Has anyone applied this update?

If you took the update can you try the one click root in dev. Interested in seeing if it still works.

yea, we won't really know if this is a root exploit patch until someone takes the hit.
Its been confirmed by multiple people that the update does not address root or loki.

Yes...it doesn't patch root. If you are rooted and do not have a custom recovery installed. You can accept the update and it does nothing. If you have TWRP installed, you need to flash the stock recovery, accept the update and then flash back to TWRP after.

I had the latest rom installed from here and now there is an update from verizon that fails to install(Phone rooted). What should I do or is there a newer build availble to us rooted users?
You would have to un-root, update, and then re-root. That is the fastest way.
You are getting an update from vzw for your s4?

There was some mention of an upcoming update in this thread:

Your questions would be better asked in the S3 forum, then.
I would not take any updates. Verizon and Att are surely going to block loki and you could be stuck without a root method.

Software Upgrade Assistant fails
SUA acts like it knows my phone is connected, even says searching for updates, but never lists my G2 in the window of devices. Drivers are current and using LG cable to a main USB port.
Does LG post changelogs or would this come from Verizon?
I would think VZW since they are the one changing LG's software.

Most idiot-proof way to upgrade atm is using the Verizon upgrade utility that is included with the phone. Just hook it up to your pc, follow the autorun prompt, and then proceed to download it and it should install the update automatically.
Dumb question probably... Do I need to do something first if coming from malladus rom like revert to stock?

Hey JPC, are you gonna upgrade the cm11 tonight with the OTA out now?
This is the new thread for waiting for root for Android 6.0.
Currently we have 5.1.1 rooted and people are just waiting for them to release root again for us.
If anyone is creating early bounty's for this than you can let me know and I will add them to the top of the thread.
I'll put up $20 for MM root.
I'll put up $5, it's all I can really spare.
i really wasnt looking for root on 5.1, i think verizon had to hurry up and put Marshmallow out because of root
I'll pledge $20. Gave up root for mm and regretted it rather quickly.
Root will only get easier now that it's been accomplished.

If @tungkick or someone cracks the bootloader for 11b, or does something like done on the G3 with the bump method, we should then bee able to get twrp flashed and custom roms flashed so we won't have to worry about cracking vzw's 22a at all. We could then flash any rom we'd want, including marshmallow roms. Am I right in this thought process? And those that are on 22a would just have to downgrade to 11b using lgup refurbish mode.

It didn't work for me. Gave me an error message saying something like TOT Anti-rollback enabled. Even though it didn't roll back, it showed my software status as modified in the phone settings. Had to reflash the mm kdz today to get the software status back to official.

I pledge $25 for bootloader bump with that we can flash a modified version of marshmallow. But will take root on MM also so $20 on that also. Count me in.

Why didn't att just play nice and update to V3? Instead they update To V4 so I can't flip flop between t-mobile firmware and there's. Does root still work? On the other hand, I can flash Verizon firmware I guess.

I can't root, looks like it's back to the drawing board. It figures this happen as soon as I feel it necessary to root my device......
I advise everyone to not take any OTAs after the first August patch so you can still be able to root and flash roms. It isn't a problem for me since I wasn't planning on rooting this phone again anyways..

@raremind couldn't root on BL4. It's unfortunate how we can't root on API2, but if the developers are willing to find out a new way to gain root access on API2, then it wouldn't be the end of the world for anyone who wants the latest OTA but still want root.

Verizon pulled the change log, it was just the April update. I wonder why they would bother to push the April update if the Oreo update was close, that tells me Verizon is going to screw the S7's on Red.
