There are many ways to root S3 mini, but many thread about this are very old.
I recently rooted a Samsung tablet using Odin to flash TWRP so I could flash supersu by Chainfire.
Is this a possibility for the S3 mini aswell?

Sorry, will try to post in correct thread next time.
This is why I asked, the post is 3 years old. I was wondering if something has happened since then.

Not much has changed with the stock rom.

As I own a Galaxy Tab with Android 2.2 I would like to change to Android 2.3.3
The Basband version in use is: P1000DXJJ2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 root(at)SE-S604 #1
Build number: FROYO.DXJK2
Now my question is: could I just manual upgrade to version 2.3.3 which I had downloaded, in total 4 files:
P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1q000XXJPZ.zip
dbdata.zip
gt-p1000_mr_PIT.zip
ODIN3 v1.83.exe
Could someone please tell me it's ok to use that files or, if not, point me in the right direction.
Thank you so much for any answer.
This rom is for european galaxy tab, but I think you can flash it on an asian version of the tab. Look at the development section for this rom.

Can I ask two questions...
(a) Where did you get the download from and (b) have you installed the ROM and how did it go?

To your question:
a: androidtotal. com/manually-install-update-samsung-galaxy-tab-to-android-2.3.3-gingerbread/
b: I asked my question in the OP before I try to install!
I do NOT like to brick my Tab with an unsupported Rom! That's why I ask upfront the Rom could be used on my Asian Tab or not.

Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunate, I couldn't post in the Dev section right now because of my post count.
As my Tab is an unlocked Tab with Quadband and 3G (900/1900/2100 MHz) I hope that everything will works with the Europe version, I just want to be sure not to brick the device!

You shouldn't have been posting in the dev section anyway, that is for posting of dev projects/reference.

No, you are wrong. We have a Q&A forum, try using some common sense. Do you honestly think that its sane to allow questions or other type of topics to be created in the dev section? It would just lead to a complete un-organized mess and browsing the dev section would be a pain in the arse.

First at all: The Q&A forum haven't gave an answer within a week or more! Do you really think that's OK?
Secondly: My question were for the Gingerbread Version (Overcome Beta) which is running in the Dev forum and therefore I really do believe that those forum were the right place for to ask questions about that specific version.
After NOT getting an answer in the Q&A forum, I done more researches and found the Samsung Stock Rom (NOT on this forum) and was asking my final question in the Samsung Galaxy Tab General forum.
My remark about the min. post count for to be able to post in the dev forum were just that: A REMARK.
Last but not least, this is a public forum and as long as I stay to the rules, I could post as I like and as it is allowed! There only the forum staff, means Admin's and Moderators who have the right to limit a action or posting ability of an 'normal' user and those will be done in case of an breach of the rules only.
I'm Administrator on one Board and Global Moderator on an other Board and believe me or not, I know what I'm talking about.
If you think that my post('s) are inappropriate, please feel free to report my post to the forum staff.
Have a nice day.

I updated the last night from 2.2 t0 2.3.3 and everything is fine now. It's quite a bit of improvement compare to Froyo.
Thanks for the info.
Hey pcinfo1, I'm searching around the forum, we are on the same stock ROM.
I like to know if its ok for me to flash to Overcome ROM v3.1.0-KRATOS???
Thanks!
Ok to flash overcome rom ONLY if you update to stock gingerbread 1st. You need the gb bootloaders installed otherwise you will end up with your tab hanging on the samsung logo. Thankfully overcome has the safe stock gb rom v5 that has the gingerbread bootloaders. All you need to do is find the modem.bin file for your region/carrier and you're set.

Hii, thanks for the reply mate. how do i find modem.bin file for my region/carrier?
I'm from Singapore and it should be considered as Asian set right? Thanks!

The reason there are no answers given sometimes is because the questions are so weak, or have been asked and answered soo many times.
If you post a question that doesn't get answered within a day (not within 30 minutes like some people expect), rethink your question.
Posts that have "Hi guys, I'm new" or "Help, I've bricked my tab" for titles tend to get passed over.
guys my device is rooted by chainfire method.. now i m think of install custom rom..
how i m install custom rom on my device....?

Here is a link, its got very clear instructions on rom flashing
I have a rooted SGT 7.0 (Sprint) with the Samsung version of Gingerbread. I'd like to flash it with an ICS build, and the one I selected said to flash it using CWM.
Could someone please tell me if the instructions in the link below are still valid for Gingerbread? They appear to be written back when the device still had Froyo, so I'm not sure if I should follow the same steps.

This is also annoying (besides the forbidden dev threads, and 5 minutes waiting time for an edit, jeez). ^^

Im by no means new to the rooting community, but I'm drawing a blank on finding the information I need. Maybe just having a blind day lol.
But is there anyway to root the AT&T Galaxy S5 on Lollipop?

This has been asked and answered SEVERAL TIMES in SEVERAL THREADS. If you are on G900A and took the OTA to 5.0 you are screwed, no root and no downgrade. If you are on G870A (S5 Active) then you can downgrade, root, and reupgrade with keep root through muniz_ri method or flash a custom ROM like TMS5 or Alliance. I'm feeling the need to make a Lollipop 5.0 Q&A thread so new threads asking week old questions can stop cluttering up the forums.
Well since this post has obviously butthurt someone will a mod please delete. Thanks.

Not trying to be an azzhole but there is a search function for a reason...if you had done a search for your question you would've answered it by reading within a couple mins.
If Someone know if theres someone working on Root for S5 G900A?
If so, changelog or something that tell us how the process is going?

Hello everyone!
I have been meaning to root my G900A for a while and I am having a hell of a time finding accurate information. I'm sure there has been a hundred threads before me. Places say its impossible and others say to rollback. I have looked through many threads and just need a definitive answer. I am on Android 5.0 OF3. Please, any information is greatly appreciated!

No, not on OF3 from AT&T.
If you have received the official AT&T update for OC4, OF2, or OF3 or later, then there is no way to root, and if you try to downgrade you will end up bricking your device.
See the Note section at http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...w-to-update-to-g900aof2-5-0-keeproot-t3149146
Thank you for the reply. Well that is a shame.. Have the only phone that is super locked down. Looks like this will go on Craigslist and I might just go pick up a Nexus 5x.
Sorry I double posted so I removed my comment from here.
Short answer no...please see your other post on this same topic for the full answer. Please only post once for the same question!
I thought I post it once and it didn't take so I tried again and saw my post

Well this sucks, out of all the Galaxy's I've bought, why did this one have to end up root-less? :/
Are there even attempts (I am guessing not at this point in time) of rooting this device? It will for ever be root-less :'(
There is root, this is an old thread.
