[Q] Telus Samsung Galaxy S2X root and ota updates

---

I bought this phone unlocked and to my surprise it also came rooted. I was just wondering if when the phone is rooted, would I still be able to recieve and download ota updates or does telus block updates because of root?

Also, Ive seen all the topics on how to unroot, but I dont really know which method is the easiest. Can anyone recommend the easiest method from their point of view?

Thanks in advance!

Depends on how the phone was rooted. If it was rooted via some exploit without flashing the entire ROM, it's okay. Generally as long as you have stock ROM and stock recovery you will get OTA. But if it was rooted via flashing a new ROM, then no.

You can always flash back to everything stock anyways.

Ahh i see. Well.. I really don't know how the person who owned it before me rooted it and im a noob at flashing. But here are some details.

Baseband Version: T989DTLKJ3

Kernel: 2.6.35.11

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.TLKJ3

Everything looks like stock to me

I just checked out my stock, 2 week old s2x details and they match that of your phone. I dont think you should have anything to worry about.
