Hello all I am using an ATT I717 unkocked on T-Mobile but it is on 2.3.6. I cant run OTA because it gives an error. Is there a way to OTA to the latest version or do I have to flash a rom??

What does the error message say?
Use kies on a pc.
You can only take OTA updates if your phone is stock.
Thank you guys for the responses but I flashed CM11 yesterday to bring it up to current. I don't know how or if I can close this thread.

Hello, is there a root method where it doesn't interfere with the bootloader, so you still get official update, but you can run root apps.

Rooting will not prevent at OTA update. This has been addressed, many times.
So you still get updates

how can I check and verify current ROM version on the phone? What is the stock ROM shipped with the phone. Is there a name for it? I've rooted my phone by using ROM Manager app. What I don't understand is under ROM Manager/Check For ROM updates tab, it says "Your ROM is not set up to receive OTA Updates. Please contact the ROM developer!
I'll jump the bridge if i didn't get the Froyo when it's available OTA. Please Help. Thanks.

I have a rooted GS3 (stock rom). My wife and kids all have unrooted phones and they are getting the update right now. I checked for an update and it never finds it so do I need to unroot to get the OTA update?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
You could try unrooting, but most of the time Kies does not recognise the device.
1)If you want to get the update the best way is to flash a stock 4.1.2 of your country and then update via kies.
OR
2)Just find the latest 4.1.2 (the update) for your country and flash it

Why are you posting in the i9300 forum?
and in the wrong section too
This is the Galaxy S3 general discussion section isn't it? What section should I be in?

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!!
Have you tried OTA yet?? Even being rooted???
Sent from my GT-I9205 using xda app-developers app

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?
