I used Odin3 v 3.04.. Extracted the firmware, put the extracted md5 file in PDA and clicked on Start with phone in download mode..

After the phone restarted, went into recovery Volume up+home+power and wiped cache and factory reset. restarted and things went smooth..


@Shaaaan.. Bro this is an exe file.. Why can't we have the zip file directly?

Press the black downloaded button not the other one.

You really think so?
Samsung will never remove it. That key always works though. Now that i know, it should also work on gb.
In that case every package can be signed and applied like a finger snap. I think it's not what Sammy wants.
Tested it on I8160 with 2.3.6 and got E:signature verification failed, expectedly.

However, i wonder that it works in JB ;)

Erm. Might be. Kernel maybe!
I couldn't flash any other zips though! It needs a signature! Its possible that Sammy might have done that!

I finally managed to root JB. It is a hassle free process. No kernel changing required.
It doesn't increase the binary counter.

Download here : Root

How to :
1. Download the zip and place it in the root of your sd card.
PS : SD Card is a must.
2. Reboot to the stock recovery.
3. Select install update from external storage.
4. Select the root.zip file.
5. Viola

Enjoy your rooted JB.

Note : This method has been derived from a method to root SGS2. Thanks to Phil3759 and his thread.


Be a sport. Buy me a coffee..!!
thank you! You're the best! :laugh::good:

Hi Shaan,

many thanks for the update. i will do it. :)

yday while installing jb firmware, i forgot to untick repartition tab in odin (1.85 version) and now my device will show 3.12 GB storage (it was some 12 GB before) note that i havent installed anything. not even pictures or movies.

also my phone gallery and camera will give memory error, they wont just open.

while opening apk files, the error is problem in parsing the pkg. and some installed files give error saying fail to deploy sd data, clear the memory.

please advice me what do i do now??

Find a pit file for the 16 gig device. Use it.

    Seriously? Can you even read?
    I just can't take it anymore. Its clearly written on the thread title that it'sfor jb. In the entire first post, do you even find a mention of gb? NO. Still you ask this?

    This doesn't end here. This is the first forum since my time on xda where i see junior members posting their questions on every single thread. Do you guys even search or read? You just spam threads with your questions and create new topics.

    Furthermore i can even see users creating question threads in the dev forum. Are you guys so dumb that you don't understand the meaning of Android Development?
    The most important rule of the entire opensource world is that you DO NOT ASK FOR ETA..!! And you guys do just that.

    What more can i say. I am just annoyed.
