Software Updating

Hello , XDA community.
I have a T - Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3. Here are the current stats on the device.
Model: SGH-T999
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband: T999xxxx
Kernel: 3.0.8- 1083013
Build: IMM76D.T999
Okay , so here's my problem. My device is rooted. Stock kernel I think. I don't remember doing anything special. Just a root.
Everyday my device gets to notification to update. Everytime I choose to update , the device just reboots and goes into CWM Recovery. I really want my device to just update to JellyBean without having to reset or wipe the device neither unrooting it. Is this possible ?
I hope I was clear enough with all the information.

You won't be able to do an Over The Air update with a custom recovery. Why do you have a custom recovery with a stock rom lol? There are a few roms out there with very stock everything. Or you can use odin to get there... searching will get you where you need. Also, you are about 2 months behind everyone else lol.

Yes I am aware , I only wanted my phone rooted for a few applications. Never cared much about ROMS. Do you care to point me to a fairly decent rom , something that is quick and lag free , yet not to crazy. I am only asking you because you seem to be very updated.

Oh I am, lol. I'll give you something very plain.

scroll down to "SGH-T999 OTA Updates (for use in recovery)" and get the latest "UVALJ4 - UVDLJA"

Hmm FrostyJB in the dev section.

Way to modded, this guy was on stock with root... I gave him stock with root. If he wants to go crazy and install a rom with custom looks, and mods to it (that alot of people like and some dislike),That's on him to research, like in my resource thread.

How to update Android 4.3 on a Galaxy S3 Tmobile SGH-T999L?
Hi there,
I´m new to the forum and I´m just a phone user. I´ve been reading different forums and messages and I think this is the correct one to post my question. If I´m wrong, please recommend me the appropriate forum if you know it . I must add that English is not my mother tongue and that I´m not familiar with terminology like flashing, mod, stock...
Having said that, here you have some background
I bought a Galaxy S3 Tmobile SGH T999L in the US in Jul 2014. I came back to my country, Spain, and as Tmobile doesn´t operate here I had to take it to a shop to unlock it and use with another supplier. The phone works reasonably well, though doesn´t totally benefit from 4G because the range of mobile frequencies used in Spain is different from the one in the US, with only partial coincidence. So it was my mistake to buy it there asuming that it would be 100% compatible here. But that´s not the issue. The issue is this:
I have recently downloaded several apps that informed me that because the O.S. is old (Android 4.3) I can´t benefit from some functionalities of the apps. .So I think I need to update to a higher version.
I have checked Tmobile US webpage where somebody asked the same question in a forum and they told him: "you flash a custome ROM (which we cannot discuss here, go to XDA developers if you are interested". And that´s why I´m here, because I have no idea of what that means, although I guess it might be related to deleting the content of the original ROM - and I suppose the O.S. is stored there- and substituting it by a higher O.S.
Below please find all technical data that I could find about my model, if this helps:

Need help rooting my Galaxy Tab 3 7.0

Hey Guys,
I am having trouble figuring out if it is possible to root my Tab 3 7.0 and install CyanogenMod.
I am familiar with rooting/installing rooms as I have my S3 rooted but I merely followed a well put together by some smart ass dude .... hehe
I cant seem to find any easy step by step guides here. If there are any can someone post them or give me some information on how to get this done. Thanks.
Tab Info:
Model Number: SM-T210R (Canadian)
Android Version: 4.1.2
Let me know if anyone could help.
Cheers

I used the Kingo Root App for my SM-T217S Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, and it worked to perfection. I don't see why it wouldn't work for yours as well. It is really simple to do as well, only takes about five minutes. Hope this helps.

@VancouverGreek
So you have rooted your S3, so I think you have expierence with Odin how to root and flash ROMs.
At the moment we have no CM ROMs, these are still under develepment.
Take a look to general threats , here you will find the first thread Videos, Guide for Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 by Tomsgt with all links.
Also you find a lot of threats for prerootet Stock Roms ore modifyed Stocktroms with deleted bloatware apps, so your Tab runs smooth without lags and stable, also I prefers to install the blackhawk kernel, with kernel is the Kernel panic mode fixed.
here are the links to tomsgt: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2459817

I hope this post are helpful

[Q] Out-of-date build, pls help me update safely?

My phone is horribly out of date and I want to catch it up. I got lazy and haven't followed through on planned updates, and now I'm running into a lot of weirdness and crashes. I would dearly appreciate some help.
I'm still in 4.1.1, but want to get something more current, but the last stock recovery I can find is 4.2 (T889UVBMD1), and I'm not sure I'll find the right thing if I dig through the 50 pages of thread.
SGH-T889
baseband T889UVALJ1
kernel 3.031-260018
build number JRO03C.T889UVALJ1
I do want to preserve my root, if at all possible.
Thanks for helping me get started!

[Q] [Rooting-Help] GT-N7105

Hello there,
I'm new to this forum, also i'm totally new to 'rooting'.
I want to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (GT-N7105, 4.3 jelly)
I've searched around the web for quite some time now. I've read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933542, but i still have a question about it.
My phone:
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 4G
Modelnummer: GT-7105
Android-version 4.3
Baseband-version N7105XXUEMK2
In the topic of Chainfire's post of the CF-Auto-Root says GT-7105 is suitable for the CF-Auto-Root. But i'm still unsure about the Baseband-version, does the baseband-version matter?, if not is my phone then suitable for the CF-Auto Root?
(Why am i unsure about the Baseband-version; well that is because if i search on the web "GT-N7105 how to root", i find many with different baseband-versions so thats why it made me make this thread, sorry if it was a totaly useless thread and if the answer was 100% clear. But i kinda wanted to be sure before i start following the steps of CF-Auto-Root)
Hope any of you can help me with that question.

I think baseband version doesn't matter, but CF-auto root won't work anyway as there's Knox and it will block the superuser app.
Best if You change kernel (with CWM) and flash some knox free ROM.

Dylanaw,
If it helps, I flashed my GT-7105 a number of times this week to overcome an issue with my email and a poxy security feature (in the loosest of terms). Whilst I have zero affinity to one ROM or another I have eventually settled on the OMNI 4.4 ROM that you will find on the front page of the GT-7105 development page. Why? Easy really, as it is the clearest ROM in terms of steps to take and what to do :good: especially for newbs. So, if you really want to install a custom ROM then this is a good one to start with! Regards the baseband question, on this ROM my machine is displaying a baseband-version of N7105XXUMJ9.
I hope this helps.
WB

Thank you for your answers,

[HELP] Samsung Galaxy Pro SM-P900

Hey guys, I am a complete noob when it comes to this. Last time I installed any recovery or flashed a ROM was on my Nexus 4, years ago. I have found my Samsung Galaxy Pro (10.1") SM-P900 lying around and this thing is still on Android Version 5.0.2.
I'd like to install a recovery, root, and flash a ROM, or an upgraded software version. I'm sorry if that doesnt make sense but I just want this device to start running faster and I'd like to slowly get back to flashing ROMs on it depending on my liking.
Could you guys kindly link me to other threads that deal with my exact problem? Or please let me know here what I can or at least where I can start? Any thread I look for already has people on advanced steps or they're using a different device. ANY help is appreciated. Thank you so much.

Well, you should start here. Lots of reading though!
