Hi
I was on stock ROM and the phone was rooted ok and Titanium working fine
I then installed the modems and firmware ok. Then I loaded the ROM & gapps clearing data, cache etc
[ROM+KERNEL] Uber CM-12.1---ONEPLUS [AK Kernel] [GCC 4.8 & 4.9]
Phone re booted and its not rooted? Do I have to unlock the bootloader again and then root it again via fastboot and re install as this will wipe the phone data and then re install the firmware, modems, ROM and gapps again?
What options are there?
Cheers
root

I don't think you need to do all that--see #4:

That's because root (the SuperSU app) is stored in system, so whenever you wipe system in order to flash a ROM you lose root access. This is completely normal. Some ROMs come pre-rooted, some don't, so for those you just need to flash SuperSU again to get root again. The bootloader is not affected though, that will remain unlocked unless you specifically decide to lock it again.

I am going to flash the 4.4.4. KatKiss ROM (currently my 101 is on KatKiss 4.3.1)
I am planning a full format / wipe....do I need this or can I just flash the ROM with TWRP?
What version of TWRP is recommended for this ROM? I am on 2.3.1.
If I have to upgrade TWRP, what is the best way to do it? I have heard ADB is not recommended??? What about TWRP manager on GooglePlay?
Thanks a lot - Love the ROM, and the help!

You should be able to just wipe SYSTEM, CACHE and DALVIK CACHE and flash the ROM and GAPPS
IIRC it's fine doing it that way for upgrading, but if you ever wanted to return to a lower version of Android, you'd have to factory reset / format everything
You should be good to go with that version of TWRP, I use 2.3.2.3 but unfortunately the Goo Manager used for upgrading TWRP has been dropped, so you'd need to use a flashable zip to update
Flash from your current version of TWRP, then reboot back into Android to complete the update, once back in Android, you can boot into your new TWRP and flash your new 4.4.4 ROM

Hi, my N5 has a problem, it has the USB port broken so i can't connect it to the PC. It now has KitKat 4.4.4.
Here is my problem:
I want to update to Lollipop but i can't do it with Factory image and/or Sideload because the USB problem.
I tried to "unroot" but i couldn't do it right, i've downloaded the 5.0 OTA and my phone rebooted with a red triangle and it said "error" i know this is because i still keep my phone rooted.
So i would like to know 2 things:
1) How do i unroot definitely? because i did it before but it seems it didn't do right, i clicked "unroot" on SuperSU (i read that sometimes when you press "unroot" it doesn't erase all the folders and files so you have to do by your own, but what files and what folders are they?)
2) If i unroot and i if update to Lollipop, can i be root without using the USB port?
Of you're rooted, why would you want the stock ota anyway? There are PLENTY of 5.0 Roms in the development section with custom kernels (custom kernels are needed in 5.0 lollipop for root). Flash one of those in recovery. Make sure you have the latest TWRP which you can flash with flashify if you can't fastboot flash using USB.

Is really needed to flash a custom kernel to get root on Lollipop? I'm asking because in this thread [ROM] [STOCK] Android 5.0 LRX21O - Stock/Flashable (11/12/14) FAQ nº 2 it says:
Q: How do I get root?
A: If you want to keep the stock kernel, use CF-Auto-Root. If you flash a custom kernel, just flash the newest SuperSU ZIP afterwards.

So i understand that we can have root with stock kernel, is this ok or did i misunderstood something?
If i want to flash a custom kernel, where can i get "SuperSU" Zip to get root? and does it need to clean something after or before flashing this file? caché, data, etc?
Yes CF AUTO ROOT will allow your to root the stock image. However since youre already rooted youre running into issues flashing it successfully. I attached the SU zip below. My recomendation is if you want the stock ota image, download it from the developer thread, flash francos custim kernel for lollipop ans then flash the root zip i have attached below. I would complete a full wipe of system, data, and both caches (not internal storage or you will lose all on sd card) before flashing. Once you wipe just flash the the rom, kernel and root zip in that order.

Thanks!!!
It worked perfectly!
I tried first with CF AutoRoot but it failed, but it worked with SuperSU.
Hi
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy s2 GT-I9100, I have copied over to my phone the nessessary files to flash a custom Kitkat based rom (Rom, Kitkat compatible CWM and Gapps) my question is simple, is it possible to flash the rom etc without wiping the data and factory reset etc?
Cheers
yes, it is
Rom installed but a little niggle exists
Ok
I have used CyanogenMod's brilliant online utility to install the latest KitKat rom 4.4.4, all is fine except that I have some contact details missing. I backed everything up using Kies the night before I installed KitKat, but now Kies doesn't want to connect with my phone even though I have enabled USB Debugging.
Is there any other way I can retrieve the missing contacts?
Cheers
I usually wipe.

I usually wipe before installing any ROM but to be safe just go by the instructions for the ROM.
Please ask in your respective fourm

Hi!
I have the same problem, ever since i think when upgrading from kitkat to lollipop.
My model XT1033 - Bootloader 41.18 - Rom 12.1-20150815-NIGHTLY-falcon (latest official nightly)
I don't have any solution. I've been using a third-party uninstaller apk that allows just deleting the app's files instead of going through the normal package manager system.
Any advice appreciated
EDIT: I think this problem is the same as http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/2-problem-remove-app-systeme-crash-t3070609/ .
i got solution

But i want to use Lollipop (CM12.1), is this still possible with a KK bootloader?
yes get twrp recovery u can install any rom
I've had this problem when I flashed from 4.3 to 5.1.1 AOSP
Security tab in Settings was crashing too
I solved this problem when I flashed stock Lollipop, did first setup, wipe cache/dalvik... (factory reset in TWRP recovery), flashed 5.1.1 AOSP
Use the correct kernel for ROM , Where make changes ( Install ROOT , flashing ZIP , Change Components of ROM) , always use Clear ALL / Factory Reset
And always use updated versions of ZIPs (Kernel , Firmware, Root , ETC .. )
Flashfire is a great app that you can use to flash official firmware. Here are links to the app thread
XDA Thread
Google Play
I was able to flash official CPF3 firmware from a CM13 rom and was able to keep unlocked bootloader and root CPF3 from installing supersu zip file from TWRP recovery.
when you choose the firmware to install, only select Boot.img, System, & Cache and it will flash the firmware, and it may bootloop, just pull battery out and and back in and reboot, I can't remember if I did a battery pull during bootloop and booted into recovery to factory reset after firmware flash and it booted right up.
This is my new favorite app, you do have to be rooted. You may find more info at the app thread. But just wanted to let everybody here know it does work and it's awesome.
hello
i am in N910VVRU2BPA1 can i use flashfire to flash N910VVRU2CPD1 without recovery and bootloader then flash 6.0.1 custom roms ???
