I recently received the MIUI 9.6.3.0 system update. My device is rooted with Magisk installed and I am also using my stock recovery (I never replaced it) and I was wondering if I can install this update safely without uninstalling Magisk. I don't have a PC to fix any damage done to my phone and that's why I am asking.
Ota never worked for me with magisk. So I always do the pain of fullrom+twrp+magisk. [emoji22]

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to update my phone with the latest T-mobile OTA update (I'm on v20F and I think the update is v20H), but every time I try to install it I get a dead android screen and my phone restarts with no update. I think this is because of the custom recovery that I have installed. How do I remove the custom recovery so that I can install the update? Is there away to update without removing custom recovery (and without losing all of my data)?
I'm using Voodoo root keeper so that I can keep root after the update.
Thanks!
Bump, I'm still unable to update, and I'd like to!
You can't get the update because you have deleted apps from the system.

So I just have to reinstall the bloatware apps and then I'll be able to update?
Yes just re-install the bloatware and that should do the trick.
But i would recommend Kuma's themed Stock ROM for locked bootloaders.
It's using the latest update.
You can't install OTAs if system has been modified, is to say, if you have root access, you won't be able to install the OTA.
A way to install the latest version of the stock Rom is to use the the LG update tool for PC. So, you don't lose your data and system's modifications don't mind.

I've got a rooted Nexus 9 (WiFi) with TWRP installed. A few days ago I got a notification to install an update. I was surprised, as I didn't think OTA updates would come through once TWRP/root was set up. I tried installing it, but it just gets stuck at the TWRP logo.
I'm guessing that you can't just install OTA updates, so I have two questions:
1. How can I install the update (without losing all my data)?
2. If I can't install the update, how do I get rid of the "System update downloaded" message that keeps showing up?
It's been a few years since I've been in to this kind of stuff, so forgive me if these are dumb question
Thanks!
If your using systemless supersu and have an unmodified/untouched system partition then Flashfire app, maybe able to apply the update.

Otherwise you will need to flash factory images (which can be done without wiping data) to update.
Where should I grab updates from and how to install when rooted?
OTA says device is modified in an unathorised way.
Thanks

You can find firmware on updato.com. I've never seen Samsung post an OTA that you could flash. I haven't had to do this yet, Samsung is very slow to update firmware, but what is plan to do is back up the data partition with twrp. Then flash the new firmware with odin, reinstall twrp. Then root and restore the data partition with twrp. This all assumes the available twrp will be compatible with the new firmware, which may not be true since the new firmware hopefully will be oreo. But you get the idea, it's not going to be as easy as just flashing an OTA.

I had rooted my xiaomi note 10 lite global just after I bougt it (year ago or something like that). I dont have TWRP installed (I remember I had a lot of problems to install it) and I am using Magisk. By now my phone is full of data and it is screaming there is stable 12.0.3 update available. Simple question- can I update it by system update or there can be some problems with bootloop, etc?
hello ! i think you can update it, but you'll lose magisk. To be sure, i recommend you to save all of your data in case of some problem.
Hi, how do I keep magisk and keep my realme gt rooted after an OTA? Last time I had an OTA I updated and my root + magisk were gone, I had to make a backup of my phone and reroot and reinstall magisk. I don't want to go through that process again, and on magisk there is an option to install to inactive slot, but I am scared to try it since this is my only phone and if its bricked then i'm screwed, and it doesn't seem like anyone else has tried it. My PC was reset so I would have to get all the adb and fastboot drivers and stuff all over again and I would probably mess something up somehow. I need root because I use Google Pay often.
My phone is a Realme GT 5G converted from CN to EU, with Magisk 24.3 (not alpha I switched from alpha to stable)
after going through this:https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/ota.html I can't even do the Magisk app → Uninstall → Restore Images step since it comes up with an error message saying something isn't found
Thanks if anyone can help
