You could try EE4 take the EP4D ota then maybe the FP1H will pop up.

DO NOT accept the update with a rooted phone, if you must install the update "officially" you need to Odin back to stock unrooted, check the forums if you need help with that it is stickied.
Your other option is to get a CWM flashable version of the rom or just the radio here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560117
If you want to keep your phone rooted and just disable the annoying ota popup notification you can do this: http://www.chargeforums.com/forum/d...s-ota-update-very-easy-but-requires-root.html

Thanks !!
Thanks cliMAKtic !!!
This is the answer what I was looking for. By the way, should I use cwm to ugrade to FP1 radio? Can I use odin? I have EP4 Deodexed / Rooted on my phone, which was loaded by Odin.

Odin flashes .tar Odin packages
cwr flashes .zip files via recovery
You just use the right tool for the job.

This is true but it can be a little confusing since occasionally odin packages (md5.tar) are downloaded in zip files and need to be pulled out, but yes files flashed through CWM are in .zip format.
This is just the FP1 radio update (.zip format) I pulled it from the link above. Download the file, put it on your sd card, go into CWM, wipe cache and dalvik, go to mounts/storage, mount /system, go to install zip from sd card, install it, and thats it. Note that it takes a while to install so don't pull your battery thinking it froze, just let it finish.

Yep - the lightbulb lit last night, left wifi off, and awoke to the update notification. OTA <> wifi. Thanks.

Gapps won't install

Title speaks for itself. I reflashed AOKP because the kernel I was on was giving me SOD and I forgot to reinstall Gapps as well. So I went into recovery to install it and I get something about not being able to install with (bad). I downloaded gapps again and got the same result. Do I need to reinstall the recovery?

I'm using sk8's latest recovery version. If I switch to twrp how hard is it to switch back?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

y would u want to switch back lol? how often are u in recovery anyway to be honest. u only boot into it to flash a ROM. switch to it and see if that alleviates your issue.

I don't like Twrp that's why I would like to switch back. Lol

its broken... so switch. lol I don't see why u would switch back to something that can't correctly flash jellybean ROMs. Someone correct if I'm wrong but I do believe u need twrp to flash aosp based 4.2

How is it broken? And sk8's recovery can flash 4.2 roms correctly that was one of the first questions he was asked in his 4.2 compile thread.

This has been resolved in the Nibbles thread.
Recovery was not the problem. There's a bug in the installation process within Nibbles for the Base Install. Custom installation works fine. Check my thread for details.

1. Mobile odin, however I've personally never used it. There are probably guides out there somewhere how to return the phone to stock.
2. You may still be under samsung's warranty period, they don't care if your phone is rooted and will fix hardware problems. They will flash the most recent stock rom and firmware they have to your phone so you'd have to re root it.

I have not tried the mobile odin app (did not know it existed). I will try that and post back results in a little while. Thanks everyone

Its pretty straight forward. It does cost you a few bucks but its always nice to have and support a great developer.

I downloaded the 1.2gb file which was supposed to flash the stock ROM and lock the boot loader, but all it did was wipe my current ROM? Can anyone help me understand what I did wrong? Thanks again! I used the mobile Odin app and it all seemed OK ...md5 sum was good too

Thanks for your help I was able to get a usb connection enough and I used Odin on my laptop. The only problem I have now is that the custom unblock symbol appears when I boot up the phone. Any idea how to remove that now that root is gone? Ignore the following words...my phone won't let me edit them out. Thanks again.
Edit: it looks like the file I used was a 4.0.4 image. For return purposes is it fine if it's the older version? There should be no signs of root now. I'll keep checking for updates though

I would, if you have an ics rom they will be able to tell something is off. It should accept an OTA update. If you can odin again, use the vrblk3 image and accept the ota to vrbmb1. It may not be updating due to to the jump from ics to the most recent base. That will make sure you're completely back to stock, with a locked bootloader, and a stock recovery.

Camera Failing

So I've been looking for a fix w/ my problem and haven't come across anything that works.
I installed CM 10.1 6/30 nightly. Phone worked great...but then all of a sudden my phone has stopped working.
I Odin'd back to stock...but my camera is still failing. I'm back at MF1 now...but I'm just trying to find a fix to get my camera working again.
Anyone have any info that could possibly help me out?
