[Q] Trying to root I9305 build nr JZO54K BME3 - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hi there,
I was attempting to root and flash my I9305 with the Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit V7.0
My build nr is JZO54K.I9305XXBME3 (T-Mobile, Germany) but it seems this exact build is not listed!
Does anyone have any experiences in rooting this exact build? This is my first attempt to root a phone and I really don't want to mess up
It would be great to get some help on this!

you cannt find answer for everything here.
In my opinion,be careful enough and then just do it,that's what is called developer.
Always backup first~

Suggest you take your time and read the faqs and guides first .

any update happened??? i mean did u update to andriod kitkat?

You need to flash a custom recovery such as ClockworkMod or TWRP and then you can try to flash SuperSU zip file (Google allows you to find everything).

Want to root my Samsung Galaxy s3 4G confused

Hello all,
I have read many posts about rooting the phone above but am confused.
All i want to do is root the phone and keep the original rom.
If i root it then update to 4.1.2 jellybean when its released for my phone do i have to root it again?
I really need to know step by step the process so i dont mess it up.
Firstly i beleive i need to backup my iemi is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1946915 the correct procedure?
I then save that file it generates incase i need to restore is this correct?
I was then going to use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125414 but am confused where it says "Flash an Insecure Kernel before using Samsung Quick Root".
Where do i find an insecure kernal for the above phone?
I then read about ClockworkMod Recovery what does this do and should i use it?
Can someone please help me step by step as im really new to Android.
Sorry for so many questions but coming from years having an iphone to Android its like wow.
Cheers and thanks in advance.

Absolutely everything you need to know is in there.
I would only use methods that are intended for i9305.

Obagleyfreer i read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32235061&postcount=1 and unsure of part 13.
I want to root but just keep the standard rom that the phone came with.
Also if i update to 4.1.2 jellybean do i need to backup and root again?
You just need to flash the zip that's linked in part 13 to get root access.
You do this in CWM recovery.

Thanks Obagley.
Ok so if i root it then i upgrade to jellybean 4.1.2 which has not been released for my phone will i then have to root it again or do i just do it through cwm rcovery?

Hi
Seems like you ar pretty novice to this.
If you root you cant update to latest from Settings -》About -》 Update. Root makes it imposible that way.
Instead you have to flash the latest rom from www.sammobile.com using Odin (windows) and rootvit again.
Or you wait till some one kind pre roots the rom and makes it flashable through Clockworkmod (easiest way)
All the strange words you have to look up your self.

Ok i check www.sammobile.com and i dont see a version of 4.1.2 jellybean for my phone.
Will the international versions of 4.1.2 work on my phone?
Will they have bloatware or carrier logos?
When i flash a rom do i have to flash the modem as well?
Can i just flash rom over rom or should i clean the cache first?

Its not released yet for every country. I dont find it for sweden either.
And you can expect the same thing from updated rom as the rom you are on now.
The roms from sammobile is only for your country becaus it contains the proper modem and apn info for your country and carrier.
As I said before best way to get a rooted and neat rom is letting the experts in xda compile a version that is flashable through cwm.
Look in the description if modem is included.

Mate, if you go onto the android dev forum for this handset you can get a full write up on how to root, backup your efs/nv data, and then how to flash a new rom (eg pandoriam, ripper, rxtreme, wanam etc) if you can't find something then search the forum for the answer. It should all be thsre , good luck!!

But can u at least answer this for me is the GT 19305T the same as I9305? If so i already have toolkit but the first thing asks me for my build which could be 11,12,13,14. idk which one cant find the last letters in system info
Yes the "T" in the name is just the Telstra branding, if you follow ausdims rooting thread you will be fine

Thank you
The 'T' in the model number isn't branding. The phone is actually slightly different.
I have a friend who works for Telecom here in NZ and they also sell the I9305T.
He said it is optimised for use on Telecom's network (and obviously Telstra's too) it uses different modems and the antenna is different inside the phone.
They do however use the same ROMs and firmware. Anything intended for the I9305 will also work the same on the I9305T, except modems.

Hi all,
I have a question about rooting, i followed the ausdim rooting guide and installed triangleaway but system still shows modified. Anyway, Is there a ways not to use CWM recovery and use stock recovery? how can i flash stock recovery and keep root? and if i want to update to 4.1.2, can i do OTA without losing root? Thanking you in advance

Hello everyone!
New to this forum and new to Android phone. I have searched the whole forum and read through the dev-sections. Also did searches on multiple sites and through searchengines to find out what device model to use in the ToolKit...didn't find any confirming answer to my question.
As I have no posts from before, I couldn't write this in the dev-section, so I chose the thread that was closest to what I was looking for.
Question: What is the correct device model to choose in the ToolKit (I have version 7.0.0).
Information from my "about section"...
Phone: Samsung Galaxy SIII 4G
Model: GT-I9305
Android-version: 4.1.1
Build: JRO03C.I9305XXALK5
Operator: Telenor (Norway)
The options I lean towards since the only choice showing 4G, is number 21 (International 4G).
Problem is that it says it's GT-I9305N and not GT-I9305. It also says (Build JRO03C ALIA) and that does not match to my build either.
Then I look at the (International LTE), which says (GT-I9305)...which is ok.
And then number 14, which says (Build JRO03C ALK5), which is the same as mine...but it doesn't say 4G, which I have.
It might sound silly, but I really dont want to make the wrong choice here and end up having a phone that either "does not work at all"
or "does not work as it should". And before anyone says that I then should just leave it alone, my only intention at this point is to let
my anti-virus get root-access, so that the firewall works and the anti-theft works.
Hope anyone can be of help and thanks in advance.

Ok, so I rooted my device yesterday after reading through like 10 more threads...just took a chance, thought to myself "guts and glory" and went for it..went well =) I chose option 14 the build was the same as mine and it worked like a charm.
I am still left with a few quesitons though...might not be relevant to the thread anymore...
Does the rooting share the same build-match requirement as the flashing of a new operatingsystem?
How do I uninstall apps that were preinstalled on an operatorlocked phone?
Anders - Norway
I think you should look for app in app store, Root App delete or something like that. Then search for you operator apps/files and remove.

1. Bootloader is allready unlocked
2.For how to root look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2255190&highlight=how+to+root
3. Flash custom recovery, would advice this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxZf39vI0Lc. Download the .tar.md5 and flash with Odin in PDA.
4. Go to the CM thread and download the latest nightly and Gapps (Google apps) and place on the sdcard.
5. Go in recovery and wipe cache, dalvik cache, format system and data factory reset and then flash the CM rom and Gapps right after another without rebooting, reboot and you`re done.
hi
hello does it matter that it's a different usb cable, its of htc because the one i got with the phone doesnt seem recognise my phone on the pc

[Q] I'm confused

Hi guys, i've just bought a Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070 and I'm a little confused. My previous phone was a Galaxy Ace S5830i, I had that phone rooted (but it was too easy, just flash a .zip file) and with a custom rom.
So I have some questions:
1) For now I just want to root my new phone but the methods that I found here are not too clear to me. I first saw this method, but my firmware is not there. My phone came with I9070UBLI1 (2.3.6 GB). So i can't root my phone? my kernel isn't even in sammobile.com/firmwares
2) I want to make a backup just in case before rooting, so, what recovery should I use with this phone? cwm? this? or which one?
3) What is "binary counter"? In galaxy ace that wasn't present.
4) I saw that in samsungfirmwares site there are some 4.1.2 kernels, but they are for Rusia. I'm from Chile. So can I flash the russian kernel? will I loose my signal, 3G or something? Do you recommend upgrade to JB? with stock russian or a custom rom?
5) Do you recommend a custom kernel? which one? This looks nice
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope you can help me with those questions (numering your answers just like i did with my questions), I just want to enjoy a lot my new phone. :good:

I read the forums, but I'm still confused, for example, for rooting, in the thread that I linked in 1) there isn't the firmware that came with my phone, so I went to here, there isn't neither, then I read this post, but to do that I need dowload my phone's firmware, but the one that came with my phone there isn't in samsungfirmares web page, so I suppose I can flash anyone for Chile (my country), there are 2, but idk if they will work, so, if I'm going to take that risk I need to make a backup first, but idk what recovery I should use.
I have a mental bootloop

Custom firmware after cf auto root (SHV-E210S)

Hello everyone,
I am a bit of a newbie concerning android. I've just bought a galaxy s3 (SHV-E210S) in S. Korea.
I've found a great topic about how to root my phone but I still have a big question to which i didn't find any answer yet :
once I have rooted my phone using the CF-Auto root method (which is described as the easiest method to root), what do I need to do to install a custom firmware?
Thanks for your help and have a great day!

You read and follow the instructions for the custom firmware you choose .
It would pay you to read the faqs and guides before blundering into trouble .

Thanks for your answer.
What i meant is can I install a custom firmware directly after having rooted with the CF-Auto Root method or do I need to install a custom recovery too?

CF Auto-Root doesn't include custom recovery so you need to install it separately or use MobileOdin Pro instead.
CF Auto Root for Galaxy S3 SHV E210S
Hello All,
I need to root (just root) my Galaxy S3 SHV E210S which runs on KSJMF1 (Samsung Official Firmware)
Can i use the CF-Auto root from this link ?
download.chainfire.eu/273/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-c1skt-c1skt-shve210s.zip
Also, Does the same CF-Auto-Root can be used to root all firmwares of SHV E210S (Say, KSJLL6) ?
Pl clarify.
Thanks.

If you want the custom Rom as zip ( such as CM10.1 ) . you must have the custom recovery first .
i got a question about flashing my S3-E210S is running on stock rom and is locked. i downloaded the official Samsung E210S firmware latest update for Samsung and planning to flash my S3-E210S with it. my question is, can i use odin v3.04 in flashing the official stock firmware? Or i still have to root the phone?
Problems: S3-E210S
* Can't use camera "Security Policy restricts the use of Camera"
* Cannot Use Bluetooth also restricted
* cannot mount memory card also restricted.
Files i got:
1. SKT-E210SKSJMF1-20130604110212
2. Odin v3.04
My S3-E210 about info:
Model Number: SHV-E210S
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband Version: E210SKSMD2
Anyone can answer though...
You need to reed the basics first .
Root has nothing to do with stock rom flashing .
Standard stock rom is via Odin .

So, where can I get working recovery tool for my Galaxy S3 LTE E210S? It's running with kitkat 4.4.4. Do a favor for me!

[Q] Just got my S3 need help!

Hey guys has anyone got a definitive root working yet, i just got my Samsung Galaxy S3 4G i9305T on a VODAFONE (Australian) plan. I was wondering what guides i should use to root my device like for example theres some good ones like

Which looks like a good one but people have stated that the recovery rom is abit outdated but the guide is still good.
Can someone recommended a replace recovery rom
