My device OP 3 is rooted with twrp and I have received update for oxygen 3.2.4 but one note appears saying that - Root detected downloading full upgrade device will be unrooted
If I upgrade and the device unroots will I loose all the data such as apps msgs pictures videos app data contacts etc
No you won't lose any data. TWRP and xposed and root will all be gone though
Will the super su wipe out?
And why is 1.3gb heavy whereas others have got size of 26mb?
The incremental update (Small size) fails if your device is rooted, they check for changes in the /system folder. So you need the full zip (1.x GB). You have to reflash TWRP and su again. (And the other zip stuff like xposed). But no data of your apps will be removed.
U can't flash incremental updates via twrp, download the full zip and just dirty flash, wipe caches, I also wipe system for myself but I don't think u have to
Oxygen OSS 3.2.4
As 3.2.3 came out i flashed the normal OTA update with FlashFire from Play store, my twrp was gone but the update worked
After installing the Full Update on 3.2.4 none of my data was gone but i instandly reflashed supersu and xposed + wiped dalvik and cache

I'm just wondering why Sprint's ota updates don't require a data wipe, but flashing the stock ROM in a custom recovery needs the wipe? I installed cnexus's rooted stock on my phone and initially tried a dirty flash, but had problems, so I wiped and did a clean install and all is good. My wife's phone is being prompted for the ota and I want to update her but I'd prefer not to have the Knox bootloader. I would simply update her phone as I did mine, but she'll kill me if I wiped her data. So, why can the ota install without the data wipe but the (essentially) same ROM installed manually can't? Anybody know?
An OTA just adds new file, a rom overwrites the entire system, that's why a full wipe is always recommended. I think there is a thread somewhere here that has flashable OTAs though. It sounds like she is rooted, so why don't you use a backup app like titanium?
Titanium is great and you will never have to worry about losing data. Plus its good to clear out the phone every once and awhile to keep it running fresh.
Hi, is is possible after rooting to replace TWRP with the stock recovery, stay rooted and enjoy OTA updates.
Rooting is out of question, but besides the fact that 3.2.0 is still not available from the Oneplus website and it is hard to judge which unofficial source is trustworthy, I would prefer not to have to reroot and install xposed each time I flash a full image.
I am also interested in this.
Is this possible without wipe?
I guess root and xposed should be reinstalled even after OTA:

Thanks, but I know how to do that - aside from the fact that I would like to get my ROM from Oneplus or at least a dedicated XDA-dev thread, instead of some link in some forum. The question was if I can flash the original recovery to be able to receive OTA updates.
I'm not sure what I should do here and since my phone is now 98% restored, I hesitate to do anything else without some guidance.
Long story short:
Clean flash of CM13 - ate my battery
Clean flash of OOS 3.2.2 - killed TWRP and Root
Re-installed TWRP
Re-Rooted
Restored from nandroid backup but system couldn't be restored because it was read-only
Accidentally, then cleared the system cache and got "you have no OS warning"
Reflash of OOS 3.2.2 was unsuccessful, multiple times. I then flashed CM13 and it gave me OOS 3.2.2
I don't know how I recovered the OS but it is there - 3.2.2, and all of the data from the backup.
It's a miracle.
My problem:
I can't get the XPosed framework to install, even after trying to uninstall then re-install. TWRP says everything goes perfectly well. I clear Dalvik/Cache and reboot and the installer says the framework is not installed.
I had Xposed installed before all of this but now it won't install.
Note - I was able to flash another package (Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos) so it's not TWRP itself or that process.
Thoughts?
----------------------------------------
Edit - for those in the same predicament...this is fixed:
1) Re-flash OOS 3.22 - lost TWRP and root again
2) Flash TWRP
3) Flash SU
4) Flash Xposed Framework
So, here I am, I received OTA update from update application for Open beta 12 and the update failed, so I downloaded the rom on Oneplus.net tried to install it with TWRP from usb otg, now when I try to boot on system, I only see the two white dots rotating around the red dot for hours.
Did you wipe cache/dalvik after flashing? If not, dirty flash again and wipe.
Did you root after flashing? If so, what did you root with? (older versions of SuperSU will cause endless boot)
If all else fails, clean flash OB12 again.
I think recommended steps are
1. Factory reset
2. Flash open beta 12 firmware
3. Flash lineage 03/09/2017
4. GAPPS if required
5. wipe cache/dalvik
For me it worked without factory reset.

Otas will always fail with TWRP. Wipe system and reflash full rom. If that doesn't work, clean flash ( wipe data, system, dalvik, and cache) then flash system and restore data. Also use TWRP 3.0.4-1.
Need some help
Today I check if there was new updates for my system lineage 16. There was two new updates, on of 26-04 and another of 27-04. After choosing to update lineage 16 to the last version of 27-04 using the updater in settings, the system doesn't boot anymore and goes always to recovery twrp 3.2.3.
Tried to wipe dalvick and cache but with no effect.
Unfortunately I didn't do a backup before updating.
I noticed when the system was updating it simply rebooted itself without showing any information of update installed successfully.
What can I do to go back to previous version? Is there a way to reverse the update without installing again the ROM and lose my data and installed apps?
Before the update everything was working well.
The device is a Pocophone.
Thanks.
