My GT-I9195 is rooted and I just received this popup in Kies that a firmware update is available. Now I know that OTA updates cannot be done because I've modified my device but it appears that Kies is giving me the option to update without such messages.

Has anyone done this? Is it dangerous? This is actually my first time considering an upgrade through Kies and I'm a little nervous how it'll go.
I upgraded under the same circumstances, only difference was that I'm on DBT firmware.
You'll have to re-root however after the firmware upgrade.

So the upgrade goes along nicely and you only lose root?
Yup, that was it for me.

I did the ota update when I got my phone and was wondering if It was still possible for me to root my phone.
YES! Just make sure you don't do any more OTA updates after (not that there are any new ones out yet).
how would I go about doing the update after the ota? Im a newbie with this. please help!

Search is your friend. Root is available. Check the general forums.

I previously installed MaximusHD, hit bootloop and had to revert the firmware then update to the newest available. That worked and the MaxHD ROM booted right up, but sadly that OS wasn't for Verizon phones. So I am trying to install the Viper ROM and am hitting bootloop and figured I'd give that trick a shot again. The problem I am running into is now after reverting to an older firmware it shows TWO firmwares on the phone simultaneously.
Has anyone ran into this?
Thanks in advanced.
You can see the Firmware in RED in the picture...if you can't see it right click the img and open in new web page

You have to flash a full RUU?
I have spoke with Sony chat a few times and they keep giving me the run around, has the 6.0 and other updates came out yet for this market? They wouldn't give me a straight answer.
Thanks

It may not come OTA. Did you try PC Companion?

I did try companion, but it keeps saying connection error occurred. When I asked Sony about it, they only said it may not be available yet for the market it's from.
It's available. Did you use PC Companion or Xperia Companion?
Hi all, i have flashed 3 updates with odin and had different tries in changing the csc code. Is there any way to get the OTA updates ?

You must be using a full stock firmware in order for OTA updates to work.

Flashing back your HOME_CSC tar should be enough.
