[Q] cannot update my galaxy note rooted

i rooted my galaxy note,
now when i go to software update
it doesnt update it
it doesnt even opens
like it used to give an error that no updates available before i rrooted it..
helppp

what rom are you using?

its stock rom.. inbuilt that i got with my cell

As far as I ma aware, if you updated a rooted device you will lose root. Your best bet is to find the stock ROM you want (and that may take a bit of searching) and flash it manually.

[Q] OTA for rooted phone

Hi I have the Czech version - KK5 firmware.
Today, on my phone I got a notification saying there's an update (about 70mb).
I downloaded it and tried to install it but when it rebooted, it said it was unsuccessful and that I should try with Kies again on PC companioin.
Now, is this because I rooted my phone? I currently have the original firmware rooted with CWM.
And I don't want to lose the root.
So should I go ahead and connect it to the computer and go through Kies?
Is there any other reason for my OTA update not working?
Thanks!

You can flash firmware with CWM and MobileOdinPro and keep root and CWM, read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784.
Download your firmware from Sammobile.com, unzip it and place it on your external sd-card and flash it.
You can not update officially through Kies/Fota when you have custom rom/kernel or root privileges afaik

Or just grab the stock Czech one from this thread (or any other stock, it ll be fine)

I have the stock czech that's on the site, but the new update came out today so i don't see the update in that link
can I just update to any other latest stock firmwares there?

Yes you can, I jumped between different stocks, from different countries (my main is United Arab Emirates), used Turkish and German with no issues so dont worry, just use Mobile Odin Pro (with everroot on) or CWM to retain the root , refer to the the previously posted link by Myamo for the CWM method (i would recommend mobile odin pro though, much easier and lazier well worth the money ^^)

Installing OTA-file

Hello,
I'm from the netherlands, and i am using the original 4.0.3 firmware (XEN). But since a few days there's on SamMobile a OTA file wit 4.0.4 firmware, and Samsung don't giving a update on KIES, and SamMobile don't having a ODIN file.
Is there someone who can tell me how to install a OTA file?
I have just the originale stock firmware 4.0.3 XEN and my phone is NOT rooted....
Just sorry if my english is not so good.
Gr, Marco

Dont think so, found anything on Google about that?

Hey listen Marco,
there are no procedure to install an Over the Air *OTA update as the word itself... the update is being push by your carrier to your phone...wirelessly. No user intervention itself. As long as your data connection /3G/4G is ON, then this push notification is being sent to your phone for the firmware upgrade. You need to skip on that OTA update as there's nothing much you can do about that.
Now what you can do is first, SEARCH, READ & LEARN most of the posts here in XDA. There are tons and tons of stuffs here in XDA alone that would guide you on how to upgrade your phone to the latest ICS firmware.
And by the way.. Kies is a proprietary sync software by Samsung. Kies (Air) you said is the one on your phone which doesn't mean at all really. What you need to do is download the PC version of Kies, install it on your computer. Sync your phone after and your phone would be upgraded... that's all you need to do.
You mentioned about ODIN... PC Odin is not in any way a software made by Samsung. Again, if you do a Search here in XDA, there are some threads who will give you a link on where you can download the latest PC Odin for you vis-a-vis, to upgrade also your firmware to the latest ICS ROM.
Sammobile is a website where you can download the latest firmware for you to use later on with PC Odin (once it's already installed on your computer.)
So, Marc... Take one stride at a time bud... what you need to learn (before going to stuffs about upgrading and rooting) is to READ and READ and LEARN your way around... the 'Search' button at the top right on this site is an indispensable tool as well for you to look for words that you like to look for.
Hope you find and muster it all bud and Good luck!

GT-N7000_DBT_6010720 OTA update for XXLRQ

Sammobile shows this file as an OTA update for XXLRQ. But the problem is cannot flash it in any manner, PC Odin wont help and neither does advanced recovery.
Any idea guys?

are you on latest version prior to LRQ on DBT rom?
Usually updates are ota send by steps.
Also not sure but other preconditions could apply, like csc, all components same stock rom.
Just some thoughts, havent flashed an ota myself yet with mobile odin, you can also check mobile odin thread for how tos

[Q] N7000XXLPT update via OTA impossible

Hello everybody; I have a Galaxy Note N7000 with android 4.0.3 with the following characteristics:
- PDA:LPY / Phone: LPT / CSC: LP5 (PHE) (unbranded from spain) and band version is N7000XXLPT
Two days ago i checked if there is an update via OTA and i have found a new one with a download of 549.02 MB. I accepted the install and after the rebooting it says that there is an error and advised me to update it with Kies. But in Kies there isn't any proposed update.
I tried twice without success. What should i do ?
Thanks an advance.

if your phone is rooted and has a custom recovery then it wont install the OTA

No isn't rooted and have never been rooted before

in that case download the latest rom from samfirmware.com and flash it using Odin if you want to update.

My question. Why i'm in this situation? Usually when there is an update it occurs in Kies and OTA in the same time, or only on Kies but never in OTA only

recent update may be. not yet released for kies. should be there in couple of days

Thank you so much

always on OTA and nothing in Kies for a week now !!!
is it normal?

I can not update via ota too.
My note has an official 4.0.3 android.
Don't u think that maybe a software (for example my avast anti virus) prevent my note to update?
Should i factory reset?

As per Sammobile.com your firmware for PHE is not updated to JB.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-N7000&pcode=PHE#firmware
There is no JB update for Spain yet. If you really want JB I suggest use Germany LT4 and flash it using ODIN. Or
Try this:

Not completely true: the new XXLT5 from today has PHE as CSC for Spain and as default CSC Portugal (TPH).

I confirm, finally the update on Kies is online.
I'm updating now my Note.
However i don't know if it's a good one.
According to Samobile the version is PDA: N7000XXLSZ CSC: N7000XXLS4 Is it the good one like German?

It don't want to update nor in OTA nor in Kies. Should i reset my phone?

No Idea ?

Hi, i finally successfully updated my N7000 to JB 4.1.2
I used ODIN 3.07 and downloaded from sammobile the new firmware of my region.
Updating took about 25 minutes. It's not hard at all and all my data are there after rebooting.

Hello, it's from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
1- you enter the reference of the phone model, in our case it's N7000
2- According to the region of your phone firmware you should choose the exact firmware (be careful when choosing, it's very important)
