Hello, sorry if this has been asked but I can't find the answer anywhere. Is it possible to root my note 10.1 and still get OTA updates and it will still keep root. Also what are some benefits that you will get for rooting on this device. I used to have a Asus Transformer and I was able to root it and still have OTA updates and it would stay rooted.
I think that the benefits of root are in the Apps that requires root.
Some examples:
*Gesture control
*multiwindow manager
*spen control

You can be rooted and still get ota updates by keeping stock recovery. Updates will most likely remove root but as long as they don't lock the bootloader you will always be able to root again. Easily.

Can you explain with more details how did you receive OTA updates with root for the galaxy note 10.1? Please

Go to sammobile.com and use ODIN or Mobile ODIN to flash updates/rom...
You need official in download mode and official in status is order to get ota. I was rooted with official status in both areas but certain apps trigger the custom mode. I did triangle away to get official in download mode but you need to do a reset to rid the custom in status... and I cant be bothered to set mine up again so havent done it.
Search for triangle away in the store.

Hello dear friends and Moto g user. Since i own the G i feel so less tempted to root my phone.
Am i the only one who thinks that the G has a great firmeware and outstanding akku life?
I'm afraid that rooting and flashing a custom rom would effect the battery life.
So what do you think rooting and flashing a custom jay or ney?

Moto G is still unrooted over here. Think this is the longest ive gone without touching a phone. Think it will still this way and Stock G is more than enough for me.
I have rooted my phone, but i only did this to provide a backup method, I like Titanium. I have been following a couple of the custom ROM threads for weeks and I just read of too many problems. The Moto G factory firmware is fine but if you want to tweak it some, just install xposed and whatever modules you need. I have done just this and I have got a sweet system that includes most of the tweaks we look for in custom ROMs.

I rooted my Moto G to take full benefit of having full access to my device as I need it. More specifically, I did it to use Xposed modules like App Setting and the graphic card spoofer app GLTools. These are not necessary of course, but I feel like having custom DPI on an app to app basis should be a normal Android feature everyone should have access to without root.

Besides the posibility to have full access to the phone I also rooted it to be able to block ads.
I ran the g stock until cm11 was stable enough for daily use. Now I am running PAC and loving the fact that this phone still has it great battery life as it did stock with my heavy usage. One thing I will say is if you have to ask to root then I don't think you need to.

Is it possible to root the phone without unlocking the bootloader?
Inviato dal mio XT1032 utilizzando Tapatalk
No
If you root your moto g you can delete system apk, install xposed frameworks and its modules like gravity box, modify the governors of the cpu, the performance of the phone, etc.
Xposed! <3
If you need to ask this question then you shouldn't be rooting your phone.

@Carlos_EVH You mention delete system apk, is this one entity, or do you mean items such as Assist, Motorola migrate?

I rooted my phone to use Titanium as backup app (and to uninstall and freeze apps like Google+, Google movies, Google games and Google music).
And if you are root is easy to hide the carrier label, change the battery icon and the statusbar quicksettings (Xposed + gravity + motoguide).
For me stock is perfect at the moment (with customization) and Motorola has good updates at least until now

All apks, for example, I deleted google +, google play books, play games, play músic and maps, I also deleted motorola migrate. And everithing works fine after I deleted all those apks.
But if I were you, just after unlock the bootloader or before root, I'd do a backup of all the system apk using the all in1 motorola moto tool because, if you delete system apk you won't be able to flash the future OTAs even if you reflash the stock recovery.
Sorry for the mistake, English isn't my first language

Two reasons to root:
1. You can make decent backups with Titanium Backup.
2. You can install a firewall that prevents selected (i.e., most) tools from sending your precious data to wherever they want.
But if you unlock the bootloader for rooting, the warranty will be void... In Europe also (I've just asked to amazon)

A 2-year warranty? I thought it was 1 year. That's a nice surprise.
I think if you have to ask why, then rooting is not for you since you will probably not fully utilize it.

I've flashed several different Roms and the problem always been there... Some times ago I've seen and upgrade for something related to radio or similar, it can be it in conflict with the newer version of android?

AFAIK radio has to do with signal network
i don't know if it is the culprit
but you can change radio only if you are on S-OFF

Hi, complete noob here, but i need your help.
I receive my new tablet today in Argentina, and i really would like not to lose my old one with the faulty battery.
Is there any easy way to make nvidia not to deactivate it? I don't know how to root it or flash it, my old tablet is with stock android with latest updates.
Any easy tutorial will be nice.
Thank you so much.
There's an excellent tutorial here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-nvidia-shield-custom-rom.394750/
just change ROM for not deactivate the tablet?

So basicly you want to use a fire hazard that will probably blow up your hands one day?
replacing the battery no problem

Unlock the bootloader, get twrp, mount /system/, delete /system/app/TegraOTA/
You will need to fastboot flash all updates from now on. Always nuke the OTA updater.
if you re-install the stock rom does it include the tegraota?
