I seen in other thread you used Teenybin, that updated your partitions to 4.1.2 so you can flash anything you want.

Does that include OTA JB?

Restoring a nandroid doesn't update your partitions but if you are planning on flashing to a stock based JB (either Stock OTA JB, SlickJB, EG8, or SnowJB) then I believe you don't need the updated partition layout. Just flash away. One thing to note though, If you ever plan on flashing a AOSP 4.2.2 ROM or higher, you will need to use teenybin in the future. Also, always keep a spare ROM or nandroid you know works on your SD card. Just in case.
Edit: Unless you used a teenybin and then restored a nandroid. Then you should be okay no matter what.

If you get OTA notification you would need to be on 100% stock ICS or it will fail to install. Or you can use file in link with lgnpst, it is a zip but unpack it and it is a tot which you rename to bin.

Why not just wait a few hours after the update drops for one of our fine devs here to build a flashable/rooted version???

Just flash the stock recovery back to your tab, not sure if root will stay after the OTA though.

If all you did was root it and nothing else, you'll get the update. Chances are you'll loose root though.

That's correct. If you are rooted but still have the stock recovery you will be able to do the update (which I'm assuming will be OTA), but more than likely lose root. If you installed a custom recovery you'll need to revert back to stock.
Once you root and install custom rom then is it possible to go back to factory state?

Yes. Go to www.sammobile.com, download a stock firmware and flash via odin.

I forgot that that doesn't work for some reason. I'll try to find the stock ROM, if I can. The closest thing may be 2.3.6 though.

You can try it, but I'm not sure if it'll work. Unless you're asking me if you can flash 2.3.6, in which case, the answer is yes. In case something goes wrong, you may want to backup.j
Here is the stock U.S. - 2.3.5 ROM.

You should try booting to recovery and wipeing cache and data... You probably still got some jelly bean stuff foating around. Might want to flash a kernel too. Entrophy's daily driver if U.S; rj's if INT.
Any success because I'm in the same boat you are but just thinking about buying a new one. I feel like it's going to be extremely to complicated to fix.

Stock recovery for locked bootloader

New l9 (p769) user, I realized there's no point in having cwm if your on a locked bootloader ( can't unlock bootloader one bit, on v20D) and I'm just wondering if anyone had the stock recovery so I can flash the official ota? And no matter what I can't get fastboot to work which I understand has to do with bootloader. Thanks!

Cwm is very useful even if bootloader is locked. Why do you need stock recovery for? Just update ota? And fastboot works with lock bootloaders. If you have an issue just ask me.

It doesn't let me flash the ota? I've been trying and all it does is pretend to flash about halfway and reboots..

Okay, here we go:
1. CWM works with v20D or v20F. If you want to do OTA then you need to follow the link, that Lelus gave you, to the instructions to delete cwm from your phone.
2. If you want to flash the v20F rooted CWM backup that is on the sticky then all you have to do is download it to your sd card then get into cwm and flash the zip file.
3. I would suggest you get cwm working and backup your current ROM before you do anything just in case you run into trouble you can do the "etch-a-sketch" start over by reloading (flashing) your backup.
Good Luck!!!
Ok I deleted all remnants of cwm, renamed the file, and tried to apply the update, still no dice. Can I just restore one of the stock 20f roms stickied using cwm?

Stock unrooted 4.3 rom

I have an mdk rooted s4 meaning that I can flash roms and other stuff like that through a recovery like twrp. I was wondering if there was a flashable zip for the new update , mj7, that is safe to flash and is unrooted. Thanks
Not unless you want to lose custom recovery and lok'd bootloader. A 4.3 rom will come out soon.
