Hi,

I tried the above method but did not seem to have my i9305 rooted. After following all the steps, i noted that i get the pop up that says supersu has stopped working, then i tried to manually install the superuser apk but it says "app did not install". I did a check withe rootchecker app, but somehow it says my phone is not rooted at all.

hope someone can help me here.

SHV-E220S

hi all,

I have device SHV-E220S Korean, and want it to root only to run root required apps. can I get help.

I tried ODIN to flash recovery but it failed, please see this:

please help.

Hello everybody, I need your help with recovering my network signal after failed rooting attempt.

Im not a new member but fairly new to rooting samsung phones.

Here is what happened: I wanted to simply root my phone to install a custom boot animation. My model is swh-440s, the Korean model of the sgs3.

I downloaded odin and the correct md5 file for rooting. I did everything as described in the first post. But: when trying to connect my phone in download mode it seemed to not be recognised by my computer. I am using win 8.1 and am afraid there are some driver issues with that os. I installed various drivers but in Odin there was never the "added" message that I read should appear when connecting the phone in download mode. Nevertheless, I hit the start button several times and there was a succesful 0 failed 0 message everytime i did that. I thought it had simply no effect....

but i was wrong. After turning on the phone again I recognised that there is no signal. No connection at all. Strange thing: imei and baseband is there. Everything seems normal, but no connection whatsoever.

I tried to google about my issue but found few helpful advices. Many users reported that to dial ##72786# helped them when having this issue. But i cannot seem to make those secret codes work...i need to research more about it. I also read about efs information and that i might be lost...

what i tried so far: i thought the cleverest move is to update the phone via kies and revert to stock. But...i find that slme information on the phone is not over written (f.e. I could find some wifi network names that i connected during tje last days...). And unfortunately it didnt resolve my issue.

then i downloaded phone info app from the play store and discovered something weird. My odin attemps seem to had an effect as my phone name and something else displays m0skt or whatever is the name of the root coder...that proves that i messed up trying to root it.

i have no idea what to do next as I have neither root nor a chance to succesfully connect my phone via usb while in download mode (data mode is fine when phone is turned on). I also tried all my usb ports and many drivers. Has anyone an idea how to revert my phone to get back signal?

Help is very much appreciated!

Great chain fire said in main site that :

UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS

If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !

what's that mean . im expert in root all devices but it is kind of worrying me ! galaxy phone that is not locked with carrier ( i mean international ) always have unlocked bootlaoder ?

please someone expert answer me .

Hey guys, I'm a bit of a newbie here..

So, I have the SHV-E210L version.. At first, the SuperSU app works fine but when I factory reset my phone a few days back, the SuperSU always force closes. So, I thought the root was broken. I used this root method, followed every step, downloaded the right .tar for my phone..etc.

When I first tried to flash the .tar.md5 on Odin, the phone rebooted and the screen flickered at the Samsung logo until it showed just black screen... After it booted on the homescreen/lockscreen, my touch does not work at all and the Menu and Back key are switched (the Menu is Back and Back is Menu), the Home button works fine, the volume works fine also but the touch screen is totally dead (untouchable).

I'm on 4.3 Jellybean.

Could somebody help me? Does anyone experienced this before? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I hope @Chainfire has some answers for me. :(

My phone is in Orange carrier, country RO, so it will not break anything on my phone, right? I thought that the GTI9305 is for the international OS.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] heywheelie:
I noticed an updated version of CF-auto-root has just been released (nice work Chainfire) on the 10th. Just wondered why it includes Odin v3.07 when Odin 3.10 has been released?

Will CF-auto-root work with Odin 3.10 on a KK stock rom or should I stick with the included Odin 3.07?

Do I need to install the Samsung USB driver for mobile devices before using CF-auto-root?

cheers

Mobile Odin

Hallo,

can I root my device also with Mobile Odin? If yes, where should I place the zip-file?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
No you can't. You need to be rooted to use mobile Odin.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Sepp-Wurzel:
Strange thing. I seem to have root, but it is not shown and I see a # in the status bar. So I would like the reinstall by mobile odin
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Find a SuperSu zip file and flash via recovery if you already have root. I think 2.40 is the latest stable and you can find it on Chainfire's site.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Sepp-Wurzel:
I tried rooting my i9305 using the method described in first thread on stock 4.3. When I run android I it Says SuperSu is not working. Also tried to update via playstore... No success!

I tried with cf-auto-root. On f first page it is written that there is a difference between this and cf-root. But I cannot find a link to this.

Pleas help want to sell the phone and reset counter therfore.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KeTuRr74:
[QUOTE/]- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!

- Unzip the attached Odin3-vX.X.zip file

- Download and unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)

- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one

- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer

- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe

- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5

- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)

- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer

- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked

- Click the Start button

- Wait for Android to boot

- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)

- NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode and root your device. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install root and such, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, pull the battery, and boot with VolUp+Home+Power button to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.

New to Samsung? Unfamiliar with Odin? Think all the above is a hassle? Get used to it. It's very simple, and us Samsung folk use Odin (or Mobile ODIN ￼) for everything! It's so very very convenient once you get used to it. Notice the 30 second comment above? For experienced users, the entire process indeed takes only 30 seconds!

You may now optionally want to install and run Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.[/QUOTE]

Sorry I don´t get the point! I did everything accoring to the manual, I don´t know what should have done other.

After flashing with ODIN, phone restarts to recovery (red android symbol). As soon as android is booted, it tells that SuperSu has stopped and any app prevented it from running

Hi So I want to root a Galaxy S3 I9300, currently with JB 4.3. If I do root it using this method, will it be able to receive an OTA for whenever the 4.4 update comes? Will there be issues? Has anyone rooted and then received an OTA?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mpadhu:
You will not be able to receive OTA after rooting the device irrespective of the methods used. And moreover there is not going to be any 4.4 update for S3 I9300.

Instead you can flash custom ROMs and enjoy Android 4.4 or 5.x.x

---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 AM ----------

Yes. You will be able to instal CWM after rooting by this method or any other methods.

[MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]: I've found your root kernel for the GT-I9305 at https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/. However, the Android version listed for the root kernel is v4.4.4.

Would this root kernel work for other Jellybean versions like v4.1, v4.2 and/or v4.3? Or, using this root kernel with the above Jellybean versions might soft-brick the device?

Please respond.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] racky29:
On that page is a list of device models and download link, just select the correct one, if you have a i9300 it will work for jb,4.1 an 4.3

What device you want it for i9305

It should work the same, because it copies the original kernel, writes a new one for root. Then copies the original kernel back to phone, so should be ok

SM-G900R4 works with V6.0.1

First time rooter here, have a US cellular galaxy S5 (SM-G900R4), unlocked from the network before I bought the phone, no SIM installed, recently updated OTA with V6.0.1 dec 1, 2016 patch level.

Ran the CF-auto root, and it ran without bricking the device. I do get a "set warranty bit" message on the first boot screen though.

I'm mentioning this since it was only guaranteed for android V5.0, and it looks successful on 6.0.1.

Link was through androidcentral.us/2014/04/how-to-root-us-cellular-galaxy-s5-sm-g900r4

linked to download.chainfire.eu/404/CF-Root1/CF-Auto-Root-klteusc-klteusc-smg900r4.zip

Ran it with the included ODIN software and it worked fine. Installed titanium backup and it did get superuser permissions... so this version worked.
