I have a samsung galaxy s3 from att.

Model: SGH-I747
Android Version: 4.4.2

Is it rootable? Ive looked in countless places and they all bring up the sprint version. I've tried following the sticky post here and SuperOneClick wasn't responding. Yes, I have my phone set to dev mode and USB debugging. I couldn't verify if my phone was, so could someone with more knowledge help me and let me know if it is? Please & Thank you!

What method did you use to root your phone, and do you have a custom recovery installed?

In the end I went through more forums and through here and found towelroot.com I went with that and it was an easy root. Other than root I've yet to do anything else related to roms or recoveries. Honestly I'm scared to mess with it that far lol.
