the rooting process was fairly easy so something similar would be great....thanks in advanced
I have exactly the same problem and any help is much appreciated :good:
update
Just noticed that freegee has been updated and it has now TWRP 2.6.3.3 instead of 2.6.3.0, hopefully that is one step closer to freedom :laugh: I don't see any loki support yet though.
I don't use your device but using simple logic, I will try to help. Just go to playstore and download the romanager if you want cwm or goomanager if you want twrp, which by far the best recovery. But If your device isn't officially supported, then I,suggest you to search your device development forum for unofficial builds. The devs usually provide installation guides.

Here's what I did to root mine yesterday and install a new Rom.
Only took a little bit of searching.
First you have to make sure you have the latest ota update from asus
version (8.6.5.19)
Then root using the method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1345049
Then install cwm recovery using method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346180
I also installed the following to make it simple to reboot to recovery:

then you can install a Rom of your choice
Worked easy as pie for me anyway
I have searched all over but have not found an easy way to unroot yet though, but i am sure there is a method.
Anybody?
Thanks ..

The answer to unrooting has been posted in one of the 2 threads you linked on xda
thx mr frog
found it now
I would post this under development, but I need 10 posts to do that. So I hope someone will look here to help me out.
So I got the new update yesterday. I have nothing against the stock rom, But it broke my tethering app. I found a way to root my S3. [GUIDE] Root for Jelly Bean OTA ***UPDATED*** - xda-developers
No problem there. I was looking to install a version of Paranoid Android, But using Goomanager this was not an available rom. (Is there one for the S3) I tried a few other roms and they all looked kind of chunky to me. A few had a flicker effect when you went to the home screen (aokp milestone 1 and bean)
Well now i went the route of http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...-back-clean-factory-stock-update-10-23-a.html And I am back to Factory fresh rom with an unlocked boot loader. If I were to root the factory rom and leave it what would be the effects in the long run, and is there a costume factory rom (Jelly bean) that would solve my problem...
Thanks
Well first, this shouldn't be posted in development because you're nitty releasing anything. So this Is the right spot.
Second, I'm not sure what you're looking for under original development you'll find the AOKP for us. If you want stock jelly bean that logs like AOSP check out beans build 6

Well I guess I would have liked to post in the thread that had the information in the first place. The thread is where he explained the rooting procedure that was not working for me. All steps worked except the last one. So I have to try to ask my questions over here.
Second, Now that I am back to stock rom I just wanted to see if anyone could answer my question about rooting and leaving it...
Third... Is there a paranoid android available for S3
Gotcha! Guess I misunderstood where you wanted to post, my bad. Then rooting and leaving it is fine, no long term effect. I run stock rooted all the time...until I get bored. Also, here us the official AOKP

Thanks for the reply's So what you are saying is I can run stock root until there is another update and the worst that will happen is it will break my root?????
Like I said I like how stock functions, but it broke my tethering app. I am still on the unlimited data plan and spent 700.00 for the S3 so i could stay there. kind of a waste of cash now that Foxfi wont work. If I can root then I can use open garden.
If your into the programing part. When using oden to root what does this do..VRALEC.bootchain.tar and then they have you do this one at the end.VRBLK3_Bootchain.tar
If I get answers for these I do have one more that I will post later....
Thanks again

Yes you can stay stock rooted and if you use voodoo ota keeper you may even keep root after updates.
The reason you have to flash the old insecure boot chain is so you can unlock your boot loader and install recovery, so that you can then root. The only reason you flash the new one at the end is so that to your boot chain matches your ROM. The last party is optional, but it just makes since to have as much matching as possible.

That is great..now to my last question..(a few more like this and I can post directly to the guys thread)
When doing this step I am using TWRP.
Step 4 - Rooting Your Device and Unlocking Your Bootloader
Quote:
Using your custom recovery flash the download you chose above from Step 1 (#3)
Upon exiting your custom recovery to reboot first time, you will be asked if you want to "Disable recovery flash", you MUST select Yes
After reboot, your ROM will now be fully rooted, have a custom recovery, and/or your bootloader unlocked as well
after flashing SuperSU + Unlocked Bootloader I go to reboot but it does not ask about the Disabling of the recovery flash. Should I be worried or should I maybe flash back the Factory bootloader with ODEN after I am rooted??
Sadly, this seems to be the most active thread for Paranoid Android. Currently that thread's original Dev is MIA and the last build he made was based on 2.54 (current PA is 2.99). Another Dev ported 2.99 but people are reporting issues with it. I ran the 2.54 one for a couple of weeks and it wasn't terrible.

I'm not sure if twp had that option. If you can reboot into recovery after booting up your phone you're good

It's been successfully rooted with POOT.
It has also been rooted via CWM by Area51 Here for CWM and then Here for Root! I did find some ROM development going on at Area51 as well here. Area51's CWM does not appear to play nice with any phone rooted with Poot however so it's best to install CWM from Area51 first and then use their root method.

The root method used at A51 is out-of-date, and can't be updated. Therefore, you'll continuously receive an update notification and won't be able to stop it.

Not True! All you have to do is just not install the update when it boots you into CWM. This will be fixed when they complete the ROM they're working on. I don't get update reminders after accepting the first one and just not installing it once in recovery mode at the install screen!
My roomate just got this phone, gonna root it for her. Thanks for posting methods.

You might want to wait for Area51 to complete their first ROM for the phone. Currently it has an annoying update that keeps trying to install over the rooted stock OS that will break root if you install it. Of course you can just keep clicking on accept and then selecting NO when you get to the install update screen in CWM like I do, but it's an annoyance.

Is there any roms for the Samsung Galaxy Centura on StraightTalk that is Android version 4.1, 4.2 or above?
Not yet. Something that Samsung broke in the kernel is preventing the ROMs from booting up.

Did you rename the backup? If it has spaces, it will cause that error.

Your phone has to be rooted to install any os on it. I could be wrong but my android device required it
Well to start your phone was never rooted so its not a "re-root" or anything like that. You just need to simply root your phone & install a custom recovery. Im sure you can find those instructions googling or here on xda
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Ide recommend a stock rom like cleanrom and I think there are a few on xda.
Until you get used to recovery and the other aspects of rooting. It gets a little complex when you first start down this path. Be careful and always follow all instructions.

Hi guys,
I have searched everywhere for updating twrp (how to)... But every time I get directed to links showing me how to download and install twrp and not updating it.
I would just like to know (in layman/caveman terms) how to know whether a newer version of twrp is out and how to update my current version to the latest version.
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Check the TWRP website, it will show which is the latest version for your device there. (Google it) the instructions are on the page that allows you to install the recovery from fastboot. That's as simple as I can describe it, this is the only real and safe way. There are apps on the Market that can update TWRP, but they can also mess up with flashing the recovery, so I don't recommend that route. Good luck.
Edit : I'm feeling generous here's the link
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/205
Everything you need is on that page.

Updating it is the same as installing it for the first time. If you read the sticky threads we suggested you read last week, you'd know this.
