[Q] New update

I guess everyone got notification for downloading update for android 5.0 lollipop on nexus 5. When the download is complete and the phone is restarted, it takes me to TWRP screen and I could not figure out what to do next. How could I update now ?

Are you stock?

same issue
you have the same issue as I do. if you press the wee squiggly lines at the botton and you will see the log that the install failed.
looks like the root job left something with a KVT49L signature and lollipop wont update now. I posted on how to get by this by no replies as of yet.
I suppose stock android has to be reinstalled wiping out the phone then the ota would work......but I am not sure how to reinstall stock kitkat

Any roots for galaxy s7 Sm-G930U?

The "special edition" of the galaxy s7 US unlocked just came out a few days ago. I'm wondering if anybody knows a way to root this variant yet. Will the G930F root work for this version?

It will probably be the same story as the current carrier locked models. I am just waiting for the unlocked firmware to come out so I can try flashing my carrier variant S7.

I was trying to help evobyte with Smart Switch but our end verdict was Smart Switch doesn't have compatibility with G930U yet. Makes sense because when I contact Samsung regarding the G930U they said that model didn't exist and not a US model. Told them how it was just release and after being put on hold they apologized. So yea...

Damn we need to find a way to get that firmware it's bloat free. I was gonna test on t-mobile s7.

Hey man, root is availible. The 930a/935a root will work. Also, once rooted, you should TOTALLY download flashfire and make a COMPLETE backup and upload it do gdrive and pm it to me or post the link if you're OK with the drive traffic.

may you report back to see if it works

When you experience performance issues and battery drain after root, use kernel auditor AND kernel toolkit.
Use toolkit to set the correct cpu frequencies for both sets of cpus, and governor, then use auditor to turn off all thermal options. I'm currently working on a root with the bugs fixed. But for now, just do that and make sure no apps are disabled and make sure "require pin on reboot" is not on

Has anyone received it yet?

I'm not sure how people having been trying to update. I first tried just using the system update on the phone but it showed nothing was available. I installed HiSuite on my PC, connected my phone to it, followed instructions and voilà, there was the update. Possibly a timing coincidence, but I post what I did here, just in case people haven't tried.

I've been trying the Updater app every morning, and this morning it was just there ready to go!
Did it OTA over my home WiFi, no need to connect with HiSuite.
Sorry to leave you Samsung, but I'm really loving this Huawei phone.

Malaysia! Seems like everyone getting the update is from Europe. Believe this is for the European release. Kind of sad that they neglected Asia ex-China devices. Guess we have to be more patient.

The B135 (in the chinese version) it's already with the improvements for camera?

And not to cross post, but I've tried just about every option, listed in the original Thread about the Android 9 being live in the u.s.! I've uninstalled, clear cache, reinstalled, install the beta after uninstalling the Play Store version, still no luck! It always gets stuck on the just after the terms of service I click register, and it just boots me back to the home screen, I've rebooted, powered off about 60 different times. I'm not sure what gives! I'll keep trying. This is the T-Mobile variant.
