I unlocked my bootloader a few months ago to try some custom roms. I didn't like any of them so I went back to the stock rom/firmware. I still receive notifications about new updates but I also still have the bootloader unlocked, so I don't know if that can cause an issue when updating.
Any help?
Sorry man but ota update note working when bootloader unlocked. And you can't go back to official state.
Stock firmware

You should be able to go back to Official state by flashing stock firmware with Odin .

I have the Official state enabled, that's why I receive notifications about new updates. I guess If it was marked as 'Custom' instead of 'Official' it wouldn't even search for updates but that's not the case
A new update just popped up in Settings but I don't know if I should install it via OTA or via Odin

hi guys ihave an strange issue iwas using stock yakju 4.0.2 getting the update via ota
but after root and flash another rom idecide to come back to stock so via odin icame back to 4.0.1 thinking that iwill recieve the update directly ! but ididnt !! is there any problem or ?google stopped the ota update !!
From what I know, you have to have the bootloader locked. With it unlocked you won't receive the OTA. I maybe wrong though...
yes you are right but if you came back to 4.0.1 via odin the bootloader will automaticlly locked ! as i know and the unlock image which is below google type when i open the device dissapear so iguess that already locked
You can get the OTA with an unlocked boot loader but make sure you have the stock boot loader and radio as well as the ROM.

the problem is im not getting it dunno why so do you guys recmmend to unlock root the device and just flash any thing i want due to recovery !? and which is faster flash update due to recovery or getting ota updates ? from your experience
Did you flash a YAKJU image? Not everyone with the YAKJU** image have gotten the update, so be sure to check which one you have (should say in build.prop i believe or any system info app).
Also, why'd you use ODIN? Just use fastboot to flash the stock images Google provide
I think not everyone receive the OTA update from Google
Maybe 10 minutes after getting my Nexus i got the notification to update to 4.0.2. Mine was yakju out the box. Booted device up for the first time and my Nexus was in Japanese.
I always get the 4.0.2 OTA when i restore the phone to stock ITL41F.
I restored my phone today again and i dont recibe OTA update, seems to be disabled the OTA updates.
Maybe Google is changing something? who knows XD But i´m pretty sure that something happens with the OTA updates for yakju since yesterday.
PD; sorry about my english... XD
I'm still stuck on 4.0.1 on mine, and it came with yakju...so maybe the update still hasn't finished rolling out? Anyone have any other thoughts?

Stock bootloader? There is no other kind at the moment. And besides, it does not affect anything. Stock radio? Again, all radios available at the moment are stock. I think what you meant to say was the yakju radio. Although it is needed to install the OTA update, it will not affect you getting notification of an OTA update if you are using a radio that comes from a different stock build other than yakju.

Yes, I would recommend flashing the latest yakju image (if you don't mind wiping, as unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device). See link in my signature for how to flash to the latest yakju version.

No one knows the logic behind how updates are pushed out. Just flash the latest build, or update your current build (if your bootloader is unlocked). See link in my signature for how to update your build.
thank you guys especially efrant for your advise ijust rooted and unlocked my gnexus and flashed the last google image using tooklit so easy
I recibe the OTA update one hour ago, the problem with OTA updates is solved.
Today I received the new update message, last time it tried to install it itself after 3 times postponed. But for for reason it failed. Is it because the phone is rooted ?
What if AT&T release the Jelly bean update in the future and I want to install it. How do I fix the update error message? Do I need to un-root the phone first ?

+1. I also have stock LEM firmware and I am rooted(everything is stock though). When I try to update to LG1 via OTA, it downloads the update and reboots in CWM and fails to update. When I plugin via Kies to update, it times out.
Is there any way to update to LG1 when you are rooted?

Correct me if I'm wrong but it should work if you have the stock recovery - which in your case you don't but not necessarily in the OP's case. Unless the OP wasn't perfectly clear.
Maybe you need to go back to stock first?

Is there any way I can remove CWM and go back to stock recovery? I rooted my phone using this easy guide http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-r...gh-t999sgh-i747sph-l710-fail-proofnoob-proof/
I am not worry about the minor update from AT&T, we all expect to get Jell Bean soon. Just want to make sure we can download the update and install it properly without any errors. So should we go stock? What will be the steps? Download the stock firmware and use Odin flash it back?
I wouldn't worry about the official update. Usually in a day or two of official release, there will be an official firmware in package in the development section.
Did you mean we can just download the custom jelly bean firmware and install it as custom rom instead of the official one from AT&T? I think that make sense.

When its released, yes. That's one reason there are threads just for stock firmware.
I reverted back to stock yesterday to receive Jelly Bean update but it says my phone is up to date.
I flashed recovery, locked the bootloader and used RUU 1.29
I'm TMobile UK CID005
When the phone rebooted update 4.0.4 came though, I downloaded and updated the phone to 2.17
No more updates are coming through however. I'm not sure if I flashed stock recovery or not (If I didn't would have update above come through?). Anyway can I reflash the stock recovery just to be sure? And how would I go about this? Also I have a custom Kernal if that makes any difference? Cheers
if you run the ruu then you're on stock already. maybe there's still no JB update for your CID.

maybe because you're still on stock rom.
Sometimes the updates won't show automatically, if you return to stock in ways like this. its recommended to check manually in the settings menu for updates .... consider this as a small "bug"
Hi,
Here is my sad story. Long time ago I've upgraded to official 4.3 rom as it became available by Samsung, didn't like it and downgraded to official 4.1.1 rom. As I didn't know about knox at that time I've got nice knox warranty void flag I know that there is no way to remove it. But the question is about flash counter. Is there any way to reset it, put device into official mode and have official ota updates? Is there any tutorial about this? Thanks.
You can download stock rom from sammobile.com you can then would be eligible for OTA updates and to reset the flash counter you can use triangle away app ( but its risky )

Are you saying that if I upgrade to 4.3.3 again I'll eligible for OTA updates even if I'm not in official status? I'm on official 4.1.1 and I'm not eligible for ota updates.

Yes if you flash offical stock rom from sammobiles.com you would be able to get all the OTA updates.
Then please explain the following - I'm on official stock 4.1.1 now and I'm not eligible for OTA. Why is that? And why will this change if I upgrade to 4.3.3 again?

I have the same issue. This is because you have the firmware for other regions. I like taiwan version and I can not find the drain firmware.
