I decided to install the new CM 10.2 with its 4.3 android today. In the guide I was using it also said to install AJK kernel so I did
and now I have everything working except ROOT permissions. And I can't figure out what did I do wrong. Here are the steps I took expecting to have my phone rooted and with cm 10.2 at the end:
1. I installed the new kernel by their official instructions in recovery mode
2. Installed SuperSU in recovery
3. Installed CM 10.2 in recovery
4. Installed GAPPS in recovery
5. rebooted phone
Could you please tell me what am I missing or what did I do wrong? I already rooted my phone before so I can't seem t figure out what am I doing wrong now.
Any help is much appreciated, thank you all.

now i am using cm10.2 with no Gapps tell me how to fix root permission and install cm 12.1 and its gapps o it
Thank u
Before installing any rom at first flash sock rom. Download stock rom from sammobile.com flash it via odin.
Then install cwm recovery CWM recovery . Go to cwm recovery flash Supersu.zip to root ur mobile. Then Flash the custom rom which you want. Download & flash gapps from Here
Hi, What suresh said will work. if you're unable to flash Su zip via recovery then odin is your safest and fool proof way.
And as far as the gapps are concerned, though you can choose according to your liking - reading the ROM's forums give the best output~ People share their experiences with gapps.
I suggest you take a backup before flashing anything, all is well until you flash something & it disintegrates your rom experience, but you just can't go back. So never forget to BACKUP.
installation problem of cm and gapps
i have already try this but this does not work. i install the firmfare with samsung kies then root again with kingo root.after that i install the cmw and try to install cm 12.1 but it didn't work.u are telling me again the same procedure which i have already tried earlier.
Instead of flashing via kies you need to flash via odin.
The problem will be kingroot. You should root by flashing cfautoroot via odin.
installation problem of cm and gapps
ok now i am trying this
root problem
Again it is giving the same problem fix root.Root access possibly lost .now what i do.how can i send u pics of the problem?pics are not attaching here
Hey guys
I installed CM 13.0 (2016/01/02) on my i9300
Then installed GApps and everything was working fine
TWRP Recovery and SU were installed too
When I tried to open SU though (to enable root options) it said that SU Binary was not installed and that I had to manually re-root it
I used the CF-Auto-Root method but I still got the same message
Then I remember that I had installed a Kernel on my S4 i9500 when I had updated it to CM 12.1
So I googled and downloaded SiyahKernel v1.9.1
Now my phone is stuck on the boot-up. I get the S3 logo, then a purple eye and then a blank screen
I tried booting into recovery and reinstalling CM 13 but it just closes after displaying "Installing update"
Download mode re-rooting doesn't remove the kernel
Another website suggested I use another kernel but I wanted to get help before I did any more stupid things
Any help is appreciated

Looks like you totally screwed it up. Siyah on CM13?! you gotta be kidding me. Never ever install siyah again unless you're on stock ROM. Now I recommend 2 methods to you:
1. Backup efs and put it on your PC if you didn't back it up before. Full wipe your phone using twrp. Then extract the CM13 zip file on your PC then grab the boot.img file to an SD and put it on your phone and flash it using twrp. It will recover the stock CM13 kernel and then try to flash your CM13 zip. Better to download the updated ones. Be sure to use the latest twrp. And always use CM13 official root in developer options, trust me it's better.
2. If you couldn't flash CM13 again the only way I recommend is to flash stock using odin and then flash from the ground and bring your phone up.

It's okay I fixed it. I installed QS i9300 and then re-flashed CM and GApps. But the SuperSU is still bugged
A cursory reading said that CM is auto-rooted on stable versions and there is no stable version of CM 13 for the i9300 yet so I guess that might be the issue. The phone's working fine now, just no root access :3

You read it wrong. It already have internal root. Go to setting--> about device and then tap build number constantly to enable developer settings. There you can find root access options. Turn it on for apps only or adn and apps and done.
Thank me if I helped you.:good:

I already did that.. Root Checker Basic says I do not have proper root access and the TWRP Manager tool also says I do not have root
It is really weird. I'm on i9300 official nightlies and have working root!
I rooted my S3 with this (by m0xx) https://download.chainfire.eu/229/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.zip
I downloaded the 20160102 Nightly from this website https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9300
GApps from this website (ARM, 6.0, Stock) http://opengapps.org/
and TWRP via ODiN with https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys3internationalexynos.html (twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar)
Idk if I did anything wrong or downloaded an older version... I know there's TWRP 2.8.7 but I dunno how to install the img file, I knew tar would be compatible with ODiN

If twrp offers to root then don't do that method. Flash superSU 2.4.6.zip and on reboot you will see the app logo in your drawer or if not there it will be above developer options in settings. Open and allow it to update binary.

Already tried that. SU binary just doesn't update. I even downloaded the Update zip and flashed from recovery, it still asks to update the binary after reboot. There is no TWRP option to update the binary either, it directly goes to the normal method and fails everytime. Tried like 20 times probably
I'd say flash back to stock and start over. Installing siyah probably borked something.

The only reason I installed Siyah was because the binary wasn't installed. Multiple attempts to root didn't fix the issue.
Also I did flash stock ROM because after installing Siyah the phone wouldn't go past the S3 logo screen
What recovery version are you using then?? ??

Personally I would download twrp manager from play store if you havnt already got it. Flash/install twrp 2.8.7.X and boot into the newer twrp and flash superSU 2.4.6.zip. Try that before going back to stock.

Uhm TWRP Manager doesn't work without root. Already tried that
@Joserin, you did your very best to make it complicated. Go back to firmware to get a clean base, as said several times before. Firmware doesn't mean a Touchwiz-based custom-ROM! Download it from sammobile.com and follow the instructions on downloadsite.

Yeah sorry you do need root access. Your probably better of doing what rp158
Said. Your twrp recovery isn't up to date enough to install a new cm13 based ROM.

No root access to S3 when upgraded to CM 13; affecting full access Ext SDcard
Before upgrading to CM 13 for my I 9300 (Int) I was on CM 11 and I had full root access on my device.
In fact I still have that recovery file which I backed up before upgrading to CM 13.
I was able to get root whenever I typed "SU" within the terminal window.
Then CM 13 became available for my device so I upgraded to it by following a few simple steps.
Most Everything works perfectly ...... except for one important problem !
I no longer have root access on my device !!!
Of course the first obvious fix was to try to enable root access by selecting it within the Developer Options to grant root access to Apps and ADB; but that didn't work. And I have tried numerous other possible solutions: reflashing SuperSU2.67, wiping everything clean and reinstalling CM 13 and Gapps from scratch, and other such recommendations but nothing has worked for this problem.
Some of my apps that need to write to the external SD card are unable to work but the apps work if I change the path to the internal storage.
Whenever I need to delete a file from my external SD using ES File Explorer it forces me to go to the CM File manager to approve the deletion.
I am unable to select "Root Access mode" within the CM File manager.
And my little "$" does not change to "#" when I type "SU" in the terminal window.
So all this is definitely a problem with us simply not having root access to our S3 devices.
I really would like to revive this topic because I am pretty sure that Joserin and I are not alone in this one.
The CM 13 is much nicer than the CM 11 and there must be a way to cross this hurdle.
Joserin, please let us know if by chance you have found a solution.
Thanks to all; awaiting your suggestions ......

I flashed QSi9300KK on my phone (with kernel. I forget the name but it was the third option - not Agni or stock) and after that TWRP and then CM13. Everything's working fine now, even root access.
Remember do not pick the first two kernels in the installer, they didn't work correctly. Third one works like a charm.
Dear All,
Sorry if am re-posting the same, and as am new here and need an urgent help, started this thread.
1. My Samsung Galaxy SIII International (I9300) was rooted and I had CM11 stable/snapshot version there since last 2-3 weeks.
2. Yesterday, I tried upgrading the latest CM13 nightly for my device.
3. While doing so, and rebooting, it asked me the normal message "root possibly lost, fix, yes or no". I accidentally pressed no.
4. Then I noticed after CM13 was flashed, that I do not have root access anymore. Please note that at this point in time, I was not aware that it has to be explicitly enabled in developer options.
5. I came to know that I lost root when I tried to boot in to recovery (CWM) to install gapps.
6. Now, under the impression that I do not have root anymore, I tried to root again with Odin as I had been doing all these days.
- By doing that, ODIN removed my custom recovery (CWM) and flashed it with stock recovery.
- Though ODIN said PASS after reboot, I still do not have root access.
7. Removed cache, wipe data, and factory reset, multiple times but no help.
8. Enabled root for both apps and adb in Developer options, but no use.
9. I also tried KINGO root ( a very popular tool for SGS3 these days) but in vain.
10. Now, am stuck with CM13 and stock recovery and unable to do anything with ROM manager or anything else as I do not have root anymore.
11. Am able to install few apks for whatsapp and facebook for now and living with it, but it wouldn't let me install playstore apk too anymore.
Highly appreciate any quick feedback.
Many Thanks,
BR,
Shiva
I belive you need to flash the stock 4.3 jellybean rom with odin, and root it afterwards.

TWRP 3.0.0..???????????
First of all.. Update TWRP to 3.0.2, you are NOT supposed to see the message that tells you that root is gone, as (official) CM13 includes root from now on.
For root, inside Android go to Settings > Developer Options > Root > Only apps.
Do it via Odin as only 3.0.2 is available in a .tar file (latest version), should not be hard.
Not only that, but upgrading from CM11 to CM13 is not recommended, as it causes multiple compatibility issues with installed apps (afaik).
You are better off with wiping it all and install CM13 Clean, and if you decide to; you must also flash Gapps (optional) directly after CM13 (no reboot).

SGS3 I9300: Root and Custom Recovery lost after CM13 - SOLVED
Dear All,
Thank you for your valuable advice and suggestions. I used ODIN to flash back to stock ROM and now everything works as it is like out of the box. I will root again perhaps in a few days and the flash the stable release of CyanogenMod. Will keep you posted. I wish the Android M snapshot is released by then.
Thanks again,
Cheers,
Shiva
Hello. I have a little problem with my ascend.
I've been installed CM11 - CM 12 - works fine, then decide at CM13.. and its was mistake.
Now I have no system at G620s. All time, when try install new system - fail. - mean : Everythink in TWRP install fine, but when i restart my phone, nothing happen.
Everytime TWRP and Twrp. ( at some roms - cm 11 it stuck at logo Huawei).
What can I do now? I brick my phone, or it can be repair? What should i do now?
Tryed install custom rom - nothing. Cant flash stock recovery- its openin and closing in 2 sec.
Its any way to solve it? Have no backup files>.> Guess - everythink will be good, if succes install cm 11 and 12 -.-
In Interial storage its only TWRP folder , so theres no system >.>
Big thanks!
