Its probably the update to NJ7. Yes, you can root afterwards.

Weird, my .157 update says I need a computer.
I'm staying away from it until someone drops the rooted version I can flash.

Bases on previous experience -and nothing else- updates that require the PC Companion and such a big download indicate the entire ROM is being overwritten and you'll most probably lose root and recovery.
I am in egypt and i just got the update. I have my phone rooted. When i try to download. After download finish it says verifying then it says could not verify. Any help please?

If you update the firmware from 108 to 157 you lose the root.
On this subject, you can read the last few pages of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/development/newroot-z1-t2807092
U believe me or not but I kept root
I just received the update but it says could not verify the update. Not rooted nor bootloder unlocked. Help me
No, keep 108 with root
I have 133 with root. But update says "can't verify ". Is 157 worth it? Differences?

You would had to have upgraded to 5.0 using this way: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...w-to-update-to-g900aoca-5-0-keeproot-t3076803 otherwise there is no way to get root after applying the OTA.
It is still possible to downgrade, I think.
haha, why are you screwed without root?

Y is there no way to root if ur on 5.0 unrooted?? So this is pretty much gonna kill the att s5 xda section than??

Currently there is no way to get root after updating because ATT decided to continue to lock the bootloader. It's normal that you lose root after a carrier released update. It won't kill the xda section because you can still "keep" root updating to lollipop. You just can't "achieve" root after upgrading to lollipop

You took the update without being rooted?
If you didn't follow that thread while you updated and you're on the 5.0 update unrooted you won't be able to downgrade

Yep but they've found root for the Verizon S5 on 5.0 and the variants are close so yes it's a waiting game

Is it easy to get 5.0 if ur rooted on 4.4.4?? Im having a problem with my phone overheating so if send it back it would probably come back with 4.4.2 or do u think someone will eventually figure out how to root it running 5.0
