Hi guys , im on CID 044 and i've heard official update is going to be launched by the end of november, currently im rooted and ive installed Custom recovery and unlocked Bootloader the rest is stock, will i be able to update to Jelly Bean 4.1.0 by simply just unrooting and flashing stock recovery? without flashing or reinstalling unrooted stock rom?
Thank you
Yeah, as long as you haven't installed mods or or deleted things.
You should receive the notification without changing anything back, just change it back before installing.
great! Thank you so much sir im pretty much good to go then thanks!!!!

So i update to the new Evo update and i get stuck on a black screen with an android guy confused as hell with a triangle...whas mean?
what state was the phone in before u tried to update. was it rooted, custom recovery, completely stock?
...another victim.
You tried booting into recovery, but stock recovery is no recovery, marked by the triangle and red !. If you're still s-off, flash a recovery, CWM or amon_ra, then flash a rom.

That's stock recovery
I would say pull the battery and leave it for 10 minutes or so. Worked for me once in the past. Hope that helps. Good luck!
it was rooted with the newest (nightly) of CM7, i booted into clockwork mod recovery cause i wanted to switch to stock so i could recieve new update. so i cleared all my data then performed a recovery that put me to the stock ROM (rooted) then cleared phone again to have a total fresh install and then searched for the update and downloaded it and tried installing it but its all like, HEY YOU CANT DO THAT DLFJOEIFJDKFJDF. Halp.

If you're still s-off, do what I said in my first post.
Whats s-off sry for my ignorance, for I am just a casual phone flasher.

Boot into the bootloader, turn your phone off, while turning it on, hold the vol+down key till you see a white screen with androids skateboarding. At the top you'll see either s-on or off; If s-off, reflash a recovery via PC36IMG, then flash another rom.
okay, i am s-off so basically find a stock ROM flash it then check for the update?

No...the rooted stock OTA roms aren't out yet. Probably by the end of the day. Just flash a rom and just coast till now; like I said, virus should have it by the end of the day.
Okay, I mean my phone works and everything I'm just on the stock rooted ROM (previous to the newest 2.3) I'm just a little confused as to how its not letting me update, I thought the fact that i was rooted didn't really matter cause it would just unroot and wipe out everything.
Triangle Update Error
I am getting the same triangle update error. I have a rooted phone using unrevoked 3. My buddie has the same set up and we both are getting the error. We are trying to un-root our phones to a stock rom but neither of us can find one that removes unrevoked root. Can anyone help. I am a web/graphics computer guy. I don't know much about roms.
Thanks,
Nick

Well if you're on aosp, you can't update, you'd have to be on a sense rom. And you should never accept an OTA while rooted, as it can brick your phone, or permanently use root.
i am on a sense ROM its the stock ROM and i just ran unrevoked.
I just updated my phone to JB after and was wondering if rooting is the same process as it was on ICS?
Just wanted to figure it out before I reroot and mess up on accident.
Yes, it's the same.
Rooting is nothing but installing the SU app on ur phone and is the same afor JB and ICS!

Yes you can, You need to unlock Via HTC dev as you did before, chuck on the recovery, flash your boot img and flash the rom!
If you did it before you can do it again!
guys im running a rooted stock 4.0.4 one x.
my question is simple, while this is rooted, will i at least see that an ota is available for my device? i know to update i need stock etc and thats not the issue, i just want to know if ill see that there is in fact an update ready, or do i need to be full stock just to see that there's one available? so that i can return to full stock and flash and then root again.
thanks alot
Yeah, you can check for updates since you have a stock ROM.
I reverted back to stock yesterday to receive Jelly Bean update but it says my phone is up to date.
I flashed recovery, locked the bootloader and used RUU 1.29
I'm TMobile UK CID005
When the phone rebooted update 4.0.4 came though, I downloaded and updated the phone to 2.17
No more updates are coming through however. I'm not sure if I flashed stock recovery or not (If I didn't would have update above come through?). Anyway can I reflash the stock recovery just to be sure? And how would I go about this? Also I have a custom Kernal if that makes any difference? Cheers
if you run the ruu then you're on stock already. maybe there's still no JB update for your CID.

maybe because you're still on stock rom.
Sometimes the updates won't show automatically, if you return to stock in ways like this. its recommended to check manually in the settings menu for updates .... consider this as a small "bug"
Hi,
I have a rooted Sprint GS3, running the stock ROM with just one or two root based apps. Do I need to unroot to accept the OTA update? If so, how do I go about doing that?

if you would like to run a 4.3 stock ROM, there are a couple in the development section that you can choose from without having to run the 4.3 boot loader that contains KNOX. That way you don't have to go through the unroot process to accept the OTA.

Thanks. I think the preference is to accept the OTA. If we need to unroot, we'll do that if we can figure out how. Sorry for being a little vague. I'm trying to help someone else out.
ok, you can go here Restore to unrooted MD4 follow that and you're good to go
I was stock rooted with clockwork recovery.
Took the OTA without unrooting with no problems at all, just had to re-root when it was done.

Really? I thought it was always a bad idea with a custom recovery. Maybe we will try it rooted as well. Thanks.
Every other time I've tried it would download, but just wouldn't flash the OTA.
This time, it did. Surprised me.
Re

Relax . You do not have to update. You do not have to lose Root. Check out THIS thread. It will explain a few things to you in detail about Updates, and how to stop the update nag. If you want to update to the latest TW 4.3 Stock Rooted, check out the thread HERE. Just make sure you read, and read again before doing anything. Also make sure to download the correct Rom. There are several versions on the thread.

Thanks for the answer.
I actually want to update to stock 4.3, and I was trying to achieve that by getting the OTA update.
And i was wondering if i can still do that?
If I simply can't then I'll just go to CM instead of getting other rooms since I used to have them with my old HTC.
Thanks again
If you want completely Stock Rooted 4.3, it's the second link I posted for you. It's the Stock, Rooted, Factory Rom, with Knox removed. All done by CNexus . Just be sure to read before doing anything. As there are several versions posted. I would highly suggest going this route instead of taking the OTA update. Once you take the OTA you will have Knox, and a different bootloader.
