Hello
I have rooted my Galaxy Note II and installed CWM for the recovery. I am also running a stock ROM. There is a new OTA update, and before I am going to do it, quick question: when I update, will I still have root access or will it break it somehow? I'm running the Stock 4.1.1
Flash stock recovery..so u can get ota then just root again..rooting takes 3 seconds

The update did not work for some reason. Is there anything else that would need to be changed in order for the update to work?
U have stock recovery?

Hello,
I too had root, CWM recovery and stock ROM on my note 2 and was able to successfully take the OTA update to 4.1.2 and retain root access. I obviously have a stock recovery now after the upgrade but root is still present! I did have SuperSU (paid for version) that has the Survive OTA update mode and it worked like a charm! One thing to note is that it was not obvious at first that root was retained.
Immediately after the update, my root access failed when trying to use Titanium backup. Also, other apps requiring root access were failing as well. So, I went into SuperSU and ticked the "enable Super User" mode off and then on again and rebooted the phone.
After the reboot I noticed that Titanium Backup had root access and then verified the rest of my apps were working as well.
Three cheers to the creators of these wonderful programs.....I'm very glad I paid for the updates and got the added functionality!!
Good luck to all and hopefully it works as well for you as it did for me!!
I have the at&t version of the samsung note 2 it on 4.1.1 but it doesnt have the samsung apps store what should i do?

thats the problem it wont let me it said no updates available
If you are rooted or have a non-3e recovery ...the update attempt will fail ..
If you are completely stock you can manually set the date of the device ahead and try the update again...
If the attempt continues to fail ...then go to sammobile.com and pull the UCAMA4 build and push it to the device via Odin...then repeat the update attempt..
Once the device is updated to the latest UCAMC3 build ...you can root and use triangle away to reset your flash counter if desired...
But for now ...you should try Odin if manual updates are failing on a stock device ....g

Also if any are concerned I was running cleanROM and rooted until recently, I am back to stock unrooted and done so by flashing latest Telus ROM from Sammobile thats it I am not aware of the triangle or flash counts state .... or what ever it is but I haven't done triangle away.
I got the update through the check for updates feature but wasn't notified of the update.

Bell rolling it out too! Update is about 700 MB
My device says that I changed something so I cannot update anymore. I'll have to go the Odin route instead.

Thanks, I too am on Cleanrom on Rogers. So if I understand what you've done to get back to stock, simply download the official 4.1.2 for Rogers (in my case), install via ODIN and that will remove the root? I found the latest 4.3 for Rogers on Sammobile so I guess once I've downgraded to 4.1.2 I can ODIN the 4.3

Is it safe to say your 4.3 is available for you?
That is exactly what I did... but I still haven't installed 4.3 so I don't know if it will be successful due to the flash counter any way.
Still not backed up yet but once I am I'll be trying it!
Let me know how it goes for you.

You should go back to stock before making an update from Samsung. Some custom ROM don't play well with stock rom and can cause either glitches or either not being able to boot.

Get the bell 4.3 rom from Sammobile and flash via ODIN thats it!
Also after installing you may have network issues so you will have to open the dialer and do the IMEI thing I'll post back in a minute with what I'm talking about.

Well if you have a custom rom and recovery yes OTA won't work for you. So you will have to download you carrier's rom from Sammobile and install through ODIN and it will give you stock recovery and 4.3 and no root!

I was thinking of simply Odin to 4.3 from cleanrom instead of stock 4.1.2 and then 4.3 my only issue right is I need root for a couple of critical root apps I use. Will have to wait for someone to create a Stock 4.3 root version. Hopefully, it won't be too long of a wait

Please give me adivise how to upgrade a rooted note 2 to android jb 4.3 I am getting scared about getting phone bricket so please tell me some steps by which I will not brick my phone and will upgrade to 4.3

Just download a 4.3 firmware for your country/region from sammobile.com and flash it via odin.
Steps to flash odin package via can be found in the forum.
If you want to get update via OTA,reset binary counter and system status and then go to settings->about device->system updates.
OTA update subject to the availability of 4.3 firmware in your country.
NOTE:The official 4.3 firmware contains knox bootloader and thereby after flashing 4.3 official,you cant rollback to previous firmwares.
You can also use kunal.shah's 4.3 firmware package,it doesn't contain knox bootloader or you can also flash official 4.3 based roms.

I'm kinda lost what ROM your phone is at right now... Sounds like you are on 4.3 with CWM recovery, if I read right. But like I said I got lost
If on 4.3, flash the stock recovery

Or
You could just flash this via ODIN and remove root

If you truly on stock 4.3 with only custom recovery then flash the stock recovery.
The second one is full stock with only root. Root can be uninstalled. But until the update comes out don't think we're going to really know what state phone needs to be in.
