[Q] Jelly Bean Official Update and root

So I rooted/unlocked bootloader etc..., but dragged my feet on installing custom ROM's. So i see that Rogers One X is getting an official Jelly Bean update. I am on AT&T so I would assume that the AT&T update is coming soon. Do I need to unroot so I don't risk bricking my phone or will the OTA update work anyway?

yeah man, you need to unroot, get back stock recovery and relock bootloader then use the correct RUU,.
it sounds like alot to do but it really is just a few fastboot commants and letting the RUU run its course, there is many guides but i think you are in the wrong forum, do you have the international one X or the dual core version?
if you have the dual core version then the correct guide for you will be here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538

Can you point me to a guide for this for the international HOX? I'm running into an issue with the last part, it fails when trying to update. Thanks!

Thanks for that info and yep in the wrong forum. Didn't realize the forums were specific to carrier. :0
thanks again,

Why not yakju?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD

it's simple... warranty reason

Huh? You get warranty if you are running a stock firmware and your bootloader is locked with Nexus devices. Just flash yakju and lock your bootloader. The only firmwares available for download are yakju and takju, others are distributed by Samsung and carriers, so you won't be able to get them easily.

Well I've found a 4.0.1 yakjuxw here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625700
There are a lot of yakjuxw's, though, it may not be for your phone.

well.. there was a full rom here somewhere of 4.0.1 which I immediately installed.. updated up to 4.2.2 so it's ok

Do I need to un root a stock rom to update my Sprint S3 for 4.3 rolling out

I have my phone rooted with this only. I used Odin and this file. CF-Auto-Root-d2spr-d2spr-sphl710.tar.md5
I do have super user and that's it. I was wondering with this new update rolling out from Sprint soon for 4.3. Will I need to un root or can I just update it and lose root.
If I have to un root can someone tell me the easiest. I'm new to this.
I have the Sprint SPH-L710

What I've read is that you have to be on stock ROM doesn't matter if it's rooted/non-rooted. But my suggestion is to wait because there is no coming back to an older version once you upgraded to 4.3. (I maybe wrong on the rooted part ) But it doesn't hurt to double check the threads

If this is new to you then just wait a week or so until someone makes a video tutorial on YouTube

Same boat as OP. Can anyone confirm if a rooted stock ROM can be updated to 4.3 without having to unroot?.

This might have more to do with custom firmware count...
Though I started messing with Android and Linux only 7 or so months ago.

I would recommend checking out "High on Android" video's at youtube, that guy got me started and I haven't looked back, he makes it easy for noobs like us.

Honestly I would go and read up on the general section. There is a ton of info over there. This has been discussed beyond end. The answer is yes you can be rooted but you have to be 100 percent stock! Meaning you have to have stock recovery and stock rom. Once you update to 4.3 OTA you will be stuck on stock for awhile! You will not be able to flash roms or kernels. PLEASE BEWARE! Cnexus has an entire thread explaining knox!

I would do what is recommended and wait..it's being worked on and we will be set free of the Knox Ness monster soon enough.

Looking for old twrp recovery

I want to flash an older sorcery ROM and had troubles. It was suggested I try flashing an older recovery but in the gooim app I can't see how to flash old recoveries. Ideas?

Which variant do you have? Toro? Maguro? Toroplus?

Go there, search for your variant. Should have multiple downloads available.
But you shouldn't need to install older recovery to install older ROM. I thought they were all backward compatible.(I've never fully tested it but I've flashed older ROMs using newer recovery versions so that's how I always thought it was)
Are you using NEWEST twrp?

There are certain people which found that when they revert their recovery to an older version, they can flash older 4.2 and 4.3 ROMs. I find it strange and thought recoveries are all backward compatible too. However, 4.4 recoveries work differently.

Yes I am on the latest. Thank you. I am Toro. I had a problem last month or two months ago installing the ROM and it was suggested that I downgrade my recovery. I am just getting around to that now. To be fair I haven't tried flashing since then but I guess I might as well give that a try first.

Which 4.3 ROM bricked your phone? Does the phone have a locked bootloader?

I am +1 on looking for original AT&T 4.3 ROM for ODIN.

The original 4.3 rom will be hard to find because AT&T only released 4.3 as a ota update, just like they did for the note 3 and s4.
If the bootloader is not locked, you could try flashing a stock 4.1.2 rom from sammobile.com. If it is locked, you'll have to keep looking.

Up

Can I extract 4.3 ROM from the device so it can be flashed to another one with 4.1?

Up for opinions

Does the phone with the 4.3 rom have a locked bootloader?

From what I remember 4.3 phone can be downgraded to 4.1 no problem

Up still looking
