[HOWTO] [ROOT] No Tripping Flash Counter [Tmobile / Wind / Mobilicity / Videotron
guide i downloaded all i need for my (T-,Mobile) S3 t999 my phone has 4.1.2 newest update. my question is: I found something while reading about needing a superuser file to put into your phone. but on this walkthrough i dont see one. or even that i need one. Again i was gonna ask in that specific topic but alas im new user and cannot. Thank you ahead of time.
You don't need it, just follow that guide and you'll be good

The root66 firmware in that tgread is pre rooted, so it already has Super User installed.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
There's different root methods. The one with superuser you can find on Galaxys3root.com
Basically you put the superuser zip file on your internal sdcard. Put cwm in your phone through Odin. Then flash superuser through cwm and you're done.
Both root methods work. I did my friend a favor by rooting his galaxy S 3 two days ago by this method.

Not gonna brick with Root66. Its a very easy, very reliable method.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I agree. It doesnt get much simpler than Odin and root66!
Just be absolutely sure you are using the right firmware for your model phone, and that you have enough battery charge. (Doesnt take a lot, but 50% to be safe).
Backup and factory reset for the best results.

Actually he includes really extensive instructions in his description in the market, and in the app. It actual is more user friendly than the ODIN on the computer. It knows what you're flashing based off the file type selected and automatically readies your phone for everything, even going so far as to block off access to other options which would cause damage to your phone. Plus its impossible to lose root and it doesn't up your Odin binary counter OR cause that awful yellow triangle. This is a God send.

What do you mean the extra file? The extra file it downloads to get itself working when you first open the app? I'm not sure what it is.. I just assumed it was the rest of the program to cut down on a huge download from the market. But I'm not sure.

Whether you buy the app or use the free version it still uses that file and my question was what that file actually is for not if the app is worth $2.
Not sure if I am unlucky or what, but I can't get mobile Odin to flash anything correctly. I've had boot loops, stuck at Samsung splash screen and it just plain not flashing what it said it did. I am disappointed I paid for this app. Regular Odin is much more reliable.

There was a glitch he had to fix along the lines of what you're experiencing. His fix was pushed through the market. And then be asked us all to delete the file that the app downloads initially so that it could redownload an updated version. That should fix your issues. Mobile Odin has been nothing but reliable for me :-\

I had a hard time at first, odin kept giving me the "incorrect file type" or some such. Make sure you're flashing a "pda" and not "phone." Also make sure you're using the tar.md5 file as is. This was strange to me coming from the nexus one.
Just a head's up, DO NOT flash roms for the i9100, that's how I hard bricked my "g-sII."

You may already know this if you've had experience with previous phones, but take your time and thoroughly read threads before doing anything. Your phone was cheap to get, but will be expensive to replace if you brick it. There is at least one dev here who frequently posts roms that never work (but the descriptions make them sound awesome), so read more than the first post--check out the last pages too.

Here's the link to the Note camera/gallery thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32293258. When you flash it, you'll have a 2nd gallery and a 2nd camera. You'll need to delete data for the new gallery and reboot to get it working. The only thing I've seen that doesn't work in it is the "Cartoonify" effect. And the name of the dev I was referring to earlier is droidmodder. He seems to be trying hard, but hasn't been very successful yet. People give him a lot of crap in his threads because the roms apparently have never worked. But who knows...one of these days he might be awesome.

I think you might wanna focus on flashing a custom ROM that already has it removed (almost all of them do), as it's easier than decompiling and recompiling an apk.

I'm talking modified TouchWiz, GApps are definitely not a problem to get tho. The only licensing issue was that Google wanted them separate from the ROM. And they are.
Roms
I see.Took the first step to install a rom and downloaded rom manager(free) (already rooted btw). I read some complaints in reviews so I uninstalled. I am curious if the paid version would be better as I heard it has a whole menu of roms in which to choose for my specific model phone Is this the track to be on for a custom rom that you speak of? Thanks.

DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER ON THIS DEVICE!!! It is not supported. Use Mobile Odin to flash a custom kernel such as Agat's in Original Development. Tar file is used with Mobile Odin.

+1 ROM manager will lead to serious issues, take it from an experienced user. I made a lot of Noob mistakes before I landed on these forums with this device, that was one of them. I was lucky and found the resources to fix my device, but none of them work with jellybean.

I actually made a zip for micmars that did exactly that. All you have to do is flash it in cwm. I'll try to find it today. And +2 on the not using ROM manager. App is dangerous!

No Rom required
SO,I definetly am throwing in the towel on custom Rom's.Which leads me to ask if after I uninstall Busy Box it will cause misbehaviour on my phone.I did not select to install the applets but do have Busy Box installed. Should I select this app to be uninstalled from the play store or the app itself?On a separate note-I installed an app which was supposed to remove Sprint from the lockscreen but didn't hence removal of this app is pending.

I'm talking modified TouchWiz, GApps are definitely not a problem to get tho. The only licensing issue was that Google wanted them separate from the ROM. And they are.
