ok >>> i will give you link for the problem from youtube just a sec to upload it fine ?
Why are people so hung up on flash counter, and status? Is there something wrong with your phone that you need to send it to a service centre? If so triangle away then install stock rom/recovery via odin and all should be Ok.

Must agree with you there, really doesn't bother me.....apart from the sds the galaxy line is still as unbrickable as it always was.....If you understand and know what you are doing.....sadly it seems, many don't!

Hello!
I want to unroot my I9300. I have flashed stock 4.1.2 through Odin because i had SN5.
Everything worked fine but when I want to use TriangleAway the count resets back to 0. The problem is when I enter in recovery mode to delete cache etc. . After exiting recovery mode and entering download mode the count is 1 again. What should I do??

Ask that somebody for advice then .

rptoma ,just do what jegan told you to
If by chance your phone has problems AFTER just download from samfirmware whicerver firmware you want and flash it.
It`s failproof if you folow the tutorial
iirc,the red exclamation mark is related to the custom recovery(CWM) and not rooting itself.you can be rooted while having the stock recovery and not have the counter ticked.you can try flashing a stock sammy recovery then use TA and your binary counter should stay 0 even with the new bootloader.
Note: i havent done this personally in a while since i flashed the old bootloader on the phone so i dont experience it anymore.
Thanks JJEgan for your help. It worked!
not for me sorry

Here's my situation, all right?
1- GT-I9300 International model (Portugal);
2- Android 4.1.2
3- I9300XXELLA
I rooted with mskip V7.0 (Thanks!).
Then, since i was getting de RED exclamation mark i ran Triangleaway v 2.75 to see if i could reset the counter (set to 1) and get rid of it.
No success so i did as JJEgan said (Thanks!) but had no success also.
I flashed the stock rom (downloaded via http: -- www .sammobile.com with Odin and aftrer that i flashed the custom recovery with mskip's toolkit.
Still the red mark and counter with 1.
Any help is welcome .......... and it's all right if someone calls me noob (haha).
Cheers
----> Edit:
Solved.
Flashed Vodafone's ROM. Full wipe. Root with chainfire's way (thanks). Triangle away. Done.
Can't tell you how and why but it worked.
I tried rooting my S3 using the guidelines from this forum.. (Option 2: Only root)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955423
Here is d procedure...
Download this CF Auto Root from here http://download.chainfire.eu/264/CF-...3g-gtn7100.zip
and extract it to .tar
Procedure :
1.Open Odin and select PDA tab
2.Point to extracted file CF-Auto-Root-SGN2.tar
3.Now switch off device and reboot in download mode
press Vol down + Home +Power, And then, press Volume UP button in Warning Page to enter the Download Mode
4.Connect device to PC and wait till device successfully added to com port (it will turn light blue)
5.Hit ‘Start’ to flash
6.Once it flashed successfully, you can see 'PASS' in table above the ID :COM, you can disconnect device from PC
7.Reboot device and you will have superSU in application drawer.
Everything worked well..till the last step..
After rebooting,touch panel doesnt work..and Welcome screen shows language selection. First welcome screen used to come in portuguese then later after flashing for 4-5 times,it came in english.But the touch doesnt work.I tried factory restore..but it doesnt work..Phones memory is showing up when connected to computer..Somebody Help me bring my Phone back to life! Thank yu!
Looks like you flashed a file for a galaxy note 2 and not an s3.
You need to be careful and flash the right files to your phone or you could end up with a hard brick.
Have a look at the stickies on how to root.
Oh and make sure you have an international galaxy s3 9300 as that is this forum your in.

you flashed the wrong file (Note II), the process is correct but you need to flash the cf root/auto-root file for the S3 as mentioned! Try it again with it and see if it fixes your issue.
You Might wanna flash a stock firmware in odin first before you try rooting.

Flash stock rom then factory reset .
Then read the basic faqs and guides before flashing anything or ignore and head straight down the highway to Bricksville .

So there is nothing I can do to make my phone's touch panel work??
One more thing is..when I open the phone in recovery mode(vol up+menu+power buttons) the android logo in the background is showing some X mark smething..So i guess its soft bricked rather than hard-bricked..so is there no way it can work?

One take to a service centre is best as you have a big problem and zero knowledge .
OR
You could try flashing CF Root recovery from development then booting to recovery format cache system data sd card and preload .
Then download mode and flash stock rom via Odin .

If you phone connects to your PC then try completely resetting the phone using Kies
Start Kies, then go to Tools then Firmware Upgrade and Installation, this process will wipe the phone and reinstall the latest firmware, you will need some details from under the phone battery but just follow the on screen instructions.

Flashing stock rom doesn't fail..it jst doesnt improve its condition..Touch doesnt work! Flashing(its showing 'Pass' in Odin) and getting detected by computer works well..
As of changing motherbaord..thats wat I am planning to do after i go to my hometown..till then I want to try and make it work..since the symptoms doesn't imply motherboard damage!

Oh..got it now..
Jst out of curiosity..how does rooting some software destroy hardware?
ANd Cnat I jst change that destroyed part instead of Whole Motherboard>?
No.
You can destroy cpu, gpu by overclocking badly, overvolting, eventually internal card can be corrupted but all those scenario aren't linked to a simple rooting procedure (which is only writing two files on the system partition...).
You need to have a good diagnosis, either the digitizer is dead, or the connection of it on the motherboard. Our the motherboard.
Replacement won't be cheap especially for motherboard.

You could try recovering your phone using Kies
Start Kies then go to Tools > Firmware Upgrade and Initialization then follow the instructions, this will wipe and reset the phone.

Hi,
Is there any way to reset binary code when my phone won't go into boot. My phone won't get past the boot screen and I can only get it to recovery mode - where I can't do anything - or in download mode. I know I need to use Triangle away but when my phone won't boot I can't use the app, so is there any way that I can reset the binary code in another way?
Thanks

flash stock sammy rom through odin and look if it is bootable. how to do it is in general section - stickies
if yes root it and run triangle away (or maybe you won't need it then anymore because its bootable again )

I've been reading a lot of theads but nothing have been successful..

First thanks for all the answers
Well first I rooted the phone with this program: Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit and Odin that worked fine. Then I downloaded CM and Gapps to the sd-card and flashed it trough CWM and that went fine. The phone worked fine and everything was good.. Then months after it started to reboot it self and then one morning, after a reboot, it deleted all my text massages. The next day it wont boot. Some people says that there is someting wrong with my motherboard, but what do you guys think?
I found an article that says that rooting and flashing doesn't void the warrenty (EU) " If it is not possible to revert it stock software any more, it is also not a software-caused defect" and the warrenty is still valid And that's excatly what im experienced.
Thanks
I found an article that says that rooting and flashing doesn't void the warrenty (EU
Oh yes it does under Samsung warranty rules .
Fact is better than the fiction of eu and root not voiding warranty as its not a law and Samsung is not the vendor .
Any claim for repair must be made against the vendor .
