[OTA] Stock XNPH25R OTA

Here's the new update that came out today - XNPH25R. This has the assert junk removed so you can flash it in TWRP.
NOTHING has been changed in this other than the ability to flash it in TWRP.
Reboot to recovery, flash .zip. Reboot to system. Nothing fancy required. *Flash SuperSU if you want root access.

I'm getting binary update script error by flashing with TWRP

I flashed the stock OTA in TWRP right from my phone. Go to Developer settings adn uncheck the update CM recovery setting and OTA will flash in TWRP. I kept root. I'm not sure if the 4.4 update will kill root, but I doubt it. Thanks for providing the zip!

With the option to update CM recovery via OTAs does that mean we can take OTAs with TWRP installed?

Hey Guys Can I flash this zip file through CWM ???? Please suggest...........
Update = flashed the official cm-11.0-XNPH22R-bacon-signed file & then received the OTA & it's installed successfully even with CWM install.

I think you have to disable that option in developer settings menu, if you want to be able to flash the OTA with TWRP.
Works for me

Updated it using TWRP but once booted it tells me there's an udpate, over and over... update in TWRP seems to work (no fails, only message is "radio image updated")

I flashed the file and when I reboot i´m still on XNPH22R and it also does prompt for the update. I flashed it on twrp, everything seemed ok

Flashed the file with both TWRP and Philz, no error but the Rom version is still 22R !
Can someone post the stock recovery img please?

Which folder was the OTA located in? Is it the cache one at root level?

I couldn't tell you. I got a notification that an update was available, tapped install and it booted into twrp and installed the update. I had to reinstall xposed but kept root and twrp.

OK thx. Wasn't sure if u had to navigate to a certain folder when twrp booted up. Stock OTAs in a custom recovery is new territory for me.

True. I have that unchecked and also had the system update apk frozen just out of habit.
Leave it to CM to allow OTAs to be installed thru twrp/cwm. Living this phone more and more each day.

The downloaded OTA is located in \cache and can be flashed trough TWPR. Unfortunately I get an error of missing apks in \system due to deleting some of them (CM File Manager, PrintSpooler, ...).
I'll try to throw them back to \system and retry flashing.
Nope nope nope, doesn't work. He says blabla build.prop because of changed DPI, but it gave me an error on executing the update binary anyway.

This is what happens when you try to flash the original OTA .zip in TWRP. When flashing the provided zip in OP I don't get an error but like everybody said it doesn't update to 25.

I've got it. Do you need? Texdroider DPI makes an backup of the original build.prop. I restored it and the issue is solved but nevertheless the update binary can't be executed.
Flashed CWM over TWRP: with CWM same problem. I restored original build.prop and it's still complaining about in the build prop.
Okay, seems that my backup of build.prop isn't the stock build.prop but an updated version with DPI of 380, damn. Can anyone upload the original one?

Can you upload the original build.prop please? Are you sure that the old file has the correct cm revision?

Root + OTA

When i root my S7 Edge, how to get OTA updates?
Is there any page to download it?

You can't get ota updates with root, you have to go into the dev section and basically download a rom with the current updates already installed.

1. You can't get OTA updates if you are rooted.
2. You have to flash the correct firmware via ODIN if you are rooted. One page to download the firmwares is this ONE.

never trust an OTA update it will just patch your FW and in time your device will become too slow,I always used this site to download and install the latest full updates using Odin.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935F/
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

I installed TRWP and rooted my S7 Edge. What happens if I download the new stock rom from sammobile.com and flash it using TWRP or ODIN? Will I loose all apps/settings and will the phone still be rooted?

If somebody would like to answer this guy, I'd be the happiest.
I'm wondering the same thing. Though I get by with Titanium Backup for now (even though I don't trust it that much anymore, it just swallowed all my backups when I moved the files through the app, I had to reinstall evything by hand, and I lost most of my SMS/MMS).

Actually you can get OTA updates when you are rooted there is option in xTouchWiz Module when you have Xposed installed that changes the device status from Custom to Official and for me it worked and then i can install the update using flashfire. But i dont know if it works you too

OTA is a Over the air package.
Contains just the nessesery code to patch the current firmware.
You cannot flash a OTA, Simple.
What you can do, is what others have advised. Download the full Firmware and flash away.
There is two ways to do this. Flash everything and have the device wipe all data.
Flash the necessary files for odin with a patched csc file (This will avoid any data being wiped)
Second method:
Flashfire.
You can download the whole firmware package from Sammy (Link the guys posted above)
Then use flashfire to flash these packages straight on the device.
You will retain all Data and Settings etc. You can also replace bootloader
and then flash TWRP again after.
(If i have used flashfire since i have had the device. I have updated Dirty (Dirty is when i dont wipe and keep all Data)
I have done this around 5 times, and noticed my device starting to become slow at responding.
Today i installed the latest Firmware with a Full wipe. (Its advisable once in a while)

Its Simple in XTouchWiz go to Security Hacks and then tick the Box "Fake System Status" Now close XTouchWiz and go to Settings and Status, now it should be Official and Thats it. You can download your OTAs but obviously you can't install it, Open Flashfire go to Flash Zip or OTA.... Done.

Yeah, I tested it myself and there is now chance to flash the update.zip from the fota folder. It did what is recommended: Just flash the whole firmware with the home_csc.

TWRP (NO ROOT) and Official Firmware with OTA updates possible (S7 EDGE 935FD)
Hey, If I am posting here irrelevant, please guide me to the best Thread where I should post it.
I recently installed Resurrection Remix rom on s7 edge. Them ram was good, however, camera wasn't working with stock rom as well as open camera and candy camera apps. It was just showing blank screen when I open any camera app. I reinstalled the stock rom via Smart Switch.
I require a few solutions:
1. How can I get my camera working with Resurrection Remix? Is there anyone who had the same problem?
2. Can I install TWRP to have custom recovery with official rom? And while having TWRP (without root), would I be able to have OTA?
3. How can I use smart switch backup via any other app or software to get it into my phone (which is installed with custom rom) because custom rom do not catch smart switch.
Thanks!

[GUIDE] How to flash the COS 13 update. Even if you get the release keys error

Alright.
I had this problem for a while and I figured out how to flash the update without the need to factory reset or change the update script of the update file.
Even if you get the user/release-keys error message. EXAMPLE:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You have to be using the latest lollipop release before updating. That means you have to be on YOG7DAS2K1 before attempting.
This worked out for me. But it might not work for you. I do not believe it can destroy your phone and switch some satellites off, but still, not responsible if it did so.
Requirments:
You have to have TWRP now or you at least have ROOT and any flashing app like flashify.
Download COS 13 update file. here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995316311
Download the latest CyanogenMod Recovery https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon
Download the cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2K1 full ROM [url]https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960686198[/URL]
Guide:
Make sure the update cyanogen recovery option is checked in developer options.
Flash CyanogenMod Recovery downloaded before.
Reboot into it.
Use the update function in CyanogenMod Recovery and choose cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2K1 as the update file. It might take a while.
Now reboot to your phone. When booted and running, reboot to recovery.
Now you are running COS recovery. Update with the incremental.
That is it.
I hope this works out for you.
EXTRA: How to ROOT and have TWRP as a recovery:
Requirements:
A laptop.
Download TWRP and adb drivers on the laptop and the SuperSU and TWRP on your phone
Download Oneplus One TWRP Recovery [url]https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/twrp-3.0.2-0-bacon.img.html[/URL]
Get any adb divers. This one suffice [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/adb-fb-apx-driver-universal-naked-t2513339[/URL]
Download the latest SuperSu [url]https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip[/URL]
Guide:
Reboot into bootloader: you can do this in many ways. A simple google search will show you how. Easiest way is to turn the phone off and hold the volume up and power long enough for the phone to boot into bootloader.
Connect your phone to your laptop
Run the adb: I assume you are using windows of course. First put the TWRP .img file in this folder. Hold shift and right click in the folder downloaded above. A 'Open command window here' option will be there. Click it and write in the window
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-bacon.img
. A hint: you can just write twrp and hit TAB, it will complete the filename. Or you can rename the downloaded file to just twrp.img
Check your phone, you will be running TWRP temporarily. You now have the option to ROOT only by flashing the SuperSU file downloaded on your phone. If you reboot now you will lose TWRP and get back to the official COS Recovery. If you want TWRP for good flash the TWRP file downloaded on your phone before.
I hope this is easy. It actually is. just follow it step by step.

if you need a guide to root, this means you are not rooted, and if you are not rooted most probably you already have stock recovery, which means you can just install the OTA update without any issues.

As I stated before you have to be on COS 12.1 YOG7DAS2K1. This method should not format your phone or remove any data as there is no factory reset step.
As for the link they are all over the place now. I used the official one. I'll link it for your convenience.

can anyone please pull the stock recovery from COS 13, not 12. I kinda screwed up while updating and now stuck in bootloop.
Update: The issue is resolved. The issue was because of SuperSu 2.46. Installing the latest TWRP and SuperSu 2.66 fixed it. Marshmallow is now rooted!

Thank you very much! After going back to stock and still not receiving the update for more than a week (well at least it felt like a week, Lol) I decided to flash a full COS 13 zip floating around. Instantly liked the new ROM but it had root/symlink issues only to be resolved when flashing a custom kernel it seems. Not what I really wanted so then I stumbled onto your thread and this technique worked 100%! I was on DAS2K1 (flashed thru a custom recovery) already and had several failed attempts flashing just the incremental outright (thru stock recovery)., but by flashing DAS2K1 thru stock recovery first as you suggest then the incremental seems to do the trick.

I did it all the steps, but my phone doesn't not start. After optimizing aplications I have bootloop at "cyanogen modready".
L.E. I think the problem was one of old aplications. After a clean install everything works.

This is the best thing Oneplus one i ever experience.COS13 give my Oneplus one a new breathe of life .This update better than crap lolipop.No Bug for me until now,only google play service need to update twice in play store,its auto reboot itself twice and wholla,super speed UX.The best thing i ever have.I apply update from CM-12-0-YNG1TAS17L Build LRX22G using this method and it works flawlessly
I don't need to factory reset or wipe cache .
I flash full stock ROM cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2K1 and apply update through CyanogenMod Recovery only and nothing else.
Now my oneplus one is rooted and TWRP install using ADB and its fly.All rooted apps is working together with Adaway.
Thanks Cyanogen team for make this 2 years old flagship killer a beast .
Only thing not satisfied is gone signal and wifi status (connectivity indicator ).I need to swipe down to see my transfer data working (what a bummer ).
Thanks so much for this magical guide (y2kkingboy) Yours truly Oneplus one diehard fan.

I was already on cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2K1, however rooted. So even if I had been offered the OTA it would have failed.
Your guide got me updated, first time with no problems.
6.0.1 is such an improvement on 5.1.1, I tried a couple of other 6.0 roms, however this has by far been the most stable and bug free.
Cheers for the tutorial!

I had tried this before and it did not work for me. Kept getting an error saying "the signature file was not a complete file" and therefore it didn't flash. But it may have been editing error on my part. This method works just fine and no need to give up your data either.

Having tried many other ways, I got it done with this instruction.
Thank you!

[STOCK][N][ARB01] H830 20N ZIPs + KDZ (2017-12-01 Security Patch)

First off, a HUGE thank you to @autoprime (for paving the way) and @waylo (for his assistance on getting this going after I found the KDZ)
I am currently storing these in my google drive account, so please be gentle till I have a better host location:
Below are the downloads for the LG-H83020N firmware
Folder with all the LG830 firmware I have so far:
LG830 (G5)
LG-H83020N-Flashable.COMPLETE-ARB01.zip
As always, COMPLETE is 100% stock
Flash COMPLETE zip -> wipe cache partition -> flash Magisk ZIP (or SuperSU if you insist) to root and keep TWRP
OPTIONAL: After flashing, remount /system RW -> delete recovery-from-boot.p to guarantee TWRP sticks
LG-H83020N-Flashable.Bootloader-ARB01
LG-H83020N-Flashable.Modem-ARB01.zip
LG-H83020N-Flashable.Boot.zip
H830N_00_1017.kdz (HUGE Thank you to @Azul Baseem for the upload)
For instructions, follow the same instructions as you would in any other KDZ/ZIP thread. For Example
Feel free to hit thanks.
Also feel free to hit up autoprime's All in One thread HERE

Thank you very much bedwa!

Kdz link updated!

Thank you @bedwa as always.
I fear my only true contribution here is MD5 confirmation of the files:
LG-H83020N-Flashable.COMPLETE-ARB01.zip 8a49733028bef23d775bf542eb62b726
LG-H83020N-Flashable.Boot.zip ddea9d814f66266de34a154f0c7f6b41
H830N_00_1017.kdz 732b717af8d77501342be445002c4fae
Edit: Also, since someone will definitely miss it in the title, this is confirmed to still be on Anti-Rollback 1. You're free to flash back and forth between 20A if you need to Dirtycow your phone again.

Keeping me honest, I swear I'll remember them next time.

Thanks for the upload. I was able to update just fine thanks to this.
BTW... It still has H83020m mentioned in the body of the OP instead of H83020n.

running 20N , so far so good, just notice a small problem with GPS , it is a bit spotty today. @bedwa : Can you make a slim down version ? like removing LG/TMO/Google stuffs ? and reduce /system partition size ?

That would be trickier. All of these are the partition images. To make a slim zip like that I'll have to either unpack and build or unpack and attempt to repack. I might, but not likely at this time.

Thank you so much for making this. So happy to be rooted and on the latest build thanks to your hard work. =)

I am running on rooted H83020a with TWRP and SuperSU installed. In order to upgrade to 20N by keeping all my current settings and data along with root and TWRP, what are the steps should I follow?
1. Take a complete backup using LG Backup
2. Boot into TWRP
3. Flash Complete Zip (H83020N) from TWRP
4. Flash SuperSU Zip
5. Reboot System
6. Restore the complete backup from LG Backup
Does this work okay? Or, do I need to do anything else, like Wipe Data/Partition etc.? Sorry for the noob question.

Hello,
If I flash boot and bootloader, will it lock my bootloader and brick the phone if I am on LineageOS?

Does this work okay? Or, do I need to do anything else, like Wipe Data/Partition etc.? Sorry for the noob question.

Backup is always good, shouldn't have to restore it as it's updating from a previous version and doesn't wipe data when upgrading. But that's the correct process with or without #6.

Hello,
If I flash boot and bootloader, will it lock my bootloader and brick the phone if I am on LineageOS?

Shouldn't, but it would always be a good idea to backup beforehand. I would however only flash the bootloader, as the boot is the kernel and will be different than what LineageOS uses though.

I just boot into TWRP and flashed the complete zip and then flashed the latest SuperSU Zip. I pressed Reboot System after that, but, I am now stuck in a boot loop. Phone shows LG logo and reboots again and again.
I tried the Power button + Vol Down method, but, it doesn't work too. It gets to Factory reset screen, and after Yes and Yes, it goes to back to boot loop again. I am able to get into Download Mode and Fastboot Mode. Can I do something from here?
Can someone help please? Anyway to get into TWRP or recovery?

Sounds like you will need to LGUP or Uppercut your phone back to stock 20A. Then dirtycow back TWRP. Then try flashing the new ZIP again. Skip Supersu this time and try Magisk instead.

Thanks. I flashed back to 20A using LGUP and KDZ file. Need to dirtycow back TWRP now. I'm still wondering what went wrong in my process.
1. Take a complete backup using LG Backup
2. Boot into TWRP
3. Flash Complete Zip (H83020N) from TWRP
4. Flash SuperSU Zip
5. Reboot System

Do I need to reboot to TWRP once after flashing instead of Reboot System directly after flash? Any idea?

No, rebooting into TWRP wouldn't do anything. There's a script you might need to get into and delete prior to rebooting. But that only ensures that TWRP stays.
"After flashing, remount /system RW -> delete recovery-from-boot.p to guarantee TWRP sticks"
That having been said, I've done this before and STILL not had TWRP stay. Some recommend wiping /cache as well.
OR, again, use Magisk instead and don't use SuperSU.
Even if TWRP didn't stick, you should have been booting into system fine. You wouldn't be rooted, TWRP would be gone, but system shouldn't have been messed up. So something got borked, I'd have to guess, because of SuperSU.

You need stock rom (not root) to install patch update.

I know this is old, but I am having the same issue with the OTA update failing at 18%
I have an OP8 Pro and it is on Android 12 stock from with rooted boot.img. My device has down all the Android 11 updates and I use Oxygen Updated and use Magisk to patch the boot.img before rebooting. Has always worked.
But I cannot update from C.21 to the C.33 it fails in the process. Did you all come up with a fix or found a solution?

Are you using the LocalUpdate.apk or the build in updater under "About the phone"?

Yes. Once I download the OTA, I go to local update to install but it fails to complete.

Again my question is: Do you go to the About Phone screen or do you use the manually installed local update?
Did you try the full package instead of ota?

My apology
I would have to say no...
I am aware if I go to the "About device" and click on the banner above, it takes me to the update. And it shows C.33, but in the past, I never downloaded it that way I manually downloaded with Oxygen Updated.
But I do come back to the System Update "about" app to click the gear icon to manually install so I can keep root before rebooting.
Also I have for the hell of it tried the "About device" and did the download and install, knowing it will reboot and remove the root....But that also fails, and in the process

Thx for the link, my friend....
I will get into this or look at it tonight when I get off work.
I did NOT try the full update I could not download it. I have a global OP8 Pro, and all I can download in Oxygen Updater is only the C.33 incremental. If I change the app option, the only full download I can get is C.16
I think TechiBee posted it when he talked about C.33, but when I looked at these links, only full C.33 was IN/EU version. I am not sure of this, but I think I can use India (IN) or EU firmware to do a manual update. Have you heard or know if that is doable...just asking, not holding you to it ?
Thx

Thats odd. I cant find a full update for IN2025 too.
Maybe you can try this with the OTA too?
Code:
Inside the zip file: open "payload properties.text"
and change one line from:
oplus_update_engine_verify_disable=0
to:
oplus_update_engine_verify_disable=1
And save it.
I think you can use the EU version but i dont know if you will face problems but i dont think you will. Its doable for sure.
