Hi,

Thanks for your update! ;D

what Rom should i choose in your toolkit, if my current build is JRO03C.I9305XXALI7 ?

Does JRO0C. ALI5 work?

regards

If your rom version is not there then always go with closest version as you rarely go wrong with that approach.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] 380AU:
I lost root after upgrading to 4.1.2, and now my build number is something _completely_ different.

Build JZO54K.I9305XXBLL3

Previously it was JRO03C XXALI5.

Would it be wise to re-root using the same build number above which I used before?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] mskip:
Always root after selecting the build number that you are on NOW. The toolkit picks up the build that you have set and uses an insecure boot image for that build so if you try rooting with the Toolkit set to XXALI5 then it will use that build and may not work.

Restart the Toolkit or goto 'Toolkit Settings, Go to Model Selection Page' and type 13 to change to BLL3. That way you will stay safe :)

This is what I don't understand.

I have a "donated" version, have run an update, and my last option to select is #10 for the I9305 which is XXALJ7.

An option #13 is not available?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] 380AU:
I've re-downloaded the toolkit, which solved my problem and I now have the new updated version.

What I don't understand is why my toolkit wouldn't update in the first place?

No big drama, as I'll just download again when required, but curious as to why I don't receive any updates?

Hey Liquid, I'm doing a video on how to root using the toolkit for this device. I am on the first step "Install Device Drivers...etc". After I have done that, I go back to the Main Menu and my serial doesn't show. I have restarted my phone. Entered Debugging mode. made sure kies is uninstalled and drivers for samsung mobiles is installed. Also tried different usb ports.

build no: JZO54K BLL3

Okay, I justed sorted it out. I was fiddling around with the qualcomm usb settings after backing up my imei data earlier. All I did was change it back to MTP+ADB mode.

+Added support for GT-I9300 build XXELLC

+Fixed US variants versions displayed incorrectly in Model Selection screen

+Added GT-I9300 TWRP Recovery 2.3.3.1 image to Toolkit for easy flashing

+Added 'Fix Internal Storage Permissions' to Mods Menu [folder not showing]

+Minor bug fixes and improvements

[Auto Updates are only accessible if you have donated to the Toolkit project, received an activation code and unlocked the donator features. Auto Updates are a much faster and easier way of pushing small updates that would otherwise not be worth doing. I can push a single textual change or add support for a new build without having to go through the whole process of building a full version and uploading a large file. IF you are not able to or do not want to donate to unlock the Auto Update feature (and other donator features) then all the smaller updates are collated and a full build made when I have time or if there are enough updates to warrant it. This is the easiest way to make sure all the Toolkits are as up to date as possible. IF you have any views about this please pm me about them and do not post in the open thread]

Enjoy :)

Hi mskip.

Great work. The step by step description is "noobproof".

Just one little thing: After the auto-update to 7.1.0 (actually already during the update process), my Avast Antivirus tried to tell me, that this could be harmful software and wants to put ir in a sandbox, which of course I refused. (Well it could be harmful but only to your phone if you do not follow the steps right :) )

Maybe its good to know for everybody using Avast, that either it should be deactivated before starting the Toolkit, or the Toolkit should be in the excluded files for scan.

Nice evening everybody

Hey guys I've got a i9305 a couple of days ago and wanted to root it but never done it on a samsung device so after seeing all the options in screenshots on the first page I'm not really sure what should I do. The i9305 is an international LTE (Build JZO54K BLL5) it's simfree and I don't want a custom rom right now, I just want to root it so I can restore apps+data from my previous phone. But a friend of mine (with an i9300) told me if I root it OTA update will not work anymore.

So my questions are:

Is there any true to that Root = no OTA part? If so can I backup my current unrooted system partition or whatever it is I should backup with this software?

And which of the 7 methods should I use to root it?

Thx in advance guys
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Raistlin1158:
I upgraded with this as it gives you root but it is still stock, So OTA available.

Also no increase in the counter and it shows that it is original in all the settings.

Done and dusted in thirteen minutes with no worries.

Can I use the toolkit? Foolishly I updated 4.1.2 over KIES and i'm still on 4.1.2 but the build has changed. My Baseband version is I9305BVBLL2
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] johnnyblaze1977:
I upgraded via Kies when i got home with my new phone also, but have since used the toolkit no problem. Your build number should be BLL5 and i think this is what the toolkit uses.

If you are flashing FW with the toolkit then you need to have it already downloaded on your PC (via Samfirmware) and this is currently the latest build anyway (i have the same baseband as you). The toolkit opens up Odin for you but you need to direct it to the FW you downloaded.

Cheers

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] mskip:
It is only available as an Auto Update until a public version has been built which I will do as soon as I can. If you want to do it manually with V7.0.0 then you can download the model zip file from http://goo.im/devs/mskip/toolkit/samsung_galaxy_s3/model_files and extract the contents to the toolkit folder. You can then flash the insecure boot image for your model via odin as part of the root process but it will only install SuperSU 0.98 (I think) which you can then update via the app.

Wi-Fi won't turn on

I just rooted my Sprint GS3 using this root kit, everything went fine, but my wi-fi wont' turn on. I read this at the top of this thread:

Q. I flashed the Toolkit Boot Image, now my wifi + bluetooth won't work

The boot images are made from Stock with only needed changes made to the insecure boot images [modified adbd, default.prop and rc.local edited] and will work on all stock roms. If you flash them to a custom rom and the rom has been altered or uses a custom boot image then it will boot but certain modules may not load such as wifi or bluetooth. In this case you can use the boot image to root or perform adb root functions but will need to flash back the boot image for the custom rom to get other functions working again. This is not a fault of the Toolkit but a difference to stock in the custom rom.

I am not on a custom rom, but the above paragraph is confusing to me. Does this mean I have to flash the stock rom over my current stock rom? Where do I find it? And won't I lose everything and have to reinstall? Can someone please help me get my wifi back?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] mskip:
If you have a pure stock rom on your device then use the toolkit to flash back the stock boot image and see if that resolves your problem. Make sure you have selected the correct build for your model from the model selection screen to get the correct boot image.

1. On the Model Selection screen enter any number for your model
