[Q] Rooting Galaxy S3 running official Android 4.3 JB - General Questions and Answers

Hello all,
So, same as the title, I have wanted to root my Galaxy S3 running Android 4.3.
It is a factory unlocked device, and I am not bound to any contract/ISP/telco.
I have seen some posts in some blog that I can use Odin and CF-Auto-Root, but I am not sure if it will work or if it will add another brick in my house. I am also concerned on Samsung Knox and if anything unwanted happens if I root it.
Can anybody pinpoint me to a good tutorial here or anywhere?

[Q] Rooting Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 with 4.3 OTA Update

I used the Casual software to root my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3, and then took the OTA update for 4.3. In the thread in the development forum, the update says it's not compatible with 4.3. So my questions are these (I'm asking here, because I don't have enough posts to reply to that thread):
1. Is anyone working on Casual to get it to work with the OTA for 4.3?
2. If so, is there an ETA or status update on the project?
3. Does anyone have instructions to root this phone (without using Casual)?
Thanks, and have a great day.
Patrick.

[Q] Rooting Kitkat stock (OTA) – note 2 GT N7100

Hi
Sorry if there is a similar thread, kindly provide a link if it is available.
I am Completely a knoob when it comes to rooting, have my note 2 for almost 6 months now i am on stock 4.4.2 (OTA) with knox, can any one tell me how to root and take efs and imei backup ( or can it be done without rooting) as well as to not trip knox and if OTA can still be received.
Questions
1. Will tripping knox harm the phone (physical or brick it forever – where to check knox counter?), i don’t care about warranty as the phone is more than a year old now.
2. Does the WiFi get affected or any other problem.
I would also like to flash Note 3 kitkat (stock) with S5 Mod is there a clear way to do this. By the way i have not done rooting or flashed other ROM’s before ever. I have searched through the forum but very confused as most have already rooted the phones before.
Sorry to post such a big question really like my phone and can’t afford another for some time.
If someone can help me i would really appreciate it. Thanks In advance.

[Q] Rooting Galaxy S4 with CF-auto-root (Canada)

I couldn't find a solution too specific to my phone, but was mostly just wondering, Does anyone know if the newest CF-auto-root is compatible with a Canadian SGH-I337M; Ver 4.4.2; Baseband VLUFNE1 on the MTS network? if so, where is a safe download source of the .tar?
And if not if there is anything that is compatible? Keep in mind im not looking to flash custom roms, i essentially want root to use rooted apps and all the devince freedom that comes with it. essentially a basic root. Also Ive previously rooted my S2 and an old motodroid so theres no need to review the rooting process ive got that down.
Thanks, any and all advice is appreciated!

[Jailbreak]Root Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (Verizon- i925) - Root/Jailbreak/Recovery

It's 2016, and I need to know the truth about rooting the I925. I reset it to factory settings and here is what I have:
Model SCH-I925
Android Version = 4.1.2
Kernel Version 3.0.31-1481643
Build # JZ05454K.I925VRAMK1
Hardware Version I925.03
Is is possible to put Cyanogen on this?
I have tried several ways and the only successful way I have rooted it was King Root. But I was never able to get a recovery on there. I used Heimdall, according to the Cyanogen Website, with no success. I really thought CASUAL was the answer, but now I see that it doesn't work with the updated version. I need the pro on here to help me! I really want cyanogen on it! I am a newbie and using Windows on this..
Try the forum for your model .
I too fall into the same category and have not found a definite answer, has the MK1 stumped all who come against it? Or is root and unlocked b/l a trade secret? I have rooted many devices in my past from G1 to EVOs to newer devices and nothing has been more or less unknown around here like this device is....what gives??
What locked bootloader
Sent from my SM-N920C using XDA-Developers mobile app
It's hard to find a good how-to with this one it seems. There are many tutorials but usually for the other variants and not the Verizon one. The ones that seem to be for the right device use apps to install a recovery but the apps don't seem to support this model either.
I guess there is no luck for this tablet at all... I got it for cheap at this point (4 years after its release)! And there doesnt seem to be a way to even downgrade

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So this means there is no fix for Galaxy note 10.1 SCH-I925. Would you happen to know if Casual is available for this model somewhere in this forum. Thanks for your response. mariomr
No sorry no idea .
the only thing that is achieved is to root, unfortunately there is no way to unlock the bootloader to install TWRP
I also found the 4 stock files to recover by odin, but I did not verify it
sorry for my english
