Hi, you don't need to sim unlock your s3 to root it. Look for cf root 6.4, or cf auto root, or Samsung galaxy toolkit. Read up on these and choose your method.

This method works 100% if you have an i9300. I rooted mine a couple of days ago and it's also sim locked.

i tried towelroot,frama root,kingo root none of them works,my device need to wait for supported version,i want to root my phone by flashing ROOTGalaxyJ1.zip'' using CWM like the old days but i dont know how to make the zip
Yes, same like me, I try all of them but no one is done. Its should flash with cwm and flash with zip file. But I don't know how to make it.
I honestly regret buying this J1. No root.zip file for it. I was using an S4 until the screen cracked
Let's wait patiently. There'll be one when the time comes. But until then, just wait and smile ... Just for your info, backup and restore can be done through Helium. Even without root. Also, google app automatic backup and restore did wonders for me. Let me fill google keyboard data wirelessly and silently.

[URGENT] Device status CUSTOM and Problem with Root Alpha G850Y

Hey guys.. Bought a new Sam Galaxy Alpha G-850Y and tried rooting it using Framaroot, Towelroot and Kingroot. Framaroot and Towelroot don't support mh device and when i tried king root it Failed at 70%(rebooted once at 53%). Didnt worry then now tried updating my software by OTA. It says Your Device has been modified . Checked SystemStatus it is custom. Then checked root by various root check apps The Results were Different . see screenshots attached. One says not rooted one says not properly rooted and one says Rooted. Now What to do... titanium backup and other apps which require root permision say I dont have root. Trued downloading Supersu but Didnt open properly. As i think m not rooted. Now i am thinking to properly root it and then unroot it.
I want my device status to official. How to??
Or else I want it properly rooted dont wanna get stuck in middle. Please help
NOW heard CF Autoroot works well but WILL IT TRIP KNOX?? [major question]
Any Other ways.. any help is wholeheartedly appreciated.. ?
If you want ro revert back to stock status then search for the proper country firmware on sammobile.com for your version of alpha and flash it with odin. It will erase all errors snd bring the phone to the fresh os.
