I searched all yesterday and today and cannot re-root after upgrading from 4.1.2 to 4.3. I always do a ton of searchs no matter what forum I'm on because I don't want to seem lazy like some others out there but this is beyond me. I registered so I could make a thread and this is what I have and the situation:
Samsung Galaxy S3 SCH-R530U
US Cellular
upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.3
kernel 3.031-2025306 [email protected] #1
baseband version R30UVXUBMJA

SE for Android status Enforcing SEPF_SCH-530U_4.3_0010
hardware version R530U.01
Previously rooted using Odin, SuperSU, Titanium Backup Pro, ODIN_CWM6.tar.md5
I took the phone back to stock using unroot through SuperSU and upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.3 OTA with no problems. I've been trying to re-root using numerous combinations (ODIN3 v3.07) and no matter what I do the Samsung Security notice blocks rights to SuperSU (beta v1.76) and Titanium Backup Pro so it won't root. This is the message I get:
"Security notice - unauthorized access to a secured area has been blocked. Tap to learn more."
The most recent md5 file I've tried is CF-Auto-Root-d2usc-d2usc-schr530u.tar.md5 but nothing else has worked either. I'm at my wits end and my brain is about ready to explode. I just need to be able to access Titanium Backup Pro so I can shut off a few programs and processes. Any help is VERY VERY much appreciated. Thanks!!!!!
TTT for some help please.

I have same phone. Recently went to Slimbean (4.3.1). I have Triangle Away and it couldn't access root. I also used CF-Auto-Root. Used a root check app, it says I am rooted. Odin also said device passed. Super User says I am missing a binary and I need to root manually. Trying to find that info
If you find anything out please let me know. A root checker says I'm rooted but I can't access SuperSU or Titanium backup as the S3 is blocking it.
Did you get the Slimbean 4.3.1 for USCC and if so where?
There was just a new SuperSU update and it granted me access to everything. I asked if I wanted it to disable KNOX and I said yes. Titanium Backup works and so does Triangle Away. I think I'm good to go.
How did you update?

How did you update to 4.3? Did you use the simple update you can download to computer, or did you use Kies? I'm not having any luck with either. I chatted twice with a Samsung Tech person, but neither one had any help for me. Just thought I'd check to see if you could help me. It's not easy finding someone else on here with US Cellular. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I tried to download the simple update but my phone wouldn't update to the 4.3 so I did it over the air. You probably know but the OTA software update is in "about device." We have four S3s in our home and only one of them hasn't been able to get the download OTA yet. The only bug that I've found is when you start the phone it will show numerous downloads in the notifications and they will come back even if you clear them. The way to get rid of them is to go to the download icon (green arrow) and clear all the downloads and restart. Hope this helps.

I have downloaded the simple update, but get an error msg while trying to install to computer. (1152: error extracting) whatever that means. I uninstalled all Samsung anything from my computer, restarted, shut off firewall & Norton, downloaded again, but same thing while trying to install to computer. I updated to 4.1.2 this way, but keep getting an error on 4.3 update.
I tried to go through Kies. It updated Kies to 2.6, it said Kies3 was for 4.3. When I tried to hook into Kies, it refuses to accept my IMEI #. Says its incorrect. wth. The Samsung Chat Tech told me USCellular 4.3 update wasn't available yet through Kies OTA.
When I tried to get the 4.1.2 update through the phone, it would never give it to me. Even though I unrooted and used Triangle Away, it still knew my sg3 was modified. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Do you have any suggestions ? I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to these phones.
I'm sorry to bother you with this, but it's rare to find someone with USCellular on here. Thank you so much for your time.
I got the error message too so something is wrong with the download from Samsung/USCC. Just keep trying to do the OTA update and maybe it will go through. My GUESS is that Samsung and USCC stopped doing the update because of a couple bugs or issues. The reason I say that is I updated mine one day (worked), my wife's the next (worked), my son's the next days later (worked) and tried my other son's a couple days later and no update for him. I unrooted mine before the update without doing triangle away so I don't know if that really has anything to do with it at all. However, it does have to be unrooted if you do the OTA. Good luck!
I used Triangle Away, then unrooted. My phone still says 'modified' even though counter no longer says 2. When I try OTA through the phone, it constantly sticks on 'checking for updates'. I'm sure it's because it still says modified. I tried using Kies, my phone will not connect. Keeps saying my s/n is incorrect. I understand my IMEI has been corrupted.
I have started a thread on here for some help in how to get the 4.3 update.
Thank you so much for trying to help me. I will be eligible for an upgrade soon. I just may have to wait to have anything more than 4.1.2.
Again, thank you.
Samsung

it looks to me like samsung are finally making a stand against rooting although i do not agree with this as i use an app called freedom and when i open it i get a security issue from Samsung
The only reason i left iphone for samsung was because i felt like they had something other apple with hardware and i was happy to do this as i could get root access but for now i see that this might not be possible for a while.
i recommend installing a normal superuser.apk and that might work but i cannot check this right now as i am out
i hope this little bit of information did help in anyway

So, I recently updated my Glide to ICS via the offical Samsung Kies way.
I was having problems with it to say the least, so i sought out a root, and began to follow the directions here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378082
I assume this is not for phones with the Official ICS update on it because when i reached step 10. After pushing the Kernel via Odin...and waiting for my phone to reboot. All i get is the Samsung logo across my screen with a ! at the bottom with a yellow triangle around it. It doesn't go anywhere else. I am able to reboot into Download mode so i hope there's a way to fix it.
So if anyone can point me in the right direction on this, i'd be much appreciated.

reflash the ics update via odin. should get you back running
Once you get it back on ICS use this guide to root it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30233038 Read the first 2 posts and you should be able to get root with no problems.

Ive got ICS back on my phone, finally. However i keep getting "unfortunately, the process com. android.phone has stopped." And am unable to get service, i did receive a text message, however i was unable to open my messages without the above mentioned error message. Seems pretty hopeless right now.
SUCCESS!!! Thank you everyone. I'm still experiencing some of the same issues i had before i started all this mess. (for some reason people can hardly understand me on the other end of calls, when i put the noise supression on it gets a little better, but meh) Other than that i have no idea if i attained root or not. lol. I did however have CWRM touch working and installed superuser from .zip from it...so i assume that means i also attained root? Thanks again!
My T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 was rooted by Odin, so the system said that the device has been modified, software updates are not available when I checked for the Software updates (for the new released multi-window feature,cool). The device is still with its stock rom but only rooted.
Is there anyway to get the device updated ? Thanks
Screen shots are attached:
I hooked up the phone to PC and updated via Kies. Works okay but I lost root, and device now says normal. There's prolly some way to keep root, but overall no big deal to me..

yeah, I tried Kies,but it failed,leaving me a screen saying that the update has encountered an issue and suggesting me to try rebuild the connection again, but actually the computer didn't recognize the device anymore. It ends up refleshing a stock rom using Odin. But the apps and data was still there and I got a OTA update...of course, the root was gone anyway ,thanks a lot.
Use triangle away, the the unroot option in superuser. Viola ! stock device ready for updates !
Hi to all.
I tried to follow the directions here
idigitaltimes.com/articles/23009/20140512/samsung-galaxy-s3-android-4-2-kitkat.htm
It seemed really straight forward and it was for precisely my phone or so I thought.
I know there are similar threads and I did read them but couldn't download any of the sample files or even really tell whether they did something different.
I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 (american version)
Model number SPH-L710 hardware version L710.14
Android version 4.4.2
Baseband version L710vpudnd8
kernal 3.4.0-1368792
Build kot49hl710vpudnd8
I used Odin3 v1.85
with a file called CF-Auto-Root.d2spr-d2spr-sph710.tar.md5
Odin tells me a I passed the rooting
SuperSU is on the phone but can't be clicked on and periodically gives me a crash message.
I tested it with Root Checker Basic (from play store) and get the message "please wait for root checker your system appears to be running very slow" then "sorry this device does not have proper root access"
The phone is indeed going slowly.
Plesae help me get my phone rooted.
Whether this matters I'm not planning to use a major mod I just want to mostly use the standard software but have a few minor things that I can't do without rooting.
-- why in the world does it require rooting to have control of whether programs use data or not is beyond me?
You might want to go to try going to the play store and see if you can't update supersu. If successful, it will update your binaries and then you'll be able to open supersu....
But, sounds like you have other phone issues besides root?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
it appears to have fixed itself
I tried several times to get it to update. Then I left it alone and went back and s upersu updated on its own and it appears to be fixed.
Seems that the technical problem was located between the fleshy inputs. Though I won't know until I try to use my superpowers.
Hello. Last week I got impatient with the fact that I could not write to my sd card under the newest versions of Android (thanks, Google!), so I rooted my phone with a (supposedly) unobstrusive ROM as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2143479.
And today, after installing the baseband update, my phone will no longer boot. The screen just goes dark after saying Samsung Galaxy Note II.
I tried reinstalling the root, I tried installing a custom ROM, I tried resetting to factory and clearing the cache. Nothing has worked.
I really would like to have my phone back Does anyone have any suggetions?

I only backed up some of my applications. I am not sure this will work but I will try when I get home.
If anyone else has any ideas, I would still appreciate to hear them. I need the phone for business reasons, so I need to purchase another tonight if I am not able to fix this one.
FWIW, at one point I noticed that the phone still made my speakers crackle when I put it near them, so it was transmitting *something*. The screen is blank though.

I'm in his exact same boat. Rooted about a month ago, the update soft bricked my phone. I've tried everything from flashing rom after rom to trying to recover in Kies.
No dice, when you try to recover in Kies, it won't recognize your device, it just saying Connecting until it asks you to reboot your device.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Been triyng to fix this for 18 hours so far
If you need any info to help just tell me I'll provide everything.
Some info:
In download mode, this is displayed;
ODIN MODE

Your specs are EXACTLY the same as mine. I am getting the dreaded SW Rev. Invalid Magic string when I try to flash from Kies. I am currently downloading a 4.4.2 ROM from d-h.st to try to fix it; I will keep you updated.
Side rant: If you're a tiny website like d-h.st, probably not a good idea to force the user to type in their credit card by hand. Seriously, I was all ready to throw money at the screen and get this stupid thing over with, but like heck if I'm going to type my credentials into that kind of site.
Just curious guys but have you all tried flashing stock rom back to the phone using odin?

jaybeerange- this will not work because Samsung Kies tries to restore to version 4.1.2, but the boot loader disallows it because it's too old.
If you have a 4.4.2 sitting around, by all means, let us know. I've been trying to download from d-h.st, but rumor has it that it will fail.
I am literally out of options.
Yeah the one from dhst is the one im talking about. I dont know why it wouldnt work. If I remember right it doesn't contain the bootloader so that shouldnt be a problem. The bootloader just wont allow itself to revert to an older version but its a 4.4.2 rom so it should work
---------- Post added at 03:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 AM ----------
Just to be clear you know that when I say odin I mean the odin application and not kies right?
This OTA update bricked mine as well. Don't install this if your rooted!!!
I was able to take the update and im rooted and running custom recovery. Only thing I can think of that might be different is that I never took the official ota update. I flashed a stock 4.4.2 rom in recovery so im still on the 4.3 bootloader
Sweet mother of Zeus, I downloaded the 4.4.2 ROM off d-h.st, flashed it in Odin, and unbricked my phone.
Instructions for everyone else:
* Download Android 4.4.2 stock here: http://d-h.st/8HG. FYI, don't bother buying a subscription to the site to speed up the download unless you're doing it to thank the owners. Membership WON'T DO ANYTHING to help your speed. You'll just have to wait ~4 hours.
* Flash with Odin 3.0.7.
If anyone who has rights wants to post in this thread, it might be helpful.
I plan to set up a torrent tonight for anyone who wants to download it without the long wait.
Here is the magnet link: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:03336f24f4d6b9e86ca608d7766287edc7cd5d73&dn=I317-ODIN-UCUCNE5-Stock-No-Recovery.zip&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.publicbt.com%3A80
By all means download, but PLEASE seed if you do. I am allocating a lot of bandwidth but I can only upload so much!
PS. If you're worried about the reliability of the torrent, d-h.st provides an md5 sum that you can use to check the file after you've downloaded it.
Exactly what the guy said about flashing the stock rom is right. However, since my phone didn't have enough space, it didn't reset my phone. Maybe it works if you go into download mode (power, volume up and home) and then reboot it works. Have rebooted it twice since then and it still works. Everything is just how i had it before the update, but with the update.
no seeds for the torrent?

I think the technical term in torrent speak is leeches. So your torrent has zero seeders, zero peers, and 3 leeches.
ATT update
Rule #1 of OTA. No root and stock completely.
This link here shows you every file that the OTA checks for and many other things before it does anything.

If something does not match, it craps out.
I'm downloading the Zen's ODIN NE5 from dev-host now. They must have fixed issues because it's flying.
I should have it in 10-15 minutes. I have uploaded a version that I had to androidhost, but I'm waiting to hear from Zen if he's ok with me posting a mirror.
And I need to make sure that what I'm downloading and what I have uploaded in the same. But like I said looks like Dev-Host is working better, or at least better than it has been the past couple of days.

It wouldn't be so bad if I hadn't explicitly asked people to seed. Anyway, there's pne seeder: me. Interestingly, I tried to attach to it with uTorrent, and I can't connect to the host. So maybe there's something wrong with my torrent server. If you want, PM me and I will sign in to Windows and seed from there.
Had exact same issue and flashed the boot loader and now my phone works great!
here is the link: http://d-h.st/qDY
Have a good one guys
Had a lot of hope for this, but I'm now getting one step further in my loop (I see the ATT logo spinning then it just hangs).
Any ideas?
I've tried searching around here for an answer, but I haven't really been able to find anything solid regarding the issue that I'm experiencing. The other day I popped my sim card into my sgh-i467, as I do from time to time, to check for any OTA updates. This device is usually mounted in my vehicle, so I don't regularly check for updates. Sure enough, an OTA update was available. Tablet was at maximum charge, so I went ahead and chose to do the update. Unfortunately, the update failed at around 93% and went into a boot loop. There was nothing crucial on the device, so I figured it'd be no big deal to just re-flash the firmware if need be. However, I can only seem to find a KIES image for 4.1.2, and while I didn't think to verify exactly what version I was on before the bootloop/brick, I'm fairly certain I was on 4.2.xx.
From what I understand, the bootloader updates with 4.4, correct? With the bootloader getting updated, downgrading to 4.1.2 isn't possible or feasible, right? I didn't think to confirm this before I attempted to flash the KIES image for 4.1.2 via odin (kies never seems to actually see my device), which fails every attempt. I was originally able to get into recovery, but I kept seeing that /system wasn't found. I'm assuming that the OTA update partially installed, before failing, and either corrupted the partition scheme or updated the bootloader but not the system?
I'm dead in the water at this point, and AT&T is obviously no help. Plus, I don't the device on contract with them anyway, so I'm starting to think that my only option is to contact Samsung. However, I really don't want to have to send the unit in, and given it's age, I don't think it's worth investing anything in it if the repair isn't covered somehow. Plus I enjoy tinkering, I'm not new to the scene, and I'd really like to come up with a solution that doesn't require Samsung.
I don't suppose any kind people out there have any suggestions, similar experiences, etc. do they? I'd really like to hear from anyone who's got something to offer! Thanks in advance for your help!

You need to upgrade to keis 3.0 and reboot, then start kies, then boot note into download mode and have kies detect and reload the update.
Too bad you let the Note update to Kit Kat, Jellybean is better, on the LTE Note.

Thank you very much for the information! Unfortunately, I've tried Kies 3.0. It notifies me that my device isn't compatible with Kies 3.0. With the other version of Kies, 2.6 maybe(?), it never ends up being able to connect. I've tried manual initialization, but when after I enter my model number, it won't accept my serial.
Take it to a BEST BUY with a Samsung Experience Center (Kiosk (Most all of them in larger cities have them) and they will fix your SGH-i467 for free. I did almost the same exact thing as you (trying to solve a EFS problem) and was stuck. I have posted about it on here before. They will not charge you BUT you may run into a clueless rep now and then. If you do, ask them to call for help and they will get you fixed up in a hurry. Hope this helps.
