Hi,
Need some help.
I just upgraded to CM 11.0-XNPH44S.
Now after doing that my root gone so do I need to unlock the bootloader again and reroot it or reroot alone is possible.
Unlocking the bootloader means wiping out the phone to factory settings and I'll lose many data in doing that.
Plz help me out.
PS : Can anyone provide the link for OPO Toolkit v2.0 coz mediafire.com link provided in actual post doesn't work and every post on web directs to that link only.
ThnX

First off, you don't need a toolkit, so don't bother. You don't need to unlock the bootloader again, it doesn't relock unless you lock it yourself. All you need to do is flash the sorts zip in TWRP and you'll have root again.

Here's one I prepared earlier:

Check out Section 4, that has a link for SuperSU and explains how to install it. Feel free to ask any questions if you need to.

and, if you want to use cm's Integrated Superuser, just flash this zip instead of supersu
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9zgutQLF14HUlJReXM0NE9TU1k/edit?usp=docslist_api
make the superuser settings visible via terminal
su
setprop persist.sys.root_access=3
and you're fine! this even survives ota updates, as long as you DON'T opt for automatic re-root via recovery

Sorry to disturb you again.
I visited the link you provided but I had few doubts.
Before updating to CM 11.0-XNPH44S when I boot to recovery it goes to TWRP Recovery menu now it goes to Cyanogen Recovery
menu so do I need toinstall TWRP recovery again the way you told or Cyanogen Recovery will do fine.
Can we install SuperSU using Cyanogen Recovery.
Even if I have to do the way you told will my data & apps will be there or it get formatted.

You need to go into Developer Options and uncheck the 'update CM recovery' option. Because you failed top do this before you've lost TWRP during the update. Just flash TWRP again and you can flash SuperSU again. No you can't use CM recovery for this. You won't lose any data or apps.

a. boot into a custom recovery of your choice (bootloader needs to be unlocked)
b. flash the provided zip file ( https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9zgutQLF14HSzI0WXFlQW9fZHM/edit?usp=docslist_api)
c. follow the instructions in the post you quoted

I just got the 4.4.4 OTA update and appear to have lost root, i'm sure i can re root again when i get home.
However i'm wondering what people recommend in keeping root when taking an OTA update.
Thanks for any advice.

SuperSU has a "survival" mode you can check off. It basically tries to keep root after an update. Luckily its easy enough to re-root the One+.

Thanks for the tip, I purchased SuperSU Pro and enabled the feature. As you say though easily enough to re root if you have access to a PC.

You don't need a pc at all, you boot back into recovery after the update and flash your SuperSU zip.

I'm guessing you used a toolkit to unlock and root, right? If you haven't done it already, download SuperSU from here:
http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip
Then you can flash it using the install menu in TWRP recovery.

Of course it works. Also guys TWRP will try and reroot your phone a well after a flash if it detects you lost root. Not for nothing but some of you need to do more reading before you street messing with your phones and leave them toolkits alone.

@playya alright mate got my one plus one now. unlocked bootloader installed twrp and flashed super su. disabled update cm recovery on update. then did update from 22r - 25r then did 25r - 30O and obviously 30O - 33r I didn't realise that the update cm recovery would not stick after each update. so ive now tried to reflash twrp but command line says writing recovery ok and finished but checked on phone and its not there? any ideas do I need to unlock bootloader again which I doubt. but not sure if flashing update would also relock?? cheers

If you have root and a custom recovery you shouldn't be taking an OTA in the first place.
doing this guide here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471
and on step 1 when i type "fastboot devices" it dosen't write anything back.
i have those drivers from the guide http://www.koushikdutta.com/post/universal-adb-driver
and have followed the small guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 beforehand.
and the phone is obviously in fastboot mode ( says so on the screen), yet it dosen't list my phones serial number when typing the command.
edit: another question, is flashing gapps the same as flashing a rom?
thanks in advance to all helpers.
What OS are you running on your PC? Are you using the original OPO cable? Are you using a usb 2.0 or 3.0 port? Do you have any other phone drivers or software installed on your PC?

You need root access to backup your EFS partition, there's no way around that unfortunately.
Flashing gapps isn't exactly the same as flashing a ROM. Flashing a ROM flashes an entire operating system, whereas a gapps package contains only Google apps and services. A gapps package is completely necessary if you want to use the Play Store, or have a Google account attached to your phone.
Transmitted via Bacon
After installing the drivers you have to restart your computer and replug the phone in. Your phone should be in Android os before you go to fastboot. Android debugging should also be disabled.
You could have just posted in the thread previously instead of creating a new thread.

It's up to you, if you click install you will have root on the stock ROM, if you don't install then your stock ROM will remain unrooted. As for the question about the ROMs, only you can answer that. Everyone has different tastes and needs from their ROM so opinions vary wildly. Check out the features and flash one, if you like it then keep it, if you don't like it then flash another one.

Hi guys,
I need your helps. I was currently on TWRP 2.8.0.1, and I was able to access to recovery just fine with bbear's 5.0 rom. then I wanted to update to 2.8.1.0 using the TWRP manager (they said it was the safest) and didn't install busybox as they wanted me to. I proceed with the update and I believed the i got a prompt said that it failed. So I boot to recovery for a good 5 minutes but just stuck on logo. I can still reboot and go back to my rom. How do I fix this?
what if I boot into bootloader and re-push TWRP. should i pushed it with 2.8.0.1 or 2.8.1.0?
Thanks
Just flash TWRP 2.8.1.0 the normal way (fastboot), their app is notorious for screwing up. If you need instructions, check out my guide thread, the link is in my signature.

thanks I will do that when I get home tonight. Believed it or not, i did used your guide to unlock boot loader, flash twrp, and rooted my phone . And TWRP said using their app is safer
Well, TWRP just want you to use their app. In my experience though, using apps like TWRP Manager, ROM Manager, etc to undertake such critical tasks is just asking for trouble. You should be fine once you've flashed it with fastboot.

I'm on 5.0 rom and I don't think I have this option "Update recovery with system updates" to uncheck. I just have to enable USB debugging and flash away correct?

Hi there, I just got my phone and rooted it. Actually I am with 38R and I was wondering if I can update my CM via OTA as a rooted user.
Or do I need to flash something to get it updated?
And another thing, will I lose my data if I update flashing?
I rly looked at the FAQ but I didn't find something specific as that.
Thank you
You don't need to do anything special to update, just update as you normally would. You'll lose root though so you'll need to flash SuperSU after the update.
What do you mean by the second question? Please be more specific.

Ah ok so after updating via OTA i just need to flash SU from TWRP right?
The second question is about some posts that I read about some ppl downloading zip files to update to 44S in fastboot, but if I can just update using OTA its fine.
Thank you

Hi XDA Forum Members,
I had rooted my OPO a while back using TWRP.
I got the CM 12 official update this morning but when I said Install, I saw the TeamWin Menu when the phone rebooted. Since I don't really know the technical details, I didn't know how to install CM 12 (and if I will lose data if I do so). So I just rebooted to system.
Could you please help me out here? If I want to update to CM 12, how do I do it? And if I do so, will I lose data and have to root my phone all over again?
Thanks in advance!
