Lurker
I have a new Samsung galaxy S3 from straight talk (SCH-S968C) And i need help rooting and installing a custom rom to my phone. I need a complete tutorial please help. I used cydia impactor but i get a signature bugs unavailable error. Im running linux 64-bit on my computer. Please help!
 
Your guide doesn't work on the STS3 sch-s968c that has the H2 baseband, it only works on the H1 baseband, those with the H2 baseband have to downgrade to H1 before they can root it.

There is a post a few posts up with the guide for rooting the S3 with kernel dated after Aug 7 2014, that is what the H2 users have to do to gain root.


Also, the ROM in your guide is really old there are many ROMs for this device, most require a SIM but some don't, there are KK 4.4.4 ROMs that work without the SIM.

There is also this updated guide for the H2 that I updated the site on that explains the Odin(windows) method instead of the Hiemdall(Linux) method for those with windows, its easier with windows also.
