[Q] Rooting i93000 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. Does anyone know what I need to download to root my i93000 (International) stock rom?
I'm currently on the latest firmware Jelly bean i93000XXELLA. I know how to root just lookng for the correct file I need to flash in ODIN.
I've tried searching but can't find the answer. I wasn't going to root this phobe but want to so I can get my ps3 controller working wirelessly.
Help much appreciated.

The correct naming is the i9300.
Please use the search function, there is a universal root method.

Just download the Rom file from this thread. All you need is the pda file on odex version. Please flash using Odin. Instructions are elsewhere. Please make sure you read detailed instructions before using Odin otherwise you may end up with problems.
This will not increase the flash counter. Please note that this method only gives you root and no change in recovery (stock)

AW: [Q] Rooting i93000
I just can't believe that you searched on Google at all. Just by searching for "root s3" or "root GT-I9300" there comes up a cornucopia of tutorials to root the device...

[Q] Please Help Need Simpler Way to Root Galaxy S2

I was using odin, superoneclick and kies to root my phone. All was working fine untill superoneclick decided not to open and had an error message that said "Unable to find the version of runtime to run this application." I couldn't find a way to fix it after multiple attempts so I decided to try the easier way of rooting the phone. But this requires my firmware which is KDD but I can find the thread for it. Does anyone have the thread for it or help me find it. PLEASE help is greatly appreciated I have been doing this for more then 4 hours im getting really frustrated.

I rooted mine by flashing the lightning rom through Odin. The rom is already rooted. Even if you don't want to use it at least you are rooted and can flash other stuff now

[Q] Official ICS Update Removes Root?

I just used Kies to update my Samsung Galaxy S2 I777 from 2.3.6 to 4.0..3 ICS that just came out. I was previous rooted and now the root seems to be gone. How do i fix this and root my phone again while its 4.03?
Does the super 1 click root work on the official 4.0.3 version?
I would appreciate any help/directions on how to reroot my phone after i updated to the official ICS from AT&T. Thank you!

So I'm stuck with this forever or will there be a fix for this in the near future?
Btw was it normal for my root to be removed by updating my phone using kies? Because when i updated previously from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6 OTA using my phone's software update option, it didn't remove the root. I was surprised to see that ICS did
Also, what do you guys think about using this method to root my official version of ICS 4.03 on my S2: http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-ics-on-att-galaxy-s2-sgh-i777/
I know most people on here don't like galaxys2root.com but I'm running the unrooted version of ICS from galaxys2root.com and am having no problems.

Yea but i want to root so that i can freeze apps using titanium back, as well use root capabilities such wifi tethering and root explorer. So i need to root soon. What is the best/safest way to do this on the official ICS 4.03 version?
Well I don't know why his rooted version would be good as well...have you read the comments on his tutorial in the link you posted? Probably will give you a good idea of how it's going for other people.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA
It seems to be working for some people but I honestly don't want to have to root using a I9100 version/kernel to have a root. I was hoping that there was an similar root to the super 1 click root method where you can keep your phone on the i777 version.
Also some of the comments say that they are having issues with certain buttons, and on the youtube video one comment says something about getting bricked. So idk
Restore to stock kh7 with root, then flash the official rom in the dev section is the only way I know of at the moment

My humbly tendered suggestion would be that you start reading here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313659
Oh, man...why won't someone spend the time to find this poor guy the info he needs and post the links? It's not his fault he did an update without first knowing what effects it would have on his phone. What a heartless bunch you guys are. It's not like he's been here for over 3 years and knows how this forum works.
Yes you can root the update but trying to flash an update script thru 3e recovery didn't work for me and will format your sd card when you exit 3e but I was rooted within 10 minutes after upgrading to att official ICS. Just to be sure I downloaded/installed Superuser and busybox, then I flashed the CWM recovery kernel ( if you don't know ahead of time how this process works please research before attempting it) which won't boot the phone but allows you to use the button combo to get into recovery and then flashed the latest Siyah kernel .zip (or whichever ICS kernel you prefer), which had been strategically placed on my sd card prior to the Kies flash. And voila...root and recovery.

Why not just flash the pre-rooted version?
...and then there's that ! ^ As a matter of convenience that works too...but personally I like to take what I've learned thru these forums and apply it in real life to retain the process.

Another way to do it, if you have the Odin flashable files, would be to use Mobile Odin with the everroot option checked.

[Q] Flashing international stockrom pre rooted?

Hi,
I have a rooted international s3 with 4.1.1. I would like to update to 4.1.2 with mobile Odin because I don't have e computer. The problem is that when I do this I will loose root and the exynous abuse I used to root doesn't work on 4.1.2 so I am wondering if there is a way to flash the new version and root it at the same time via mobile Odin.
Thanks for reading.
Best regards Reclused

you answered your question yourself, use Mobile Odin Pro and inject root when flashing, should work fine.

May I know why you are not able to use Odin?
That is a very simple way to root.
It depends on your current firmware/kernel. I was able to flash and never used Odin I've rooted the phone using exynos abuse as I had really vulnerable kernel, then I installed Recovery by rom manager and flashed stuff from the open recovery. But make sure that exynos abuse works for your firmware before using it and make sure you know what you are doing and don't touch anything else then root option in this program
I install samsung kies. But still when i connect my S3 to my PC nothing happen. Sorry for my bad english

The date of purchase means nothing. I know that you have stock firmware, but there are many stock firmware versions (even if all are 4.1.2) and they have different vulnerabilities. I was at XXELL4 kernel at stock, which is old and vulnerable, but you may be on one of the newest kernel which can't be abused without ODIN. Please take more time to read guides and get more familiar with the phone, as your next post might start by "I've bricked my phone, please help" You will survive few days at stock rom and it seems that you don't know the basics

KIES & Odin do not play well together, hence you should deinstall KIES in case you want to use Odin, will save you a lot of time solving connection issues.
Otherwise as mentioned.

Do not use Kies!
All you need to do is install the drivers of your phone and once that is
done and Kies is opened infront of you open, go to
Task Manager > Processes > Remove All Kies Related Applications
and then use Odin to root your phone.
1. Provide us with kernel version.
2. Are you on ICS/JB?
3. Are you on OS X? If you are use Heimdall; Mac alternative to Odin. Otherwise there is no reason why you should use anything other than Odin/Heimdall, just flash CF Root.
what do you need root for? if you don't know the difference between Kies and Odin, don't root it, you'll brick it
