Hello, this is my first post here haha
I've been thinking about rooting my OnePlus 3T and then i remembered how i did it with the Galaxy Y.
I remember rooting my Samsung Galaxy Y with an update package. Is there anything like that available for the OnePlus 3T?
It would be much easier to just do an update than flashing a custom recovery like TWRP.
Thanks in advance
Edit: I know how to root my phone but i'm looking for an easier method.

I have a straight talk galaxy s3 (sch-s968c) and have no plans to upgrade it. i really like this phone. i got a samsung gear live as a gift and like it as well. after wading through forums for the last two weeks, i have managed to root my phone. now i just need simple directions on how to get the android updated to 4.3 or 4.4. either one is fine for my needs. i tried to follow some forum threads on how to do this, but they are usually too vague for me to accomplish it. help. please.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. The best place to get help is the device's specific forum here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att. They are the experts on your device. Your device is a variant of the S3 so you may have to work a little to find the answers you're looking for. But here are some tips:
You can usually find stock firmware for Samsung devices at Samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com. They are flashable in Odin. Always backup first, off your device, before using Odin
There may or may not be a root method for 4.3 or 4.4. Root exploits are generally patched with each new android version. Check in the forum I linked you to.
Don't be afraid to ask questions in the threads you've found. They are the experts. At XDA Assist we have good overall general knowledge but may not have knowledge specific to your device.
Good luck!

Hi,
first post on this forum -> hope this is the right section, sorry if it isn't.
So I'm here because I have a problem regarding the building process of AOSP for the sony XA2
I'm following those steps : developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/guides/aosp-build-instructions/build-aosp-nougat-8-1-oreo-4-4
(adding https for opening)
The problem appears on step 4, part 4 : I do not have the repo_update.sh
So first question very simple, does anyone has it ? what am I missing.
Although I'm not especially new to development, I found it on the repo (don't know why it does not come still -> I suppose it's not in the manifest, yet why is it suppose to be in the tutorial ?)
The next question are regarding my newbie state in android development / flashing / OS
Cause next I would need to flash the boot.img vendor etc . . . I did not find nowhere the explanation of where to find those and I'm kind of frustrated of finding absolutely nothing EXPLICIT on the matter.
So could someone point me to a newbie tutorial / explanation please ? or directly explain it to me if it's not too long.
For the record, I understood what those images are, I just don't know where to find them.
ok It's more a general confusion due to the fact that I'm new to Android than anything else still, I need answers
Thank you for your responses in advance.

Ok truth is, I think something is wrong with my system, I have a linux 17 maybe it's not the right one to do this, I tried with a 'normal' 16.04, I went further, have other problems, but I'm finding solutions on the forums.
Precisely in the links you gave me so thanks for answering the questions that I did not have time to ask ^^
Thank you for your help, have a nice day.
Hello, I downloaded a firmeware for Android Oreo for a Samsung Galaxy S7 (AT&T) SM-G930A from an XDA forum and while flashing with Oding version 3.13 my phone got stuck in a boot loop and told me to use the Emergency Mode in smart switch which I can't use because somehow I can't see my S/N (serial number) and I need it to proceed, Anyone has an idea or a way to help me please? I've been here for hours trying to do something. :crying::crying::crying:

What is the procedure for switching over? I currently have SUPERLIGHT Rom on 4.4.2 but some guides said I should be on stock firmware.
Does that mean I should be on I535VRUDNE1 4.4.2 (2014 June)?

You don't need to be in the stock Firmware. Your best bet to switch over is to ask for some member guidance within the following General Q&A Magisk thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3432382
I never switched before and I can only provide a best guess but, if I did want to switch, that would be the place I would ask.
Good Luck!

Well I think it won't work because the Verizon Galaxy S3 has a locked bootloader.
After hours of reading and testing, it seems that because we only have Safestrap (which for some reason errors/fails when I flash Magisk in Safestrap recovery) we can't successfully flash Magisk.
I think we need real TWRP for it to work.
*edit: Scratch that, it really won't work because Magisk requires Android 5.0 and above.... Is that possible on the Galaxy S3?
Confirm this on the Magisk thread before taking my word for it...
I believe that Starting from Magisk v16.7, it began to require only a min of Android 4.1 (JellyBean).
