[Q] Is something like cwm for tablet s? - Sony Tablet S

Im new on tablet s, and im wonder if there is a way to backup all the system like when i use cwm in other devices.
My device isTablet S SGPT111AR/S 4.0.3 r1a ROOTED by bin4ry method

im thinking to do this procedure
TWEAKS AND MODS SUBMENU:
[ICS-OK] Install "rescue-backdoor" - anti-bootloop protection, gives opportunity to reflash current firmware
if something goes wrong with modifying system things.
[ICS-OK] Run OTA ZIP autodownloader - you've got to have "System Update" notification to use it.
Make it if new OTA comes in, or after "rescue-backdoor".
[ICS-OK] Toggle OTA system updates and notifications - you can disable annoying update notifications
(after "rescue-backoor"). Also enable back.
but i have a question, what will happend if i do the rescue-backdor procedure, and then when the update notification apears i press update the system?
i will have a non rooted Stock 4.0.3 and thats it? or something could go wrong?
cheers

Yes that is correct. It will install stock ota. Use ota disable in aio

Ok, thank you

well, after doing all the procedure correctly:
[ICS-OK] Install "rescue-backdoor" - anti-bootloop protection, gives opportunity to reflash current firmware
if something goes wrong with modifying system things.
[ICS-OK] Run OTA ZIP autodownloader - you've got to have "System Update" notification to use it.
Make it if new OTA comes in, or after "rescue-backdoor".
after that process, i decided to update when the ota update notification apear, update download started and then the update process, when the update proces finishs the tab restart as ussual, but it get stuck on the sony logo forever, so i powered of the tab, then power on, the tab booted ok, but a window apeared saing something like update unsuccesfull error code 0
need some light here to install a stock ota again, any help will be apreciated
cheers

Ok, finally solved

The OTA ICS update is already live, but you cannot update if your phone is rooted.
Having root doesn't affect the download of the OTA update. You can wait for it to notify you, or you can go to Settings -> Device Info -> System Updates to start the download. Having root, you can save the update .zip and .crc files from /cache and put them on your SD Card which is useful for some update methods.
Root and things you can do with root affect whether the update works or not. Installing Busybox in /system/bin, installing bootstrap or safestrap, installing a custom recovery, and who knows what else can prevent the update from completing properly. The guides often recommend wiping the phone with Matt's Droid Razr Utility 1.6 (maybe modified) or 1.7.

Problem after OTA upgrade

I did an OTA upgrade to LG8 and Rooted with CF-Root6.4 and now every time I reboot it shows the "Android is upgrading" message, so anyone know how to fix this without reflashing Rom because I won't be home until next week.
Try to remove the synchronization with samsung account , if there is still a notification, you have to do a wipe date , factory reset ....
unable to update after root
why did i can run the OTA after root? is it normal? the clockwork recovery said the the signature was not recognized.
Fundamental element in order to be able to complete the update process of the Galaxy is to have a firmware entirely original.
If you have on your phone a test version, root permissions enabled or a modified kernel installed (e.s. , CF-Root) will be unable to update.

I was Rooted when I got the OTA update and apart from this problem which isn't really a problem it all went through fine, so guess I'll just wait and use Odin to see if it fixes.

[Q] How to permanently defer the VRALL4 OTA update?

I'm currently running the stock VRALJB ROM, but do have it rooted, unlocked bootloader, CWM, and custom Kernel installed.
Yesterday when the VRALL4 OTA message popped up, it had an option to Defer or Reject. But tonight it only had the option to Defer, and made me select a date and time (limited within 5 day) to install the update.
Is there a way to permanently put the OTA update off? I really don't want it installed and loose root/unlocked status.
EDIT:
I saw in another thread to remove the SDM app, so I uninstalled it with ROM Toolbox, since Titanium Backup wouldn't let me unless I updated to the Pro version. Now when I click on Software Update, it just sits there for a few seconds and then says Settings has stopped, and goes back to the home screen.
Good when you click software update it should force close. You're safe now.

[Q] Verizon OTA update 4.1.2 won't download

This morning I noticed I had an update available. I'm rooted with TWRP and SuperSU, by the way. After doing a little research first, I decided to download Voodoo OTA RootKeeper v2.0.3 just to be on the safe side. I then decided to let the update run it's course but it failed and took me to TWRP recovery. I was able to reboot to the regular system, but I've been getting the Verizon OTA update notification all day, but it just stays at the "busy" status bar without actually starting to download anything. When I try to access "Software Update" in the About phone menu under Settings, it says "Download interrupted. Software download will resume automatically." And then in a couple of hours, the whole process repeats.
I'm at a loss here. Is there a program that is slapping the OTA update down like TWRP? If so, how do I bypass it?
Thanks in advance.

LTE Tab Z Rooted - OTA Update Fails

Evening all i have been using my Rooted tab Z on 4.3 for a fair while now. But the Flickering is getting to much.
SO today i saw my 4.4 is ready to install via OTA.
I understood, that OTA means i will keep root?
Here are the problems:
Downloaded the 4.4 Update 369mb 10 times in a row
Click Install and it shuts down
Android Upgrading logo appears with a blue line underneath - Blue line dissapears and the tablet reboots
Back into tablet and still on 4.3
I DO have Custom recovery - I DO have SuperSU and i DO have Busybox installed.
I had Foldermount installed but disabled that to see if it was causing issues. Seems not.
Any ideas of how i can OTA?
I think If you have played with the system folder files removed some of them or something like that mainly it will not install.. You'll need to flash the system folder with flashtool (you will lose root). Root it again then you might be able to update it OTA ..
But No... OTA doesn't always mean you will still be rooted.
So best way to update it and have a rooted system is to follow the guide by ryany67 in the tablet z android dev. section and start from the 10th step.
