Use Odin, flash Siyah or another custom kernel and you're done.

[Q] Rooted successful, but have question

Hi all,
i Rooted my SGS2 as mentioned in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 . It was so easy, and very thankful to intratech and chainfire. I was doing step by step process as mentioned in the post. I completed the flash of insecure kernel from chainfire(CF-Root-SGS2_UH_MUL_KG7-v4.1-CWM4.tar). Then i started SuperOneClick, it gave a message "Already have a root do you want to proceed ?" i clicked NO and flashed back stock kernel and confirmed i got root. But my question is, i just flashing with insecure kernel got root then why we use SuperOneClick ?? Please advise..
merin
You flashed cf root which give you root automatically, there is a different kernel which is the insecure one.

Nope, if you have flashed cf root, got root, and put your stock kernel back you are all good.

I suppose that you wish to root your device via fake recovery method, is it right? It is the best method in my opinion, but let me ask a stupid question, have you got at all an external memory card (micro SD) inserted into the phone?

Yeah but it won't mount it says error I've rooted before with an s+ I can't get into either the external or internal sd cards, weird. There isn't even an option to open internal card.

And answering the Jokesy question? Is it stock recovery (3e) or clockworkmode?

[Q] Rooting without computer?

Just bought a SGS3 and want to root it (adaway & other little goodies). No custom rom yet (wanna play with stock). However I'm computer-free (no access to any Pc/mac/linux) for 2-long-days. Any possibility to root sgs3 only with the phone (&internet)?

Download cf root and flash using mobile Odin. I think you can get it free off xda or pay for it from the app store. Follow normal rooting guide except use mobile Odin when it says normal odin. I did it that way.

As far as I know you need to be rooted to be able to use mobile odin. Hence will not work without root.

[Q] Triangle Away on 4.1.2?

Can I use triangle away to fully reset my flash counter to zero? Im running a stock ROM 4.1.2 From Spain (orange provider) Jellybean? Or does it only work with ICS?

i've used it before without issues, but i've tried 4.1.1, and 4.1.2 odin flash, plus CF root on my i317 and cannot get TA to attempt to wipe counters. I open the app, tap "reset flash counters", download the add-on, agree to warnings, and nothing. no reboot, or anything.
Any ideas what would cause this?
See if yoir phone is supported with triangle away

Where you downloaded it from?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
i got my firmware files from sammy, downloaded TA from play store, and i've had my CF root for a while (maybe old version?). i have noticed that adb works, but adb reboot bootloader just reboots, and no fastboot commands work while in download/bootloader mode. that's never been an issue before, and i'm on a mac.
I can get all flags set back to official/normal, just can't get TA to reboot and attempt to wipe the counters.
does not work on my s2 i777 is there another way?
greetings, see

You need to go find the galaxy note forums, we can't help you here on the s3 international version.
