QUOTE(cho @ May 7 2013, 04:50 PM) from my understanding, first 12 months warranty is on Samsung itself. If u send to the place you buy, they will also send it to Samsung. After 12 months warranty, the warranty is from the place you buy only. i.e. Seng Heng . so the CF-AUTO rooting method is the best and it will 100% work for 4.1.2?Framaroot use Exynos exploit right? It should not work if S3 is already updated to the latest firmware which include Exynos exploit patch. |

QUOTE(cho @ May 7 2013, 05:21 PM) Nope... it should be 150% work i think... Thanks boss! ur the best! i manage to root my phone already  1. make sure your battery is above 50% 2. download cf-auto-root, make sure for your s3 version i.e. as for me, GT-i9300. if it in zip file, extract it 3. make sure you already install driver for your s3 in your PC or at least Samsung Kies. 4. enter your phone into Download Mode (vol down+home+power) 5. connect your phone to PC via USB . and let your PC finish driver installation first 6. Run Odin, and wait for Odin to detect your phone 7. select cf-auto-root tar.md5 file in PDA section 8. dont change anything else, click flash 9. your phone will reboot twice, and finally rooted. But , as our friend nokia6280 said, it doesnt hurt to try Framaroot as it should be easier and then report back here.  - I have no idea. but i think they absorb repairing cost only. i doubt they have a team to repair. - Will try later Framaroot. Thanks for info  Must belanja u minum one day! |

Sifu's , i think i might need your help regarding this problem.
Before rooting, when i unlock my phone suddenly my whole screen will become whitish and blur and it only recovers after i lock and unlock again. It happens not that frequent tho, and its super bright eventho i set it at the lowest. I can distinguish between the highest brightness set and this problem. Is totally two different problems. Anyone also having such a problem? After rooting, it has been coming quite frequent. Should i bring my phone back to the SC to check or is it a normal bug on the firmware?  |

QUOTE(Dannyl @ May 11 2013, 02:22 AM) After TriangleAway, flash stock ROM and do factory reset. Its in a stock ROM and its rooted currently. If i were to do factory reset, will it affect my rooting? |

QUOTE(Dannyl @ May 11 2013, 02:25 AM) Factory reset will not remove root. To remove root, you need to re-flash the stock ROM. You're trying to go back to 100% stock, right? Nop, that means your method is only when i wanna go back to 100% stock? does that means that as long as i want my phone to be rooted, the system status will be at custom mode always? |
