In that case, if you want it done the completely official way, then use Samsung Kies to connect your phone to PC and update firmware from there directly.

Ah right, there is no ota way of doing it?

I think there is something called kies air in the samsung apps folder that will let you do it over the air

You must be rooted to be able to Safestrap. I haven't gone through the Razr JB upgrade threads but I hope Rootkeeper works becuse I would not want to wait for a root method to be discovered.

To be on the safe side I would root then use OTA Rootkeeper, you may have to wait a while to get root and it will drive you crazy.

Did that on my tablet updating from ics to jb and install kept failing. Ill safely update then work on root myself. Rest assured all goes well and someone doesnt beat me too it i will be posting.

When using vodoo... does one have to simply click protect root and then update or is there more to it...
Sent from my DROID4 using xda app-developers app

To successfully maintain root and install the OTA do the following
Root Phone
Install VooDoo OTA RootKeeper
Update SuperUser binaries (from within the SU app
Open VooDoo and "Protect Root"
Then tap on "Temp Unroot"
Install OTA
Install VooDoo
Restore root

So... I forgot to do all this... I hope there is a root for jb coming soon still have su just no root...

[Q] Best method for updating official ics to official jb for n7000

We can update to official jb via OTA or kies or kies air.
But the question is what is the best method?
There are lots of guys believe that their problems with official jb is because of using bad methods while updating.
And What are the possible mistakes which can be done while updating to official jb?

Just update through kies , its the best method or OTA if you can , its from samsung and you wont run into any problem And wipe after installing JB (dont wipe on ics)

I have kies air but How can i get kies for pc?
(sorry for question. I dont have enough experience in updating androind.)
