Could you guys find out/include the method to achieve root using Mac OS X? It would be greatly appreciated.

Help please

For some reason I am unable to achieve root. I flashed the LF9 update and then Odin'd v4 tar, pulled the battery when it said pass, booted to recovery and flashed root-from-recovery v4. When I rebooted, I did not have root. What did I do wrong please?

Hey guys I just got my Sprint SGS3 a few minutes ago and I'm getting the update notification, can I update it and still root?

update: nevermind I actually do have root access. however when I used the root check to see if I had root, it said that I did not and it said that the system was running very slowly. however when I did it again after updating the binary in su I found that I did have root. thanks to all the devs, donation on the way.

Does the flash actually fail with Odin? Or are you accidentally letting the phone reboot before booting into recovery. The Step-by-Step directions are there for this very reason. If the phone boots up without flashing our Root .zip v4, the stock kernel will rewrite the stock recovery back to the phone and you will have to start over.

Question? Do we need to install busybox and let it update?

Depends on the method you use to root.
