Galaxy S3 I9300 android 4.3 unlock - GSM-Forum

rhadu · 01-02-2014, 09:43

Hi guys. I was tricked by a dude to buy a Galaxy S3 I9300, locked on Vodafone Romania, telling me it was unlockable, and I could do it myself.
He didn`t mentioned to me it had software version android 4.3 .
Now, how can I unlock it ? I rooted the phone with Odin.

Step-1: Download CF-Auto-Root file for Galaxy S3 to computer

CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.zip

Step-2: Extract the downloaded root zip using Winzip, 7zip, winrar or any other extracting tool to get CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar.md5 file

Step-3: Download Odin3_v3.07. Extract the Odin zip to get Odin3 v3.07.exe file

Step-4: Switch off Galaxy S3

Step-5: Enter into Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power buttons together until the construction Android robot icon with a warning triangle appears on the phone's screen. Then press the Volume Up button to enter into Download Mode

Step-6: Run Odin3 v3.07.exe as Administrator

Step-7: Connect the phone to the computer using USB cable while it is in Download Mode. Wait for some time until Odin detects the device. When the phone is connected successfully, an Added message will appear under Odin message box. Additionally, the ID: COM box in Odin will turn blue with the COM port number indicating successful connection

Note: If the Added message does not appear, try another USB port, try the one located at the back side of the computer. In case Odin still fails to recognise the device then reinstall USB driver.

Step-8: In Odin, click the PDA button and select CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar.md5 which was extracted earlier

Step-9: Ensure Auto-Reboot and F.Reset Time checkboxes are selected in Odin

Step-10: Click the Start button in Odin. The installation process should begin now and take few minutes to complete

Step-11: After the installation process is completed, the phone will restart and soon a PASS message with green background will appear in the extreme left box at the very top of Odin. Once the home screen appears, unplug the USB cable from the phone to disconnect it from computer

Galaxy S3 running on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean firmware should now be rooted successfully. You may install any app that requires root permission. Also, verify the root status of the device by downloading Root Checker app from Google Play Store

nevermind, i manage to fix the problem. It was the antivirus who blocked the install

rhadu · 01-02-2014, 12:15

guys, after I installed the program and opened the aplication, i got the response, "card not found, waiting for connection"
Do I need a box or smthing like?
