No need to unroot. The update will still work even with root. However, you need to flash back the stock recovery, or the update won't install automatically.
If you get OTA root keeper https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper by supercurio you won't even loose root after the update, well thats the idea. Our phone is supported and I'm waiting to try it out.

Flashed back to stock recovery,installed OTA Rootkeeper, selected "temporary unroot",checked for systems update, says"your system is up to date",still on 4.0.2 ICL53F. Any suggrstions?

Do you have the GSM version or the CDMA version?
ICL53F is the latest update for the GSM version. If you have the CDMA version, just update it manually. Look here.

You can run apps that require root...
Some examples: Root Explorer, Light Flow, AdFree, Market Enabler, Quick Boot, Titanium Backup

You can run root apps, but don't have a custom ROM. If you don't need root apps, then don't root
Could be wrong but last I checked 4.0.2 was the last official OTA for the CDMA nexus as well. Only two or so people received 4.0.4 and that was a fluke. But like I said, I could be wrong.

This is true. 4.0.2 is the latest official OTA for GSM and CDMA. Until 4.0.4 is rolling out to everyone, I don't call it "official".

It may not be widespread yet, but if there is an official download link available (i.e., like this http://android.clients.google.com/p....signed-mysid-IMM30B-from-ICL53F.659e0a8f.zip), in my opinion it's pretty official.

In order to update OTA you must have a stock rom with all the original apps, plus the stock recovery.
Also, there should be an update to JB in the next few weeks.

You can update your rooted stock LG8 to LI3 by following the procedure posted here.

I'm gonna guess and say the Jellybean update is gonna be 4.1.1 and not 4.1.2.
Man dont bother updating to li3. It sucks. Countless peoples auto corrects no longer work and theres barely any changes. They installed swype into the phones in the li3 but you cannot use it at all.. its glitchy

No doubt, I wish I hadnt updated to li3, The Swype keyboard is not nearly as good as the Swype Beta keyboard and the " Smilies" key doesnt work half the time! Wait for the next update!
Any idea on when the next update might come? I've just been hearing this month. It used to be all over my flipboard, now I hardly see anything about a s3 update. Didn't now if Samsung is pushing it further now like when it was rumored that we would get JB back in August.
Woke up in middle of the night, saw this waiting for me. Had synced via Kies about 6 hours earlier and it wasn't there. Haven't noticed any differences in very brief use, and I am going back to sleep. Sammobile has it up now as well.
EDIT:
T-Mobile now has a post up about the update here: http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4446

i dont think this is the 4.1.2. i installed it and still 4.1.1. In sammobile it says 4.1.2, you can download it now.
No major changes. It appears to be a minor update. If you don't get it via OTA or Kies, you can download and manually install the update.
Check the Sammobile site, they have the 4.1.2 T999 update. the file size is 734mb.

the baseband version # changed. I checked around and found that LTE is no longer showing in the phones network mode menu. (it showed up when we did the 4.1.1 jb install) It is now back to gsm/wcdma, gsm only and wcdma only.

This is my thoughts too... I'm not flashing it... Or any update for that matter as 4.2.1 is working beautifully on my phone with rootbox

I let the update run and reboot. Since it was small I assumed it was to fix that bricking problem I read about a month or so ago. I'm still on stock JB non-rooted until someone makes a ROM with reliable wifi calling.
PS: Bluetooth A2DP still sounds like garbage on my motorola headsets. The crackling is so bad on my S305, that if the headset is at the other end of the room from you, it sounds like someone is opening a bag of chips.
How to disable "phone modified" message from this update?
Recieved the update today as well. Thinkng it was 4.1.2 so I went ahead and updated it. Well unfortunately the update seems to be a "security improvement" for rootes and flashed devices. (Maybe to prevent th from getting 4.1.2, not sure).. Here's the problem I went to check for update and that annoying pop up that my device is modified came up.. so I opened up Triangle Away and reset the flash count to zero and click on"system modified workaround", rebooted amd nothing. Device status still shows as modified. I was always able to get it to say to normal using triangle away. This new update prevents it. Any help? Thanks

You have to be 100% stock (ROM, kernel, and recovery) in order to flash ota updates
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Yep ^^^ But also need to be unRooted as well.
You can use OTA Rootkeeper from Supercurio and preserve root that way. Save SU, temp unroot, take OTA, reboot, open OTArk and restore root. That is as long as you have what he said above in place as well.
So I updated to 4.1.2 recently and decided I'd simply root my phone. Now today I have the AT&T updater telling me I have an update pending. I'm already on 4.1.2 and the only possible reason I could conceive as to why this is popping up is because during rooting something must have changed and that flagged the updater as me having an obsolete firmware. Anyone else getting this?

Thanks, I have TWRP installed so do I have to reinstall the stock recovery and then continue the update and whatnot?
Don't waste your time with the ATT update; just flash almost any custom ROM, and you will have all the benefits plus much more...

I agree, but if you want to upgrade, use cf auto root to reinstall stock recovery, use full unroot in super su, then run update

If you are going to stick with stock, you may want to use autoruns to disable the check for updates. That way at least the notification will go away.

You will not be able to update via OTA on a cwm-flashed ROM. It's just not gonna happen.

Not for the OTA, no. You can't update via OTA unless you have the 9505G. Other versions of the S4 though, you have to rely on the CWM-flashable zips that various devs post. I wasn't saying you can't have the latest version, just that you can't get them direct from Google unless you have the Play Edition device.

Hey, I understand. If you flash an AT&T ROM it will say you have an I337m, Sprint ROM it will say L720, intl ROM it will say i9505, etc. Also, if you use the XDA app to post you will notice that the signature will change depending on what carrier's ROM you are posting from.
Thanks and that like you said it shows.
