Samsung has blocked rooting the international version of the galaxy S3 GT-I9300 by using SafeRoot method, which was completely safe, easy and it doesn't void the warranty of the phone nor trip flash (binary) counter.I have found a way to make "SafeRoot" root the galaxy S3 GT-I9300 on the latest android 4.3 jelly bean like any other devices.Requirements :I9300_Root_Kernel file
I9300_MK6_Kernel file
Odin3
Installed Samsung Kies or Samsung mobile USB driver
Saferoot file
Instructions :All the process WON'T wipe your data, but back it up just incase this process corrupt your data.
Flash Root_Kernel.tar.md5 file by odin3 in PDA or AP section.
Make sure Re-Partition is NOT selected.
Root your device using SafeRoot method by following this guide : [No Warranty Void] Safe Root Android 4.3 for Galaxy S3/S4 Note 2
Flash back the current kernel of your firmware MK6 until Samsung update it by Odin3
Congratulation, your galaxy S3 GT-I9300 is rooted on the latest version of Android 4.3 jelly bean without tripping flash (binary) counter.YT video link : =3gYjoW22h7cNotes:Download and install manually busybox if the tool is failed to install it.
Use this guide at your own risk
This process and kernel files ONLY for the international version GT-I9300 and ONLY for Android 4.3 jelly bean.
Normally this process will continue to work until Samsung starts to push Android 4.4 kitkat to the S3 (DON'T use it on 4.4 kitkat, it will brick your device).
You will not be able to receive OTA update, but you can update your device at any time by Kies or Odin3.
This process is tested by me and worked on all the latest Android 4.3 jelly bean firmwares.
To unroot your device --> Open SuperSU app / Settings / Full UnRoot.
