1.) This update isn't lollipop
2.) With unlocked bootloader you can't update officialy, use Emma or Flashtool.

i could be wrong but dont you have to only download the 4.3 update from sammobile.com (correct phone for your phone/country specifically), get the latest version of odin and flash it from there? you dont need root right? just download mode.

nice just got a notification on my phone that an update is available.
I wonder if a rooted and custom kernel (experience) would interfere with a smooth upgrade?
- would I lose root?
- custom kernel problematic?
thanks merlin

[Q] HELP E8 M8Sn back to 100% Stock

Hi guys,
I need your help!
I purchased this device with already installed TWRP and superSU.
In attached image you can see the actual situation:
This is my first Android device and therefore are not very skilled.
What is the best (and easiest) to restore it as it was originally?
Looking in the forum I found WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit, may be useful in my case?
My os is
1.05.401.1
Im m8sx user
Yours is 1.06.401.1
Try to flash my stock recovery so you can update your phone when OTA is available

Thanks for your help!
But I think that if I can't recovery for my OS, it will be better to wait OTA update and use recovery.img
Hope OTA will arrive soon :fingers-crossed:

Try to flash recovery stock via fastboot, and unroot your device from supersu app. Bootloader lock/unlock is indifferent for ota update. You will need a stock rom with stock recovery and unroot device..
