I've done a quick google search and I haven't found a root for it... All I found were ROMs and etc. I am very new to rooting phones, and the last time I tried to root my Note 1, I bricked it and I had to spend 3 hours unbricking it. Does there happen to be a guide on this forum or YouTube? Can you use any roots for 4.3?
EDIT: This is for the SGH I747, not the I717. I am wrong in the title. I thought my phone was the I717, but it's not.

Sorry, I didn't notice those. I'm rather new to this forum. My apologies.
If you are having problems finding anything, or getting used to the layout, check out XDA Assist in the main General forums. Its a group of RC's that will help you on your way. In the spirit of xda, they won't provide answers for you, but will help you to find the answers yourself. Basically, they will help by pointing you in the right direction for what you need.

look around the board lol LOADS AND LOADS of info here DIVE in !
check the stickies at the top of each subforum. You will find PLENTY of info and how-to's. Also, it really helps to just spend a few hours on here browsing around, you will be surprised at what you will learn.
Pretty much what everyone has already said, but I'd also like to mention the IRC channels. There's a sticky post for that. The guys in the chat rooms have been friendly and helpful in my adventures as an EVO newbie.
I am rooted, but before I start flashing roms, I want to learn how to return to stock on my mac. Could someone explain step by step or refer me to where I can find a detailed explanation?

Q&A Section can help you.
It's quite easy.
Google provided images of everything, with a handy script to make them all go.
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html#mysid
Download the factory images package, command line into the directory, and run the script. "sh <scriptname>" should do it.
I forgot if it includes the tools or not, but worst case scenario, you'll have to get the android sdk downloaded also, then drop those images into and run the script from the platform-tools folder.
Try my guide. Its for the nexus s 4G but everything should be the same thing. Just make sure u put your phones stock img files into the adb folder.

I have posted this question in almost five forums without an answer. I posted the question where people are more computer and code savvy in hope someone wouldn't mine explaining what to do. I thought I might find someone here who would help.

Five other forums are not what they are talking about. On XDA, you are in a sub-forum of Samsung Galaxy Nexus, for only development. You will not be received well here.
Go Here and repost: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1431
Thats Galaxy Nexus Q&A
This URL is for the list of subforums in nexus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1336
And this is the forum sticky in this forum you should have read before posting:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400919
Which says, don't post in this forum, there is a forum for posting.
EDIT:
I was bored so i looked around for you, in the Galaxy Nexus General thread (you've posted there before), at the top, there is a sticky called "NEXUS STICKY | USEFUL INFO", in there is this url with instructions for OSX: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366806

It doesn't matter if you posted your question 235,653,966 times somewhere else. Questions do not belong in the development section.

Spot on! I'm posting your link, everywhere I had gone for help. I didn't get the help I needed, but I did get a lot of views. I know I'm not alone. This may help eliminate others from posting for assistance of this kind, in this forum. Thank you for your generosity of spirit!
To the XDA mall cops, relax your nerve. Move on there's nothing happening here.
Say??
How's your Christmas?
Oops, got nothing to do with development.
As far as I'm concerned, this thread is closed. Cheers!

Actually, you'll probably encourage more people to ask the wrong questions in the wrong place without looking for answers first. The answers you seek were already all over this nexus forum, had you looked and read everything you were told to read, you would have found it.
And had you posted in the section FOR questions & answers, you would have gotten an answer much faster, and with far less hate.
Hey guys I'm new to the HTC World and I just need to know how to root it, I have a samsung captivate glide I rooted that but I know this is different, I currently right now thinking of getting Jellybean on My EVO, so could you tell me what's the best one on here? And point out any Threads that explain rooting the EVO? Thanks You.

You can start your search for info HERE.
And when you are done reading that you can try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473373 . Which is currently the thread right below this one. There's probably literally hundreds of threads here on rooting. You have to read...especially the stickies.

From my Research There is no method to root Jellybean on Mac. The method above is for ICS.
You clearly missed this in your research, which should work on any platform you can get Heimdall 1.4-rc1 running on (and yes, it is buildable for OS X).
I clearly did. Thank you for your response, but it seems a bit over my head.I will wait for an easier less risky ( for a lack of a better phrase) procedure.
i agree i just tried 5 different versions of mac rooting and none worked.. all failed and couldnt detect my phone..
wine didnt work
i dont have boot camp or a mac..
i tried heimdall and onin or whatever thats called.
Need a bit of help..... I rooted my phone and now I'm trying to get my phone as a hotspot. Problem is... Every app I tried to use in the app store doesn't work. And if I can get one to work, I can't get any devices to find my phone hotspot.
Sorry if I posted in the wrong section..... I'm a noob to the rooting process and to this site
You can find that info in the Sprint Galaxy S3 FAQ.
You haven't searched.

Now, depending on what software your on, crawjr over in the dev section has came up with zip files to allow use of the native stock tethering app. Im on the MD4 software right now and I use the native hotspot all the time.
All you have to do is zip it using CWM or TWRP...easy as that.
here is the link:
