You can install any of the touchwiz based ROMs in the development section
or
you can install the OTA and then root it again.

Hallo.... Guys, new android updates are coming. After root its not possible to get OTA update. What is the plan ? i mean, this thread its going to be about the ways how to update our beloved ZOOM to the newest firmware.
QUESTIONS ARE:
It is someone going to work on root for 4.3 - 4.4 ?
It is better to "stay" on stock firmware ?
How its possible (where to download) to flash the stock ? (unrooted)

Hey.
My first Sony device. Have been reading about z2 in forums for some days.
I had my device D6503 on 4.4.2 Nordic and now rooted with easy tool and working.
However I get ota update notifications from Sony update center and I assume it is an 4.4.4 update.
How do I update without losing root access. I must have root because of adaway and some other apps.
This seem some different from Galaxy devices and tools used for that matter. Z2 is a fantastic device tho.
Do I need to download latest firmware from another thread that I found in this forum which collects stock ones, and use flashtool.net to flash firmware? In case, what option to thick when beginning to keep root whilst it updates? And if I can keep apps data? Maybe titanium to back up, if only choice.
If some one could send me to the right direction, as I wasn't able to find what I was looking for.
Takk you
The easiest way is install recovery, download 4.4.4 rooted zip from development section and flash the zip through recovery.

There is no like mobile odin method or something that flashs and keeps the root? Or ota survival mod?

Some superuser apps have ota survival but some people are having issues mounting system after the update.
This is a stock rom only rooted with recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2929402
Also, this tells you how to create a rooted update package yourself http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2933155
is possible preserve the root updating the fw with mobile odin? How?
Thanx
updating firmware will clear root access, just get re-root the phone once you've updated assuming it's android 5

Yes. If you are in KK stock untouched, then the L upgrade should only just upgrade your software version without wiping anything.
I'm curious to know that I could install ios emojis and upgrade to the latest version of Android. But some of the apps I use won't work if I root my device. So my question is can I upgrade my android version with custom settings (fonts n stuff) so that all apps work normal.
@ultrahalf
IMHO using SuperSU by far the simplest way to unroot your Android.
