How to OTA when rooted?

My s4 is rooted and I want to update to 4.3 when it comes out in a few weeks. I'm only rooted with no custom rom. I only rooted for ad block..so how will this work? Will I have to unroot before OTA?

Usually root only is fine but I wouldn't be so quick to update to 4.3 if it does come out.
???

Really why not? How come it says my phone has been modified..

You cant ota rooted, but honestly you don't want to ota 4.3 unless you want to be stuck with it for a while. Knox is included and it makes things a bit complicated. Just wait for someone to make a Knox free 4.3 rom probably come out the same day as the ota

Those Knox mean locked bootloader?
Would like to be stock rooted after update. Or will root be possible?

Help please

I flashed the new rom for galaxy s3 i747 baseband i747ucuemjb ver. 4.3 and rooted it but everytime I try to use romtoolbox or superSU I get the security notice. I did some research and I believe this is due to KNOX... how would I remove knox? i tried to use terminal to do it but terminal wont allow me to use su commands at all...
Thanks in advance

Removing Knox goes way further then just an apk file my recommendation would be to use the 4.3 Roms provided By loserskater

Yeah I agree you need to Odin back to stock 4.1.2 or you need to just do it

NO!
This is terrible advice and will brick your phone. Do not for any reason try to downgrade from MJB 4.3 to any 4.1.1 ROM.
Allrockedout, be sure to know what you are talking about before you advise others to brick their phone!

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.

I am also on Jedi X 20 with Rogers. Could I flash this with Mobile Odin using the Ever Root feature?

UPDATE: I took a bit of a risk but I have flashed it with Mobile Odin with Ever Root and everything's good to go! Still rooted! Just restoring applications/app data now.

Do I stock recovery also

I'm not sure you could try and let use know you findings!
But I recommend going the normal route.

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

Install 4.1.2 custom rom on 4.3 bootloader

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?

I have had no issues. With roms on 4.3 Other then my Knox counter tripping.

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

I'm looking to install clean rom 5.0 with 4.3 bootloader

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 was going to say just use Odin to return to stock JB. I found that advice in a thread about this for at&t, but later on the thread a Canadian user said it worked for him.

If you flash the official Samsung 4.3 Jellybean MK2 odin flash firmware you cannot go
back to the stock 4.2.2 Jellybean MDL firmware whether you root your phone or not.
Rooting the 4.3 official jellybean odin flash firmware will trip the knox counter unless
you do a lot of reading and find the alternative rooting methods here in xda.
Good luck!
