If I relocked and unrooted my phone I'll be able to get the OTA update?

yes, but you also need to flash the stock recovery. after you get the OTA, you can unlock and install TWRP again.

No Im not sure if you can do that yet . As far as I know the JB update has only rolled out to CID_038 . Only way to find out is to revert to stock Rom and stock recovery and find out

Hi,
did you manage to install the update? I downloaded the update as well but when I try to install it goes into recovery starts the update and then after some time comes up with the red error triangle with the exclamation.
I had rooted my phone with a custom recovery and have got back to the stock ROM as I wanted the OTA update. I have the stock recovery flashed and the phone is relocked but still rooted.
I'd appreciate it if anyone has any idea why I cannot update.

are you sure? in the link below they say that you can update with root intact. if your correct then how can i remove root? is it a case of removing the SU application?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1670433
No .... relocking the bootloader is not necessary......unrooting is !
With rom you need
Stock rom (root is NOT stock)
Stock kernel
Stock recovery
Bootloader can stay unlocked
With ruu you need to lock the bootloader that's it.

What's the error on the backup ?

Need help

I have root'ed and bump'ed my phone. If I unroot it through the supersu app can I just update the phone through OTA?
I don't care if twrp is gone, I just don't want to end up with a bootloop.

No, you have to get rid of the recovery also.
So, to update phone via OTA you have to flash stock firmware.

can ota work unlocked bootloader

Does OTA updating work while bootloader is unlocked? Or does it not work only when rooted/custom recovery?

Having an unlocked bootloader does not interfere with accepting an ota, root, exposed , TWRP recovery and any other alteration will cause the ota to fail.

Thank you sir

You have to reflash stock. Root and TWRP will cause OTA updates to fail.

Why would you take a chance and end up hard bricked? I gotta bang my head against the wall as you already have TWRP installed and you can flash my nougat stock 7.1.1 rom which has the July 1st security update.

AFIK this is not a full firmware update.
It's a small incremental OTA update, it will fail to update a rooted firmware.

Correct, it won't update. Although I have twrp installed and not stock recovery so I don't know if that causes more issues. I didn't pull the stock recovery before flashing either so can't test with that.

So with the 6.2 update can it still be rooted? All the guides I have read are for 6.0 but nothing is said about 6.2
