Since one of my device didn't get its OTA yet can I safely use a manual install via cyanogen stock recovery? Does this process safely as OTA? I hear about some problems with the manual upgrade.

Hello, I have p5110, and I rooted my tablet, but after unrooted my tablet using this instructions : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747215
when I will receive an update via OTA, can I accept that, or my device may brick? Another question, if I use triangle remover with root, and then unrooted, can also I update via OTA?
In other words, how can return completely to stock state, including flashing counter?
My Sprint Galaxy S3 is rooted and I wanted to know if it is possible to download and install the OTA updates manually instead of removing the root. I understand that I can remove the root, update, then re-apply the root, but I was wondering if there is an easy way to do this.
I'm currently running the stock ROM.

Ok, I am running a stock rom rooted with no frozen apps. When the OTA tries to install it fails and when I try to use Kies the message " Your device does not support the update of Software via Kies" or something to that effect. I have never unlocked the bootloader, flash roms, or installed custom recovery on the device. Could I possible use OTA rootkeeper to unroot then check to see if the OTA will download and install? If that does work would I be able to restore the root? I don't guess I really need the new OTA but I want to be able to get JB when it comes out without any issues. Just as an added not it is currently running VRALG7...

Same happend to me. I had to unroot downgrade from the HD to G7 or G1. Then i could do the update to HE.
are they safe to install? ive never been able to get into recovery since i updated so will the OTA be able to boot into some form of stock recovery and install safely?
Hi I'm new to the nexus series. I have just tried to flash a cm11 rom and then back to stock. Now I cannot use OTA to get 4.4.2 update
Just manually flash it with whatever custom recovery you have installed or sideload it with adb.
Check out this guide. The method depends on what you want (100% stock? Just the update?...)
