Hey guys complete amateur at this and couldn't find a clear answer for the issue I'm having. I have an unrooted Galaxy S2, in Sri Lanka.
I believe that my carrier doesn't allow us to get OTA updates as I'm currently on 2.3.3. I've heard that there have been a few more updates since. Was just wondering would it be possible to root the phone and then upgrade to the latest Samsung firmware without installing any ROMs? Just want to break the carriers hold to receive OTA updates from Samsung is all I'm looking for? Is this possible? If it is could someone please point me in the right direction, would be much appreciated. Thanks.
You can install latest firmware without the need of rooting, just grab the orginal firmware (samfirmware.com) and flash it with odin.

Flashing orginal firmware via odin dosnt ask root, and dosnt void your warranty.
Thanks, sounds like the perfect solution!

I have galaxy s3 with frimware 4.1.2 with root device..and i want to update to jelly bean 4.3 offical android..and i use ota app..its say my device dont have permission..how can i update my phone?
Flash new firmware with odin or cwm, ota doesn't work on modified phones.
Apparently kies will still update it, but I've never used it myself.
Or flash your original saved firmware and get OTA.
hello everyone
i bought an unlocked ls990 g3 phone, it seems that it was originally locked
however the software version installed is ZV4 stock
the phone is unrooted but did not received any firmware updates through OTA
my questions are:
1- why i did not receive the official firmware update ?
2- if i update the firmware to zv6 then zv8 manually, will it lock the phone again?
3- if yes, which custom firmware is the best in terms of similarities as the stock firmware ?
i will appreciate if someone could help me
thanks a lot
Hi,
If you only root the phone and custom firmware has not been installed, do you still get OTA updates?
Thank you
