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.

Official AT&T Jellybean 4.1.1 [KIES]

"Good news tonight for AT&T subscribers, as a number of readers are now reporting that Samsung's update to Android 4.1.1 is now available for the Galaxy S III via Kies. We've reached out to the carrier to learn whether any specific improvements are in store, but it's not like we need to tell you that users will be immersed in the goodies of Google Now and the performance enhancements from Project Butter. Word from members of xda-developers reveals that the update weighs in at a substantial 738MB. For those keeping score, AT&T's update to Jelly Bean for the Galaxy S III follows previous deployments from Sprint and T-Mobile..." -Engadget.

You can also use mobile odin pro and enable everroot. If you maintain root, you can use goomanager from the market to install twrp recovery. Seems like there are a number of ways to do this, I just found this the easiest way.

I downloaded from samsungupdates sites and install de .tar file with mobile odin pro... and i kept root sou if u wanna be stock but keeping root i recommend you this way its easy!

Just got my S3 2 weeks ago. Never rooted it. Figured I'd wait until JB update. (Just want to root for tethering, not interested in custom firmware or mods). Can someone post a link to or recommend the safest/easiest wait to root since JB 4.1.1 update?
Thanks

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.

Is it possible to install 4.1.2 custom rom on a note2 which has official 4.3?

Bump.... Any one tried this?

That's what I'm wondering too! It's what's keeping me from updating bootloader/rom right now

Bump.. bump? Anyone running a custom 4.1.2 rom on 4.3 bootloaders?

How did you install 4.3 bootloader, did you upgrade from 4.1.2? Can you point me to the instructions for the same?

Why? Did you already flash a 4.3 rom? Just restore a nandroid.

No it is updated officially to 4.3, so has the new bootloader.
So can't reverse the bootloader, but the question is can I install 4.1.2 based rom now?

All I did. Was odin the rooted stock 4.1.2 put on cwm and flashed rom

I would odin flash back to 4.2 to avoid Knox if you don't have it already. Sounds like you were already flashing custom Roms.
