Look at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576349&highlight=root+4+0+4
i have made a CWM flashable su.
if anyone wants. instead of going through all the mount, and copy process,
you will just need to flash the su from the zip file,
go to play store and install the Superuser.apk and then from that update su to the latest version.
if interested, let me know.

I've seen and answered this question quite a few times so I thought I'd just write down the procedure once so everyone can find it.
So you want the latest OTA and want it rooted but you have no idea how to get there? I can help.
Prior to yesterday I was running rooted stock with TWRP recovery. The OTA failed of course.
In order to install it and root I did the following.
1) install rooted stock image via odin (found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426) This re-nstalled stock recovery.
2) install and run voodoo ota root keeper from the play store to preserve root.
3) took OTA download and let it install
4) ran voodoo OTA rootkeeper to restore root again
5) Install goo manager from play store
6) install twrp via goo manager
7) made a rooted stock nandroid backup.
The above procedure didn't wipe any of my data or settings because I came from rooted stock to begin with. I just used odin to restore the recovery and missing bloatware..
Hope this helps
Do you have the clockworkmkd recovery file I need to flash through odin? Does this mean I don't have to use adb?

I didn't use ADB. I used twrp for my recovery, but you can install rom manager and cwm recovery with it instead of goo manager and twrp.
I lost my root when i did the update...
can you give step by step on how to root again after the update and install the google universal search?
thanks...
Flashed the rooted stock image via Odin, update failed at 27%. Any ideas?
No idea. Just reporting on what worked for me.

If you've disabled or uninstalled stock at&t and Sammy apps (like Flipboard, clocks, etc.) the update will fail. You need to enable/reinstall stock apps.
Hi, I used Voodoo Root Keeper to regain root. However, in my device status it is now saying modified instead of normal. How can I fix that?
You can't. Don't worry about it.

It looked like reflashing the rooted stock rom did reinstall the bloat I removed.

worked fine for me
There's a much easier method to get root back after the update.
Flash CWM/TWRP
Flash the file I attached below.
Install Busybox from market
Reboot
Done deal
It does work. I tested earlier today from G1 stock unrooted. Pulled and installed the update, flashed CWM. Flashed the attached file, busybox download and profit. Then used gooomanager to change to TWRP
Here's the original site I read about this method way back when...
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/easy-guide-root-att-galaxy-s3/
Gunny's method does work, just giving another option
OP guides worked for me. Thanks
I like the new keyboard, less errors.

Yes, it does work. Get a custom recovery back (CWM) and flash the file I attached in my earlier post. Saves the time from flashing a stock rooted ROM and going from there as a starting point.
Hey guys
Before 4.2 (and thus, 4.2.1) release, I had my 4.1.2 Jelly Bean Galaxy Nexus (TAKJU) rooted and it felt really nice, with programable underclocking to save battery and stuff. Now on 4.2.1 Jelly Bean, I cant root it using the same method I used back on 4.1.2 (I used GNexus Toolkit V9.1 and Now I'm trying with GNexus Toolkit V10.1)
What can I do to root it?
Thanks!
dont use toolkits, do it the right way. fastboot oem unlock(if your bootloader is locked), fastboot flash a custom recovery, flash either the su binaries or a custom rom in your custom recovery, reboot and profit.

Grab the latest SuperSU.zip & fastboot boot a custom recovery to install the zip. (Assuming your bootloader is unlocked)
:Edit:
Using this method get the update zip from the OP in this thread
I have bootloader unlocked. I'm new to flashing and stuff, how exactly do I do all that stuff? I (theoretically) have SuperSU installed. Back on my 4.1.2 root I had clockwork mod recovery, is it lost?

Theoretically? Either it's installed or it isn't. Check your installed apps list for SuperSU. Open a terminal window or file explorer and look for the su binary.

Do you have the su binary in either /system/bin or /system/xbin? What does the app say when you open SuperSU?

Reflash supersu zip (refered by 3rdstring) in cwm again, you no longer have the correct su binary, which supersu and any other app that requires root need.

I think the steps on galaxys4root.com may be outdated or used properly on an older version of Android. Try CF Auto-Root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2294005

No. However, CF Auto-Root will flash stock recovery. If you want to install custom ROMs, simply re-flash CWM Recovery.

Once you are rooted you have to choose which recovery you want. Twrp is the most compatible with most Roms out there. To get cwm you need to install ROM manager from the market. The option to flash recovery will be inside. If you want twrp download goo manager and the option to flash will also be in the app. Good luck!

You can also get either TWRP or CWM as a Tar file that can be flashed in Odin.
You can also download the .img files and flash either with Flashify.
There are a lot of ways to flash recoveries. Each with specific advantages for specific situations.
Ok thanks a bunch to all of ya in my situation I am just trying to get root on my phone it is a t-mobile S4 its running 4.2.2 it seemed easy enough on galaxyS4root.com I think I guessed wrong so I will definitely try cf auto root though I am not done trying yet so again thanks for your time

Since your intent is to flash a custom ROM (based on your other thread here), there is no need to root prior to flashing the ROM. Just flash the desired custom ROM, as they are already rooted.
Also, probably no need to start a new thread, as you've already caused confusion by doing so. I wasted my time responding to your other thread (how to install custom recovery) when you already figured it out (you didn't update the other thread).
