Mobile odin is not an app for PC. You can download it on the playstore on your phone so that you can flash .tar.gz files directly on your phone.

Not without pc..There was a exploit called framroot where you could root your device without pc but that is outdated and from reports i have seen does not work anymore on our S3 here is the link to the thread anyway but it is very unlikely to work >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/framaroot/root-framaroot-one-click-apk-to-root-t2130276 <<

I have just used S2 Root, I pressed the "Root Device" Button

What should I do? It is stuck like that for about half an hour already...
It says that it is already rooted
But it is not...
I used Odin to put an insecure kernel
and once i try to use S2 Root I have this error.
I try to use Titanium Backup for example and it says I dont have root permissions.
Hmmm.. Did you had the phone on? I mean, like not in download mode. Just turn on like normal?
step 1. Go to a proper root guide
step 2. flash cf kernel
step 3. profit?

The insecure cf-root kernel already rooted the device, no need to use s2 root or anything else.

Yes, I had the phone turned on
And even if I don't use S2 Root It says I don't have root privileges in Titanium Backup
Do you have an app called "superuser"? If not you have to download it from Market and download Busybox from Market too.
Hope it works.

Hi
My Samsung Galaxy SII cannot be accessed via its USB slot. I am able to recharge the phone over USB but that is all. Basically it got wet (very wet) and after much salvaging I managed to get USB recharging functionality back but lost USB data access.
My question. Is there anyway that I can root my phone without using USB.
Details:
Android version: 2.3.3
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE2
Baseband version: I9100XXKDJ
I have tried using Gingerbreak (which I got onto the phone via AirDroid) but this isnt working for me.
I cannot use Odin or ADB because of my USB problem.
Anyone got any suggestions?
Many thanks!
John
Use wireless adb to install the zergrush root
or I saw something on the front page of xda about a mobile odin version that you could use right on the phone
edit I just actually read more on the movile odin and you need a CWM5 kernel so you will have to use the wireless adb for zergrush first then dd a rooted kernel in place manually then you will have CWM installed fine.

Many many many thanks!!
I have re-read the wireless ADB description. When I first looked at this I thought that I first needed to be root to install it! But now I see that that is not the case.
So with wireless ADB I should be able to manually root my phone.
Brilliant. Thanks!

Currently there is no way you could achieve root without having a working USB port.

If you use the EverRoot option (Market/Pro version only), Mobile ODIN will root the firmware while you flash it.
Yes i am misreading above as to will root and or will root on the fly >>as it roots an unrooted phone .

I have downloaded mobile Odin Pro and tried running it.
"Mobile ODIN - Error
SuperUser access is needed, but could not be acquired.
Are you rooted and did you give permission?"
To which I can only press OK.
So I dont have access to "EverRoot".
It was worth a shot though! And I will be using it at some point once I gain root....
Cheers

Have you tried the Zergrush root method via wireless adb yet?
Note it will only give root without any custom kernel or recovery. But you can then use adb again to dd the cf-root kernel into place manually and after a reboot recovery will be installed and available.

I have installed adbWireless and am reading up on zergrush and cf-root kernel at the moment. Havent got wifi access here so will need to wait until later to try this out.
Looking for the exact dd command at the moment.

The command should be
dd if=/sdcard/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5
Just place the uncompressed zImage file in the base of the sdcard

Forgot to mention just in case that before that you have to do a "su" and authorize it on the phone screen to have permission to do that command.

Hello everyone,
I tryed multiple time to flash my phone (original ROM) with Odin and other software. Every time the connection cannot be established. I have tried with different computers and different cables, including the original one. I came to the conclusion that Micro USB connector in my phone is broken. I can still recharge but data transfer is not possible.
I have an SD card where i can put a ROM in order to update my phone. But if i'm correct that isn't possible if I don't have ClockworkMod Recovery.
So finaly my question: Is it possible to root install a custom recovery without a cable and without root?
So in oder words: If it's not rooted and i have the Stocked recovery I can't do anything without the usb connector.
Version out of the box:
Device: GT-I9300
Android version 4.3
Baseband I9300BOUGMK3
Kernel version:
3.0.31.2303192

I would like both. But at this moment I have no USB connector (broken). So I have some kind of a boostrap issue.
Without root no flashing from device
Without custom recovery no root and no other rom.
You need to look for a custom recovery that can be flashed using the update.zip facility in stock. I'm not aware of one but happy searching.

Then you have to flash a "CF-root.tar" file with odin. Then your stock kernel will be rooted, su will be installed and also a custom recovery.
In most cases it will be CWM..... ..... Happy Flashing :angel:

Sounds great, but i can't find any signed custom recovery... I'm now downloading the whole internet on my PC so i can perform a grep...
The issue is that i can't use ODIN because my USB connector is broken.

Thats r8
But there could or is the possibility to root phones with an "odin root apk" .But i think one should not do it in this way
cause you could break your device....The download mode with an odin program and an USB connection to your phone
is the only way.
Same problem.
I use fiwe diferent cables .I changed the USB port on phone. NO connection to PC. i dont known what do next. I've tried everything. can't conect sgs3 to odin. no posibility root. please help. thanks.

Are you sure the drivers are installed correctly? Did you update to KitKat using the flash tool? (if so then the drivers are correctly installed). If not, and you updated over KitKat, chances are that you have not installed the drivers correctly which is the hard part.

I downloaded the driver file and installed. now my phone is getting detected but i get this error in the flash tool.

Vroot doesn't give lasting root. After a day or two the root fails. Kingroot wont work and root genius isn't so genius with this ROM. Has anyone gotten lasting root on the newest KK ROM? I have rooted three times. Right now I'm using SuperSU but it is not full root. TB won't work and Mobile Uncle Tools doesn't work fully also. Is there no newer recovery that will work better? I've tried the newest TWRP and the older CWM both won't give full root. I wouldn't ask but I've been looking myself for a long while already. I've even contacted the guy who writes the 4EXT recovery. Maybe he will make us a recovery. I like 4EXT.
What is the difference between the kitkat update variations s220,s221,s214
my phone has s214 and i cant install twrp in it
which is the latest version among all these
Obviously S221.

Install Kingoroot for pc.
Enable USB debugging on your phone and connect it with pc using USB cable.
Open Kingoroot, enable your net connection and click Remove Root button being displayed.
Wait for the process to complete.
By the way, if your concern is that payment apps like Samsung Pay are not working on a rooted phone, why don't you install xposed framework and use RootCloak.
RootCloak is a xposed module which prevents apps from discovering root privileges on a phone.
That's what I did when payment apps stopped functioning on my phone.
