[Q] Rooting without computer? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just bought a SGS3 and want to root it (adaway & other little goodies). No custom rom yet (wanna play with stock). However I'm computer-free (no access to any Pc/mac/linux) for 2-long-days. Any possibility to root sgs3 only with the phone (&internet)?

Download cf root and flash using mobile Odin. I think you can get it free off xda or pay for it from the app store. Follow normal rooting guide except use mobile Odin when it says normal odin. I did it that way.

As far as I know you need to be rooted to be able to use mobile odin. Hence will not work without root.

No, but readme
Read the link that veyka mentioned, quite comprehensive.
CF-Root is what I've used, its not difficult but ofcourse make sure u backup and follow the steps correctly.
There is another method using a program called One Click Root, google it. i tried it worked and rooted and automatically installed superuser, but it was weird when i rebooted my phone it was not rooted!, so i used CF-Root method.
I'm only guessing here sorry.
Update.zip from the stock recovery. Never made one to try if it can be done.
Are you not able to use Odin via your computer for the 1st root flash?
If you can then you can use mobile Odin for flashing without the computer after that. Eg. Download Odin compatible firmware/kernel/modem etc directly to your phone then flash using mobile Odin. No pc involved.
Good luck.

At the moment I can't use a PC, maybe in a week or 2 (if I'm lucky 1). That's why I searched for an app. Nothing worked right now.
I appreciate all of your help!

Can I use an update.zip on a stock ROM?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Its been a while since ive seen the stock recovery but I believe you can only use an update.zip with stock.
It's got to be created the right way though. Can't just rename a zip to update.zip.

Help please

Hello, today I bought my galaxy s3 and really loved the ics software it had on it, but I took the jellybean update and do not like it. Is there a way to downgrade it back to ics? Couldnt find a tutorial anywhere. I just want a stock ics. No root or anything. Hate all you want. I like it. Thanks in advance.

REPLIES ARE TOTAL NONSENSE .
You dont need root to revert flash stock ICS via Odin .
Root will be removed on stock flash .
But you are in the wrong forum and firmware from this I9300 forum will brick a SPH-L710.
see sticky top of the page .

Can I use triangle away to fully reset my flash counter to zero? Im running a stock ROM 4.1.2 From Spain (orange provider) Jellybean? Or does it only work with ICS?

See screenshot for more info

i've used it before without issues, but i've tried 4.1.1, and 4.1.2 odin flash, plus CF root on my i317 and cannot get TA to attempt to wipe counters. I open the app, tap "reset flash counters", download the add-on, agree to warnings, and nothing. no reboot, or anything.
Any ideas what would cause this?
See if yoir phone is supported with triangle away

Where you downloaded it from?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
i got my firmware files from sammy, downloaded TA from play store, and i've had my CF root for a while (maybe old version?). i have noticed that adb works, but adb reboot bootloader just reboots, and no fastboot commands work while in download/bootloader mode. that's never been an issue before, and i'm on a mac.
I can get all flags set back to official/normal, just can't get TA to reboot and attempt to wipe the counters.
does not work on my s2 i777 is there another way?

Hi
can you explain me more about these apps?
I know Tringle away it is for reset my flash counter right?
But for what this?
Someone told me that i can't use tringle away on android 4.3
