I don't know what happened. I followed this guide perfectly and it still says Software status: Modified. Help!
As I understand it, if you receive an OTA update from Motorola and successfully flash that, your software status should revert to Official.
You should be able to receive updates regardless of whether your bootloader is locked or unlocked - just ensure you've got the right build for your software channel/region and that you have a working SIM in your device.

unlocked and rooted, anyway i can get the latest 404 build?
You would have to install two OTAs. So theoretically, it could be done.

no OTA showing, and someone mentioned on another forum the first OTA was stopped, so therefore the 2nd would not be available to me yet

You will probably want/need to install it manually.

As adrynalyne said, you just have to manually install the IMM76D update first, then install the IMM76I update. Since you are rooted, it should take you all of 30 secs to copy the file to /cache and update. And repeat.
Confused
I clearly understand how to flash and install but just dont understand why this has to be done, since my phone is a yakju build (ICL53F 4.0.2), does anyone know why the OTA is still blocked now that a fix has been made available ?

No one knows how Google decides how to roll out the updates. Either wait for Google to give it to you, or take matters into your own hands and get it now by installing it yourself.

Where do you live?
Hi I just wanted some confirmation that unlocking bootloader doesn't block me from getting OTA updates from Google, since I haven't gotten an OTA for the latest build yet (The May update). I'm hoping this is only cause I'm in India and it hasn't pushed to us yet. I've enrolled in the Android Beta Program to test if OTA is really broken (since it sends an OTA with the Android N image.)
I haven't modified anything, I tried flashing TWRP but it didn't stick cause I didn't know I had to go into the recovery and modify the system/boot, so I still have the stock android recovery.
Any confirmation will give me a lot of peace of mind, cause I value getting OTAs and not having to manually flash it. If it has indeed been broken, I want to know if relocking would fix it and if relocking would wipe data again. Thanks for your help
EDIT: Just got the OTA for the N preview, so I guess it's just a roll out thing then. Just want to leave this here for anyone else who's new to nexus devices and was wondering the same.

Simply having an unlocked bootloader won't stop you from receiving OTAs. I don't believe they've even began pushing the OTA for the May update.

You need to flash stock boot and recovery images to receive it or alternatively use chainfires flashfire app.
Hello guys. I've rooted my phone using King-Root, One Click method. Now, I need my phone to be unrooted, because I want to upgrade OS version through the official system upgrade option. Will flashing stock rom unroot my phone? Please guide me.

I'm getting a message that says 'Can't check for updates while in roaming network. Connect to wifi network.' As I can't connect to a wifi right now, am unable to capture the screenshot of the software update notification. My current OS version is 5.1.1 and I'm getting an update notification for OS v6.
Back to my topic, is there a way to unroot the phone? It would really help me.

Are you sure its v6? Do you have K420DS (Indian) version. You can remove root in the Kingoroot App or Root manager app. Check that once. A better thing would be if you take a screenshot we can confirm it with other users of K420DS.

It's a Software Update. I have unrooted my phone using SuperSU. Though I have confirmed the unroot using Root-Cheker, the second picture is of the error I got while installing the update -
What options do I have now?

Yes, it's not marshmallow!! Just a simple bug fix update. I rooted my phone in January, so I couldn't install this update. This update notification is long due for me (kinda forgot what it was exactly, hence the misunderstanding)
But still, my issue isn't solved. You got any clue why am I getting this error? Will re-rooting my phone properly and un-rooting again solve it?

Since your system is modified .i.e. you have "root" access, OTA updates don't work.
Soooo.....I just bought this phone, unlocked the bootloader and installed Magisk.
Today, I got a system update notification saying Android Pie is ready to download.
Anybody else getting this and if so, I have to go back to 100% stock in order to upgrade right? Then unlock BL again?
Mine isn't showing the update yet. I've got the TA-1068. Not unlocked or anything.
It is possible someone jumped the gun, releasing it too early, and they pulled it so can't download it.
Not yet available on my nokia 6.1. I think we are a couple of weeks away from the update.

What security update level of android 8.1 are you on?
Good luck getting 100% back to stock.
I have a TA-1045 and I unlocked the bootloader and installed Magisk on the July patch of android 8.1. I get update prompts for the August security update, but the update won't install. I tried completely removing Magisk, but it stills fails with "Installation Failed". I don't think anyone has a stock recovery image (at least for TA-1045) to restore
At this point if you flash twrp/magisk you have no way of restoring to stock and accepting OTA updates. You will be stuck on the update you are on until someone figures out a way to take OTA updates or someone gets a hold of stock firmware images for your device (none yet for TA-1045)

I've was able to get back to stock recovery, system and vendor using the 1043 images and my phone still shows as a 1045. So even if removing magisk, it fails, cause I'm getting the installation failed as well. I'm curious if removing magisk and relocking the bootloader will help?

Nope - don't think its Chinse - it appears to be a "global" or international version. I don't really notice a difference from my original stock.
I got it from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...-to-flash-global-firmware-pl2-222e-0-t3831764
And was able to flash the "extracted version" with fastboot. I used some fastboot instructions that I found for a chinese rom and changed the filenames to match the worldwide filenames and it worked without the OST tool

You should have pulled the OTA link from a logcat so the rest of us can download the update files and upgrade ourselves :/
I guess this OTA is a fake. No one with a Nokia 6.1 has reported getting an Android Pie notification. It's super rare that just one single person will get it.

This. Unless OP is an insider and just dun goof'd, then I fail to see this as legit.
Slightly off-topic:
I was on the June security patch on my 6.1 until yesterday. I received an OTA notification while half asleep and got all excited thinking it was the Pie update, but no, it was the July security patch. What's interesting is that immediately after installing I received the notification for the August security patch, and promptly installed that. May just be me being lucky, but that almost imples that HMD are trying to push out the latest security updates to devices as a way of preparing for Pie maybe?
