I have galaxy s3 with frimware 4.1.2 with root device..and i want to update to jelly bean 4.3 offical android..and i use ota app..its say my device dont have permission..how can i update my phone?
Flash new firmware with odin or cwm, ota doesn't work on modified phones.
Apparently kies will still update it, but I've never used it myself.
Or flash your original saved firmware and get OTA.

Hey, rooted my SG2 and was wondering when a new android version is available to update through kies will I be able to update ?? or will I have to revert back to the original kernal. Thanks
IIRC, Kies won't update your phone if the kernel has been change
Suck it and see or update via ODIN .

Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 on the three network. If I flash the H3G 2.3.3 firmware to the device using Odin will the OTAs still work? If not is there a way to flash the standard firmware back and have the updates working as normal?
Thanks
If you flash stock firmware for your region, you should be able to get updates OTA again. In saying that, I've seen more than a few cases where this hasn't been the case (Why ? No idea. Never happened to me/not important to me as I don't use stock firmware so I've never delved into the why).
So you can flash stock firmware, see if you can get OTA updates.
If not, might as well take the easy course & flash your stock firmware updates via Odin (like many people) rather than spend potentially who knows how much time trying to find out why OTA won't work in spite of you going back to stock
It works for kies and OTA
I downloaded the original 2.3.3 and flashed it to my Samsung Galaxy S2 and the OTA updates worked up to firmware 2.3.5 and then I plugged into kies and it updated to 4.0.3. I used this site http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9100&r=-1#modelsa
Thanks for the help guys.
Hi I'm wondering if anyone can help?. I have a samsung s3 19300 on three mobile uk and a friend flashed my phone for me to get a leaked version of the jelly bean update. I have since read that three mobile have released the official jelly bean update but I haven't received a ota update or can't update through kies due to them not letting you when you flash. My main question is even though I have a leaked version should I still be able to get the ota update come through?
Any help really appreciated

NO OTA.
Try update via Kies if not you will need to flash via ODIN .

You need to flash back to stock h3g ics then use kies to get the update. Remember to download stock three firmware.
Did he install a custom kernel when he installed the leak?

Alright so i recently got a Galaxy S3 and rooted and flashed a leaked jellybean ROM onto it. Now that the official jelly bean has come out i want to update but i cant because kies says "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies". so next i tried FOTA but that didnt work either: it said "Your device has been modified, software updates are not supported".
And of course i downloaded triangle away and that didnt work, ive tried flashing the official jelly bean update but it didnt boot so i was forced to restore from my modded backup. And ive re-installed kies twice.
any help would be appreciated.
my device is Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300T with vodafone australia currently running the DLH9 hawkish premium light ROM.
Cheers.

I would think your best bet would be to go back to the Galaxy S3 ICS stock rom and then use Kies to update it from there. A lot of the official updates will refuse to do anything if /system has been messed with.
Hello,
I have a international galaxy s3, which after getting repaired by a local shop, they put in a 'KOR' version of the software. So I need to revert back to my official country's software because it wont let me upgrade past 4.0.4 because of different CSC . I downloaded the official software and will flash through odin.
I wanted to ask, if someone would kindly tell me, that if I flash the official samsung software 4.1.2 for my country onto my phone, the binary count increases yes, but will my status of my phone be modified or it will be official? Like will I be able to upgrade OTA or kies or I am stuck with Odin flashing?
I am on a non rooted 4.0.4 software with binary count 2 if that matters.
The attachment shows the error kies gives me. I know what to flash on my phone. I just need to know if my status will be modified or not because currently its not
Thank you!
you'll be able to update OTA as long as you're not rooted
