[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JTertin:
Now things are getting a little more urgent...

After not receiving any suggestions, I went ahead and did a factory reset on my phone... After restarting (and before installing any apps), I tried the camera with the same issue - after the camera app loads, I have a black screen for about 5 seconds which is followed by a warning message that states "Camera failed". To reiterate, the camera on this phone did work until I used the toolkit to root it. At this point, I would like to take it "completely" back to stock by flashing the stock bootloader back on to the phone (replacing the insecure one since I assume this is what is causing the problem). Does anyone have this available, or have any other last-ditch suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] vampir4997:
Are you using a custom kernal by chance? Maybe that is the cause of the camera not working. Maybe try a camera app from the play store,maybe your camera app got messed up somehow.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] post-mortem:
A factory reset is not the same as flashing the stock ROM via Odin. Specifically, factory reset doesn't touch the files in /system. Your camera app is likely a system app, so do what vampir4997 suggested 1st, to make sure it's not a hardware problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JTertin:
I know that a reset is not the same as flashing via ODIN, but it was a first shot at it. After the factory reset didn't work, I re-flashed the phone using the stock flashing tool from Samsumg. After doing that, the camera works again. So now at least I have a plan to get back to a functioning phone if this happens again, but I would still like to use the toolkit on this phone to root it (and still have a camera afterward). Can anyone confirm that it has actually worked on the US Cellular SCH-R530U?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] krapt0:
I have done a few phones from different carriers with no problems. I have also unrooted for warranty reasons and then re rooted. I used the all in one method to root. After root I used goo manager to download and flash cm10.1
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JTertin:
I have used the toolkit and all-in-one option several times before also (successfully). I'm going to uninstall the driver that the stock flashing took installed, re-install the driver from the toolkit, and give it another try later today now that I know I can recover from it if it does not work. I'll let you know how it goes!

Hello. I am new to the s3 and would like to root using this toolkit. My build number is us att JRO03L. In the toolkit I see android 4.1.1 and similar build number but it has a "C" not the "L." Will the us att 4.1.1 with the C work? Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] brushrop03:
So I'm on the latest and greatest CM10 stable that was released a couple of days ago.

I've been having issues with my softkeys (they stop working and I have to power cycle my screen to get them to work again :()

Pretty sure it's not the ROM as I've been on a couple of AOSP/AOKP roms and same issue.

What would be the steps I would take to get back to Stock Touchwiz so I can send my phone in for repair? Would I just need to select "

Option 8: Download, Extract, +Flash Stock ROM via ODIN"

Trying not to brick this sucker before taking it back. Has been a while since I've seen a Touchwiz ROM.

Thanks

Any news on where we can get toolkit v7.5. (Rogers 4.1.2 support)? I I have searched through several threads and can't find it. (if there's redundancy, my apology)

Two thumbs up for the Devs who created the toolkit! Awesome work guys!!! Keep it up!

Hi all,

I donated and got a licence code

while following the directions install licence, the toolkit asks for a 10 licence number, i got way bigger number than 10 digits. of course, it tells me that it is an incorrect number.

Am i doing something wrong?

Wifi ?

So I read the thread before posting and I read thouroughly. Was wondering if somebody could help out with a no wifi problem. I used the toolkit to root my brand new S3 and install CWM recovery. I'm running the S3 on 4.1.2 and the root took just fine and im rooted but have no wifi. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

7.5.1 Push and Sideload Trouble. "& was unexpected at this time."

I have the latest "donation" 7.5.1 version of the toolkit and all the menu items I've used except for "10. Push Files to Device", and "14. Install Zip File to Device via Sideload" work as expected. However, when I try to use either of the two commands mentioned, as soon as the toolkit runs the ADB command it returns the error, "& was unexpected at this time.", then exits out to the command prompt.

My phone is an AT&T Samsung SGH-I747, DLK3, with the stock 4.1.1 ROM, rooted.

Can you tell me how to fix this problem?

Thanks,

Greg

When I rooted using the toolkit it was because the insecure boot was not an exact match I was on the mumbll1 and the I747M was from Canada so check that you can download the stock firmware from the tool to restore wife, my solution was to download the kitchen and create my own stock rooted rom

Same Issue Here, Camera Fails After Rooting

I have exactly the same issue, and under the same circumstances. Step by step, I had done everything JTertin described, resulting having to remain unrooted in order to have use of the camera. I don't see any follow up from JTertin as to whether he/she was able to successfully root and keep camera function. Anyone know?

After noob-rooting my three previous phones and having had this one rooted when it was 4.1.1, I despise having to deal with an unrooted phone, but have no choice if I want the use of my camera and be on 4.1.2. Insanity = doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different outcome each time... I'm on the verge of rooting again, same method, on the insane thought that this time might be different, even though I know nothing's changed and I will lose my camera again! Help me stop the insanity!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jimchee:
I first of all am not a developer and I have an s3 in Mexico on telcel and this what I did to fix my camera and wifi issues I found, on xda, the rooted stock img, which in my case was Puerto Rico image in order to stay rooted and installed it through recovery, wipe, data, cache and the I went on the Samsung site and downloaded the proper image for telcel then I used dsixda's kitchen and rooted and debloated the stock rom, this fixed my wifi but in order to get the camera working I had to format the internal storage after I did that I now have everything working, and learning the kitchen was very simple for me even the first time I used it, which was 2 weeks ago, I have Ubuntu dual booted on my laptop but you can run it from a usb stick, with a Windows computer, there are many places on xda or just Google it to find the instructions I hope this helps you all with your issues
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JTertin:
I wouldn't get your hopes up - I have used the toolkit several times on the same "hopes" that it might work if only I try again. I'm officially insane and have given up on retrying. To respond to your quote - I have not successfully been able to root and keep my camera functioning. I sent an email to markskippen on 8/9 for help and offered (and continue to offer to anyone) to provide any material that might help solve this issue. I am patiently awaiting an update to my donate-version toolkit that will hopefully address this issue. In the meantime, let me know if you find a solution!

AT&T 4.1.2?

Any idea of when the AT&T 4.1.2 model numbers will be available as an option? Mine is JZO54K.I747UCDMG2. I'm sure there will be lots of others needing this because of the 4.1.2 push last week...

I'm at square one. My phone is stock... not rooted, no recovery - so not able to do any of that. From what I understand someone needs to upload a Stock boot image of 4.1.2 - but you need to use the toolkit to do that. mskip emailed me saying he'd try to get to it soon... I'm patient.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Agent5150:
Also waiting for AT&T 4.1.2 My phone is telling me that there is an update available. but it fails because I am on custom recovery.

I am hoping this tool kit can install AT&T 4.1.1 recovery so I can update to 4.1.2. I am assuming I will not be able to root it since the tool kit does not list option for AT&T 4.1.2 build(s). Correct?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PDADoc:
I'm in the same boat as you are. Can't update due to having TWRP and really don't want to switch back to stock recovery for this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Agent5150:
So AT&T 4.1.2 is not rootable?. If I go back to stock recovery, do ota update to 4.1.2.. can this tool reinstall twrp or cwm recovery so I can flash supersu on to 4.1.2?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] scottmcm:
You can go back to stock recovery to get the ota update. Then use the tool to flash TWRP. I don't know about flashing su in this arrangement though. The phone auto-replaces the recovery with stock on boot so you will have to pull the battery after flashing to stop it then use the buttons to get into recovery manually. I just did this to pull the file that Mark needs to update the toolkit top support AT&T 4.1.2.

Hey Mark...e-mail sent with the info you needed to do an update! Thanks!!!

I have a SG-i747M (Rogers). I am using the latest pro version of the toolkit. I flashed the latest TouchWiz 4.1.2 of the ROM via odin, however if I root it using either via superuser methods, WiFi won't turn on.

I have verified in my tests that SU breaks the WiFi. It breaks it by:

1. Not being able to turn it on via the quick settings

2. When you go to settings and attempt to enable Wifi, it just states "Turning on".

Flashing back to stock ROM 4.1.2 of Touchwiz fixes it again but not rooted.

Flash stock before it Boots all the way up @ Bootanimation pull battery go into stock recovery format system and cash this will wipe your internal SD i.e. will format it, you should be good to go after that for ota but you definitely need to format SD to get rid of residual data its why its see's your phone as up to date.

Don't think anyone has pulled 4.1.2, and made Oden flashable .tar, i've been flashing 4.1.1 then doing an OTA... works fine. For just Bootloader and modem (MG2) go to first postcount on S3Rx Rom. You can flash this over 4.1.1 then flash a 4.1.2 ROM.

Don't know what went wrong, I downloaded the toolkit.... Connected my phone, it was in USB Debugging mode, Followed all instructions, I went to root it and it did everything, Noticed the phone went black.. No lights on, Nothing.... Now my phone won't turn on, Do nothing.. Battery is charged, I plugged it in to the wall, Nothing... I push the power button, It vibrates... "Samsung" pops up for like 2 secs...Then it goes black, Does nothing... I try pushing buttons, nothing... I tried holding the power, Home and volume up... Same thing... I can get it into Odin mode and it does work, But That's all I can get it to do.

How can I fix this?

Download the following --> CF-AUTO ROOT from:

this will root your phone.

then download "goo manager" from the playstore --> This will install twrp recovery

Supported devices and latest supported builds *HERE*

ChangeLog

Unified Android ToolKit v1.2.4 [Galaxy S3 V8.0.0] 10th March 2014

+Added support for Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini,*Samsung Galaxy S4 and*Samsung Galaxy Note 2

+Updated support for latest builds in all device modules

+Root options support insecure boot and custom recovery methods [all rewritten]

+Added KNOX notification disabler for Samsung modules

+Added Root Checker to check the status of your root/busybox

+Added more help screens to the Information section and added ability to save screen and send to default printer

+Added philz_touch Advanced cwm recovery to Samsung modules [will be added to Nexus modules soon]

+Added option in build selection screen to disable all adb root functions [custom recovery functions available]

+Toolkit will disable insecure boot functions if insecure boot image not available

+Updated Samsung drivers to 1.5.33.0

Existing activation codes will still work to update device modules in the Unified Android Toolkit to the pro version of the device you donated to. I am updating the Auto Updates for the newly supported devices but it's probably easier to download the full version and re-activate as it is such a big update.

If you have any feedback please send it to markskippen@gmail.com for now as emails to toolkit.support@skipsoft.net are still not coming through to me.

Hope you enjoy.
