I want to root my Verizon GS3, so that I can stop the future update to 4.4, so that i don't lose my FoxFi. These 100+ pages is a bit overwhelming to read through.
I am on build number JSS15J.I535VRUCML1. Could someone please point me in the right direction?
I just want to root, and stop the update. Thanks.

Let me correct you first by saying that the update you're trying to stop is 4.3, NOT 4.4.
4.3 is Jellybean. 4.4 is KitKat, which has not been officially released for our phones.
If you want to root and disable the OTA update, all you need to do is disable the "SDM" app. It has a green logo, and is the OTA utility. You disable that, and your phone won't search for an update until you re-enable it.
No correction necessary. I already have 4.3, and FoxFi works fine on Jellybean. It will not however, work on KitKat or 4.4, which is why i want to disable the "future update" since it is all but confirmed that we will see KitKat on the S3.
With regards to disabling(force stopping) the SDM app, will it not restart itself each time i restart my phone? I thought I had seen a recommendation like that before, but it wasn't permanent. I apologize If i am incorrect in my understanding, and if that is all it takes to avoid OTA's, well then that's just awesome.

In the OP, or first post, is a link for saferoot. You can follow that guide to root your stock 4.3 phone. Once you have rooted, get titanium backup from the playstore and use it to freeze the apps SDM 1.0 and FWUpgrade. Done.

Does Foxfi only not work because they have not added support or is there something inherently wrong with 4.4.
I would wait until 4.4 OTA comes out before trying to worry about disabling it. You can then check if Foxfi works.

I think it's a great idea disabling updates, you can always re-enable at any time, then you wouldn't have to worry about them sneaking up on you.
Who knows, maybe the next update will block saferoot or safestrap access. Then you'd be happy you disabled the update in the first place.

Actually it is the FoxFi app itself that lets me know that it will not work on KitKat. They recommend not updating.
I may, in fact, wait another month or so to see if they figure out a solution, but I want to have my ducks in a row now so as not to be surprised. That, and I cant imagine what the update would bring that would make it even necessary.
Would have skipped the last update if it weren't for the ability to move apps to SD card.
Thanks for the suggestions, Ill go check out that thread, which has over 100 pages, and the the other thread it takes you to which has more than 20 pages.
I assume that when you say SafeRoot, landshark68, you are referring to the SafeStrap recovery on this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2605648
And that is considered rooting? And from there I can disable the Update app. Am I correct in this?
Edit> nevermind, I now see the link for Saferoot. which also has more than 100 pages.

I'm sorry if this has already been posted, I did try to find it, but how do I block the notifications for the latest OTA update? I'm tired of staving it off daily and eventually, I'm bound to accidentally install it. My phone is rooted, but no custom roms. Everything functions fine, so I'd rather not mess with an update and have to reroot. Plus, as I understand it, I'd lose the option to install a custom rom later on. Unless there is something I'm not understanding. Please advise. Thanks.

Yeah, so umm... that's not going to happen. I mean, ****, we can hope and dream and whatnot, but I seriously doubt it. They'd have to open up a new update
EDIT:
I meant to say, the new firmware would have to open up a new exploit somewhere, and since 4.4.2 doesn't have any known exploits for any other platforms, I don't think it'll happen for us either.

Moto X DE here
when we got the update, some who were rooted with slapmymoto were able to keep "root" when taking the OTA, however the update re-enabled write-protection which means most of what root is good for is lost.
Some people report that they can use xposed modules with soft-reboots, but if you do a hard reboot you will have to re-install the framework and soft-reboot to get it back working.
If you want root and currently have it, block the update. (unless you have unlocked the boot-loader when it was previously available from 3rd parties, then you can ignore this post)

Hey guys, I have a question about this update,
My friend has the S3 for whom I safe- rooted, debloated and whatnot. Now that this update came, my friend tried to update but to no avail. She is adamant about the fact that Verizon definitely has something important hidden in the update, despite me trying to tell her otherwise, and figured that she couldn't install the update because she was rooted.
Naturally, I fully unroot her entire phone, uninstall root-only apps, and try the update, but it doesn't work. When the phone reboots for installation, the installation bar loads for a bit,hangs, then just says "error" and does not update.
Anyone know what the problem could be? Normally I wouldn't care so much, but if Android 4.4 is actually coming to the S3 then I don't want her not to have it, and I can already tell it's not going to work if this update doesn't either.
Thank you so much in advance.

Some of the bloatware you removed likely had to be present on the phone in order for the update to take place. Unless you are sure someone is never going to go back to stock without flashing an ODIN tar image and wiping their phone clean, best to just freeze bloatware with Titanium Backup. That way you can just unfreeze it in order to go back to full stock. Unless you have a list of the bloatware you removed and can somehow sideload them back in, you will unfortunately have to flash her phone to full stock VRUCML1 and wipe it clean.

Ah, I see, next time I'm around her I'll re-root it and backup all her stuff with titanium backup, flash the VRUCML1 and factory reset, then restore everything and see if it works.
Strangely enough, when the same update for my Verizon Note 2 came out, I was able to update while rooted even though I unsinatalled theexact same system apps I did on her phone. How strange.
Nonetheless, thank you so much.
I have a question for you all. I took the OTA update for 4.3 when it came out but after that I rooted my gs3 Verizon phone again successfully. Now I also took this last update and now lost root on my phone. I tried to reroot the phone but it fails now. There error I get on safestrap is something about the addresses not being able to be found. Can anyone help me reroot my phone so my apps like titanium will work again?

It sounds like Verizon is up to their old tricks and preventing rollback by incrementing the bootloader again. Sadly you are stuck with no way to root if you can not flash back. All you can do is try submitting your info to the pingpong root thread and hope they can root it.

Not sure why you upgraded??
There is no root for the VZW version of the phone for that or newer versions now.
Pingpong will NEVER work again since its method of exploit was patched.
Most likey, another root method will come up but most likey will trip KNOX.
This is why they have been saying, DON'T UPGRADE OR TAKE A NEW OTA, but some people don't read or follow instructions. It is and has been on the pingpong root first post for some time.

Plus when the new version is rootable by a custom ROM you still won't be able to downgrade. That leaves the high possibility to loose root when something goes wrong and you have to Odin back to stock. Hopefully 5.1.x will be able to roll back, if not I won't upgrade.

This upgrade s!#t is exactly that, [email protected]#t!! Don't upgrade. If they're not letting us downgrade with this upgrade, they're surely not going to let us downgrade with 5.1.x.

Of course the upgrade wasn't good and why rooted users are not taking it.

Rule #1 is never ever take an OTA, just wait. I don't mean to throw salt on the wounds or anything but hopefully you'll save others from making the same mistake and I'm sure you won't make it again.
There's a lot of smart people working on this phone so don't give up hope just yet, you might catch a break. Heck, maybe a sock puppet will leak an unlocked bootloader like what happened with the S3. You never know.

It's not so much Samsung's fault, it's our damn carrier, Verizon that's making phone manipulating harder. I've had the S2, two S3's, and an S4, and I've never had issues with unlocking, rooting, abusing them until I switched to Verizon and got the S6. These damn OTA's are unnecessary.
Your so true
It's not even that, but the lack of control and uselessness of the updates frustrate me, and probably alot of other people. Verizon needs to step it up. I actually work for Verizon. And let me tell you. They are sneaky. So many people come in about bills being overpriced or something. It's awful. Anyways. I have great faith in out moddkng community and their will be a fix soon!

Yes
The various threads around here are quite helpful. If you're rooted, you're going to have to go back to stock. The OTA update should then kick in.
There's a thread over in the Android Development Section (It's at the top) that is exactly what you're looking for.
So, yes there are certainly methods by which you can update to 5.1.1!

This is a detailed tutorial on how to return your phone to stock. You'll end up with a data wipe, so make sure to back up anything you want to keep. You'll want to do this first. Nothing should go wrong (no guarantees though, as always), just make sure you pick up the H950 version of the system file (and put this in the root directory of your internal storage, and rename it to "system.img" if isn't already.)
Easy Restore/Recovery/Unbrick Tool for LG G Flex 2
You'll reboot to your bloated stock system, and you should be able to get the OTA update. If you come across the "Please wait 24 hours and try again" message, just go manually set your date and time ahead, that should get it working.
Then you'll want to use this link to update to flash a 5.1.1 (rooted) system file (similar to the way you did it before).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/development/root-easy-root-att-flex-2-5-1-1-t3178354
After a great deal of tediousness, you can install Titanium Backup and remove all of the bloatware. Obviously, be cautious, you might break things (and then you'll need to factory reset, yet again). In the near future I'll post a thread of all the bloatware I removed without any issue.
EDIT: I've created a freezable bloatware list for those of you unsure what's safe and what's not. The thread is here:
Ti Backup Bloatware Freeze List
Once you're done with that, if you're brave enough, you can install the XPosed framework (even though the bootloader is locked) using this link:
XPosed G Flex 2
The process is a bit sketchy, the extended periods of black screen are a bit foreboding, but it worked like a charm.
I am also in the same boat. Not receiving OTA, tried factory reset and date+1 doesn't work
Has anyone outside the US or AT&T network been able to update? Perhaps it works with a VPN? I haven't been able to update my brand new phone with zero modifications.
Im outside US, and i haven't got the OTA, i been trying changing the date and factory reset every now and then...
I will try a VPN and see how it goes.
Yes
When I returned to stock 5.0.1 I got the ATT OTA update. I'm in the US.
I don't claim to know the intricacies of flashing, but there are H950 5.1.1 system images floating around these boards. Could you flash one of those while on stock 5.0.1? I'm not sure. We do have an unbrick tool though so you'd probably be able to recover.
Let me know if anyone skips the part where they let the phone update itself, and go straight to flashing 5.1.1.
I just bought this phone brand new in the box because I heard the update was out on ATT, not for me I guess.
If you're already on 5.1.1 and you try to recover with the 5.0.1 image you will brick your phone.
As far as receiving the update notification on the AT&T version, I had to change the date forward a few days. I would check for updates after each date change and eventually got the notification. If that doesn't work, do a factory reset and try again.

Sounds like a direct flash upgrade is a no go then. I also set my device forward a few days (like a week) to get the update.
I Just ordered this phone and will be using it on cricket wireless, does anyone know if I'll need an active at&t sim card to get the 5.1.1 update or will I be able to get the update with my cricket wireless sim card?
Nope
Using a Straight Talk SIM myself and I got the OTA update just fine.

Yes, went from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1
I used the method above of changing the date a month forward.. It went from saying up to date to giving me the ota
I hope the update isn't crop because I don't know much of rooting and roming. Hoping to learn stuff here as xda is full of some smart folks.

No, you're fine. I think he just wanted the OTA file.

THANK YOU! after 7 painful days this solved my issue! you are awesome I never would have thought to take off auto time and date and jump forward. In one day increments it wouldnt grab the OTA. First time i went to september and boom, I got it. !
