Hey guys,
I just got the new controller and went through the disappointment of finding out that I have to wait for another few valve time weeks to be able to use it to it's full potential.
Now I count myself as a total technical mongoloid and it took me quite a bit of effort to root my tablet when i got it in marshmallow.
My question now is such: Does anyone know what the process of updating a rooted marshmallow to nougat is going to look like? I don't expect it to be me just tapping the update prompt...
TL;DR: What's the rooted update to Nougat gonna look like?

You should unroot the device before doing the update.
Just flash stock system file from your PC.

Could you kindly throw me a link to a simple to understand tutorial on how to unroot the tablet? Also will i have to factory reset it or can I keep my files?

Do this with the last firmware (if you are on the last) available on NVIDIA website but just flash System partition and recovery.
On my tablet it shows that Nugat not that MM is final and no further .... mam OTA 4.4 .. so it will only be for a version?

Quick boot doesn't seem to be available anymore... is there something else we should use?
Also, I downloaded the update before I saw that it doesn't really improve much. I don't want it now, but it's downloaded and says it will install on a restart. Is there any way to prevent this? Can I delete the update somehow?
Thanks

The update has made my K1 significantly snappier, smoother and faster. Especially opening apps, going back to home screen, app drawer, etc. Not a huge change, but it's significant.
Plus, security patches are important. I'd disagree that N "doesn't improve much".
I havent noticed too much of a change updating to nougat but the multi-window is kinda cool. Root was easy to get after updating. You just flash twrp with fastboot flash recovery, boot into recovery and flash supersu zip worked for me no problem. The main complaint i have with the nougat update is i dont seem to be able to use kali nethunter anymore, which sucks. If anyone knows how i can get it working that'd be awesome. Im thinking of restoring my mm backup i made right before i updated just to get nethunter back.

Oh and i did not unroot my devices before i updated and it was fine. Although i did lose my root and also my recovery. but like a explained above both were very easy to get back, took all of five min hope this helps you.

I was wondering if rooting is possible on T-mobile's LG G2 yet on the 4.4.2 KitKat update. I had root privileges before and then when I updated I lost them. I'm not interested in going back to 4.2.2. Then I came across ioroot25, claiming to have added support for 4.4.2 devices. The process was only like 2 steps, the first being to root into recovery. Whenever I try to do that I see the little android dude on my screen for a fraction of a second saying something like installing system update (main point being, the root batch file from ioroot25 isn't getting the device to go into recovery, meaning I CAN'T accept the adb update, which was step two)
ANY SOLUTION?

From what I understand, the d801 is the only device that there's this problem with. It doesn't work at the moment but they're working on a fix for it.
Freegee is working for recovery now tho once u get root.
Yeah, really sucks... T-Mobile is a no go atm. No way to boot into stock recovery from 4.4.2

For all other G2 models, the ioroot method (version 25) works. One prerequisite for that method is access to recovery. We (d801 owners) do not have access to recovery. Attempts to access recovery are being documented in the thread titled "[Please Read] We need help to try and find out how to get into stock 4.4 recovery!" Keep your eye on that thread. If we can get access to recovery, we can use ioroot.
All,
I'm on the fense with rooting and removing Carrier IQ and installing Greenify. What happens when there is a OTA update on our phones? Can I still install it? Obviously I know any updates, there is a chance it will kill the root but I'm more worried about being able to update the phone.
On a side note, what's up with the development of ROM's for this phone? This is the first phone I ever had where I have not seen much ROM's for it.
Thanks all!

The development of the the phone is so slow right not because the bootloader is unlocked. There is a bounty for the unlocked bootloader to be achieved but it has not been solved yet. If there is an OTA update for the phone, someone correct me if im wrong but I think you would have to go back stock and then re-root the device. I could be wrong though. Yeah I understand that you want to keep the phone up to date but I know updates will come very slow if its anything like the G2. I prefer root, debloated, carrier delete, and Greenufy any day over rare OTA's.

Trust and believe me I have the same itch! lol. Every android device that I have ever owned has been rooted within the first week of owning it. I honestly try to not root and leave it as is but then again I cant't help it and have been using a good amount of tweaks that I cant go without for the most part. But with the changes with root that I said above and running Nova Launcher, I have no complaints right now.
Here's what i'm wondering. Will i need to reinstall the stock rom before i update? I debloated with titanium so my rom no longer has a bunch of files from the factory rom.
I hope LG is fast than last time with the updates though. Their history with updates made me very weary of this device.

Agreed, my guess is that we will see a bootloader unlock well in advance of an OTA from LG. There is not a tremendous amount of change that 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 could really deliver that the LG overlay does not do already (stock) in many ways. There are obviously features that 4.4.4 has we do not with LG's 4.4.2 overlay; but not a ton from a casual day-to-day view.

No, i didn't. that would have been smart though. I'm not used to using a rooted rom without custom roms haha.
To take an OTA after rooting all you need to do is unroot through SuperSU and take the update. If you don't see the update after unrooting, do a factory restore. Its simple. You don't have to flash a stock firmware to update.

I am excited about Android L as well and cant wait for it lol.
As to the Op's question, I am a bit more cautious about taking ota updates some. If I choose to update I usually unroot, and undo any changes I've made to the system such as xposed modules and xposed framework, and revert any build prop changes, then take the OTA.

So if i have a modified stock rom right now i should be able to simply unroot and then take the update even though i am missing files from the original factory rom? I don't think i've ever taken an OTA in my life since i always flash through recovery.

Did anyone else get a pop-up for a new OTA update today? I'm running NI2 and the new one looks to be NK2. Google doesn't return much in the way of results for something coming today/recently. There's not much on Verizon's site either: http://www.verizonwireless.com/dam/support/pdf/system_update/benefits-galaxy-s5-12-16-14.pdf All it lists is a VPN fix, SD card fix, and replacing ISIS with Softcard. It does not appear to be Lollipop
Hopefully flashing the kernel to NCG rooting and then returning to the current kernel still will work. I can download the files if someone can explain how to extract the kernel.
I too just received this update. Going to wait don't want to lose root
I got the update and applied it. Lost root (knew I would), but everything else seems fine.
I don't know how to extract the kernel though. Hopefully others take notice and help you or just provide the process and files for the masses.

use terminal emulator or adb (just need root) - for system and kernel dump
Code:
su
dd if=dev/block/mmcblk0p15 of=/mnt/sdcard/boot.img
dd if=dev/block/mmcblk0p23 of=/mnt/sdcard/system.img
Seems to be a small and non-critical update. I'll probably skip on this and wait for lollipop.

I've had a few skips here and there, but occurances vary greatly depending on the app, BT device, and distance. 90%, though, is problem free.
I just updated lost root of course, used the towleroot/odin flash method and put the NI2 kernal back on, phone says I am still up to date with NK2, and finds no new updates. Not sure if this is actually the case, I am still new to all of this. But I do have root access back now so..
you would have to odin back to ncg kernal, root then odin nk2 kernel back once and if its available
---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------
if u odin ni2 and still shows nk2 then it probably didnt work.. either way, you need to wait until someone puts out the kernal for nk2 or else u might as well stay on nk2 or just go back to ncg root install ss then flash rom of choice and then kernal of choice lol. im content where im at especially when theres no big changes at all
been waiting for this just for the SD card fix ever since the verizon tech's told me it was coming, hopefully they really did fix it.
Now the anxious waiting for it to get posted since I can't do OTA from Canada.
I will wait for it to be rootable, as I'm not willing to lose that.
That said, I've been waiting to be able to use OpenVPN over 4G/3G since I got the phone, so if this fixes the issue, it's definitely worth the update for me. I still can't believe it's taken them this long to fix the freaking issue...

I too will also likely skip this until Lollipop, and then I will only upgrade to Lollipop if/when it is launched/rootable.

It won't be rootable, as the past 2 updates haven't been rootable. As long as you can downgrade to NCG, that's your root method right there. You won't be able to root the new updates as they stand.
Chainfire's Super Su survival mode works great on new update.

Hey everyone,
So I found online that the AT&T update to Marshmellow started on 2-8-16. I haven't been able to find anything officially from AT&T but apperently the version is H81020n and its 971 MB. Has anyone gotten the update yet?
Just saw this thread and figured I'd check. Went into the update center and notification popped up for new 950mb update. Must be it cause I was already on 10o. Didn't even have to use LG Bridge like the other carrier guys were doing.
Will post back with an update once completed

not possible. you can't modify the system files and boot without a modified kernel. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, so no kernels, thus no root.
if you root MM your phone will just loop without the custom kernel.

That's the missing piece I needed to understand. Thanks! Sucks, but thanks! :highfive:
got it! looks good to me - so far...
I upgraded early yesterday morning and my phone has been hot almost all the time!! The battery life is way worse than prior to the upgrade. I have cleaned out all my junk files and cache rebooted and recharged a few times. Also optimized my apps a few times. I just picked up my phone after 2 hours of no use and it was warm and the battery is draining at a faster rate than with Lollipop... Anybody else experiencing this?
Awesome, glad the update is out....I haven't done the update just yet...waiting to see if we hear anything about root. I'm wondering if we are still able to downgrade via TOT method if need be...if that's the case then i'll update ASAP. I actually have heard that there are some battery issues with the update, but again I'm not on 6.0 yet so I can't tell you from my experience.

Anyone know where I can find the stock recovery image? I tried flashing the one from Shakalaka's megadownload page, but it won't boot on my Ultra. Just gives me the Android Gear Error image. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

I am on mobile so can't get to it, but it is on Shakala's megadownload page. The same page where you download TWRP. It is in the WW folder. I believe you can find a link to the megadownload page in the root thread on page 6 or 7.

Nothing yet. Unless a user grabbed it, saved it, and wants to share it we are at the mercy of ASUS.

Did you have any noticable errors or issues after flashing? Also assuming you were rooted before, were you able to regain root access?

Here ya go guys sorry for the delay . Keep in mind I was rooted with twrp installed. After I flashed this my root was lost and stock recovery overwrote the twrp. I have been unable to flash twrp again and achievement with 7.0. I do notice 7.0 is way faster than marshmallow. Haven't really seen any bugs yet but keep in mind this is my second device .
All you want to do to flash this is put the file on the root of your internal memory and restart the device .you will get a notification to install the update . Its That simple

Thanks man. Giving it a shot now. I wonder if we would need Shaka to compile us a new TWRP.
Okay loaded and working good so far. No initial errors. I wanted a fresh load so I downloaded the update file and placed it on my external SD. Then I booted into boot loader and fastboot flashed the stock recovery. Next I booted into stock recovery. Selected factory reset, and then apply update from SD. I selected the update and it installed perfectly. Booted into nougat without errors.

Downloading
Did the update fix the low call volume issue in Marshmallow?
How about Battery, were there any changes?
Got to work
Thanks a bunch you guys
Now lets all wait for the root update
I have reached out to Shakalaca on the ASUS forums about compiling TWRP for nougat. He responded so hopefully in a few days.
