[Q] i747z. HELP!! - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Help.. I am new member flashed the i747z rom this the only page I can post on. I LOST my root. It has supersu installed but not working. How do I fix it.

Can you link to what you flashed?
If it was stock firmware you'll have to reroot. SuperSU might still be there if you didn't factory reset, but it'd just be the app.

That is the name of the rom I flashed. Ugh man what can I do . I actually liked this rom.

Not sure what happened then. Try to reroot using Towelroot.

Can I just flash root in odin. Will I brick my phone trying to root it. Cause I have clock work but not root.
Edit: I tried towelroot. It says I SHOULD ALREADY HAVE ROOT. Smh.

Go to /system/xbin and check if you have the su binary there.
If not, uninstall SuperSU and try again. If it is there try flashing the SuperSU update zip. You can find the link to it in chainfires thread.
You can root other ways, but the above two are the methods I prefer.

Thanks, I just don't know how to uninstal supersu.

Sorry. I was think about earlier when I though it was left over on the user data partition.
Download the zip linked above and flash in recovery. Should take care of it for you.

I deleted SU from romtoolbox and reflashed it. When I leave recovery everytime it says may lose root select to keep it. I still don't have root. Can someone get the dev to come to the thread. I am junior and can't post on development thread.

You can always pm him, but I doubt he will be able to help much more than anyone else. I'm not sure what's going on, but I don't believe it to be the ROMs fault. But it is an older ROM... What is your current base firmware/bootloader build? Open terminal emulator and enter this to find out....
getprop ro.bootloader
I would also suggest considering a different ROM. It appears that it is no longer supported by anyone, and there are several more current ones you can use. Depends on what your base firmware is though.

It'll have to be stock recovery for it to even download to the phone I'm pretty sure.
Only a few options I can think of.
Get a stock VLALE6 recovery and install it.
Flash the stock FW and then update.
Or just flash the updated stock FW.
Has it already downloaded the ota?
It should be in /cache/fota/ if it has. It'll be update.zip.
If it did, I can help you get it installed as is. Make a copy of the update.zip if you can btw.

If you want you can try using Mobile Odin. Download the LE6 FW and choose to install it in Mobile Odin. You can deselect everything but recovery and flash. Then you should be able to get the ota.
You could also pull recovery.img from the FW re-tar it and flash with pc odin.

Always good to have another resource, but two things real quick...
He can't use this FW. Its for the T999 but since he's on Videotron he will almost certainly have the model T999V.
It does not say what build either the FW or the Recovery are. I'm guessing they are both the original build UVALEM, but it really should specify.
Thanks anyway man.
@OP
If you do have the T999V like I suspect, use the links I gave you a couple posts up.

Its hard to say, I rooted my phone successfully, then using Odin i tried to flash a rom using a guide i found now Im stuck with this.
I was hopeing to put lighting rom on or something "fast"
So after you rooted it did you boot it up and it worked? What kind of file was the rom that you were trying to flash using odin? You should install a custom recovery, I prefer twrp and it's very easy to install. And what is this lighting rom? Never heard of it
And what guide did you follow to flash a rom in odin?

You may need to try and use odin to put the stock firmware back on and root it again. I don't think you can flash zip files using odin. You use a custom recovery. Search YouTube on how to root your phone and install a recovery. If I understand you right, you rooted it and immediately tried to install a zip file using odin which you can't do.

This thread has the factory firmware with root already in it. That should work. Follow the instructions and make sure it boots up before flashing any roms. Then search on how to install a custom recovery, how to make a backup, and how to flash a new rom. There are plenty of directions or there and resources to help. And YouTube really helps.

Use motochopper, it only takes around two to three minutes total, and it leaves you with stock recovery in case you need to go back for waranty purposes, motochopper also does not trip the flash counter, or change the system binary to custom. besides that with the T999L you dont need a custom recovery as the stock recovery has adb sideload support( see Edit at the Bottom For further citation), you just wont be flashing any custom roms until we get some odin roms built, personally I wouldn't flash any custom rom until DocHoliday77 has a true stock odin built, and that won't be until we can get our hands on the stock firmware, which won't happen until the T999L gets an update or at least until sammy releases the firmware, which is pretty much the same time.
EDIT:
after modding a few system files, and getting stuck in a boot loop @ the T-Mobile splash screen, i have found that in fact you don't need a custom recovery for anything but flashing custom Roms/Kernels, the stock recovery not only supports the new Adb Sideload function, the dept of adb support seems to be full adb support all the way down to shell support as i was able to use the following to delete the modded system files and get my device back and running from the recovery menu (no options selected)
adb devices
adb shell
su
rm /system/framework/multiwindow.jar
rm /system/framework/multiwindow.odex
i was allowed to use the rm function of the shell to delete the two files i added to the system/framework folder.

Yes/no if you flash a custom rom you will have to flash a custom recovery to do so, which means you will lose your stock recovery, Docholiday77 is currently working on making all the data we pulled from my T999L compatible with odin, which once its done you won't have to worry, but if you flash custom recovery, custom rom at this stage, you will be essentially locked out of your warranty until we have everything ready for odin, also we just pulled all the info for rom development just about a week ago so I doubt anyone has really had the time, or resources to build a custom rom specifically for the T999L which means you will be flashing at the risk of paid Samsung factory repair if it soft bricks, I'm not sure but I think doc has enough on a rom now to help you out if you brick with cwm or twrp, and with the stock adb sideload support you might be able to push the stock recovery we pulled but you should definitely ask doc for specifics as to what he has to help you if something doesn't go right with a custom rom.

CM added 'asserts' to the updater script that checks what version of firmware you are running. Older firmware was becoming buggy forcing him to do this. Since the t999l is so new it just hasn't been added to be allowed.
You can edit it so it either has your build in the script, or remove the checks all together.
I can tell you how in a bit if no one else does.

Root for Build number M919UVUEMK2?

Buddy of mine wants me to root his device if possible.
New to rooting the Samsung devices (HTC guy here). I've rooted the OG Evo, 3vo, Evo 4G LTE, and the One. So I know what I'm doing from that stand point.
My question is, will root for any M919 work for this device or is there a specific root method to use?
Sorry, if this has been answered before - trying to figure out where to head from here.

Running into a problem. Flashed a Google edition rom, mistakenly on the Stock rom Partition of the device. Phone didn't boot, stupidly forgot to make a nandroid.
Computer can't find the device in ADB and Mount USB storage isn't working in recovery. I can get to stock recovery and push the ROM but it's not accepting the update file.
Any ideas?
You can try flashing the stock odin image that is not rooted.

Where can I find that?
Sorry, I ****ed up and he's getting pretty worried - and rightly so.
Have you tried just doing a factory reset and rebooting it?
Here is the link: https://www.copy.com/s/hzfaqBpWhinn/M919UVUEMK2_M919TMBEMK2_TMB.zip
I am not a hundred percent sure that this will keep the knox at 0, and I do not hold responsibility for anything you do to your or anybody else's electronic device.

That's fine. I can get ADB to work in stock recovery but it aways aborts installation after signature verification.
Trying the zip you linked just now.
Ok, got it back to stock.
Whew.
Now to try it all again with out screwing it up.

Keep losing root access

I am on 4.3 Android Touchwiz, whenever I restart my phone it keeps losing root access what could be the reason? I rooted using Chainfire ODIN way.
What version of SuperSU is installed?
Try flashing 1.94 or 2.00 from the link in my signature.

The latest version of SuperSU is 2.02. You need to open it and update the su binary and disable knox..have you done that?
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
2.01 and 2.02 have issues, especially with updating the binary. You lose root completely. Until a fix is found I don't recommend using above v2.00.

Hi doc I tried the update on my phone but the loss of su binary detection problem still happens.
I discovered the su binary is still present/installed in /system/xbin folder but is not being executed by superSU after reboot/power on. I cheackes the file permissions they are correct. Im still trying to find the problem hope to solve it soon.
Did you try v1.94 or 2.00?

Yes I did they also have the same results.
Is there a way to log the boot to see if something is happening to cause the su binary to be ignored?
if you have twrp recovery , under 'advanced' is option to copy log to SD. not sure if boot-log would be in there , but maybe worth a shot. (?).
err on the side of kindness
Yeap I am having issue with this too now.. i tried 1.94 SuperSU still same . infact SuperSU 1.94 stuck on Loading forver.

I had the same issue and a fresh install of root66 was only solution.

Im currently using root66 I have not used anything else
here's a update
Hi guys ok so im using a insecure TW kernel and no longer have any problems. This is jpeg from root checker
It shows that there is /system/bin/su simlinked to /system/xbin/su unlike the jpegs in my previous post they show only /system/xbin/su no simlink. So I have narrowed the problem down to 1. Su binary installed but incorrectly configured 2.SE enforcement denies executing SU requests during boot. 3. Busybox,su, and init/init.d configuration error or being ignored/denied by root/system requests.
Please let me know if im on the right track and any tips on making a tmobile insecure kernel instead of using the AT&T kernel I am hoping to build a rom/kernel for the sgh-t999l lte s3 thats based on the LTE firmware.
Thanks everyone.
I think I've got T999V 4.3 and 4.4.2 kernels on my computer. What do you need? 4.4.2 I'm guessing?
