I was wondering if I should use orangefox recovery's in-miui incremental OTA update survival while using xiaomi.eu Ron. Should I keep it enabled or will that break something?
In my experience, xiaomi.eu's roms don't reflash the stock recovery, so I don't think it's necessary. The Updater app on EU boots into the custom recovery and flashes the new rom, like you would manually. You only have to reflash Magisk or other post-install stuff.

I have Phil Touch 6.0.4.5 CWM installed.
I put this on to try CM11. Didn't like it so re-flashed the the latest official ROM and its been running fine for a while now.
Theres a new official update out I wanted to try but flashing via CWM it says "Installation aborted".
I then tried the older official ROM and this too aborts hower CM11 installs fine.
Any ideas? I am Wiping ROM and clearing Cache.
You cannot flash official updates with custom recovery. You need the stock recovery for it.
A word of caution. The new OTA update most likely has knox. If you plan to try out other custom roms, refrain from flashing. If you are only a stock rom user, flash away.

Thats odd. I could have sworn I reflashed the official rom using CWM.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Can I still enter standard recovery having CWM on there or do I need to reflash via a standard recovery via odin?
You need to flash one using Odin. If you have a flashable recovery zip file, you can replace the recovery image in the zip file with a stock one.

hi, i have a redmi note 4g and i want to update it to the new version (6.6.1.0)
but when i click on update, it reboots and stucks on the twrp screen. what do i do once in the twrp screen? i have wsm tools installed.
Stock update works only with stock recovery. If you want to install MIUI from TWRP you have to install it like any other ROM (download zip to sdcard, boot in TWRP and install manually).
Be aware that you will lose every modification you did in /system partition, including WSM.
Also note that MIUI v7 will soon be available for this device.
This page contains stable and developer versions of MIUI for you to download. They are localized in many languages (not only chinese and english like those directly from Xiaomi), dev versions are updated weekly and already rooted.

Thanks bro..I don't mind losing data. Can you tell me the procedure to install it? I mean wipe dalvik, and?
If you want to upgrade MIUI you don't need to do anything, just install new rom, no wipe necessary. You won't lose your data, only changes you made in /system. If you want to start fresh, there is an option to factory reset, you can do it before install, but again if you come from MIUI and want to install newer MIUI this is not necessary.
Download the zip from the page I gave you, copy it to sdcard, press install button in TWRP, locate the zip and install it, done

Incremental updates are only from one version to the next one (eg 5.8.14 to 5.8.21). Just be sure that you come from the right version. If not, install the full package, the results are the same

Can i install miui 7 stable the same way? I'm coming from 6.6.1.0. Just go to recovery and install from zip?
I download the system update for OnePlus x oxygen os 2.2.1. But when I reboot it for installation, there's a message "installation failed". What's wrong with the file? It seems to download everything properly. But error occurs during installation.
Is it rooted? Which recovery r u using? Twrp or stock?

What have you already modded in the original installation? If your system was stock the update wouldn't fail. Please be more specific so people can help you. If you've kingrooted or flashed twrp, the update will fail...
I don't know about the OP, but I had the same issue when I tried to OTA to OOS 2.2.1. I applied all my hacks through TWRP but always booting TWRP by ADB and never flashing TWRP to the phone. So, I have unlocked bootloader, Developer settings, stock recovery, Boeffla, CameraHAL. With this, OOS 2.2.1 OTA gave me "installation failed". Shouldn't it have worked since I was still in stock recovery?
Thinking it could be the kernel I then tried to restore the original kernel by going to a TWRP backup I made immediately before flashing Boeffla, and restoring boot.img. To my surprise, I then lost all Wi-Fi functionality.
In the end, I downloaded the full OOS 2.2.1 ROM from OnePlus and dirty-flashed it, stacking it before the newest versions of Boeffla and CameraHAL. Phone is working OK, no bugs noticed so far.
I still haven't flashed TWRP nor rooted the phone. In my configuration, what's stopping OTA from working? It would be nice to have OOS3 OTA, since I still don't trust the backups I'm making.

If you modify even a single bit in stock rom and revert back, updates are definitely going to fail.
The only solution to receive OTAs is flashing stock recovery with stock rom with locked bootloader.
Or you can manually flash OTAs using TWRP.
I made several backups of my stock rom before testing mods, but when I restored and tried to perform OTAs, it always failed while installing.

You just need to wipe cache from the stock recovery in order to install the ota updates , customer care babe told me

Hello guys, I unlocked my bootloader...now would I get the ota updates? It's not rooted and on stock ROM.
If no then please tell me how to revert back to locked bootloader.

I have tried wipe cache method and doesn't works at all if you have rooted your phone and unrooted back.
And the OTA should work even with unlocked bootloader, if you have not rooted your phone before.
If you want to lock your bootloader again, just follow these steps,
1. Goto Settings -> Developer options
2. OEM unlocking -> turn it off
Error in installation of OxygenOS2.2.1
Having same issue, I doubt why it is not getting installed. Not rooted and not even touchted the kernel. Is it a bug or it requires a flash ?

I have the same problem. Brand new phone, out of box, Oxygen version 2.1.0.
My SM-G900T is running Lollipop 5.1.1 rooted by installed twrp-3.0.2-2-klte + SuperSU using odin.
I am planning to update it to Marshmallow 6.0.1 (G900TUVS1GPK3) using odin. After the update, I believe the phone will be unrooted. Should I install twrp-3.0.2-2-klte + SuperSU again in order to bring back the root?
Yes, is the short answer. It's a pretty simple process, just flash the update, boot back to Download, flash TWRP, boot to recovery, then flash SU. However, after some experimentation, I'd recommend an extra step, especially if you're planning to run Xposed. After flashing the update, boot into the stock recovery and let the phone boot normally after the stock recovery does its thing. Without this step, Xposed breaks Wifi Calling, and my guess is there are other things which also break, since I get force-closed messages for a couple of T-Mobile processes if I don't let the stock recovery run. Once the phone has booted, just boot back to Download & then flash TWRP & install SU, and Xposed if you want it.
I'm not sure if you'll also need to wipe or not, all the updates I've done have been MM->MM. You can flash those without any wiping or restoring because they don't touch /data. I've found that switching between stock & modified MM roms without wiping appears to work but later causes severe performance problems. Between stock updates, I've had no problems even without wiping.

Thank you Invisiblewave. I understand that I need to reflash twrp, but since I installed SuperSU already and I think the update would not delete/uninstall it, if I flash SuperSu again, will there be a problem?
The update will remove your previous SuperSU install, so yes, you have to flash it again if you want root.

Thanks for the tips! I just did the same upgrade and wanted to make sure everything worked afterwards.
use this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...l/root-how-to-root-sm-g900t-firmware-t3358190
That guide is incomplete. It needs an additional step after flashing the update to let the phone boot once normally, otherwise WiFi calling doesn't work. Flash update, reboot (stock recovery runs and does stuff), reboot to Download, then flash TWRP, SU, Xposed, etc.
I want to install twrp, but I also want future miui updates. Is there is any way I can backup stock recovery and kernel and restore them when I need to update miui

If you need the stock kernel and recovery, simply dirty flash the same stock ROM.
