My mom took the update today :( - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

So Im on my way to my mom house because her note 2 is stuck in recovery. Apparently, said yes to the update. Anyone got an idea of what I will need to do to fix this.?

I rooted it using the toolkit. No custom rom installed, just twrp.

that might be the problem there... stock rom that still recieves updates BUUUUUTTTT you have TWRP installed which is not set up to install updates.... if there is a back up restore to that... then use the toolkit to re-install the stock recovery ... then run the update... then re-install the TWRP recovery

Such a pain never root your parents phone or anyone who dont know anything about rooting. Not a smartr idea on both side's. Was thinking about doing the same for my mom but this woman just had her first smartphone 3 years ago.

[Q]Got OTA and I'm rooted?

How can I be getting the update. If. I'm on juggernaut? Is this possible? It would probably brick my phone?

Is this your after update? You still have the old baseband Joser.

I'm assuming this is the update for 2.3.6 and wifi calling?
I got the same OTA notification, running Juggernaut 3.7
Did you guys install the update? Or just get a notification?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I don't mind updating via OTA (I'm on BeastMod now), but what I don't want to do its lose root and have to restore all the data manually.

It was a notification for the update with an option to install or postpone; I'm going to postpone mine as long as I can....not sure what that update will do being that I'm rooted and on Juggernaut.
I'm sure one of the dev teams will take the OTA and roll it into a ROM so we can get the update and keep everything that we're used to.
I'm still on stock and yet to get update. sucks!

I got the update notification too and I'm also running Juggernaut 3.7.
I'm using the EagleBlood ROM and I received the update notification today. I'm postponing it as long as I can, but is there a way to just reject the update? It's annoying seeing the icon in my notification bar.
Can any of you just pull the link please? It would be a great help to many people. Everyone keeps posting about it and that is not helping anyone.

The update is already rooted and posted. Along with the new basebands.

Yes but not all of us want to use Odin. I am very much aware of its presence in the development section. However, i can assure you that i am not alone in wanting the link/zip.

Link for what? I'm not following you. Are you wanting the actual ota zip? If so, someone who has been notified of the update can use root explorer and go to /data/cache and grab the zip.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I guess someone else tried running this update and it just took them to CMW and didn't give them the update. I just froze "device manager" from TB so i don't have those annoying update arrows. I will wait for the new juggernaut when they update it. I'm in no rush

My Issue with Root.

Alright so here we go. I know I'm going to end up getting flamed for this, but whatever. If you could be so kind as to read this entire post and bare with me as I explain my situation, I'd truly appreciate it.
So I got the DInc2 as a replacement for the Droid X2 a couple months ago. I immediately took S-Off and rooted on the first day. I used the "Downgrade with H-Boot .98" to downgrade and all was smooth.
After some time and a lot of flashing, my phone became cluttered and started having weird issues. So a few days ago I decided to return to stock 2.3.4 with software version 6.01.XXX. I did that and have had nothing but trouble trying to reroot and get things back to what they were.
My confusion is that I still have S-Off after using PG32IMG to get back to 2.3.4 and I updated the software version to the latest (6.01.605.05 710RD) and I'm not too clear on how to reroot.
Since I already have S-Off, do I just have to flash a recovery and SU Binary? Or do I need to to downgrade or something else?
Thanks to all who respond. I'm sorry this is so noobish. :silly:
Since you are S off you are correct in just needing to flash a recovery and su zip.

That is all? No need to downgrade? Which Su would you recommend?

There's a button for that.

Can anyone confirm root after t-mobile update??

Hesitant to flash back to stock to update, anyone know if they can use that galaxy s3 root toolkit after the new update
Just flash the already rooted rom. Just did a few phones with no problem.

It's safe to flash and root like normal. I just received my phone and it had a sticker on it that said updated. I didn't incur any problems.

system update on rooted s2 will I lose root?

I have a rooted s2 which I just rooted the other day, but now I'm getting an alert For an update. I don't wanna lose root.
is there anyway to block it?
or update it and not lose root?
thanks in advance
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Yes. And if you are on a custom rom it may just bootloop. You may be able to find an ota killer on here.

There's also this, don't know if you have seen; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774282
edit: It has been found not to be build specific. Meaning it was put out when FF18 came but it has been used after and stopped FH13 as well)
And then this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31192830&postcount=29
But if you want to update and stay stock (you'll have to odin/mobile odin a custom recovery) check out this handy thread by Rwilco: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
One easy thing to do would also be to just get a no-data rooted one-click. that way you keep root and you also get a new build.

Huge thanks

Almost added another brick to the wall. Thanks to wish and truth, I'm alive again. :thumbup:

Basically was doing a restore after a full wipe. I noticed the restore went allot faster then normal. I figured it was because the new twrp update speeded it up some how. I didn't get a failed message. Umm, no. It was a bad backup. I went to hit restore again and instead did a reboot. The phone was stuck on the Samsung white screen. With wish and truth helping, we got the phone into download mode and using Odin flashed the cwm recovery tar file. Then got the the phone into recovery and flashed a ROM I had on my card.
Moral of the story. If it doesn't seem right dont follow through with it and always keep a working ROM zip on your card. It was totally my fault.
Just noticed, that restore was only 506mb. I ran out of space.

Let me start be saying be very carefully using the new twrp. I have tons of space now. Just tried to do a backup. It finished in 0 seconds, no fail message. I think I know what I'm doing and that is broke.

I've had no problem with backups on mine. Matter of fact I've restored it once and it worked perfect.

i have restored backups back to back to back using twrp and have had no issues, even just restoring data it works fine.
glad you got it back up and running though.

Its been fixed, no worries.
FYI. In the new version you have to choose what you want backed up. Make real sure you check the boxes in the name screen.
Full wipe + no check marks = a real bad day
