But I have a T989 from T-mobile
Running a custom ROM.
I'm running darkside ucle2
Does it matter?

Yeah don't take the update. It will cause problems if you're on a custom rom. If you want the OTA update you will have to Odin everything back to stock. Otherwise, if you have titanium then go and freeze device management to prevent that dialogue from coming back up. There's really no reason to take OTA updates because its much easier to just flash a rooted stock rom rather than Odin back to stock.

I think its much better let the devs take our OTA update and prepare it for our phones....

Just freeze device management and reboot and you wont get those notifications anymore

My understanding is that recovery stays in a separate partition and whatever you do to it does not affect getting an OTA, is that right?
Also, what if my phone is rooted using the Zerg exploit or whatever method, can I still get an OTA?
So basically I think my questions is, what ultimately decides whether my phone can get an OTA, or not?
if you are on stock ROM, you will get it just fine
but you might loose ROOT after it finish the upgrade
if you are on Custom ROM, you wont get OTA
You can get the ota even on a custom ROM. As long as you have the stock recovery.

How would you have a custom ROM with stock recovery? I've never rooted a Samsung phone since this is my first and I'm waiting to root it, so unless Samsung is different I don't see how.

You can flash stock recovery using odin

I'm sure within a couple days there will be a custom rom with the new features. that's an assumption but its always been like that on other phones I have had. Hopefully that's the case with this phone also.
I have stock rooted ROM with CWM recovery, is that okay? Or do I have to have a stock recovery?

you will get the notification for the ota, your phone will download it but when it boots into recovery to flash it and its not the stock recovery, it will just give an error and you will probably have to pull the battery to reboot. i did this on the nexus s. if i remember right i never got the ota notififcation again either after it failed.
I know there are methods out there that can flash the entire phone back to stock (kernel, ROM, recovery) but that involves wiping everything. Is there a way to flash back the stock recovery only since I'm already on stock ROM and kernel?
Big thanks...
I wonder where it puts the update after it downloads it. Would be nice to grab it and maybe install without reverting to stock...

It goes to data/cache if I remember right. And there will be rooted roms posted within hours of the ota so its really nothing to even worry about

There is a stock recovery posted in the dev section you can flash in Odin

Found that and it works. Thanks!
you can keep your phone more up to date by flashing roms as opposed to waiting for an OTA. galaxy s4g is still stuck on froyo. Epic 4g just got gingerbread.
Has has anyone received the update?

What is the update supposed to do or fix?
right i have my gnex GSM unlocked with CWM rooted, on JB 4.1, im not getting the OTA reliese,
I've tried looking on how to update to stock 4.1.1 but i have no idea on what im doing now lol
Should i just wait longer for the OTA or flash it,
if i have to flash it how do i do it coz i keep getting errors.
Im on build JRN84D

Since you have CWM installed, you won't be able to auto-install off an OTA anyways. You have to flash it manually.

Read all stickies in development and return to bone stock and wait for your precious ota or just stay where you are at and wait for another rom to flash.
good day.
Wanted to know if you will still get ota updates with a stock rooted phone?

Yes you will. But you'll lose root and CWM of you accept it.
Edit: if you have superuser paid version it does have ota survival but its not guaranteed to keep root.

On stock rooted Roms and some TW Roms yes. But i usually take the update on my stock rooted Rom. It tries to install and restarts the phone then i get a android with triangle screen. But, i pull the battery and restart and all is fine. No more ota notifications and everything remains the same...

You know if you read in the general section. There is an ota notification kill. Then you dont have to worry about that. But to each their own.

Has anyone tried Rootkeeper with this OTA? If so, can you provide feedback on the results?
"Good news tonight for AT&T subscribers, as a number of readers are now reporting that Samsung's update to Android 4.1.1 is now available for the Galaxy S III via Kies. We've reached out to the carrier to learn whether any specific improvements are in store, but it's not like we need to tell you that users will be immersed in the goodies of Google Now and the performance enhancements from Project Butter. Word from members of xda-developers reveals that the update weighs in at a substantial 738MB. For those keeping score, AT&T's update to Jelly Bean for the Galaxy S III follows previous deployments from Sprint and T-Mobile..." -Engadget.

You can also use mobile odin pro and enable everroot. If you maintain root, you can use goomanager from the market to install twrp recovery. Seems like there are a number of ways to do this, I just found this the easiest way.
I downloaded from samsungupdates sites and install de .tar file with mobile odin pro... and i kept root sou if u wanna be stock but keeping root i recommend you this way its easy!

Just got my S3 2 weeks ago. Never rooted it. Figured I'd wait until JB update. (Just want to root for tethering, not interested in custom firmware or mods). Can someone post a link to or recommend the safest/easiest wait to root since JB 4.1.1 update?
Thanks

I suggest you go back to stock firmware and then try the code. Just make a nandroid and backup your pictures and stuff.
Some say it being rooted will make a code note work. Never tried myself

Thanks however Is this a fact because I would like to avoid flashing back to stock if possible. I guess it would be the safest thing to do but definitely would prefer not to.
