Help Updating to Lollipop through Kies?

[Bodycount]

You'll need to unroot before you update.

I unrooted using supersu. Rebooted the phone. Tested root access by opening titanium backup which it did say I wasn't rooted. Then proceeded to open Kies and update but it's still saying I have the latest update.

@Nagrom Flash the correct CF rooting file then TWRP 2.8 recovery, using Odin V3.07, job done.

Just to confirm. I assume the 2.8/4.4 file is the correct one for Lollipop?

Yes, they are correct, but you won't get any further updates (as was always the case) either OTA (Over The Air) or via Kies 3, if you flash any custom recovery such as 2.8 TWRP. So if Lollipop 5.x.x or whatever becomes available (unlikely,although small "bug fix" updates are possible, we've had our two major updates now: Jellybean to Kitkat and KitKat to Lollipop), you would have to go through the rigmarole of flashing it manually again.

Expected that.
Flashed the recovery last night. Liking it allot.

Just waiting for a full release of xposed now.

Thanks
