I recently upgraded to 2.3.5 and would like to root my phone to remove crap apps. Is there a simple, one click method to make this happen?
Thanks in advance

Nope. One clicks don't work on 2.3.5. You need to use Odin to install CWM 5.027, then pull the battery before it boots, power up into CWM first then flash a custom GB ROM.

Why not just have him install the gb3.tar kernel instead of "pull the battery before it boots" much easy and less fearfull.

Does that have clockwork in it too? Usually I say uncheck reboot in Odin but then you still gotta pull the battery and pop it back in then boot to CWM. Didn't mean to be scary..lol!

No but it qbkings tutorial he says to flash the kernel first.... then flash Cwm just saying it would be less chance of error. Something in the stock kernel has a script that searches for cwm and causes it to delet after the first boot anyways.....

Exactly! And no worries about it overwriting recovery as long as you flash a custom gb rom (there is a mostly stock one if trying to stay stock) as the kernel will be included with the rom... don't let biggorn scare you... its not scary to pull the battery after odin ;-)

The Odin kernel trick worked like a charm. Thanks so much for the help, my Epic is now rooted and has superuser access. The primary intent of this project was to remove all of the crap-ware and now that that is accomplished I have to ask...now what? What other things should I look at to make it faster and better?
Thanks again.

Flashing a custom rom.... and a custom kernel.
Suggestions: legendary 2.2 and the samurai or shadow kernel
MarcusantRom revival v2..... just go through the android development forums to see which rom you'd like to use. Just be careful what your trying to download thought. If your Rom is BML or MTD then you have to download that type of kernel.

U don't even have to pull out the battery is instantly boots up into cwm that's what happened to me when I got my replacement that was already on ei22 I just connected to odin and flashed the latest cwm and had a rom already on my sd card so I just flashed the rom when it opened cwm for me
Its very easy and no worries and if it doesn't open cwm its not like your phone will brick or anything u just need to try again. To flash a kernel would be easy too

Some phones didn't boot into clockwork. They hung at the black screen. Remember every phone is different so those of us post answers that try to cover every possibility. Great for you that yours booted into CWM...go play the lottery now...LOL.

qbking77 has a 2 part video on it that is very step by step. just follow it and you will be fine. from what i remember just 1 extra fie to odin and you need a file on your sdcard. it was pretty gravy. have fun and mistakes are a short odin back to the beginning
edit.
haha forgot there was a second page..... use remember you can go from bml to bml, or bml to mtd, mtd to mtd type roms. YOU CAN NOT JUST FLASH FROM MTD TO BML!!! you must odin back to ec05 and make sure repartition is checked and use the victory pit. happy playing
just remember though... after reading the information on these forums, and you are still unsure or whatever... ask questions, ask questions , ask questions...
Well everything is running great but now Sprint is trying to upgrade my firmware to EL30. Will this do away with my new found rooting and can it be re-rooted if it does?

It will fail to update since your rooted you have to go completely stock to upgrade and once upgraded its the same root process with the exception of using a different kernel.

So somehow someway my phone is on the "Galaxy S 2 Yellow triangle with exclamation mark" screen and wont boot up.
I simply wiped factory reset, and dalvik ( coming from Caulks Rom ) and then flashed Blazer Rom 3.7 and it never went past that screen.
My question is can i simply re root on my mac and would my phone go back to stock rooted OS? Or do I have to restore it through Odin?
Note I did backup my previous rom!
Sorry forgot to mention I cant access recovery either! I hold down volume up and power and nothing just stays on the yellow triangle screen...

Get calks format all ...flash it and then go to advanced and wipe system and then flash new ROM .... If it still doesn't work check md5 on the ROM that it's a good download if it's not redownload and flash ....you can always restore your back up

I would definitely recommend going this route. Follow the instructions in this thread it will help you to install ACS (CWM) Recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268037
for future reference recovery is volume Up + power. not down.
From the sounds of it id say you may need to flash more than the kernal I was in a similar situation where my recovery wouldnt work and I couldnt boot into the rom and I had to flash back to stock through Odin to get it working again. Then after that I re rooted and flashed a rom.

Im not sure, when it happened to me there wasnt a way. Its really simple though I mean when I did it I was back up and running, rerooted, and running a rom in about 10 minutes if that.
This is the file you would need to flash the stock tar file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409634 this is what I used then after I just re rooted.

Yes but instead of ODIN you'll use Heimdall. There's a guide in the link below.

I've been in this situation before, you have a bad flash.... you have to odin back to stock redownlaod the rom you installed and try again... the yellow triangle will probably still be there but the phone will boot. i bought a jig to get rid of my yellow triangle (It really bothered me and the jig was like a buck)

Yes that guide is for rooting but you can flash ROM's with Heimdall too. Just do a Google search for it and you'll see. Either that or find yourself a windows box and ODIN a rooted ROM with clockwork recovery and then restore your backup.

Unzip and put file into PDA in ODIN and flash away! If you need ODIN, it is attached below.
*WARNING* DO NOT CHECK RE-PARTITION OR ANYTHING ELSE. ONLY AUTO-REBOOT AND F. RESET TIMER SHOULD BE CHECKED.
If you need more information about this file and what it is/what to do with it, read the stickies at the top of this forum to learn more about ODIN and what it is used for. This file is provided mostly for people who like me who prefer to odin a stock rom and tweak it themselves. It will also prove INVALUABLE from here on out for when you need to unroot your phone (send into t-mobile/samsung, just want it un-rooted).
IF YOU WANT ROOT:
I also attached the latest superuser and CWM recovery for those who want to root.
Put the recovery.tar in the pda slot and flash for CWM recovery.
Then install the attached superuser inside CWM recovery to have full root!
FYI: It's a known issue that superuser usually does not "stick" on the first try. This is with ANY ROM for our phones. Just keep flashing it (usually 2 to 3 times)until it says installation complete.
THIS WILL NOT AFFECT YOUR DOWNLOAD/FLASH COUNTER (+)

factory fresh one?
Wow you guys...just wow...
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Will be factory fresh. Will be like any other stock rom, not rooted. Root it via odin like we have always done for all of our roms. I think it's best to just leave completely intact so we always have an option to get our phones back to 100% factory. The CW flashable zips and rooted custom roms are on their way.

Stock Samsung recovery pulled straight from stock firmware and packaged as a Odin flashable tar file. I decided to do this for those who may want or need to flash the stock recovery. I have tested this and worked fine on my phone. I am not sure if it will work with any other carrier besides AT&T so if you try it do so at your own risk and if it works report it and I will add any other confirmed carriers that it works for. I am not responsible if you brick, melt or blow up your phone so don't cry to me lol...
Below is the link to download the tar file. If anyone wants to make a cwm flashable zip feel free to and post a link to where it can be downloaded....
Edit....
It has been confirmed that this will work on Bell devices also...

Odin mode or download mode is for flashing a new firmware. I mainly posted this stock recovery for the ones using a custom recovery like cwm or twrp and just wanted to flash the stock recovery back so they could update their phones via a OTA update. If you are running a recovery like cwm or twrp and your phone tells you that you have a ota firmware update available it will not let you install it with a custom recovery. To update via a OTA update you must have the stock Samsung recovery. So now anyone using cwm or twrp can just flash this stock recovery download everoot from the play store for free then run ever root update their phone run ever root again and never even lose root privaledge on their phone....

Has anyone tried it on a canadian i747m yet ?
I'm not willing to be the first one to try it out as I can't afford to brick it due to software incompatibility. :/
Thanks for posting this Gary! And good to see ya here, we gotta get the remaining skyrocket crew to join the dark side lol
Does anyone know if stock recovery is required to perform official OTA updates with the S3 on AT&T? I remember needing stock recovery for updates to the S2 Skyrocket, but I'm not sure if anything's changed with the S3 (and I did see a Rogers user say he was able to get the jb OTA while using TWRP for recovery, so maybe it isn't necessary?).
EDIT: Also wanted to mention, in case anyone is wondering, this .tar does work with Mobile Odin Pro. Just used it successfully.
From what I've heard yes you do need the stock recovery to ota update on the s3. Again I hadn't tried it but that's what I hear anyway.
Oh and its good to be here. I still have my rocket. Its used for highly experimental testing and flashing lol.. I've soft bricked it three times since I've had my s3 in less than a month lol. I just hope my next experiment whatever that may be isn't my last lol...

As far as I know the stock 3e recovery has not changed, it's the same for any build number for the S3. The stock recovery is on a partition separate from the rom so it shouldn't matter which build you're on.
(99% sure on this but someone please correct me if I'm wrong)

Stock 3e recovery? Not familiar with this, so research seems in order. Thanks.
Stock 3e recovery == Stock Samsung recovery
However, I'm still curious to know if the stock recovery is indeed the same for any build number / variant of the North American GS3...
Anyone know if this triggers the counter?

It did not trigger my flash counter....
And I also agree with skrambled I think the stock recovery is for all builds of the S3

Stock Samsung recovery pulled straight from stock firmware and packaged as a Odin flashable tar file. I decided to do this for those who may want or need to flash the stock recovery. I have tested this and worked fine on my phone. I am not sure if it will work with any other carrier besides AT&T so if you try it do so at your own risk and if it works report it and I will add any other confirmed carriers that it works for. I am not responsible if you brick, melt or blow up your phone so don't cry to me lol...
Below is the link to download the tar file. If anyone wants to make a cwm flashable zip feel free to and post a link to where it can be downloaded....
Edit....
It has been confirmed that this will work on Bell devices also...

this stock recovery, will it "upgrade" my phone to 4.3? as in make all the adjustments already made go back to new? asking because i accidentally upgraded what i think was a Knox security thing that crashed my SuperSU and now i cant even start it.
Okay so my dumbass rooted my phone and didn't select a recovery menu >_> wasn't planning on installing anything because everytime i have my phone ends up running crappy even after going back to stock. anyway i just found out that there is a multi window mod but i have to flash it and a rom (Thanks to the guys who made them) do i have to flash to stock then go and re root or can i just run the root program again and this time select a recovery?
You didn't puy any recovery on? So that means you still have the stock one? If not I would say to go through ODIN and flash the phone back to stock, then re-root with TWRP. One of the devs here have a 1 click exe to recover stock through ODIN (saved my ass last night when I wiped the rom AND my recovery folder )

Download the exe. Put the phone in ODIN. Once the exe is running, plug in the USB and his start. About 20 minutes and you'll have a clean, stock rom on there. You'll need to re-root once done.

I'm not sure thats what i'm asking haha i'm already rooted i ran a program that rooted it for me (something QBking uses) and i did just a basic root so I didn't know if i had to restore it to stock then re root or if there was a way to just install my custom recovery

Hmm... you didn't read and follow the directions exactly? Not too much sympathy here. Sorry to be an ahole, but jeez, look before you leap. It literally takes 5 minutes to read and 2 minutes to follow directions.

My question is y root at all? If there was no purpose its seems a little silly. Just my 2 cents.

I'm rooted and running stock right now. Waiting for something that works across the board for me. But I do like to try everything that comes out Also apps like Lucky Patcher need it and I installed the DPS audio manager.
Of course, as soon as CM10 starts rocking the BT streaming I'll be a downloading.
When I first rooted for some reason I couldnt get a custom recovery to stick. I tried multiple times with no luck so eventually I just downloaded goo manager and installed custom recovery script that way. Worked like a charm. Maybe you should try that. Would save a lot of time and effort.

That's because the file on stock roms called /system/recovery-from-boot.p will re-install the stock recovery at every boot. So the trick is to boot straight into recovery and delete that file. Or, flash the Superuser.zip in recovery, boot Android, use an app to delete /system/recovery-from-boot.p, then flash a custom recovery again and you'll be fine.
