If you have custom recovery and root the ota update obviously wont work. I had asked the developer of root for our devices for the otas and this is what he had said:

My suggestion, if you want to keep root don't take an OTA.
If you really want to stay with stock LG then you'll want to flash updates via custom recovery. The community will take the updates from LG and make them flashable with TWRP or CWM.

so you ll have to wait for someone to make this update a flashable zip.

Yeah there is a script that runs when you do a OTA. My buddy had to completely restore to stock using download mode to fix his. You may get lucky with doing a factory wipe but sounds like flashing a new rom didn't even help... Look through the forums and find the thread that guides you through doing a regular restore (this will restore you to the original software. You will be unrooted and your recovery will go back to stock. This means you can do the OTA if you so desire. Just keep in mind it may block Loki and root)

Thanks for the reply mate,
Yeah i will do like that , but surely there is a way somewhere to remove the boot loop , from TWRP you can remove edit files.
So if someone with more knowledge tell us where the OTA files give the command to boot to recovery we can remove it.
Cheers

Post your problem in twrp's thread. Drgravy replies often and he knows more than anyone what to do in a situation like yours.
Thanks all for your help ....
I unbricked the device with FlashTool.1.0.54 , i flashed the original firmware , the strange thing this did not wipe my data, only removed Custom recovery and root.
Cheers

the software version is v50010b from v50010a
Perhaps the update is by region. I cannot seem to initiate update via OTA or LG PC Suite.

To be honest I didn't mention any chances , sure they (lg) updated their apps but I haven't notice any system chances , but then again I can't take it from my kids and wife hands!!!!
Just tried the update to a stock (but rooted) Gpad
At 3% installing, error 0x13E
After booting, a samsung-like:laugh: message:
"This device is suspected in rooting. Software update is not available for rooted device"
Fortunately this tablet is not mine... This tablet needs a "google edition" update ASAP
Maybe somebody could cook this update into a package that can be flashed by people who are on stock, but rooted?
I am on stock, rooted, but the update went fine.

So I am trying to install the latest 3.2.1 Update but everytime I get installation failed? I used to have root and custom emojis on the phone but I wiped the phone with TWRP by booting it, flashed stock rom and the 3.2.0 update. I then realised I had no recovery at all so I flashed the stock recovery with adb but even tho I have stock rom with no root or anything and stock recovery I still get installation failed? Could it be that I have my bootloader unlocked but still stock everything else that makes it so its not working or what? really need help with this as I wanna be able to install with OTA.
-Marcus
Did you try "adb sideload" in stock recovery?
I had the same problem when updating 3.2.1 to 3.2.2....I was on stock no root bootloader locked too...I downloaded the ota 7 times and failed....then I downloaded 3.2.2 full rom,unlocked bootloader,flash twrp and then flashed the full romm using twrp...and it was a success....but I really don't what was causing the problem....can anyone explain why the ota update install failed?because i really wanna update the phone using ota not by flashing everytime....can anyone help?

Hi, I just tried to install the September OTA update based on the Magisk OTA installation tips however the installation of the update fails during step 1. At least I am still rooted on the August patch level. How can I update my phone without losing data? I thought about reflashing system and trying the steps again but I don't know where to get the factory images for 9.6.6.0 (August) or 9.6.8.0 (September). This is my first A/B phone by the way. Thanks in advance.

You can check @BubuXP's reply here it might help you out. :good:
On this page only the ROM for 9.6.4.0 (July) can be downloaded. Later versions are not available anywhere? If not I have to flash July with fastboot, root again and retry the OTA update?

No, the only fastboot image at the moment is this. It should be not a problem downgrading, as long as the same Android version is involved (Oreo 8.1 in this case).
And yes, you can flash that fastboot image and then follow my guide to install Magisk, and then install the OTA update always following my guide, just to test that everything is working as intended.
This did not work. Seems like using flash_all_except_storage.bat was not the right choice, my unlock pattern during booting is not accepted.

So you must use flash_all.bat, but you will lose your data. At the moment the data is in the phone memory, but is encrypted and you probably lost the decryption key when you flashed the other partitions, so not a great lose anyway.
I don't know if there is a way to get your data back.
Yes, I already did this. Had forgotten to disable the pattern.
Hi everyone. I've tried multiple times to update my phone to the latest oxygen 9.0.3 version both via OTA and recovery. All the times I've got a failed update message. The phone have unlocked bootloader, the recovery I'm using is twrp 3.2.1 and the oxygen version is the 5.0.8

Unlocked bootloader ...it will erase your storage completely ....as there is a encryption error which they have not yet resolved...
so any way you need to backup ur datas... then use the latest TWRP 3.3 or flash the stock recovery which you can download from oneplus support ....
then install the full rom it will be updated ...
Hi if someone could please help me as I am bootloader unlocked, rooted, (systemless) using TWRP Recovery, Magisk V.19.3, blu spark r153 oos kernal.....However a couple days ago my phone is indicating a OTA avalible, sorry did some searching just couldnt find the right awnser, I know I need to full OTA becuase I'm rooted, instead of the incremental, just looking for the best way to do this while also updating to the latest blu_spark kernal & latest TWRP, sorry just want to make sure I'm doing all this correct thanks
Do not update via OTA if you've fully rooted and installed custom kernels.
Kindly do the necessary installation steps, and don't do it like a normal OTA update.
