I found an app called OTA RootKeeper, and I would like to know if anyone on the SkyRocket has tried it yet and been successful.
I am on 2.3.6 and would like to get the OTA to ICS without reroot or anything. I did search but couldn't seem to find anything.
Thanks!

It might, that's the best you can hope for. Any of the root keepers out there only might work. There's no guarantee on any of them (SuperSU Pro has the same feature, but Chains says there's no guarantee that it will work)

So one can hope this works!
Thank you!

I can't seem to find it. Is there an update zip somewhere I can just update of the original update with CWM?
On another point I did let my phone download the update before and copied it from the fota folder but it did not update. Kept saying something was not matching what it was supposed to be?

You can download XSG1.apk and try side loading it. https://www.box.com/s/hfysx1jg5faoaugoec1s
Same with zite http://androidsight.com/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=1032
Not sure if it works or not but sometimes you can get lucky.
Thank you so much

This is why I root my device... I can grab these apk files from my data file to try out later. Had a few apps go missing from the app store and this was the only way to get it...
Most apps are compatible but you will find the occasional one that isn't....
Was just notified about an hour ago, mobile is ready for new firmware update.
Should I update, or leave as is?

I live in the caribbean, and I got the update the day it came out :L that's funny cause the Caribbean is right below North America, well I used PC companion.
Can actually update via mobile. Since I have ripped through twenty GB shared data, will have to find wifi hotspot to update.
Just worried about all the major troubles this update has caused, that is why I am hesitant to update, and asking advice.
Thank you.

Updated mobile. WiFi software horrible; strong signal is now weak. Had uninstall updares for Google apps. And apps on microSD no longer show up on homescreen upon bootup.
And SONY no support is just that; rwcommend you download software from computer, not OTA. Bull****.

Got the same thing just 5 minutes ago.. installed it.. anybody have a changelog?
Here's the full changelog from Samsung's site:
Android 4.3 OS upgrade
Samsung Galaxy Gear compatibility
Group Play 2.5
Samsung Apps
Knox
Drag and drop to uninstall or disable applications
Call reliability improvements
The new update is build number 1337UCUEMK2 – the last one was 1337UCUEMJ9. So Samsung had to change something, but the very short turnaround time indicates it wasn't anything major (some users reported keyboard issues on MJ9). The update is pretty hefty at 719MB if you're coming from the Android 4.2 software. There is also a patch from MJ9 to MK2 for people who got the last OTA that clocks in at just 28.07MB. Begin hammering the update button – no promises, though.

Any way to keep root and safestrap?
Wow! This is so new! It's not like it hasn't been discussed for days already!

Those of us on MF3 who rooted cannot accept the OTA correct? WE would have to unroot first?
I can say this. It was no ordinary update even though coming from the mj9 one it was only 28.07mb's. It did something to the phone to finally take away the lag. I think Samsung finally got the phone working right. I'm pretty happy with my s4 now.

So I came from an rooted MF3 install, but I have done a factory reset to try and get the update. Even now, I can't seem to get a response from hitting the "Software Update" button. Does anyone have any suggestions? Confused as to why I can't get it to report to me...
You need to use this thread for 4.3

You don't expect people to actually read before they post do you? I mean, it's only common sense and the XDA rules. Why would most of these people do something smart like that? 90% of the threads are from people that either didn't or can't read.

Or
You can side load the mj9 update and hit software update in settings.

Me too. Even when I take a picture with the galaxy gear, they show almost instantly on my GS4 gallery.
Also, bluetooth is like "smart".
I was having problems connecting my cars bluetooth to my GS4 and at the same time to my gear and each device to know what I needed it for, and now they now somehow.

root?
Can we root if we updated to 4.3 mk2?
I still keep getting software update interrupted, going to have to use other means to upgrade I guess.

This new update seems to have fixed the messaging app, before it was all messed up on the first 4.3 update.
Also another thing that seems fixed is the developer options, I would turn off all animations but it wouldn't stick as they would turn back on on their own.
