17S update - can't root phone anymore - LeEco Le1 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi,
Can anyone help me, please?
I used to have the version 16s installed on my phone but after the forced update, got the official 17s version installed.
Lost root access and got a lot of chinese apps installed.
Now I can't root my phone anymore. I've tried a a lot of methods/twrps and can't get the phone to boot to twrp recovery.
After flashing the recovery.img, phone only reboot again to the chinese rom.
From what I'm reading on a xda topic, it seems the same as this guy:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/leeco-le1-pro/development/letv-x800-ruschrom-1-0-25e-t3224702/page41
Thanks for the reply. My phone used to be rooted, too (Lollipop), but became unrooted during an unwanted OTA update and can not be re-rooted ever since (Marshmallow). None of the King/o/root/etc. apps did the job over ADB from a pc or installed on my phone. Flashing supersu zip from TWRP got my phone into a bootloop last night from which I could only get out by re-locking the bootloader and installing a stock ROM. The bloody 17v update notice keep popping up and I have no choice but to let it install sooner or later. If I ever manage to re-root my device, I'll try your method.

Thank you for your reply, it is CN version.
I was able to root the phone again, by doing fastboot commands manually.
flash recovery, flash misc
After that, I was able to enter recovery mode.

[Q] Android marshmallow ota update failed.

Last night received an ota update to marshmallow. Size is around 583mb. After finishing the download. It asked me to install now or later. I hit now, and it rebooted and stock recovery opened and installation stated. After a minute it rebooted without any error back to android 5.1.1 it said it there was an error updating and I have to download the ota again.
I haven't flashed custom recovery or rom or any other mods. But have super su installed. No xposed even. I just ran twrp recovery temporarily without flashing to install super su. Bootloader unlocked. Any inputs how to get this fixed?? Battery is about 62%

Try to use the unroot function on SuperSU. If this doesn't work, I guess you'll need to flash the whole stock rom...

Till u r rooted, you can't update normally. Either try u rooting or
Look for the twrp flashable Marshmallow thread instead if you want to install twrp.

Unrooted and flashed stock rom from fastboot commands and system status is still Modified. Downloaded OTA update and it installed itself and system turned to Official from Modified.

Lost root after flashing 4.1.6, Please help.

Hi, Can someone please help, I must have done something wrong. Flashed official 4.1.6 update through twrp successfully, but lost root, tried to flash super su again (ver 2.86), but got stuck in boot, logo froze.
Flashed 4.1.6 again, phone works but no root still.
Is that a wrong super su version or did I do something else wrong?
Help will be really appreciated.
Regards
After flashing a full update you'll always have to reflash your root solution. I guess you mean SuperSU v2.82...
Use the official 2.82, found here (there's a link to the flashable zip). There's also a link to a version to try if you're experiencing bootloops.
You could also try the release candidate, found here.
Magisk all the way
1. Wipe data
2. Flash ROM
3. Flash root package, either SuperSU or Magisk
4. Reboot
I see no reason why wouldn't this work for you

Hi,
Many thanks.
Before proceeding, should the super su app also be removed from phone?

When you flash the rom it will already be uninstalled

I think, I was not able to explain, Rom is already there, but I just flashed 4.1.6 update, and root was gone.
Just wanna avoid all those data backup, restore, register all new banking apps etc, it time consuming and painful.
I am pretty sure, root can be restored, when I have an unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery working properly.
SuperSU is still there in apps but can't open as says, root not available. However, can uninstall this if that is required.
Cheers

You can try to uninstall it through supersu app but make sure to keep you boot img. Then your phone will be fully unrooted, go into twrp and reflash supersu/magisk

How to get OTA updates after rooting my device?

I own the 6GB Ram version of the phone and wants to root it so as to use Titanium backup to restore all the contents of my previous phone.
But the Problem is that we are still going to get some big OTA updates regarding camera and maybe more bug fixes.
I know the general procedure for rooting the device i.e. first unlock the bootloader then install a custom recovery then root.
I just wanted to ask if I just install back the stock recovery after rooting the device then will I get the Ota updates?
And I am sorry if any similar question has already been asked, I searched but didn't find any. Thanks

im using twrp and magisk for root. i still get OTA updates. but only the full updates, the 1,5 gb size
after that i need to flash twrp again and then install magisk again too.
but no data lost or anything so if you can live with that, its no biggy.

i assume you know how to get root ? unlock bootloader, flash twrp, install magisk or supersu ?
well from there its just the same.
getting ota updates see attachment.
after the update you are back to stock recovery without data lost.
so just flash twrp again and install root again, thats all.

1. Unlock Bootloader and Flash TWRP
2. Flash and Download APK Magisk 13.3 (Root + Pass SafetyNet)
3. If there is a new update go to OnePlus 5 Downloads
4. Boot into TWRP and Flash the new update.
5. Everytime you flash a new update you must also flash Magisk Root.
6. Done
Should we flash twrp recovery and root zip right away after flashing full ota package??

You don't have to flash twrp recovery again.
You can flash a root zip right after flashing the full OTA package

How to stock update with rooted and TWRP?

Have a LeEco Pro 3 (US Version) running 5.8.19s official stock version, bootloader unlocked and official TWRP installed. But my system update fails everytime eventhough it shows there is new update 5.8.21s but phone boots to recovery in TWRP and asking for password. I have tried several times but its the same thing over and over again. Am I doing something wrong? Is there some different file that I must flash?

You need the official recovery for update to work

You can update to 21s on the US version (727) from TWRP with a few modifications to the updater-script file (see the below post/thread):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72815409&postcount=48
This will remove root but it keeps TWRP so you should be able to just reinstall root through TWRP.
Thank you. Will it keep my data and apps intact or will it erase them? I don't want to lose all my important data and setup.

I did a wipe before updating but it should work without wiping as the update zip file is the official OTA with only a modified updater-script. Do a backup from TWRP before you try it and if anything goes wrong you can revert to that backup.
Running into the same issue..did your script and that worked. Thanks for that.
Flash 19s using TWRP and needed a somewhat official way to get to 21s. Use the script of d/l the official 21s update and pushed the modified zip to sdcard to get flashed in TWRP. So hopefully this update, updated whatever it needs to update and maybe it will fix my other issue... why when I flash Lineage base ROMs they show my battery only at 50%
I followed the above instructions and replaced with the updated script however TWRP is giving me Error 7 and a quick google search is saying it is due to problem with updated script. How do you guys fix this?

Unable to install OTA updates since root

Yo all,
I've rooted my op5 and installed twrp recovery, and ever since - after downloading OTA update and rebooting, it always boots into TWRP recovery and when i'm rebooting into system i get notificaiton that the update was failed.
i don't recall i had any issues with TWRP and ota updates with my old op3, is this normal?
any suggetions on how to keep my phone rooted and get the automatic updates to work?
Thx:fingers-crossed:

That's normal. If you are rooted, you won't be able to install ota, instead you need to install full zip

Too bad
Once I'll flash the update and my root will be gone, will it work? I mean, it's related only to root and not to TWRP?

Just when flashing full zip, flash SuperSU or Magisk before first boot and everything will be fine. If you flash SuperSU or Magisk before booting, you will need loose twrp either.
I'm rooted with Magisk and can do OTA's no problem
