NOOB Question - OTA after rooting and TWRP

Hi all,
Sorry for the noob question.
Can I receive and install official OTA updates after rooting and installing TWRP ?
Thanks.
NO!
Ota
Oh. Can I flash the ota zip from twrp?
Kindly guide me as I am clueless.
Thanks
You can receive OTA with TWRP, but not if you're rooted. My method of getting OTA is by keeping a stock rom zip on my sd card. When an OTA comes out, I flash the zip, breaking root, boot into OxygenOS, accept the OTA, it should install, then I reboot to TWRP and flash SuperSu.
You can flash the OTA from TWRP, but when I tried that, it said I was on the correct version in about phone, but it still kept telling me there was an update available.
Here's a link to stock roms, and OTA zips.

September 2016 Ota over systemless root

So here is my setup:
Stock firmware (7.0), stock recovery (only booted twrp for root, not flashed) and systemless root. I have a few root apps, no xposed, only simple stuff.
I've just received the OTA notification and I'm wondering what should I do. Can I simply install the OTA and reapply root afterwards? Flashfire is an option? Do I have to flash any stock image before doing the OTA?
Really appreciate if someone could help me...
Solved. Close thread.

OTA Update Root

Hi everyone ! I'm here because I want to do an OTA update. But i'm root and I have a custom TWRP and the ota file. If I flash it from twrp it will be working ? (Doesn't matter if I need to reroot and reflash twrp) Thanks !
you need to extract stock recovery from you current fw, and i am not sure if even then ota will work, I think you need full rom and flash it from huawei recovery
Install Custom B602 rom by persona, you won't regrete

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

I received ota update notification. I downloaded the zip, it is npn25-37, currently my phone is on npn25-33. I have magisk root and twrp. I wonder if I can flash the ota update zip in twrp? Thanks

It will not work, OTAs require the stock recovery. Since you hace TWRP there is also a chance that it might have mounted your system before, so your system image isn't vanilla anymore and the OTA will fail to apply. First try flashing stock recovery from here (search for the version you currently have, which is -33) https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/firmwares-moto-g5-plus-t3593160 and then apply the ota. Since the firmware you're on is quite outdated, you'll probably have a couple more OTAs on the way.
Now if that doesn't work, you'll need to back up everything you have (apps and data) and flash system, oem and recovery, and then apply the ota updates, then restore your data.
