Backup everything especially your EFS - backup your EFS using EFS Pro and backup your EFS via TWRP and backup your EFS via Samsung Tool as well so that you have triple EFS backup.
The rest of data backup especially your contacts/call logs/sms/bookmarks - please use Super Backup sms & contact from PS and choose your sd card as a backup folder.
For WhatsApp please backup in chat settings and backup to your Google account - and just in case copy your WhatsApp folder to elsewhere.

Root first


Install TWRP


Install latest stable SuperSU

Cynogenmod Nougat 7.1.1 for GT-i9300

Please ensure you manually backup your EFS(at least save them 5 copies) using EFS Pro

Anyone has this problem where wifi keep on getting authentication error?

I can only connect to wifi when my S3 is directly next to the router.

Already reset, flash to countless rom, but problem still persist. Could it be wifi chip got problem liao?

Say goodbye to your S3 Mobo - me & my 2 other friends whom are using GT-i9300 also kena

hmmm... for me, i noticed the s3 is picky about with AP it connects to. some AP, it can detect and connect just fine. some AP (sadly, including the one in my house)... it just simply won't connect and telling me some error. i think it's just some firmware issue...?

using CM... but forgot which one liao...

I have tested on few ROMs still yield the same results - even if it get connected to a very close router nearby,it is very slow connection

any test we can do to confirm if it's so called HW issue?

i guess i can power up my S3 and test it over the next few days and see if it's the same...

The info that I'm getting is from the handphone shop technician - unless you might want to visit Samsung SC and update us here.
