So here is the list of question (sorry if i annoy but please let me know my answers)
After rooting will i get OTA updates?
Some seniors say that i cant get OTA updates with custom recovery installed??
So can i try custom recovery temporery and then when i'll found update arrived on other unrooted devices i'll restore to stock recovery? will it help?
And if i backup my stock ROM and install custom ROM on my device and then for OTA can i just restore stock and get the update?
Please answers stuck on this things

yes you will get ota updates but android 5 has done some changes to root so after updating there may be some problems

no if u install a custom recovery u will not get ota updates as ota update requires a stock recovery to install itself
So can i try custom recovery temporery and then when i'll found update arrived on other unrooted devices i'll restore to stock recovery? will it help?

yes u can temp try custom recovery and then restore to stock

The Sprint version got an OTA update not too long ago and those who had TWRP installed have had some trouble afterwards. I'm stock rooted and would like to update it to get the new radio, but I don't know if the update patched the bootloader bypass to flash TWRP.
If I update my phone normally, will I still be able to flash TWRP afterwards?
Or should I install TWRP now and install the flashable ota radio?

Don't take my word but I think you can still flash after wards but you in Sprint development here's a stock rooted ROM with the ota update deodexed or odex.....also just the zv8 radio won't stop the ota.....zv8 radio has audio garbling fix...ota had a Google security patch....

I just flashed TWRP. If I backup everything in TWRP can I flash the updated stock ROM and restore the backup and have all my apps and call/text logs back?

I have rooted my G2(D802) in stock rom.
Will I still receive Official OTA update?
1. you will, but the device will refuse to install it because it's rooted
2. you will, the device will install it and your phone will only root to recovery (if you have custom recovery)
those are the only scenarios I know of.

Yes the update can sill show up and after ignoring it a couple of times it will force itself to install and either a)if you have custom recovery you will bootloop and if you were using twrp there is a way to remove update or you will need to go Back to stock, b)if you have modified system, installed xposed or removed bloat it will refuse to install because those are things that can only be done with root and so will give message won't update because it's suspected of rooting and there are ways to make it so that it won't update but I don't remember

Hloo guys i want to know that if i install twrp recovery, thn will i get official OTA updates or i have roll back to stock recovery....
The safest would be to receive the ota and then root if the custom recovery has support for the ota installed as it changes a lot of things.
From the twrp faq:
Installing official updates usually removes root and replaces your custom recovery with a copy of a stock recovery. Most of the time the best way to get a new update onto your device is to simply wait a couple of days for ROM makers for your device to come up with ROMs that are based on the new update that you can safely and easily install.

Okk..thnx bro
Hi, I have a european S8+ fully rooted and with TWRP.
Everything's working great so far but I read somewhere that I won't receive further OTA updates.
Can I install them manually with TWRP?
If yes, 3 questions:
1. Where can I get them?
2. Do I need every single update or are the newest update always containing the older updates as well?
3. Do I lose root or TWRP after installing an update?
I've rooted with Magisk by the way.
Typically if you're rooted and modified the system partition (BusyBox or twrp or whatever) the update will not install in stock recovery. Usually you have to unroot reinstall stock recovery and flash ota. There's toolkits out that can do that. Or you can just find an awesome rom like a rooted debloated rom thats just recently updated and just flash that. Or you can what till somebody snags the ota update location then posts that.
I've rooted my phone a few months ago but want to re-enable stock recovery to be able to install OTA updates. I'm running Nougat 7.0
Can someone help me out please?

First question... When first installing TWRP, did you do a full backup? You should have backed up, then had to repeat specific steps to install TWRP to make it permanent.

Umm I wouldn't worry about updates they are not coming anymore. I'm not a 100% sure but I believe you can flash the stock recovery. img. and uninstall root. Worse case reflash nougat.
