Hi everyone. Standard story... Incautious n00b tried to root new phone, didn't work out well...
925i Optus Australia AOD1
Used Android unified toolkit, followed instructions hoping to root phone.
Have TWRP 2.8.6.0 and can access that and download mode.
Boot loop started after using TWRP to install Super SU root ZIP?
Thank you all for the help.. I've tried googling for a couple of days but I don't trust myself now to find the right answer [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji15]

i have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note I717m running android 4.1.2
i have looked everywhere trying to find a way to root it but i can't find a thread or site (via google) that would explain to me exactly what i need to do to root my Note specifically. I am a beginner at rooting but i have rooted my samsung galaxy s3 (only because the rooting sites were abundant and very easy to understand)
All i need is to know if there is a way to root such an old phone running the latest software, and if there is i need to know how.
thank you
Get latest twrp .tar from og dev section to use with Odin.
Uncheck auto reboot in Odin, flash recovery, and since you have the Canadian version there is an extra step as there is a script in place to overwrite a custom recovery if you boot directly into the os,
So, right after the Odin flash, button combo into recovery and factory reset, then boot into android.
Now reboot into recovery and when you go to boot again from there it should see that you're not rooted and ask if you'd like to do so.
Thank you for your quick reply!
I however dont know what you mean by twrp.tar and where i can find it
I would need links to sites and a guideline if possible because when i rooted my s3 it was one step after the other i didn't really understand all of it and it was a long time ago
Thanks again, hope I'm not asking for too much here I'm new to this forum
Its in the development section for the i717. Go to TRWP recovery. Click the link to the site and MAKE SURE ITS FOR THE I717. Download and do what stud said.

Hello guys, I bought "Samsung Galaxy S3" online and I am really confused with such names and so many different models and different things about them, so the guy asked "blue or white?" and I said "doesn't matter" and now I am stuck with this SIII neo 16GB...
I managed to install Android system recovery <3e> KOT49H.I9301IXXUNF4, but I am not able to root it, I searched everywhere and nothing, like nobody in the world have this device...
I tried tools for both I9300 and I9305 but they are no help at all either.
If there's any solution to root this thing or anything like that...I think I need a custom kernel to be able to do anything (right?)
How to extract kernel from firmware image? How to patch it?
I would be happy to have some answers.
Regards

Yesterday I've managed to root device, I downgraded firmware I9301IXXUANC6 and I flashed the phone, then towelroot did its magic and everything works as charm!

i root it with this program: https://towelroot.com/
but attention do not update the latest firmware because this root has no use, reinstall original firmware with odin
and then root it without update (then download superuser and busybox)

First of all, search for "root Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300" either on XDA or on Google. Make yourself familiar with the risks and advantages of rooting your phone. There are numerous tutorials available about how to root your device.
After rooting your device, enter this thread and download the latest TWRP recovery for your device. Installation instructions are given there.
Afterwards you are free to flash any Android 5.1.1 custom ROM for your device. You can find numerous ROMs here.

This is definitely the wrong thread. I'd familiarize yourself with what rooting and installing a custom recovery will actually do. If you think TWRP is an app than you have a lot more to learn. Going in blind without knowing what it actually does will leave you with a $400 paperweight

Hi everyone.
Yesterday I rooted the Grand 6 with KingRoot, but when I tried to change to SuperSU, he got stuck in bootloop.
I can't find nothing on the web for this phone
I needed something like this:
Stock ROM (please, someone?);
Flash CWM from recovery/preloader/bootloader;
Remove Root using bootloader/recovery.
Or if you have a better option, feel free to share!
Best regards.
Bump, cmon i can't be the only one with this smartphone

Download the firmware for your phone, use 7zip (or alternative) to extract boot image, then install magisk and use it to patch the boot image you extracted, use Odin to flash the patched image
Or
Flash twrp, then flash the patched boot
If nobody has done a twrp for this version you can build one for your device. It's easier than you think, I promise. Google "twrp builder" and it'll tell you what you need. By doing it yourself you'll know how to do it for unsupported devices you may come across in the future.
