I did a similar update with the LK7 OTA update. I was stock rooted with all status at normal and flash counter at zero. I installed Voodoo OTA RootKeeper (v2.0.3) and ran it to get a protected copy su binary. Then let the phone flash the OTA update and reboot. I too still had SuperuserSU and appeared to be rooted, but when I tried to launch Titanium it couldn't get permission. I had to open RootKeeper and re-apply the protecyed copy of root, then everything was fine.
So if you had done the option 4 free unlock is it not unlocked now?...noticed T-mo N2 didn't have that option the other day

Stock. Just rooted to get rid of bloatware. Rooted using the exynos abuse exploit and then unrooted with it. Stock.
So you do not have the original at and t apps/files that came with the phone? I have read that if certain apps are not detected during an update that the update will fail. I don't know which apps that might be. If you are stuck on getting the OTA to work on a stock rom, then maybe a complete wipe and reset might work as well as replacing the stock rom completely.
I'm no expert for sure on this so hopefully you will get an answer that is easier to perform

Your correct also that applies if you have modified the stock files in anyway (replaced them). Any official OTA checks the SHA-1 hash tags (similar to MD5 hash tag) within almost every file under the root partition (/system, /recovery, etc...). And all must match the expected SHA-1 hash or you will get Error 7 which looks like this.
I would try restoring these files by a nandroid or Titanium if you did. You can read more about this HERE
I had uninstalled 12 to 14 att bloatware apps and backed them up with Titanium Backup. I rerooted and reinstalled them all (ouch) and then unrooted. I will try the update again tomorrow. Anyone have the update file to update manually?
Yes i do, HERE put it under the /cache and flash the update with the stock recovery (or custom recovery). Good luck i've been through this once (successfully) and i don't plan on doing so again. Let me know if there's any other way i can help.
THANK YOU! Done in 3 minutes! Restoring everything from Kies right now. I appreciate your help!!!
