Hi,
I just rooted my Galaxy S3, & installing the Omega 6.0 Rom.
In my notification list there is a software update pending.
Can I update the software or it might cause problems with the rom?
thanks, Alon.
Btw, I'm new to Andoid and rooting. Sorry if it was already answered...

Last time I updated via KIES I did´nt do anything else as plug the phone in and update via KIES. BUT afther the update I lost my root, but no problem to root it again.
Thankyou mlhdk for helping
I already figured it out what todo as following:
I rooted my device again with newer version of CF-Root v6.3 as it supports Stock Firmware Updating (OTA) and rooted once more after successfully updating my device stock firmware.

Quick question, do you need to reinstall all the apps (root only apps) again after updating & reroot?
Maybe you cam help with this issue:
Phone was rooted and I downloaded the firmware via OTA (I didn't know!). I re-rooted it with CF-Root 6.3, which went fine.
Now If I check for software update it says "no update available." The build though is still the old I9300XXALE8 instead of ALF6.
Is the updated firmware file saved somewhere, and if yes can I install it via CWM?
What else can I do?
Thanks
Jay
Hi guys!
This is my first thread post so bare with me I have a galaxy s3 rooted with CWM recovery on stock ROM. If Samsung releases a jelly bean OTA update to us soon, will i be able to flash it or will it brick the phone?
I know i can always flash a custom JB ROM that i know CM9 and AOSP are currently working on, but if i want to do it officialy through Samsung, will i be able to? Are there any risks?!
Thanks!
as long as youve used chainfires cwm ver1.5+ youll be fine to get ota updates but you will need to run cf root again after the update.

OTA's
Since v1.5, flashing OTA updates is supported directly using this recovery. You should however be aware that said OTA will most likely re-install stock recovery and remove this one. Furthermore, it may keep doing so every time you boot. CF-Root v6.3 (and newer) will try to disable this, it is advised you flash that. Just reflashing this CWM recovery will likely not help.

Hello from a noob
. I purchased a Galaxys3 Verizon with android 4.1.1 from a fellow that did not disclose it was rooted.
I have no idea what the steps are if I would like to do the next up date and what will happen if I do it.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks snuke1e

Not sure that system update has a lot to do with root. First of all, you need to check if there're official updates for your device. And then, it's quite risky to install unofficial system updates (if there're any).
thanks for your answers. At the moment there isn't official update for my device...So i would to install a new cooked rom, like ICS... It's possible on my phone?

That depends on the ROM and the requirements it needs. You'd better consult ROM developers in this case.
Hello, been a member of these forums for a small time now but this is my first proper post. I own a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300, unlocked, rooted, CWM'ed, with a Siyah Kernel and running stock OS (currently 4.1.2.) I am not a very techy person myself and am surprised I managed to modify my device at all, yet alone to the minimal extent I have.
My question is this; how would I go about updating my device to 4.3 Jellybean? I understand I must remove root for an OTA update but I am not sure if the custom kernel will cause any complications during my install, and if I would need to remove CWM? I'd rather avoid waiting for Sammobile to release the ROM as I know this will require wiping all the data on my device - a hassle I'd rather avoid.
Thanks for your time and any feedback would be appreciated.
OTA update won't work with custom kernel and recovery.

Hi Guys
I'm relatively new to the world of ROM's and have over the pas few days successfully installed a GPE 5.1 ROM onto my i9505 (s4). All is running great however this morning I received a notification for an update from LMY470.S008.151101 to LMY470.S008.151202.
Question is this safe to do or should I stear clear of these updates as it might Brick my Phone ?
Sorry for the Noob question but thought I would check before doing anything.
hank Guys.
