Did the flashing wipe all your data? Is the Camera performance any better?

Also, why skip the versions in between? What is the significance of flashing these two builds?

340 is the last OREO build and u hve to be on last 340 OREO in order to flash any one of the 050,053,or 056 stock PIE rom.
about skiping inbetween version- if u r flashing full stock rom no need to follow sequence u can just flash last latest build directly.(for oreo it is 340 version and for pie right now 056)

What about any camera improvements? Also, does the manual update do a factory reset?

SpiralX15 said:

Nop. Didnt affect my data. We are just updating manually, so wont lose data. About the camera the stock camera well personally for me its not good. Back camera is ok, front camera is terrible. Am using google camera port. Thats good. Stock camera's bad.

You are supposed to put them separately. Not together. First 340 zip file after that update finishes put 056.

The 3/32 Camera is disappointing in low light. I tried gcam but I feel that the stock camera takes better shots.

Sorry if I do not understand what you are asking. But I understand you have ota b370 and you have now written nrd90m and you are missing some applications.
So now I hate that Dload the file update.app of the second file should go.
It does 128.MO and in it i see cust.img (120.54MB).
I have rc4 with root browser, I see cust, HW, eu, app, there is everything you miss.
So I was thinking that maybe you should be dload update.app from second file hwdatafull. that's all.
hwdatafull c432b370 with bootloader lock.

Hi, i just get the update today and it was 1,99GB big. I think you have to leave enough space, 4,5GB minimum for the upgrade. It seems there are two Update Packages. Maybe if there is not enough space, the updater just take only one package.

it can take months to roll out on your country. i used firmwarefinder to flash it and everything went fine, batterylife is same as in emui 4.1.2, statusbar is beter for me, i can get my 3rd party vpn icon to statusbar as tile. L21 is european model and theres no other "regions" than eu for L21. theres limited rollout times because if everybody starts downloading firmware same time their server would slow down alot. use firmwarefinder proxy method, send to updater and turn proxy off and download it like normal update from "real" ota finder. flashing took about 10 minutes way faster than B100 -> B132. no data loss, only 1 new bloatware app that i was able to uninstall without root. only thing thats annoying is avast antivirus which came with emui 5, i only use malwarebytes.

Im talking about the size of the download. Usually these minor updates are 200 MB.
Btw, this doesn't even include April security patch.
Just received B25 OTA but when I ask it to install, phone reboots into TWRP and I can't install from TWRP. Later I get a notification that update failed. I tried FlashFire, it detects the B25 OTA but will not install gives message "Unencrypted ....".

To get the stock OTA to work , you need the stock recovery (TWRP won't work).
Not sure about Flashfire?

Problem that I have found was with the Fingerprint sensor. Before I could unlock my phone easy. Now I have to stick my tongue out, while standing on my head, one leg horizontal, and he the other leg vertical. Wiping cache helps a little but not a lot. I removed fingerprints and re-added them. Helps a little.

I don't understand the question. If you're on B25, there is no need. If you're on B19 and want the B25 update, you'll either need to be stock or wait for a flash package before updating, since you've modified some partitions.
The OTA files only work directly on fully stock phones.

Sorry if I weren't clear, currently I have Nougat 7.1.1 and my version is 0B19 and I want to install the 0B25 that was pushed OTA yesterday. I thought I was running B19 stock. I am Unlocked, TWRP and Rooted. If there is something that has been modified in my system then as you stated, I guess I have to wait for a B25 ZIP to flash.
Thank you for your help.

Can I install this ROM?

So I found this on the XDA home page. It says SM-935A is required (I have SM-935U) BUT I thought that model number mostly applies to which carrier you're using...So if I flash the lates AT&T version via Odin can I then update to this Oreo build? Here's the article:

But in case I change my mind, you extract the update.zip and apply update from sdcard, right?

Question: Can I perform an OTA update on my Magisk rooted S10+?

Hi,
I rooted my S10+ using the magisk patch on the firmware. I've read an article on thecustomdroid where it says I can perform an OTA without losing root. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance
Yes it can be. just make sure it's not UI update (just security/fix) update. because if it a new UI update may you not get stable experience with magisk app for incompatible issues
