By
Let's take a look the whole assembly inside the Google Pixel 10 as IFixit once again showed us the step by step teardown guide. You'll be surprised of how the layout of the main board, battery and camera being neatly stack.

Easiest Way to Root Galaxy S3 i747 (AT&T) runs in ICS I747UCALG1

By
 If you already upgraded your Galaxy S3 to the latest I747UCALG1 ICS 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and wanted to root it so that you can make use a lot of your device by installing any apps you desired.

 Well here's the easiest method, the best part of this rooting process is that - it will not trip the binary counter from the phone's security system. You would still be able to check for ota updates (although should just return the status of your software is up to date since it is a totally stock ROM just with root injected).  Minimizing the hassles from resetting it once if you want to unroot it or completely return it back to its original factory firmware - for future use in-case in need of warranty.

I already mentioned this rooting guide from the previous ICS build I747UCALEM, which is a safest method to avoid the risk of losing the phone's IMEI number.

So, again this root method which already proven works on AT&T US version. The idea of this rooting technique is simply injecting a rooted kernel image from the official released ICS I747MVLALH1 firmware.

Thanks and all credits must go to creepyncrawly (XDA-developer recognized contributor) for creating this rooted stock ICS I747UCALG1 firmware.

Grab the rooted I747UCALG1 stock firmwar

Rooting Guide

2. Boot the Galaxy S3 into download mode screen for Odin.
Turn it off, once completely shut down  hold down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME DOWN' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 2 seconds until a WARNING! Screen appears. Press the 'VOLUME UP' button to continue or enter Download Mode.
3. Connect the phone to PC via USB. Then make sure you can see as phone "Added" in Odin log box or highlight the COM:ID once the device is detected,
4. In Odin window, DO Not tick 'RE-Partition'  only Tick 'Auto Reboot' and 'F. Reset Time' and nothing else.
5. Now load the root system image root69.stock_ATT_I747UCALG1.tar on the PDA button.
6. Click on "Start" to flash the stock ROM with root system image.
7. Wait until the flashing finishes and the phone completely reboots.

How to Unroot I747UCALG1?
If you need to Unroot in the future, you can simply revert it back to
original stock ROM and completely removed any trace of rooting.

All you need to do is grab the Original, Unrooted stock I747UCALG1 from here:
/SGH-I747_ATT_I747UCALG1_I747ATTALG1_Original
Use the same process above, this will not trip the binary counter of your phone since this is an official firmware from Samsung itself released from Kies and OTA.
