HI.
I really liked the idea of keeping pretty stock (ie no custom rom).. but just tweaking with root / xposed etc.
But.. doing that I now cant install firmware upgrades...
Is it possible to remove root so that ota firmware upgrades work? Have no idea as in the past I've just had custom roms..
Thanks!

One of the mods will probably move this to Q&A as its where you should be asking this question.
Anyways if your sticking with stock and rooted but want to update the firmware as they come out you simply get it via a full firmware flash from Samsung's own Kies 3 software.
Doing this however breaks your root and any apps/mods that you've installed to the system partition however you can simply just re-root and reinstall any system apps/mods you happened to have installed there.
This is not a big deal and is generally quick and painless.
Also remember that if you use a custom recovery TWRP or CWM doing a full firmware flash will restore the stock recovery and you will half to re-flash that back as well.
You wont get notifications about updates however since your rooted and OTA gone. Just keep an eye on things for your specific device and region for updates. People generally post here on XDA about the new updates when their available as well as firmware update news from Sammobile.com
You can also plug your phone into your computer with Kies3 running and it will check to see if your on the latest firmware available as a way of manually checking.
II had the same doubt. Thank you for the clear explanation.
The last time i flashed a rom was about 6 months ago and the last time i had to get my hands dirty in a root and recovery process was even longer, probably as much as 2 years back with my old S2.
With this in mind i was hoping for a little guidance on a couple of things.
1) I'm not too concerned with triggering knox that i heard could be a problem in the early days for the note 3 as it's nearly 2 years old but I'd prefer not to, what is the best way and the best order to root, flash recovery and then flash a rom?
2)i know there isn't much love for people asking what is the best rom but what i would like to have is a stable rom even if it isn't the most recent and i do like touchwiz. However i do like the idea of extra features and tweaks. So, are there roms around that meet these requirements?
Cheers guys.
There are ROMs.. but Xposed is still not stable for Lollipop Samsung phones...
I'm not a fan of Touchwiz either but Lollipop Touchwiz is awesome (coming from a CM Fan)
Also ROMs like AryaMod are promising
cheers mate.
any other advice for the rooting and recovery processes from anyone?
You are not out for long enough to forget stuffs Welcome back anyway.
Rooting can't be more easy. Just flash any custom recovery (TWRP/ Philz), and flash the SuperSU zip package which can be found in Chainfire's website from it, https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
Done, you are rooted.
And for stable ROMs, well some are out there, but my favourite is AryaMod. It is based on stock TW ROM and comes with lots of customisations. If you are looking for purely stock based ROMs then just download those cooked ROMs by Alexandar (pardon if the spelling is wrong), they are as close to stock as you will get. And I don't like S6 based ROMs, I have a Note 3 and I want it as a Note 3, but there are few out there which will give you some S6 features. But the ones I mentioned are purely Note 3 based, you won't find any other phones' feature in them

1. I triggered Knox ages back so haven't kept up on things but if you flash a custom recovery, AFAIK you WILL trigger it. There are ways to flash custom ROMs etc without triggering Knox but I think you have to flash a pre-rooted ROM. Do some reading around - I've seen a number of threads about it.
2. I am currently on Temasek's CM12.1 ROM and have been for some time. I occasionally try others but have always come back to his - it's everything I like. Even on stock though, I run Nova launcher. For a stock-based ROM I'd recommend Sparx's Alliance ROM - I used it for months and it is easily the most configurable ROM I have seen - you don't need Xposed or other app to mod things, it's all built in.
You'd be surprised how much i could forget haha
So, would it be - 1) root (which method and how?) 2) flash recovery (which one and how?) 3) if I'm to use arya rom it says I'd need a stock lollipop installed first so would i do this before the root and recovery (again which one and how?)
Thanks guys for advice and patience.

hi and thanks for the referral to Arya. i see it mentions having to come from an existing stock lollipop. could you take a look at my post just before this one and see if you can guide me a little as i dont want to brick my note 3 by doing something either wrong or in the wrong order. thanks for your help.

1,2- Root: Simple as I said before. Just head over to Development section and find TWRP recovery. Flash that via Odin. Then go to Chainfire's website, to download the SuperSU zip package, 2.46 I believe is the latest version. Have that zip package copied to your internal or external memory, enter Recovery (I am sure you remember Vol Up + Power button combo will help you to enter recovery) and flash that SuperSU zip file. Just reboot the phone and you are now rooted.
3- Yes, you will be needing to flash a stock Lollipop ROM to be able to use Arya. I am not sure but I think its because of the bootloader. If you want to flash a stock ROM, just head over to sammobile.com and download any Lollipop ROM you want and flash it via Odin. Then download Arya ROM, it will be a zip package, and install that from TWRP, just like you would flash that SuperSU zip for rooting.

Cheers mate, i think I'm nearly there. Flashing the stock lollipop will wipe out root won't it? Do is it best to first flash the stock lollipop, then flash twrp then root then arya?
Lastly, when i looked on sammobile there were many different regions of it. I'm in the uk on an unlocked international model which i believe is btu. I know btu hasn't had it yet so which one is best? I know I'll be flashing arya over it but would like it to be the right one as i might try it out for a few days before flashing arya.

Yep, you got it right, you should flash the stock Lollipop ROM first, then flash TWRP, then root the phone (SuperSU zip package from recovery) and then flash AryaMod. That way you won't have to repeat any steps, cause flashing any stock ROM will restore stock recovery anyway, but I am sure you've already figured that.
About the ROMs on sammobile.com, well I can't really say which one you should download. I once downloaded a German or UK ROM (can't recall really) and it wouldn't flash on my UAE Note 3, someone told me that mine is 32 gigs phone and that ROM was meant for 16 gigs phone, since then I really didn't put much thought about those ROMs anyway, and obviously I had found Arya by then. You can ask in on the UK only topic in general section, they should be able to help you. The ROM from sammobile which worked for my phone was Polish Lollipop ROM, but again, it worked on my phone, so you get the point.
So, I'm coming from a "dead" Sammy Galaxy S3. I want to know of you, Moto users, how are these things on Moto X Play. I mean..
In my dead S3, I rooted using Odin and, when stock updates still existed, I was unable to update on phone and had to use Odin to flash the whole rom. After this, the root access disappear and I had to root it again using Odin.
How this things works on Motorola devices? I have already learned how to root the X Play but, after rooting, how do I update my stock firmware when any update become available? Do I have to update in the phone in the stock method (like a dream :fingers-crossed or Motorola devices got a flashing tool such as Odin?
Thanks since now

Just download the file, unzip, and then manually flash using fastboot. There is a Moto tool you could use as well I believe, but I prefer fastboot. Gives you a better sense overall of what's happening, and you know what you are doing.

"just download the file" You mean, the firmware file, right? Is there a "samfirmware" from Motorola?
So, considering that this is the method used to flash a stock firmware over a rooted-stock firmware, what happens to the root access?
Root will go away unless you find a pre-rooted system image. Pretty much what would happen with a stock firmware file for any phone
My main question is: How is the process to back to a stock rom after rooting and installing TWRP or something like that?
More than likely you would download a stock image file from Motorola and install it using the "fastboot" command on your computer
Moto X Play INDIAN firmware
Can someone please upload the INDIAN firmware for moto x play dual sim?
Well, it's been some days that I created this thread. Now I know it's neccessary to remove root and reflash stock firmware on MXP to update for 6.0 update, for example (the same process as other Moto devices) . I never did this, but i'm not afraid because we got XDA and we have a lot of tutorials explaining how to do these things. The "scary" part is that a I see a lot of people asking for full firmwares and etc. I mean, I know the firmware from my region is different than the others (and this can easily mess firmware's modem or something like that - messing the imei also).
If we only had a "deposit" of firmwares like samfirware for sammy devices...
I've been looking in some forums about this questions and I found this: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/91999/p/1449,8620
it gave me to understand that, If I unlock the bootloader of my phone and root it, but not installing custom recovery (for example), I'll still be able to receive and install successfully OTA updates?
- Edit: I forgot that TWRP is need to install superSU.

This is just a safe upgrade to the latest CQA1 firmware for the SM-N910V. If you are already on 6.0 with an unlocked bootloader you can flash this to update. It will not lock your bootloader or overwrite your custom recovery. I slightly debloated it but other than that it's completely stock and still odexed.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Boot to recovery and do a complete wipe (everything except your internal and external sd card)
- Power off device and pull battery for at least 3 seconds
- Boot into Download mode and connect phone to your computer
-Start Odin and place the tar file in the AP slot
-Once Odin says it's ready just press start and let it do it's thing
CQA1 FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD
If you would like to run stock you can download and flash SuperSu for root and also Busybox by Osmosis
Thanks will try later!
Thanks, I'll give it a look over.

No buddy there isn't. The issues you'll have will vary when trying to upgrade the firmware without updating the bootloader. Mostly wifi related and brightness issues. All of the safe upgrades remove the aboot so it wouldn't update your bootloader.

OK, I am on BPA1. Lollipop - Marshmallow combo. Bootloader unlocked, root, etc. Running the 05/24/2016 Hsbadr CM 13.1 build. Can, I flash this and keep the unlocked bootloader or do I have to go through the whole downgrade to the BPA1 firmware, re-root and all that jazz? I just can't believe there is not an easier way to get to Marshmallow-Marshmallow since the bootloader is unlocked.

Yes . doesn't contain aboot :victory: but the bootloader didn't change it isn't necessary or particularly useful unless you wanted to builds a touchwiz based ROM and wanted to use the most recent base .

And no lol if you took the safe upgrade from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 (via the lollipop ROM on marshmallow toolchain) you are currently on an up to date bootloader it is unneccesarry to repeat the unlock procedure and no this doesn't lock your bootloader . it isn't rooted however you would need to flash that but it is a one and done via twrp . kingroot wasn't needed.

No, unfortunately there currently isn't an easier process than the one that is outlined in this thread. I had some different intentions with this firmware when I was putting it together and some personal stuff came up so I just posted it as is but you'll need to update your bootloader or you'll have wifi issues with the 6.0 roms.
It's my understanding, though I haven't tested it personally, that's not the case for the 7.0 aosp roms. From what I've read there's been people running those on the bpa1 bootloader.

So can you tell me if this is where I would start first, since I am on Baseband version BPA1 with root and Unlocked BL i copied the following below from the instructions from the link you provided.
"Extract and flash N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5 via Odin
This will make you on Lollipop with Marshmallow bootchain/firmware/modem, which is rootable."
Sorry for the noob like questions. I've just been away too long and I really don't want to screw this up lol. I do appreciate all your help though.

No problem. Yes if you're already unlocked on bpa1 then just go ahead and Odin the firmware you mentioned (N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5). Once you get that booted up then it's just a matter of repeating the same process as before with the LP bootloader. Keep in mind that you won't have wifi when you flash that firmware so you may want to have a copy of kingroot on your internal sdcard ready to go. Then I usually reference this post here on out. There's a couple threads on this subject but I feel like they have some unnecessary steps involved whereas that post really cuts to the meat of it in my opinion.
@kevintm78 Thanks so much. In your opinion, is there really any difference between LP and MM? I really do appreciate your help.
Hi All,
Complete noob here, so please be gentle!
I recently bought a new, "unlocked" LG V20 from an auction site.
The trouble is it came with AT&T carrier ROM, which being in the UK and not on AT&T means that it's stuck with the all of the branding and no access to updates.
Build number: NRD90M
Software version: H91010I
Android security patch level: December , 2016
If it's at all possible, I'd like to flash it with a generic non-carrier LG ROM, but unsure of what ROMs are safe to use on this phone, or exactly how to go about doing it.
I've looked at lots of forums and Youtube videos, but many of the links I've found are broken, or the instructions assume a level of previous knowledge that I don't have.
I'm not looking for the very latest firmware, or any trick customisations. I just want a phone that doesn't annoy me!
Can anyone advise what ROM to use, where to download it, and step by step instructions to install it without bricking my phone.
TIA

Try Super Rom. It's bare bones. No bloatware from LG or ATT.
Follow the steps here to flash TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/root-h910-v10m-t3664500. I'm having trouble with backups fully restoring, but it works otherwise.
I'd imagine you could install Super Rom right after you can access TWRP, but I haven't tried it. I did it after flashing 10r.
Download Super Rom and put it on your SD card. Flash it after wiping everything https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/rom-superv20-h918-t3764390. During the installation, it will ask you if you want to flash a kernel. Select mk2000. The speed difference is astounding. It's slow and lags without the kernel, but extremely fast if you include it. Boot system and set it up. Then go back to TWRP and flash SuperSU for root.

You can just flash a US996 KDZ using patched LGUP, unticking modem. Don't accept OTA updates though
Thanks all,
Not been ignoring you - just crazy busy.
So if i understand correctly, the 996 rom will give me a stock, unbranded V20 with the 2nd screen working?
Is there any particular version of the rom to look for, or any to avoid.

Just flash the newest US996 KDZ, don't worry about modem (they're both GSM only devices, so US996 modem should work on the h910, and it'll also change the unlocked-bands to US996). Use the patched LGUP from this forum, it allows cross flashing
