jelly bean to omega rom

Hello I'm new here!
I had unrooted ICS and then later on upgraded it to Jellybean 4.1.1
Would my phone still be rooted? or has it gone back to its normal state but to jellybean?
Can i install Omega over Jellybean?
New to all this so not sure about all this.
As far as i know, omega jb rom is pre rooted, I installed it and it seems rooted already....... go and have a look at the omega forum!
Go into recovery and see if you have CWM installed.
If you have, you should be rooted and can flash Omega.

Cwm and root are 2 separate things..root is related to kernel and cwm is a recovery..if you have cwm you can flash omega..but as omega rom is pre rooted you will get root as well

I guess (nearly) nobody got the ota update yet. Wait until you get it or you could install the zip (when it's uploaded) via adb sideload

you can update to android 4.3 manually
Head to the google developers page https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occam and download version 4.3
Searching works wonders.

[Q] Flash 4.3 based rom over 4.2.2?

I am considering on flashing the 10.2 CM nightly on my S4, but I'm currently running stock TW 4.2.2 (4.3 isn't out for my S4 yet), would it be ok to flash a 4.3 based ROM (10.2 CM nightly) over a 4.2.2 stock? Would I need to flash anything additional (other than gapps)? : /

Never, I repeat never update a different ver ie 4.2 to 4.3 base, much has changed.
Good luck...

Dang..:/ so if I wanted to use CM 10.2 I would have to wait until the 4.3 update rolls out for my phone?

What he means is that you cannot dirty flash to a different version of android. A full wipe is required when transitioning.

can you go back to 4.2 or 4.3?

currently i am on 4.3 custom rom, if i decide to go with 4.4 can i downgrade with issues
if your talking about TW. we don't know since there is no 4.4 touch wiz. as far as 4.4 asop you can go back.

it all depends on your boot loader
if you rooted at 4.2.2 and installed a 4.3 rom you can still go back to a 4.2.2 stock
if your 4.3 when you rooted there is no going back to 4.2.2

Questions About Root, KitKat, and ROMS

for years, the first thing i did when i got a new phone was root it and install a new ROM.
Now things seem to be different for me.
i immediately rooted my phone but regret not researching this phone and Android 4.3 and 4.4 better before rooting.
i noticed a lot of the roms require that you flash the leaked KitKat. i tried to do this but it fails every time. So i figured i will just stick to what i have now and wait until the official OTA update.
Well that can't be done since i rooted my phone.
Now for my questions.
Do i need KitKat before installing CarbonROM and if not can i install this instead of the leaked ROM as a prerequisite to other 4.4 based ROMs?
Is it plausible, and perhaps better, to wait for an official KitKat firmware to be downloadable from XDA?
Is there anyway i can get OTA to work again on my rooted device?
Is it worth going all the way back to stock ROM and unrooted device just for OTA release of KitKat?
Is that even possible now that KNOX has been tripped?
Thanks in advance.
Any CM based rom still requires JELLY BEAN'S Boot loader.. so if you want CM/CARBON/AOSB etc then do not upgrade to 4.4.2
