Hey Brandon, I just wanted to thank you so much for making my life easier!!! I watch all of your videos and I love them all! They helps me soooooo much. I learn a lot from them! Thanks!
Very good video. Where did you go to download the Omega Roms? That part of the video is slightly unclear. I just ordered my S3 and I will root when I get it later in the week!
i have a problem, i tried rooting my phone as you did here and i saw it was taking too long and turned it on, thus rooting failed. now phone screen is black, no led lights on. it is connected to my computer, and i can hear it when it comes on or off, but no screen activity. what do i do?
I did the root but only got to the part to odin and it went blue meaning the "reset" thing appeared. NOW the phone will not turn on. It shows the battery image and it says dead but it was fully charged before I started. The phone refuses to get past the odin mode thing. My count is at like 12. Help me.. I don't know what to do.
I encountered a problem with mine, everything was good until I saw reset on odin, then the phone shut off and never turned on again, while odin seemed finished. For now, the phone will breifly turn on for 3 seconds to display the samsung logo then shut off. YES, I have bricked my phone... any ideas on remedies?
In all seriousness is the Galaxy S3 American version in some way different in the rooting process? I only ask because of him mentioning that they said somewhere not to do it with the Snapdragon. I'd appreciate non-sarcastic help. And if it's even worth getting a SG3 ATM or if I should wait until the Nexus 2 comes out.
does this method works on all samsung for ex. Verizon, T-mobile & international S3. cause they have the thread for each, but still the same as the one provided on here.
Can you please tell me how to root my Samsung galaxy s3 with no computer because my computer is being repaired. I have tried using some of the other videos on RUclips but none of them seem to be working . Please help me Pocketnow
I need help please. My reset after doing the odin setup and it said "reset." I had to unplug the phone and turn it back on because it turned off but for some reason odin did not reboot it. Now everytime I try to turn it on it goes to the SAMSUNG screen for 2 seconds and shuts off. The only thing I can access is download mode. The settings in download mode say: ODIN MODE PRODUCT NAME: SCH-R5830U CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (4 counts) CURRENT BINARY: Custom SYSTEM STATUS: Official PLEASE HELP!!!
I am running a AT&T Samsung sgh-i747 SIII and I am dying to remove this bloatware and root this phone but I am very nervous that I might brick this phone, I just paid 599$ cash for it and would die if I lost it. What can I do here? I have the phone completely tweaked, all bloatware is disabled but still exists on the phone. Can anyone help me? What is the real risk here?
I like some of the features that TouchWiz has on the GS3! I use Nova launcher and do not sacrifice the features that i like; fir example, swipe for screenshot
ok final answer you likely did what i did and used the international version. Get the one the says qcom kit. it will ask you to select your phone by make and carrier. I got my phone to work now. *happy dance happy dance*
I rooted my s3 in 2 minutes after all the downloads were finished, if it takes you 15 minutes you are slow, and nobody needs that tool kit, it´s esier if you follow zedomax´s instructions....I am High on Android....
i still cant believe how bad the S3's RAM management is. Even after a fresh boot it has only about 200mb RAM free. Most unbelievably, it even kicks the music player out of RAM at times, even my Xperia Play wasn't that shit. Cant wait for CM9 on it though, because the hardware is great, just a shame Samsung ruined ICS.
Wait for nexus 2, imho it's better. Also yes, it's different... You can't root the American version with the internation version's rooting method, look it up. Also I'm on a HTC one X so I don't know much about samsung, but I can assure you that the nexus 2 will be a lot better than the s3 or note 2 (since that fucker doesn't even fit your pockets)
well thats no big deal, unless they wont upgrade our devices to jelly bean! X( I used to have an iphone, and jailbreak is a 100% necessity on that shit.
Fuck this shit. JellyBean is coming out in a few months. I can wait. lol I don't want to fuck up my phone because I always manage to screw things like this up. And I have a Mac too.

Do you suggest this over using Odin + avoid tripping the flash counter? What's easier?
what does rooting mean? is it like the jailbreak for the iphone? just left apple for the S3 so im new to all this.
Will there not be any updates for the SGS3 in the future when it comes to software issues?
Its posible to root the LTE Model also?
Can you post a video on how to unroot and get back to stock for warranty please.

@pocketnowvideo Will rooting the device remove the special features such as S voice, smartstay, etc?
If I root my gs3 ics and then update to jelly bean when it comes out, will it take off the root ?
does this method works on all samsung for ex. Verizon, T-mobile & international S3. cause they have the thread for each, but still the same as the one provided on here.

I got it to reboot after starting in download mode. ie holding home button, down volume and power. i think i almost have it working
must the phone be in mass storage when connected?
can u instal apps on sd card if u are rooted ? psl anser me
And yet this is why I love my Galaxy Nexus, sure it's not powerful as GS3 but it has the stock rom & that what matters.
do you need your bootloader unlocked for odin to work?
what are the chances of getting your fone bricked just during the root process?
say if you get it on contract can you still root it?
Just got this phone, Can you get it in litening rom?
it is the best ever rom!
worked so well with my galaxy s2
I remember the days that pocketnow how show use a lot of costume ROMS that were not just what everyone uses
@ pocketnowvideo

This is for international phones only I believe. The carrier locked ones have their own procedures I believe.
Does z4root work on android 4.1.1 on galaxy s3 right now the version of z4root is 1.3.0
Does this method increase the binary count ?

Yes, rooting is like jailbreaking your iphone/ipod.
ok final answer you likely did what i did and used the international version. Get the one the says qcom kit. it will ask you to select your phone by make and carrier. I got my phone to work now. *happy dance happy dance*

how to root galaxy note???
can't wait for the stock ICS ROM
I rooted my s3 in 2 minutes after all the downloads were finished, if it takes you 15 minutes you are slow, and nobody needs that tool kit, it´s esier if you follow zedomax´s instructions....I am High on Android....
no , bootcamp to winows to use windows.
i dont understand how to downloD...
take off your rotation option i settings
is this safe?? i dont want my phone to be bricked :))
DAMN i have an iphone 4 and i jailbroke it and it was so easy but know im with a gallaxy s3 and im just wowd it looks very complex
No, not save. if you'd root it with the toolkit on your snapdragon sgs3 your phone will explode.
i still cant believe how bad the S3's RAM management is. Even after a fresh boot it has only about 200mb RAM free. Most unbelievably, it even kicks the music player out of RAM at times, even my Xperia Play wasn't that shit. Cant wait for CM9 on it though, because the hardware is great, just a shame Samsung ruined ICS.
zedomax @ did that rom review, one of the best rom of s3
windows*
Yeah, "just own an iPhone" that has less power, features, smaller screen, and charge for every decent app. No thanks, I'll stick with my superior S3.
Lmao Freeze at 3:15 and look at Camera Uploads Folder ;)
Wait for nexus 2, imho it's better. Also yes, it's different... You can't root the American version with the internation version's rooting method, look it up. Also I'm on a HTC one X so I don't know much about samsung, but I can assure you that the nexus 2 will be a lot better than the s3 or note 2 (since that fucker doesn't even fit your pockets)
Haha, why would you have a Mac?
No, that's a SIM lock.
that app have a virus.
if i see you around
Safe*
well thats no big deal, unless they wont upgrade our devices to jelly bean! X(
I used to have an iphone, and jailbreak is a 100% necessity on that shit.
