Now that its in proper place, I will. Yes, you can root the same way as before. Odin CWM, flash Supesu thru CWM. Been confirmed that this will work.

Just checked for software update and downloading it right now. Its 94.45MB. Anyone know what this update is for?
Finished downloading and try to install but failed. Is it because my phone is rooted?

Edit.: updated no problem now we haz brightness slider on notification

You are correct sir, brain dead here this morn. Actually, I thought even a modded stock rom was not a custom. I stand corrected.
Thank you.

Mine with TWRP and rooted was successfully updated.
I am now unrooted, superuser app is gone, and stock recovery is in place.
Base band is now T999UVLH2
Build number IMM76D.T999UVALH2
Possibility of rerooting after this update at all? Now I'm stuck with all this.. **** no one cares about...

OTA

anyone take the ota yet http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/11/07/sprint-galaxy-note-ii-gets-its-first-ota-update-build-l900vpaljc-brings-multi-window-and-more/ Will it kill root?
I think it might take a while to trickle down through all the servers. you won't know if it kills root until someone gets it and tries it

A guy I work with suggested downloading OTA Rootkeeper and using that to not lose root, I'm hoping that works
I never understood why make a big fuss over losing root? How hard was it to get root in the first place?

Are you on cwm or twrp? Then you can just wait for someone to pull it and make it flashable with root already added
as long as i am unrooted and have a stock bootloader, i'll receive the OTA correct?
Really?

Well, if you're feeling up to it, you could test it for the rest of us. No one seems to have reported back about anything yet. I'm sure that it will break root though.

i didnt go back and reread it but i think thats what garwynn tried and he lost root.
This is kinda required to get the OTA, isn't it?
If I understand correctly, the OTA will fail if rooted? Or is that it will fail if CWM/TW recovery is in place?

It will fail if you have cwm or twrp in place.....you need the stock recovery for it.....I think it will work even if you have root, but your root will be lost once you update

Thanks.. I thought it was one of those, just couldn't remember which. I may just hold off until I see what others are doing. I am going to look for a nice TouchWiz ROM that allows me to theme it.
Once the awesome Devs here at XDA get their hands on the code, it won't be long before we have a rootable Stock 4.3..
I've been wondering.
Do I need a stock recovery and a stock ROM to update or can I be running a custom ROM such as digiblur and update using stock recovery?

I'd just throw that under the "do not attempt" category. Odds are that while trying to apply the update, stock recovery would detect some assets that don't belong in your current build and abort the update. Also, if this update was successful and something messed up, you would now have no custom recovery. You would have to Odin back to whatever software version possible.

Does anyone have the stock MK4 recovery pulled? If any one has please help a brother out.
do you flash this with twrp or odin? yes i am a newb. i have stock mc2 with twrp not rooted.

I think he has a rooted Note 2 with 4.1.2 and therefore he couldn't get OTA. He asked how does he update to 4.3...

Yes that is correct I'm rooted and I'm unable to update. I got a custom kernel and recovery. Other then that, everything else is stock.
If you want just stock then download it from Sam mobile firmwares and flash with odin. There are a couple of stock flashable roms in the n7105 section but they all require a custom kernel for wifi. Personaly I'm using ditto note and loving it. Just download and flash through any custom recovery
