Tried to root with the Odin tool over at xda.somehow it didn't work and the phone hung up or locked up during the process and now I'm stuck at what do. I reset my phone to factory (only had it since yesterday) and now my wifi won't turn on. How can I get either the flash to go through on Odin or reset it bck to stock and get my wifi back and running?

Thanks! I was actually able to root it successfully the second attempt, I just needed to run Odin as administrator. Now I'm looking a good stable rom for it....any suggestions?

I'm currently running deTmobiliezed. It's TouchWiz based, but has customization choices in the installer. I want to mention that I haven't had any luck installing this in Clockwork, I had to install TWRP and then flash. Another favorite of mine is ParanoidKANGDroid.

What is twrp? Also, is there a cyanogen release for the s3 out that would work? How hard is it to,install? I've been on iPhone for a few years so I'm a little rusty haha. Also, is there a way i can double check to see for sure if I'm rooted? Pretty sure I am as goo manager installed correctly... Thanks for your help

Well if you've got SuperSU/Super User installed and you can grant an app root permission and you can get into your custom recovery, you're rooted.

TWRP is a custom recovery like Clockwork Mod.

Yes, CM 10.2 just released for the S3.
