Re: [SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT V7.0] Drivers, Backup, Root, Recovery + MORE [

Okay, toolkit is downloaded, extracted, and in motion, but one problem, when I press 2 for root, choose my recommended options, and get started, itll bring up odin for the root, I click on pda, go to the toolkit, and go through the root file, nothing is there, just nothing, same for the other files except recovery files, can someone help, had the phone since monday, I've read, read again, read again and again, thanks to the person that helped,

Thanks for the wonderful share.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] OKAstro:
MSkip - I've had a lot of trouble with the newest version of Samsung Drivers (v1.5.14.0). PC not recognizing the phone, your program not recognizing the phone.

Googled a bit and others have had problems too. Suggestion was to go back to previous version (v1.4.6.0). Did that and your program and PC work fine now.

Perhaps you could provide both versions in next release, so user could use earlier version if necessary.

Thanks

Re: [SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT V7.0] Drivers, Backup, Root, Recovery + MORE [

I don't think so simply because there are so many variants of the s3 that the file would be huge. Although if you download your particular s3 variant and then go offline it will work. That's how i did it while rooting a friends s3.

Offline

There are only two posts with the word offline and neither of them address this issue. Neither of my two AT&T S3s running 4.2.2 (LiquidSmooth) will not connect to this tool. It shows offline. I have tried this on two different computers using two different cables and the issue persists. When I try to execute a command, say, reboot, the response is "device offline". Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Flashed a different ROM and the phone connected just fine.

I don't want to pay for an unlock service so I am going to follow this thread.

I assume if an unlock for the S3(i747) is developed it will be added to the toolkit?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] romracer:
Can't you just use this?

Worked for me. Just back up your SD card (internal and external) and make a nandroid of your current install. I flashed the ICS 4.0.4 release, performed that procedure and verified the phone was unlocked. Restored nandroid and SD card backups and boom, back to where I started + unlocked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DelphinusMinor:
If you try this on JB 4.2.2 nothing happens. You don't get any options. I rolled back to JB 4.1.2 and doing this I was at least able to get to that menu.

I don't have a sim card from another carrier at the moment so I won't be attempting this until later this week. I'll report back once I do. =-}
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] post-mortem:
You need to be on 4.1.1, or the option you're looking for won't show up in the menu. If you need to downgrade anyway, might as well downgrade to 4.1.1.

Hey guys, gonna root my fiancee's phone have a really quick question that's probably super obvious. We're going to install SuperNexus on it. If I backup with this toolkit, can I restore to my phone AFTER installing SuperNexus or will it not recognize things because it's a different rom? If so, what's the best backup option so she can keep all of her app data and stuff? Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] neveronie:
Its stuck on waiting for ADB mode ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SKIMMAH:
Are you plugging in your phone while in recovery or download mode? There's no need to do that as the tool kit does it for you. Make sure USB debugging is enabled and plug in your phone normally. The toolkit will detect it and reboot into the required state.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DelphinusMinor:
I tried this method on 4.2.2, 4.2.1, 4.1.2, and 4.1.1. I didn't get one of the options you are supposed to get near the end, which is menu option four.

I may wait for it to be added to this tool, or just pay to get it unlocked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] post-mortem:
Yeah. As I understand, that menu option 4 was removed in 4.1.2. My suggestion is to try it again, booting up with no SIM installed. Make sure you wait the 30 seconds, to be sure that's not the issue. And, if SHA256 ON doesn't work, try SHA256 OFF (on different websites, I've seen both of those mentioned, so I'm not sure which is right).

Good luck!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DelphinusMinor:
Thanks, I don't get option 4 on 4.1.1. I believe this only works on a totally stock rom.

I will try the SHA256ON and OFF also.

I heard this works well on the Frosty JB rom tho. So going to see if I can find a version for my phone model.

HI !

I'm a total noob in rooting, and I've been linked here by user POST-MORTEM.

I installed the toolkit and before I do anything wrong, I want to make sure witch option is the wright one for me.

First...Samsung Galaxy S3 from Telus Model SGH-I747M JB 4.1.1 Build: JRO03L.I747MVLDLK4 (does not figure in build list)

Second...The only thing I want is rooting ONLY without loosing anything on my phone and keeping everything as is. Is it possible ? If yes then witch option is the wright one for me.

Sorry for my bad english.

Thank you very much for your help.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mistral150:
Thanks a lot... After option 2, which one is the next. the first ? (remember, I'd like to keep the phone with everything I already have)

1. Flash Insecure Boot Image and Root Phone

2. Flash Insecure Boot Image, Root + Install Busybox

3. ALLINONE [Flash Insecure Boot, Recovery, Root, Busybox, Rename Restore Files]

4. Flash Custom Recovery + Install Root via Recovery [ANY build]

5. Flash Recovery. Root, Busybox + Rename Restore Files via Recovery [ANY build]

6. Flash Stock Boot Image back to your phone [Can do after Rooting if desired]

...Why i'm I so scared of doing this ???? :confused:

Thank again.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SKIMMAH:
Option 1 or 2. Most applications require busybox, but rooting does not change anything user defined.

I would do more research if you're really unsure about what you're doing. The toolkit makes it pretty easy as is. Just read everything before selecting each option.

Reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache once again. If it still gets stuck, power off and back on normally. Worked for me on multiple occasions.

To downgrade simply download a stock image from the downloads section, then extract the .tar.md5 image and flash it via odin. Lastly reboot to stock recovery and wipe data to make sure you dont get a boot loop.

I was wondering if the Samsung Galaxy S3 toolkit supports my model of phone.

My device is an AT&T

model: samsung-sgh-i747

version: 4.0.4

baseband V: I747UCLH9

Build: IMM76D.I747UCALH9
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] post-mortem:
It is supported, but do you mean that you want to stay on 4.0.4? You don't want to upgrade to 4.1.x?

I have the i747, and it came with 4.1.1. This toolkit worked for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] yeroc1982:
I also rooted from 4.1.1, and now running a 4.2.2 rom. This toolkit is very simple to use.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] oreo918:
No sir, I would very much like to update to 4.1.x.

Here's my dillemma. I have a year manufacturer's warranty on the the phone. I have used the warranty twice which both times my phone was rooted. And they either couldn't see that it was rooted or just over-looked it. So I am scared of bricking my phone due to the fact that the dumbest sales person will start to look into it being rooted most-likely if I show up a 3rd time with a phone that won't power on. Now I am being extra careful although I am not a noob at this stuff. I AM NEW to the device.

When the samsung toolkit comes up and asks me to select the device I am using, the build number (IMM76D ALH9) does not match up with any of the selections. I was leaning towards selecting #41 which is ( IMM76D ALG1 ) in the toolkit. I just wanted to make sure that, that in fact was correct option to use before I go off and start the rooting process. I would use ODIN but I don't have all the files downloaded and already have the Toolkit on my PC so I want to learn this tool as it seems to be a very usefull/effective utility.

And how do I know if my device isn't the i747M?

Thank You for you quick responses. And your time.
