Best root method - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I've found two methods on this forum for rooting my VZW GS3, the Casual root method and then there's that Toolkit found in the stickied thread that does root, recovery, roms etc etc. Which one is the best route to go for rooting.

Casual is newer, stick with that.
There's also a rooted stock Rom out there, just flash in odin and you should have root. But it'll wipe all of your information.

Rooting questions

I read of a couple ways to root this device. Is the skyrocket easy root the best way to do it?

Yes it is if your phone is on android version 2.3.5 it will not work with 2.3.6. If your on 2.3.5, and you use this method. Just download rom manager from the market and choose to install cwm recovery for the tmobile galaxy s2 with it, and you will be set
Thanks man

Can sgsg4 unroot itself

I did a factory reset cause some issues where occuring, now none of my root apps are working, SU is still there but it fails to get itself root access when it updates. Do i need to re root? With super one click?

Use root checker to confirm?
You can also see if super user app is there in your applications...
ofcourse you can check that by downloading root checker app from play store.

Just reflash.
Like lumin says reflash. Use the second link in his signature.
However what rom are/were you on?If it is not a stock based rom dont use the reset feature within the phone use the one in recovery.
Thanks lumin you continue to be a trusted advisor. I flashed
a stock gingerbread from lumin last week.

So since i'm about to flash i'm a little interested in a different ROM. Are there any perfect roms for this device?

Perfect is a hard statement to make. Any of the ICS flavors are pretty stable there are bugs but even stock roms have bugs. I think barebones by antonx is a good one and VB by FB is too.
Is it add simple as installing stock GB was using heimdall? I've read good things about VB would you possibly post a link? Most I click on are dead/inoperable...

I answered this question in the stupid questions thread, where he asked it again. Posting the same Q's in multiple threads won't help you get a faster answer.

Actually I think it did. But since your so quick to make BASELESS accusations I will explain. I'm new and didn't really know where to put it. After my first post I decided it fit better elsewhere. Tasks for inquiring jacka**

Had that problem before u just reflash the ROM. As long as u can still go to cwm recovery
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
It un rooted itself again! Wth. I dont have cwm. How do I get that?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Run Gremlin Remover and go from there. You will have root and CWM to flash the ROM you want.

I'm not sure that I understand the cwm. Click work mod? I put that on my CPU and tether it with the market app? Sorry this is still very new to me...

[Help] rooting w/o a pc

Help I'm trying to root or add CM10 to my Verizon GS3 SCH-I535 but I don't have a computer is there a way
I don't know of a way to root without a pc. Casual and Odin both require a pc

I think you are out of luck if you are on a verizon device because they come with a locked bootloader. If it was for another carrier it is possible.

This MAY work on Verizon, but not ENTIRELY sure. The guy who made the thread did say it worked on Sprint and T-Mobile S3's. But this post is all that I know of that provides a rooting from phone method.

Mobile Odin requires you to already have root access to function, so unfortunately he couldn't use Mobile Odin to flash a rooted stock ROM in this case.
