network is not connecting. both automatically and manually. it can see all the available networks, but when i try to connect my network , it says " Your SIM does not allow connection with this network"
any ideas guys ?

You tried relocking your bootloader, you must have unlocked it previously to install MiniCM10. Try relocking it mate.

Not trying to be rude but just keep in mind for the future that if you can't find anything then chances are it doesn't exist
Yea I haven'tset anything up really because I'm waiting for root to install like a quarter of my apps. I can't wait for this! Hopefully by the end of the weekend we'll have it
rootlinux is back with another one.
This is built using Aroma installer.
Easily switch between 3.1.1.0 H918 for stock based roms.
Easily switch to 3.0.2-1 to flash AOSP roms.
Test it out and see what you think.
First build is right here.

Impossible, not enough people have your phone for anyone to develop flash & root.
Nobody has ever done it (besides kingroot, which you updated and it no longer works).
Lesson #1 if you want to root and modify any device, DONT UPDATE!
Lesson #2 If you really must have root on your phone save up and buy a LG V20, then when you post here, it will be on topic and in the appropriate place.
Or at least pick a device you know you can flash and root in advance.
End of story...

It happens, part of the learning experience. Now you know...
1. Make a list of a few devices that you would like.
2. Research here before buying anything, to see if it can be done.
3. Never update, newer updates can result in preventing exploits that you need to root/flash.
