Hey I am on Macks Allstar Rom and I keep getting an Android System update thats 28.5 MB. Tried to install but doesnt do anything and keeps popping up.
What should I do?

There are updates out. I believe that ROM is design just reboot as normal. You can either upgrade to 4.3 or kit Kat or delete the ota zip file with a file manager.

The OTAs do not flash in non stock recovery.

Hello everyone i wa wondering how can i remove cwm recovery from my phone? i want my phone to be clean! and i wanna have an ota update to JB first so after i can root!
Via ODIN but why? By the time you get the OTA there will be a custom ROM to flash... unless you are one of the lucky few to get it on the day of release.
Make sure to restore your stock recovery as well.

I do have one question though if I root my phone will I still get ota updates?
No you will not receive ota updates rooted. Unrooting is pretty easy though and someone usually turns the update into a flashable zip.

Flash with stock firmware for your phone model, or kernel only, if you have stock rom with cwm

is the flashable zip the exact! same thing as the ota update? does it come with touchwiz and all same features as ota update?

Well you have a att model it is going to take a very very very very long time before you see an update. Just wait for a rom here it will be so much better and sooner than anything att will give you.

Go to

To get your i317m model's Samsung Kies software
You can check for updates through that.
Make sure you back up everything before updating.
Hit the THANKS if I helped

I have the kias but I just want to know if I can just plug in my phone and hit up date or do I have to flash back to a stock Rom and the update and we'll that even work

No you can't just update through kies.
You have to be on one of the stock ROMs supported by Samsung first for kies to recognize a starting point. And it is possible to get into a reboot loop coming from a custom ROM. After you flash the stock ROM using Odin After your phone reboots, pull the battery, put it back in, go to recovery and reset/factory reset/clear cache & data so your stock ROM starts out clean.
This will eliminate the boot loop possibility.
And frankly since you're going to have to do a stock ROM flash why not just get the newest release you are aiming for and just flash it with Odin that way you don't have to deal with kies !
This is your newest Bell release it is Android 4.1.2 so if you have a thing for 4.2.2 Samsung hasn't released it.

Just remember to back up before you start messing with flashing back to stock.

You can use kies to update from other rom too.
Open kies - tools - firmware upgrade and initialization
You need your Sr number to proceed, you can find in setting - about device or from back side of device under battery.

Hi all I'm trying to find out how to update my note 2 to 4.3 I am 4.12 stock rooted, I didn't want to uproot should I wait for a device to make a rooted update zip or do I definitely have to uproot them update and root agian. Sorry but I'm a little confused about the process. Thx in advance

As long as you have stock recovery and you didn't flash any custom ROMs you could just update from the zip provided in the forum. You have to be bone stock . put zip on external SD card and flash it you will lose root but there's a way to get it back if you read the threads. Good luck i already updated and have no plans on going back.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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

And if I do flash the second one can u help me through the steps on what to click and will it all so install the stock recovery

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.
