[Completed] NEED HELP with ROOT/ others S3 Mini

I want to give my S3 Mini Root Access to potentially start installing Custom Roms. However, researching the topic has gotten extremely confusing. I have the international version but I don't know from which country. I got it off Amazon.com. My questions are
1. How do I go about giving this S3 Mini root Access
2. How do I go back to the Stock ( Samsung FW/ Rom if I do not like the Rom I installed)
3. Are there easy methods to rooting with a MAC device? ( My main computer but I can find access to a windows computer if needed)

Any help or information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was able to root my phone. Now my question is that I would like to run a lag free system. Would changing the Rom fix that? Will I lose any features on my phone? I want a rom that is Simple ( google edition phone/ no bloatware) My current system is 4.2.1, would I need to stay on 4.2.1 to keep my features or that doesnt matter.

Please post that question in Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting so that the right experts may help you.

I have rooted my Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos GT i9082 using this root genius however after rooting my phone I don't know what to do next. What apps should I install now? I got a problem on my internal memory, how can I maximize it? What should I really do to have a good rooted phone?

Hi,
Normally when you post an issue in someone elses thread with another unrelated issue... We'd call that thread hijacking. ? Not a good practice.
But I will quickly just tell you that your device has its own section, and you can ask questions there....
> Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 > Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
That is where you should ask for advice. ?

[Completed] Rooting a doogee f1 turbo mini

Hi
I have the doogee f1 mini turbo, whilst a good phone it comes with the obligatory malware built into the firmware. In this case it's an app called device management. I ve tried rooting the phone using the usual apps/apks but none seem to work. Is there any other way to remove the infected app. The phone runs android 4.4.4. Thanks

Sorry ... nothing helpful found on xda.
The only thing I found is another user asking the same question: [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly].
Here is the general rooting page of xda: How to Root Any Device ... with links to all popular rooting methods/tools/etc.
Maybe there you can find something which works on your device.
Good luck !

cheers for the help but ive already tried the I root apk and it didn't work. I'm really stuck with how to root it.

[Completed] How to root an device safely. And keep the original ROM safe.

[Completed] Blu studio g "hd" (s170l_v13)

Hi guys, i just bought a BLU STUDIO G "HD" (S170L_V13)(Lollipop 5.1) but i found nothing of how to root and/or ROM. I try Kingo and Towel with no success (uff, no brick), also need recovery for this phone.
I dont know if the BLU STUDIO G (not HD) will work for my phone, i dont wanna brick it. I've read all Studio G but like a say, dont know if will work for my HD and i dont want to "assume" it will work.
If some one can give me some info about it, much appreciated.

MAY BE NO ONE CARES BUT I'LL BE POSTING MY UPDATES FOR PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PHONE "BLU STUDIO HD (S170L_V13)
I try just one more time KINGOROOT and it work, SuperUser was installed and remove apps that i want, then install SuperSU and like always ask to update Binary, i update it successfully and restart, one's restarted remove SuperUser of Kingo and done.. I have root and SuperSU Installed with no problems at all.
Searching for the ROM after many hours found the stock ROM for this phone by William Smith (BLU Dev) https://www.mediafire.com/folder/5gegw4ka4f72u/Studio_G_HD_S170L. the ROM is in .pac and you have to use SPD Upgrade Tool to installed. All the info is here https://androidmtk.com/flash-pac-stock-rom-android-smartphone, I have not tested but I took the risk rooting cus I found the rom so do it at you own risk.
I try to install Xposed but the phone is lollipop and x64 which is not compatible, I read some xda threads but tbh is kind of confusing for my, TMI jeje.
If someone can please tell me how to do it, how to install Xposed in Lollipop
Thanks in advance.
