Why you shouldn't - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

You should just wait till we get proper methods.
Flashing different rooting and CWM methods could lead to improper use of the phone.
I would just wait if I was you..

There's a Factory Reset option in the settings...I did it before returning my 1st Tab (though it wasn't rooted). Would that work?

Im trying to retrace my steps and restored the nvflash backup img i created and figured out this only affects the recovery mode.
Im not sure if I need the zip file to unroot it and install using recovery mode.
Or maybe i should just delete the superuser apk?

No you cannot flash roms and mods when you are temp rooted as you have to reboot. When you reboot you are no longer temp rooted. Be patient things are sorting themselves out ,a dev is on it people are trying to get him devices so he can achieve full root.
Might as well get use to stock roms... could be a WHILE!! lol no one even has a clue. all we know is a few people are looking into it. with HTC having a stick up there *** and not releasing the GB kernal/rom we are stuck waiting.
no, you need full root
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=936
So I was in g2x forum, and they said you can flash a recovery without root. Then with recovery you can flash a rom.
Don't know if it works like that with our phones though.

Completely different phone. Perm rooting is dependant on the hardware's boot loader security. With the GB update on the shift hboot got updated and changed the security.

[Q] Recovery Preference

This may be premature, but now that we are unlocked and liberated from stock recovery what is the best replacement out there? I have used both clockwork mod and TWRP with other devices but does one have an advantage over the other with the M? Voice your opinion to the community!!!

I prefer TWRP, and it seems to be the best option for this phone. Use version 2.3, as 2.4 is still in beta and a lot of people have had issues with if. CWM doesn't have as many options as TWRP.

There is a link in this thread:

The TWRP that's included in the Unlock/Recovery thread in this forum has a link to 2.4, which is pretty buggy.

I haven't used it, but other people report that's it unable to restore a backup and freezes at "Creating MD5" when creating a backup. I think there were some other ones mentioned, but I couldn't find them.
