Thanks Worked perfectly fine, i am now Rooted.
But i am back to Square 1 - LINK2SD is not working, it says its not supported by my device, because my device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage.
:crying:
EDIT: I bought a Class 10 - 32 GB SD for the phone, so i can move big games to SD.

Thanks for the link but supersu reinstalled itself after reboot
I was just wondering does anyone experience the same thing-supersu wont update via play store..strange
1 yes flashing to root device with this file will trigger the flash counter which will indicate unofficial fw is installed after that samsung wont let you get ota updates
2 no but triangle away needs root to work
3 triangle away will reset the flash counter so you can get ota updates unfortunately on our device the counter goes back to 'unofficial' after a reboot

I don't understand why the phone can not update Superuser from Market. It happen to me too.
I just have NOTE on post #1.
I have to manual update, use Root Explorer rename the newest apk file to Superuser.apk and then set permision rw-r-r for it, after that move it to /system/app overwrite the old one.
Can you please share the latest supersu

Here is the latest Superuser. apk v1.51
And now my Galaxy Mega 5.8 (GT-I9152) is rooted.
100% working.
Now we just need CyanogenMod !
Official ROM is useless.
Even Macromax can move stuff to SD.
No USB Mass storage.
I know there are lots of softwares for all this, but one CyanogenMod can solve all the issues.
Great

You might have to remove your battery too, not necessary, but better
And SuperSU is superuser.SuperSU is made by another dev, that's all

You unfortunately cannot use link2sd with stock ROM
The other thing is that even a swap file is a bad idea on the 5839I
If it is on stock ROM , bricked one already.
Dont think I will worry about it again but you should try root validator instead of
Root checker I think some apps only like superuser and dont always recognize
SuperSU you can get a flashable zip from chainfire's website if the zip at the start
Of thread wont work, easiest way to check for root is probably to try and install
Busybox by the way,
One more thing, there is a file In system/etc that prevents apps to sd by
Deleting the apps to sd files at every reboot, could this be your problem?
Samsung were a bit naughty about things when they set the
firmware up
You can delete it at your own risk, did it myself last time around but to be honest I have some fifty odd
apps installed and after that the phone lacks internal memory anyway, samsung
Havent actually done too bad a job once you get rid of the added bloatware
I hope this info helps, and on stock ROM you also have to reflash CWM everytime you wish to backup or restore through ROM manager,
Good luck sounds like you might just be frustrated over nothing, lets hope so.
Ki113Ro
have realized since last post on this subject that as long as you don't try and instal apps 2sd script you CAN install link2sd and its working i also now realize that current kernel which is called Redbend UA has ext3/ext4 type support and since succesful install of link2sd have freed up maybe 40mb of internal memory.
I also wou.ld recommend Imbawind Adrenaline boost script v3 search xda for link to download. next thing is to deodex ROM so i can apply new jelly bean style i think. I have debranded ROM after CWM backup so can restore if needed .
Thanks to all the developers and people brave enough to risk bricking there devices because of all these people devices are getting better and
thanks to samsung and htc etc for listening to the consumer and making sure the changes others make are streamlined into there ROMs the new galaxy is much quicker than the old one Thank you.
Thanks have to go also to Google and everyone connected with the Android OS
Open source rocks big time.

First off my English isn't perfect so its hard for me to understand how some things work.
I have a galaxy SIII I9300 4.1.1.
Can you upgrade a galaxy S3 4.1.1 to 4.2.1?
I want CM 10.1 on my galaxy S3 but i need version 4.1.1.
I once tried putting CM 10.0.0 on it but it wouldn't work, So i searched it up on google and it said i need a dutch version of Cm10.0.0 or something( My phone is dutch)( I am dutch )
If someone can help me i would realllllllyyy appreciate it. i have been youtubing and googling for a long time but cant find anything that really helps me.
So if you're that one nice guy that like to help me! Leave a post with your skype and we will talk!
Since you have an I9300, you need to be in that section. This is for the Tmobile US version T999. I will move your thread and hopefully someone in your section will be able to help you.
Good luck.

If you want to install cgm 10.1 on your S3 you can download the zip file of the latest version of the Rom and if you have already rooted your S3 you have to install that zip using the recovery.
If you haven't rooted your s3 you have first of all to root it.
Where did you read that you need a particular version of the original rom to install cgm?

as i said, that didnt fix it and i dont know how to. i need to talk with some other people about it all. cwm is fully usable right now, the only thing you are missing out on is being able to install from rom manager, which isnt that big of a deal.

terminal emulator
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
if it gives an error about recovery.img its because that isnt where it is saved.

If I root the Grand 2, will I be able to go back to stock rom, if needed, for warranty purposes?
Does this phone have the KNOX?
My Grand 2 is just 5 days old and already had got it upgraded by connecting to Kies3.
I need to root as I have to use the reverse tethering.
please help me with the answers

Were you able to find a way to root G530az? I too cannot get it to work.
Yes I was......
Finally i rooted my new Grand Prime successfully 
I so desparately wanted to root my new Grand Prime so I tried rooting by myself as it wasn't available by chainfire.
I haven't done much here, I just modified few files of CF-Auto-Root which was made for different device by chainfire.
Couldn't attach the file here as the size is 44MB
Download it from here: h t t p : / / d - h . s t / AWH
(remove spaces in the above link)
sad i'm not allowed to post links here yet 
The zip archive contains:
Odin v3.07
2_cache_recovery_stock_mohan_sm-g530h.md5
1_cfroot_sm-g530h_mohan.tar.md5
Rooting method is simple.
Boot device into download mode and flash the first file: 2_cache_recovery_stock_mohan_sm-g530h.md5
Wait for the device to reboot and again boot into download mode and flash the second file: 1_cfroot_sm-g530h_mohan.tar.md5
Now after the device has finished reboot you can see SuperSU installed. Open it and it will ask to disable knox notification... Press Cancel.
If SuperSU asks for su binary update, just press the Normal button.
Hope this helps someone 
Edit:
Sorry guys, something went wrong while renaming the flash files. I have updated the above link which now works... Thanks...

I just rooted my G530AZ 4.4.4 with CF-Auto-Root-fortuna3g-fortuna3gxx-smg530h.tar.md5. Worked flawlessly only took about 10 seconds in Odin.
Has anyone checked the original posters claim? There have been proven reports of Kingroot and other APKs stealing data like IMEI and more and transmitting back to their servers for malicious activities.

Where is download link for KingRoot.exe??
Does it work?
... I've tried this on my SM-G530W ... it doesn't seem to affect anything. I can't read what it says and all it shows is a "no wifi" sign. I've tried flashing some files and I tried EVERY SINGLE root application. When I flashed those files my phone got hard bricked and I had to buy a new Samsung Grand Prime. I still can't figure out a way to root this thing!
