4.3 root - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys I'm new to the GS3 and I recently updated my phone to 4.3 and I wanted to root it but there's nothing I can find to root the phone. All I can find is for 4.0.4-4.1.2

From what I've been reading you can root but I'm not sure if you can root once your on 4.3. Custom roms aren't currently available once you take the OTA or there is a good possibility you can hard brick your phone

For now I just want to root the device and run the stock ROM. All I want to do is clean up the ROM like get rid of the stupid WiFi notification and remove bloatware etc...

Yep I know that. Never been a fan of flashing ROMs anyway. I'm fine with stock rooted. It runs better and I get amazing battery life with the zerolemon
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46510260#post46510260 post 2751

I followed the steps and was able to get root on 4.3 just fine as well. Thanks to everyone for helping me with that.
I do have a question....it might very well be a dumb question but I'm asking anyway,
I've installed Titanium backup and I have the update.zip that I created prior to reverting to stock and then taking the OTA. From what I understand I can't use custom recovery, which was the only way I knew how to flash that update.zip to restore my apps+data. So, how do I flash this update.zip with root on 4.3? Is this still possible?
Thanks again to all for the help.

Saferoot worked for me (its a method designed for galaxy s4). Although I wouldn't recommend it. It may or may not have been the cause of a hard brick for me, but I tried unlocking the bootloader after using it, which is probably what threw it.

No. Once you took the ota you lost the ability to flash other ROMs. Unless one of the Dev's cracks the lock bootloader or finds a way around.

Would you mind posting some directions on how to get the Wanamlite Rom working? I tried flashing it earlier and got some some message about running software unauthorized by att, but I was able to boot into recovery and revert back to a backup.
Anyway to get autocorrect?
I thought international rom had it on the sammy keyboard..

Because he probably flashed with OUDHS which auto-loki'd it for him. It's not just ROMs that are compatible. Remember, it's the same hardware.

No reason why not. But twrp won't auto-loki right? If the ROM you flash is packaged with a kernel, you'll need to Loki patch it or flash that new Loki zip I saw afterwards. Then flash faux. On second thought, you probably wouldn't even need the Loki zip if you flash faux immediately after flashing the ROM.

It'd be cool if someone did port it, you could try to do it using hero's guide if you want.
Hopefully we'll be getting our own leak pretty soon, or an official release next month.

Most the apks needed to decompile to port are incomplete on that leak. They are missing resources and can't be recompiled.

They won't work.
If you're on 4.3 you're stuck on 4.3 firmware, no amount of flashing old firmwares and repartitioning can fix this.
That first article is simply wrong, you can't downgrade to 4.1.2 using that method on the sch-i535.
