OTA - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

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?

+1 Usually the big fuss is will I be able to update because I am rooted.

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?

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.

If you have a custom recovery or if you have removed sprint bloatware it won't go through. Just root us fine though

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?

Cannot software update after rooting

Rooted my phone, now server tells me updated aren't supported because the phone is modified. I know there probably aren't any updates yet, but still want to know how to get around this just in case there is, thanks!

You need to odin back to stock.. download the .tar in development section and follow directions. Its easy. You will need this if you ever want to go back to stock or un root for warranty etc

Yea that's what I was afraid of, lol. Honest opinion though, is it worth going back to stock this early? I'm sure no updates have been implemented yet right?

Entirely up to you, honestly it isn't that hard to make a backup of all your apps with 'Helium' and restore onto the stock rom, etc. It's the challenge everyone faces when flashing ROMs. I would wait until there's an update and see what changes it brings before reverting. But you will want to download the stock .tar for instances you need to go back to stock.
Is there a way to root the device again and still maintain having all blotware removed? Or will it add back all carrier and third party apps?

If you did a nand backup, it will install the bloat again and also with the .tar file unless stated bloat has been removed.

All official updates are complete with bloat, the only way is to install the update and remove the bloat afterwards or wait for someone to release a debloated rooted build.

Just wait. When an official update is released a debloated version usually appears on the forums that is prerooted and ready for CWM/TWRP.
I'm also getting the same message. Is it because super user is installed or because of my custom recovery? Or both? If I remove super user will it work? Or would I also need to flash the stock recovery?
I'm still on the stock rom

It's because we rooted, but uninstalling it won't reset it because of the ticker, anything installed after the factory condition will show it as custom.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
There is no official stock (yet) so your stuck like that
But if your rooted in the first place why does it matter you can install any firmware/software updates yourself
Official stock is out. Check the general forum.

Will the app "[root] Triangle Away" will solve this problem?

Is there an update.zip?

Is there an update.zip I can use to root my phone from stock recovery? Iv had my phone for 3 weeks, and havent been able to sit still enough to root it with the computer. I know that it has been asked if you can root without computer and the answer was no. Was just curious if it was possible for someone to make an update.zip for people like me

Using an update.zip to flash in recovery would almost be like rooting without a computer.... wouldn't it?
Yes, it would be rooting without a computer. But im wanting to know if someone is able to make one? Or is it not possible?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
the update.zip would need to be signed by Samsung to be flashed through the stock recovery...
Will never happen...
Sorry about that but you need a computer in order to root.. unless an app exists if their is a vulnerability in the stock rom.

Will this revert everything back to stock? I mean will root be lost, and Knox reset? I've been reading some posts that just rooting the phone makes you lose the ability to get OTA updates. I actually can confirm as all I did was root, and now checking for updates says my device has been modified, and I can't get them.

Hmm. I know this is so far in the future I'm sure, but I wonder if just having Knox changed will prevent OTAs. Just curious really, so no need to rush to a fix for Knox. LOL

Latch on to a good developer and buy him a beverage every now and then and Official OTAs will lag behind what is released here in these forums.

Hey thanks for the file saved my ass after a botched recovery install. I hope someone can post this file up on another website because last night i tried to download using the slow (NONE PAY) method at http://www.filefactory.com/file/5u0ud54hxu3l/N900TUVUBMI7_N900TTMBBMI7_TMB.zip
and waited four hrs (at 3am) for the download to fail with a server error after 4.5 hrs. So i felt better to pay the website for their unlimited speed downloads. Well that was a crock of S*** because i still had to wait for over an hour to complete the download. I hope someone will post this somewhere where it can be easier to get so you don't suffer my grief.
I do want to thank deeznutz1977 for the file because without it I would still be stuck in a bootlopp at startup after installing twrp recovery that apparently has some real issues. Thanks for saving my bacon deeznutz1977.
when you apply via odin is this PDA or PHONE?
Put the tar in PDA alohas Rob

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.
