Normally dalvik dont need wipe from user as there is no rom in/out while stock.

It wiped automatically during ota update.

For me that im changing my builds all the time i do need to wiping dalvik and i do need nandroid and more personally as i m repairing my device i dont care if i have to return it to samsung as there are many ways to return it like stock

Also if this is for only flashing new roms there is not a problem as the option for dalvik is present in mobile odin pro

I said cf root v6.4 works with jb. It contains cwm which works also. Cwm app has limited functions on jb but the essentials work.

So u must have missed this....
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] donalgodon:
The app was the thing I was talking about. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Prodepressiva:
So to sum everything up:

This method with auto-root will get your flash counter to 1 and it will say modified and you won't revieve OTA-Updates

The old CF-Root won't update flash counter but it will lagg the shi* out of your phone.

Hm.

Is there any quick root that just does that? Add root? Without adding to the flash counter and removing OTAs and without lagging?

I'm on JB now and on ICS I had CF-Root giving me lags but root with OTA still intact (I got JB OTA) and without affecting flash counter.

Please tell me.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
I must be very confused because I don't understand all your problems.

You are too used to Sammy world !!! On other phones you just root, and then AFTER you install a custom recovery!

CF is just reproducing this behavior because he doesn't want a custom recovery. It's just that it is more simple to flash a custom recovery,and then using it to flash super user.

You can run any recovery you want once you are rooted ! Just install Mobile Odin and flash either TWRP either Touch CWM 6, they are all good.

And stop with your obsession of flash counter, modified or not! The best way way to be official/unmodified is to stay on stock. Just set Triangle away to reset count at each boot if you can't sleep with it. And honestly I really don't understand how I did it because I'm official count 0 and I use a custom recovery, I have a custom kernel and evidently I use rooted ROMs (to root I used Toolkit 5.0).
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Chainfire:
Root itself does not lag the phone.

Every root method using a custom kernel and/or recovery to root will increase your flash counter.

TriangleAway can be used to reset the counter.

Having a custom kernel/recovery and a non-0 flash counter will prevent most OTAs from flashing succesfully.

More simple depends on what you're after :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Gainn:
ok to use on jelly bean or is this just ICS?

If we flash a rom with mobile Odin with everoot option selected and inject supersu option, we don't need to flash cf-auto-root because we are not adding or chsnging anyting, right?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] OttarA:
Thanks Chainfire, I finally understand how you sammy people think :) No need for custom recovery when you have Odin and a really nice root method. Yes it increased my flash number to one, but that's why we got Triangle away ;) Donated a Norwegian beer to you :cowboy: enjoy
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Ttblondey:

Hi,

I updated my SGS3 i9300, android 4.3 I9300 XXUGM39. All was working properly, also Encryption of device.

After rooting with CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300 is no more possible "Encrypt device". The mobile is re-boots and then starts up normally without Encryption.

I need this for corporate mail.

Can you help, please ?

I followed the instructions step-by-step. Odin says it's all good - nothing happens on my S3. I tried the workaround with unchecking "Auto Reboot" - still nothing. I'm on the official 4.1.2. XXEMG4

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AnnS:
Hi! I want to root a Galaxy S3, but I've read that there might be issues when getting an OTA. But I'm thinking that with this method there shouldn't be any issues, since it doesn't install (or keep) a custom recovery. What should I keep in mind if I root the phone? Since it's not mine, but my mother's. Will she be able to update her phone via an OTA (in that case, losing root, which would be fine)? I don't want to accidentaly/indirectly brick her phone.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] shinyazz52:
If device is modified taking ota can cause problems. I would wait for ota then root
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AnnS:
Oh, OK! Thank you for your answer. I think I'll wait. If the phone was mine it wouldn't be an issue, but since it's not, well. :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Barney1954:
You can also use ChainFire's Triangle Away. It can be used to set counter back to O. If you root your phone and put a custom recovery on it, the counter changes to 1. Triangle Away is used to reset it.

Have you tried updating/downloading SuperSU after flashing CF-Auto root?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] swipermusic:
Yes its downloaded but just keeps saying there is no su binary.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mrnikt:
It works but ... also leaves phone with MODIFIED status... YES I used TriangleAway and wiped phone few times.

I suspect, its because of old recovery in Auto Root :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Thomasba:
I can also confirm that this method works fine with MK6 BTU it it didn't install SuperSU but I added it from the play store and after it's own update it ran perfectly. I then used triangle away and now it show "0" "Official" "Official" when I go into Download mode.

Thank you Chainfire...donation on it's way! :good:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] supertommy82:
yes i have this problem too...

i was using stock italian 4.1.2 rooted with cf-autoroot and then cleaned with triangleaway... and system was 100% original 24h/24h

so i recived an OTA upgrade that was this 4.3 mk6 and no way to have system original like with 4.1.2

if the problem is the old recovery in autoroot can we flash the new recovery extracted from this new 4.3 firmware?

or maybe problem is not tath?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] pizzaman79:
On the autoroot.chainfire.eu website it says "name m0xx". Does this refer to a specific rom? Or will this method work with any rom and any Android version? (i've tried finding the answer in this thread, i'm sure it's there somewhere but i couldn't find it)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] shinyazz52:
It doesn't refer to a specific rom no, you just download the file that is specifically for your phone model, ie i9300.

Posted from my rooted S3!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] chrismast:
(1) please read the guides & FAQs to understand the difference between roms etc.

(2) for your question: just make sure you download the appropriate file for your device (I9300) and you should be fine, it is not rom connected.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] pizzaman79:
I sure did :) That however didn't answer my question.

Hi

I want to flash the I9300XXUGMK6_I9300OXAGMK6_BTU rom on my I9300 and then root with CF Auto Root.

I'd be grateful of you guys could help clarify a few things for me:-

I am unable to download the zip file from Terrafile (via Sammobile) - the download link constantly times out. Any alternatives?

Any known issues with this ROM?

Any problems with using CF Auto Root on this ROM?

Many thanks :good:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Thomasba:
I had the same problem trying to get the file from Sammobile so I used Kies instead and did an OTA.

It is reported that it is not possible to keep Settings> About Device>Device Status>Official on 4.3 MK6 and newer

You can get Offcial/Official in Download mode, but the status in Settings>About would revert to Custom AFTER FIRST USE of the Application which requires Root priveleges.

In other words:

CF-AUTO-ROOT> TriangleAway>Unfreeze SysScope>reboot will bring you Official status eveywhere

BUT once you will execute app requiring Root - something is triggered and on next reboot the status will be Custom in the Settings.

In order to revert it back to Official - you have to either do a Full Unroot from SuperSU or complete the CF-AUTO-ROOT again.

Tricks with simply Freezing/Unfreezing SysScope do not work anymore on 4.3 from GMK6

Yes it will work on your phone but make sure you read the first post and FULLY understand it.

Once you're rooted you can do almost anything including turn it into a doorstop so be careful.

Happy rooting.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] shinyazz52:
This will work fine on your phone with 4.1.2. But after you will have to install a custom recovery as this root method leaves you with stock recovery from which you can't flash custom roms. Don't worry about bootloader just install a custom recovery.

If you root your S3 Samsung will only find out of you send it to them for warranty without unrooting. Also it won't show a triangle, but it will show a red exclamation mark in top left hand corner whilst the phone boots. You can use triangle away to stop this.

Time to use the forbidden word "unroot" on here I'm afraid :( new phone turning up today and my S3 is going to another family member. I'd prefer to give it to them completely stock/unrooted so is it just a simple restore from Kies or do I need to do anything else first?

I know I could leave it rooted and just say nothing but if it's completely stock then they can use Kies or OTA for their updates and they'll also not bother me when they find out it is rooted and want to use it to try and change the world! :)

Hi,

This method works well with Galaxy S3 running on 4.3, I9300XWUGML4 firmware. I have done rooting using this method and succedded. No need to downgrade. Make sure you strictly follow the steps mentioned.

Software updates thru OTA is not allowed after rooting by this method. You may need to unroot and update the OS thru OTA/Kies.

Hope we may receive 4.4 kitkat in future else no need to unroot :P
