Hi,
I thought that after rooting OTA won't be available but I just got a notification about an update.
Is it safe to click "restart and install"? will it keep the device rooted?
if not, what's the easiest way to update?

Last time I updated, I noticed that TWRP took over the updating process if you have it flashed.
While updating, TWRP wont let the updating script to replace the recovery partition, so TWRP remains after the update, after that you have the option to flash more zips if you wish to.
I'd recommend you reflash SuperSU after the update.

Should I download the OTA or full firmware?
Does it make sense the OTA is 1.1 GB?

I dont know what makes the OTA so large... I could be wrong but it is probably an OTA you would get if you were to be updating from M-N or something.... I just went right for the full firmware package, if you never used flashfire here is all the instructions https://flashfire.chainfire.eu/ but its pretty simple, click the + button at bottom right, click flash firmware package, select the files to flash and it will start doing its thing, I chose not to flash recovery when you get to that point, I was concerned it was gonna flash the stock recovery so didnt want to do that....
I flashed the OTA but now my root is gone

Last time I ran the update OTA, TWRP ran the update script just fine...
Hey guys! I have enrolled to beta program to get 7.1.1 so now I am on 7.1.1 October 5 patch. But I got a security update patch and I thought that I've done nothing with my root to the /system so I tried to update my phone using restart & update function in "System Update" . It brought up TWRP with some failed script. Now I'm on October 5 patch and I don't have any notification about system update and it shows that my system is up to date. How can I get and flash the November 5 security update? Please help

It says that flashing factory image will prevent getting future OTAs. So should I check that webpage every month to get the security updates? Os there a way to get OTAs back?

Well actually now I got the OTA. The problem is I don't know how to flash it. Because FlashFire is not working anymore.
If you can figure out where is downloaded to I am sure flashfire will flash it, When mine was downloaded I couldn't find the file in system/cache or anywhere else so I gave up and just flashed the whole firmware package.... If you find it, let me know how it goes...

Yes it makes sense. These are not incremental OTA zips that you may be used to from previous Nexus devices.

This is a full OTA patch. The quick explanation is that these OTA zips will update over whatever you have installed (custom rom, stock, rooted, etc) and will patch every partition to the zips OTA level. You could be on OTA #1, 2, 6, 11 or whatever, the zip will update over each previous update.

I think it is in data/ota_package/update.zip. I can see it with root browser but FlashFire doesn't see it.

Supposing you have no other mods installed and no other changes to /system have been made, unroot, reboot, then see if you can adb sideload that update.zip. If it fails, you have two ways on how to do so successfully and without Flashfire like you asked.

Hi,
This guide is based in my first post about how to do it with the Moto G4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4/how-to/guide-simple-ota-update-rooted-unlocked-t3510126
(Read it for full info).
Then, here the updated info for the Moto G5+:
1) If you are in NPN25.137-33 and like to apply the last OTA, but you have rooted and/or flashed a custom recovery (TWRP) + custom kernel, then you can.
2) Requirements: original SYSTEM and BOOT partitions. If you have flashed another version, then restore the originals. You can use any backups from you, or you can download from here: http://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6-Tz_7kDyxsZnVNa0pldnhndG8
(Thank you to GtrCraft: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72387571&postcount=15)
3) To apply the OTA download this ZIP and install it from the TWRP recovery (it's not required to have the TWRP flashed, you can start it from the fastboot util): http://www.sendspace.com/file/7w75rw
This file is the original OTA (shared by the user olive23) and patched by me to remove the check for the fingerprint of the running firmware. Then it can run over the TWRP.
Warning: Don't install this OTA if you don't have the exact version of the required firmware.
4) After install the OTA, reboot and check the new version. At that point the ROM isn't rooted. Then, you need to re-root.
That's all!
Tried flashing and it fails.

I have the same US model and this is supposed to be for it but it didn't work for me either, got errors during flash of OTA zip in TWRP that various partitions weren't accessible &/or verifiable. Even tried it a second time after a full restore to stock and had similar errors. I restored SYSTEM too (not sure that our rooting process works for systemless yet, meaning it would change SYSTEM), so that wasn't the problem in my case. Restored stock again and will wait to see if I get OTA normally.

Thanks. I wonder why I haven't gotten anything and had phone since it came out on 3/31. I'm on NPN25.137-33 with a 4GB XT1687 from Amazon ($299 full-price without ads) on AT&T if carrier matters. Rooted or not we should still get the notifications as you have.

US variant XT1687 4/64GB on Sprint but no OTA notification. Maybe I should just wait another week before flashing this. Not sure if there is something in the SIM the server notices and stops updates on some carriers. But maybe the SIM is how they decide, not sure what else they could go by other than IP to detect the carrier.

I also have XT1687 4/64G US on 25.137-33 + root & TWRP, and no OTA notification.
So, is there a way to go to -67 (flash over TWRP, restore back to -15 stock)?
I could not understand the right answer from all the thread on the subject.
Sorry for this noob question: I have just rooted a brand new phone. After the first login the OTA warning popped out so I downloaded it. When finished I got a loop on the recovery; I fastbooted boot and got my phone working again ... what do I have to do? Thanks.

Flashfire doesn't fully support Oreo yet so that's a no go, same with TWRP. ADB sideload might work.
I just flashed it this morning and had no problems.
I flashed a couple of hours ago official OTA package via ADB. No problems till now.
I took the plunge and flashed the 8.0 stock factory image the done a factory reset after to make sure and it been great ever since turned off animation and it's nippy just wish battery was about better but I'll give it a few days see if that goes

It is true that the OTA is out there. I confirm it because I signed-up to beta program to get the update and two days later I opted out to see if this is the latest official OTA ROM and I didn't get the update. So if you don't want to wait you can do the same it's safe. You can check the latest OTA here: https://developers.google.com/android/ota
The version is the same I have. 8.0.0 OPR6.170623.013.
I can confirm that jd1639's method works for people rooted with TWRP.
- download OTA (https://developers.google.com/android/ota)
- run Flashfire 60.0 (free version is OK)
- when asked "A system update has been detected", cancel
- Flash ZIP or OTA
- uncheck "restore boot and recovery images"
- press "EverRoot" and select "Inject SuperSU" and "Preserve recovery"
- Flash
- wait patiently
I tried flashing the modem FW using "Flash firmware package" on the OTA zip file. It rebooted and the screen went black for many minutes. I had to hard reset.
Can anyone confirm the 8.0 baseband? I have M8994F-2.6.39.3.03. I know that's the baseband for the 8.0 developer preview, but I wanted to make sure it was the final.

No. There is no such problem.You can do it with any of the two ways if you didnt get the OTA until now. 1) Sign-up for the beta program install the update and then opt-out of it. 2) Flash the OTA files from Google to your phone. Or 3) But these are rumors and I can't be sure: An update will come at 11 of September with new Version of Oreo 8.0.1 with better support for Carriers (it is 8.0.0).

Just unlocked, rooted (w/Magisk), and installed TWRP about a week ago. I'm on the stock ROM with the Feb security update. The March security update is pushing to my phone but fails install due to the previous mentioned items. I'm reading that a few problems are popping up that are contributed to the update so I'm holding off on installing it for now. How can I get it to quit trying to install it and showing the notification in the status bar? You can't dismiss the notification and if you reboot it tries to install the update again..
How did you install TWRP and keep it across updates?
Thanks for the response! I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, but I installed TWRP and magisk while on 8.1.0 and the Feb 2018 security update. A week or two later the March security update was released and pushed to my phone as an OTA but it fails install due to (and I'm guessing) the unlocked bootloader and root. Now I constantly have a failed install message in my notification bar and it won't go away. How can I keep the phone from attempting to install the OTA Update knowing it will fail?
the ota update is failing to install because your phone is rooted. the bootloader can be unlocked, but otas will fail to install if the os is not completely stock.
if you manually flash the march update, whether it's the ota or the full factory image, the notifications about an update being available or the failed install will go away.

Let me elaborate:
Right now, if you install TWRP permanently, you don't get any OTAs. So you must install a full image. When you install the full image, TWRP get's wiped. So you always have to install TWRP using your computer. That's a real hassle for me.
Or is there any easy way how you can install a full image, while keeping TWRP or reinstalling TWRP on top without using a computer?

I'm not sure if this is a question to me or the OP!
Me? No, there's no need as once flashed any OTA notification is redundant and no longer displayed. Anyway, I usually dl and flash the new factory image when it's posted online. The whole process takes maybe 20 mins including the dl time. Also, if there are any "new issues" with a release, as the OP is suggesting, it's just as easy to go back a month with the previous factory image (easier as it's already dl'd)

Good point, it's fairly easy to revert to the previous version if problems crop up. I'm going to go ahead and make the plunge. **edit** installed the March image and reinstalled TWRP and Magisk, so far so good.
Cool. Hope it stays that way.

You have a few options. You could factory reset, then see if you get your OTA. You could also lock the bootloader, which wipes your device as well, then, yes, you will get normal OTA's. Or, you can adb side load the OTA zip from October, then November, then December to be up to date. Or, you can fastboot the factory images to get up to speed. Or, you can fastboot into twrp, then flash the OTA zips. And there ya go

@Badger50: He doesn't have to install all three, but only the December OTA. Since the OTA zips Google makes available for download are full images they include all the patches from previous months.

Have you flashed TWRP? If so, you cannot update via OTA. This only works with the stock recovery.
You have to flash a full OTA via TWRP or flash the factory image with fastboot if you are using TWRP.
And if you don't use TWRP, you still can update manually. Why are you waiting for the automatic update in the first place?
I have unlocked bootloader, my phone is not rooted, when I try to update my phone tru settings and Sysrem update it starts and than stops (couldn't install update)

This has nothing to do with root, but with TWRP. Have you flashed it or not?
You can try to flash the boot.img again, too. Extract it from the factory image and flash it with fastboot. Of course this only helps if you have messed around with it.
If this doesn't work you can try a factory reset or flash the update manually. See https://developers.google.com/android/images for instructions.
