Need help with rooting and flashing custom roms. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I need help with rooting mu galaxy s3 international version. I managed to root it once also tryed to flash custom rom (I think i tryed flash CyanogenMod's custom rom with android 4.4). It failed and got my device soft bricked. I managed to fix it and now searching for help. I don't have alot of time so I would be really grateful if you could post a link. Also if you know any good android 4.4 custom roms with stock kernel, I would like to know.
Thanks in advance.

Here you are root 3D: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...3-07-2012-cf-root-6-4-supersu-cwm5-5-t1695238
After root, make a backup of efs folder and reset counter with triangle away.
I suggest you Imperium 3.0 with boeffla kernel

Thanks . I will have a look. Also maybe you know why it failed to install CyanogensMod's rom?

It's possible that you hadn't latest cwm and gave you error for this. Try with latest cwm or another recovery like philz or twrp.

[Q] Install Philz cwm6 on I9100G

Hii!! :laugh:
I hope I am not making an error by posting here, I am a little new to here so be king please :angel:
I just want to install Philz CMW6 on my I9100G so I can install a kitkat custom ROM; I have been facing problems with this, I tried many ROMs ( CM11 unofficial, SuperNexus, SlimRom, OmniROM .. ) but I failed everytime, I realized that my CWM was not suitable. So I started looking for it I found a good thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860 after installing the CWM it goes right installing ROMs but got stuck into bootloop.
So, if someone can give me the .tar.md5 file I can flash using Odin or maybe another thing to take care of.
Thank you
PS: I had CM 10.2
Running official stock ROM : JB 4.1.2

Try this steps:
1. Use the method in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365701) to flash JB stock + root. note that it's better to flash the kernel via recovery after it's on your external sd-card or sideload with adb. This way you don't get the triangle warning and no binary count.
2. Download the kitkat compatible CWM from here: (http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip)
3. Flash the CWM and reboot to recovery (advanced -> reboot recovery)
4. Flash your Kitkat rom (with all the necessary wipes of course )

I tried this but I got stuck on boot again, and knowing that the CWM that you gived don't work :/ ( my model is I9100G I think that this is the reason ).
I have read somewhere that maybe the wipe data / factory reset is the source of problem. I am not sure where I am doing wrong
thanks

Hi again!
I flashed stock ROM 4.1.3 and my phone's is going good. but I'm having troubles to go back to CM I don't see what the problem is but I think to change the phone, maybe it's enough for it

I am not able to root my i9300 on stock ROM 4.3

Hello,
I bought my SGS3 more than a year ago. It came with 4.0.4 (ICS), I inmediately changed the ROM to have a pure Samsung one (I live in Mexico, so I wanted to get rid of the TELCEL ROM). After some months I changed the ROM to Jelly 4.1.2 and I kept the phone with it.
I always have rooted my phone without any issues, in order to be able to make backups with "titanium backup" app, so everytime I change the ROM....I do first a backup and then I flashed, so I have to be able to root the phone in the next ROM.
I read about the 4.3 release in October 2012, but after a week I read that too many issues were going on.....so I decided to wait.
So finally, I saw XXUGMK6 from "samsung-updates.com" page and I downloaded it.
I researched a little bit about the official ROM and the version XXUGMK7 was released then, so I decided to change it with this version.
Once I flashed the phone with this ROM everything looked fine, so I proceed to "root" it using ChainFire procedure (CF-Auto-root), but I have not been able to do it!!
I already read a lot of threads looking for solutions, I followed the indications..........but it is not rooted.
I got the right Odin Version, the right ZIP for rooting (CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.zip)........followed the OP by ChainFire.....but it does not work.
So.....I humbly ask for help, I really do not want to go back on 4.1.2 because not been succesfull in rooting.
Regards,
Guile

[Q] Problems with flashing my I9300

Hello guys,
my name is Raphnika and I am complete new to this.
I've tried to flash my Samsung S3 with a custom ROM like the Pacman one.(KK 4.4 or something like that).
I was not able to install it on my device so I tried the Android Revolution HD ROM and that worked for me fine.
It seems like I am not able to flash any KK ROMs to my S3. I keep getting a Status 7 Error...
I googled it and tried many solutions but none of them worked. It might be to the fact that I am a complete noob to this.
I hope you guys can help me!
lots of greetings,
Raph

Problem with GT-I9305, Custom ROM and Bootloops

Hello guys!
I really need help.
A GT-I9305 makes strange problems. I can't flash any custom rom. It will never boot. Only with stock Samsung ROM's it works.
Tried to install many custom ROM's for the S3 and it ended with the same. Bootloop and my only help to get it work is with Samsung Kies...
Wiped Cache, factory reset etc... Nothing worked... It annoys me so please help!
Thanks

Sadly not.
I tried it with more kernels but nothing worked.
Does Knox has something to do with the bootloop's? (Stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat is working with stock kernel)
you have latest recovery ? older roms working for you ?
Every time the same result with twrp newest, twrp 2.8.7.0, cwm, philz.
Can't flash stock ROMs with Odin.

Amazing ! Thanks , That´s What I was looking for. I will follow those steps, I was stuck in the TWRP logo, it was like a loop and it didn´t continue with its options, I dunno why, but I m going to do it again by flashing with Twrp , .
Currently I´m using the latest Evolution rom but my cellphone is getting slow sometimes so Im gonna use another custom rom and test how it works .
Thanks again !
