How can I perform OTA update on rooted 4.4.2

Well as the title says is there any way to install the OTA update on my rooted Note 3 with leaked 4.4.2?
I have SuperSU pro installed and ticked the survival mode. Can I flash the update somehow or do I need to unroot it install the update and root it again?
Thanks in advance for your help

you will need to do it again,
flash official 4.4.2 with odin then re-root and install your custom recovery ect
Wait the unroot option on SuperSU pro does not work? I am already in the 4.4.2 leaked version, but I want to install the latest OTA update available.
Once rooted, no more OTA updates. End of the story

KNOX is all about KNOX app, and is not related to OTA / Firmware stuffs.

Just flash latest SuperSU.zip in twrp.
You can downgrade to kitkat by restore twrp KitKat backup or RUU.

Since i want to stay at lollipop, do i just flash the 2.8.6.0 twrp in this Q&A forum? Also, do i nid S-Off? Becauz my main reason to root is to install xposed framework and tweaking the cpu.

Yes and no need to s-off. While in S-On, you can't flash something like firmware. Read more here.
For install xposed on lollipop, you need to use files in this thread instead. Using normal version won't work and may get into boot loop.

One final qn, if after rooting and unlocking and theres an ota stock android update, do i juz remove xposed framework and it will update or do i nid to change back to stock recovery? Or maybe can you advice me on what to do?

Back to stock recovery and then you can update an ota. If you change some file in system partition (like platform.xml I don't know which file is caused), you can't update an ota. You need to back to stock system partition by flash RUU or stock file.

Is possible ota updates when device rooted?

I root my g930f. but i can'r receive ota updates. can i fix it?
Flash stock again with ODIN
can i use ota updates in rooted device?

Hi, are you still receiving OTA with rooted and Xposed installed?
It seems TWRP disables OTA
I don't mind stock recovery, just need Xposed and OTA
Also, Magisk is optional for me. Don't really need it now

You won't be able to apply OTA with root. If you perform system modification (like in this guide), you'll have to flash whole system.img before applying new OTA. With Magisk and systemless Xposed it's enough to restore stock boot from within the app to apply OTA.

Does This method still work on 2018 August security patch? Or Do I risk to brick the phone?

Magisk will have no effect on OTA updates. You only have to restore the stock recovery prior to taking the OTA update.
