I have a leaked version of jelly bean, will i be able to receive the official ota, i tried kies, but it says it is not compatible. I want the official update because this leak has some issues.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Why don't you wait a day until ROM developers rebuild the ROMs using the new official jellybean?
Then you'll have best of both worlds.
You cant update unless you are 100% stock UVALJ4.
You can flash the new FW though. Check my fw thread. Link in sig.
I highly recommend updating via Odin, or at least by OTA. If you just flash a rom you will not be getting the full update. The update applies to 10 different partitions and you will not get those by flashing a custom rom.
Just fyi, and if people are having strange problems this will be one of the first things I ask about.

The answer to your question is no. I recommend using Odin to flash the stock file. There is also a stock file in the dev section that has root injected that you can flash via Odin.

Thank you for the link. Now i can't get to recovery. When i try, it takes me to the "downloading... do not turn off target!!" screen. How do i get to normal recovery? I turned off my phone, then held down power+ volume down+ home

No, your phone is fine. Hold the power button until your phone turns off then let go and wait for it to turn back on. Then reboot back into recovery.
Edit: Never mind, brain fart. If you used Odin you're going to have to re flash recovery.

If only haha. Once you unroot, the device still says modified because the binary flash counter has increased from 0 to 1 (or higher). That pretty much tells the phone that your device was modified.
There are a few guides around on how to do it. I can't really search at the moment as Im on my phone.

So If I want to update with samsung when android 4.2 comes out so I have to use triangle away and also unroot it???
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Thats right. Someone mentioned just downloading the file from www.sammobile.com when its released and flashing that with odin.
Im not sure if that works while rooted but may be worth investigating?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Ok... then...
I'll go check it
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
There is guides in this forum relating to your issue, but basically use Triangle Away, then wipe data/cache and it should change your status, though some say it reverts back to modified after time...
I would just leave it rooted. 4.2 based roms will be available here probably long before you would see it getting pushed to your device by your carrier.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Downloading and installing the firmware using ODIN resolves the issue.

WIND, Mobilicity or Videotron customer with a Samsung Galaxy S III? Jealous that other GS III owners on other carriers already have received the Jelly Bean upgrade? Curious to know where yours is sitting? Well, Samsung answered all your questions today on Twitter stating that WIND, Mobilicity and Videotron will “start receiving Jelly Bean on Fri. with a staggered rollout into next week!”

It is a Videotron issue with their firmware. The connection is completely unstable with their rom. Any custom rom those not cause any failed connection. I would suspect their APN to be thw cause since I do get gateway failures only using stock.

Yeah, what others said. Odin won't root it....unless you root it. Just flashing rom wont root it.

Interesting. It's worth a shot OP. Worst case, it fails and you uninstall. If it is successful, you can install mobile odin, then get the latest gb27 tar, and money. While you're at it, you will have to flash a cwm custom jb kernel, since you're on ics, and, MO won't flash modems, you'll need a jb modem to use data on gb27. Download the zip though of the modem . Good luck, let us know how it goes.
