It's worth a shot, if you RUU and it still doesn't work I'd imagine it' fried.

Yeah, that's what I would do. Plus if it doesn't fix it, it's ready to send in. Just make sure you use unrevoked's s-on tool first (before the RUU) so you can send it back.
Yes I have that downloaded thank u for the advice

So confused

Hey idk what's happening to my Evo but since I rooted I been having issues with the camera isn't working , I tried like 8 Roms already including cyagonem, mikfroyo... now I'm running Vaelpak 3.2 remastered and I love it but camera still doesn't work, just once and after that blank again,pleasea any suggestions?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
What hardware version are you? Try looking in settings under hardware information (ex 0004). Are you flashing kernels with theses roms?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Is you camera not working? Or getting the messed up colors? if you've got the purpley/green look, your camera is broken.
It's 0003 and no man I just flash the Roms, but in this one I flashed like 3 kernels, Netarchy 4.3.1,4.3.2 and still nothing wat do u suggest?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well netarchys kernels are only for sense. If you're running a sense rom right now try this stock kernel. Your camera is guaranteed to work if it doesn't then you have some problems. This is the stock #15 HTC kernel.

Have you tried flashing the stock sprint rooted rom and clearing/wiping EVERYTHING in recovery(before you flash). I would suggest you start completely from scratch man. Did you update anything while on sense roms(firmware, htc updates etc)?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Double post. Oops
No man I didn't update anything,just flashed Roms and that's it, and I think I need to go back to stock to see if it work, where can I download that Rom?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had a 0003 and had the same problem. Never did find a fix. Had to do an insurance claim. Now I have a 0004 with cm7 stable. I have flashed all the nightlies pretty much from 1 with no problem. Have not flashed a custom kernal to this phone though cause it scares me to have the same thing happen. If you find a fix please post so I can fix my 0003 and maybe sell it.

Here's the stock rooted rom.

You can grab the "deodexed" or "odexed" version to test it. If this doesn't work I have one more thing we can do report back and let me know the outcome. The first mediafire link will work just fine. Make sure you wipe first before the flash.

Lol ill be here dude. The only difference between "deodexed" and "odexed" is deodexed is for theming. They're both pretty much the same so if one doesn't work then other will have same results. If that rom doesn't work then we move to the last procedure. "Operation this is bullsh*t"

have you tried restoring your oldest nandroid, in case you did one right after root, also have you tried downloading any free camera app from the market,and see if that makes your camera work

Is there any way to root galaxy s 3 for t mobile running 4.1.1 without a computer?

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
As of right now, the only way to get root is with the use of the computer as of yet.
Being that seems to work pretty well I doubt there will be development to a root method without a computer.
Hmm, thanks for your feedback

I put the developer kit on my phone and then you can do it from someone elses computer...
What about mobile Odin pro? Then use that to flash the recovery of your choice. The reboot to recovery and install the superuser script?

Mobile odin requires root. So it can't be used to gain root.
Chainfire release a rooting method. I haven't tried it but have heard it works well. You still need Odin on a pc for any root procedure that I'm aware of.

Rooting is yes, only available via computer.

Just realized I didn't mention chsinfires method is called CF-auto root I believe. Its in original development.
Or you can also use the root66 method. Link to the fw thread in my sig.

Root

Quick question here can you root the s3 on 4.1.1 without losing anything? Because from what ive seen you have to flash a stock ROM with root injected in it. I put on CWMR and flashed superuser but I do not have root.

What about the exynos abuse root method? What build is the phone currently on? It did get patched but I don't remember what build.

Well I was able to using a app. Im cursed with having a broke volume down button, so that was my only choice since i couldnt get to download mode without rooting and using a widget to reboot to download mode.
I have to dig around for the app but I know I saved it just in case...
Actrully found it I used a app called framaroot.

Interesting. It's worth a shot OP. Worst case, it fails and you uninstall. If it is successful, you can install mobile odin, then get the latest gb27 tar, and money. While you're at it, you will have to flash a cwm custom jb kernel, since you're on ics, and, MO won't flash modems, you'll need a jb modem to use data on gb27. Download the zip though of the modem . Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Hopefully it works for you. I don't see why it wouldn't. Might be more complicated but it worked for me. but of course YMMV. Just follow what jdsingle76 said you you'll be good to go.
