First thing is to download the 3 files at the beginning of this thread

Root Kernel RAR

Restore Display Kernel RAR

Saferoot ZIP

You will also need ODIN 3.07 or similar version.You can find that download all over here on XDA.

This device does not have Developer option in settings so you will need yo go to your dialer and dial *#0808#

This will bring up modem options, choose the last one

DM+MODEM+ADB hit OK.

Next plug your phone into your computer and make sure you have the drivers for your phone installed for this modem setting. They should install automatically, to check go to device manager in control panel and make sure your phone is identified.

** Samsung KIES does not support this device so you may have to search the web for drivers if not installed automatically.

Your phone should ask to trust this computer or not, if so select always trust. ( This is important as once you flash the first kernel your display will be blank until the other is flashed so you will not be able to authorize your computer)

It would be a good idea to make a backup of everything on your device at this time if you have not already done so. Also, i am in no way responsible for you bricking or messing up your phone in any way.

Once all this is complete unplug device from computer. Reboot phone into download mode by holding

Home+Volume Down+ Power

Start ODIN (Run As Administartor)

Select PDA Slot, Flash the tar file Root Kernel. But before you flash you will need to extract the rar contents and rename the file boot.tar.

After this you will have no display.

Now the Saferoot steps

The Saferoot file you downloaded has several files in ZIP that you need to unzip.

"install.bat"

"install.sh"

"files"

Double click or right click and run as administrater the "install.bat" file and it will open a cmd prompt window that will begin the root process.

It will ask first if you want to install BusyBox, i alsways do but thats your choice.

Let the program run through until it reboots and do not close the program just unplug from computer and reboot int download mode again.

Plug into computer again and run ODIN select PDA again, flash Restore Display Kernel, but again you will need to extract the rar file and rename it boot.tar

Install SuperUser from Play Store and update if it ask to update binary.

The Saferoot is still open waiting for device so continue with that and let it finish.

You are now rooted.

Any questions or help just ask and i will do what i can.

Yes just hit OK, then just back out of the modem menu. If phone never asked for debugging authorization, check in control panal, devices that your phone shows up as a samsung phone and you should be ok.
