I have rooted my phone and using Stockrom (no CWM installed). If i try to get an update OTA the Samsungserver told me i have the last update installed (somtimes my phone is not supported). If i get the update 4.1.2 (German Version) in the near future over OTA without using MobileOdin i will lost Root, right? Is it possible to root my phone again with 4.1.2 Stockrom installed?
I ask because downloading Firmeware from Sammobile is to slow.
Yes if you install a rom via rom sammobile which is a 100% original you will lose root against you by the available forum xda rom original is already rooted and installed via odin you as an original rom I do myself without any worries. Here is the link if it can help you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1915386

If you want to try it you can use supersu pro from Chainfure or Ota rootkeeper from Supercurio from the market. It has a OTA survival mode. It will try to install the OTA and still keep you rooted.
Mind supersu pro is payed app.
The other one is free.
Your choice

Of course u lose the right for ota by rooting.

I think you can search for firmware from samfirmware

If you have root, just buy / install mobile odin and download roms from samfirmware. Advantage is that it can pre-root the roms before installation.
Hello
I have rooted my Galaxy Note II and installed CWM for the recovery. I am also running a stock ROM. There is a new OTA update, and before I am going to do it, quick question: when I update, will I still have root access or will it break it somehow? I'm running the Stock 4.1.1
Flash stock recovery..so u can get ota then just root again..rooting takes 3 seconds

The update did not work for some reason. Is there anything else that would need to be changed in order for the update to work?
U have stock recovery?

Hello,
I too had root, CWM recovery and stock ROM on my note 2 and was able to successfully take the OTA update to 4.1.2 and retain root access. I obviously have a stock recovery now after the upgrade but root is still present! I did have SuperSU (paid for version) that has the Survive OTA update mode and it worked like a charm! One thing to note is that it was not obvious at first that root was retained.
Immediately after the update, my root access failed when trying to use Titanium backup. Also, other apps requiring root access were failing as well. So, I went into SuperSU and ticked the "enable Super User" mode off and then on again and rebooted the phone.
After the reboot I noticed that Titanium Backup had root access and then verified the rest of my apps were working as well.
Three cheers to the creators of these wonderful programs.....I'm very glad I paid for the updates and got the added functionality!!
Good luck to all and hopefully it works as well for you as it did for me!!
I'm pretty noob at rooting and flashing. I have everything stock with rooted UVDLJC. I did so by flashing a root66 stock rom via odin and that's pretty much the only method I know. I looked around the forum and can't seem to find a root66 of MD5 and T-mobile seems to be pushing the MD5 to my device soon and don't want to lose root. So what's the easiest method to update to the latest update with root?

If you are totally stock except for Root (that means stock ROM with no mods, Stock kernel and Stock recovery), then all you have to do is go to the market and get OTA Rootkeeper, install it and preserve Root. Once you get the OTA notification, go into OTA Rootkeeper and Hide Root, accept OTA and reboot. Fire up OTA Rootkeeper and Restore Root. All your data will be preserved and you will have MD5 with Root.
Or if you are not totally stock, then you can back up your apps with Titanium and flash (with a custom recovery, of course) the MD5 Rooted ROM in the Dev section.
Thanks! I'm on total stock. Will try that and see how that goes.

I updated via kies lost root then obtained root by installing custom recovery via Odin then flashing superuser via recovery. This way its the same as an ota upgrade which preserves all your apps. I was also on stock rooted with custom recovery before the upgrade.

Check out mobile odin too. It makes everything but full sys backups a total breeze!
One of my all time favorite apps!

So the 4.3 update has arrived to my country but I am not able to update OTA because I am currently rooted. How do I update to 4.3 and maintain root from 4.1.2 rooted? The phone is scandinavian (Sweden)
There are some apps that temporary remove root like triangle away or jellybean unroot etc

Can you please specify which apps that can for 100% unroot my 7105 in order to install 4.3? How do I root 4.3 once installed?
Okay so today I downloaded the 4.3 rogers update, I am on I747M in Mexico, and made a ROM with the kitchen with no rogers apps and removed Knox, left everything else just added root and busybox. I am thinking I can just flash with twrp but figured I would ask before I actually did it. Without updating the bootloader if I wanted to revert back to 4.1.1 I should be fine to flash back to stock with Odin, right?

You flashed the 4.3 update already? If you did and you flash backwards with an Odin tar that contains a bootloader like the ones from sammobile or Samsung-updates it will brick your phone.

Maybe I wasn't clear I downloaded 4.3 to my computer then using android kitchen I created a custom ROM with root and busybox and removed Knox and the rogers CSC stuff, I have not yet flashed anything on my phone it is my own modified stock 4.1.1, rooted with supersu, my thinking is that if I flash the 4.3 ROM I created to flash via recovery it will not affect the bootloader so if by some miracle telcel were to actually offer an ota to 4.3 in the future that I could use Odin to revert to 4.1.1 stock and ota update at that time. Does that make sense?
