Just checked for software update and downloading it right now. Its 94.45MB. Anyone know what this update is for?
Finished downloading and try to install but failed. Is it because my phone is rooted?
Maybe that's why. I'm not rooted so ill try it. Brb
Edit.: updated no problem now we haz brightness slider on notification

You are correct sir, brain dead here this morn. Actually, I thought even a modded stock rom was not a custom. I stand corrected.

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.

Has anyone tried Rootkeeper with this OTA? If so, can you provide feedback on the results?
A couple of weeks ago, I went on Sammobile and installed a leaked OTA that I thought didnt carry any problems with until now. I Installed the UVLI1 verson. Now yesterday, I just found out that I will not be able to get any OTAs from T-Mobile since my modem number is changed. So I tried to Install the UVALH2 update so I can get back on the offical modem but its not letting me install it! Im 100% stock. No root or anything. I need help please.

Thanks guys... It may have taken 2 hours but I finally Rooted my phone for the first time... Flashed the previous update and now im just waiting for it to start so i can unroot my phone... I like knowing that I have a warranty on it
One more noob question.... How do you know if your phone is unrooted? I Flashed the previous update and cleared my cashe and wiped my data and now my device status is normal. does that mean that im not rooted anymore?
Glad you're learning some of the basics but you should definitely read before you start going to sammobile and installing leaks. You should be glad that your phone isn't bricked.

Learning is what happens when you do something that you don't have the knowledge to do. If I said I knew what I was doing before I started flashing, I would be a liar. That being said, a smart person learns from other people's mistakes. Read a lot.
It's simple. Basically, never flash anything that isn't made for the SGH-T999. And if using Odin, always use PDA.
Since you are rooted, get Terminal Emulator from the Play Store. Run it, and type: su <enter> reboot nvbackup <enter>. This will backup your IMEI data, so it can be restored should it ever become corrupted. You will only need to do this one time.
Follow these instructions, and it's pretty much impossible to hard brick.
You want to check root status? Why do you need another app from the Play Store? Just open Superuser/SuperSU. It will tell you if the binaries are present/updated. Though, the presence of a su app is generally indicative that you have root access.
Alright everyone. Here is a stock ZVB rooted ROM you can flash. I recommend you flash in TWRP because that is all I have tested.
You must be Freegee unlocked
You do not need ZV9, this ZIP can be flashed clean.
It can also be flashed on top of ZV9 to upgrade it, wipe system before flashing.
I also recommend wiping system, cache, and dalvik cache in TWRP before flashing
I also recommend flashing the radio update prior to this. This can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176186
Information:
Odex
V1.25 SuperSu
1.19.0 Busybox

Hit the Imperium thread and you'll see why.
After Shelnutt stopped being dumb and corrected Freegee (heh) I decided I was going to upgrade last night, but since it took 1.5 hrs to donwload everything, I wound up having to get to bed before I was able to apply the updates.
Perfect timing on this! Thanks so much. Can't wait to get home.
This is what dreams are made of! Thanks for everyone and their hard work. Downloading now

What's is the advantage of doing that? I'm the same as to at this point. If there is something to gain, then I'll flash it. Thanks to everyone involved.
how big should the file be? I think it was at +800mb before?

To get root back can I flash the one from the repository with no data? Or is there a simpler solution

(Sorry if I'm asking a repetitive question.)
Does the leak GB27 match the official GB27 that just came out?
I'm on FL24 stock + root. I don't want to use flash an unrooted FL24, download Kies, update to GB27, then root it.
Wondering if I can just use the One-Click method from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191954
so I can avoid doing all that work and still have the same result.
I'm only asking because I read that GB27 repartitions the storage (or something like that).
I did what you didn't want to do. Some people stated that they are the same but I don't know for sure. I'm having problems accessing the settings and I wanted root back so I just flashed the no data on top of all this. My settings is still messed up and crashes.
