Software Question

So I have 2.2.1 and I was wondering is it possible just to update it to 2.3.2 without downloading a rom or rooting it? I like it the way it is. And is there also a way to recover the Inception file??

If this helped ckick thanks button
Just a heads up, if you're running the stock android browser you'll need to put back the two /system/app/browserproxy* files you had to move/rename. The 4.2.1 patch seems to update them, and for some reason I don't have to take them back out to keep using the stock browser (i'm using version browser version 4.2.1)...?
Does this remove root? And would flashing the update that popped up on my tab cause me to lose root?

I'm not sure if it was because of Voodoo OTA Root Keeper, or CMW6.x asking to keep root, but mine stayed, as did the custom recovery.

YES it does!
I had to reflash 4.2, as if I re root via Nexus Tool kit I lose custom cwm touch recovery.
Will leave this update until the removal of root is fixed.
Can I flash this trough twrp without losing root privileges

Flashed this with voodoo root keeper and all is good. Updated with root intact. Thanks guys!!

here's what you can do
-> flash stock ROM using Odin
-> wait for an ota if you're on stock (OTA update breaks root access)
-> go here http://www.wikihow.com/Unroot-Android
Experimental (not recommended)
-> delete Su binary using root explorer
U can try a factory reset it working for me
