Hi all,
I want to root my Samsung SIII and tried to look for information, but I am lost with so much thread to read and not sure which one is current.
Could someone please give me a direction where I should begin?
I have a Samsung SIII model SGH-T999 with Android version 4.1.1
Thanks,
Tri
Use the search button in the future.
The thread is sufficiently popular for it to appear in Google (since the in-forum search has been disabled).

1. Post questions in the Q&A section, otherwise the police will be here soon
2. Look at the stickies and especially at the FAQ thread in the Q&A section, anything described there.
wow. there's a link to the rooting guide on the main page of the i9300 forum.

Hello everyone! I just bought a new S3 under contract with Orange,It does not have the brickbug firmware so all is good. However in relation to the rom changing efs partition format i have a question that i couldn't find an aswer for. I tried flashing the XXEMG4 and newer roms but they would not do anything to my phone except giving me emergency calls...however my phone works with older firmware and basebands but not with the new ones.. Could this be because it is sim-locked? and somehow my efs remains unchanged? or did i get it wrong?
RECAP: the phone works only with older firmware and basebands but not with new (efs changing) roms...giving me weird imei and emergency calls on newer roms etc,basically all the problems that people experience AFTER flash MG roms and trying to go back to older.

Hello all,
I live in The Netherlands and I had bought the Samsung Galaxy SIII from a telephone provider in the Netherlands.
I had an official ROM for the Samsung Galaxy SIII and everything worked ok.
It was working on Android 4.1.2. and I wanted to flash it to Android 4.3. with Odin. It was the first time I ever flashed something in my life so I was very happy that it seems to turn out well.
But I discovered that I have a big problem on my hands know because my IMEI is completly gone, my phone number has become unknown and my network is gone too!
I still can use WI-FI on my phone but that's it!
Does anyone has any idea how this can be solved?
I am aware that there are simulair posts here with this subject but it didn't help me so for that reason I desided to post a new one for this issue.
Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone!
I need your help.
When I flash archidroid (4.4.2) then I lose my IMEI number. Then I restore efs with efs manager or Kctool and I get the IMEI back with proper serial number.
However, I cannot properly connect to phone network. It connects for a second or two but then the connection drops. After a minute it connects again and drops again. I played with 2g/3g options but it did not help.
I can flash stock 4,3 rom back and everything works fine. I just would like to upgrade to archidroid or other Kitkat rom.
What should I do?
Thanks for the help.
