Help me get from 4.0.4 to stock 4.2 please. I am rooted

Hey folks,
I rooted my GS3 months ago and recently tried downloading the OTA update. The update failed and now I am stuck at 4.0.4 and when I tried to update I have a grayed out continue update option. I don't mind manually flashing the update via usb but I want to stick with just a stock rom just rooted so I can remove the bloatware and use Titanium Backup. Could someone point me in the right direction please?

Try getting a clue and posting in the right section moron.

Hey, he's just trying to fit in with the rest of the stuck-up XDA followers whom have a false sense of entitlement lol.
For the OP, 4.2 is not out just yet. I'm sure you meant 4.1.1 JellyBean. Take a look here, it's a great tutorial to get to the new update for the brand NEW stock GS3 Touchwiz Jellybean. It allows you to keep your root as well:

Now, wasn't that easier than just telling him that he is an idiot? Yes, it's the wrong section, but damn... some people.

Wow. Attitudes like that are certainly NOT what this or any forum are about. Who the hell do you think you are to think you are so damn entitled? Quick tip, GTFO. The guy doesn't know so cut him a little slack.

Also good advice. I'm sure there are a few stock based TW ROMs in the development section that the OP can flash. I wouldn't know as I'm an AOSP head. Anyway, the OTA update probably failed due to the fact that he's rooted and probably removed some bloat. My suggestion to the OP would be to flash any of the JB Touchwiz ROMs in the subforum I mention if that's what he wants. There's also tutorials floating around on how to do that if he's unsure of what to do.
Also, thread reported for movement.

Silly Humans. All you had to do is report that it was in the wrong section and one of us would move it out of Development and into the appropriate section. Oh wait, that is what 1 user did do.
I was going to clean this thread out but instead, I'll leave all the responses so that if anyone comes across this, they'll know what not to do and how not to respond to threads started in the wrong section.
Moved to Q&A

Thanks Wood. I have that magical mod power on other forums and miss it when I visit forums I don't have the power in. The responses some people give are just aggravating.

Thanks guys!
Sorry for the wrong forum. I tried posting in another forum but it said I was restricted because I had less than 10 posts. With your help I am successfully at 4.1. :good:

If you want to keep root i would recommend installing root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3.tar.md5 from odin assuming you have a att phone. This is probably the easiest way.

And in the official JB thread in the general forum, folks are telling people to go to the development forum for root info.

I don't think the old way works exactly the same. That's why Rushing made this thread. For anyone questioning.

Don't think it would be a good idea for you to flash any room onto any phone if you can't even ask a question in the right thread my friend, just an advice

You're asking a question right? There's a Q&A section for a reason.

Hey Doc has a thread about the LTE variant... I would say ask there..BUT your anwser is NO I do not think you should flash as the firmware and such is different for your LTE .....
Doc's thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2308514
PS. You could also post in the header of the thread to ask a MOD to close this or move to Q&A don't want to see you get flamed....

You flashed a rom on your old GS3 and it got hard brick? I dont mean to sound rude.. I mean I can help when I can but it is obvious that you didnt know about a Q/A section of this forum how can you go and flash something without reading and having knowledge? The T999L is to new. Unless people have confirm that what works and what doesn't

Yup. Wrong section. There is a specific forum for the E4GT. I have asked the mods to move this post there.

Thanks so much. I tried to post in the revolt thread in the dev area and since I didnt have enough posts I figured, I couldnt post in the E4GT area either.
Thanks again

You should be able to post in all the E4GT threads except Development and Original Development. They are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281

Anyone have any ideas?

Try flashing back to a ICS rooted stock ROM once your modem is set update prl then try flashing revolt again.

No luck either....

I am guessing all people have moved to the Note 3.....I can tell you in the Android development section and the original android development, there was a ton of dead links... Pretty sad to see this...
Oh well....
Mods need to pick it up!!!!

I just tried this link myself. Downloaded flawlessly. Maybe the server was down at the time? And I certainly haven't moved on to the note 3 lol. Development for this device isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
