I just got my new refurb TB with 1.13.605.7 already installed, is it possible to root without downgrading?
Wrong section my friend and the downgrade is a necessity. If want to discuss further please move to q&a ;-)

As in a permanent S-off root? No. I'm not even sure this question belongs here. I know its been answered repeatedly in other threads.
Sorry for posting in the wrong section.

It would also make sense to search before you post. You could even argue that it'd make sense to take a look at the threads on the first page...

And again sorry, But its not like the world is going too end because of this mistake i made.
All it takes is a mod too come by and move it if they want.
But ya got my atrix on 4.1.5.7 rooted
Moved to proper forum.
Did you root with Glad? If so and you haven't done any mods just accept the update and run afterupdate.bat again.
I was going too make a new thread my next question but decided this thread should do.
I finally got the system updater message on the atrix too pop up for the 1.83 too show, But before i update too that, I wanted too ask that when i update too it i know root will work on it but what about any future mods or hacks? And can i downgrade back too the old ones if i wanted?
Thanks
I would like todo a temp root for back-up before doing complete root. Following this guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218193, I download RW_EVO_3D (Fr3vo_root) yet I am concered as I preformed the ota update yesterday to 2.08.651.2.
Since I'm unsure how the temp root completely works, does it still function as expected after the recent update or is it advised to wait?
/edit, thanks for the clarification (and apologies for posting in the wrong forum), solved using reply and link to https://twitter.com/#!/agrabren/status/104242060193837058
Agrabren tweeted yesterday that the fr3vo exploit was patched in the 2.3.4 update. You aren't able to temp root right now nor run revolutionary to s-off.
And just an FYI before everybody flames you, this should have been posted in the general section.

Insecure I777UCKH7 kernel needed for rooting. the link above has a flash for a rooted system kernel. Would this work for rooting? If yes, would I still need to root with s2root? If flash won't work for rooting, what insecure kernels will work for my phone?

There is a sticky that explains how yo root. Why don't you try it? I linked it to you in the other thread you created. Why are you making this more difficult than it really is?

If I were you, I would read everything first before asking simple questions that have already been answered. He is not being rude, rather you are. There is a fountain of knowledge here and all you have to do is read, but you are being lazy and expect everything to be spoon fed to you.
If I'm irritating you two so badly, please don't respond. I don't need the headache. Either impart some knowledge to me or move on to another post.

The only thing irritating is the fact that you aren't reading the information already given to you or following the forum rules.

'look, if you aren't going to just GIVE me the answer when i demand it, i dont need you posting in my worthless thread'
'i just dont want to take the time to read the information i have already been given, and directed to. i would rather waste time waiting on someone to spoonfeed it to me from a silver platter. now go do my bidding, man servant'
i think that pretty much sums up the thread.
hopefully someone can answer this!
probably a stupid question but here goes anyway...

Sorry if it's being asked a lot. I was flashing ROMs last night and I wasn't in the most stable of mind set. Anyway I wake up to a text from my buddy about this update. I remember doing a Samsung update but not an ota and it never went to download mode. How can I tell if I updated it?
I keep seeing VRUAME7 as the new update but this is my current about info and my build is obviously a different rom but my baseband isn't what I see as the before and after screenshot and I just checked my phone with a root checker and it passed. Sorry for being a noob but I came from a gnex! Can anyone give me an idea how to check if I did or if I'm fine?
Sorry I meant to post this in help / q&a not general sorry please move it!!

You're running a custom ROM (CleanROM), so you don't have the update. You do not want to flash the update since it kills root access and prevents the bootloader workaround. This is discussed in nearly every thread in the forum right now.

Yeah I know I don't want the update (not being a ****) just wanted to make sure that somehow I did update to it. I don't plan on updating. Thank you for the info. I was scared for a second. Thank you.

If you updated you wouldn't have a Root and I don't think you'd have a custom ROM.

The update fails if you have a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM), which is needed to flash roms. So as long as you have a custom recovery the update can't go through

Thank you. Thanks everyone. I was used to nexus prior to this so I wasn't sure. Thanks for all the answers. I have root, still on CleanRom, build/radio didn't change and can access recovery. Thanks again and sorry that this is in the wrong section.

No problem. I came from the Gnex too and there is definitely a little bit of a learning curve with the S4 modding scene compared to the Gnex. Questions are the only way we learn!

Yes. Especially since I don't fully understand this auto Loki (I understand it flashes a pre release kernel that is insecure hence how I rooted the phone via Odin and motochopper in the first pkace), that and with the boot loader still being locked or at least not unlocked and being bypassed I wasn't 100% positive. Now can I flash the new modem.bin from the update via Odin without messing anything up? From this thread:
