Got a notification for a system update a few hours ago, it's the Android L update. Running 4.4.4 unlocked & rooted on XT1095 Pure. Does anyone know if this update removes root/unlock, or will I be the first victim?
Also, on an unrelated note, does GravityBox for KK still work in L?

As far I know every OTA breaks the root, you will need to root again using the brand new CF method for Lollipop.
Xposed is not supported on Lollipop, so, Gravity Box will not work on it.

Hey Guys!
So i am on a rooted pure edition 4.4.4 Moto X Pure Edition (XT1095).
I do get the OTA update for 5.0 but I have not downloaded it because I have rooted the phone. So my question is , can I do a complete unroot using SuperSu and then continue with the OTA?
Is that safe? If not , what is the best way to get to 5.0
Thanks

Should work just fine from 4.4.4 to 5.x It did on my 2013 Nexus 7 which was stock rooted + unlocked bootloader. The only thing I ever had to do was re-root after and you'll have to do the same. The same root method and file works on 5.0.........I just used it a couple weeks ago on my X which was on 5.0 out of the box because I just got it.
Once you're on 5.0 though it's more work to get updates. Google changed what they're looking for when checking the partitions (can't remember exactly what offhand) and now if any modifications have been made (rooted, added/removed system apps, etc.) the OTA's will fail. On my N7 I had to wait for the factory image to be released and I just flashed the system.img in fastboot. I'm not sure what will be needed on the X since the only images I see so far are for 4.4.4

Hi all,
Currently running
Version - 4.4.2
Baseband - g900aucu1ance
Build - Extremebe Debloat v1.8
I'm looking to update to 5.1.1. Should I flash back to stock 4.4, take all the updates to 5.1 and then look for root/custom roms?
Thanks!
Hi!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) running android 4.4.2.
It's rooted and with CWM.
Is there a way to put xposed on it without updating the android version?
I really really really would want to keep 4.4.2 and not change android version.
By looking around I have seen that samsung phones with stock roms sometimes have trouble with xposed. Is that true for android 5.0 and newer versions only? Or for 4.4.2 as well?
I am scared of making a test "just to see how it goes" because it's the only phone I got, even if I have backup from Cwm and all ...
Thanks in advance.
U will not have issues or any need to update your Android version
Xposed for kitkat is 2.6.1 and 2.7 build
Happy installing
