update 3-5-2013: the developer Cofface himself is now in XDA and posted a new verison of recovery HERE!
* All credit goes to Chinese developer Cofface *
GOOD NEWS!
This should be the easiest way to root the i9500 (yes, the so called 8-core one) by now.
Tested on FW I9500ZCUAMDG and should be working on others.
Recovery Feature:
1. Based on CWM 6.0.3.1 (Thanks CM Team!)
2. ROOT your phone
Just download the recovery and unzip it, flash the cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar as PDA in Odin.
Then turn off the phone and enter recovery by pressing Vol Up+Home+Power keys, and select ROOT YOUR PHONE, reboot, DONE.
Download: Hotfile Dropbox
update: Some Russian FW users reported this will not work, i've inform the developer Cofface and will update later if he fixed this. And here is a way to root Russian FW.
update2: I've talked to Cofface and he is on vacation now but if you need further helps, feel free to contact with him via Gtalk: [email protected]
update3: Here is a video tutorial by ashwin123, thanks!

So are you able to get titanium backup to work now? This root is full root right? No catch anywhere?
Hi !!!
Good news...
But i tried, and it doesn't work.
After reboot, i see that SuperSU is installed, but it is not working. Impossible to update the binaries, and no "root applications" working.
Was a good try

You, good sir, probably did something wrong. Mine's working just fine with Titanium Backup Pro, rooted.

About mine, i pushed CWM with odin, then did a reboot, clicked the "root" option, and did a reboot.That's it
BUT, my i9500 has the russian firmware, wich is : Russia - 2013 April - 4.2.2 - I9500XXUAMDK - I9500SERAMDK
It may be the "problem"..!?
Yeah just did the process..... Unable to get my root apps to work... i have a feeling it has to do with the firmware. Mine is also the russian fw.... Gotta flash the chinese one and then see..

Perhaps? Perhaps give it another shot using Odin which is in the ZIP, be USB debugged, and set not as a camera?

Thanks Gseeker... I'm in China, and bought mine here too, but i flashed the russian firmware to get the european languages (the chinese firmware has got only chinese, english, and corean languages).

Flash zip from recovery.
enjoy
Downoad here
If my help was useful just click thanks!

Just flash the zip in recovery? Will the kernel for kitkat work for lollipop?
If this zip contains the lollipop kernel, how can it be flashed over recovery? Wouldn't it need to be flashed from flashtool?

Well I think the base is different, isn't it? German O2?
Flashed with MultiROM TWRP, just to test as a secondary ROM, bad luck I guess. It installs as it should, but does not boot. Something about MultiROM error. I guess maybe because of the size of the zip file.
Does this rom is only for Germany brand? Or it's already debranded?

This was not question and I think you know it. :laugh::highfive:
I have installed this version meanwhile and it look really good!
As it's stock I had to debloat it heavily before I installed my apps. But now it's running fine.
One question: Why do you add Recovery 2.8.7? Latest is 2.8.10. Just curious...
btw. I hate the new structure of Lollipop Zips with /system in one image. I loved to debloat roms before flashing. Sigh...
Thanks for sharing this!

Thanks also for your positive feedback
I put the recovery 2.8.7 because, in my opinion, the latest version for Z1 running L is still buggy, I had problems with the Internal SD,not with root but I think the folder structure...
And at the moment I'm really busy, I don't have time to build a bebloated rom / deodexed, maybe in a few weeks.....
Bootloop & can't enter Recovery
see title.. was on liquidsmooth 5.0.2 .. flashed via TWRP .. made Factory Reset etc. Now Bootloop and cant enter Recovery.. Yay
I tried every button combination .. it always tries to boot.. and reboots..
I also tried flashing the FTF - C6903_5.0.2_C6903.ftf -- Also Bootloop .. anyone an idea what the problem could be?
The development team TeamWin - TWRP has created a new version of TWRP 3.0.0-0 Released for a variety of smart phones, including our .tak how many smartphones, not all all works correctly. With regard to our Samsung GT-I9300I Galaxy S III Duos, incorrectly stated the date created backup-a, since its establishment, it is better to change the date on the real, not to get confused later. In the setting of the TWRP, you need to set the time zone UTC +12 for the proper display time of your zone.
For flashing TWRP 3.0.0-0 use Flashify program: Flashify (for root users) or Rashr: ®Rashr - Flash Tool. Remove from the archive file using any file manager.
Added file to Flash via recovery
In to TWRP 2.8.7.0 , too - the same bug.
You can do a zip installed by recovery?
example:
package_extract_file("recovery.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery");
It is not possible?

One suggestion I have just tried out that people here might appreciate: Install official TWRP 3.0 via TWRP Manager (install from Google Play). Seems to work without a problem on my i9301i.

I think TWRP 3.0.0.0 works great even on I9300I .
Got my hands again on the stock factory image Will be providing link for it soon for people to customize it, and hopefully @codeworkx can take the camera improvements for these and put it to the LineageOS 13 to improve camera function.

Kernel v15 is for MM rom. If you want to flash Nougat v3 rom on g928f choose supersu root in aroma (with Magisk or no root my device boot in recovery) if doesn't boot yet reflash khongloi kernel v3. These steps work for me
I installed the ROM and it's not booting. After showing the boot logo the screen goes blank It isn't booting into twrp.
But boots into download mode. I selected root with magisk and the first option when modem selection.
I was on Mm ambassdi port of Note 7.
Also. It shows kernerl not seandroid enforcing
