[Auto Updates are only accessible if you have donated to the Toolkit project, received an activation code and unlocked the donator features. Auto Updates are a much faster and easier way of pushing small updates that would otherwise not be worth doing. I can push a single textual change or add support for a new build without having to go through the whole process of building a full version and uploading a large file. IF you are not able to or do not want to donate to unlock the Auto Update feature (and other donator features) then all the smaller updates are collated and a full build made when I have time or if there are enough updates to warrant it. This is the easiest way to make sure all the Toolkits are as up to date as possible. IF you have any views about this please pm me about them and do not post in the open thread]

How easy is it to root with the tool kit? Once your phone is hooked up to your USB and the toolkit is open. You would press 4 or the corresponding number for rooting and hit enter. Takes all of a second or two and it's done. Same goes for a lot of the many options the kit has to offer.




A quick video showing the ease of the kit in action.

I'm still here. Just more spread out. Hahaha.


I've been spending more time learning and building apps and learning smali *GASP*. Oh that dreadful word, smali. I don't even like typing it. Haha

Hey fuzzy, I forgot to give my thanks to you for uploading this. I rooted my GS3 with no problem.

You are welcome sir. If you find that you could use the toolkit a lot, unlock all the features by donating a dollar or two or five. It's well worth it just for the auto update feature. Can't stress enough how much I love this thing. And I thought Android Commander was the best thing since sliced bread. Haha. Boy was I wrong.

I hear that. I went to Wal Mart today to get stuff for my work week and every damn time I go in there I spend more than I want to. haha. They have to have some subliminal ish set up somewhere that makes you spend more money than you want. haha

To add support for 4.1.2 for your model/build please do the following:
NOTE: Stock boot images are needed to add support to the Toolkit. If you have rooted via custom recovery zip file the boot image will still be stock and fine to use but if you have rooted by flashing an insecure boot image please do not send anything as the file will be incorrect.
1. On the Model Selection screen enter any number for your model
2. In the Main Menu select option 5 and flash TWRP Recovery
3. Reboot to Recovery using the Reboot Device Options section
4. Select 'Backup' from the menu in TWRP Recovery
5. Untick everything except 'Boot' and swipe at the bottom to make a backup
6. Reboot the system back into Android
7. Copy the boot.emmc.win file from sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS to your pc
8. Email the file to firmware.support@skipsoft.net with the full model/build number
Support will then be added and pushed as an update as soon as possible

For people who do not want or cannot get the Auto Update versions you can download twrp touch from Goo.im Downloads - Browsing samsung_galaxy_s3 and flash it via the Toolkit. SuperSU can be updated to the latest version from the app.

Glad you like it. The toolkit is a must for any first time rooter, unlocker, etc... It's invaluable.




I'll be swapping out Toolkit versions to the Nexus 4 version once my N4 arrives

 

[ljmndrc]

Glad to be here great group, new to sgs3.Found the answer.

 

[Cory18]

Will this still root if I'm on JB 4.1.2?

 

[Fuzzy13]

It should have options all the way to up the most recent build available which is either 4.2.1 or 4.2.2. Can't remember whats been released for the s3.

 

[nomodx]

I used this to root my 4.1.2 and it locked up trying to install supersu. Had to restart root process and it worked. When it rebooted it left the screen black. Nothing worked. Booted into recovery and installed carbon rom. Followed instructions exactly on install, back working great.. Don't know why it went black tho......

Never heard of a single issue caused by the actual tool kit. User inflicted issues is a different story.......

At least you got it working.
