[Root]ATT SGS3 Tested working! Reset flash counter! Simple - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

First off, let me say that I did not develop this stuff and all thanks should go to those that did. Special thanks to noobnl, mskip and TeamEpic for all their work.
So here we go.
General Disclaimer:
Use these tools and this guide at your own risk. Doing these things wrong/improperly/etc. has the ability to completely ruin your device and YOU assume all risk and responsibility if that happens.
Also note that Rooting WILL violate the manufacturers warranty on the device making it ineligible for warranty repair. If you have insurance on the device however they MAY still replace it for the cost of your deductible.
Root Method Starts Here.
1. Download and install the Samsung USB drivers from Samsung's website
2. Turn on Debugging on your Phone
* Open Settings
* Select "Developer options" in the System section
* Check the box for "USB Debugging"
3. Plug you phone up to your computer using the USB cable and allow the drivers to install.
4. Download CMW_SuperUser_v3.07.zip from the bottom of this post
* I recommend making yourself a nice little GS3 folder in your downloads folder for all this stuff so it's easy to find
* DO NOT UNZIP!!
5. Copy CMW_SuperUser_v3.07.zip on to the Root of your GS3s INTERNAL storage (if you put it into a folder, you may have a hard time finding it later, but that's on you).
* DO NOT UNZIP!!
6. Unplug you phone
7. Power off your phone
^^ once u have now odin time......
1. Download Odin3-v3.04 from the bottom of this post
2. Extract Odin3-v3.04 into it's own folder somewhere where you can easily find it.
3. Download fixboot.tar from the bottom of this post to somewhere you can easily find it.
4. Reboot your phone into download mode
* Hold down Volume Down, Home and then power until Warning!! message is displayed
* Press Volume Up to continue.
5. Your phone should now be in download mode and displaying a green Android and say Downloading. If it is not, power off your phone by holding down the power button and then try to get into Download mode again. Do NOT progress until you have done so.
6. Go into the folder you extracted Odin3 into and run Odin3 v3.04.exe
7. Connect your phone to your computer via USB
8. In Odin, the COM box all the way to the left should turn blue and it should say Added!! in the Message area.
** Click on PDA and in the Open window that pops up navigate to and open the Tar With CWM from below file you downloaded earlier
** Verify that Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked
** Click Start. Once the process is completed you device should automatically reboot and there will be a green PASS! box in the upper left of the window. You can then close Odin.
** Power off your device and boot into Recovery mode
* To boot into Recovery mode: Hold down Volume Up, Home and then the Power button until you are in Recovery (it should say CWM-based Recovery at the top of the screen)
**. Install CMW_SuperUser_v3.07.zip that you copied onto your internal memory
* Navigating ClockWorkMod Recovery: Use the Volume Up and Down arrow keys to change the highlighted option and the home key to select an option. The Back softkey works, but will not be lit and will take you back one screen.
Installing a zip:
* Select "Install zip from sdcard" (Yes, I know it's on the internal storage.)
* Select "Choose zip from sdcard"
* Select the zip you want to install; in this case CWM_SuperUser_v3.0.7.zip
* Select "Yes" to begin installing
**. Once the process has completed use the Back arrow to get back to the main recovery screen (remember, it works, but it's not lit) and select "reboot system now." Once your device boots up you should now be 'Rooted,' but there's still a few more things to be done
Reset counter: triangle away from playstore and reset the counter.
15. Install BusyBox. There are actually several ways to do this, but the BusyBox app in the Google Play Market is quick and easy. Install it, grant it SuperUser permissions and it'll walk you through the rest and advise you when to update.
16. Update your Binaries.
* Open the Superuser app
* Get into settings (the wrench icon in the upper right of the screen)
* Select Su binary under the General section towards the bottom of the list
* Select Update
**.Your device is now rooted and all set.
** optional: update cwm using rom manager or use img from clockworkmods website. Flash through adb.

Yay. I'll give this a go (via Heimdall in Linux) as soon as I get my phone. In the meantime... I'll let you other guinea pigs below this post test it out.
Ohhh how I love root. Let me count theee ways: ClockWorkMod recovery (and nandroid backups), ROMs, TitaniumBackup, AdAway (/system/etc/hosts), adb over wireless, free wifi tethering, permanent debloating, kernel overclocking, CIFS (windoze) network shares, poking around /data/data in a root adb shell, yadda yadda...

Nice. I got my gs3 today
I'm going to wait a week before I do any rooting. Just to feel the phone out

The T-Mobile and Sprint root guides root by installing a new recovery.img and this one installs a boot.img.....
No worries here as phone works correctly although the flash counter changed to custom and indicates the 3 times I flashed with ODIN!

Remember, this time its UP VOLUME home and power

I would advise you to find the stock firmware for your device, put your device in download mode and flash stock via odin. Then factory reset so you are back to default Samsung and see if the Play Store works and if it does use the toolkit by mskip to root, install busybox and CWM.
try googling around?

[Q] Need some help on flashing rom.

O.k my wife got an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 when they first came out I bought it for her and it has this rom build on it l747UCALG1 and mine which I just bought about three days ago have this build on it l747UCALH9. Her build I was able to root if need be but my phone I can't and I am already on 2 count of the custom binary and I can't reset it since some how I can't root the phone the developers are seeing all of this stuff that we are doing to the phones and I believe they are trying to stop us. But anyway can some one tell me since I have a copy of her stock Firmware how can I just flash my phone or what have you with her stock firmware which is l747UCALG1 so I can root my phone. Also if you don't mind please leave me a clear step-by-step way to do it and if it works without doing any damage at all to my phone, and if I want to later go back to the stock that is on my phone now I can but I don't think I will unless I have to send or take it in ever for warranty repair or just sale it. If this works right leave me your e-mail or if you have a paypal account give me that address or what have you and I will send you a donation.. (Thanks)

How to Revert to Old Firmware & Root Newest Release -
Hello and welcome to XDA.
I understand your concern to root your device especially with it being on the latest firmware, but I will do my best in order to explain every step to you in the utmost detail. I am currently on I747UCLH9 with a Custom ROM. Meaning I kept the Modem & Bootloader and kicked the Kernel and Firmware. Before I begin, I would like to ask you to thank to all the Developers / Posters who made & put this content together as this would not be possible without them. I will link all of their original posts at the end of this. Be sure to give credit to every one of them and please make sure to give thanks to them. I take absolutely NO CREDIT for any of these links/steps whatsoever. I simply researched and compiled them in order to help you. With that being said, let us begin.
Before anything you must remember this. After you are finished downloading whatever items you need, you MUST (and I cannot stress this enough) FACTORY RESET YOUR DEVICE. Reason being is because a lot of other people have tried this same process of downgrading without wiping and ended up getting startup boot errors. Be sure to NOT sign into your Google account. This is just a warning, follow the steps below to know when you should begin this process.
All files you download should be saved on your desktop. Personally I prefer to make a separate folder for these kind of delicate things. Keeps it organized so you don't forget where you are.
Make sure your phone IS NOT plugged in to your computer as of right now & you have NO external SD card.
Now;
Let's begin.
Before you start be sure you have the Samsung USB drivers installed. Which you can get from Samsung's website or here.
Samsung USB Drivers
Also be sure that you have WinRAR installed as well which you can get right here.
WinRAR
To be on the VERY SAFE side you must download ADB (Android SDK). What you must do is when it asks you for where you would like to install it, you MUST ONLY CLICK "Local Disk C:" . AND THATS IT. The best thing is to keep it here so when you have to execute a command line, it will be very simple. You will have a folder called "android" here. THAT IS YOUR ADB FOLDER. You will understand what I mean shortly. *Note* this is for CWM-T (ClockworkMod Touch).
Android SDK
1. Download the stock rooted LG1 Firmware. I747UCLG1 Stock + Root Only.
2. Right-Click the LG1 Firmware you just downloaded and extract it. It is currently root69.stock_ATT_I747UCALG1.7z ; the extraction process will turn it into the correct .tar file (Flashable file type with Odin)
3. Now that you have the Stock ROM, you need..well ODIN! Here's the link. Odin 3.07.
4. Since it is in .zip format you need to extract this as well. You will end up with 4 files. Right-Click on the Odin3 v3.07.exe and run it as administrator. Now you are at the Odin screen with nothing there -_-".
5. Factory reset your phone. Just let it boot up but DO NOT sign into your Google account, just click through skip everything head straight to your Settings, then Developer Options & make sure USB Debugging is enabled/checked. Back out of your settings completely and you are at the home screen.
6. Now, just hit the power button and turn your device off. After it is completely turned off hold the Volume Down + Home button. While holding these 2. Press and hold the Power button. You should now be holding all three buttons at the same time waiting for a green lettered screen to come on (Download Mode). Use the phone keys to select the option to continue. Your phone will now say Downloading, do not turn off device. (Or along those lines).
7. After selecting the option that sends your phone to the screen with the text "Downloading, Do not turn off device." You should be holding your phone in hand with USB plugged into your computer but your device is not connected. Odin is open on your computer screen with nothing still. From here just plug your phone in and you will see a pop-up in the first box of many under the Odin logo which says "COM: #".(#: Being a select number of your device. This is of no importance, as long as you see this pop up.) Once you see this your phone will be ready to be flashed back. Just click the PDA button and browse to the root69.stock_ATT_I747UCALG1.tar file. (Be sure you click the .tar and not the .zip.)
8. Check to make sure no other boxes should be checked except for Auto-Reboot.
9. Press Start and wait for the process to finish.
10. Everything should go through fine and your phone will start back up and you will be on LG1. You are now on stock firmware BUT rooted. Unplug your phone, Skip past everything once again and make sure USB Debugging is enabled. Keep your phone unplugged & don't forget to close ODIN.
Now before you do anything. You need a Custom Recovery AKA CWM. Well in this case we will be installing the latest touch version.
11. Download the latest ClockworkMod Touch from here. This link is saved in a way specifically from their website. You can either go to www.clockworkmod.com and browse the ROM Manager tab for the 6.0.1.4 Recovery. OR you can just right click the link provided right here and press "Save As..." this file will come up and asked to be saved as recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.4-d2att.img. RENAME IT AS "recovery.img" without the quotes & save it.
ClockworkMod Touch 6.0.1.4
12. Now that you have this file. Plug in your phone to your computer and in the root folder of your phone storage and copy the recovery.img file to it; which is the first folder that pops up when you press open when you plug your phone in. (Remember no SD CARDS!)
13. Now, click the Start button on your taskbar and in the search bar type cmd. Now you will see cmd.exe; press enter and you will see the Command Prompt open. If you saved the Android SDK the way I told you to, you can copy and paste the line below. If you saved it somewhere else you can change the folder simply by browsing to the android folder. Make sure you click on the "platform-tools" folder. NOT the "platform" folder. Also whichever directory it is you must add a "\" at the end so it will find the location correctly.
cd C:\android\platform-tools\
14. Now you are in the directory time to run ADB Shell and flash that recovery! Copy and paste or type the following; I recommend you copy and paste the last line as it gets tricky. After the SU command your phone will be detected.
First you type adb shell
following that su
and finally dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
As you can see in the last command it is named recovery.img there are no special characters or numbers or symbols to mess with the flashing. After you run this command you will an output similar to the following.
14004+0 records in
14004+0 records out
7170048 bytes transferred in 1.430 secs (5014019 bytes/sec)
Finish up this step with the following command
reboot recovery
15. Your device will now restart and head straight into recovery. Congrats you now have LG1 Stock + Root with CWM-T. Unplug the USB and press "Reboot System".
TO UPGRADE BACK TO LH9 WITH ROOT AND CWM-T
Before I begin.
You must remember that this step REQUIRES you download 4 files to go on the root of your phone memory. Your phone should now be on the home screen. Plug it in and open your phone memory. With that being said you need the following files. The Rom, Modem, Bootloader, and Kernel. You will be flashing them in this following order as well.
16. Download the following pieces and save them to the root of your phone's memory. Be sure to remember which file has what name so when you enter the recovery you aren't lost as to which to flash first.
I747UCLH9 ROM Download
I747UCLH9 Modem Download
I747UCLH9 Bootloader Download
I747UCLH9 Kernel Download
17. After everything has finished transferring, remove the phone from the computer and turn your phone. Remember how you got into download mode? Well instead of holding Volume Down + Home, you hold Volume Up + Home. While holding these two press and hold your power button until you see it says Samsung Galaxy S III. If you look at the top left hand of the screen while it's JUST turning on. You will see some blue text flash. When you see that you know your entering the recovery and can release the buttons.
18. You are back at the recovery. You must now do the following. Touch the options as I list them. Follow these steps precisely.
- Wipe Data/Factory Reset
- Yes -- Delete all user data
- Wipe Cache
- Yes - Wipe Cache
- Advanced
- Wipe Dalvik Cache
+++++Go Back+++++
- Install Zip from SD Card
- Choose zip from SD Card
Now choose them in the following order, ROM, Modem, Bootloader, and finally Kernel.
WAIIIITTTTTTTT! After you are finished flashing the Kernel you MUST do the following. Click options as I state them.
- Wipe Cache
- Yes - Wipe Cache
- Advanced
- Wipe Dalvik Cache
- Advanced
- Fix Permissions
+++++Go Back+++++
Reboot System
19. Wait for your phone to reboot and NOW you can sign into your Google account. Go past everything go into your App drawer first and check for Superuser/SuperSU once you see that, go into your settings and check your ROM, Modem, Bootloader, Kernel. Yes. They are bone stock with root. Congrats you achieved maximum upgrade with root.
Now I would like to give my shout-outs; Thanks; and share the following posts that helped me compile this. I couldn't have done it without you guys.

I do not see the 4 download links for the ROM, Modem, Bootloader and Kernel. Can you post them.
I will fix the links but if you simply look at the people / threads I have given credit to at the bottom of my guide you will see drothenberger's thread. He has the original links there. Mind you, you MUST scroll down to the part where it says "PIECES:" and download following his links. Don't worry I will re-post them accordingly.

If you want to unroot for some reason :
From stock rom and root by Chainfire method all you need to do : Triangle Away app ,SuperSU / setting/ full unroot. Reboot into Recovery / Factory reset.
From custom rom : reflash stock image via Odin .reroot by CF auto root,reset counter with Triangle Away App,SuperSU/Setting/Full unroot . Recovery / Factory reset.

Common question about reseting counter
I have reset counter but system status still 'custom'
You should have stock recovery (Opton 2)
If you already have stock recovery(CF Auto root) then reset counter first
then wipe cache + wipe data(factory reset) + re wipe cache
You should now have system status 'official'
I have rest counter but after reboot again it goes to 1
This happen if you have rooted with CUSTOM RECOVERY(Opton 1)
This is neither error of recovery nor triangle away. This happens due to new bootloader which have auto checksum for recovery, when you reboot to custom recovery count will raise.
To prevent this you need to have play version of Triangle away, and you should check (enable) 'Auto reset at boot'. Again this feature depends on kernel/recovery is supported or no

Weird, I guess the development forums for 150 other phones must be wrong then. Their moderators must be slacking.
p.s.-no root, no development.
p.s.s-you must be a toolkit user

Yeah, the reason I put my thread in origin dev because i seen every forum do the same ,all I do is try to help but I guest moderator want to keep dev thread at NEVER so let it be. Toolkit is good but complicated if you choose wrong option then will be problem thats why I come up with this solution which easy to root and with out any issue .

Yes, you are right! It belongs in the general section and not stickied in the dev section (like every other phone) so it can get lost on page 8 and more people **** up their phone.
Seriously. Go in the dev section of 20 different phones and tell me what percentage have a root method stickied right at the top.
I also was able to root my phone with this method.
Back to Stock?
Hi,
Are we able to bring it back to stock just in case?
Thanks

You can find how to root here. FULL CREDITS GO TO Zionator as he wrote up the instructions.
Easy Guide to Root :
1. Go to Rooting Guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...6#post63637426
Download only the P605 modded boot IMG and then come back here. Move the tar to tablet. "In my opinion that guide is very confusing" This is much more simple...
2. Go to TWRP (download version 2.8.7.0) - https://dl.twrp.me/lt03wifiue/
Download the img.tar This file you keep on pc to flash via Odin.
3. Go to SuperSU v2.52 Beta - https://download.chainfire.eu/743/Su...erSU-v2.52.zip
Download the zip. Move the zip to tablet.
4. Reboot the tablet into download mode and open Odin on the PC then connect the tablet to PC. In Odin click AP tab and locate the TWRP and uncheck Auto-Reboot then hit start. When done hold the power button + vol up button "the vol button furthest from power button" + home button til you see red writing on top right hand corner. This can take a while so don't panic just wait.
5. When finished booting into TWRP pull Spen and click Install then find modded boot img "remember to switch between IMG & ZIP mode in the lower left hand corner" Now flash the boot img. Do not reboot just go back and switch back to ZIP mode and flash SuperSU when done reboot.
6. Wait for the boot to finish. You are now rooted.
I hope this makes it easy for you!!!
thank you for the guide buhohitr.
worked perfectly for me

[Guide][Root] How To Root Marshmallow (SM-G920P) *Updated*

Hey guys, I decided to update the thread in hopes of clearing confusion.
Currently I've found two methods of rooting that seem to help people.
Method 1 - E.K IT Services: ekitservices.com currently run by senior member @djerick3 *Not a sponsorship*
Method 2 - CF-Auto Root: Very simple and easy to use, all you need a:
Windows PC (7 - 10)
USB Cable
Step 1 - Download CF-Auto Root for the SM-G920P.
Step 2 - Using either adb (adb reboot download) or hardware keys (turn the device off and hold in Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button once prompted, press Volume Up)
Step 3 - Plug the device into the PC and open the included Odin in the CF-Auto zip
Step 4 - Click the "AP" button and choose the included md5 file
Step 5 - Make sure to check the "Option(s)" tab and make sure only "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" are checked. Then switch back to the main tab and press start.
Step 6 - Wait as CF-Auto Root will begin to boot and root, note that the process can take while. Upon rebooting you should have the SuperSU app (Note. If its not there, you can find it HERE)
Step 6 - Enjoy
< ----- Optional - TWRP Install ------ >
As of right now, current TWRP releases are not working on marshmallow. Lucky though @ram9200 created a custom version of the tool that should work
Step 1 - Download the TWRP Tar file
Step 2 - Boot back into Odin mode and flash via Odin on your PC (use the "AP" tab once more)
Hope this helps:good: as always though, of you need help feel free to to send me a PM

Hey guys, after all the confusion on rooting 6.0.1, I decided to throw together a guide real quick (hope this helps)
To do this, you will need:
TWRP (This is a special version only for the Sprint SM-G920P and is meant to be flashed with Odin)
SuperSU 2.68
Odin
Steps)
1) Boot your device into download/odin mode (adb reboot download) or (while the device is off hold home+power+volume down then you will be taken to a light blueish screen saying "Warning", just press volume up)
2) Once your device is in download/odin mode, plug it into your windows PC and open Odin then in odin, click the "AP" button then find where you downloaded the TWRP .tar and press start
3) After that, your device should reboot into the system, if present use "adb reboot recovery" if you don't have adb, turn the device off and hold home+power+volume up and your should get some red text in the upper left hand corner then you should be brought to TWRP where you can flash SuperSU (to get SuperSU onto your device, you can use TWRP's built in MTP function or use adb, I recommend using adb but TWRP's MTP is also good (to enable MTP, click on the "mount" button then make sure to tap the "Cache","Data" and "System" buttons, if your PC does not detect the device, tap "Disable MTP" then tap "Enable MTP". Then your device should be detected where you can then move SuperSU to your device and flash it,

Help
Same issue here. when recovery is booted. blue update screen then original recovery. OEM is on
---------- Post added at 05:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 AM ----------
im getting the blue updateing as well. then goes to original recovery/ OEM is on
unchecked the auto reboot and followed directions and am now rooted. Thanks!
This worked for me! Thank you so much!
A few modifications to the overall guide:
a. Turn on OEM unlock (I forgot to do this first)
2. Turn off auto-boot in ODIN (I needed to do this, as TWRP would not load the first time)
d. Move SuperSU zip folder to phone (same as other methods)
Now just need a good custom ROM...
I unchecked auto-boot in Odin and turned on OEM unlock, but it isn't working. I boot into download mode and apply the TWRP, but it is just stuck in download mode with the white bar at like 99% complete. It doesn't hit 100%. I forced my phone off and then booted into recovery right after and now my recovery mode is a white screen. Not really sure what to do.
