How to receive OTA updates after root?

Hi guys.Id like to ask you a little info.I rooted my Samsung S7 Edge with stock fw Nougat.I cant get updates via OTA.Is there a way to fix it?THX in advance.
once you root your device, a file in the operating system is changed so that you can not get OTA updates.
Currently there is no way to fix this.
you can try smart switch or go to sams mobile to see if there are any new updates.
currently the last update has February 1, 2017 security patch.

How to root S7 Edge SM-G935U with July '17 Security Patch update?

Security patch updates

I have t mobile s7 edge SMG935T android security patch update is of march 1, 2017 and naugat 7.0... My query is that i am using this set since 6 months and did not receive any update. On the other hand my friends have received 2 times update on s6 edge. How will i manually update any security update for better performance.

Any reason to stay on 6.0?

Hi all. I recently received a new S7Edge (ATT). The phone is on the March 2016 update of MM. Wondering if I should update ot or not.. I plan on rooting the device, so, I'm not sure if it's easier to root with MM the it is N

I don't think having Marshmallow or Nougat shouldn't matter. I think your phone has a snapdragon on it so unless the snapdragon's root method has changed, you will just flash the rooted G935U rom and it will get updated anyways.

Shouldn't matter. Whether in snapdragon or Exynos. There are numerous benefits of nougat, even moreover with Oreo, which is expected to be updated sometime between the 3d quarter.

No reason to say mm,nougat is far better than mm,and oreo is better than nougat

Rooted s8+ sm-955u security Q

Used SamFail method so have Nougat. I just noticed my security setting says last updated in 2-2018. I know I can't receive OTA updates but is there a way I can receive security updates without compromising my root?
