You can try. Some people have reported success in updating the PC Suite software without loosing root. Worst case, you'll loose root and have to redo it.
Some people get this errors. Like js931, I had no problems applying OTAs with root, I went from v10b to v10g without loosing root. Yesterday I applied v10j with a manual flash via kdz file, lost root but just re-rooted with purpledrake.
In that case, just do the Upgrade Repair Errors option in PC Suite. It'll flash the latest ROM for your IMEI, but you'll loose root. Just reroot afterwards.
I updated via ota when i was rooted and had no problems, also didnt lost root.

v10b is indeed a battery drainer, and the phone was too hot doing nothing. v10g was better but kinda laggy. v10j seems to work great, its smoth, doesn't drain much battery and the heat is normal. For now is the best choice, the oly downside is that it comes with a lot of bloatware compared to my stock v10b that was pretty clean.
I have just flashed 10H and it started dowloading 103 bloat apps automatically i never had before, wil test this firmware for couple of days if it wont perform well then i will switch to 10J
Yeah, a lot of bloatware. I just froze most of them for now and will remove completely if I see no problems.
I did this and i was getting "update error" plaaplaaplaa.. Now my device is bricked. I tried what PC Suite said "Take off battery and put again and connect with usb" but always when i open device it's goes do "updating firmware" but it's isn't doing anything. I was with rooted v10g rom (international 16gb D855). Let's see what service shops says.
