I'm rooted using latest chainfire 6.2. How can I get this installed . Do I have to unroot
Giving it some beans on my blue s3
As your screen shot says, use Kies!
Yes I know that . But why will it not work ota . Is it because I'm rooted

So the same thing just happened to me. How did you end up updating? With kies?
Anyone have any idea why it would fail ota? Mine is also rooted.
Have the same problem with the OTA, Spain, unbranded. I can't even flash it through CF-CWM.
Will have to wait until my wife comes with her computer, mine can't run Kies.
I just updated mine via Kies. It was rooted (stock rom)
Now its not rooted anymore, so i have to root it again.
/Pete
Yea I just updated via Kies as well, worked fine, except it failed downloading the update a few times, so i tried on a different laptop, and it was all good.
What version was the 3 UK update?

Could the problem be that I integrated system app updates in the /system? Or it's just that it's rooted?
me too. i'm getting failed OTA updates. the OTA update should be working will with chainfire 6.3 right? any help guys?
Had the same. Updated through Kies but lost root. Think it knows the system is modified so won't work ota.
To all with problems: OTA won't work with rooted devices!! Use Kies. And yes, you will lose root, but thanks to Chainfire that's very easy to restore...
My guess is that the failed OTAs have got to do with the custom recovery, that's why Kies works.
OTA does not work with custom recoveries like cwm.
What you need to do is let it download, move it out of /cache/fota/ to your sdcard, then update via cwm as you would with a custom rom. You will then need to reroot your device.

SGS3(rooted) can't update firmware via OTA(even Kies )it will stop on CWM
This what I did successfully
1.up firmware(use Odin) to CF-Root v6.3(that will have CWM 5.5 ver. 1.5)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695238
2.Then update firmware via OTA (settings>About device>Software update)check your firmware version in About device it should be new samsung firmware and that you will unroot you phone too
3.Re-root step 1 again if you want to root
Finally, I have successfully updated my stock rooted SGS3. Here's what I've done (upon my discovery)
1. For all the changes you've made on the root folder (/ or /system), make sure to put everything back to its normal state as the OTA looks up for signed apps/modified apps on those folders before updating. In my case, I had to remove the hyperx camera mod and make it to stock again as well as deleting unnecessary files like build.prop.bak that I've made. Just make everything SAME as the stock and everything will work as normal.
2. Make sure you're using CFRoot 6.3
3. After OTA update, you will surely lose your root. Just flash CFroot once again.
I have done all u say, but it will not let me update, keeps saying use kies but kies dont work for me keeps hanging after it says update firmware.

My sincere apologies. *I did not want to garner any undue hostility to jcase or viperboy as the Root process was not at fault in any way.
It was only what we all happened to do once we had it. (deleting bloatware)

3 attempts so far and each time after the firmware downloads and the prime reboots, right after the Android with the gears shows up he turns into an android with an exclamation mark.
Then after a 5 minute boot I get a system message that says:
Post here if you failed too, and solutions you have.
Attempts:
first - Device was nachorooted, root backed up via OTA rootkeeper. FAILED
second - with root disabled via OTA rootkeeper FAILED
third - removed root via viperboy's tool FAILED
fourth - factory reset then update FAILED
fifth - just going to repeat the stock attempts until something looks different
No idea if this would work but maybe use that tool viperboy made to unroot yours and then try (pretty sure it has an unroot option)? Not sure why that would help since rooted users have successfully updated but may be worth a shot.
sorry forgot to mention that was my 3rd attempt
i'm on #4 now just doing a factory reset first.
Having this same issue. Not sure what the problem is, but it keeps failing.
I too am rooted.
Trying out this E4GT...
exact same thing happened to me, except I have no idea how to try to update again, when I go to about phone, system update, the check update box is greyed out.
How exactly do you factory reset on .33 with the .33 zip on asus's website?

method 4 failed as well, any ideas anyone?
How are ya'll able to try the update more than once? Are you just talking about reboot or are you actually downloading the update again? the reason I ask is that I am unable to click the check update button.

I'm following what you mean.
edit:
when I click system firmware update the "check update button is grayed out but it just starts downloading in my tray automagically.
Rest all data, unrooted, still no luck. 4 failed attempts, not sure what would be any different from the rooted users that are able to update.
This is why you guys shouldnt have rooted knowing ICS was around the corner.
I too am getting failed. I used VipreMod to root and I've tried unrooting using said tool and also using the OTA root backup tool.

Don't need to unroot. Copy the file to the root folder of your ext SD and apply it using Moto Recovery. You will need to restore root after the update, so make sure you backup using Voodoo OTA rootkeeper.

Try this:
a) Take a full backup of your data and apps using TB
b) Unroot using Voodoo OTA Root keeper, you will NEED the backup.
c) Go into moto recovery and wipe data/factory reset the phone
d) Reboot and copy the file to the root of your ext-SD if you have not already
done so.
e) Go back into moto recovery and try installing the update.

Have you frozen or uninstalled any default/stock applications or bloatware?
I got a notification on the phone (a pop up screen) only after I copied the file to the ext-sdcard whilst the Razr was connected to the PC. You need requisite Moto drivers to be installed.
Moto drivers? Which drivers?

Right, since you have the drivers and if your phone is on stock without any frozen or uninstalled Moto bloatware you should be good to go then. :laugh:

Flashing with the offline flash method comes with a risk, and waiting for the ota or trying all the tricks to receive a ota is time consuming, and if you do get the update (via ota) you need all bloatware and no changes (to build.prop & completely remove artas182cwm) or the update will fail. I had the official ota update to jellybean (20D) crash on me 3 times and had to wait to get the update again. S***ed donkey balls, lol

Thanks for the upgrade zip. Seemed to have worked well. No apparent problems. The play store is working, though I didn't clear any caches before flashing.

If you want to modify it you can use Android Kitchen, just "set up working folder from rom" any rom will do, remove everything in "WORKING_" directory, copy everything from OTA zip into the "WORKING_" dir and edit "META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script"
I'm sure someone with 10g will find it useful.

Thank you Korado for answer.
Yes ,I know after the latest update this method is doesnt work,but we have one solution.
If you are still using Official JB 4.2.2 XXUAMFB Firmware first download from PlayStore Voodoo OTA rootkeeper.
Link:https://play.google.com/store/search?q=voodoo%20ota%20rootkeeper&hl=tr
After installing Voodoo apk open it and press PROTECT ROOT buton.Now you can update your device via OTA.
After update your device open Voodoo root keeper app. and press RESTORE ROOT buton.You will see the root is come back.
But If these procedures before you update,my advice is flash Official JB 4.2.2 XXUAMFB Firmware via odin and do the above procedures from the beginning.
NOTE:I dont try update via KİES .

This didn't work for my LTE model. Instead I downloaded the program which rooted in one click. It won't let me post a link as I'm new but head to mgyun dot com slash vroot
It's in Chinese which I don't understand but I plugged in the phone, clicked the green button and it rooted it, then I just installed Super SU from Play Store and all is good

Unfortunately, NC5 has built-in tools to prevent rooting. Any rooting process done with ODIN or bootloader is disabled on startup (thus, the Android is upgrading grey window). Until someone finds a workaround, I don't think there is a way yet. Which stinks, since I'm stuck in the same boat you are.

What exactly do you mean NC5 has built in tools to prevent rooting? I and tons of other people are all rooted.

Just use chainfires cfautoroot for the 9005, use Odin 3.09, then Odin twrp 2.7.01, flash superuser and you're good to go.

I booted up my fresh install of NC5
I reboot to upload mode and install TWRP
I let the phone boot normally
I reboot to recovery
I let TWRP install root when rebooting
During bootup, "Andriod is upgrading" gray box pops up, but it doesn't do the usual "Upgrading app x of y" message
I got to the app drawer, open SuperSU
I get the error "There is no SU binary installed"
Same thing happens when I use ODIN Auto Root.
the only explanation I can think of is that the ROM checks for root on bootup, and if it exists, removes Superuser access.

Did you use CFautoroot first for the 9005? And using Odin 3.09 seems to play best with our phones, you may have just had a bad experience with your attempt, you can always try rjwilcos one click method or micmars nc5 tar and go back to complete stock and try the process again.

I'm on NC5 and it took me a while to rot and get twrp to install on my n3. Here is what I did.
I used Odin 3.09
completely turn off phone
go into download mode
flash CFroot n900p to root
Let it go thru a full boot, then turned it off
Go into download mode
flash twrp 2.7.0.0. or 2.7.0.1
that did it for me.

I am going to guess that part of my issue was bad flash and part wrong AutoRoot version. I had been using 9005, but the n900p from the below post worked better.

This also was the working process for me. Honestly, it was the same order I was doing things, but for some reason being patient on the reboots helped. It probably also helped prevent issues with the flashing. Long story short, both these posts helped, and the process listed by rosystreasures is what I would suggest.
