Hello guys
I just wanted to ask: does rooting my device affect software update by any means?
I mean, for example, will the OTA service be lost? And if not, will the coming update make my device lose its root?
Thank you.
You will Still be able to update through OTA, kies, Odin but when you update you will loose root and have to reroot.

If you root and then change your ROM to a customer one, then you will loose the Samsung OTA Update Support.
Once more .
Root may see OTA update fail to install.

How do I apply these OTA updates rolling today for galaxy S3 on a rooted S3 (Clockword MOD recovery)?
OTA updates don't work on rooted devices, you'll have to update via kies and to my knowledge you'll lose root, not 100% so don't hold me to that

if you want ota with a rooted stock firmware you can give chainfire's kernel a try. according to him, his kernel can survive an ota update. heres the thread

At this moment I have stock rom, but rooted. Will I be able to get the JB update when it'll come out? Will I lose the root? Will it be a problem?

Yes you can OTA update, yes you will loose root but you shouldn't have any issues. You will be able to re-root in a matter of seconds using CF root or the toolkit.
Once more your OTA update may fail during install on a rooted rom .
Multiple posts report update failed .

If it fails ota you should have no issues with kies. I have had to do this for 2 of the 3 ota updates I have received so far. This will also lose root though.

Hi,
I have root my I9205 after I bought it three months ago. (I just root it nothing more)
Now I want to upgrade the stock rom (coz there are some minor problems)
Will I be able to upgrade the Stock ROM (OTA) after unrooting my I9205??
Anything else I need to consider??
Many thx!!

AFAIK OTA after rooting is not possible. Phone has to be 'virgin' stock to have possibility to upgrade by OTA.
Just flash the latest stock Rom, this will update and unroot all in one go.

Thx brother I will give it a try!
I tried to check for an update on custom ROM and got the ur device is modded and can't get updates. As expected but I also get the same message when I restore to stock rooted. Will I need to unroot to receive the update. Never had a problem accepting an update b4. Lost root of course but that's it. Anybody wanna chime in? Thanx in advance.

What I do is Odin back to stock... Data wipe... Flash through Odin a second time... Data wipe again... And you should be able to accept updates again :thumbup::sly:

You can get OTA updates when your phone reports back, in Odin mode, with "Official" for both Samsung and Status
in short you will need to revert to stock ROM and recovery and wipe it 2-3 times like @FLBoy1991 said
Is the KitKat OTA out yet?
Can I update to the new firmware being rooted on stock without any problems if I use samsung kies? Will I lose roo?

only thing u will loose it root, but u can re-root flash update.
On your rooted S5, does knox shows 0(official) or 1(tempered with) ?
And to your question, I think Kies with not update you device since it's rooted, try it yourself and see.
once it rooted it will show 1 and mine it rooted and i updated with Kies without any problem.
Ok ty
