I rooted my Tab 2 7.0 using the methods here. Now how do I install the 4.0.4 upgrade form Samsung? I tried using VooDoo OTA to temporarily unroot but when the upgrade tried to boot it did not go to the stock install screen and the upgrade failed before it started.
if you root it, you won't be able to upgrade to 4.04

Thanks
Thanks. I think I will just leave it as it is on 4.0.3 as it is working.
4.04 is more smoother than 4.03, especially in Contacts app
other than that is pretty much same
After flashing the above file and installing the 4.0.4 upgrade is there a root path available to root my Tab 2 7 again?
For a person such as myself that doesn't do much flashing of files would you kindly explain what CWM is? I rooted my Tab 2 initially following instructions from this forum using Odin.
Thanks again for the assistance.
I have the AT&T Galaxy note 2 SGH-I317.
At boot the screen sits on the galaxy note 2 logo. I can get to download mode but can not get to recovery mode.
I had just updated to 4.3 and rooted (mistake) and I needed to unroot. I have tried to flash the stock rom but it just keeps doing the same thing. Also the stock was 4.1.2.
I already tried using TWRP via Odin but that did not do anything.
EDIT:
I did some research and found out that knox which comes with 4.3 does not allow downgrade which is what I was doing. So I now think that all I need is a 4.3 stock rom. any links?
So I was really excited to get the new 4.4.2 upgrade and I rooted it that same day. I am using Verizon Galaxy S3, sch i535, baseboard version ne1,
kernel 3.4.0 dated may 20,2014. Rooted using towel root. I can't reboot into recovery, my counter is still at 0 but I get the Verizon yellow triangle message about unauthorized software. I already had clockwork installed and supersu was set up with the binary installed. What am I missing? I have tried everything I can think of. Please Help

Bootloader is locked on 4.4.2, I don't believe it will be getting unlocked anytime soon unfortunately. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, been out of the s3 loop for a while.
You can NOT run any recoveries on towelroot! It's for rooting to debloat only.

I wouldn't suggest you tell someone to ODIN back to 4.3 from 4.4.2 if you haven't done this yourself. Can you confirm this is safe?
Seems like we have the same problem. Let me know if the Odin back to 4.3 then OTA is safe.

I couldn't Odin back to 4.3 from 4.4.2, as it gave me an error, don't think it's possible.
My phone Galaxy S6 DUOS (SM-G920FD) is rooted and using custom Arcedia Rom. If I flash Samfirware through ODIN, root will be gone or not? What will be the exact status of the phone after flashing? My OTA update will be back or not?
Hi i want to root my Note 4 SM-N910F but when i check the bootloader in the Odin mode it says that the bootloader version was SM-N916S, i guess that was the original ROM and for unblocking it someone installed other version of the system , but now i don't know how to root it. i was trying with Odin, but i was going to use CF-Auto root file for this version SM-N910F and i don't know if this is correct. will i be able to root my phone, wich file of CF-Auto root should i use???
