Att new software update - LG Optimus G Pro

Woke up this morning to notification of new software update from att. I'm already on the official KK update from couple of months ago. Anybody else get this? What is the update?

http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB420581&cv=820

From the above link...
"Update to android 4.4, including improved security".
So what does this mean? What exactly in 4.4 has been updated? What security updates? Anyone know?

Thanks for reply rom
But i actually meant did anyone know specifically the differences much like Andy's question

The update forced on my phone, crashed it because I had a custom recovery, so I had to flash back to. Jelly Bean and now I can't obtain root after re-updating.

Have you tried it on a device thats had the new ota update installed?
Also I thought there was a security concern with the kingo root method, something about it being from China and contains malwares that sends files back to its home server, supposedly these files are the ones necessary to clone the device.

download the freegee app from the play store and it'll install a recovery for you. Either clockworkmod or twrp

I still don't think that it's a problem with you being rooted. It is most likely that you have edited/removed system files that are required for the update to install.
Try updating by using a full firmware, downloaded from the Huawei website, and doing a local update with that file. You shouldn't have any problems with updating then.
And also put the update in the internal storage instead of the sdcard, i know alot of ppl had problem updating from sdcard.

Can you give more information? What firmware do you currently have on your phone? And what are you updating to?
I can't understand that all updates are failing. There must be something that is preventing this. Either you have the wrong firmware downloaded, or the download is corrupt, or something isn't right.

F240K OTA again

Just received the OTA... After download cannot install due to the device been rooted.
Any idea how to bypass the root check or install?
You can try this app -
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amphoras.hidemyroot
But I think it will not work, you can trick some apps but can't trick the OTG (OS).
I think I've tried everything to hide root. I've even unrooted and it still won't update. You have to reflash the stock rom to get it to update OTA. If only someone knew where it's downloading to so that we can extract and manually update.

Software update SWV10q changelog

Anyone have any idea what this update brings to the phone? It was pushed to my phone this morning and I dont know if i should update it or not. I highly doubt that it is lollipop however i want to know if it is safe to install the OTA and not lose functionality of exposed, rooted permissions, etc...
i don't think it's android L. see changelog here.

It's the for inflight text.
Did you get a notification on your phone about update or an announcement on t mobile's website? I haven't seen any posts about update nor customer service has any knowledge of it.
I just got an OTA for the update. you can always use LG's update tool to upgrade your software version. I was actually presented with another update this morning. I have no idea what it is. it does however bring the software from swv10q to KVT49L. It is still android 4.4.2 FYI
Is the update rootable (required for SD fix)?
Is there anyway to force this update? I'm on 10M stock
I havent gotten the notice and really am in no hurry to hook it up to the pc or force update right now. Has anyone actually updated to this and aside from the minor changelog were there any changes to the bootloader or anything?

purpledrake is blocked.. not sure if root will stick thru OTA or if manual updating will be required.
bootloader has been updated with the same changes the other G3 "pre-L" updates had (nothing noticeable to end users).
downgrading is NOT blocked or anything.
oh and to OP and others.. it's 10R.. not 10Q

So if stump was blocked through last update a drake is blocked now what are the options to regain root? By bootloader was updated does that mean it is now locked and will require bump?

Taking the OTA while already being rooted may allow root to stick through the update process... I cannot confirm that yet and we will need to wait for other users to report back. Your other options are not taking the OTA at all and instead using TWRP to manually update to 10R partition by partition (flashing modem, boot and system).. OR downgrading back to 10C/10M and continue using that. There most likely will not be an updated LG root in the immediate future... no reason to waste a bug when downgrading is still possible... every single G3 and other flagship LG device has root with some firmware version. Perhaps we'll see a new android-wide 4.4.x bug that would work for all.
As for bootloader... no we don't need bump.. we have an unlocked device. Update is not related to a lock.

not that I know of. easiest way will be to just dump the 10R kdz when it comes out and flash the partitions manually in TWRP. I'll probably make a secure flashable bootloader update zip.. and I'll have have the boot, modem and all the other partitions (minus system), as always, up on my codefire folder. Someone else will have to upload/mirror system for the masses.

[Q] System update HELP!

Hey XDA community,
i have recently rooted my HTC Desire 816/Virgin mobile
Currently running stock ROM
Adroid version: 4.4.2
HTC Sense version: 6.0
Software Version: 1.13.652.1
I keep getting the software update pop up for version 1.50.652.3 which i previously had before rooting
as i try update it the update is aborted
Is there anyway that i can update it and also keep my root access?
Ive tried many different ROMs although most of them seem to be inefficient as either the calling, data, or text messaging doesn't work, i would rather stick to the stock ROM until fully functional ROMs are out there.
only thing your suppose to do is just install the root,relock bootloader and flash recovery hope will work won't get aborted.....

Open SuperSU and choose unroot, flash the stock recovery, relock the bootloader and then take the update.
Then re-root the same way you did the first time.

I was simply telling them to use Google, I don't see were anything rude was said in that post. It was only 3 words, and 2 of them were Google...
But just because this is a Q&A thread, doesn't mean they should disregard any other way of getting information themselves.
Why should someone else have to take time out if there day to get the link, and give it to this person, when as I said, they can Google it.
But with that being said, I'm sorry you saw rudeness in those 3 words, next time I'll try to be more considerate.

If you want to root select flash zip and UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip.
Just install TWRP and everything will be super easy and safe.
Through Odin. https://dl.twrp.me/t03g/twrp-3.0.2-0-t03g.img.tar
But now that you are deleting data (if you are) I recommend just flashing either Eclipse v9 (That is Touchwiz KitKat) or Nougat AOSP based ROM Cyanogenmod 14.1. Samsung unchanged is very outdated and bad in 2016.

Just go to TWRP and everything will be super easy then. I'll guide you. First make a backup in TWRP. Only of EFS since the rest is already broken now. You actually won't lose your pictures and movies, just apps and settings. Now do you want ROM that is perfectly stable Samsung TouchWiz Android 4.4 like you had before (this is already rooted ). Or do you want Android 5.1 AOSP, which is something totally different? (I heard that on is the best AOSP for N7100)? Myself I am on AOSP.

Actually, you can go to Android 7.1. But that is BETA version, 5.1 is stable. I think users with 7.1 are facing random reboots.
