Hi someone can share a easy way to make small ota update when the system got twrp, unlocked bootloader and root access ? I feel bored to go to full stock b131 each time and now with nougat I can add the rollback step...
I hope there is a best way to do this, maybe with stock recovery.img flashed for the update ?
Thanks :highfive:

Hi,
I will be getting my new OPO in the next few days (very excited!) my question is; If i unlock the booloader and root the phone but NOT flash a custom rom will i still receive the OTA updates from Cyanogen?
There's a few rooted apps i like to use and stock CM11S will be the perfect rom for me.
Thanks
Levy

Yes you will rooting does not affect OTS updates, the only thing is that after each OTA you will have to flash the SU zip again to get back root. The only thing that will mess up OTS is if you play with system files ( forum Masters correct me if i'm wrong here ). Make a backup before you do anything and you should be good. Have fun.

Yeah this is all true
Download the SuperSU zip to your phone and be ready to flash it after the ota installs

Hello I have a question.. I have the LG G3 VS98524B stock rom with root permission and twrp auto recovery installed and my current rom and data completely backed up. My question: is it possible to update from 5.0 to 5.1 without looking root and twrp ? The reason I'm asking is because I keep recieving notifications indicating that there is a new update available ota , I really would like to accept the update as it addresses a few bugs the G3 is having,as a result of the 5.0 update, but I'm concerned about looking root and twrp. Can someone maybe explain how to do this? And also is if I will loose root and twrp either way can someone just explain how I would want to go about unrooting then updating to 5.1 and rerooting and installing twrp if that's possible? Simply put I just want the update without loosing root and twrp but if that can't be done than what ways are available for unrooting,Then update and root again and is rooting the same way I had originally even possible on new 5.1. If not what tools would do that ?. Or can I just unroot then update and then boot into twrp and restore root somehow ? Just not sure what to do and any help would be great thank you..
Updating should be fine. If not just re-root. Or just update it via a sideload on ADB or some****.
Ok thank you. Do you think there is a root solution available for 5.1 currently ? Also if I'm unable to update ota style and do need to un root will updating cause me to loose twrp cuz I thought it wipes your everthing as well as the boot loader? And if I recall there is no twrp available yet for lg g3 vs98535b witch is what it would be after the update ? One more thing sorry but if I recall correctly an OTA update won't install anyway if the stock rom has root right ? Cuz technically it's been modified right ?
Side loading via ADB style
Sorry everyone I meant to ask this in previous post how do you sideload and install an update through ADB does it involve a PC? And if so is there a way to accomplish that task without a PC unfortunately I don't have one at the moment.. Thanks!
You need a PC to force (sideload) anything to your phone.

You should be able to just push the new firmware onto the device and use the bootloader to flash it.
I'm currently on NXT-29C185B190 and I received update with NXT-29C185B1200, my phone is unlocked and rooted, I have flash fire installed and it recognized that update was downloaded.
My question is flash fire have big red huawei device warning, saying Huawei device is very easy to hard brick (also my mate 8 is my first locked bootloader phone) so is it safe to use flash fire ? or install update throught huawei system without losing root ?

Is this an EMUI update through the standard update menu in settings - updater?
The version seems a bit odd to me, the last update for C185 was B320, I wouldn't expect an official update to jump as high as that. Mind uploading a screenshot?
Anyway, as for actually updating, as long as you are running stock recovery (not TWRP) then it shouldn't be an issue. Just know that you WILL lose root after updating. And I'd strongly suggest making a data backup before the update.

Thanks for the help, I tried to user flash fire to keep my root but it failed to update, now I really think rooting huawei phone is more trouble than it worth as for what you said is version is typo
I'm currently on B190 and I got update to B200.
and yes the update is standard update from system updater
I have twrp installed so that means I can't update at all ?
Plz i want to know how to return to the normal situation after root and unlock bootloader in order to receibe update without problem

Well if you unlocked bootlader and rooted, it safe to say that you have TWRP installed, fire up SRKToolHuawei choose (2)install recovery then install stock recovery after that it reboots and then update using system updater from huawei.
PS: You will lose your root access and new to install TWRP then root again.

hello everyone,
i have S8+ with android 7 installed, not rooted and still didnt get any OTA for either oreo or Pie, so i decided to do it manually but i wanna make sure of the steps since it's been a while for me not flashing anything.
first thing i should know is that this update is going to wipe my phone due to the bootloader update
and about that bootloader update, should i flash pie bootloader first or just flash a stock ROM with odin that includes bootloader file ?
any help with this issue is much appreciated

If you are going to update with Odin flash full firmware. ( 4 files )
As for wiping your phone when you unzip the downloaded firmware there will be 2 CSC files.
CSC - Clean install will wipe your data ( same as factory reset )
Home CSC - Dirty install should keep your data
Always do a backup before doing anything.
Note: Make sure after you upgrade your firmware to update your apps so that they will be comparable with new firmware.
Hi guys,
Some Time ago I unlocked m'y bootloader to Root it and install TWRP but I was wondering if there is a way for getting OTA After unlocking BL.
I know that we can update using the zip and putting it in the root of sdcard but I wanted to know if we could get updates back by flashing a stock partition (like persist) or anything else that could work.
I also tried to lock the bootloader but it still wasn't receiving OTA.
I hope that someone has the solution
Thanks in advance

Don't think so, as I believe OTA's are not pushed to devices that are registered as unlocked by ASUS (which actually makes sense if you think about it)..
I just removed root, update manual to new FW and root again. It is not that much work.
