I've made a huge mistake

I hope my Arrested Development instired title sparked your interest enough to look at this thread. I am fairly new to rooting and I am looking for some help!

My huge mistake:

I rooted my Galaxy S3 using Odin a couple months ago and soon after the OTA update hit the Verizon Network. Not knowing what I was doing I accepted the update. Now I have lost root privilege and binary. I am having trouble doing a recovery through Titian backup. Would you guys be willing to help me solve this problem and explain it to me like I'm 5 (I'm not that technical yet).

Would I be able to preform the root (I think its called flashing a ROM?) process in Odin the way I did initially without bricking my phone?

Thanks guys!

Welcome to the forum! Since you have already installed the update from your carrier, what you can do is to re root your phone. Root it again like how you previously root your phone.

By re rooting, your phone would be rooted again so there is nothing to worry about :)

Yea, just go through the same procedure as to how you rooted your phone before you update.
