I wasn't sure if that was root only but apparently it is. Thank you.

With the above method of Root. Can anyone confirm if you accept the latest OTA upgrade if you loose root. I am only rooted for the purpose of the bypassing of the hotspot provisions and the two audio fixes for listening to music. enabling APTX didn't help my Bluetooth streaming so I really don't care if that is lost.

Haven't heard if ota rootkeeper works, but ioroot16 works to root the 12b ota update.
