Put twrp back on and flash either stock rooted rom or the rom of your choice. Options for roms, including stock rooted, can be easily found in the android development section of the at&t gs3

So im on stock rooted and lets say i get the update but im rooted do i need to unroot to proceed ??.. or i can do it whit root? Cant wait for some jellybean goodies

Root should be fine. Its the custom recovery that'll prevent you from even being able to get the update.
You will lose root though unless you use voodoo rootkeeper or mobile odin pro.

Its pretty straight forward actually. There should be steps laid out in post 2 of the fw thread and I believe Theexel hasit in his thread stickied in this section.
If you have any problems let me know, but don't see a reason to retype it all again!

Along the same lines...I just got an s3 yesterday and rooted stock 4.0.4. Used OTA root keeper, downloaded the ota for JB and when I attempt to upstate it fails....I have stock recovery. No idea why it keeps failing. I would Odin the prerooted JB but my wife doesn't want to lose her settings she already set up. Any ideas?

You probably have a custom recovery causing it to fail.
Regardless of how you update you will possibly lose some settings. Its recommended, but not required to do a clean update anyway. But flashing with odin should preserve your settings as well as the ota would. Once they boot up it shouldn't matter as the resulting build is the same.

Depends if you've done anything to your current build.
Cwm will flash it, but I just don't care for it. Caused probs for quite a few people.
But you have to be full stock. No mods, no deodexing, no bloat removal, no modems flashed, etc.
Then you should be able to flash it in cwm.
Its preferred you do it through stock recovery. You can use voodoo rootkeeper to preserve root.

Hi. I was wondering how I would go about removing CWM Recovery off my stock s3.
My computer isn't that good and I want to remove it so I can do the jb update. It keeps saying the file signature failed and wont install and I thought if maybe I got rid of CWM it would let me update.
All help is appreciated.

Same issue here. I have CWM Recovery and the device is rooted. Doesn't seem to like the OTA for Jelly Bean.
My device isn't rooted tho. That's why I wanna get rid of it. If I was rooted I'd flash jb. I couldn't get rooted. My computer screen wasn't big enough to click ok in Odin. And when I finally did It rebooted but said it couldn't finish the root.

Update:
Flashed stock recovery. Went to do update and the update got to 24% and rebooted. Pop-up said it failed and to use kies.
Ill try again later and see if maybe a new update cache would fix it.

As long as you have stock recovery you are good. However after the update you may loose root, and your device status may say modified unless you factory reset.

Remove root.
Then install update.
Reapply root.
I'd recommend a custom rom. You get so much more. And it's been multi Window 4.1.2 since October.

That has everything you need to gain root. What you do from there is up to you. I've personally used it on both the ICS and JB stock images. Worked perfectly.
Search before you make a new thread next time though. Took me all of 15 seconds to find that when I first got on here.
I am still new to the forums and flashing ROMs. I want to go back to the stock ROM, but I've seem to have lost my stock ROM I originally set up before I started flashing. Can anyone please direct me to where I can download the stock ROM. Thanks
