Develop Bugs

Random question.

Hey all! I have a gs2 that I was going to do a factory reset on. If I do this will I lose root on the phone?
It is currently running the leaked stock ff18 build.
Thanks for the help.

How many haven't received the OTA yet?

I still haven't received last week's OTA in my stock unrooted Note2. When I check for updates I get a message " access to the software update services provided 2 users in the order in which they requested. Try later". Anyone else?

Try rebooting your phone and connecting to a wifi network see if it works.

Same here!

Try going to settings/appliction manager/all/com.sec.android.providers.downloads and wiping cache and data. Reboot and try update again.
Also I seen in another forum people cleared google.services.framework cache and data and rebooted and were able to get update.

How do they send updates? By zones?
