assuming you didn't install twrp

So I just got my G7 today and did a quick setup during which it installed an OTA and then I went ahead and installed TWRP and Magisk. Shortly afterwards I get a notification that another OTA is available but now it won't install (as expected). Because I installed Magisk after TWRP I don't have a 'clean' boot image to rollback to in order to get the OTA - is the only option to reflash back to stock and start again but install Magisk before TWRP this time or is there another option?

Haven't done anything to it yet

So you cannot have twrp as recovery at all for this?
I also cannot get it's info to magisk tap uninstall restore images but twrp is my recovery the ota downloads then fails during install anyone have a flashable version of the latest Moto g7 power retus zip that can flash in twrp? I assume it could be done.

Or if someone has stock recovery.zip for Moto g7 power retus cause the directions given sound like it shouldn't matter if you have twrp or not but if that's it how can I flash stock recovery.zip for now take the ota then I wait til I get home to reroot sounds like only way of you've installed twrp as recovery

[Q] Can you get root without custom recovery so that you can update with OTAs?

I followed this guide to get root on 5.0.1, but I didn't realize it makes updating a pain. I saw that this user's signature says he's running stock root, but I haven't been able to find a guide for doing so on Lollipop, only using towelroot on KitKat. The only thing I use the recovery for is getting root, so I don't care about keeping CWM if there's another way. Is there some way I can keep root and also use OTA updates?
If you are rooted and have a custom recovery, don't download the OTA within the tablet. Follow this thread, download desired FULL OTA Zip (WiFi or LTE) and latest SuperSu.zip. Flash OTA (≈700MB ) and then SuperSu. Won't loose custom recovery or root.

You won't be able to successfully flash the UPDATE .zip file (~94MB) on a rooted (read: modified) Lollipop version.
Recovery version is irrelevant.
You need the FULL 2.2 rom (already found above , ~731MB), flash it in your current custom recovery and re-root by flashing SuperSU again.

From that, I understand that even if you have stock recovery, by being rooted, OTA wont work on you.
Just for the fact of being rooted.

Unable to Flash the Latest Incremental OTA ZNH2KAS254

Hi,
I was on a rooted Oneplus One having the TWRP recovery. I got the notification for the latest Incremental OTA ZNH2KAS254 update. I know that its not possible to install this incremental update if you are rooted and are using TWRP as your recovery. I read some of the posts and it was suggested there to unroot the phone, install the stock recovery and then try to install the OTA. I downloaded the stock cyanogen recovery and flashed it, which removed the TWRP recovery. I then unrooted my phone using the option in the SuperSU app.
Now i have an OPO which is having stock recovery and is unrooted. When i try to install this incremental update, i am not able to get through. The update goes through the installation process and ends up booting in the stock recovery with an exclamation mark on the cyanogen robot. I then decided to factory reset the OPO completely by wiping everything that was there on the phone.
Even then i am not able to install the incremental OTA and land up with the same error as mentioned above.
What am i doing wrong? Could someone please help and let me know how to get this incremental update installed? I would also like to install TWRP and root the device once i am done installing the incremental OTA.
Cheers,
Gokul
You're in the OPX section. You have OnePlus One, right?
A mod can move it?
If you are on Oxygen OS, I think you have to flash the full rom zip disponible here :

If Cyanogen, I don't know.

Saurav,
Thanks for your message.
Since i do not have TWRP installed, i believe i would have to flash the latest signed zip using ADB. Am i right?
Secondly, would it be possible for me to flash the TWRP zip using stock recovery?

New OTA update?

I got notification of a new OTA 72MB update. Any one else get it? I searched online and saw no info on it. It seems to include a new modem img. Anyone updated? Any ideas on how to make a flashable zip? I was thinking I could by simply editing the updater script of the OTA...
I have been looking for info on this as well. I don't want to lose root just to see what it is. I will wait for someone to confirm.
Here's the update file from the Metro PCS OTA and it does indeed include a new radio img...someome please make this flashable!

Installed the update and it has a newer security patch number (7/1/16) and the build number is 20c.
Do you guys think that the original Stylo will have Android N since LG supports their phones for 18 months?

There is no flashable zip. It needs to be flashable to update through TWRP.
Also, he lost root and was unable to get root back.

I've been looking at it too. I tried to flash the radio.img through fastboot but no dice. When looking at the script I noticed that it replaces quite a few files.(the OTA will overide them to change back to stock). I wonder if there's any system enhancements other than the modem)

about your loss root, maybe you have slow internet connection when you updated it. sorry if i wrong bro..
MetroPCS LG stylo Android version MS63120C isn't rootable through Kingroot anymore if you take the latest update but no worries you don't need kingroot anymore. Place the TWRP recovery.img file in the same directory as ADB and Fastboot and take the SU zip file on your external SD card -Click anywhere on the blank white space in that folder - Now press your Shift key + right click your mouse - In the menu that comes up select "Open command window here" option - In the command window type "adb devices" - then go to your cell and accept the key and then type "adb reboot bootloader" - your cell should restart and you'll be in fastboot. Now in the command window type "fastboot boot recovery.img". You should now be in TWRP recovery one your cell. Now on your cell while in TWRP recovery select "Install" then navigate to your external SD card and select the SU zip file and install it. Now like myself you'll have root again. Then download and install fashify and flash the recovery.img to install twrp
If you don't have a PC to root Marshmallow on this device, you're screwed.

No need to wipe recovery. Flash stock recovery on top of TWRP. It will automatically be replaced.
If he is rooted he won't be able to update. OTA updates require pure stock - stock recovery, stock kernel, and an unmodified system. This means no root, xposed, or any other changes to the system including build.prop edits.

You need not relock the bootloader. I have flashed system updates with stock recovery and unlocked bootloader.
Looks like you have correctly flashed the recovery. Once you get the red exclamation mark, keeping the volume up pressed, press the power button (I don't remember exactly, if it doesn't work, try the reverse).

No need to lock the bootloader, but if you were rooted as stated in your first post, you will the stock system and kernel. You can not update if ANY system files, kernel, or recovery are not FULL stock. Your best bet right now is to flash the stock ROM via fastboot, if you need the update.

The updater script checks the system, recovery and kernel. If they do not match what is expected (full stock), then the update will fail. I can't say it any more clearly, you need FULL STOCK, ie no modifications to system files (xposed, added or deleted system apps, build.prop edits, root, custom recovery). If you have done any of this, even one, the update will fail. Flash the stock ROM via fastboot.

You should. But I think it can be done right after flashing stock ROM also.
After getting these brutal update messages every few minutes on Android 6.0 and not being to update because of root and TWRP, rather than going back to stock, I finally cracked and bit the bullet yesterday and installed Lineage. I am now on Android 7.1.2 with the April security update, and going forward new OS and security updates will be simple updates; in fact the May update as noted by the OP is due this week, and I can either install it OTA from Lineage with a press of a button, or via TWRP if I so desire . I understand others don't want to install a custom ROM for various reasons, but for me it was a no-brainer.

[CAPTURED OTA] September security patch (NPJS25.93-14-10)

Motorola started rolling out September security patch which, you know, fixes Blueborn vulnerability. But instead of starting in India or other Moto's favorite country, they stated rolling it out in Latin America!
Changes:
-September security patch
-Bug fixes

Unlikely - the OTA would possibly fail and also leave you in a TWRP soft bootloop unless you booted to bootloader and then selected 'Start' to boot to system.
As this OTA will only flash on NPJS25.93-14-8 systems (looking at the updater script), the easiest way would be to use the NPJS25.93-14-8 stock ROM to revert to a fully stock device. Of course, this will remove root and TWRP on your device, but OTAs require a clean, unmodified device to work from.
Assuming you are currently on NPJS25.93-14-8 and were fully updated before flashing TWRP and rooting, you may be able to use the following flashing commands with the fastboot stock ROM to revert to stock without affecting your data. These commands are edited assuming your GPT and bootloader are the same patch level as NPJS25.93-14-8. As always, back up your data in case you need to factory reset, and also this depends on your device being formally and fully updated to NPJS25.93-14-8 previously, if not formally updated (including bootloader to B1:06), you may run into issues including a hard brick. If you are not sure, ignore the following flashing commands and fully flash the NPJS25.93-14-8 stock ROM as per in the linked post. Or wait for the TWRP flashable of the NPJS25.93-14-10 system ROM (which only flashes the system side of the build).
Code:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
The stock ROM for the NPJS25.93-14-8 build is here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
A formally updated system to NPJS25.93-14-8 should include:
Bootloader version at B1:06.
Modem version ending in 62.01R.
Security patch at 1 June 2017.
After this, you should be able to update to NPJS25.93-14-10 via OTA. Needless to say, after you update via OTA, it therefore becomes risky to flash the June 2017 stock ROM or any older ROMs. As we've seen previously, downgrading and then attempting to update via OTA runs a high risk of hard bricking, and it may be the case that the June 2017 blankflash we have no longer works once updated to September 2017. Be careful. If you need to revert back to stock after flashing the September 2017 OTA, wait for the NPJS25.93-14-10 stock ROM.
EDIT - I saw from your previous posts asking about the NPJ25.93-14-8.1 update. If you've updated from NPJ25.93-14 to NPJS25.93-14-8.1, you likely won't be able to flash this update anyway as the expected build is different to what the NPJS25.93-14-10 update is expecting.
For NPJ25.93-14-8.1:
Code:
Package expects build thumbprint of 7.0/NPJ25.93-14-8.1/2:user/release-keys or 7.0/NPJ25.93-14/16:user/release-keys
For NPJS25.93-14-10:
Code:
Package expects build thumbprint of 7.0/NPJS25.93-14-10/10:user/release-keys or 7.0/NPJS25.93-14-8/8:user/release-keys

Similar steps should apply to you both - verify that you have NPJS25.93-14-8 fully updated on your device (e.g. bootloader is version B1:06) and everything is stock and not modified - so no TWRP, root, or custom logo.bin for example. Your recovery should also be the same version that came with the NPJS25.93-14-8 stock ROM/OTA update. Having an unlocked bootloader is not a problem, though if it is unlocked, you should be seeing the unlocked bootloader warning when you boot (from a stock logo.bin).
1)Download the OTA update to your device, likely it'll be in the Downloads folder.
2)Follow these instructions to get to the stock recovery:https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72981796&postcount=58
3)Once in the stock recovery, select the 'Apply update from SD card' command with the volume keys, press power to use the command.
4)Navigate to your Download folder and find the update.
5)Press power whilst the update is selected to install.
5a)If there's an issue with mounting internal memory, you may try the 'Mount /system' command and attempt to re-select your update.
6)Once the update is finished, you may wish to 'Wipe cache' from the recovery menu. You do not have to factory reset.
7)Once done, you can choose to reboot.
If you choose, you can wait for the OTA update to arrive, which should automate the process for you.
As always, once you've updated, it becomes very risky to downgrade. I'd suggest not to downgrade from the September 2017 stock update if you can (with an older stock ROM), or if you really want to, do not update via OTA. Use an updated stock ROM (Sept 2017 fastboot ROM, which currently we don't have yet) to update if you've downgraded.
Thanks! Applied successfully on my Moto G4 XT1624. Working great as always.

You need full stock setup for flashing via an OTA, else it'll fail — that includes recovery, kernel and the ROM. In addition, you can update only a full stock ROM through fastboot, not an OTA.

If you wish to update and try to save your data (provided you were on an earlier stock Motorola build), have a look at the flashing commands in this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73970028&postcount=251 Else, you'll have to use the flashing commands in the main thread, which will wipe your data, so back up as required. You do not have to relock your bootloader if you do not wish to.
