Guide to root Samsung Galaxy S3:

Warning: Although the tutorial shared below can successfully root Samsung Galaxy S3, there are chances of you bricking your device and making it useless. If you are a newbie and don’t have the basic knowledge of rooting, then I recommend you not to proceed. HowToRoot.in is no way responsible for any damage you do to your phone by following the tutorial below. Read the disclaimer page for more information about the risks involved.
Before you start:
  • I would recommend you to take full backup of any files that are present either in internal memory or in external memory. Generally, rooting and installing custom recovery on the device doesn’t wipe memory, but still be on the safer side and take a full backup.
  • Rooting voids warranty. So, if you root Samsung Galaxy S3, then you may not be able to claim warranty for the device.
  • Please ensure that your device has been charged to more than 75%.
  • Make sure you have installed Samsung Galaxy S3 Drivers.
  • Make sure that USB debugging is enabled and just recheck if you’re not sure. For enabling USB debugging, point your phone all the way to “Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging”.
