ok, so if we root with odin, mean i will lost the root and back to stock, if i stayed with the new flashed update, next time i can receive update over ota? am i correct?
*
can i suggest to put the procedure of upgrading stock firmware using odin on rooted stock firmwares. coz my issue (and maybe many like me) is i know how to root, but when a new firmware comes, i panic, dono what to do. and the first page is silent on that too,

you flash stock above it, root will be lost
and flash root back above updated stock you got root again

you flash stock above rooted stock, your data not lost?

Meaning that once I have rooted already, forever it will not support updating via KIES? If that's the case, then my journey of discovery will stop here then. tongue.gif

Time to start playing with custom ROMS. Want to try Wanna 1.7 already. biggrin.gif

may i know the answer to this question too. so once i root my stock firmware, KIES can't be used anymore for future upgrades (i am talking stock firmware upgrades)?

i am not interested to use custom firmwares. i just want my stock firmware rooted that's all

thanks for the usual prompt answer

p.s. this should put on the first page. non geeks like me rooting their phones will always come across this problem.

they give me a free sp when i first bought the phone. i got cover already so i think i don't need an sp. can i just cabut keluar? tell me does the sp does any justice to the display? or it make the display worst? (i can't compare)

i just rooted my s3 successfully. panic a little the first time not rooted although the process run. then i did again it manage to root. why must do 2 times (as in press the "Start" button twice in odin)?

anyway, i did a TB backup.
and i check my root functionality in Cerberus - checked. can do more now, can even turn on the gps remotely.

so what other things can do on rooted phones? can someone just give me a top 3 list. thanks in advanace.
