Most practical way of Unroot is to install new firmware for your phone.
pls open your phone on download mod and install original stok firmware.

4.0.4 OTA update for India

I have updated my note (ICS 4.0.3) to 4.0.4 by OTA. I got the software update message in the afternoon (02.35pm IST). I have attached some screenshots below showing the pop up play option in video player, update size (110mb), version information and signature unlock option. It took just about 20 minutes to download and install.

Thanks raghu....

Wrong section bro !
Please post this in the General Section.This is the themes and apps section and a ROM,you must agree, is definitely not an app !

Dear,
I am more interested to ask you for the battery life after update.???
Please share your battery life now...

Hi!
I found no observable difference yet, with my moderate use.

For me the ota update fail when it was installing for two times. I got the update yesterday and today but both of them failed. What should I do? My phone was rooted but I uprooted it before update and did a factory reset too. For me kies is so slow.

No OTA available but available via kies, upgrading now.....
EDIT- root is gone and all removed stock apps are back....

I was rooted and upgraded through kies, I do not think root actually makes any difference, all happened is that I lost root after updating via kies.
Also, I was on official stock ICS 4.0.3 updated through kies and OTA was not available.

Yes i updated.. Got back all removed inbuild apps and unrooted.
Can you tell how to root for this ve4sion

Flash any custom Kernel of your choice using odin and you will get root and recovery again, the root only method has been reported unsafe, so better you go with kernel way. For example you can find speedmod here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673072 , It will raise custom binary count and yellow triangle, it can be removed with triangle away app from chainfire.
Download kernel .tar file, select in PDA and flash.

Updated. Only icon change is visible. Yet to see any significant change in battery life. BTW I don't like the new Phone log. It's almost entirely grayish and colorless

Battery life seems better, 3-4 days experience. And you can use some modified contacts.apk if you dont like the stock one, I am using multi dpi contacts.apk (240-320 dpi)

I will always suggest everyone to download firmware from sammobile and then flash it via mobile odin pro as this will retain root. Basically while updating via kies it downloads same firmware as on sammobile, i mean its of same SIZE and after flashing through kies the downloaded firmware gets deleted from PC so better dwnld it from sammobile and have it 24x7 in our PC so no need to worry when something went wrong with phone.
BTW anyone is getting SECURITY POLICY RESTRICTS USE OF EXTERNAL SD CARD message while switching on phone?

+1 yes I m getting this on left side of status bar as soon as my phone boots up....any idea why this so??

having used this for a few days now, I have noticed a HUGE improvement in battery life

yes battery life has increased for sure plus the annoying handwriting tab next to the spacebar has gone, call list as everyone says has gone a bit bland but doesnt matter and the UI is lot more snappir than before, plus the design of the options tab everywhere has changed. all in all a nice improvement but then it might be me only who finds this to be nice as this is only my 2nd android and i dont know much

[Q] big problem

guys i have abig problem i root my s3 then i install 4.2.2 firmware then suddenly i see jewish things and apps and i tried to unroot it using unrooting apps but it doesn't work and when i go to status in setting it says my status is custom not modified please help i hate this strange thing

We don't have 4.2.2 firmware...?

ITs a very big problem. It sounds like you have fallen into a temporal anomaly. I suggest you hit warp 9.9 and slingshot back to our time frame , where stock is 4.1.2.
THen tell us what you installed to invoke the temporal anomaly and maybe we can help.

OK there isn't a 4.2.2 firmware available yet for this phone unless you have the international version of the device. If that's the case then you are in the wrong thread.

I used to feel sorry for those that flashed an international rom on the Verizon model of the s3 but after seeing all the threads from people doing it I just laugh now and wonder when they will learn to read the device titles.

He might have installed CM or AOKP. In any case b4 you start flashing ROMs on your phone you should know which carrier you are with and what is your phone model, there are 5-6 different models. Each carrier has his model plus the euro I-9300. Then flash the appropriate rom for the phone or carrier, also have backups of the stock ROMs for ODIN if anything like this happens again. And PLEASE read and read and read b4 you flash again.

Camera problems

My camera doesn't work on any rom. It opens then force closes saying "camera not connected" or "camera not working".
WHen i restore to my stock backup It works fine.
I've tried these roms in this order:
synergy
liquid
cm10
axis
all latest updates
I use TWRP 2.5
When i originally rooted i used ODIN and followed it to a T.
Like i said being stock my camera works. When i flash a rom it doesn't. Also i try reflashing, fix permisisions. no luck......... Seems to be the only thing not working too. Only problem is I have to have my camera!
Any help would be great!
Tony

I have the same problem and still haven't figure it out, tried all types of solution none have worked still "can not connect and failed "

But when you restore your stock backup your camera still works?

Did you flash anything from the new update? Or are the roms that you are on based on the new one?

When i rooted my phone... 2 days ago
I was only the latest samsung over the air update.
when i was done rooting I made sure everything works then did a back up so i can always revert.
When i flash any of the roms I just flash the latest available. If it requires gapps i use the one for the build it's for. 4.1 or 4.2
And like i said I'm on twrp 2.5
The fact that it works stock tells me it's software and maybe related to TWRP? but i can't figure out how.

The new update is the problem, it breaks the camera if your rom is based on the old firmware.

OK ,now I get to sound like a noob
So what now? I'm guessing flash a old Samsung stock then root? But how and where
I've been rooting and flashing different devices for awhile but never had issues'
I really appreciate all the help!

I'm not the best at explaining things. I just went back to my backup and stayed with that. My camera works fine now.
I'm sure someone will come to help and explain it better.

There is a custom firmware package that has the MD3 bootchain and the MB1 modem that will work across all roms. I'm at work now but I'll try to link it when I get off. It's somewhere in the BoneStock ROM thread if you feel like finding it yourself.

Seems to be an almost daily occurrence. Reading a new thread about the camera issue that has been documented and the solution posted time and time again.

Just updated the kernel to the new kt747 jb 4.2 june 8 2013 and the camera works.

Flash mb1 firmware, the modified file someone is talking about is simply the md3 modem with an mb1 tz. The md3 modem gives shotty data connection for most people and the mb1 radio will probably work better for you.
Just flash the mb1 firmware aio package, that should fix your problem.
Please try to search next time, this question has been answered everyday for a week, and this method works for almost everybody.

Also this rom its good http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507772 , but i prefer stock.

I've been running TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2503063 along with SEAL ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486388.
Noticed a considerable performance increase over other ROMs. Not having Touchwiz or any other Samsung apps is also a big bonus for me.

Just an FYI, these threads aren't allowed on xda.

The best rom is the one YOU like best. Flash and find out.
We all have different needs and tastes....its a silly question to ask others to decide what's best for you.

It is your tab so you have to do a little testing to find the one that you like the best.
IMO, S.E.A.L. with the blackhawk kernel and CWM works wonderful for me.

For some reason this device never got the attention that others did. As such all rooms are based off stock. Your best bet is to root it and install Titanium Backup. Then remove all the boatware with it.
I'm running Rocket Tab Rom on mine and have been happy with it.

Hi,
Is there anyway to flash this rom but to stay woth the same stock Theme?
The device is gonna be used with a non-tech person.

I see no real difference from stock. This is not like a Cyanogenmod build, it still has the look of Touch wiz. Mainly it just has the Samsung apps removed. I have noticed a great improvement in both performance and battery life with the Rocket Tab ROM.

My advice is until there's more options.....root, get titanium backup and freeze a crapload of bloat...especially all the Samsung stuff, greenify and battery and smoothness are as good as it gets I think.
