Hello, my goal is to get Miracast working on my phone and from what i read, rooting is the only way to do this. Can anyone confirm that adding a line to the buildprop does indeed make miracast work? This is really the only reason i need to root and if i do root, i would stay stock. If i decide to root, am i correct in assuming that i could no longer accept ota updates then? If that is the case, do you know what forum thread i would use to get the latest updates? Thanks in advance.

Can't answer you're Miracast question, but to root: flash SuperSU 2.79 SR3 in TWRP.

Will this work with the Google store edition?

Yup, it's only compatible with the Google store edition.
So, if I'm rooted than i won't be able to take a ota update then?
If that's the case, do you know the thread where i could flash a safe update?

Also, if i decide to root, is there a step by step guide to get this done, it's been quite a few years since i last rooted a phone and don't want to screw it up, thanks.

Got my phone rooted, do you know the thread where i could flash a safe update without losing root?

You can go to the Google android ota page, directions are there to adb side load it. You will loose root, I don't beliece you can update and keep root.

In the past i have rooted other phones without wiping the phone, however, from looking at the root methods for the Verizon GS3 It looks as though you have to flash a rom in the process of rooting it. Is it possible to root the Verizon GS3 without wiping data?

So If i flash the stock rooted rom using this method once the phone turns back on i will not notice anything has changed other than it now having root?

Yep, that's how it was for me. I was worried I would lose my data too, but I was pleasently surprised.

Since your not changing roms to a custom one but instead going stock to stock modded, you can dirty flash and you will be fine.
A dirty flash you don't loose your data.
Using the "Root66" method in the Verizon Development forum does not require a wiping of user/application data.
Not the first screen shot of Verizon saying they will unlock the bootloader, and this is one of a few places I can post.

Just flash another superuser.zip via recovery then you'll got it.
Try the latest SuperSU. Get the flashable version.

Yeah..
Finally, I did it. Thank you guys all, especially "indrawib".
And I also have one more thing to ask, everytime the phone runs an app which needs the root right, a notice will shows, then I have to touch the button on the right (as the attached picture), it's quite inconvenient. Is it normal, guys ?
Yeah it's normal. If you want supersu not to ask for permission again than you should change supersu setting from prompt to grant.
Enjoy your rooted butterfly.

Anyone else get this update? I'm on sprint. Also, I haven't installed it yet, I presume I need to flash the stock recovery if I choose to take the update

Mmmmh htc did not plan to update the A9 now so maybe it's an update late of MM. But still sense 7.0

The only thing I've noticed is that that amoled saturation controls have been brought back
same here, i'm on sprint. is it ok to flash being deodex?
Not sure. I haven't got too deep into flashing on this phone, as there's not a heck of a lot to flash. Typically no, you would need to be stock odex and stock recovery to take an ota
Sent from my 2PQ93 using Tapatalk
me too , i have this update 2 days ago , only changes i noticed :
* my hand free stopped working with my htc a9 and now its back again
*have new app called ""HTC VIP" , but its not working in my country
@k2buckley yeah, what a shame :/ i guess i'll have to wait and see what's new with this ota. it was a pain in the arse to get all things done yet i have some issues.
I'm getting that annoying notification about the system update. I'm just rooted with twrp. What would be the best way to update?

Have a look in Post TWRP Recovery #2
chapter 8,9 and 10.
NB: Download and save the ota in your sd card (you'll find it in /data/data/com.htc.updater). You could share it for XDA members...
Cheers
was about to ask the question where i could find it, thanks kho
any feedback abt this ota?
Only thing I've noticed is we have an option for the fingerprint scanner to wake the screen and use it as a home button.
it was already there. i think it's just some improvements and bug fixes.
My based band ends with OC4 plus it have secure lock on can anybody lead me to the right direction.

A simple Google search for:
"How to root (your model number and firmware)"
Should give you what you're looking for.

That's because there is absolutely no way to root OC4 because it has a locked bootloader that can't be unlocked. There is no way to get around the locked bootloader and no one is probably ever gonna figure out a hack to unlock the bootloader so you can give up on trying to root the device or flash custom recovery.
I can certainly tell you that it's pointless for you to ask or make more posts here or anywhere else because you are chasing your tail. Developers have been trying to figure out how to unlock or bypass the Samsung locked bootloaders for years and no one has even gotten close. Don't waste your time continuing ask.

You aren't giving me all the digits but I assume you are using C567. I don't believe so and if I need can always re-root and flash again.

I just checked and my device is not rooted anymore. You would need to go through the root process again. I suggest the rebranding instructions post.
