About OTA updates now that root has been released.

Hey all,
I immediately blocked any OTA updates since I got my G4 in anticipation for root.
I have three questions
Do the AT&T OTA updates have that anti-rollback feature? I didn't see it confirmed in the thread regarding the anti-rollback but I'm not sure if the info is current.
Is the latest OTA for AT&T the 10g version? Should I enable OTA on my LG G4 now to get it prior to rooting?
Thanks.

So far as i know..no anti-rollback features..
As stated of some members here, latest ota updates doesn't affect rooting...for now

10g is the latest as of yesterday (before I rooted and blocked OTA). If you absolutely can't wait for root, then unfreeze the update apps and get the 10g OTA. If you're on 10e, there's a strong likelihood that you will softbrick your phone if you try to flash the rooted system.img (at least a couple people already did). If you can wait a couple of weeks, just hang tight and wait for codefire to release their one-click unroot since we still don't know about rolling back the bootloader or future unlockability of the 10g bootloader.

I'm on 10g and rooted. I have no intention of running a non stock rom on this device, so blocking updated with Tit back up now, removing bloat and coasting with what I've Got till we find out about a method for custom recoverys yet.

Could someone link me to the thread on how to disable the OTA function? I remember seeing it, but can't find it.

Can you or someone else please list the app(s) that need to be frozen in order to block updates? Thanks in advance.

Need help downgrading.

Hello. I'm kinda a noob (i admit).
I'm going to root my G5 and by reading the threads i figured out that i have to downgrade to 20a in order to root my phone ( im running on 20c currently).
Do i have to downgrade? If yes, how?
I know i have to use "LG Up" but i couldn't find a good place for downloading the 20a flashable zip.
Thanks.

Yes, you must downgrade to 20A to root and install TWRP.
Here's the link for 20A:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g5/development/stock-h830-20a-rom-flashable-zips-imgs-t3511294
Download the 20A kdz from that link and install using LG UP. Once you're running 20A, use the following link to install TWRP and root:

nope. it will stay locked. best way is to have it unlocked by TMO or some 3rd party unlocking services. Mine is sim locked too.

Rollback H830 20i to 20a?

Can I downgrade from h830 20i to 20a?

I have the same question as you. Do you have the answer?

Yes, you can rollback from 20i to 20a. You have to flash the 20a kdz from Autoprime's 20a thread using LG UP.
You shall find the instructions there.... https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...ock-h830-20a-rom-flashable-zips-imgs-t3511294

You're in the wrong forum. H901 is the T-Mobile version, they released Nougat on July 19th.

Do the MM update by downloading from Sammobile.
Don't screw around with OTA updates. . . . too much chance of an error.

It seems your phone is a little different due to the bootloader.
I did find this though:
https://www.techandios.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-edge-sm-n915a-f-to-be-replaced-by-a/amp/
Do a little research on the web and on this board.
You'll probably find some good answers.
