Is there any way to unlock the bootloader with the 4.3 Update? Would love to install a rom, wish I never updated.

Basically no, you can install safestrap which is a workaround that only installs TouchWiz 4.3 roms. Check the sticky in the development section to learn about everything you can do and what you're limited to.

Actually one more question regarding this. Is there any way to get the old bootloader back? Basically is there ANY way that I can get CyanogenMod11 on this device after this update?
Thanks, sorry for the double reply.
I appreciate the help

Nope, there's no way to downgrade the baseband. You're stuck with what you have.

Brand New Warranty replacement S3 4.3 - Am I screwed?

So my last s3 stopped working and I got a new one sent via my extended warranty. Previously I had an unlocked bootloader and root running gummy 4.4 which was awesome! My new phone came stock with 4.3 touchwiz which I am reading might be bad news. So here are my questions:
1) Is there really no way to unlock the bootloader on 4.3?
2) What are my alternatives to installing custom roms?
3) Is safestrap a stable/safe option even though its in beta?
4) Can safestrap be reversed if a method for unlocking the bootloader is revealed?
5) Where can I find a rooting tutorial for 4.3? Can I lose root easily/ corrupt my phone if a Samsung update is applied?
6) Should I wait for a downgrade option? Slash is it supposedly possible (twitter update)?

As of this minute, one option: Saferoot then Safestrap.
3) Is safestrap a stable/safe option even though its in beta?

Yup. Read the replies in Safestrap if you need reassurance.
4) Can safestrap be reversed if a method for unlocking the bootloader is revealed?

Yup, you could even Odin flash VRUCML1 4.3 tar and be back to "normal" again. However, don't count on the 4.3 bootloader being unlocked. There's no guarantee anyone is even utilizing their time to find an exploit and its entirely possible no one is.
5) Where can I find a rooting tutorial for 4.3? Can I lose root easily/ corrupt my phone if a Samsung update is applied?

Read me. Use Saferoot, then SafeStrap. Yes, much worse could happen in a future update as well.
6) Should I wait for a downgrade option? Slash is it supposedly possible (twitter update)?

That's your call. It's possible, but whether it comes to fruition is entirely different.

I think flashing a custom kernel isn't suggested with SafeStrap. I don't know the specifics, maybe @BadUsername or someone else can expand on that? I thought I read that you are still running the stock kernel even if you flash a custom kernel when using SafeStrap. Someone was discussing this before but it was not explicitly proven they were in fact running the custom kernel.

Quantum Kernels huh. Not familiar with those kernels. Ill have to check them out. I would use the stock rom as well Im just worried about a random automatic update that would kill root and make my replacement phone even more useless than it already is without an unlocked bootloader. Do you know if there a way to disable the Samsung update center on the stock rom using root?

[Q] Verizon S3 SCH-i535 JSS15J.VRUCNC1 How to Root?

Hey Guys,
going nuts over here... Tried odin method to flash NasirTech's CF_AutoRoot, it failed with "Auth Failed" on Odin. Tried cubeuncube's saferoot, that also failed saying my kernel has been patched. Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to get root on my device?
Thanks,

From what I have read you need to odin back to the previous release (ML1 I believe). Current rooting approaches do not work on NC1. You should also be posting this in the questions forum, not in general...

Some users have reported that they are still rooted. I'm almost sure it's a very small percentage that took the NC1 update that are still rooted.
My gf keeps putting off the OTA for NC1 and I told her what the "So called" benefit of updating to it and she told me, well maybe I'll be going to Canada. I told her its Realistically not for us USA users anyways lol

He is not claiming he maintained root after updating to NC1, he it's claiming he used saferoot to gain root after updating to NC1. He is the only one I have ever seen who has said saferoot worked on NC1.

Ummm I wouldn't use an unreliable link. Just my personal opinion. You will hard brick if you attempt to flash anything other than a TW rom on the ML1 modem/rom. You have to flash back to ML1 from NC1 using Odin.

Question About Rooting 4.3 w/ NC1 Baseband

I have a friend that I've finally convinced to root his S3 that is on 4.3 with the NC1 baseband. What process do I need to follow to be able to do this for him? I won't have any problems with the steps, I'm just not sure where/how to proceed.

That is mostly correct. You can downgrade back to ML1 so you can root and run safestrap, but that's it. Trying to downgrade to anything before ML1 will brick your device.

My wife wouldn't let me root her S3, so she's locked up on the NC1 update. She loves the display on the Samsung, but she says Android is too complicated for her and she is always complaining she doesn't know how to use the phone. We are both eligible for upgrade so I'm considering trying to convince her we should upgrade - her to the iPhone5s and me to the S5. Just not sure I want the locked down bootloader. Need to get into a store to play with one.

Well, with the way phones are getting locked down especially on Verizon, it seems the whole rooting and romming scene is kind of shrinking. It's getting to the point if you don't buy a Nexus or developer edition phone, you're going to be stuck with stock.

This is my first time posting so I figured sharing my successful attempt to root using towelroot would be a good starting point..
I realize someone may have already beat me to it but I wanted to let ppl know you should be able to root using the awesome new app towelroot. Things to consider though.. I was on 4.3 ML1.. This was very exciting for me as my PC will not recognize my siii so the fact I was able to do this straight from the device itself is just great news.. Didn't think I could root without a PC.. Well, until now.. This is SO AWESOME! now to install some xposed mods . Happy rooting v

Not useless. Can root, remove bloat, use ad blocker, tether, some people are using xposed, etc. Just may not be able to run any custom ROMs yet. Safestrap may work to run custom ROMs, but I have not seen an NC1 kernel module. So you would not have WiFi running safestrap on NC1.

so i'm on the NC1 and i've rooted it sucessfully using another method and i was wondering if i use safestrap to use xposed will i have wifi issues?
or does installing another rom using safestrap kill the wifi?
final question: is safestrap the culprit for the wifi not working?

I've done this successfully however tethering is not working. Can anyone confirm? What do I need to do to get tethering working?

They will hardbrick if they attempt to install CWM or TWRP on TW 4.3 or KitKat firmware. Hasn't worked before when people tried using Odin or GooManager to install custom recoveries on VRUCML1 and I'm confident it will be the same result here. I need video proof proving the opposite.
If you are referring to Towelroot, yes this will work on all three.
