ROM, kernel, and modem. you have to be completely stock to install the OTA. Why not just flash a system update from here? Root is usually included.

Hi,
I might sound dumb but will I be ablle to get OTA updates if I install custom recovery and root.

No. OTA updates require stock recovery. However, you can revert to stock recovery and unroot as you please. Also, you can flash OTA updates through TWRP once a flashable zip is made, except you have to download it and flash it manually, just like installing a custom ROM. Cheers.

I received the last update through OTA on a rooted Stock ROM with TWRP installed.
After the install was finished TWRP asked if I wanted to restore the root. All went smoothly.
To clarify.. I did not flash the ROM. I used the normal OTA update.

I believe you can on small point updates. The full update from 4.3 to 4.4 most likely won't work with a custom recovery.

you must have stock /system folder + stock recovery
you can be rooted, by if you delete some files in /system - you break your ota
new ota will be with new radio too
after ota super-su apk will be removed by the ota

i restored /system apps from sdcard before 4.3 ota and migrate very well from 4.2.2
The ota 4.3 update removed my root and Twrp. Hope 4.4 doesn't do the same. It's always a pain for me to restore root with my Windows 7 laptop. It keeps installing the wrong usb drivers which get in the way of the wugfresh toolkit access to the nexus 7. So it's no easy task for me.
I've rooted, installed TWRP, installed custom kernel but otherwise on stock KitKat. I just received an OTA update notice. Tried updating it and got stuck at TWRP, installed the stuck fix and it boots back into the rom fine.
How can I install the OTA update? Or get the latest stock rom to be installable via recovery?
I went back to the stock marshmallow rom (unrooted) on my D851 but can't install an OTA update because TWRP is still installed. How do I revert back to the stock recovery?
Hey guys, currently I'm on 12.1.2.0RJDMIMX with unlocked bootloader, rooted with magisk and TWRP installed. May I know the steps to update to the latest 12.5.1.0.RJDMIXM without losing data and root?
Back then when I was using OnePlus, the procedure to update while rooted was
Download latest update
Boot to TWRP
Flash Magisk Uninstaller ( not sure if this was necessary but did it anyways )
Flash the new update
Install latest Magisk
Reboot
Is the procedure same as for MIUI? Thanks in advance!
