Hello good friends, i bought my S7 Edge and discovery the previous ower had rooted the device, only discovery after trying samsung pay.
Well my question is, the s7 have stock rom, stock recovery, and unroot, so the OTA updates will work?!?!
Thanks so much!
Yes, OTA updates will work after an unroot.

I've already uninstalled xposed btw. Thank you for any help

Install stock recovery back, then flash stock nougat zip.
no wipes needed.
you can download the ota from asus support site.
Hello, I'm on the fence here.
Here I sit with my dear moto g4 play which I am about to root.
The only question standing in my way is regarding future nougat update (In case Lenovo actually releases it).
Below are my questions.
If I only root my phone now will I be able to get OTA once I restore the stock recovery?
I do not wish to try new roms but just have the root and be able to easily get future nougat update when it arrives, what would be the best way to do this?
Hey there,
I am currently running LineageOS (Oreo) and I have to say I am pretty dissapointed about it.
The Phone is rooted and unlocked.
Most of the reallly usefull stuf the OP5 has doesn't work on LineageOS. The Hardware Profile Slider is useless, no Screen-Off Gestures, the Stock OOS Camera App is buggy...etc
So my question is:
Is there a way to stay on regular Stock OOS and receive all OTAs but keep staying rooted?
And if so will I be able to stay rooted after an update? I read that one way would be to have TWRP installed and "manually flash" updates under 1GB.
Thanks a lot guys!
You can receive OTA with magisk passing SafetyNet but you need to re-root after every update, i think software will advise you before update that had find the root :good:
Hey guys,
I'm about to start rooting my S7 this weekend. It's been at least a year or more since I rooted my 2nd S5. Just a few questions.
Does Marshmallow have the same lag issues as nougat on the S7?
If not, I am going to roll back my QA4 to stock before I root.
How do I determine exactly which firmware came stock on this phone? And any problems with installing and running Xposed on Marshmallow S7?
Thank you all. I love XDA!

I think you can't go back to mm after upgrading to 7.0 but not 100% sure

You can't roll back to marsmallow if you update to nougat its imposible cause the bootloader its updated. for the moment you can't downgrade a firmware cause the bootloader its locked.
Ok thank you each for the reply
Hi fellow Xda members,
I need a tested and confirmed method to root S8 Stock rom CRL3. I never had this phone rooted before, and realised my mistake after updating to the latest December patch, since there probably won't be a root method available yet.
If anyone managed to root CRL3, please let me know.
