Just as the voice of other, you can flash on a rooted device, the procedure would be:
flash stock recovery > apply ota > flash recovery via odin > flash latest root from recovery in recovery.

Can you actually flash it on the rooted phone? And what is the change log?

Thanks for this!
Watch this video if you're rooted and want to update:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KeZx65twLk
It will get you stock recovery back and you can manually install the update. Then just watch my how to root video after to get root back
Also, here is a mirror for the file:
http://qbking77.rainmotorsports.net/GSIII/04646f9535b3.update_SPH-L710_LG2_to_LG8.zip
Here is a video with more info on LG8 and a review of it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKL_GWvsvCo

LG8? The one on Sprint's site says LG4, as of 7/25.

So why can't this be done on a rooted phone?

Yup, because you have to flash the stock recovery via Odin to accept the OTA. Then you have to re-root by flashing back to CWM recovery and the teamwin root zip. Follow the QBKing77 video above to guide you through it

See my post above for complete cut to the chase instructions, or watch qbking's video. Everything you need is there in both cases.

Does it matter that I'm running CM10? Or do I need to be on a stock rom to update?

Update won't finish on cwm, has to be stock 3e recovery. You can keep root by dl'ing voodoo ota root keeper and using it. Check about phone, see which version of software you have.

If you have CALEM then it's probably trying to upgrade you to CALG1, which is the update that removes universal search. If you're already on CALG1 it's something new...otherwise it's a few weeks old.

So do I keep ignoring it? Should I just flash an image that has the update and root?

I would flash the stock rooted version of lg1, find herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 .
Also in that post is the apk got the universal search that the update strips out.

Thank you for all the help. One more question. Is there a way to remove CWM and go back to stock recovery, use root keeper, do the update and restore root again? I guess I'm trying to avoid having to redo all my settings, wallpapers, etc.
BTW, checked and I do have CALEM.

Flashing the root-injected LG1 through Odin as mrhaley30705 suggested will preserve all your apps and settings. If you're worried, do a nandroid first on to your external SD card (or pull it to your computer) before you flash, just in case. But you won't lost your apps and settings because it leaves /data untouched.

[Q] Rooting CLI5

I just upgraded from a samsung captivate to to the i747. I am familiar with the rooting process and flashing roms. However with this device I noticed I have CLI5 installed on it. I can find very little about this build. Can I root this with the standard methods? Or is this one I will have to wait on for a while. This is an AT&T phone.

I may have to try it, I'm afraid of borking my new phone, since this is a new enough release, know body has any info on if any current methods work. lol

You can flash CWM with ODIN and then flash SuperSU or Superuser. It will increase your download count but that can be fixed with Triangle Away from Chainfire.

The process does not install a kernel and when it is done, you'll be left with stock recovery with root.

You can flash cmw through odin and then SuperSU. It work for me.

I accepted it and it failed on CWM. Check to see if you have MB1 baseband. You may have missed the failed status 7 message.

You need Stock Recovery for Flashing an OTA update. Else it would fail!

Someone posted that it fixes an overheating issue on the MA6 firmware and baseband. So edit your build.prop and change all MA6 occurrences with MB1 save, exit, reboot (that will stop the update nag) then wait for a firmware and baseband flashable to show up.

If you *need* the update now and have CWM/TWRP, flash stock recovery zip from freeza, reboot and take update, then re-root via team epic method or cf-auto-root. Took about 3 minutes total for me.
Or wait until someone with more skillz than me uploads a CWM/TWRP flashable zip.

[Q] lost 3g and wifi

Hi,
yesterday i was updating mi epic touch 4g, i did it first with odin and it worked fine from 4.0.2 to 4.1.2 , then I did installed Kies and it updated fine to a Official ROM and updated te baseband and the rom (or something like thaht )
Odin was working fine and kies too
today I was traying to install a custom rom founded in this link
I followed each step
when i was doing the "click the PDA button and browse for the StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5 file." odin did it fine but when my cel rebooted the screen said "Galaxy SII i9000" and showed a yellow triangle
i went into download mode and I did install a "FD16 StockRom Rooted" (it allways save me) but now Kies showme the info bellow

Odin and Kies can't connect the phone any more
any one can help me?
(sorry for my english, I'm just learning)
thanks in advance.

Your phone rebooted to the yellow triangle because you flashed using pc odin and fllashed el26 over a jb rom. The el26 is used to flash from recovery. Not sure why your phone said i9100, but you may have dodged a bullet there. If your phone is the epic 4g touch(sph-d710), then make sure any kernel you flash is sph-d710 as well. From the sound of it, you may still have cwm. Have you tried booting into recovery? Power button+ volume up? If you flashed el26 and nothing successfully since, try that. Once you get into there, wipe data, cache, dalvik, and flash your ROM. PA requires an ics modem as well, so if you updated your baseband to jb, you'll have to flash an ics modem as well. Good luck!
Edit: sorry I may have misunderstood. If you flashed a rooted FD16, it won't let you update via Kies. Your have to unroot. But you don't need to update. Just use mobile odin to flash el26, reboot into recovery, wipe everything, and flash Paranoid Android and an ics modem.

EL26 Cwm was made from the International i9100. That is why it says that. It seems like he didn't flash a stock kernel back... Maybe.
