Stupid question: How would I go about getting Nougat onto the Nokia N1? I'm about to pull the trigger on one of these tablets but would like to know first if there'd be a way of getting Android 7.0 on there. I'm a complete n00b when it comes to this stuff but I know if I want to do this I should get the Taiwan version of the tablet, which has Google Play Services, the Play Store, etc. Maybe even an unlocked bootloader.
I wasn't able to find a thread about Nougat on the N1. Forgive me if one existed somewhere.
The system maybe was EOS
End Of Service
I just run system update
But show cannot connect internet
Yikes, it seems I shouldn't get this tablet after all. Abandoned by both the OEM and community. I'll wait for something else I like. Thanks.

So, the other day I got the 5.0 OTA on my rooted 4.4.2, and I naively updated it, without knowing that:
1 - I'd loose root and my recovery
2 - There's no way to root 5.0
After two days of trying stuff, I finally understood what many people know, I suppose, but I couldn't see it written clearly anywhere, so I thought I'd share. You have to:
1 - Flash back 4.4.2
2 - Root 4.4.2
3 - Flash a custom recovery
4 - Flash a rooted 5.0 from custom recovery
I now have a rooted 5.0
Here. It's not very complicated to do, but maybe it's so obvious for people who know it that they never care to put it like this (I'm not complaining, I actually did find all the information I needed on XDA and learned a good deal of things about my phone on the way so it's cool).
You cant.

Sorry I lack experience so much with the forum that I posted without any content initially so you must have thought that I was asking for the solution. I get that you can't simply root 5.0, but you can actually get 5.0 rooted if your phone has 5.0 non rooted by switching to 4.4.2 first, which is really what people want to do when they ask that question. I have seen your answer before, and almost gave up trying, but I'm glad I insisted. Just saying "you can't" is just being deliberately unhelpful (or not knowing what you are talking about).

Yeah, there was only name of the thread and word "So"
So I thought you were looking for solution :laugh:
Some more information on how to get there:
To get 5.0 rooted, you need to:
- take note of which 5.0 version you have on your phone and check you can get the bumped image somewhere, if you want to have exactly the same at the end.
- update LG PC Suite or at least the Windows drivers for the G3? Honestly I'm not sure how important this is, since I was playing around for hours and I did that in the process, maybe it's necessary. It is necessary to have the drivers installed at least.
- find the 4.4.2 version of the ROM for your phone (mine was V10e-EUR-XX), versions are different for 16GB/32GB versions.
- flash it with Flashtool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089)
- root using your favourite tool (I used one I had on my PC, not sure which version but PurpleDrake should do: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/root-root-lg-g3-easily-purpledrake-lite-t2821000)
- find a TWRP image
- flash TWRP (I used this tutorial: http://www.phonearena.com/news/How-to-flash-a-custom-recovery-like-CWM-or-TWRP-on-Android_id53914)
- find the bumped version of 5.0 for your phone (mine is V20e-EUR-XX and I found it on this forum)
- flash it using TWRP
- start the phone and set it up (it should be rooted already)
- install the SuperSU binaries using TWRP
Fun and heavy Titanium Backup freezes ensue! My phone has now 80% battery left 8h after being disconnected from the charger this morning, as opposed to 60% after two hours just after installing the OTA update.
Note: this was done on the unlocked 16GB European D855 version I bought in the UK. Not sure about other versions!
Bonus: in order to improve my battery life, besides Titanium-Backup-freezing the hell of the LG bloatware (I think McAfee and LG Health are the main culprits) and some Google bloatware I don't use (Google Play Apps anyone?) I also disabled knock on by following the advice #8 in this tutorial: http://www.androidauthority.com/lg-g3-problems-517832/
I've read all about the problem with rooting the G3 Stock Lollipop Version.
But there is no info, where I can find out WHY it is how it is.
So, why is 5.0 actually unrootable? And will this change in future?

Ummm. Have you tried looking on XDA?
There was a BIG post with details. The technical part is here: link
No, this won't change. Restricting services to their context means that bug in almost any service won't be able to compromise entire system. That's a great security feature, actually.
Will we be able to get android 6 ( the one that nexus 6p will have )? Why is samsung pay sooo important? I mean android pay is the same thing and it will always work right? I bought the s6 on day one and have been waiting on some nice roms to root since then ( I know that there are a couple, but I want that LTE update to finish. I think it was bieng released in three or four sections). If I root now will I be able to get the latest updates as they come out? Or will I have to wait for the person making the rom to update that rom? Or do I have to do that flash to stock update then flash the rom back in everytime?
Kind of hard to read all your questions thrown together in a big paragraph like that, but i'll attempt to answer them.
Yes we'll probably get Android 6 Marshmallow.
Android Pay vs Samsung Pay http://www.androidcentral.com/whats-difference-between-android-pay-and-samsung-pay
Samsung pay most likely won't work if you trip Knox on your phone, but Android pay will.
if you root you won't get any more OTA updates, but if you unroot you can get them again.

to summarize android pay vs samsung pay: android pay is for paying with your phone ONLY at new card readers, and samsung pay works on essentially ALL card readers, even the old ones that you see at most stores.
I've also heard that neither app (here and here) will work going forward on rooted devices.

The google engineer's explanation makes sense. However, from what i've tested all you have to do is unroot temporarily and set up android pay and then reroot and it still works. It's just during the install process that they check if you are rooted.
My ATT locked, unrooted Note 4 (N910A) is stuck on Android 5.0.1 (....CU2COC6).
All attempts to update thru ATT's update function fail.
My suspicion is that I ran out of memory when it was time to do the next update after 5.0.1 and I have now missed several -- so many, in fact, that I can no longer even upgrade to the oldest version necessary to upgrade to 6.0.1.
I now have plenty of memory.
I went to the ATT store and they said I needed to go to Best Buy to have someone "flash" the update. I went to Best Buy and it seems that the Samsung reps are similar to magic unicorns -- they might very well exist but nobody knows when you might be able to catch one in the wild.
Is there any way I can take care of this myself without having to root the phone or do a factory reset? Any tutorial on "flashing" with a link to version 6.0.1?
TIA!

Yes there is! It's on the front page! And it is called tutorial upgrade to marshmallow. U need to install Odin and windows samsung drivers. All links to tools are in it. Just follow the instructions to a t.
I purchased myself a used (good/mint condition) LE2125 phone from Swappa as an Xmas gift and have been using it for about the past week or so. Really liking the phone so far.
But it is still on Oxygen OS 11.2.10.10. And each time I check for updates, it still tells me I'm up to date. I am in the US using the phone with Spectrum mobile, although phone sees the Sim as Verizon.
To my knowledge, phone has never been rooted.
Shouldn't I have received the update by now? Although I am still a little afraid to take it based on the initial update fiasco.
Should I just download the Oxygen Update app and go that route?

I also haven't received on the same device and version. So, it's seems like a slow rollout
If you manually check for updates in settings does it tell you you're up to date? If so, I'd just get the update from Oxygen Updater and do a local install. Some people did have issues with the first release of OOS12 (C36) but those should have all been resolved in the next one (C39). I never had any issues with the update personally.
Thanks,
The Oxygen updater wants to go to C.36 first. And then after that, I think straight to C.40. I will likely wait till later tonight to update as do not want to mess up phone while here at work today.

Probably because C36 is the full update. If it won't let you download both C36 and C40 at the same time (before updating), I'd make sure you have access to wifi in case you're one of the lucky few affected by the mobile network issue in C36. But most likely you'll be fine, the other issues were very minor and you wouldn't even notice if you just install the second update right away.
Does Chrome auto fill work for you on 12? I heard that it was broken, but don't know whether it's been fixed with C40? Holding off on updating until someone can confirm. Thx
EDIT: Decided to bite the bullet and upgraded to C40 on my L2125. I actually like it quite a bit, but can confirm that for me, at least, Chrome auto-fill doesn't work. Other nit is you cannot put the battery percentage in the status bar AND remove the icon; either you have both, none, or just the icon. Also, Netflix is pre-loaded, but won't open or uninstall and update and when I go to the Play Store it shows as incompatible with my device?? (bootloader unlocked, but not re-rerooted yet). Also the power menu no longer gives you a recovery or bootloader option in rebooting. Good things include having more gestures (raise phone to answer) and a panel to control apps that auto-start or not. Also, somehow m yreboot sequence no longer includes the danger, your bootloader has been unlocked, screen (which I didn't think was possible to get rid of).
Rolling back to Android 11 for now. Also, many more root options still available there (like Gravity Box and JamesDSP)
Hi! I bought my phone recently and I would like to install pure android on this device. Is this possible? If so, I would also like to know if it would be possible to download this operating system directly from Google's server (just as we download Windows directly from the Microsoft website at https://www.microsoft.com/software-download, for example). The second question is for security reasons.
Thank you!
Since no one else has answered, I'll try:
I'm going to assume what you mean by "pure" Android is the unlocked version of Samsung's firmware for your particular phone model. If you don't have some version of the Samsung Galaxy s22, then you're asking your question in the wrong place.
First you need to find out whether your phone is locked, and if so, whether it can be unlocked.
Then, watch this video for an overview:
If you decide you would like to continue, an easier way of obtaining firmware is from samfw.com.
The video mentioned above includes links to the two different types of Odin, which is the software you would use to flash the firmware onto your phone.
In general, since you haven't done this sort of thing before, I would recommend triple checking every step, as there are certain mistakes you can make that will render your phone unusable.
Good luck!
