samsung galaxy s3

I'm on Android 4.3, the version Samsung supplies. I do have a downloaded update that refuses to install. Lately, my phone seems to insist on putting EVERYTHING on the 16gb internal storage, with very little going to the 32gb SD card. I'm now out of space in internal storage and can't make...

I've backed up my phone plenty of times, and it has always worked, now all of a sudden i get the error: "createTarFork() process ended with signal: 9" This is about 1/3 through the backup, while it's working on backing up the Data Partition. I've checked the log and i just see a bunch of Mozilla...

Hello: I have a Galaxy S3 that I've been very pleased with until recently. For the past couple of months, the battery wouldn't seem to hold a charge. I figured the 2-year old ZeroLemon battery I had installed was at the end of its life-span, so I bought another ZeroLemon battery as a...

My old galaxy s3 wont read SIM card,think my brother broke it!! Is it easy to replace the SIM card tray? I can pick them up real cheap online and I watched 2 videos on youtube,seems pretty straight forward. But I've never done anything like this before so would I be better giving it in to a...

My S3 has served me well for 3 years and 10 months (ish.) It is almost time to move on, reluctantly. It still works, albeit somewhat slowly. I still take nice photos with my s3 and I will keep my s3 as a back up and so that my kids can continue playing Angry Birds on it. My S3 is my first...

Okay, my S3 is no longer my daily driver. However I use it when in the field birding for my ID apps. I'd rather risk it than my S7 going in and out of my pocket frequently. Plus i have the add on to attach it to my spotting scope for pics. yesterday I turned it on and it booted into safe...

Every time I open my phone an ad pops up Here are some images.

Asking for someone else. They haven't ever been able to receive pictures through messaging. All it does is give them a download button whenever someone sends them a picture, when they press it a loading bar appears but the picture never actually downloads.

Please can anyone explain to me in the most instructive, step by step, and by step lol way..... How can I root my phone?
