[Completed] help an idiot, gain some karma

is there anywhere with a step by step method of rooting a galaxy s3 with single syllable words and big pictures detailing exactly what i need to do? ive spent literally 6 hours to get to the error message "setsockopt() failed:bad adress. this device is not supported. kallsyms_addresses search failed" followed by "unfortunately, root failed, press any key to continue" i have the drivers installed, the adt bundle thing, and now im stuck. please, take pity on the fool and explain in small words and large pictures what needs to be done. im certain there is an easy fix that would take mere seconds to put in place, but i cant find it.
oh, and im using saferoot.

Hmm ... I think you flashed the wrong recovery (for GT-N7000) to your Notes 2 (GT-N7100).
So try to flash the correct recovery to your Note 2. To do this, you need to boot it into download mode again.
Here you can find the Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100, N7105 > Galaxy Note II Android Development > [n710x/T889][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch - NEW JB 4.2 migration support thread.
And here you can ask further questions if needed: Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100, N7105 > Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting.

If neither recovery mode (hold Volume UP + HOME + POWER) nor download mode (Volume DOWN + HOME + POWER) works, then it sounds like a hard--brick.
Usually after flashing a wrong recovery you only get a semi- or soft-brick with download mode still working.
Please check again ... maybe the screen is black but the device is going into download mode.
And post your question in the linked help thread. There are many experienced users having the same (or a similar) device. So they may have additional ideas.

[Completed] [Q] Development issue on galaxy gt5830i

Hi, i was trying to install stock ROM on galaxy gt5830i (ace) because it was bricked, and i accidentally installed the ROM of galaxy gt5570i, now im stuck i tried to go download mode using adb (since i cant use buttons its a different ROM) and could only go to recovery, now im stuck in recovery since there's no choice to press, volume up works as volume up and home button work as volume down, the volume down button doesn't work at all, and i cant make selection using either or using power button, im stuck in recovery and no option to use Odin, i literally bricked the phone, any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi,
Flashing files not made for exact model of device can often lead to a brick unfortunately. Must always be careful and read read read before doing anything.
However, I would ask for opinions from members who own your device, here...

[Completed] galaxy s3 block

hello today i have download cyanlock from xposed and have i reboot there is no lockscreen and the background changing to black an every 2sec (i am on PAC ROM galaxy s3 4g)
Ps: sory for m'y english
PS2: m'y recovery bugging and reboot when i am trying to boot on recover

button
all m'y phisical Work

Hi,
I'd say flashing the rom will remove xposed, but if your recovery isn't working... That is a problem. So you may need to flash your stock firmware again. Be sure you use the files for your exact model and use this guide,
> Samsung Galaxy S III I9300, I9305 > Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [Guide]Odin Flash Guide
If you want to ask about other options.... You'll need to ask here,
