Hey folks. Just heard the 4.1.2 update is out. I am requesting for the stock koodo 4.1.2 with root injected into it. Preferably a flashable zip I can use through recovery. Seeing as I cant update through kies or OTA. Thanks guys. I hope I put this in the right spot and sorry for any duplicate threads in advance. I haven't seen anyone else send out a request yet on this matter.

If it's actually up, it hasn't been uploaded here just yet. That being said, you could backup your stuff and update with http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ (go check if the firmware is out for SGH-747m).
It won't be pre-rooted but you can root after flashing it. Also, Odin is usually needed to flash stock.

Stock with root injected is good if you don't want to trigger the flash counter incured by using a custom recovery. If it is a zip you will trigger the flash counter. The stock root injected would need to be done with odin or heimdall.
if you just want root then pulled the firmware from sammobile and then just root it.
Someone is bound to put up a rooted stock zip soon. are you rooted now ?
Yes I am. I originally used Odin to to do so. I found someone on here that had the koodo 4.1.1 with root already added.
Send from my awesome stock rooted I-747M from koodo.
Just to inform you, the flash counter was triggered using root66_KDO_I747MVLDLK4 through odin. It changed from official Samsung to custom and the counter to 1. This allows me to update through kies but not OTA. I want to use OTA so I can keep root. Here is what ive been trying...
Installed Triangle Away and reset the counter to 0 and back to Official Samsung SGH-I747M. I can now go into software update and perform an update. But now instead of saying my phone has been modified, it just does an endless searching for updates. My plan was to use voodoo root keeper but its pointless now if I cant even see that update.
Ohhh well. I can go back to stock and update that way (which I will eventually do) but I absolutely need root as I use my phone for ARliberator, OBD2, and much more.
I will keep searching and hoping I can find a way to update to 4.1.2 to keep root or just be patient and wait for someone to make a stock rooted version I can install through odin or flash recovery.

It's just as easy to flash the update and then root. There are guides all over the stickies for it.
OK, I went ahead and updated with kies, then used CF autoroot with odin and now im upgraded with root. Now I feel like an idiot.... It seems so simple now and easy to do. I just made a bigger deal out of it than it was. Kept all my existing apps and info on the phone too. But made a backup just in case. You may now close this thread. Thanks!
HI
I am new to xda community and to android community as well.
I want to root my phone n7100.
Note: 1. My warranty is up (here it is for one year )
Note :2. Don't care if knox counter shows x,y,z, etc after flashing.
After going through many threads in the forum. Everything boils down to the following choices of rooting:
1. Directly flashing CF-Autoroot using Odin, this will keep intact the stock recovery along with providing root access and installing Supersu.
2. Flash Philz touch recovery and then install via the recovery the supersu zip file for gaining access to the root.
My question is which is the best way to go about rooting since I'll be taking away the root virginity of the my N7100.
PS: I also want to keep my options open to flashing custom rom (probably at a later date )
Thanks and sorry if such a question if already posted.
Tonight I tried to root my ATT Galaxy S3 I747UCUEMJB which is running on 4.3.
I rooted with Odin3 v1.85 and CF-AutoRoot-d2att-dtuc-samsungsghi747.tar.md5
After is rebooted I was greeted with the friendly images attached below. Any ideas on what to do?
I have been looking on this forum and others with no success. Someone please help!

Hey Chris. I have the same phone. And just in case you have issues with flashing any roms I made this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552952
It differently helped and now I'm able to flash. Long story short that UCUEMJB bootloader is new and some roms even though are for 4.3 may not flash because the Dev hasn't updated the bootloaders. You may come across some people telling you to update your bootloader which you have to careful. I made the mistake of flashing the loader and it hard bricked my phone and that linked helped me and theramsey3 was very helpful to get me back and running. It can be confusing about what loader to update. My advice if you flash any rom either post or as the Dev if they updated to the UCUEMJB bootloader. But just in case If you mess up and hard brick your phone that link will save your phone.

Can someone direct me to a tutorial on how to root my Galaxy S3 AT&T (SGH-I747) running Android 4.3. All I want is to root it and have SU so that I can remove bloatware and use wifi teather.
I'm very worried about rooting and having my bootloader or Knox do something and brick my phone. (this will be my first time rooting) I just want to make sure I do everything right the first time.
flash it with CFAutoroot on Odin.. make sure you check your model and the file you are downloading.. if SuperSU crash after rooting update it via playstore and it will ask you to disable the knox then tap yes to disable...
when im on odin an doing the update for SuperUS do I put the update under Phone or PDA?
I swtiched to t-mobile from ATT, expecting that I can call ATT and get an unlock code fast. However, they moved to some stupid online unlock code request method, which after 5 days, has not resulted in any more than "we are currently working on it."
So after reading more and more about unlocking my S3, it seems like everyone is having problems unlocking 4.3, and there's talk about how a firmware downgrade or root will brick a OTA 4.3 phone.
My phone is now rooted with a custom bootloader, all done AFTER upgrading to OTA 4.3. not sure if it'll help anyone out, but here's what I did:
1. started with official att 4.2 rom installed, completely stock phone.
2. tried the debug menu sim unlock method, did not have the appropriate menu, someone suggested to upgrade to latest firmware.
3. upgraded to OTA 4.3
4. tried debug sim unlock, still no initializ option
5. Installed custom recovery via odin
6. Did not install due to recovery/bootloader override files in 4.3 rom, also could not rename/delete these files
7. Used CF-auto-root to root phone, using the latest odin, NOT 1.85 as linked in the CF-auto-root thread
8. Used the samsung toolbox and flashed touch recovery
9. Updated SuperSU to latest version using apk file, backed up relevant data using Titanium, disabled KNOX, etc.
10. Loaded StockMOD ROM | AT&T 4.3 UCUEMJ2 onto SD card, and flashed new rom using touch recovery
*I was trying a ton of things last night, so there may have been an omitted step here, but this is essentially what I did.
Phone now rooted and running StockMOD 4.3 with no problems.
BUT IT'S STILL SIM LOCKED!! <- need help with this
my experience is only unlocking from 4.1.1 stock, then updating. after re-reading your post this method may not work, and it sounds like you already tried it.

Afraid it may remain locked until you actually have the unlock code. So far, nobody has posted a (credible) report of being able to unlock for free once you've taken the 4.3 update. Unfortunately, the advice you got on upgrading to 4.3 was wrong because you could have safely downgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1 where the free unlock option would have been available.
Your best bet would, therefore, to put more pressure on AT&T for the unlock code. If you are eligible, they should oblige.
In order to enter the unlock code, you need to be running and stock ROM.
^ I was just about to ask that... I'll need to get the stock ROM again now...
So I got the stock rom, and I used touch recovery to install the zip... but it said it failed??
So I tried this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
Forgot which one I used.. I think the CWM version. Flashed w/ Touch Recovery, and the unlock code worked! woo hoo!!
Now to re-root my phone and install all my apps again... T_T

Now that you have stock 4.3, try Method 2 in the thread below to root ....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991
I was able to root just fine. Thanks though.
Actually, the touch recovery asked if I wanted to install supersu right after I flashed the original 4.3 recovery, and I said yes. This still allowed me to unlock since it was still stock att rom. I'm now running OSE 4.4. =)
Astana... what pin# did you use?

If you're asking for an unlock code, its different for every device. Based on the imei from what I understand.

T999LUVUBNF4 Root
Hey, I've been trying to root my S3 running the T999LUVUBNF4 firmware, but I'm having trouble. Towelroot doesn't support it, I haven't seen anything about a Root66, and I've heard mixed reports on CF-auto root. Does anyone know if there is a workable solution yet? How would I go about flashing SuperSU? Thanks.
Okay I've recently just flashed the root66 firmware that gave me supersu and all that.
My question is... Where do i go from here?
How would i proceed to
1) Install TWRP?, which version as well? Is 2.8 d2tmo fine? Can i have some instructions whether i use TWRP manager(goomanager doesn't seem to exist anymore) or do i have to go into download and flash through odin 3.09?
2) Installing a custom rom? I want to install Paranoid Android 4.6 beta 5 for D2lte but i'm not sure how to go about it. I have already downloaded the rom itself but not sure how to proceed from here. Also, how would i get the working and latest version of Gapps? (Also, can you tell me how to install Cyanogenmod 11 for d2lte as well?)
3) What are some cool apps to get?
4) Which root apps/roms/softwares will brick my phone? I'm never sure which thing will work and which won't.
5) how do i install xposed?
6) How do i remove all the bloatware? and how would i got about flashing through my phone without using the computer? is mobile odin compatible with my phone?
My phone is the SGH-T999L and i have no idea if i have a locked bootloader and how i would go about and bypass the limitations of this locked bootloader

Please don't post the same thing on multiple threads. Not being rude but it doesn't help at all
Rooting SGH-T99L with T999LUVUBNF4
I've read most of the more recent posts, and it is still unclear to me how to root my T999L which is already on the T999LUVUBNF4 baseband and build. I've seen references to cf-auto-root (like serio22 above), but the T999 (which I believe works for T999L) is based on T999UVALEM, which is 4.0.4 ICS. I certainly don't want to downgrade that far. The latest firmware on the first page of this Root66 thread is T999L_UVUBNC1, and there was a post indicating better reception with the newer modem, so I'd rather not downgrade that either. If I flash T999L_UVUBNC1 will my baseband remain intact (BNF4)? Or should I wait for a pre-rooted T999L_UVUBNF4? Or is there a better way altogether to root my T999L/BNF4?
Also, for other n00bs reading this, it's pretty clear that towelroot doesn't work on BNF4.
Thanks!!

anyone have 4.4.? for wind mobile what ever is the new one stock that is rooted ?
I tried flashing UVDLJC - UVDMD5 (latest OTA update) using Multiboot Recovery v2.2 - (twrp2.8.3.0)
When flashing directly onto blank partition, I got some error about missing build.prop, and so decided to try flashing on top of stock ROM.
Stock I have installed as Flash PureStock Rom + Secure UVAMB7 Kernel (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43772060&postcount=3) -- again, in multiboot -- and tried installing OTA on top of that. Got "error executing updater binary in zip"
What am I doing wrong?

slimkat v9 to stock tw
Please help me. I have a sgh-t999. I want to know is it safe to install stock tw t999_uvuenc2. I'm currently running slimkat v9. My baseband is t999uvuenc2 and my android version is 4.4.4 i really want my s3 to revert back to stock. Ive been asking to the roms posted in this unit if it safe to direct flash but i havent got a good advice. I really want the stock touchwiz. Pls help me.
Which firmware to use
After I un-bricked my SGH-T999 with the debrick image sdcard ( YAYYY), I was able to boot with the stock 4.3 rom again.
I reflash the root66 4.3 firmware hoping it could get the correct boot image back in place. However it got stuck at the Samsung logo.
So I went into stock recovery and did a wipe/factory reset. Now I can still boot with the debrick sdcard but I am back in JellyBean (4.1.2 T999UVDMD5).
Which firmware should I flash 4.3 or 4.1.2? And did I miraculously downgraded my firmware ( I thought it wasn't possible) ?
