Need help with Rooting

So I used the Odin one touch root here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835033&highlight=fh13+root
And it all seems to work fine, and I even got the PASS in the program, but when it rebooted, I got the Android System Recovery.
I hit reboot device in the Android System Recovery and it turned out that my device was not rooted, didn't even get the Super User app...thing.
So any help is appreciated with my situation. I did make sure I have ICS and FH13.
Did you use the rooted one? I think it's in post 2?

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.

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.

Quick Q about Mobile Odin

Does anyone know what does this Means and why is it coming out? (attached image bellow---reactivation lock)cause i remember i clicked yes to doenload some extra files need before this screen. so i clicked EXIT for this screen until i know what it is for and if safe to do so.
dpes this means thatmy phone is gonna be relocked to the network? or something like it?
i have a Tmo US rooted with twrp recovery but i want to change my recovery soooooooo bad to a better one. cause its giving me trouble
ok so i have this files downloaded in the search for a custom recovery:
1. samsung-galaxy-s4-tmo-cwm-odin (zipped) ------> recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.4-jfltetmo.tar (inside Zip)
2. samsung-galaxy-s4-tmo-touch-cwm-odin (zipped) ------> recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.4-jfltetmo.tar (inside Zip)
3. OUDHS-Recovery-jfltetmo-1.0.3.3 (zipped) ------> recovery.img (inside Zip)
4. philz_touch_6.15.4-jfltetmo.tar.md5
5. philz_touch_6.08.9-jfltetmo.tar.md5

OK thanks for the link bro, but actually the version I told you about it the .apk file app for the mobile device, even though I appreciate the link cause now I'm gonna read it to learn some Odin for PC, but again do you know of any other guide for Mobile odin? And regarding my previous question, do you think I should click OK on mobile odin? Or you just don't know?
This is actually the mobile odin I'm talking about bro:

OK thanks I'll read both and get acquainted with them since i will be using them a lot. Also i was reading g the 1st post on the mobile odin post and the Tmo s4 is listed as a supported devices, so you said it is not or did you have a bad experience?

Its supported but there were some things that couldn't be flashed with mobile ODIN so you had to use PC. Nothing that would brick your phone or anything.

Great thanks, I will read the guides but that would be tomorrow cause I'm falling asleep. And in regards to the ROM I will give it a try once I have everything figured out, now for the exposed thingy when I do a search for it to download it... should I search for "exposed" itself? Is that the app or is that the extra setting/add-ons?
