Download the CF-Auto-Root exploit from official Chainfire’s site here, look for SPH-L710 model.

A Sprint Galaxy S3 smartphone (SPH-L710) running official Android 4.4.2 from OTA.

Unzip the “CF-Auto-Root-d2spr-d2spr-sphl710.zip” it until you find a file with .tar.md5 extension and an odin executable (*.exe) file.

Run the Odin by double-clicking the executable file.

Soon after the Odin window comes out, click on “PDA” button and look for a “.tar.md5″.

Look at Option area, make sure the Repartition option not checked.

Grab your phone, then put it in download mode, with this magic combo key (Volume down + Home + Power). You’ll get a warning, opt to continue.

Attach the phone to your PC via USB cable. At this stage, Odin should find out your phone, if not, there’s should be a problem with your phone’s drivers.

Now you’re ready, click on the “Start” button, the flashing procedure should done in minutes, but don’t ever interrupt the process. Once the Odin shows a PASS, the phone will reboot on its own.

Once fully boots up, update your SuperSU apps via Play Store, and run it. Now your Sprint Galaxy S3 running KitKat ND8 should rooted at this point.

im am on the stock rom 4.4.2 like above has told me. at this point and now.

ok so i have root checker and says that i am rooted and i can use superSU just fine and file explore accepts root.

downloaded busybox and installed download and TWRP manager is on my phone . now when im in TWRP it brings up a teamwin in the back ground and a side bar for home classic backup live backup restore install TWRP manger and reboot options and settings . i also have goo manager i dont know what to do step by step and have been looking on rootjunkys web site for answers but that build is diff since im on sprint and 4.4.2 .. stock . my problem is my single keeps going from 2 bars of 3g to and x . i can even get pasted the activation . im on straight talk for a service provider. so pretty much i can make phone calls or msg or data . sometimes it works then 5 sec later fails. i had that prob on the droid but when i switched to cm11 everything was fine a dandy . so plz advise me what to do next or where i went wrong. oh and i can get into recovery but have no idea what to do when i get there or what i can use it for. i have been told there is no boot-loader lock on this device so no need to worry about that . i never got the MLS code but i dont need since im rooted and can obviously get some type of single or it would be blocked. my phone number shows up in status info under about phone. i dont know any key codes to set the prl or apns like i do on the droid bionic with a gsm network . im a software dev in training for eclipse but none of my fellow students know how so i gotta ask my main guys at XDA. plz help. also why cant i see dev options in my device . i wanna set up my own PRL and stuff idk help me plz.

in the past i have rooted and loaded and unlocked the boot loader and switched radio bands on a moto droid bionic . i can do that all because i understand how to use safe strap . and i have patched it perfect with a build prop so im not a complete noob im just stuck on the new stuff. also flash roms for cm11 works great but im stuck on the SG3.
