You can use GingerBreak to root your phone. If you need to downgrade after installing a custom ROM, just restore the NAND backup of your current system (which you should do before installing the custom ROM.) Hope this helps.
Guys wats a custom rom and will somethin happen to my phone and how do i back up sorry for troublin you guys
custom rom is performance boosting rom...
before u flash a custom rom u have to do somethings...

Hey guys! I have a quick question.
I also have Android 2.2.2 and the V.10e update. In a famous german forum they said the p500 CANT BE ROOTED with 10e. Does it work or not? I am a little confused now... I don't want to brick my phone, you know...
yes, I am ashamed of my knowledge
and yes, I've read through a lot of articles here in the forum and this thread also...
EDIT:
Just for not getting me wrong... I don't want to flash anything, I just want to use root to throw out these pre-installed crap like xing, studivz etc. and to save my zenonia saves ;D
EIDT2:
In this thread [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=900905] it says the following:
su
Also referred as substitute user - is command for changing of the account in current terminal (usually black screen with blinking cursor). Default account is root account. So if you insert into terminal 'su' and hit enter, you will become root user.

I wouldn't need the exploit, if I could do it via ADB... (if I knew the correct commands for the folders on the phone)

Alright then... But my question was, if I could do this stuff JUST with ADB, so I wouldn't lose my warranty...
Second question was if there are complications with V10e...
THANK YOU
Your first question does not make sense. How does it matter how do you root the phone when it comes to warranty?
For the rest, it takes about 2 minutes with Gingerbreak APK on v10e.

Flash again - but be 100% certain the ROM you are using is for the precise version of S3 that you have!

Either ask that site what's wrong or use XDA methods to root .

do you still have warranty on your phone?
if it has, follow this guide so that you dont have to pay any fee
1. flash stock firmware and root it
2. after rebooted connect usb otg cable with usb mouse attach to it so you can navigate the screen on your phone.
3. install triangleaway and reset the binary counter on download mode.
4. after resetting the binary to no or 0, unroot your phone using supersu.apk and uninstall triangleaway
5. after unroot factory reset your phone.
6. you have to use again the usb otg to pass the welcome screen after factory reset
7. you are now ready go to the shop and claim warranty.

So nobody solve this problem yet?
Ok i had this problem days ago, unfortunately after putting the wrong file for rooting, the touchscreen doesnt work at startup screen.. This is harfware problwm u have to change the lcd and difitizer... Hard to believe but its true after wrong rooting seen blue flicking, i think it damages the chips oh well it made my pocket burn replacing one lol.
I finally get back my charming s3 with the warranty claim! Tq very much chris.
Ironically,i ask my friend about my phone problem,he say that its not about the hardware damage,but software,specifically,kernel.he said that i can just flash stock firmware through kies (not odin) to get thing back normal again.i did not do this method coz i already got my repaired s3.. so anyone encounter this problem maybe should try the method,perhaps?

yes try the kies method first before sending for repair.
but i dont think it will solve by kies update if you got the brick by flashing wrong cfautoroot.
maybe if you got the brick from flashing rom maybe it can be fix,

you dont have warranty on your phone? if you have, you dont have to pay for service repair for it in claiming warranty.
Hey Guys,
Had a problem with my Galaxy S3-I9300, it wasn't charging, turning off on it's own, wouldn't turn on and etc.
I took my phone to a repair shop where I still had insurance. They fixed the phone and everything looked good until I tried updating my firmware, then I found out they rooted my phone without even telling me.
When I asked them why the did it they said that they changed some "electrical component" and without root my phone won't have any reception and internet (is that even possible?).
My questions are:
Is it true what they are telling me?
Can I still update my firmware some how?
Can I unroot the phone for the firmware update and then root it again?
Update:
I just got an update from the store that when they "fixed" the problem, the electronic number (IEMI?) disappeared and that's why they didn't have a reception, to get it back they had to use root.
How is that even possible?
I really appreciate your help, I really don't know who else to ask about this.
Thank you!

1. No, root has nothing to do with reception (Unless they changed your radio - which could be possible, but still nothing related to root)
2. Yes, use Odin and flash the stock firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares - you'll need to register.
3. Yes, but better to just use point 2.
Good luck!

Its simple. If your phone is rooted, and you have a custom recovery create a FULL nandroid backup and save it to your PC. Then read the unrooting thread and completely unroot your phone. First by running triangle away app reset your flash counter, then factory reset your phone, and flash the latest firmware available for your country(you can also cross check modem and CSC codes) via odin. All details are in the thread i mentioned. If the issues fixed by the company show up, reroot your phone and flash a custom recovery like CWM. Copy the nandroid backup to phone and restore. No harm done and you will find out if they are lying or not.
To update OTA you need to be fully stock and unrooted. Otherwise you can downlaod the firmware for your device at www.sammobile.com and flash via odin. As for your last question yes you can but there isnt much practicality in that.
