[ROOT] Galaxy Mega 6.3 - GT-I9205 and GT-I9200

This is the second version of the Galaxy Mega 6.3 root solution.
It replaces the original rootable kernel.
This version comes with SuperSU 1.41 preinstalled and the su and busybox pathes have been changed to achieve better compatibility with some root applications.

The vcoreroot-v2.tar file can be flashed with Odin as PDA.
Keep Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time selected.

Use at your own risk, I'm not responsible for bricking your device.

SUCCESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.......

I flashed the CWM-based Recovery v6.0.3.2 (20130621) successfully...

by Alda.V
and I got the CWM working now. Thank you so much Alda.V for this....( I got the same 2 red lines after flashing
this, I tried to flash the stock kernel for this but it did not work. But that is fine, We have a working CWM
now..Thanks to Alda.V for this..)

Here is my story of research..

I then did a backup of the Factory installed ROM using this CWM. It backed up fine.
Then did a reset/factory restore and deleted Dalvik-Cache fine. It worked fine.
My mistake I also formatted the \System, \Data, \Cache along with reset/factory restore and rebooted the phone.
To my bad luck the phone stayed at the boot logo ( Samsung GT-I9200 )
Then I realised I should not have formatted the \System......
Tried again only to reset/factory restore and deleted Dalvik-Cache and checked it.
Nothing worked..
I tried to restore the backup of the Factory installed ROM but it will not find the files. But I backed up the
Factory installed ROM fine. I did not know what to do now. My thought was only to take the phone to Service
Center again.

Then I got an idea about the Stock Pre-rooted Firmware by Alexyuh. I downloaded the Stock Pre-rooted Firmware
for my Phone Galaxy Mega I9200 Mega 6.3 India-INU.
by Alexyuh ( Thanks much for this firmware)

Flashed this using Odin and that worked. After rebooting I got the Russian language but I changed it to English
(United States) and checked it. All went fine and all working good now.
Also checked with backup of this Stock Pre-rooted Firmware and successfully restored it. Not sure why I could
not restore the Factory installed ROM. I now know what to with this Phone..From backing up to restoring it)

Thanks to everyone for this..I attached images of this..Please check them...

Whit new Custom Recovery 6.0.3.2 we can make this to have root:

- Flash the Stock kernel (if is not already).
- Flash CWM-Recovery-6.0.3.2
- On recovery flash the .zip attached.
----> We have all root issues solved.

Tried this .zip on i9205, new Rom MG3. Worked nice.

You can flash the vcoreroot-v2.tar boot image with Odin v3.07.
It is confirmed to work on GT-I9205 and GT-I9200 devices and includes the LTE driver.
LTE will of course be ignored on the GT-I9200.

Will this improve the root of devices rooted using the previous method? Or will this do the same thing? Can we redo the process?

It basically does the same thing. It's just more compatible with some apps like the Multi Window Manager and SuperSU is preinstalled.
