You tried to update with root access, now you won't be able to update again. You should have unrooted before updating. Your phone is now registered as rooted and you won't be able to update your phone anymore, I think!

Hello XDAdevelopers
I am out of patients with the internet, I searched all over including this forum but found nothing that helped me (possible I saw the help I needed but was unsure if it pertained to me).
The situation I am faced with is that I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4, I opted for an international version (because of where I live). When I unboxed it to my surprise it came rooted (it is brand new fyi). Immediately after turning it on I saw that there was an update out for it, tried to get the update but I end up with a message saying (after saying registering device for 5 seconds) "Attention Processing Failed". I have combed through the forums to come to the conclusion that I can't update my device because it is rooted. I have tried to unroot my device though SuperSU and factory reset, but when I do this the device boots into the OS with rooted access.
So my question is how can I update my device to the official 4.4.2 (which at the moment is latest to my knowledge if there is a later version I would like to go to that instead). I don't mind losing any data and also I would like to re-root when I install 4.4.2 (given that after the process it is not rooted). Is there a way to go from rooted 4.2.2 to rooted 4.4.2?
Important information:
Model Number - GT-I9500
Android Version - 4.2.2 (stock rooted)
Baseband Version - I9500XXUAMDK
Build Number - JDQ39.F3A268.2JIA388 (That is what I see)
In status->Device status it says Custom
I do not live in America
Also if I need to install mods and other programs to my phone (or computer) please indicate because I am new to rooting Samsung devices. Lastly, think thing called cyanogen, I see that there are some very useful tools with it, would the end result of the procedure allow me to install this mod?
If more information is need, asked and I will provide it.
Hi,
You can likely install 4.4.2 manually with Odin. See this guide on that. You can also ask for help in this thread

Good luck!
Thank you. Thread closed.
So I rooted my device with Towelroot. I checked that it was rooted and I used my device for sometime and then I thought I really didnt need root so I unrooted my device through superuser. I used an app called root checker and it said that my device didnt have root permissions. So now I need OTA updates and it says that my device had been modified in an authorized way? Did I unroot it properly or is there another way to fix this or unroot my device. I am looking forward to your replies.
Thanks!
Hey guys, I tried unrooting my Note 3 (no specific carrier) via the SuperSU app (full unroot).
My device didn't reboot and when I tapped the SuperSU icon, the app did not open and an error message came up.
I then restarted my device manually, afterwards the SuperSU app was gone but the device was still in a custom state according to settings.
Also the software update was not possible, it also said the device was still modified.
I then tried installing the SuperSU app again, but now it says "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"
Please help guys, this is crap.
UPDATE: I made a complete reset and updated back to stock via Odin. Now it works fine and the status is back to official. Knox Warranty Void though^^ 0x1. Smooth!

Hi all i have a Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 a while ago I decided to root this phone to get some extra features.
Today, as I write this, I got an internal message popup saying there was a new update for this phone. great I thought glad samsung has a new update.
So i ran the installer but got a message, cant update device has been modified. understandable as I was rooted.
To try and get the update I decided to
1. remove root using KingRoot: update did not work.
2. reset back to factory settings: Update did not work.
3. came here to ask.
is there a way to fix the error relating to modified device on my ace 3 so i can get the latest official update.
thanks for any help you can give on this
