Hello Devs,
I am a Galaxy Note 2 user (ATT SGH i317) and i have recently rooted my cellphone and i was wondering what i should do to install OTA updates. I got an OTA update and while trying to install it my teamwin recovery boots up when the phone is being restarted. So how do i install the new updates. Please help.
Go back to stock. You can't install OTA with custom recovery

Should really be posted in q&a section. But do you have any apps disabled by any chance?

My best advice is ROOT, TWRP it, and install either CLEAN ROM or SKY NOTE if you want something close to the stock rom.
I am running the Clean Rom 1.0 SE ATT version right now and I love it.
I had the same problem with the OTA update and I said EFF AT&T and their broke update and just did it myself.
It took me about 2 hours to get my phone all customized and set up the way I want it again but it was well worth it.

[whisper]If you read it, 4.3 will come[/whisper]
When you rooted, you got a custom recovery, and that stops the OTA update.
Hi all,
I just got a Note 2 T889 with OTA updated to 4.3. I rooted and installed JediMasterX2. Running well for past 3 days. Can I flash JediX20 if I wanted to or not possible on boot loader T889UVUCMK7?
Since I don't have warranty not issue with Knox.
Reason is that I remember getting exceptional battery life on 4.1.2 on my previous Note 2.
Thanks in advance.

Update, after suggestions from experienced xda members. I flashed jediX20 on 4.3 dootloader. So turns out as the zip file does not have the bootloader to install so installed as usuall. JediX20 does require to install twice as this is an issue with 4.1.2 install not the 4.3 bootloader.
Hello all, I'm new to this forum and I could really use some help with my phone. I have a rooted AT&T Samsung galaxy S3 running on 4.1.1 stock with cwm. I would like to update to the latest stock OS which is 4.3 but I'm not sure how to do it right. I would prefer to keep all my data but I don't mind losing root. how should I go about updating my device safely?

If you are rooted then you can flash any 4.3 ROM in the android development and they all have KNOX free bases. You will most likely need to update your baseband to MJB. Enjoy your KNOX free 4.3!!!

You should first check to see if you can get an OTA update. Some users have reported being able to update OTA to 4.3 even with root. Go to Settings => About Device and check for updates. If you can't get an OTA update, you may try manually updating via cwm via the method posted in the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
Before updating to 4.3, however, I would suggest you ensure you are done with taking advantage of all the opportunities you have at 4.1.1 including free unlock as you would not be able to downgrade the 4.3 bootloader once you've upgraded. If you don't have Samsung Kies installed on your PC, you may install it to back up and restore your data. In other words, you cannot go back to an older version (easily) once you have upgraded.
I have a recently purchased T700 that I haven't rooted yet. Sounds like the Lollipop OTA is coming soon and I'm trying to figure out if I should wait to root after the update appears. Does anybody know a good way to take the OTA if you have a rooted device with custom recovery?

Hi you will not be able to take the OTA update if you have custom recovery you will have to use Odin to update.
