I was trying to root my sisters S3 i9300, until the Auto Rooting App i used, didn't work and changed the kernel(without root access available ) and now whenever i try other rooting apps it doesn't work. I think its because of the kernel change it wont let me root. So someone told me to "Get back a stable system by flashing latest firmware by Odin. If it boots normally, use cf-auto-root (by Odin, too). ".
I got ODIN 3.10.6.
Problem:How to flash latest stock S3 i9300 firmware(link would be appreciated) by ODIN?
How to then use CF Auto Root, to root my device?
A video or clearly detailed written tut would be awesome
I know is quite noobish question but YOLO?

I'm having issues after updating to latest Stock Vodafone Australia Firmware PDA:I9300TDUBLH1 CSC:I9300TVAUBLH1.
I cannot re-root SGS3 using CF Root 6.4. It doesn't install the SU binaries nor CWM, but on Odin it shows success patching the CF root 6.4 tar file.
My flash count goes up by 1, seen from download mode screen, but do not see any warning symbol at boot.
No CWM or Superuser installed. All rooted programs complain cannot access root.
Need some help here. Anyone else got their's working? No mention of anything on XDA that it doesn't work with LH1.
I used to have I9300TDUBLF2, and it works perfectly fine before flashing to the latest I9300TDUBLH1 yesterday. Some pointers please.
Hey, this might be pointing out the obvious, like restarting the computer. But are you sure you unzipped the ZIP to a TAR file, or put the TAR file in some other place other than the PDA section in ODIN, or ticked re-partition. But probably not seeings most of those would brick your phone. I got the update to the same firmare and rooting worked perfectly, if not better.
Possibly, you may have to wait till 4.1.1 comes out (said to be tomorrow 29th August), install it, and root when the com has discovered how to
Another chance could be the version of Odin you are running
Hi!
Just try again.
Had to install a couple of times before it worked.
The problem is also explained in the CF root thread.
I am on vodafone AUS as well and I am having the same problem with multiple attempts using CF-Root. I am wondering the the S3 toolkit v5 will work instead?
Thanks

I have looked at tegrak but i cannot find my build which is JZO54K.E160LKLJMC1
If someone can help me with this it would be great, i am also sorry if this is in the wrong section
Thanks
I have found something ending in MC1 on the tegrak website, but i do not know if i should use it as it does not have J it only says MC1
Pretty much any Samsung is gonna be handled the same way, you're over complicating it.
Use Odin to flash custom recovery FOR THAT DEVICE... Use recovery to gain root. Latest twrp asked if you would like to root out you aren't before booting back into the os.
If that isn't an option an su.zip will be available to flash within recovery.
Hello, I am a complete noob with android software and these forum websites.
I bought a the standard Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 a few months ago, rooted it but since then I still have no root access. This is the first time I've signed up for any website to ask for help, because I cant find any solution to fixing it.
I followed a simple guide, which instructed to use odin, and the Siyah kernal. It said the root was successful and superuser + CWM was installed.
On the Superuser Binary Updater, its says the latest version is 3.1.1 but I only have 3.0.3.2. When I try update, it says "Gaining root access... fail!"
The 'Root Checker Basic' app tells me "This device does not have proper root access"
I was suggested to use OneClickRoot. I try it, and it tells me my device is already rooted.
I am using:
Android version 4.1.2
Baseband version I9100XXLS8
Kernal version 3.0.31 siyah-s2-v6.0b5
Please help me gain root access without wiping the data off my phone. I dont want to modify the way the system looks or works, all I want is root access. Sorry if this posted in the wrong place, this site is confusing for me
Flash Siyah again (through CWRecovery if the flash was successful enough to install it, if not through Odin again).

I've tried doing it again through Odin and still no change. Is it possible that I'm doing it wrong? After many searches I see there's multiple ways of rooting the device..
Can you please link me to correct instructions for using Odin? Just to be sure I'm doing it right
Siyah tar file in PDA section of Odin, click start. I don't know why people think this sort of thing is complicated when it's really very simple.
Hi guys, i'm still new to rooting and roming. Heres what i have done on the absaloutley wonderfull s3 19305LTE 4.3 australian model.
Rooted the phone no problem with odin
There were dramas with superSU but got them fixed when i deleted and re installed superSU.
Accodring to rom manager i backed up my rom. So i'm thinking great, now i can download a rom.
i got the galaxy project rom thing which is working great....however
superSU is now saying that SU binary needs to be installed, it's saying i need to manually re root which i can't seem to do.
Titanium back up is not working.
Rom manager can't find any backups which is juuuuust peachy!!
Now odin won't see the phone when it's in download mode, it only sees the phone when its in normal operation.
and i can't seem to see the ime number or whatever it is, which is probably why odin can't see the phone in download mode?
Can anyone........anybody at all............help?

Well, I would say why don't you try factory resetting your device at first and then again try connecting it over the ODIN see if that works out or not ! :cyclops:

You need to post in the i9305 q&a section for more detailed help.
Try not to use rom manager, it creates more issues than it fixes.
no imei number will not make odin not connect to it.
Can you access recovery? if so reflash the rom.
I was using Kingo Root to root my S3 i9300, until i realized it wasn't working because it kept looping and when i took my phone out it still kept looping with the rooting process(As if my device is still connected). It rebooted my phone once and the problem is it still keeps looping.
But the problem is, it change my Kernel Version to
3.0.31-2788594

Is that stock S3 kernel?
On S3 rooting changes kernel & recovery.
Get back a stable system by flashing latest firmware by Odin. If it boots normally, use cf-auto-root (by Odin, too).

Don't worry. Odin run perfectly if one READS the tutorials CAREFULLY, which is what most people don't seem to do... I never had any problem flashing all kinds of stuff with ODIN.
