You can use Odin to put CWM to ur phone, then flash Super user. All those files and step by step guideline is available as sticky notes in our forum.

[Q] System update on custom rom

What will happen if i install the system update while on a custom rom? In the past i have tried to do the update but it doesn't go threw while on a custom rom...what do I do? I am on jellybomb domination rom 5.0...why am i getting the system update..

The update is li3 its just minor updates for ics. But u will not be able to update from sprint or off ur pfone because u have a custom recovery. But u can easily run a rooted stock rom of that LI3 OTA or wat I suggest is go to jellybean!!!!!! The leak is out!!

I definitely recommend mobile Odin for this. Its worth buying just for this purpose. It will patch the ota file and make it flashable

The answer to your question is, nothing will happen. If you choose to accept the OTA notification, your phone will reboot, but nothing will install because you have a custom recovery.

Two ways.. Accept the update, let it go through process... It'll fail.. Reboot... notifications should not come back
Or... Use rom toolbox and edit the build.prop file, change the references to LG8 to LI3. (5 or 6 of them)... Reboot.. No worries...

Hi good day
Im philip eli nalzaro
I bought my unit Galaxy note 2 from singapore--
And im using my unit here in the Philippines-
And ive been wondering why is it until now I have no update for Jelly bean 4.1 2?
Can u help?
I saw the post that its by country
And Philippines is now included on the country with updates-
Im a Globe telecom subscriber
And according to Globe, updates on jelly bean 4.1.2 started last january and until now, No updates can be found on my phone-- whether I do it manually ir not-- and even KIES-

Download the latest firmware for your country or if a firmware is specifically available for your carrier. Then flash it. You will be able to get all future updates with ease.

Cleanrom question

I'm using the cleanrom and it says I have an update from at&t. But, when I download the update recommend using Wi-Fi, it's takes me into recovery and asks me if I want to tryst unknown zips. So I chose yes and it aborts. No one seems to want to help a person out so I came to this thread

Search before posting. Someone just asked this yesterday and 3 days ago. But to answer the question, you cannot update with a custom recovery installed. You can find the update in the development section and flash it.

VirginRom as of now is already on 4.4. Perhaps you downloaded an outdated version of it. The 4.4 kitkat update people are awaiting for is the one with TouchWiz.

So you now have VirginROM 4.4.x? Is it the same one that's been available in the Android Development section since like December? Because if so, it's the official 4.4 update and it IS out and has been for a while now.

Pardon the comments which seem like objections, but they are necessary if the content of your post is not exactly accurate. The GPE 4.4.2 has been available for a long time for this device. The official TW 4.4.2 is not available yet. Don't confuse the two. Also, of course the GPE update notification will occur if you're on the older version of Virgin Rom(4.3). But if you have a custom recovery it will fail to install most likely. Also, the title of your post fails to recognize the complexities of going from 4.3 to 4.4 on an older bootloader and having a fully working result.
I think your intentions were nice, but you may end up misleading people.

Mods can you delete this thread please.
