1) Do not install CM 9 unless you want to brick your phone
2) All important info can be found in General > Sticky roll-up thread. Believe it or not, you're not the first person to ask this question
Please start by reading the basics its all posted .
Then read the instruction for the rom you want .
If you dont understand then dont flash until you do .
Basics read first.

Hey there. I'm new to the SIII mod world so I have a question. I know how to root since I rooted the SIII of a friend, but I want to install a custom rom. If I do so is there a way to COMPLETELY be stock again and under warranty?

Yes there is. Check the unbrick guide for the GS3, it will show you how to flash the stock rom and return to how your device was when you first boughr it.

Root is not needed kernel is part of the firmware .
Flash a stock Samsung rom from Stock rom thread or from posted ICS roms in General via Odin .
Alternative wait for your phones upgrade via KIES or use Checkfus to download firmware .
Root is only required if you are flashing a custom firmware that requires CWM and Root and most do .
jje
After installing kies ,,, a frimware update show up ,,
now i think its better to update the frimeware throw kies right ??
and is it possible to install ics with kies ??? or i need to flash costume kernel with CWM recovery !!
thanks in advance
ok
personally I would look at Chainfire topic on easy rooting etc, or you could use SuperOneClickRoot & then install any number of custom roms from the I9100 android development section here at XDA

Ask your "mum" or your "little sister" to do it for you.
But they must remember how to unlock "your" phone.

A factory reset that could have been avoided by doing the account recovery procedure provided in the other thread.... But whatever. Enjoy your new phone.

Here's another self-important precious who also thinks only nice things should be posted because it's his thread.
At least he hasn't posted a pack of lies all day.
You should learn how to concoct slightly more plausible lies - think of all the time you could have saved instead of frantically editing your other posts.
And when you're done, spelling lessons would be useful.

e.g. Samsung bootloader is not locked...

better you stay away from rom manager, root with CF-root, you will get the app CWM manager with similar functions to Rom manager, will work withall the custom kernels for SGS2

You've been given more than enough links.

Don't be lazy.
EDIT to add: I should clarify - Not I nor anyone else can tell you what you should do next to your phone. If you want to root it or otherwise modify it, the links already provided to you will (eventually) lead you to the information you seek.
You seem to be asking what people here should advise you to do to your phone. How should we know? We don't know what you want to do, or what your tastes are. Everyone likes different things. Someone's idea of a cool modification may not be my idea of a cool modification. Or yours. Understand?
you can do wat you want with it wipe your ass with it for all we care haha

Hello guys
I have a S3 i9300 uk locked to three network and it has xxdlj1 build and NEDLI1 base. I need to root it but keep the branded 3 firmware and unlock it.
Iv seen the links around and most of them tell you to install custom rom first and then root with a file.
Can I just root it and not install new firmware ( its on 4.1.1). im new to this stuff and iv read a lot on the forum with a lot of help around.
Thanx for the help appreciate it.

Iv rooted my s3 using cf root 6.4 ( not auto). Its on 4.1.1. now i know that 4.1.2 is out i really like the multi tasking feature and really want to update.
The only thing is that i want to unroot know but im not sure where to start. iv read up on this site to unroot s3 i9300 (galaxys3root) and i want to go back to stock firmware. I want everything gone also the root(supersu, cwm manager also the aptoide and stuff like that. Basically so the warranty is intact again.
the method shown is it good and is it compatible with the way i have rooted? Galaxys3root
since my phone is branded to 3 network in uk can i install unbranded firmware so the 3 start up sign goes away or shall i stick to same firmware.
Appreciate the help the people give on here. Thanx alot
Hey there.
Sorry if this topic seems generic. But believe me, I've done my research. I've been googling my butt off trying to get this to work. But obviously I've been very cautious because I don't want anything to go wrong.
Anyway, I found the official guide on how to install CM 10.1 -- which was the first ROM I wanted to try. But for some reason the method they described didn't work. (Heimdall gave me some weird errors. Basically wouldn't start)
so I've been googling away, and I haven't really been able to find a guide that fits my phone and build.
Here are my questions:
1) I have the S3 international. (i9300). What method would you think is best for me to install a Custom ROM? Should I root? Or not?
2) Does it matter which build I have? I have the 4.1.1 polish version which came out a while back. Does that mean I need to find rooting software that fits that build?

Whatever method you understand the instructions as posted .

If you have to ask the answer is always no .

(1) Read this and the stickies guide in Generel section
(2) There is no "best" rom
(3) You cannot root a phone with cyanogenmod or any other rom respectivly, a rom does not root!
(4) After reading you should be able to answer all your questions by yourself, otherwise do not root or flash anything.

for rooting just follow the guides, yes, I guess the easiest option is cf-autoroot (will keep your stock recovery, also read the instructions in the cf-autoroot thread). Afrer that you can choose yourself what recovery you want. In addition cf-root6.4 is not considered SDS safe as it flashes an older recovery.
