I believe that it tells you how in the root thread.

I just got my new refurb TB with 1.13.605.7 already installed, is it possible to root without downgrading?
Wrong section my friend and the downgrade is a necessity. If want to discuss further please move to q&a ;-)

As in a permanent S-off root? No. I'm not even sure this question belongs here. I know its been answered repeatedly in other threads.
Sorry for posting in the wrong section.

Atleast you know for next time and now you're question has been answered. Try the root thread as well, lots of help there.
I think I may have bricked my note 2. Please help
your post explains nothing about what you did/what state its in now
therefore that is how much help you will get ...nothing
What is it doing. If you can get into download mode do so and flash revision 3 and unlock again

You are going to cause my insurance to go up. Don't ever flash anything again.

I bought this a while ago, so I flashed the latest recovery for the Note 2 on CWM, but when I go into recovery, it still goes into the stock recovery. Not sure why. Phone is rooted but the bootloader is not unlocked. Any help would be appreciated, as I've tried just about everything.
You have to be unlocked to install any custom recovery. Please read.
You are lucky you didn't brick.

Sorry if it's being asked a lot. I was flashing ROMs last night and I wasn't in the most stable of mind set. Anyway I wake up to a text from my buddy about this update. I remember doing a Samsung update but not an ota and it never went to download mode. How can I tell if I updated it?
I keep seeing VRUAME7 as the new update but this is my current about info and my build is obviously a different rom but my baseband isn't what I see as the before and after screenshot and I just checked my phone with a root checker and it passed. Sorry for being a noob but I came from a gnex! Can anyone give me an idea how to check if I did or if I'm fine?
Sorry I meant to post this in help / q&a not general sorry please move it!!

You're running a custom ROM (CleanROM), so you don't have the update. You do not want to flash the update since it kills root access and prevents the bootloader workaround. This is discussed in nearly every thread in the forum right now.

Yeah I know I don't want the update (not being a ****) just wanted to make sure that somehow I did update to it. I don't plan on updating. Thank you for the info. I was scared for a second. Thank you.

If you updated you wouldn't have a Root and I don't think you'd have a custom ROM.

The update fails if you have a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM), which is needed to flash roms. So as long as you have a custom recovery the update can't go through

Thank you. Thanks everyone. I was used to nexus prior to this so I wasn't sure. Thanks for all the answers. I have root, still on CleanRom, build/radio didn't change and can access recovery. Thanks again and sorry that this is in the wrong section.

No problem. I came from the Gnex too and there is definitely a little bit of a learning curve with the S4 modding scene compared to the Gnex. Questions are the only way we learn!

Yes. Especially since I don't fully understand this auto Loki (I understand it flashes a pre release kernel that is insecure hence how I rooted the phone via Odin and motochopper in the first pkace), that and with the boot loader still being locked or at least not unlocked and being bypassed I wasn't 100% positive. Now can I flash the new modem.bin from the update via Odin without messing anything up? From this thread:

I accidentally hit the update now button that's been nagging for the last two weeks. I immediately pulled the battery. However every time I boot it tries to go to recovery mode to install the update. Is there any way to cancel the pending update before it installs or am I screwed?
Boot to odin mode and flash stock mdk. Thats all I would think u could do. Hope it helps.

Works.
I flashed this, and avoided even having to wipe (it's a special no-wipe stock build)
