I got the notification today that the 4.2.2 update was ready to be downloaded and installed on my 16gb WiFi XTZ. I downloaded it and when I attempted to install it it would reboot into the android update screen (Android guy with the roatating "sphere" thing) and the status bar would move to maybe the 9-10% area and then the tablet would reboot. When it turned on it would say there was an error installing. I tried twice with being rooted, then I temporarily unrooted with voodoo ota root keeper and tried it twice more with no success. Any advice? And no I don't want to use the PC companion because I'll lose root.

Did you edit any file in the system folder?
I had this issue today.. And after replacing the files I edited with the original once.
The update succeeded.
Would any of the xposed framework mods cause this?

Possibly, you could try deactivating them and uninstalling them and then uninstalling the framework, just remember to start uninstalling the framework in the Xposed app.

That's your problem.
OTA will not work if the /system partition has been modified. Restore ALL bloatware and fonts then OTA will work.
Alternatively, re-flash a stock .370 firmware for your region, re-root, then OTA.
Ok thanks i wanna try

How to re-flash stock? Some tutorial? I only uninstall Chrome y think.

Yea, it removed any custom multiwindow apps you had via MultiWindow Manager as well.
One thing I've noticed is the 'Birthday' card template in S-Note. Definitely wasn't there before.
I just flashed my n8013 to the latest, with mobile odin. I still have root & all my apps & settings.
I found the firmware update here. http://www.hotfile.com/dl/198751350/93e64ff/N8013UEUCMB3_N8013XARCMB3_XAR.zip.html

N8013 Update
Does anyone know why Samsung would offer an update that was the same exact # 4.1.2?
Also no way to OTA except that it was busy, will update in order received and to check back later?
Nothing about it on its site and only allows it to occur via Kies. Or am I just use to how Verizon and ASUS roles out an OTA
And yet no discussion about it here!
norm883
I updated via kies.
The Build number changed in the end. Instead of A3, it became B3.
The birthday template has been there.
Only difference I see is when you highlight the url in the default browser, it's a darker blue.
I compared mine with my friend's note who hasn't updated yet.
Edit* You now have an "export" option in the drop down menu on the home page of s note. It was only "import" before.
Edit** When you pinch the home screen to add more home screens, the background is now blue and not transparent.

Unrooting using Framaroot, or use OTA Rootkeeper. Either way works, but be sure to reboot after unrooting. Otherwise you will just get the same error message about the system being modified. Also, if there any any bloat apps frozen or uninstalled, you will have to undo that (in addition to unroot) for the system to come up as not being modified.
This is a rather stupid move on Samsung's part.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda app-developers app
Kies will still work for the update though, even modified, at least for me. I did however set Kies up with it stock & then selected the "Auto download updates" feature in Tools / firmware upgrade settings, so if there is an update, whenever I plug the N8 into my laptop, it tells me an update is available & then gives me the option to install it now or wait.
Even stranger though is that even modified, I can select to reprovision & install factory firmware (Upgrade & Initialization) on the Note 8, but now on the Note 10.1 once it says "modified" status, you lose the ability to provision & reset with Kies & you get the "N8013 does not support initialization" error, even though both are now running the MD3 firmware. Go figure.
Framaroot from the play store works to temporary unroot for purposes of updates. Just install it abd choose the option to temporarily unroot, then reboot and check for updates. It will download and install the update. I recommend another reboot when its finished. Then load up framaroot and restore root. All in all with a fast internet connection the whole process may take 10 minutes.

I then even tried uninstalling everything and doing a factory reset and im still not able to check for updates. Any idea how to get my device back to the way it was out the box so i can check for updates?

Can you just hide root using Chainfire SuperSU?

No. The new boot loader checks the system partition for changes. So if you even have the SU binary or any other modified or new files in the System folder or any subfolder, it will not work for updates.
On other devices, like the Note 10.1, you have to revert to an older boot.img to be able to keep the status as unchanged. Unfortunately, that doesn't exist for the Note 8 as far as I know.
I have modified my multiwindow to work with all apps. When I used rootkeeper I was still able to update so I giess it works with some mods but not all.

I bought my Note 8 on June 11th and it received an immediate update. I rooted with Framaroot and a few days later I received another OTA update. But now, after that, it says it can't update and I can't get it to unroot...
Looks like the update is rolling out. Guessing this should not break the root exploit for non dev editions correct? If one is currently rooted, they would have to return 100% to stock so stock recovery is there for the OTA update to successfully install. And then re-root?

Shouldn't matter. The update doesn't come from YOUR provider, the device's ROM is designed so that it pulls from Rogers' servers. When Rogers releases the update, you'll get it.
