Hello guys, i'm actually at Android 5.1.1 and the OTA already came, but when i want to update it, it says "The operating system of your device has been modified..."
I have Xposed too.
I need to know if there's any way of updating Lollipop to Marshmallow without losing any data being rooted.
Thanks!

If your using the Indian Variant of the Device , I.E J700F pls download it from the following link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...shmallow-update-j700f-indian-variant-t3431871
you can use smart switch, the safest way i think!

(i know it's too early to talk about it, but i can't handle my anxiety)
Find and flash a stock ROM... When the roll out starts just "un-root" using SuperSu's built in "un-root" option.

You will need to flash stock ROM, stock recovery and unroot your device in order to update to lollipop safely
Hello Folks
This morning I noticed, Tmobile pushed a 60mb update to my phone. I am rooted and unlocked but not on a custom rom.
Please advice what I need to do.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Is there any issuse with the update
I have not updated. As I mentioned I am rooted and unlocked. Not sure what to do hence posted my question in the forum.
I do not want to lock the bootloader. Just curious to see what others who might have got this update are doing about it.

1. You don't have to worry about lock bootloader
2. Which Software version are you running? v10e, v10i or v10j?
3. If you update there is a way to downgrade cuz we have previews KDZ's
I am running version 10i,
I am guessing tmobile wants to upgrade me to v10j. Is there a flash able version for 10j that I can use?
Thanks

dummy you can't update that way you must remove all traces of root which the app can't do use the KDZ
If you are rooted and it says system update DO NOT INSTALL IT... it will brick your phone

Plan to pick up a shield tablet and I'd like to run PS4 remote play on it. So far as I understand now (with the latest PS4 firmware and app), this is only possible with a rooted android running xposed and a Sony framework.
Does anyone know if this is possible on the Shield running Nougat? Can xposed be flashed on Nougat?
I've searched and most of the threads I find are long before the nougat update.
xposed doesnt work on nougat yet mte there working on it but its alot more complicated than other firmwares
OkThanks. I was worried that was the case. Edit: just realized this is true for more than shield, xposed is still in progress for all of nougat. Could be a while.
So when the tablet arrives I assume it will be on MM. Perhaps I can prevent the update to N and root it out of the box. Now I'll have to read on preventing the update I guess.
If you root MM, is there an update path to stock nougat later?

once you root you will have a unlocked bootloader and twrp installed so you can go for a custom rom or stay stock, but you can block updates in developer menu or just simply ignore them. your tablet might come with LP installed aswell mate

If you modify your phone ( root ) you will loose the option to update ( OTA update ).
If you want to update you phone you will have to download firmware and flash with Odin. Everytime that you update firmware you will have to re-root you phone again.

Generally yes ( mainly with rooting )
You can backup your app/data by using something like Google backup service or smart switch ( PC app ).
Hey guys,
Hopefully I'm not requesteing a completely useless thing cause I haven't found a fix so far. Since it's somehow related to firmware flashing via Odin, I chose to ask in this thread.
I bought my Galaxy S8+ a while ago and carrier unlocked it (It was on Vodafone Romania). Ever since unlocking the carrier, I can't seem to receive any firmware updates for some reason.
Smart switch says I'm at the latest firmware version but according to Sammobile, I'm far from being at the last version. (Still Android 8 on it)
My phone is not rooted (I haven't felt the need to root it so far because it's been doing great). Any ideas how can I fix this and install the latest firmware?
If I download the latest Romania firmware from sammobile (carrier-free version) and flash it through Odin, would it work or I'd encounter a difference because the CSC is Vodafone Romania?
Thanks!
Hey is there a way to root the SM-G975U with security update on july 1, android pie, and a way to unroot? (like the stock rom files)
