Is the Verizon methods of rooting the way to go for the SCH-R530M? I have been searching around and cannot find the appropriate forum and/or guide to rooting my MetroPCS S3.

Since metro pcs is TMobile I don't think the rooting options would work, however have you tried using towelroot?
Nexus 6 via Pure Nexus

I haven't tried any rooting yet because I was unsure of which model to base my searches off of. I will give towelroot a shot!
EDIT: Towelroot was a success!

Greetings! I need help unlocking my Samsung Galaxy S III SCH-S968C Tracphone on Verizon network running android 4.1.2
I did find a couple of postings about unlocking the AT&T version by keying in *#197328640# to the dialer, but got no response or menu.
I also found a couple of threads to root my particular model such as: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516498
but it seems that rooting in itself will not help me (I am not versed in rooting, but I did review the process using cydia impactor as posted).
Can this phone be unlocked straight-up (please...), or is rooting required and if so, how would I proceed after the initial rooting application to actually unlock the phone?
Thanks in advance!!!

What he said ^
same phone
[/RIGHT] I have the same phone can't be unlocked .. So I'm selling phone to buy a T-mobile /sumsung s4 with 4G unlimited text& talk 2.5 gb prepaid for just $299.00/ $40.00 a month plan. Sold at walmart ...... So straight talk kiss my azz.... .....o.k
Wow all this knowledge and this crappy Flintstone tracfone has everyone bumfuzzled.. is that why it cost 140 used? Incompatible with just about every app and game. My classic game boy had more features and accessibility than this rip off prison phone. lawsuit overflowing device.
I'm beginning to not trust using tracphones for development - trying a Samsung Galaxy J7 Crown and it's stuck in that Binary Factory while now allowing me to re-enter download mode. Have you found anything that works on yours yet?
Hello, I apologize if I post this in the wrong thread for I am new to the community but I was wondering if there has been a bootloader unlock method for the Verizon S3 running 4.4.2. I've been searching for a couple hours and can only find unlock methods for either 4.1.2 or threads from 2014 saying you can't do it. I was wondering if there has been a method found yet. Thank you

Nope not as of yet. I would be just about certain there won't be an unlock method at any point

Hey guys, I'm new to rooting. The wondershare Root tool didn't work for me. I have a feeling it doesn't work for my model, and looked through the forums here but am very overwhelmed of all the threads.
Can someone help me determine if my phone is rootable? And if so, how to implement it?
It's originally from ATT, but now with Flash Wireless for Tmobile.

Well that sucks!
Hi all! So I'm pretty familiar with rooting my Galaxy S4 but have recently purchased and upgraded to a Galaxy S7. It's an SM-G930U model and currently set up with my MetroPCS account. I've had some issues finding ROMS that I can use with Odin to root but haven't had much luck. I was able to find stock roms in case something goes awry but no luck with customs. Can someone help me out with a link? Thanks!

There are no custom roms since the bootloader is locked so the rooting process is different from what you are used to, so follow this guide:
