[Q] Is root persistent through OTA update?

I'm looking to root my phone but I don't want to flash any new bootloader or custom roms. I'm under the impression that I'll still be able to get OTA updates if I do this. My question is if I download and install an OTA update will I still have root on the phone or will it remove root? Thanks!

I was still able to receive and apply the OTA after rooting, but the OTA did cause me to lose root. But re-rooting was pretty painless.
Its sure than rooting phone you receive OTA and can install it?? If yes, I want to root my phone, only root, i dont want to change anything more for receiving OTAs.
How can I do? just only root, any link to the safest way?
Is the same way when I receive an OTA and i have to root again?
many thanks.
1. You can use an app called OTA Rootkeeper. Use it to hide root before you accept an OTA, then use it to restore root after.
2. Yes, you can use adb commands (possibly the Nexus 4 toolkit as well) to temporarily flash clockwork recovery and obtain root. You will need to unlock the bootloader though, and that will factory reset your device.

Good advice for OTA Rootkeeper! If I head down this path I'll make sure to use that. I'm still looking around for the best way to root without unlocking the bootloader or factory reseting.
Superuser contains a built in 'try and preserve root' function which worked well when I updated to 4.2.1

Root Marshmallow Lgh340n?

Anyone know when will be released for lg h340n Marshmallow root
I wanna know too ??
i too
I think the only possible root method is Chainfire's systemless root.
But you need to unlock the bootloader (warranty void) and install TWRP. But as always read about it:

The question is how do we unlock the bootloader( or we just tick OEM Unlock from Dev settings) and how do we enter in fastboot mode to install twrp?
I am trying since several days to somehow install TWRP. And nothing works so far for the H340N .
My next idea is to downgrade again to v10h, then try to root (via kingroot i guess?). Change from kingroot to SU, then install Flashfire. Through Flashfire you should be able to install a OTA Update, such as Android 6.0 without loosing root. And then when you have root and the option to OEM-Unlock you should be able to install TWRP through the TWRP-Manager app. Or am i wrong at some point?
Would be nice to just have access to fastboot mode in marshmallow though...
A new version of kingroot was released yesterday. Can someone check if this version can root our device on marshmallow?

No, because there is not a fastboot mode as far as i know
Sent from my C6903 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I've seen some people with LG g4 with the same problem on MM. They can't root withou tunlocking bootloader. That sucks balls. Seems to be that the root needs to be on the boot partition, which is inaccessible without unlocking bootloader. The thing is, will OEM UNLOCK unlock bootloader? That's it? :/
Normally you can do "adb reboot-bootloader" and then "fastboot boot twrp.img".
But "adb reboot-bootloader" does not work with V20a, it just starts a normal boot.
Any luck so far?
Any News???
I would greatly appreciate if someone got a solution to root the H340N with android 6.0. Kingroot doesn't seem to support Android 6.0... :/
Regarding the "systemless root", anyone tried it with this phone and Android version?
I want to know to, and doeas anyone know how to unlock he bootloader, i have allow oem nlock ticked, but how do i actually do it, it doesn;t help that lg blocked the bootloader and recovery
root marshmallow lg h340n
Any news for root lg leon h340n?
Up, any2?
Hi,
...any information on how to apply root on this model would be appreciated, thank you.
Hi,
I successful root my LG-H340n marshmallow a few month ago. It's a mix of several tips found on Internet.
Using USB download mode and "LG Root Script v1.3", it's possible to have an access to partitions and change recovery partition to TWRP. Using the same way I change also aboot partition (with one compatible with twrp).
After TWRP installed, I use it to install SuperSU systemless root.
And It's magic now I can use my SD card and Apps2SD to create symbolinc link to my apps and free internal memory !
I have some notes and links, if you want, I can write a tutorial.

Root without flashing TWRP

So, does anyone know if it's possible to boot twrp without flashing it and then root from there? I'm only asking because it would be nice to retain the ota feature in stock. Yet, would rooting make OTAs not work?

OTA with unlocked bootloader

Hello
I tried to find the answer, but I wanted to be 100% sure.
My phone is on April 8.0 and my bootloader is already unlocked.
I wanted to know, if I update via OTA directly to July (1152mb), will it erase user data ? And/or relock bootloader ?
Thanks in advance !
Nope, just unroot and disable tweaks before the ota. After that you can just reinstall magisk via fastboot.
Not if you follow the magisk guide to OTA and reroot.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/root-mi-a1-oreo-8-0-disabling-ota-magisk-t3728654
Note the warning about not modifying the system partition, even remounting it as rw.

Temp Root?

Is there a way to temporarily root my 6p, like kingo root? This is my mother's phone and I don't want root access permanently; I need to edit build.prop. I'm hoping to fix a call quality issue and revert back to non-root, and receive the final OTA updates. I've tried every method I could find, expect disabling noise canceling through build.prop. Thank you for the help
I'm not aware of a temporary root solution for the 6P.
Alternatively, you could flash TWRP via fastboot, reboot to recovery, pull the file via adb, edit, push it back via adb (make sure permissions are correct), reboot to bootloader, and flash stock recovery.

You could flash TWRP, back up boot.img then flash magisk. After you finish just flash the boot.img then your unrooted. If you want to go back to stock recovery put a copy on your phone and flash it in TWRP. I'm sure theres other ways but this is what I would do.
