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.

So let's say I download the flash able version of the JB stock OTA, I can flash it through stock recovery or twrp or cwm, right?
Sorry, not new to flashing ROMs at all..but normally I flash custom ROMs and don't care about losing anything, but my wife likes the touchjizz...lol

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.

[Q] Exynos abuse rooted- Flash custom rom, mobile odin, triangle away, oficial stat

Can we Flash any custom roms easily using mobile or pc odin on rooted Note 2 N7100 (rooted with exynos abuse apk) and also have feature rich root to use things like nandroid backuo and restore keeping in mind rooting with exynose abuse app we don't have CWM. And if we have to send for warranty just flash stock rom and its all official and we don't even have to run triangle away etc as flashing stock ROM will take care of everything. ?

Odin is used to flash stock
And yes you need to use triangle away for repair
Flash a custom recovery to flash custom roms

I thought pc odin is used to flash stock firmware. but we can use mobile odin to flash custom roms.
When you say custom recovery do you mean custom rom..?

Cwm is custom recovery.
Custom rom is software made by people for our phone here at xda.
Use mobile odin to flash custom roms.
Use toolkit to make nandroids.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

So that means we cant install custom roms without cwm.? As I rooted my phone with exynosabuse app I dont have cwm. I was under the impression I can still flash custom roms like omega rom etc using mobile odin.?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

Yeah that's what I said you can flash via mobile odin.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

So I can flash m omega rom for note 2 just with Phone rooted with exynosabuse app even though I don't have cwm. . And if I need to send for warranty just unroot from exynos abuse app and flash stock rom and run triangle away app if counter raises.?

Installing a recovery

This may be a dumb question but to install a recovery from goomanager... You have to be rooted right?
I'm stock now and trying to install a custom recovery and then flash roms... Are there any custom recoveries you can install from Odin?

You need root to install custom recoveries also to flash ROMs. You have your choice between twrp and cwm. I know twrp has Odin flashable files on their site. Easy as pie.

Is this the way by flashing a whole new stock rom with root injected? Trying to avoid that if possible.

Bah there a simple way hut trips then flash counter ( which does matter because we can clear the flash counter)
Its just say casual rooting I think. Its intended at&t development section. Its a one click deal basically. You need to be rooted to do anything with odin

Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

Mobile Odin can be set to inject root while flashing - but ...
If you are pre 4.12 and need to fix the SDS problem then apparently Mobile Odin doesn't flash the boot which is needed.
So if you are pre 4.12 and need the protection from SDS, then just flash and re-root it with CF Autoroot (takes about 5 minutes)

Or look at my signature download that prerooted rom OR our beloved dr.ketans prerooted rom x)
Ive used his guide to make a prerooted rom. U will gain root access + warranty

Mobile Odin is an app created by Chainfire , it's in the Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro&feature=search_result
It allows you to flash directly on your device without a PC. It flashes from the SD Card directly.
One of the features it includes is "Everroot". This injects root directly into any new firmware that you flash.
