1. Download and unzip saveroot.zip
2. Open a terminal window.
3. use the "cd" command to change your directory to where you unzipped.
4. type 'sh saferoot.sh' without the quotes.
The only way I could make it easier would be to hop in my car and root it for you.
Can someone please help me step by step how to root S3 i9300 and install recovery and custom rom? Or can anyone link a good video tutorial?
Is it safe to use ROM manager to install a recovery? I know some years ago that program was not safe.
Search and read, all covered in the sticky threads.

I knew someone would say that and I would say that myself to people if I was experienced, but I am asking because I want to be sure, the sticky threads and all that can be old information, there may be new versions out etc..
But okey, nvm guys I figure it out myself.
even being old the process remains the same... just folow the instructions in this link and you will be rooted

You cannot find it because it cannot be rooted as several threads mention.

There is no direct way of rooting NC5 update...but you can go thru a downgrade method to do so. A couple of threads on this.

Alright guys, I have searched and searched for an answer; I rooted my S4 with build number NC5, with safestrap, however, I installed CM 11 (nightly) and google play store through SS. Now I read there isn't a way to do that. I have already booted my phone and now its just a black screen. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?
Thank you in advance.
Also, I am on a Mac laptop, and I can't figure out how to use odin. I have also tried using j0dinCasual but it says something about not being able to locate my phone

You'll need to use Odin or Heimdall to re-flash a factory image.
