Will this work without flashing TWRP? Can I just boot TWRP using fastboot, then flash SuperSU 2.62-3 and reboot? In that way, after reboot it will be system recovery and as SuperSU 2.62-3 is a systemless root, there won't be any modification in /system. Thus, I can receive OTA updates in future directly.
Did anybody try this with XT1550?

You don't have chance anyway after rooting. You have to have Flash the firmware again to receive OTA

Yes, you can do it that way, I've done it several times. Like someone said though, it's simpler to just flash TWRP and be done with it rather than wait for OTA's that you probably can't flash anyway.

In an earlier post you indicated that you can simply do a full unroot with SuperSU and receive OTA updates. Did that only apply to 5.1.1 and not 6.0?
Tel864 said:
I was able to d/l the update, but had to unroot to install the update. If you're using SuperSU to root, it's a simple matter to use the SuperSU app and do a full unroot, then just root again after the update.

Same question. Coming from a Nexus 4 phone, it was necessary to unlock the bootloader first. According to the instructions here, that is unnecessary?

To root you will need an unlocked bootloader.
Any one?
Rooted xt1550 with supersu 2.62 and then deleted moto bloatware, now phone stuck on black screen after rebooting. Any help abt deleting bloatware?
Seems fine..but
just done this and boot up looks normal but seems forever to boot up. It has not boot up yet, what is the estimated time to wait?
Does it matter if TWRP is configured as "Read Only" or not?

@abhijeetc Excellent instructions. One recommendation is to address the issue with the "read only" TWRP option. I am sometimes presented with this option during TWRP boot (not sure why this option is not presented every time since I never check "don't show again"). I am not sure if "read only" makes a difference or not. But I can confirm I was soft bricked after enabling read only and flashing 2.66. I did not wipe Dalvik/Cache either. I was successful with 2.62-3 but was not presented "read only" option either. Also, you may want to recommend a Nandroid back up prior to any attempt flashing root. Just a recommendation.
I notice under developer settings (tap Build Number a bunch of times in the "About Phone" section to access developer mode) it has the option "OEM unlocking - Allow bootloader to be unlocked" as an option. Does that make this process any easier or is it necessary? I bought my phone straight from motomaker.
So I have converted my Note for to developer and have an unlocked bootloader and installed TWRP through Odin. I have tried a few times to gain root by installing SuperSU through TWRP, but it just manages to keep looping my phone after it installs. Is there a way to install SuperSU without doing it through TWRP as I think that's the problem?
Also I wouldn't be able to install a ROM until I gain root correct?
Thank you for all of your help

So yea.I don't mean to hijack this thread or anything, but I'm having thebsane issue. I've converted to Dev edition, installed TWRP, and am currently running CM 13. However, whenever I try to use an app that requires root, it says that I don't have root.
I've tried flashing the latest Super SU in recovery, downloading Super SU from the play store, and I've tried flashing the Emotion kernel (when i try to flash that, my screen goes black and I'm returned to my recovery home)
What pre rooted ROMs are out?
And are my issues rooting because I flashed a 6.0,1 ROM before getting permanent root?

Now my only issue is that once I was rooted and everything I wanted to flash CM13.
I shut down my phone and went into TWRP, I restored and the tried to install CM13+Gapps and it just went into a black screen and started over. I rebooted, but now I'm in a boot loop.
So I am going to start over and regain root, but do you know if I did something incorrectly? How would I go about it? Thank you.

Hmm im not sure (i'm running stock + Emotion kernel). But if you want to go CM13, you dont need to flash the Emotion kernel.
EDIT: you did a full factory reset (via recovery) before you flashed CM13 right?

Cm13 is pre-rooted, root is embedded in the rom, superSu isn't needed, you can turn it on in developer settings.

Yea, try with stock kernal. I don't think you need to flash SS when flashing CM13 though
For me, when I try to flash CM13 through TWRP it'll get to saying "MTP Enabled" in the terminal window, then black screens for a few seconds, and reboots to TWRP. It also doesn't flash CM13, and I'm at a loss for what to do

I posted here this past Sunday and got a response. However, I haven't been able to find my recent post since then. Was it deleted by accident? What's up, I just don't know...
Here it is again:
So my gf has an s5 that she kept from Verizon as she switched over to T-Mobile. It has an egregious amount of bloatware on it, but everything works fine: from radio to data, from calling to you name it. Thing is, she can't download anymore apps onto it and the "apps to SD" method provided by the Verizon stock ROM only does so much justice (limitations indeed).
I took it upon myself to attempt rooting the device with no avail. An SM-900V towards a custom TMO ROM, but how?
I tried towelroot, KingMethod, Odin, etc... no luck.
Before I go even further and risk creating a paperweight in the process, could anyone give me more insight into the best and/or successful method into rooting. :good: cheers.
(and thank you to that unknown person for spitballing me an idea... I tried... but the device failed over Odin)
Install twrp for klte with Odin. Twrp will root the phone. The first time you boot into restore mode, and then Reboot system it will ask you if you would like to install Su. Just click yes, and you are rooted

Wait, really? There's not need to unlock anything else, or flash/load something else? I mean, I've read that you can't unlock the bootloader and shouldn't flash a bootloader or radio, but to go straight for twrp and then a new ROM afterward? Or twrp, then boot into system? or download then flash ROM via Odin?
So I have the latest Odin (or do I need an earlier one?). It detects the phone, but I'll try to go straight to TWRP tonight and see how it goes. :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:
Going to use the latest TWRP from here :highfive:
I'll let you know how it goes.
Thank you for replying, btw I'll click the button :victory:

From what I know, in order to get the ota your bootloader needs to be the stock one, but I could not find it outside of full kdz packages.
I have not rooted yet waiting for this specific update (given the security fixes).
I would suggest you to backup all of your apps and settings with an app like Titanium Backup, flash stock, install the ota, reinstall TWRP, root and magisk and then restore apps and settings from the backup

The way I had to update was to flash 21a and then take OTA's up to 21d because when I flashed 21c back to stock using TWRP and tried to update it gave me an error and then rebooted and said I can't update because I had rooted the device.

Here's the baseband version with RS98821c: MPSS.TH.2.0.c1.4-00047-M8996FAAAANAZM-1.88674.1.101802.1
The numbers are slightly different at the end compared to RS98821d , but I'm not sure what if anything might have changed.
maybe, for getting OTA should we just get unroot? How to do it properly?
If recovery is not the stock one, it will not be possible to install the OTA.
Alternatively you might need to wait for someone to make a flashable zip you could flash with TWRP, but given the fact development on this phone is not too active you might need to wait for a while before is available

I was also planning on flashing the complete 21c zip so that I could take the 21d OTA. Glad to know that might not work.
Anyone know if it would be possible to install just the stock 21c recovery image? It's my understanding that having a custom recovery installed is what makes the OTA installation fail. If TWRP is what's getting in the way of installing the OTA, wouldn't replacing TWRP with stock recovery solve the problem without touching the system? If anyone who knows more about this stuff than me could chime in, I'd appreciate it.

First I flashed the magisk uninstaller and rebooted back to recovery. Then I flashed the 21c COMPLETE ZIP and didn't flash magisk so it would replace TWRP with the stock recovery on reboot. Then I rebooted and when I tried to update it went to the stock and threw up an error then rebooted. Upon reboot it displayed a message saying that I couldn't update because my device had been rooted. So I rebooted back in to bootloader and flashed TWRP again. Then I flashed 21a COMPLETE ZIP and no magisk so that the stock recovery would replace TWRP. I rebooted and went through setup and took OTA updates until I was on 21d. Then rebooted back into bootloader and flashed TWRP. Then rooted and we've through setup. I tried every other way but this was the only way that worked for me. I hope it helps!
should be an easier way. Did u see some changes to the radio?
Some of you may remember that last year I had the misfortune of installing the Brightpoint ROM on my Unlocked G5, which completely messed the phone up by not allowing it to connect to AT&T's LTE. It was a process to re-flash the older ROMs/Bootloader and then rebuild it to a stable 21c. I had used it for a while like that, and the only problem I had was that when ending a voice call (HSPA) it would take a while to change back to LTE.
I ended up going with the S8 over the summer (Samsung discount + Note 2 trade in) which got it for $18/month. I've been using it ever since and the LTE to HSPA Voice to LTE change-off on the S8 is done within a second, unlike the G5.
My mom had been using an unlocked Samsung S5 for almost a year now, and it's constantly dropping calls, and this past week it froze on her and required a battery pull, so was thinking of having her try out my (unused) G5 to see if she liked it more. When I turned the G5 on today, I updated all the apps, and then installed the 21d OTA update. The hand-off from voice to LTE still is not as fast as my S8, but seems to be improved from the 21c firmware.

After self reboot music plays normally but if I click pause and wait until first stand by mode, the problem returns. Want to ask you guys to check if you have the same problem or I should download full version of 21d and check if the problem still exists. Thanks.

Hello everyone !
I currently have a H870 european LG g6.
I want to root my phone but I don't want to install TWRP.
I want the lightest and "as stock as possible" way to root.
Is it possible? Thanks a lot for your help !
Your NEED to unlock bootloader. Then ADB to root.
Why not have twrp installed? Great for backup restoring flashing latest root list goes on.
If you want a rom which is 'stock as possible' install Fulmics rom. You do need to unlock your bootloader and use TWRP to install the rom tho'.

?? He just wants root. Nothing else. No ROM.
Aight if you don't want any rom, you still got to unlock your bootloader cause you need to install TWRP to install magisk or supersu. Which root app do you prefer?
I have the US997 and want something similar. I want to root the stock rom with Magisk and still be able to take an OTA. Ideally, unlock, flash TWRP, root, and then flash back stock recovery. This is possible correct?

Yea you can do that. You can keep the stock rom if you want but you will need to flash TWRP to install magisk. Magisk comes with a .zip file which only can be installed with TWRP.

Nope, you always need a custom recovery to flash SuperSu or Magisk.
Anyway, why you don't want the custom recovery? You can always remove it by flashing the stock one.

Thanks! I wish somebody knowledgeable would post an "Ultimate Guide to Rooting your LG G6" thread and make it a sticky. There are contradicting/incomplete instructions on when to press and release the Volume & Power button, when to disconnect the USB cable, etc.
I believe many simple questions on flashing recovery and rooting will keep coming back until a correct, complete and detailed step-by-step guide gets posted.
