If you have another Galaxy SIII, You could try to backup the BOOT, RECOVERY, SYSTEM, USERDATA and restore them to a second Galaxy SIII (wiping the cache along the way). Once that is done you could more easily try things with less fear of loosing access to the data. You could then try to copy the backuped BOOT partition somewhere and patch it to add root at boot in all the situations. This could also help you access the logs (with adb logcat -b main for instance) to diagnose what is going on, and try fixes. For instance you could try to remove the problematic application. Denis.
