Once rooted OTA is going to fail. Just do a manual update if need be via CWM.

thanks sir, i went and paid for cwm pro, and it tells me that rom cant be updated here is my story and issues, thanks for any help you can give
galaxy s2 epic touch (sprint) when i got the unit i flashed it and had not backed up factory rom, i flashed with EG30-Stock-deodexV2-withCIQ now i have tried to ota update and kies, also rom manager, it give me the message that my rom developer has not set this rom to take ota updates, this is where i need some direction to flash a rom that i can get otas back and update, i do want to root due to my back up is in titanium pro, and would need root to pull back in my data settings and such, thanks for any help anyone can give me on my issue

you meant you bought rom manager pro. cwm can be seperate. its found in a kernel that has it installed. do not use rom manager it doesn't flash roms to our phone. if you are completely stock with no root the go to settings about phone. update. go through the updates. it will be fine as long as you have stock kernel. when that is done odin a new kernel that contains cwm. flash whatever you want after that.

btw. if I were you I would just use odin to flash a full tar. such as the ek02 or el29. its alot easier.

i need to get back to stock from my issues above, i need a stock rom, or a rom that will take ota, my phone keeps telling me i have a system update ready i think it should be ics, is there a good ics with root and cwm that i can flash to resolve this, and also a ics rom that will take updates moving forward?

sorry dude no ics. you are either getting a notice for ek02 or if they have rolled it out yet el29. noone has gotten ics. in the first page of the dev section there is a tar for el29. the stock one. all you need is to odin that. then you can have root. also when ics does come out you can just flash a stock kernel with stock recovery and update.

ah ok, i assumed ics was out, my xoom pad took an update today to 4.2.3 so i assumed this update was or would be ics, thanks, sir, the ek02 will resolve my issues to take ota or at least let me update in rom manager move forward?

well ek02 will let you update to the next ota only if you flash a stock kernel with stock recovery. also I have never heard of someone using this phone being able to use rom manager to flash anything.

sorry, i get confused on rom, kernels, so the rom and kernel will be different? the ek 02 will have a kernel or no? should this have been my stock kernel i should have backed up at first? if so is there a stock kernel i can download and is it flashed with odin?
here you say update to the next ota only if you flash a stock kernel with stock recovery, is this something i need to do now, or later and a stock kernel im assuming i dont have mine due to the fact i messed up when i got my phone and forgot to back up all stock roms etc,etc. thanks for all you info and help on my issue

No you can go here and get EL29 which is the latest update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101 then go to the on click root link I have in the previous message and root to a el29 kernel with CWM and your rooted, up to date and ready to flash.(for some reason I thought you wanted EK02) I have done both full does exactly what it implies you start just like it was out of the box. Your contacts and email are backed up in you're google account so all you will have to do is sign in to your account. Any apps you have will be gone so you will have to go through market and redo them. Nodata, well you get the picture.......

Yes if you have TB you can save you apps use NODATA and then you can restore them from there, however I would just restore the app itself not the data. I do mine that way or i just reload everything again from market just in case you have a rogue app/data somewhere. as for the emails, are they all gmail accounts? if so they should be fine just resign into them.

[Q] undo (unroot) SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED_NODATA-OneClick

My first post & I LOVED that n00b video!
I rooted using this method (oneclick NODATA). Now I want to go back to stock. I found the original sfhub thread where I started - but the directions are a little vague on EXACTLY how to go back. I see the individual components & ODIN in that post as well as references to use those to go back stock (page 21 of that thread).
Do I use ODIN with the PDA button and ONLY the b3 option (ROM)? Or do I also have to do option b1 (Modem) and / or b2 (Kernel) too?

From SFHub's post:
SFHub said:
This is equivalent to using the Auto Root Package on a stock ROM. In fact, if you used that package to UNROOT (Option B) this ROM then it would become 100% stock.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So the solution seems to be download the auto root package here (Step 2), follow Step 3 selecting Option B and done!

Will give that one a try - Thanks!
Followup question / reason: The reason that I was thinking about unrooting is for ICS official from Samsung - whenever that is pushed out. Do I even need to unroot for that or will it just install on top of what I have now essentially removing root?

You just wait for xda to put out a rooted version thats all. No need to unroot to root again. You wont lose out on anything being rooted and getting the rooted stock version. Plus sfhub's versions allows the OTA to happen... I know there are stipulations so just read his thread and you should find all you need

The ONLY change was the addition of ROOT to the ROM. NOTHING else was changed. If you made no other changes, you WOULD be able to install an OTA patch update (based off of EL29) on top of this w/o issues.

I would wait for something released on xda though as the previous poster mentioned.

Noob question about going to CM9/10 from stock ICS FH13

I literally just accepted the FH13 OTA update yesterday morning. As far as I can tell, I'm back to being unrooted and no custom recovery.
I've browsed the threads here about how to not brick your phone and upgrading and all that but to someone who doesn't flash a custom ROM every day it's a bit confusing. Every other line in one of the threads was striked out. I remember somewhere someone saying that installing CWM on ICS is a bad, bad thing. I don't even want to try it as of right now.
Can someone just explain to me, briefly, the steps to go form stock FH13 to CM9/10. I don't even need links to threads, I can do the digging. I just want to be absolutely sure of the steps. Like, do I have to go back to GB first? Can I backup my current system before I do any of this with Nandroid? Can I even install CWM on ICS?

Hey, I know you said you don't want any links, but they are kinda tricky to find. Currently, the most reliable way to do this is to use odin (or one-click) to downgrade your phone to an earlier build, and then use the absurdly stable recoveries and kernels there to upgrade once again. The way you should do this is as follows:
1. Use Odin one click to go back to EL29 (which is gingerbread)
2. Install a kernel with a recovery through the use of either Odin or Mobile Odin (I have provided a link for sfhub's Odin GUI)
3. Reboot your phone and give it a couple minutes.
4. reboot into recovery and flash away
The link to odin one click to get back to EL29 (provided by sfhub):http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101
The link to Odin GUI to root EL29 (provided by sfhub): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728
If you have any questions, please ask, and also be sure to watch the instructional videos provided by qbking77 in the above links. If this is your first time using odin, it can be somewhat nerve wracking, but be patient, take it slow and follow the directions. Good luck
EDIT: to answer the other questions in your post:
nomaxtech said:

Click to expand...

Well, you can use Mobile Odin to flash a kernel that has a working recovery, but for that you would need to have root. You could however use Odin(on the computer) to flash a kernel with a custom recovery, but It wouldn't be as reliable as flashing back to el29 and using that recovery. HOWEVER, a lot of people have been claiming that the newer recoveries for ics are safe and can be used.
nomaxtech said:

Well, you would need a working recovery, so refer to the previous question.

Today I used ODIN to flash agats 0.5.4 kernel, which I then wiped and installed CM9. I think you need a rooted rom in-order to do what I did though.

I don't know if you check on some youtube tutorial, If not go to QBking77 channel, he has the latest and newest way to re-root your phone. Take your time and read. you probably know what to do, but lack the confidence to go thru with it, take your time and check out some youtube videos.

I was wondering this my self thanks.

Freeroot, thank you so much!
I never expected all of that. Every time I have ever asked a question I would usually get short answers and scolded for not doing the searching myself. I had hoped that I would get a better response if I said not to bother with links.
Seriously, thank you very much! Above and beyond! :good:

Help!! Baseband 1747UCLH9 and Restore?

After extensive reading, I think what I need to do is RESTORE to stock OS (from CM 10) and use my Titanium Backup to "FREEZE" unwanted bloatware.
I'm SO confused as to how to do this. I read this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2031840) for Odin-One Click but the baseband is (seemingly) different from mine. As I read/understand, the Odin-One Click is for UCDLK3 and I'm on baseband UCLH9. Too, I did not use Odin to flash in the first place; I used GooManager.
Could someone give me a specific HELP as to how to get back to factory settings (though I'd love to keep the phone ROOTED, if that's possible).
Here is (perhaps) pertinent info: Galaxy S3 i747UCLH9 (ATT). I have backed-up Titanium Backup to GoogleDrive.
I certainly will appreciate all the help I can get and will chalk it up as a great gift on Christmas. Thanks!!!!

Following the instructions here will restore your phone to a stock-but-rooted state. If you want to upgrade to LK3, use the LK3 images (this will mean your phone will be running Jelly Bean); if you want to end up with a stock LH9, you'll (apparently) need to start with LG1 and follow the instructions listed in that section.

Thanks!! Quick double-check questions:
1. I followed the link and saw the JellyBean version. Does it matter that (I'm assuming) the baseband for the download is UCDLK3 and the one on my phone (under settings > about ) is UCLH9.
2. Also, do I need to worry about the Triangle Away trip count thing? (As my language shows, I know little about this.)
3. When I restore, will my phone still be rooted? If not, how can I root it? (I've completely forgot what I did in the first place to root it.)
4. When it is restored and rooted, can I use Titanium Backup to: a) freeze bloatware and b) reinstall some my previous apps?
Thanks so much!!

Assuming your backups are intact (which they should be, as the process will preserve your internal storage - but it doesn't hurt to take a few extra steps before going ahead to make sure you have a spare copy of them somewhere), you will be able to do exactly that.

As I recall, the "yellow rectangle" is mainly applicable to older versions of Odin (I could be wrong about that, though); I certainly don't remember seeing anything of the sort when doing this to my own phone.
Just keep going with the procedure.

Android laying down with red triangle after OTA update

First of all I would like to apologize for posting this because this probably happens a lot, but I couldn't find any forums to fix this, so I would be very grateful if someone could help me or send me a link to another forum with the same problem and solutions.
So I just did an OTA update on a rooted Samsung Galaxy SIII SPH-L710 phone and while doing the update it said that root access might be lost, attempt to fix? and so I pressed yes..so now and it turns on but will never get past the Samsung logo right before it gets to the homepage/apps or whatever. I have gone into recovery and data reset like 5 times already to no avail, and when I go into recovery..there are only like 6 options most are just apply update, there are no restore options. I had CWM installed but that's not showing up anymore. Yes I know I'm an idiot for trying to update on a rooted phone, but I would really appreciate any help that you guys can offer!

Ok, at this point, the thing I'd have you do is to flash a stock rooted Rom through Odin (while in download mode). The files are found in Sextape's thread over in their forums (warning, external link). Since you already wiped your user data and rooted, you should flash the "Restore" Version: SPH-L710_MD4_1130792_Rooted_Restore. They have directions on their page, so it should be nice.
Once you have root, you can use Goo Manager or Rom Toolbox to get a custom recovery back.

Thank you!! I will try this out and get back to you on whether it works or not.

And another note
Just to add something: In the future, please do not accept any OTA updates. If you're running a custom recovery or have frozen any stock apps, the OTA will fail (sometimes it'll get part of the way through, like yours did).
The best way to keep your phone up-to-date is to just flash the latest stock rooted rom when it comes out. Freeza typically has the latest stock rooted rom over in his thread, and for the most part, gets his Rom updated way before I ever get the OTA. You'll want to get the DeOdex version and if you're coming from a stock rooted Rom, you can do a "dirty flash" (only wipe cache and dalvik cache), no need to lose your user data.
Again, if you're running a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP) you're asking for trouble if you try an OTA update.
