Root [Verizon] Uh oh! MF1 Update Forced on my Rooted Phone

[MasterCylinder]

Flashed VRALEC bootchain, TWRP and CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip and all seems well. :thumb:Will wait for the MF1 bootchain to become available.

Did run into something after installing TWRP: served up a notice that Super User credentials had been lost and asked if I would like to restore them. It asked the same thing after installing SU before rebooting. I didn't follow the suggestions but, who knows? Maybe it would've worked?

Edit: Also, the rooting guide does indicate that reinstalling the JB bootchain is optional but required to return partitions to original. Makes me wonder what's not right, if anything.

When I first rooted, I skipped that step...I didn't notice anything.
I had to unroot for an issue I had, then
I rooted a second time and did that step...didn't notice anything.

I used " CF-Auto-Root" to get root on my phone, before the MF1 killed it. Does any of what is discussed in this tread still apply to me? Thanks

Thanks Rxepert83. Do you know if freezing SDM 1.0 will keep my phone from receiving a pushed update?

Yes, freezing SDM 1.0 will prevent OTAs from even notifying you that there's one available let alone install. This should be in every root guide as MANDATORY if you are going to root and do not want an OTA breaking root.

Freezing SDM 1.0 worked on my S3.
