Please provide some more information. Perhaps the link to the XDA TV root method you used as well as your current software installed on your device. Thank you!

yes i used this, i followed carefully every step.
That's how I would root this phone:
1)install some recovery
2)flash super-su zip
Hopefully it should work.

Hi,
I've got some problem with the mini USB port and I'd like to send send it to samsung for the warranty. I need to install a stock ROM but I can't do it with Odin.
Is it possible to flash a stock ROM with a .zip through CWM?
use mobile Odin. don't forget to reset the counter.
ps our phone uses micro usb, not mini
which counter are you talking about?
is there a free version of mobile odin? I can't find it

There is in XDA , search it inside forum.
The counter he talks about is Samsung bootloader count how many times of custom ROM has been flashed in order to kill your warranty, but relax, mobile Odin doesn't increase the count.
More info about this, search "triangle away "
But be careful with firmware you flash into the phone, because triangle away is still unable to reset count number in latest bootloader

resetting the counter requires root
but installing a ROM after resetting the counter will change it?
good
can you be more specific?
thank you

Apologies if I'm hijacking this thread, but this problem is almost exactly the same as mine. The microUSB on my S3 is also broken and I need to unroot before I send it to Samsung, however I'm having real trouble with SuperSU. It keeps saying installation failed when I open the app and am prompted to update it and I can't get Triangle Away to work as it says it is not being given superuser permissions. I figure I need Triangle Away to unroot my phone so is there any way to rectify this?

Go to Google Play, dl and install the free version of Super User from Google Play. Perhaps your version is corrupted.

If successful with Super User dl from Google Play then do an xda search for Mobile Odin Lite v3.57. No need for USB port. BTW: Are you certain that you are rooted?

One other IMPORTANT thing: Before you use Mobile Odin, make certain that your model phone is supported, there is a list of supported phones, just search for it.

Here's where I found a good guide for newbies:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675474
Read and fully understand all of it before you proceed and note all cautions!
Then go here for the Stock ROMs to flash:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800
Make certain you have the correct stock ROM for your country code.
Please take the time to read and do not proceed until you fully understand everything...it will save you countless headaches. My personal rule: "If You Don't Completely Understand It Then You're Not Ready To Do It."... works for me!

Please disregard the links and url's I've given you, they are for another phone.(I have 3 different android phones referenced in XDA forums)... this is for the wrong one. Sorry.
Hey Guys,
Hope you can help me, a friend asked me to root his Galaxy S3.
I did this using the Framaroot App and all was fine, but now SKY Go does not work on his device as Sky don't like rooted devices !!
He has now asked if i can unroot his device.
How can I remove superuser and the binaries so that the app will work?
Hope that someone can help.
Cheers
So have you unrooted the device yet? If not

Or go into settings in SuperSU, scroll down to the bottom and select Full Unroot (Cleanup for permanent unroot)
All done!!

Dude,
Thanks for the advice, I have now managed to unroot the device.
Forgot about unroot option in superuser....What a noob..LOL
Thanks for your help
Its alright using superuser, but it depends how you rooted and what you want to achieve. Yes it removes root from the rom, but it will leave it with a custom recovery if you had one.
Thanks

Dude,
I rooted using Framaroot, but have not installed any recovery on the device at the moment.
The issue was with the Sky Go app which dont like rooted devices.
Might see if I can modify the apk so that it can run on rooted devices.
Thanks for the help .

Hey Ghost...
What you need to do is download some PC software called 'flashtool'
Then using this tool you can flash what is known as an 'FTF'
Essentially this is a ROM that is pure stock, and stock kernel. It makes your device like it was out of the box.
Here is a guide on using flashtool LINK
Here is a link to the FTF's to download LINK
Don't be scared.. its a piece of cake. Personally i've flashed FTF's about 10 times per week... its easy
i get STUCK on:
''Running installftkit as root thru sysrun'' while attempting root.
Super user icon is on my phone, but if i try to flash recovery,its says 'to be implemented'
please advise,this is just one problem after another.
Yes, i've asked this question in a few places.
I'm desperate for answers...
it really is one nightmare after another.

Hi guys, I've read a lot of the posts here and am looking for the simplest way to go from the latest Sony firmware on a sgp312 to a custom ROM.
As far as I can see I need to root the tablet via kingroot backup the TA partition and unlock the bootloader. Then can I just flash via adb a custom ROM with recovery kernel?
Appreciate any help you can give with this.
Thanks
