Can anyone tell me if I go from a rooted Verizon note 8 and update to Oreo, if I can't get the hotspot to work right, will I be able to downgrade to re-root? Or if I backup what I have now using flashify, can I go back using the restore option on flashify?

Hi I just found out that we got an update. Now usually when a new update comes out I odin back to stock and then update and reinstall twrp then make a nandroid of my stock rom. Then I go back to my AOKP or whatever I am using which is usually something AOSP. In this way I have the new modem and I have a nandroid of the latest stock rom. But last time we got an update I ran ito the problem of the stock recovery rewriting itself. So I was able to use the the security hole to root the phone and then I was able put twrp on. Now this update is supposed to patch up that hole so how do we root? Use the tookit to stop it from rewriting? Or I guess I could just flash the new modem and forget about it. So does anyone know how to get it done?
Also does anyone know where to get a odin copy of the newest update?
I followed someone's instructions and installed ota rootkeeper from play store. Updated phone and kept it rooted

CF-Auto root still works.
To do an OTA update, I had to flash a custom rom and now I need to reinstall all my apps. I was wondering if there is a way to unroot my sprint note 2, update it, then reroot it again without having to backup all my data. Or is there a way to do this with ODIN and flash the latest firmware and then going back to my normal roms and such? Thanks!

You will need to back up!!! Using odin will delete all data and apps!!! Its easy enough to do.

Hello, I have rooted my stock Galaxy Note 3 T-Mobile 4.3 and now I heard that Samsung is rolling out soon KitKat update for the Note 3.
My questions is, do I have to unroot and return to stock then update then root the exact same way I did before ?
Does updating to KitKat require a different root method ?
Can I restore my apps and how ? I dont seem to know how to use Titanium backup and I even purchased it!
Please help me and thanks

I believe that you can update to Kitkat via Odin when the official update comes to T-mobile while rooted but you will lose root in the process. As far as rerooting, I believe you can flash recovery with Odin and then flash SuperSu in recovery to get rooted again, although, I think I read somewhere that it wasn't recommended anymore?. Not sure though. I used auto root method which I'm sure would still work just fine with kitkat. For restoring apps I would recommend the App backup and restore from the play store. Very easy to use.
Why dont you flash a 4.4 rom that's out there

I generally NEVER accept OTA updates until Devs have a chance to look at it and okay it, or see what others feedback is after accepting. Don't take for granted that you are rooted and have unlocked boot loader access. And until official KitKat is released its all hearsay as to when it'll come out.
Hi my friends, I am looking for a STOCK RECOVERY for my LG G Pad F 8.0 AT&T (V495). I was trying to do an OTA upgrade to 6 but after the Download and restart the installation is giving me an error because i am ROOTED. I need to flash stock recovery to be able to install new OTA upgrade to Marshmallow 6. Is someone have a 5.0.2 STOCK Recovery or maybe another idea on how can I do and upgrade to Marshmallow 6 I will appreciate any help. Thanks
Is there a KDZ or TOT available for your variant?
I am in the same boat. I can not find the stock rom anywhere. I would like to upgrade to to 6.0. I am rooted with king root. If the stock rom is not found is there a way to unroot and delete all root files so the update does not detect the root so we can update?

In order to take OTAs (starting with Lollipop) you have to never have been rooted (since the most recent time you've flashed a KDZ or TOT).
Unrooting isn't enough.
I am stock rooted right now on 5.1 but want to update to Marshmallow.
What is the easiest method for this?
I did this method originally while on 5.1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/orig-development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3066720
I was going to restore my stock system backup in TWRP and then do the OTA and then do the above procedure again to obtain root.
I wasn't sure if I had to go through this same exact procedure again to go from root in 5.1 to root in Marshmallow or if things have changed.
TIA

Just use the latest ruu. Doesn't wipe. Flash twrp and supersu afterwards to RE root
