Hi, would like to ask...

I am currently on 4.1.1 rooted and samsung stock ROM. I have used triangle away to reset status but still labeled as modified and this will not get OTA updates for 4.1.2

How best can I get 4.1.2 updates when its released? I read about downloading samsung 4.1.2 tar file and update via Odin. Is this possible? If I do this, do I need to do a complete backup and then restore with Titanium backup OR flashing stock rom via Odin will not erase your existing app and data (much like OTA updates). Thanks

1. Best to do a backup.
2. I guess you want to retain your root, if yes,
    i. Buy Mobile Odin and load the tar file.
    ii. Wait for Rooted stock 4.1.2 tar file.

3. If you want to load stock, this will lost root
    i PC odin loh
    ii. use Kies loh (depending what country ROM you are now..)

Ok, assume I m willing to lose root, can you advise on the steps to take to update 4.1.2? Better to use PC Odin or Kies?

I guess I can use Kies to backup my stuff too, right ? Sorry for noob questions, still new to the rooting world
