hi to all, after following the instructions on how to root CWM recovery for S3 LTE over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394
i managed to follow up to step 12 successfully (using ODIN and selecting PDA then finding I9305_CWM_Recovery.tar.md5 and clicking start etc)
so in recovery mode, i noticed that at the top it says "android recovery" and there is no options for "install zip from sdcard", but the closest was "apply update from external storage" as indicated from the first picture "error flash". After clicking that and selecting "Root_SuperSU.1.02-Busybox.1.21.0.zip", it shows the following error "failed to verify whole-file signature , signature verification failed" as indicated in the second picture "error flash 2". I'm using a sandisk 64gb micro SDXC card and have put the "Root_SuperSU.1.02-Busybox.1.21.0.zip" file in the root directory of the SD card, but am getting this error and unable to flash SuperSU, can anyone help me please?
i'm using jellybean 4.1.2
baseband I9305XXBLL5
build number JZ054K.I9305XXBMA6
i have solved this problem! turns out the phrasing for the workaround was a little confusing and missing one crucial step in the thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394
I will post the steps from the previous thread and rephrase it to make it clear for those who are faced with this problem:
1). Copy Root_SuperSU.1.02-Busybox.1.21.0.zip and Remove-boot-recovery.p.zip to the root of your device's external memory card (this means just placing it in the topmost directory of the memory card and not in subfolders!)
2. Boot your S3 LTE phone to download mode.
(Power off and then press and hold the power + volume down + home buttons at the same time)
6. Connect your phone to your PC using the cable that came with it.
7. If Kies is running on your pc shut it down.
8. Open the Odin application.
(Make sure your phone is detected, there will be a yellow square in the top left corner.)
9. Choose PDA button and select the I9305_CWM_Recovery.tar.md5.
10. Press start and wait. Your phone will be flashed and reboot when it is finished.
(After Odin finish let the device reboot to android at least one time before applying I9305_CWM_Recovery.tar.md5.) DO NOT CLOSE ODIN OR REMOVE THE USB CABLE FROM PHONE TO PC HERE!!
11. NOW THIS IS THE CRUCIAL STEP!
In Odin, make sure that the "Auto-Reboot" checkbox is NOT TICKED. Previously in step 8 when u launched Odin for the first time, u would be unable to select any options as all the checkboxes were greyed out.
12. In the Odin application, Choose PDA button and select the I9305_CWM_Recovery.tar.md5.
13. Once you see a "PASS" in the Odin application, you are ready to enter CWM's recovery mode.
14. Put the phone in recovery mode.
(Hold down power, volume up and home when the device is turned off and unplugged.)
15. You should now be able to enter CWM's recovery mode instead of the default Android recovery. Now you will be able to see "install zip from sdcard". After that you can flash the Root_SuperSU.1.02-Busybox.1.21.0.zip to be ROOTED to any firmware and make a backup and restore of your firmware, also you can now flash any custom rom / kernel made for GT-I9305.
Hope this is clearer to those faced with the same problems as me! Please give thanks if it helps!
I received as gift a samsung watch, that come with Tizen, I will describe how to do all the steps to install the custom rom.
I have a lot of problem and I write this to help all in special noobs like me.
(no wondershare, no root, no phone needed)
Things I used:
Odin 3.12 - Will write into rom of your device, in this case gear.
Stock Rom (Go to Sammobile, you will have to do a account) - "Rom original to install".
Null rom (don't get the 27, the last version is 23)
ADB
Samsung Drivers
In some cases:
SDB
Downgrade Tizen To Android
I will write the other steps bellow it's just too much things to do it.
I will came back to say all steps. and putting links and forum I was based.
Process
Steps
[Step USB Debuging](Gear)
[Preparation 1 - ADB and verify android](Windows)
[Preparation 1.1 - In case you have tizen installed](Windows)
[Preparation 2 - Intall custom recovery](Windows)
[Preparation 3 - Copying null_23 to sdcard](Windows)
[Installing Null rom 23](Gear)
[Step USB Debuging]
Unlock you phone, and enable usb debuging
You don't need to use a phone to do it. At any version of SO installed you can go without a phone.
In case you think you need the phone to go to configuration you don't need.
Press the touchscreen on the version of your watch, at least 10 times, then press and hold where is writed gear, and you will unlock the phone.
Go to configurations, about the phone select usb debuging.
If you are not seeing the usb debuging, then go to the menu and click 7 times on version, and will unlock the usb debuging.
Go back and enable usb debuging. If you having problems I do a tutorial, but send a picture of your watch and screen.
[Preparation 1](Windows)
First thing you need to know if you are using Android or Tizen OS.
Install Samsung Drivers, to recognize your gear, connect the gear to computer.
Install ADB, or download it.
Then open a terminal, windows + R type cmd and press enter.
Navigate ADB folder, and type adb devices, if no device is show and you have gear plugged and dock and at pc with the right part of gear at the dock, and Samsung drivers, maybe you are using Tizen.
You can't go on until you see the device at adb devices.
[Preparation 1.1](Windows)
In case you wanna see if you are using Tizen then:
Install SDB, or download it.
Then open a terminal, windows + R type cmd and press enter.
Navigate SDB folder, and type sdb devices, if are showing devices you are using Tizen and need to do a Downgrade to Android to continue the installation.
Download the downgrade, unzip and do as I say, because I was doing wrong and my touch stopped working, then I need to reinstall the stock rom.
[Go to download option]Hold power button for 10 seconds, than press it at least 10 times, press until download and then press for 3 seconds and released.
Open Odin, connect you gear to pc.
You have to see [com:X] to see that your gear is connect.
Than select the pit tab, select the file .pit inside the folder you unziped.
Select the file at AP that started with 1.
Uncheck all, and leave only Reset time and Repartion checked.
WAIT until you see PASS, don't remove it at RESET.
Please now you don't go again to download option, you have to go to recovery, if you don't do it your touch will not work, and you will need to reinstall stock and restart full proccess.
[Go to recovery option] Hold power button for 10 seconds, than press it at least 10 times, press until recovery and then press for 3 seconds and released.
[Black screen]You now have to see the lack screen of death to continue, it say you have to connect to Kies and stuff(Just don't do it).
Now at this black screen you can continue.
Close Odin, and open it again.
Select at Ap rom that started with 2, uncheck auto restart, and press start.
WAIT until Odin say to Pass, don't remove at RESET.
If every thing goes right you installed MK7, and can continue the proccess.
Reboot and do the step again [Step USB Debuging].
[Preparation 2 - Intall custom recovery](Windows)
You have android installed at your gear, if you don't have the mk7 version, please download it at sammobile, use odin with checked restart and reset time, and hit start.
Now with MK7 version you will install a modification to when you use the [Go to recovery option], and now will have another feature this recovery.
At this new feature you can install a custom rom, and this case we will install null23(that is the lastest version, do not install null27)
To do so you will install a custom recovery TWRP, this will only affect the recovery option of your rom.
Open Odin, select the twrp.tar, and hit start.
Wait for PASS, and reboot and do the step again [Go to recovery option].
Check if touch is working, if this is not working, and you did a downgrade you need to do it again, i did this step at least 10 times, and the problem was I wasn't doing exatcly as I said.
If touch work you can go to the next step.
[Installing Null rom 23](Gear)
Now if your recovery changed you can go to your new customized recovery.
[Go to recovery option]
Click at wipe.
Wait, and back to menu.
Install, look for null_23.zip
Click at it.
Now you are installing the custom rom.
End
Hope I Helped.

In what step did you actually install null_23 onto the gear??? In recovery I see twrp folder, but null 23 is not under it. I'm stuck at this point because I can't put null 23 in my sd card so I can install it.

Yes we can move it if we add the A50s (you might need to remind us though)
It's quite common to create a device thread in a "close-match" forum while waiting to see if a new (more precise device) forum is created.
So long as the thread is clearly titled (as this one is) then it's ok.

@redymedan Very nice works !!
i will try this but i have some concern before root my phone that are
- How can i fully backup all my app and appdata?
the root require full wipe data , factory reset , it is hard for backup everything when we dont have twrp for a50s yet (im not sure if it also require to full wipe when install twrp) and adb backup method only backup some playstore app but not the outside app , or some apps that developer dont give permission to adb backup such as steam
- and what can i do if i accident get bootloop or soft brick? does flash a stock rom will fix these?

For backup all your data, you can try Samsung Smart Switch and If something goes wrong like bootloop, soft brick, Just flash the ROM to make it works again.

Right click and select extract here or extract to same name with the file name, It will create a folder like the file name. Make sure 7zip installed on your PC

For clearly I suggest you watch the Video
So, I was on Android 10, I was trying to root using Magisk & TWRP as mentioned in this XDA Post.
Title:: "[RECOVERY] TWRP 3.3.0 for Galaxy M20" , By DarkLord1731, Senior Member on 3rd March 2019, 08:54 AM (**mentioning because i cant post link**)
Even after multiple attempts, I was unable to install
1. no-verity-opt-encrypt 2. RMM Bypass zip using TWRP.
Both kept on failing even when i tried different versions.
-------------
Later on when i tried flashing SuperSU , phone got bootlocked
still stuck, any help would be appreciated.
-------
Installation Steps:
- First, make sure your phone isn't RMM Locked.
- Download Odin3 v3.13.1, Samsung USB Drivers, latest TWRP's tar for your variant, latest no-verity-opt-encrypt zip, latest Magisk.zip and RMM Bypass zip by Black Mesa, and copy all of them to your external sd card.
- Go to Settings App, Developer Options and enable OEM Unlock (If you don't see Developer Setings, go into About phone>Software info and tap "Build number" 10 times to show Developer Options menu).
- Do a backup of all your important data and files in your phone.
- Shutdown the phone. Once it's off, Power it On in Download Mode (Connect your phone to your PC, press and hold Power, Vol + and Vol - buttons together )
- Open Odin3, go in Option section and untick "Auto-reboot". Once that click the "AP" button and select the TWRP tar you downloaded before, then press the "Start" button.
- Once Odin3 finished to flash the recovery (you should see a "PASS" message), force reboot your phone (Press and hold Power and Vol - buttons together) and once the screen is off, press and hold Power and Vol + buttons together to boot in TWRP.
- Once TWRP is booted you first need to decrypt your /data partition. To do so touch Wipe>Format Data and follow the instructions in screen.
- Once it finished go back at the home screen and touch Reboot>Recovery. TWRP should be able to mount your data partition. Now flash the no-verity-opt-encrypt, Magisk(necessary to prevent bootloops) and RMM Bypass zip you downloaded before (touch Install and select each zip to flash it)
- You're now able to reboot to your OS without re-encrypting /data partition and without RMM Prenormal lock.
