Hello everyone . I have since a few hours my new OPO (the Cyano's logo is gone). I have no intention for now to root it and I would to take it full stock for a while. I wondered , however, how long will I have to wait for the update notification to COS12 . Currently the version of Cyan I have is : 11.0 - XNF9XBS28K . I expected to see the update notification soon after boot , but after 5 hours still nothing . What experience have you had about it?
Just got two of these myself and from what I understand that is a bad build that should not have been shipped. I solved by unlocking my bootloader and flashing an older official zip. Then my phones took the OTA. I did hear on the Oneplus forums on their site that OnePlus is looking into it. If you are not familiar with flashing you should contact support.
You don't need to unlock your bootloader to flash official updates, just download to your phone and flash with the stock recovery. But why not unlock the bootloader, you'll regret having it locked if something goes wrong in future, trust me.
Thank you. When I wrote, I didn't still read that opo can be upgraded without having to unlock and root. So I have installed the upgrade simply downloading cm12s and rebooting in recovery (fine!). After that I received the last delta update available. @walter: I played with ROM, kernel and so on for many years. Now my job doesn't leave me much free time. At this moment the phone looks solid and stable, so I prefer simply use it as a dummy i-user and wait comfortably in a chair the new update. But I bought an OPO, so in the future, who knows, I might get back to powerly use it!

I'm curious if anyone else waits a bit before rooting. Just in case the phone breaks early on and needs to be sent back.
I'm thinking maybe wait 1-2 months?
Am I paranoid, or does everyone else do this too?

Personally I don't worry about that. I DO wait to give myself time to familiarize myself with how the phone functions and such before rooting so that I know when there is a problem, rather than second guessing.
It is also hard to tell if a Rom/kernel is running better when you have no base line to compare it to.
I rooted my phone almost immediately. I don't like using custom ROMs but I do like using apps and tweaks that require root.

1-2 months??? I didn't even make it 1-2 hours. My phone was unlocked and rooted within 30 minutes of delivery.
I unlocked, installed TWRP, and rooted within 20 minutes of UPS delivering it.
I used to root and start flashing almost immediately. But as the years have passed and I've become more reliant on my phone for work and such, I've started pulling back a bit. I've reached a point where I just get too frustrated with even the slightest bugs so now I immediately unlock the bootloader (to prevent having to do a full factory restore later) and just use the phone as is until a fully stable ROM comes around that I feel comfortable flashing without losing any functionality at all.
This time around I'll probably stay stock with Nova Launcher (once the new 4.4 version is finalized) for another couple months. Time will tell though, I suppose.

Seeing as I have a Nexus device, with factory images provided directly from Google that will return my phone completely back to stock (except lock the bootloader), I usually don't hesitate to root or flash custom ROMs. The only reasons I haven't unlocked my bootloader yet is because CWM isn't completely stable yet (I don't like TWRP for some reason), and because my brother is debating on a Nexus 5 for his new phone, and I wanted to show him complete stock because he won't be a tinkerer. He'll be using the unmodded, unrooted bare stock image.
I rooted it out of the box yesterday.
Waiting myself. Want to get a feel for this device as is. Maybe later I will root/flash. But for now I am happy as is. No rush.
The important thing is you learn about the phone and how to root it and potential issues before you do it. I'm still waiting for my phone but the first thing I'm going to do is put a custom recovery on and make a nandroid. Then I'll root it as I have apps I like to use that require root. I'm not worried about warranty issues as it's pretty straight forward to put the factory image back on it and relock it.
Also, remember that when you unlock it you'll lose all your data and apps. And you'll need to unlock it to root it.
I booted, took the ota, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and Super SU as soon as the phone was in my grimy hands.
Rooted immediately after taking out of the box .. no point waiting...
I unlocked and rooted before activating. Not really planning on flashing any ROMs, but just wanted it done in case I needed to tweak cpu to increase battery life.
Just until you familiarize with your new device.
Just successfully rooting won't affect the end results when using the stock Rom. Everything should still work the same way but with more options for the user.
I jut waited until next day, but took time to play some games, make calls/texts, web browsing and tested all features. There I learned the battery life, Net speed and stock performance. Everything was the way should be Firmware/Hardware wise:good:. Then, unlocked/rooted/ & flashed its first Rom
and here we are!
I didn't even boot it. I powered it on in download mode, fastboot oem unlocked, flashed twrp and rooted. Then booted for the first time. I only rooted for tibu and adaway. Now just waiting on aokp.
I waited 4 days only and mainly because we have no stable recoveries yet. Twrp is a joke while cwm is not official yet.

I'd say just the opposite, but then I like twrp
You can unroot, so....
Hey guys,
Have had my Honor 6 H60-L02 FDD-LTE for little under 4 hours now
Already unlocked the bootloader and flashed CWM V.6.0.5.1
I installed the MIUI v4.9.6 Rom and i don't really like it, it keeps coming up saying com.android.phone has stopped, and when you update to v4.12 it gets stuck in a boot loop
So I don't think MIUI is very stable for the phone, and I want to install EMUI v3.0 (This isn't lollipop yet is it?)
Long story short, I figure i have to reflash the stock recovery firmware because CWM wont install an Update.App file
I downloaded the Honor 6 Multitool
When i get to install recovery, i choose my honor 6 model then it asks for EMUI 2.3 or 3.0, i tried all the 3.0's and they dont load the recovery, just go back into android
so i tried some of the EMUI 2.3's, i have no idea what each number at the end represent and which one suits my phone... i.e B118SP02?
So that is what stage im at, i have MIUI v4.9.6 with CWM V.6.0.5.1
And i am trying to install EMUI v3.0 stable
Any help would be pretty awesome, can say im slightly disappointed with the availability of roms for this phone, but hopefully this will change in the future
Ok ...
i will start from beginning , i will tell you how to get the last stable update for your phone .
witch is B310【EMUI3.0_Android4.4】.
First Download it from here it's 1GB .
or from here (you should translate it first and click on stable and download) .
Second continue with this link .
Attention : Do step 6 before 5 .
Or go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57274153&postcount=1
scroll down to: 3 Button Restore not working (If you change between variant example L02>L12) Or Partition been changes and cannot restore back Stock version. Use this steps below : -
Links to the revert package etc are in the post too
Tried Myahyam's method and now the phone is stuck in a boot loop (shows the honor, powered by android splash, goes black then repeats the splash)
need to unbrick the damn thing now
im following the honor 6 multitools unbrick method, its in fastboot transfering files now, will report back when its done.
Just out of curiosity, besides MIUI and EMUI, what other roms are available to flash using CWM or TWRP?
Okay, managed to get CWM back on and sideload the MIUI4 rom again, just to prove to myself that I didn't brick my phone, so that parts all good!
I will have to try your method another time Julsen, i fly out on a 3 week holiday tomorrow morning, and want to load some games and movies to the phone to watch on the plane.
Hopefully when I come back in 3 weeks, there will be a better choice of roms to install using CWM/TWRK
If not, I will attempt your method Julsen, at least i now know how to fix any softboot/bootloop problems, good learning experience all up!
Here u will find couple of custom roms flashable via cwm

Help me please!
I am having exactly the same problem that serpent is having.
Did any1 found solution?
Hey all, back from my 3 week trip
@nrpetonr i went to that site and grabbed two roms to flash using CWM, they both seem to put it into a boot loop
This phone is strange really, ever since i have unlocked the bootloader and put on a custom rom, its been the only rom that has worked, the rest all put me into a bootloop
Maybe i should try TWRP instead
So I got my opo last summer and I was sooo excited to get it. I got the invite that morning and at that moment I changed my mine from getting a nexus 5 to getting the OPO. So a few months past and I finaly found out how to root my device and I did everything I could to preserve it. So one day I update my OPO and all of a sudden my Device wasn't rooted anymore! I wasn't completely devastated and everything looked fine. Then another month past and I got a notification for an update I think 33R or something like that so I didn't really care as much so I left it alone. I tried to fix it but nothing. So I didn't care. But now that the OPO is getting the update for android 5.0 soon or maybe its already out I really need to fix this NOW! So if anyone can help it would be the most helpful of you cause I'm starting to think of getting a new phone. But the OPO is such a great phone I don't want to get rid of it for a while. Please help! I really need to know how to fix this!
Just download the updates and flash them sequentially, with a reboot in between each update. You'll find them here

I'm confused as to what the problem is? If it's not having root anymore, you need to download SuperSU zip and flash that in your custom recovery like twrp our whatever you have.
Every time you do an update the SuperSU file can be flashed, it won't do any harm but it'll make sure you retain root

Hi guys,
I recently bought Nexus 5. I haven't got android 5.1 update. Do I have to wait or flash flash it manually?. Is there any wrong with my device?

I think OTA's can take long time for the device to receive it. If you want it now just flash manually.
The roll out of a new version of Android for Nexus devices usually takes a few weeks for everyone to completely get it. I waited about 5 days then could not wait anymore since this was supposed to bring so many bug fixes and so many enhancements. So it is up to you if you want to update manually or wait for the automatic one. The good news is you can update it manually without it erasing anything on your device in most cases.
Hi everyone,
I know I am going to sound very annoying but I have googled various threads for hours and I still have not come close to an answer, so please be easy on me. I am a total noob!
So basically, Long story short, I bought this Moto G 2015 (4th Gen - Xt1072 the 5inch screen one) earlier this year, and it has been very slow ever since! So now, I am getting notifications that I cant update to 5.1!
The issue is, my phone is rooted, and I would like it to remain rooted! So, I am assuming i will not be able to install the update file.
The real question I have is, how do I go about this? How do i update to 5.1 (22.46.12.en.GB) without losing my root? I am happy with backing it all up on Titanium, and then updating but I don't know how to do it. Do I have to download the new android on my laptop and then re-install it or something? All this technical talk is literally racking my brain!
I know the solution is probably simple so I would really appreciate if someone can give me a simple answer!
Thanks so much
U have to unroot before doing update .. Or wait for flashable zip of updated rom

Ok, how do I find if there is flashable zip of updated rom? will I lose my files? I have backed them up in titanium anyway
i tried to update my firmware, and now the phone goes to recovery. when i try to start the phone normally, it works for maybe 30 seconds and then restarts back to recovery. Please help anyone, need this urgently sorted!!
