I saw you can unroot in supersu. I was wondering if i unroot would i be able to factory reset with no probpems and would all bloatware return even though i removed them?

No the bloatware will not return. You need to use the back to stock method. This will set the root checker back to zero and make the phone look like it's never been used.

What if I do a factory reset with a rooted device using stock AT&T firmware? It will brick?
My question goes because I'm gonna sell my device to a friend so I just want to leave it as it is, I just need to change Google account.

No. You can do a factory reset with a rooted g flex on any carriers firmware without issue(aside from losing all data). A factory reset won't unroot the device but I think you can do that through the superuser app itself.

I really liked the phone at first but I'm really sorry I bought it at this point. I miss my Sammy! I'm praying for loki and custom recovery:crying:

Yeah bro not being Abel to flash any roms right now and how this phone is right now got me bummed. At this point im willing to trade it for a note 3 or even the new htc one.

Guys. Honestly I've had all Sammy phones. And I've been rooting and modding and flashing for about 6 years. This is honestly the first phone I've never even had somewhat of an interest to root. I've read through the thread but right now there is no reason for me to root. Phone performs great. Looks great. Outstanding battery life. This phone is phenomenal AS IS. IMHO

You have to go back to stock for the update. I tried every way around that but it kept picking up on the root being tripped somehow.

Didn't mean to thank you lol. It depends on which carrier you have. So far only the Korean and AT&T models have 4.4 kitkat

Who is updated ETA android 5.0 ?

Today android 5.0 Is roll out to nexus 7 2012 . I wait it today !!

Its only rumoured to be today. Not guaranteed. But I have to admit I'm pretty excited. This is one of the biggest android releases if not the biggest. I'm checking updates every 20 mins [emoji3]

Will the 2012 Nexus 7 be getting the Lollipop update?
Yes...we will!
http://www.androidcentral.com/yes-even-2012-nexus-7-will-get-updated-android-50-lollipop

Yes nexus 7 2012 is also guaranteed the update

I'm waiting for the factory image so I can start fresh as my n7 has been running like a pig.

I've actually moved away From the Nexus 7 onto the tab s , but still have the device and would like to see the impact that Lollipop has on a device that's Now 2 years old, and hopefully bring life back to the device for use , I understand the update is only rumoured to be out today but hopefully will be released

If Android L is pushed as an update I'll gladly ditch CM11 and return to stock.. Lol

Patience is a virtue, my friend [emoji4]
Inviato dal mio Moto G utilizzando Tapatalk

So im not the only one that has been glued to my nexus 7 ? lol im so impatient ! ha

Yep, I'm flashed back to stock and waiting

Let's hope the nand problem is fixed (f2fs makes my n7 freeze) otherwise my n7 is going to fly from my balcony.

I was planning on returning to stock tonight after work. So there is no risk in taking this ota as far as rooting goes, right? A nexus will always be unlockable is my assumption

The problem with OTA is that the update take some random time to come, so if Google publish the images, I will flash manually

maybe it will be here today
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
and OTA after 2 weeks

Still waiting and refreshing for ota update then I check back twitter...saw this

Update available h81110n

I just updated LG Bridge trying to do a backup so I can try and root from the one click method. After LG Bridge updated I decided to check for an update and sure as **** there was one. I'm running it now. It is 1.66GB.

Are you noticing any improvements to touch response, performance, temperature, etc?
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk

So far I can't make it all the way through the update process. I'm not sure if it is because of my attempts to root my device with the one click method and now stock recovery isn't on the phone?
UPDATE: Seems as though my drivers got messed up when my computer updated the LG Bridge app. Phone seems to be updating now.
UPDATE: Still just 5.1. Too soon to tell what has been improved upon.

Sweet. Downloading now.

Hey MicroMod so should we restore everything to stock take the update then use your one click twrp again or is there a way to keep twrp on and update it? Thanks I'm kind of confused how to take the update

my phone doesn't see the update just yet. of course I'm always at the end of the line when it comes to batch updates.

You will most definitely have problems if you try to OTA update while having twrp. You'll have to re-root and re-flash twrp assuming the methods available now are still successful. Once someone packages it into a flashable zip you can keep twrp and root after flashing

who uses 6 fingers?? i never find a use for more than one finger

My wife begs to differ, but that's another issue entirely....

This has fixed the touch issues for me.

Just tried it and I'm able to get 8 unplugged if I'm not moving fingers, was only able to get 6 before the update. Seriously tho I can notice the difference in responsiveness and overall use of the phone. Much snappier - this is what I was expecting when I first got the phone.

At&t update - 9-25-2015

I decided to try pressing the update button and it actually said there was a update available. It is downloading right now. I was on the latest update before this.

Downloading now as well, 670.86 MB file.
Can anyone confirm yet that this is 5.1.1? Or something else?

I imagine they'll update this page with a changelog whenever they officially announce the update:
https://www.att.com/esupport/softwareUpdateArticle.jsp?sid=KB426710&cv=820
(Still only shows the August 10th Stagefright patch at the time of this post)

I confirm it is 5.1.1

Is there a way to reset the download timer?

You can try setting the date 1 day forward, worked for me.

I'm so surprised that AT&T released an update. Now if only there was a way to do what they've done with the regular GS6 on XDA and make mini updates for those of us still on OE2

Will there be a way to retain root and upgrade from OE2

I see the version change to 5.1.1 also, I heard RAW image support was going to be added to camera but I don't see that.

I get a error every time I try to install the update. Does anyone have any suggestions?

No, I think i remember back when every else got the updated they said RAW is support but you had to download a camera app that supports RAW. It wasn't added to the stock camera.

For the S6 there's a way by taking the ota .zip and working some magic, but I'm not sure if anyone has done it for the edge.

how much garbage bloot is on it though? Im rooted on 5.0.2 with a cleaned stock rom. I dont want to unroot and flash the update and loose root if there is a bunch of garbage installed.

About damn time!

If you are looking for a big change and a big reason to unroot and update. There isnt. I was rooted with 5.0.x for over a year. I loved it but got bored. I unrooted and went to stock 2 days ago and was going to root again until I saw this update today. It's snappy, clean fully of bloat but disabled a crap load of apps. It's OK but like I said if looking for a big change. Wait till 5.1.1 has a solid rooted rom first.

If you need to unroot and get to stock ROM you need to flash stock ROM in ODIN
Sent from my SM-N920C using Tapatalk

I installed the update yesterday and overall my phone runs MUCH better, multitasking is greatly improved and I've noticed I typically have much lower system ram usage than I had previously on 5.0.2. I did turn on Enhanced LTE and it still is draining my battery by quite a bit, I went to sleep last night at 59% and woke up at 36%, battery manager listed Cell Standby at 31% battery used. I also tried and was unable to enable UHQ Upscaler audio, not sure why that's the case. The option is simply greyed out.

Help determining which nougat/marshmallow ROM to user for model SAMSUNG-SM-G900A

I'm trying to upgrade my buddie's phone here. Not very familiar with the s5 community and what's available..
Can this phone be rooted, TWRP'd, and flashed to nougat or marshmallow officially or otherwise?
Please help, any advice is appreciated.. Thanks

Depends on what version of android you have now if it can be rooted. If you have lollipop or marshmallow, then no, there is no root. Marshmallow is available via ota update.

As of now all you can try is Kingroot, which may or may not work (haven't tested it). Let's see if we can get as far as root and then we'll go into ROMing
