Stopping an ota

I just picked up my m8 from Verizon. Here's what it's running. Is there a way to stop it from updating to the new ota it's wanting to install?
If I try weaksauce and then firewater can I accept the ota or should I not because it will lock the boot loader down? It's always been don't accept otas when unlocked with the s3.
Can anyone help me with the steps I should use? I'm thinking weaksauce, then firewater, then twrp install, then flash su zip? Then what do I do about otas trying to install? Besides flashing a new Rom?
Also, there is a way to go back to full stock right?

From what I've read the ota doesn't break anything that would stop you from being able to s-off. However if you want to s-off before taking the ota then you can do so. There should be a thread around here that contains the zip of the latest ota firmware and radios, etc that you can flash and be up to date without going through the hassle of returning the recovery and such to stock.

On the Verizon m8? Cause I'm reading that firewater may not work on the newest ota. Any ideas?

Nobody has any input? Surely some here have experience on this device that they got recently from Verizon?

I used Firewater on mine without doing the OTA and I'd recommend you do the same just incase.

What did you do afterwards to prevent the ota after soff was done? Did you install twrp and flash su in recovery after?

I believe after I went S-OFF I just flashed a custom ROM. On the other hand I think flashing SuperSU would make the updates fail in the future if thats good enough to you. & Yes I did that too I think.
I know on the Galaxy S4 you could freeze the app giving you notifications about the OTA updates, not sure if you can do that on the M8 or not as I haven't really needed to do it but you could check that out too if all else fails.

Maybe I'll just stop being a new device wuss and flash clean rom. As I want stable and no fussing right now.
What about going stock? Is it possible to lock it all back up if needed?

It's not really being a wuss, honestly you're quite smart to ask questions before doing stuff. Let's just say for example, you did everything with no research no questions asked and pretended you were the master of everything you didn't know YET you would eventually screw up if not immediately. Sooo congrats to you for being smart : D!
Yes I'm quite sure you can lock it back up or at least to a point where it'd be extremely hard to tell whether it was or not. If you like trying new things I'd just try a few ROM's and find one you really like before you settle with one and then just set your stuff up and enjoy it
On the other hand if you like stock and prefer it over it then you can use Xposed and get some of the cool stuff you would from a ROM or even stuff you don't see in ROM's.

Yeah, I'm all for roms, been flashing since my droidx days. HTC is just new to me. I'm coming from a galaxy s3. So this is a bit different. But I think I'm understanding things.
Just nerve racking since I just paid outright for this to keep my unlimited.

Any other suggestions?
I'm thinking my steps are going to be weaksauce, then firewater, then download twrp and flash it. Then delete weaksauce and supersu then go into twrp and flash a super su zip for permanent root. Then start with cleanrom.
Sound about right?

I did firewater after taking the ota and it worked. Any way you choose to do it is fine. But taking ota definitely does not break the possibility of s-off on vzwM8

That's almost exactly like I did it, except I don't think you have to flash SuperSU after installing TWRP since you will install CleanROM anyway. The rom is rooted out of the box.
The way I understand it (and I'm also new to HTC - have done all my flashing on Asus tablets and Moto phones), flashing a rom will format and overwrite /system anyway. And that's where root lives, right?

Well I got it done. Didn't take the ota and I used weak sauce, then firewater, then fastboot flashed twrp, installed SuperSU zip and I'm off and rolling. Ready to install clean ROM. I'm loving this device.

[Q] How to update rooted Moto G?

Hi,
I hope this has not been covered more than once - I've really searched for it on this forum but couldn't find anything about it.
I rooted my Moto G. All I wanted was to use the "Greenify" App and to fix a wakelok that seems to happen occasionally, getting my battery time back to ~10 days again (I hardly use the phone). I don't need root for anything else.
I am very interested in the Android L update, though, because of a couple of features I have been waiting for for very long.
And of course I would appreciate getting rid of the "update available" notification.
What is the easiest/most foolproof way for me to update my Moto G, possibly using OTA?

Download VooDoo OTA RootKeeper on the Google play store, it temporary disables root. After that, you can restore root. Hope that helps.

Thanks. This seems to be intended to keep root only, though. My problem is (sorry that I was unable to clarify this in my first post) that I can not use the OTA update for my Moto G at all because it is rooted. If I try to apply the OTA update the phone will get stuck in an endless reboot-loop because of some checksum failure or so (as desribed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/android-4-4-2-to-4-4-4-failed-t2819308
Is there a foolproof way to get around this issue as well?

This should help you.

I rooted my Moto G using this excellent tutorial: http://www.swedroid.se/forum/showthread.php?t=106595
As I see it, the only reason the OTA update does not work is the fact that the recovery partition was changed and thus the checksum does not match. I also assume that I would just need to restore the stock recovery in order for the OTA updates to work again. Is that correct?
As I said, I am really not interested in any custom tinkering at all. The only thing I wanted was root access and I have grown to like Greenify. It is my understanding that I do not need CWM in order to retain root access. What I would like to achieve now is to install the OTA updates without worries. I could live with having to root the device again after each update, provided that does not involve flashing recovery and unlocking again.

You could reflash stock recovery and then OTA should work if that's what it was falling over on. If you lose root and need to re-root, you can do so by reflashing the recovery installable zip version of SuperSU from acustom recovery, which of course you now won't have.
However, you can always boot into a custom recovery from a PC without actually flashing it, i.e. get into fastboot mode and do:
Code:
fastboot boot yourfavouritecustomrecovery.img
that should boot you into CWM (or whatever) temporarily without overwriting your stock recovery so you can re-root. You won't need to unlock the bootloader again.
If you upgrade to the premium version of SuperSU it has a feature that attempts to survive OTA updates that may save you having to re-root, but YMMV.

You can try to update the OTA by following the steps in the OP of this Post. It worked for me
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/ota-file-indian-dual-sim-4-4-4-t2810166
Just follow the steps below the text:
REVERT TO STOCK WITHOUT LOSING DATA OR ANYTHING ELSE
Basically you have to do this. Restore stock, do the OTA and than reroot using superboot to root.
Phone is unlocked, rooted and had xposed modules on it

Get back to stock ROM and check for updates

You can also try to find an official 4.4.4 firmware, flash it without wiping anything except the cache partition, and re-root afterwards.
So your phone is being updated, you won't lose anything and you still get root.
I did that with my Moto G 4G/LTE and it works beautifully.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for all your input.
Going back to stock recovery did not fix the OTA update problem/boot loop.
Even though I never installed a custom ROM I ended up re-installing the stock 4.4.2 firmware (without erasing userdata) and then just applying the OTA update.
Now I tried booting into CWM (fastboot boot recovery.img) but that just leads to "waiting for device", so I flashed CWM recovery again, rooted and then restored stock recovery. Works.
And I have learnt quite a bit in the process. That's always nice.
Thank you guys, you reign supreme.

Root/recovery help needed... PLEASE

I just got a m8 , Verizon obviously. And am having trouble figuring out how to root and install recovery. I'm not a noob, but I've been out of the loop for awhile. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm attaching a picture of my firmware settings. Thanks guys!!

I was about to tell you to go read the stickies but I don't know that they've been updated for our situation with 4.4.4.
The first way to root 4.4.4 is through weaksauce 2. That will get you what many call a "temp root" which re-roots each time upon boot and therefore has some limitations. To get "full root" you need to run sunshine which both unlocks your bootloader and turns s-off. It wasn't made to run on 4.4.4 but many people have reported it working alongside weaksauce 2. One you unlock, you can install a custom recovery and flash superSU.
Your first step is to read read read and make sure you still remember how to deal with the issues your about to open yourself up to. I know you said you're not new at this. Then you should read the weaksauce2 thread and probably the sunshine thread. Best of luck.

And to install recovery? Does it have to be done manually, or can I use goo manager or Rom manager

The best and safest way is to flash recovery in fastboot. It's also very important to have fastboot working for troubleshooting. I would never flash a recovery any other way than fastboot, but it does work with TWRP Manager or Flashify.
Just make 100% sure those apps identify your phone correctly!!! Otherwise they could flash the recovery to the wrong partition and then you would be in deep doodoo for sure. ESPECIALLY if you did not set up fastboot/adb...
Get it working and use it. It'll save your bacon sooner or later.
GooManager, ROM Manager are outdated. Don't use them.
Edit: Use this version of fastboot/adb for the HTC M8: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001612150

Do I run resistive, then I run sunshine on top of weaksauce? I can't seem to update my su binary when rooted by weaksauce...

I just looked in the weaksauce 2.0 thread and the OP tells you that it has been baked into recent versions of sunshine. My guess is that you just need to download sunshine from the "theroot.ninja" website and see if it tells you that it'll work. If so then pay for it and be done.
I'd you're having further troubles you should go to their support section on their website and I bet they'll get you straightened out.

can anyone help me out with twrp for LG Stylo 2

OK so I'm not a dev and my device is the LG Stylo 2, LS775. I found a way to make the root permanent for our device then another fellow came along asking for the stock recovery so he could port twrp for the Stylo 2 and he did he used the TWRP for the LG Stylo hence why I'm here. It's flashed and booted up just fine touch controls worked great the only problems I was having was it's not reading any partitions what so ever so I cant back up anything or choose files to flash. He tried fixing it and ended up bricking his own device in the process. I'm here to see if any Stylo developer could take a look and possibly fix it he was a newer dev so I believe that's why his device got fried.anyway if you could be so kind it would be much appreciated by me and other stylo 2 owners everywhere. Here is the stock recovery for the Stylo 2 LS775 https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4Gofg_yEN9-NHNsQ0ZHVEcwQlU/view?usp=drivesdkand here is the ported version that boots fine just doesn't mount partitions https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4Gofg_yEN9-Z2hqNFZEUHBzNk0/view?usp=drivesdk and here is some pictures of stuff it said in twrp I couldn't take a log as it didn't read a device to save it to

its pretty universal if you can get kingroot to at least temp root you should be fine follow my guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/boost-varient-permanent-root-t3435543 all i did was get temp root from kingroot then removed kingroot and installed supersu via terminal emulatore after that was done I installed busy box and flashfire then flashed the newest su binary with flashfire if it asks you to reboot just make sure to softboot because you wont lose temp root for that you can get a soft reboot app in the play store, but follow my guide let me know if it works for you that would be great.

In there lies the problem, kingroot does not even get temp root on my variant yet. I have unlocked the bootloader via fastboot already, but with no root or any other development for that matter, doesn't really mean a thing.

As always, please take a moment to hit the thanks button! Without the work of these amazing dev's we would NOT have root PERIOD! It is free for you, and mean's a lot to everyone involved in bringing these releases to you the public!!!
Here is latest root zip with SuperSU 2.82 (5/29/2017)
Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V1.zip
I let the phone reboot and when I open SuperSU, I receive the error "SU Binary Occupied". This happened the absolute very first time I attempted to root the phone, nothing has ever been done to the phone, it was 100% stock. I then unrooted the phone with the unroot.bat. I have been getting device disconnects when running the root.bat. My phone is connected and it is not actually disconnecting as far as I can see. I am also getting a "Protocol Error" occasionally when the script is attempting to install SuperSU. I can run the command by hand and it installs no problem, it only errors out with the script. I then use the unroot.bat and start over which the script will run fine again. The apps uninstall when the unroot.bat runs and they then re-install when the root.bat runs.
I have yet been able to root this phone successfully.
I did get the error to not show at one point after I ran the unroot.bat. I installed SuperSU v2.79 via adb cmd prompt, and then opened the app. It then gave me the SU binary needs to be updated error, which it fails at doing.
I really do not want to reset the phone as I'm not even sure that would solve anything as it didn't work the first time from stock.
I have read that there is TWRP working for the S7 but i cant tell if it's for the US version or not, I didn't look into it very deeply.
Does anyone have any advice?

Well, bit the bullet and re-flashed my phone using QH7 odin files and attempted root again. This time it has worked successfully!
It appears that there may have been something that installed funny when the upgrade to Nougat occurred as my reboot time is about 20 seconds now, compared to the 60 seconds it took previously.
Guess if you are getting the same problems when you've never rooted before, a re-flash may result in these issues resolving themselves.

The TWRP is not for S7 T-mobile sm-g930t, becouse it has the bootloader locked, and no way to unlock it.

Somebody found a way to unlock bootloader on verizon s7, can it waork also with a t-mobile version???
Thanks

There's a lot of people who get confused with carrier unlocks and bootloader unlocks. If you know what you are talking about and aren't confused please share a link or pictures.

Was this ever resolved? I'm having the exact same problem. Even tried flashing back to prior firmware. No success.
