Step 1: Enable Developer Options and USB Debugging

  1. Go to Settings on your Galaxy S3.
  2. Scroll down and tap on “About device”.
  3. Look for “Build number” and tap on it seven times to enable Developer mode.
  4. Once Developer mode is enabled, go back to the main Settings menu and tap on “Developer options”.
  5. Find and enable “USB debugging”. This option needs to be turned on before proceeding with the rooting process.

Step 2: Download Required Files

  1. Visit the links provided in the video description to download the necessary files.
  2. Download the PC drivers for your Galaxy S3 and install them on your computer.

Step 3: Prepare Files on Your Computer

  1. Create a folder on your desktop and name it something like “S3 Root”.
  2. Open the root zip file that you downloaded and inside you will find three files.
  3. Select all three files and drag them into the “S3 Root” folder you just created.
  4. Close the zip file and open the folder on your desktop.

  7. Once the process is complete, your phone will reboot. This means that it has been successfully rooted.

Step 5: Verify Root Access

  1. Unlock your phone and press any key in the command prompt to continue.
  2. Open the SuperSU app on your phone (you can find it in your app drawer).
  3. If prompted, update the SU binary and choose the desired options.
