Will it? Some of my friends told me they can't receive OTA even with yakju version 4.0.1 is that affacted by rooting?
Shouldn't be, so long as you don't flash a stock rom - the OTA for the volume bug took the best part of a week to reach all handsets.
You'll loose root - the files will still be there but the permissions on them will be changed, to get root access back you'll need to rerun the chmod 06775 on su and Superuser.apk.
the same here...still on 4.0.1 with rooted stock - GSM free edition AT.
Can I rerun superboot r3 after applying the 4.0.2 OTA update?
A little explenation. As far as my knowlege goes..
You don't root the rom, its the phones bootloader that you overwrite so you so you can install custom recovery. With that you can overwrite the stock rom with a custom rom, kernel or radio.
So after rooting you are still on stock everything as long as you dont flash anything after that.
I read somewhere that some custom roms still received a update when on stock kernel.
You can always return to stock everything if you dont get the update or just flash a custom rom that is already uptodate.
Some say rooting and custom roms does affect the OTA updates and like you said others have got the updates so I think it's pretty hit and miss.
The only way to truly know is go back to stock and force an update and see if it works.
Until we get a proper CyanogenMod for this phone I'm staying as close to stock as possible (plus root and Wanam). I'm rooted and installed TWRP, so how do I update to the latest ROM from T-Mobile?
To update OTA u need stock recovery. This goes for every phone.
Do we have to revert to stock Rom to upgrade to lollipop? Was wondering if it's the same with the htc eye update wherein you have to go back to stock and update manually before flashing the custom rom. I am having an extremely difficult time going back to stock for some weird reason.
For every major update on this device so far (AFAIK) HTC has updated the firmware. So yes, my guess will be that you will need to update firmware to run Sense Lollipop custom ROMs And unless you s-off and therefore able to update the firmware manually; your alternative will be to return to stock ROM and recovery and OTA to Lollipop.
Ohhh, Been trying to revert to stock but it just doesnt work. thanks
If I'm just rooted and not s off stock Rom and all that anything I need to do to get the lollipop update or just wait for it to hit my ota on my phone?

Just wait for it. If you're stock then you shouldn't have a problem. The only real headache will be how long you have to wait to get the OTA.
Stock: Stock ROM, Stock Recovery, No changes to system i.e no xposed framework. No deleted pre-installed apps(Facebook etc) no changes to files like platform.xml, build.prop etc.
Being rooted on the other hand shouldn't cause any problems.
Hello guys,
following situation:
Long time I had a 4.4.something Rom installed. Before I flashed a custom Lollipop rom, I followed the advice to just go back to stock and let it update to Lollipop so that the firmware will be updated accordingly and I won't run into problems when flashing a Lollipop Custom Rom. Everything worked fine. Now I had to send my phone to HTC for display repair and just to make sure they won't nag about the custom Rom I reflashed some older stock rom via TWRP backup I found here, I think it was a 4.0 or so. The question is, does this also affect my phones firmware or is it still on the current newest level? So when I get it back, would I need to update to stock Lollipop again before flashing a custom rom or can I go for it straight away?

It won't affect your firmware.
Okay thanks, so Firmware should still be up to date and I can flash a Lollipop Custom Rom. I don't know what they do at HTC repair, if they only reset it or if they also update it, well I'll see.
I want to install a stock lollipop rom that has nothing changed because I may have deleted some system apks that are needed for the Default App manager to work. I want to get everything back to normal as possible and then reinstall a custom rom. I am rooted and have twrp installed. I do not want to lose rooted or twrp if possible.
