Root/ TWRP OTA updates - Verizon LG G3

If I am rooted and have TWRP do I need to be concerned about OTA updates? If so what should I do?

I uninstalled the "system updates" file from my phone. It's a blue android icon & 3.4mb in size. Another forum somewhere discussed this and I believe that should work. I used an app called system app remover(pro) - it has a recycle bin and holds apps in there for you in case you need/want to re-install them later. Any root app delete should work just fine though.

You can freeze the update app, but an OTA won't work anyway with a custom recovery.

NEO Global 2.3.4 OTA Available (rooted remain)

[EDIT]
*OTA from .368 rooted (global) fail!!!
I have just reflashed 2.3.2 global -> root with Gingerbreak 1.20 -> Update OTA 104Mb --> Successful (Rooted remain)
*...removed...*
Maybe it's the same thing that happened before, rooted terminals will not get the update via OTA unless they have a German firmware...
I have NEO with 2.3.3 4.0.A.368 (root), but I cannot find Update software (OTA update) in Settings menus. If I update via OTA will I loose root?

Fail .
I'm also getting the Failed after Failed message... already attempted 5 or 6 times.
I do have a backup of the /system/app files I modified after rooting the last version, so I'm going to restore them to the phone and retry one more time.
I'm trying not to lose all my settings and stuff I did with a complete wipe in order to maintain root...
EDIT:
meh, I backed up all my stuff with titanium and I'm going the old way of flashing back to a rootable version, use gingerbreak and then updating.
I guess a clean install never hurt anyone
I think best option is Flashtool

So we need to re-flash the 2.3.2 (global? german?), use gingerbreak and then search for the OTA, as we did with the 2.3.3???

Just like what happened when the 2.3.3 got released: if you messed up (replaced) any of the apk in the /system/app, then my guess is that you need to reflash it. The OTA fails (not sure if it's doing some checksum of the apk files).
I'm in the process of updating to the 2.3.4 (downloading right now) from the 2.3.2 Global that I just flashed and rooted with gingerbreak.
Regarding user data, apart from a couple of settings that Titanium might miss, a restore from that app will take only a couple of minutes and all apps and data will be back. (I'll take the chance to keep my system clean and not restoring some apps that I used only once or twice and were sitting there wasting space).
It's probably the safest and fastest method if the OTA fails.

No.
I can confirm that an OTA-update from rooted 4.0.A.2.368 to the new 4.0.1.A.0.283 can be done successfully.
Did it just now and now I have 2.3.4 with root permissions.
Have not touched any of my apps in /system/apps folder.

Well thanks for the explanation! I didn't erase anything from /system/app, just uninstall some pre-installed things (only the few that appeared in the uninstall panel), so tomorrow I will try with OTA and see what happens, elsewise I will made a backup with Titanium and reflash the 2.3.2...

And I guess that's the trick, not to touch the /system/apps. I changed some system apps (maps, facebook, etc) and also the framework files to install other themes. I couldn't make the update OTA.
So let me get this straight if you mess with any apps in the /system/apps folder the update won't show up at all or will it just fail? I have generic trade german and it says my phone is already up to date when I check for OTA updates.

Are ATT software updates safe for a rooted phone?

Earlier this week I bought a Samsung Galaxy S III for ATT. It already had Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 on it and so I rooted it. Well the day after rooting it I get a message in my notification bar that there's a new software update available from ATT. Am I safe to do this update since my phone is rooted? I doubt the update is anything major, but does that make a difference?

You can apply the update if you're rooted using the method in that thread or by installing OTA Rootkeeper before you apply the OTA. If you apply the OTA directly, you'll need to go back to stock recovery, then install CWM again when it's done. You'll also probably want to backup the Google Search widget (I forget the exact .apk -- search the forums) and restore it after to avoid losing Universal Search.
But the easiest way is to just flash the zip in the thread above through your CWM recovery.
As for the contents of the OTA: It updates the kernel, bootloader, lots of applications, some system libraries, wpa_supplicant and it's firmware (I think that's for wifi), and the modem. I've got it installed and didn't notice a huge difference, but you might. The thread above also includes separate flash files for the kernel and modem in case you want to try just those.
Good luck!

No. There's a zip file there with the OTA but with the bootloader and kernel updates removed. You can flash that to keep your kernel. There's another zip file there with just the bootloader if you want to update that, too. Just flash both (No Bootloader No Kernel, the Bootloader).

UPDATE:
okay so I followed the steps in the thread you provided, and when I go to flash the update zip in recovery mode, i get an error and it aborts the installation. Heres the error:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") =="
d2att" | | getprop("ro.build.product") =="
d2att"
E:Error in /emmc/I747UCALG1_OTA.zip
(status 0)
Installation aborted.
Any idea as to what this may mean?
I am also getting same error I was on team epics recovery then saw it wouldn't work for that recovery so I flashed a new recovery and still get the same error.
Tried flashing the no boot loader zip. And the no boot loader and no kernel zip

It means you're using the Team Epic recovery and not the one from clockworkmod.com. Try installing the 5.8.4.5 version of clockworkmod.com recovery from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28612095. That link has zip files you can flash from your current CWM recovery.

Download OTA Rootkeeper from the play store, save root, then install the OTA. Reboot and OTA rootkeeper restore root.

Download the zip file for recovery, apply it using your current recovery, reboot recovery from the advanced menu, then apply the OTA zip.
Or use OTA Rootkeeper as also suggested. I prefer my OTA zip personally, but either way will work.

Okay. Wow. So after a lot of trial and error (i think i bricked my phone somehow in the middle of everything, but its okay I found out how to fix it) I have managed to get that update applied. Theres one last problem though. I applied the update by flashing it in CWM recovery. I know I have the update installed because now under baseband version instead of saying I747UCLEM it says I747UCLG1. And Ive tested the google search widget and it's still giving me local search results so that's all good. The problem is that in my notification bar the ATT software update notification is still there. I have currently postponed it for 8 hours, but its still there and the only button I'm able to press is the continue button. I dont want to press this because im afraid the normal ATT update will install over the modded one and the google search widget will mess up and stop displaying the local search results. Also under about device, when I click software update the option for "check for update" is grayed out. Any thoughts on this?

What does it say under build number? IMM76D.I747UCALG1? If not, then somehow you only got the modem installed.
I have the update applied, but I had frozen AT&T Software Update in Titanium Backup, so I wasn't getting the notification. I just tried unfreezing it and checking for an update and was surprised when it said there was one! I postponed it, did a Wipe Data for AT&T Software Update in TiBu, then rebooted and now all is well. When I check for an update now it says I'm up-to-date. So try that.

Yeah, under build number it says IMM76D.I747UCALG1.
I'll give what you said a shot and see what happens. But one thing first, what's TiBu? And also, I'm about to flash a custom ROM on my phone, so is the update issue something that can wait, or should I take care of that before I put on a custom ROM?

Sorry, "TiBu" is my shorthand for Titanium Backup. Chances are any custom ROM you install will remove the AT&T Software Update application, so you won't need to worry about this anymore.

Oh okay. In that case I'll go ahead and put in that custom ROM and report back when everything is done. Again, thanks for the help and patience.
Okay, so I have applied the ROM and everything is good! Well for the most part. At times when there isn't a WiFi signal available and it has to use mobile data, the 4G LTE doesn't work. It will connect to HSPA or 3G. And it happens in areas I know has 4G LTE available. But other than that everything seems to be working good. Just thought I'd share in case anyone was thinking of using the AOKP ROM.

[Q] Keep root when updating?

Hi. Now that I am succesfully rooted, I'd like to know whether it really is possible to keep root vith Voodoo Rootkeeper. In the tutorial it says so ("Install Voodoo OTARootkeeper and backup SU. This will help you to keep root when On-Air update comes to your phone, where you may lose Root, if this is not installed."), but in the FAQ in says otherwise, I think ("Not directly by upgrading via OTA (Air)"). So Which is right?
Depends on which variant you have. If u wan to do an OTA update, i suggest do not remove any bloatware. Update then remove bloatware cos u get an msg that lg do not support rooted devices.

Well not every OTA update will be successful, mine was unsuccessful. I heard from frnd who has sony mobile that, when u root and remove some sony apps, and try to update u get error that "device is rooted, software update is not supported". So, try OTA update without removing any bloatware, u may be succesful in updating. Or, there are cwm backups thanks a ton to cmahendra, download one and flash in cwm :good:

I tried to update my P760(german) by OTA without removing anything before. The result was the "device is rooted..."-message. So I think the reason for this message isnĀ“t the removing of bloatware.
Well then is there someone who succeeded updating P760 from v10a (EUR) keeping root? I don' t really want to flash those pre-made cwm backups.

Whats wrong in that? I could not root V10G and could not update from V10C to V10G due to region problem. India V10G released but I cannot update due to some issues. Rom was showing showing V10D as latest in India update and asking me to go back. This means I was not able to get V10G via air and could not even root when flashed with offline method.
So I simply restored (flashed) CWM Backup of Rooted V10G shared by DarkFable, which is clean and stock and ROOTED. He updated in Dubai and kept Root with Rootkeeper. Wiped Data and shared CWM Backup of clean Rom.
Enjoying since few days. Be practical my friend.

i just tried updating by installing voodoo rootkeeper, backing up su, temporarily unrooting, then running the OTA installer. failed rather quickly with the dead android logo (removed battery to reboot). i think it still detects a rooted environment after the reboot and stops the upgrade. everything came back normally after the failed upgrade.

If people are as paranoid as I am, and if my phone functions properly, I will not install a cwm backups from someone else just to get those few bug-fix updates. Who knows if something might have been changed in that backup (intentionally or not by the owners or by a PC warez), say in a simple case of a DNS that point to some script kiddies's PC instead of mail.google.com?

Pokemon GO is detecting my phone as rooted when I definately unrooted it

I own an Honor 5x, which I used to have rooted running a TWRP recovery and SuperSU. I wanted to update my phone to marshmallow, but it was an OTA update so i had to unroot and go back to the original bootloader. I did everything needed and got my phone upgraded to marshmallow, and was then hoping i could play pokemon go, but for some reason i am getting the error where it says the game does not support my device, the exact same one that i got when i was rooted. i double checked that i was unrooted by downloading literally every single root checking app on the play store, and all of them have classed my phone as unrooted. i dont want to root my phone again as i have nox for rooted stuff now, and it was a hassle extracting th e recovery.img from the update file as noboby else had it, so i was wondering someone here could help me
thanks in advance!:good:

OTA update does not wipe the entire phone, you need to download the full update and manually wipe your phone and install the Full update to totally remove SuperSu.
You could also uninstall SuperSU from the apps settings before taking the OTA to avoid this problem

Two possible ways imo...
If you don't want to root then
Extract and manually flash stock boot.img, Cust.img and system.img and you are good to go without any data loss (but make a backup to be sure if something goes wrong).
Second is to root your phone, and use an app like 'hide my root' to hide your root from Pokemon go and you are good to go.
The third is to root and unroot using the inbuilt function of SuperSU.
