Hey all,
I have just bought a Samsung Galaxy S2, And was wondering what Rooting is? is it like Jailbreaking. And is it worth doing?
Also is there anyway i can unlock the phone to any network from the "3" Network for free?
Any help will be much appreciated as I am new to this hahaa
Thanks,
Shaun

Hmm ... I found a rooting thread ([Tutorial] Rooting the Sprint GalaxyS3 the Easy Way), but it is closed as it seems that this method no longer works.
There a user ("Thecrazyone1") of the same device reported taht he could successfully root. Maybe you can ask (PM) him, how he got it rooted.
Here is the general rooting link for the Sprint S3: How to root the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III ... which seems to be very similar to your device.
You can also check the Sprint Galaxy S3 FAQ updated 5/27/2013, there is a linbk to a video guide for rooting.
Here is a thread about your device: S3 straight talk verison rooting/general questions..
And here is another one: [Q] How To Root the Straight Talk SCH-S968C Samsung Galaxy S III.
Maybe you can get better answers there.
Good luck !
Thread closed and thank you.
Happy new year !
Hi, I've been searching the whole the web for rooting a at&t samsung galaxy s5 android version 5.0 for a week now. I haven't found a single way. All methods for rooting any other model works. But none have succeeded with the at&t model. I heard you can downgrade it if you have 5.0 but it can brick your phone. I wanted to try it but I didn't want to take the risk. If anyone knows a way to root the at&t samsung galaxy s5 please help me and others tying to find the answers. Thank You.
Duplicate thread. Please see my response from here:

Hello, thank you for using XDA Assist.
THIS ROOT METHOD is also compatible with your device. Any further assistance just ask in that thread.

Hello everyone!
I have a Galaxy Ace 3 LTE model and I want to use it with another carrier, but it's locked. Does anyone know how I can unlock this phone?
I have tried some methods, especially universal Galaxy unlockers, but these didn't worked. Maybe it's because I have CM 11 on this phone. Can someone help me or post a link with a working method?
Thanks in advance
