I'm desperately trying to root my Sprint S3 on 4.3.
Two different methods so far required to use Odin to flash a recovery, but Odin hangs every time at "recovery.img".
I have my drivers installed, Debugging enabled, and my phone shows in Odin as "0:[com4]".
I dont have clue why it hangs every time and its really aggravating. Can someone please help? I'll be sure to give everyone who tries to a thanks.
Are you putting the tar file in the pda slot?

Yep. Here's a screenshot. Its in the AP section because I tried on a newer version of ODIN, same result.

Do you have a good cable? Most people like the BlackBerry cables and most have problems using the cable supplied with the phone for more than charging.

You will want Odin v. 3.07, not the v. 3.09. Also, there is a much newer version of Philz available, it is 6.15.7 and is a d2lte version. Link for Philz thread is in my signature in order to access the newest version. Make sure the Auto Reboot box is unchecked in Odin, or else the phone will reboot automatically too early in the process. If it works properly, the green Pass message should show after two minutes, and then you can use your custom recovery to flash the SuperSU zip file to achieve root.

Hey sorry for the late reply. I dont think its the Odin version, because I tried first on 3.07 and had the exact same result. I had autoreboot unchecked previously, I guess I had forgotten it in the time I took the screenshot.
I think I've narrowed it down to the generic cable, but I'll download your updated version and give it a try anyways. Thanks!
----edit---
Well something new... its at least telling me it failed sometimes. But other times it still hangs.

Thank you for sharing!
Even if it may sound noobish, as basic functions are known in odin:: please can you explain in detail the "new" ODIN functions/features ?

So I downloaded the zip. What do I do with the files I extracted? I see three files. Thanks!

You execute the executable. Thats it. No installation. There are pkenty of guides on Odin use, so I wont get into it full blown here.
I see in your sig youre not on a T999. I do hope you're not gonna flash anything from here.

Can you get into recovery mode? Or just download mode?
Do you have KIES installed?
Try keep Odin open and change USB ports, remount the PDA & flash.

Looks like the motherboard is stuffed. Take it into Samsung.
I bought this samsung galaxy the T model. I rooted using ODIN>CWM>SUPERSU. Now i want to install wickedXrom but I have to update the bootloader to ND8 I believe or else risk bricking my phone. I've downloaded the philz recovery to odin flash it to my phone, but it doesnt show up after I click AP on ODIN, even though i have TWO philz recovery files in the folder. I tried removing ".md5" from the name and it turned into a zip file and that didnt help at all. The problem I'm having is with oDIN. If i try to flash "L710-ND8-Bootloader" I get a fail. If i try to flash philz it wont even show up under pda...
I've been researching and looking around for hours now before i finally decided to make a post.

It's good you're getting a fail. This doesn't apply to the L710T Model. Simply go to post #4 of my thread and there is a link to a tutorial on how to flash with the L710T Model. I'll update the OP to include this information so no one gets confused.

and was following this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/help/nb4-to-nh7-firmware-upgrade-via-odin-t2880284
so after I upgraded Via Odin everything passed I rebooted the phone but it was stuck in a boot loop screen from T-Mobile for almost 2 hours
I Pulled the battery the put it back in and rechargred my phone for a bit then I tried to reinstall M919UVUFNK2 via Odin again then it failed now I get this Screen

When I try and go into recovery I get the screen above.
I still can get in to Download mode though
Can someone help me out or point me in the right direction I even tried Kies 3 and it always stops at about 96% same with Odin
Thanks for any help

Ok Fixed it after many hours of searching it was right under my nose , I flashed the latest TWRP Tar file Via Odin and Viola Stock Rom is working M919UVUFNK2, now unto the root
Good luck with the root, I've soft bricked about 5 times so far trying to flash SU and TWRP. For some reason when the M919UVUFNK2 firmware came out my phone did a auto ota which baffles me since root/SU stop carrier access for ota. All info I've found on downgrading to 4.4.2 will brick the device to :/

It depends how root was acquired, if system files are modified, kernel, or recovery, then it won't OTA. NK2 is rootable, and I've also had no problems installing twrp. Must be something you're doing. What is your procedure?
Hey all,
First time I'm trying to root this device, and a long time since I've rooted any device, so I'm a bit rusty ...
While trying to flash with Odin, I'm getting this error (looks like a write permissions error?)

This is what's shown on the device after:
The current firmware on the device is the stock 4.4.2, and I'm using the latest CF Root for it: cfar_samsung_sm-t320_mondrianwifiue_kot49h.t320ues1aqa2_t0
Update:
I also went to updato.com, grabbed my latest firmware, flashed it in Odin (it passed), then re-tried the above: result was the same as above.
Any idea what step I should take next?
TIA

It's been so long i can't even remember the steps i took but if i were to do it right now I would probably flash twrp in odin, reboot directly to recovery and flash supersu.

Thanks, but you have to root before you can install a custom recovery; I'm stuck at trying to get the chainfire root installed.
I'm still stuck, anyone have any other advice?

Nope. I always flash root with custom recovery on every single device I've own which is alot.
If you bothered to follow that guide i included you would see that too. But ok...

Hi, sorry for reviving an old thread but I had this issue last night and wanted to share how I resolved it
I have the same T320UES1AQA2 model but couldn't get the CF autoroot to work either. I ended up going into recovery (Power + Vol Up + Home) wiping data and then flashing CF-Auto-Root-mondrianwifi-mondrianwifixx-smt320.zip which worked perfectly.
I know this is super late but hope it helps and anyone else who stumbles across this
