[Q] Updating to android 4.3 from custom kernel - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi all,
I'm very sorry if this post is similar to many found here, but after searching through the different guides , I still couldn't find my answer.
So, I am on stock rom 4.2.2 but using franco's kernel ( unlocked bootloader and rooted). I've received the OTA update for android 4.3.
Would flashing the stock kernel again, allow me to update via the OTA?
Thanks for your help!

If that is changed from stock then yes.

[Q] Which Custom rom for Arc on ICS official with locked bootloader + root + CWM

Hi, hoping someone can help
I have flashed official ICS release to my Arc lt15i, rooted+ installed CWM with flashtool.
My question is which ICS ROM's are now compatible?
Have searched on forums but can only find posts from before the official release saying not compatible due to Kernel, I guess this is not the case now?
Many thanks

For those looking for a custom ICS rom to work with locked bootloaders i can recommend [ROM][ARC/S]ICS<☆>MooDeD ICS IFT v80.1[xAROMA][HD-Gaming][OTA][Light'Ning Speed}xDuo+ : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526717 . I have installed and it's working, and from what i can tell a lot faster than stock ICS. I wasn't sure if it will work with locked bootloader, but happily it does.

[Q] Can we Update any Custom ROM OTA?

Can we Update any Custom ROM OTA? as same applicable for stock ROM where we gets update notification & it does update itself ?
coz i just worried abt latest updates which aren't always readily available for custom roms in Cwm format,where in stock rooted ROM the update can be done by temp. unrooting & flashing back stock recovery.
So, any1 understand or gone through this issue plz help me forward to proceed .
yes i will be implementing my roms with GOOMANAGER which will say when a rom is offered OTA
hmm! thanks for the reply dude!
bt i need to know now is bcoz all custom ROMS available are having v.2.22.xxx.x, & in India i've stock updated with v2.24.xxx.x, So can i get/apply the same update OTA on any custom ROM or ur cm9 also now?
if yes then how?( it would be AWeSomE.)
No only pure stock ROMs can receive OTA updates.
OK got it. :good:

That's really not needed, but you still need to update your firmware/bootloader before installing a 4.2.2 AOSP ROM. If you read the CM10.1 thread, it was discovered that older (ICS) bootloaders do not play nice with JB 4.2 AOSP and will cause random reboots. CM10.1 (don't know about others) also won't install unless you're on a compatible bootloader.
To get the latest bootloader/firmware, you need to:
a) Odin to the latest AT&T JellyBean package
or
b) Download the I747 firmware package from here http://invisiblek.org/sgh-i747/ and flash it in recovery.
lol which part was uneeded thanks that is the EXACT answer i was looking for. i did find the smaller bootloader update package so i didnt have to install the full firmware..............and now i realize thats exactly what you linked to as well LMFAO sorry but thanks!!

Root: Newbie's questions about upgrading & updating

Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie to the community of everything rooting and post rooting. I have recently rooted my N7 2013 running 4.2.2 and flashed TWRP recovery/SuperUser by Chainfire/AOSP PA 4Beta ROM.
While I now understands how to update the ROM and how to get out of a bootloop and other similar rooting circumstances, I need help understanding the procedures involved in the below scenario :-
Should Android get an incremental or a major update,
1. Should I first update the Stock ROM followed by reflashing the custom ROM or just wait for the custom ROM to release their compatible update?
2. Should the Superuser have an update, that does have to be updated from Play Store or the update needs to be flashed? Also, does TWRP needs to be updated if there's an update because I have heard that some ROMs are compatible with recoveries from a specific versions? Is this true?
3. Is updating radios really necessary? Will updating the radios cause it to malfunction? What is the procedure if this needs to be done?
4. What do I do if I wish to chuck the custom ROM and return to stock ROM or what is called un-rooting?
If there's something I missed out on asking but needs to be done, please point me in that direction as well!
Thanks
Regards

Help: Custom ROM to KK

Before I start, I would like to say that I'm a newbie and therefore would appreciate it if people understand and help me with this
Anyways, I have a T211 rooted device and is also using the v1 of Deleterious Custom ROM (which is now called S.E.A.L. Rom). The kernel I'm using is blackhawk (the latest one, of course) and now I want to flash to the new KK firmware (I just learned that other countries - mostly Asia - received KK this month). So my question is...will I have to flash it through Odin? Will my root be deleted? What about my custom recovery (I'm using CMW, btw)? And is there a posibility that my device will be bricked using Odin?
Also, did anyone tried to flash any of the Asian KK updates? And were there any bugs? (If they were and as long as it wasn't a major one - say WIFI - then I probably still install it, just saying.). Please help.
