Hi guys, so my OP3T is currently running oxygen 4.0.3 and is rooted running the franco kernel, my question is simple, how do I update to the latest 4.1.3 as I've read that you can't get OTA updates on a rooted phone, thanks in advance !

You have to install TWRP recovery and install any 4.1.3 oxygen OS based Rom...
I'm guessing you have TWRP then. In that case - flash full ROM zip from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/rom-oos4-0-nougat-op3t-leaked-t3523482
When it's done, reflash FK and root and you're done.

And also, to get back on Franco Kernel you should also flash the latest kernel compatible with the ROM version kernel base source code or else you will run into trouble.

I am new here. What's the difference between stock and custom kernel? What else custom kernel let you do that stock won't? I heard rooting don't void OnePlus warranty, does installing a custom kernel do?

This is actually not true. You can get OTA notifications on a rooted device, and should even install properly. It will be recognized you have a rooted device, and download the full update zip (instead of just the patch) and install it. Or manually download and flash the full update, as previously suggested, and just flash in TWRP.
Either way, flash SuperSU to get root again. And this will also prevent TWRP from being removed by the update. You'll also need to re-install custom kernel, and any other "root" modifications; as should be expected, these will have been over-written by the update.
Basically, on a stock device, you only need the patch OTA. On a rooted device, if you install the patch OTA, you will soft brick. Therefore you need the full update zip.
I too found this all very surprising (that you can OTA a rooted 3T, and use TWRP to install), coming from another device (another manufacturer). It seems OnePlus is really friendly to the dev community.
The following has the updated downloads, as well as really good instructions on how to update a rooted device (Post #3). It's what I used to update by rooted 3T: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/rom-oxygenos-3-5-4-mm-ota-update-t3519074

Look at the specific custom kernel threads, to see all the features offered. But in general, custom kernels allow more control over the CPU, such as overclocking, undervolting, different governors, etc., in addition to some other features. They may increase performance or improvement battery life, but your mileage may vary.
The kernel is part of the ROM (okay, that is simply put, but good enough for this discussion) and easily put back to stock condition by flashing a full update zip as described earlier in this thread. So I don't see it in any way voiding your warranty. As I see it, by allowing bootloader unlock (does not void warranty) OnePlus is basically saying that any reasonable/logical changes which happen from that (custom recovery, custom ROMs, custom kernels) also do not void warranty.

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I started thinking to root my Moto G 2 but I still want to run on stock kernel & ROM. We are still waiting for the update to Android 5.1 and I was wondering if I could get the OTA safely with a rooted device. If not, I would wait for the official update and after this I'm going to root it; otherwise I would root it now. Thanks in advance.
I think you should wait for the OTA update and root after the update.
You won't receive any OTA updates from Motorola if you have flashed custom recovery and rooted your device
Copy that, thank you guys.

If I understood it right, @luke! wants to run stock rom after rooting. So there is absolutely no problem to boot into TWRP 2.8.5.0, make a nandroid backup and flash latest superSU from there. OTA just cares about custom recovery and changes in system. So when an OTA arrives just restore your nandroid backup or revert the changes you made like unfreezing systemapps, uninstalling things like adaway and there will be no problem to install OTA.
Even if you flash twrp instead of booting into it,you can easily flash back the custom recovery. As long you stay stock this is all an easy thing. And also after flashing a custom rom there are ways to get back to the original firmware. @luke!:If you need any help pm me.

Hi,
So i have a Moto G 2 XT-1068 with Android 5.0.2 and system version 22.21.28.titan_retaildsds.retaildsdsall.ex.03 reteu.
I rooted it and installed Xposed.
Since some days, my phone notify me that there is a new (official) update avalaible :
22.56.3.en.03
My first reflex was to post in the Xposed forum :
I have a Motorola Moto G 2nd edition (2014 XT-1068) with Android 5.0.2 and these xposed versions installed :
XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk
xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-1
This morning, my phone notify me that there is a newsoftware update available :
22.56.3.en.03
Can i update ?
Will Xposed still running or do i have anything to do before or after update ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then :
Yes i'm rooted (i didn't know i could install exposed without root ?!) and i ask the question to rooted users : what is the recommended behavior to have when we are rooted and there is an official update like this one ? Should i ignore it ? Should i wait ? Should i update (with one of your solutions) ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and this is the reply i had :
You'll have to ask how an OTA works for that in your device forum.
For Google Android (untouched by OEM) in Kitkat, OTA used to check each important file individually and if one was modified, OTA would fail. This did not check all existing files or added files such as root, so as long as you uninstalled Xposed properly (restoring the original app_process files etc) then an OTA would be fine.
Since Lollipop, OTA checks the /system partition as a single item so any modification in any file, or any additional file will make the OTA fail. In which case, the only way to update would be to flash a stock ROM.
You will need to find out in your device forum which of these applies to your device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So this is it, i make a post in this Moto G 2014 forum
Doing the OTA will most likely delete the XposedBridge.jar so you will have to flash it again.
Else the Xposed app will still be available but the Framework won't be installed.
If it doesn't update because the /system partition has been modified, you'll have to flash the whole rom to update.
Ok, so i can try without risk ?
And what about my root ?

Root will be gone too. You'll have to root it again by flashing SuperSu Zip though a custom recovery. (TWRP)
Restore the nandroid backup of the stock system you made in TWRP before you rooted.
You also need the stock recovery for the OTA to install.
You made a backup of your system before you rooted, right?

I'm note sure i made a backup before i rooted cause i'm note sure i knew i could install recovery without root but i checked my backup plan and my oldest backup is post root
So, what do you recommand when there is OTA like this ? Should i ignore them ?
It seems to be a hard process (flash stock recovery and root again and not sure if it will be possible anyway, is it ?) for maybe a little update ?
Maybe i should wait for the next big OTA like Android 6, then be sure that a new rooting process exist before update, and also be sure that Xposed will be supported ?
So if i ignore this 22.56.3.en.03, will i be notifyed for others newer OTA (like Android 6 for instance) ?
Thanks

You might have to flash the whole stock firmware back to get the stock recovery. Big waste of time.
Then rooting back means using CF Auto Root Commands again..
You have to update to it though if you want Android 6.0.
Since it won't be soon, you rather go for CM13 once it gets really stable.
Also by the way, Xposed is already supported on MM.
Thanks for these precisions.
So if i can resume : a custom rom is easier for enjoy Android updates than just Xposed.
Hi,
Can you confirm :
For someone searching advanced features like customize status bar, quick settings, shutdown menu, hardware buttons, etc : customs roms and "stock rom + exposed" are two solutions. BUT, for someone searching these same advanced features but also keep his device up to date : custom rom is really a better solution. Isn't?
I was happy when i discovered xposed as it seemed to be a easier process that flashing a custom rom, but i didn't know that i couldn't update easily..
So, what is the advantage to use xposed instead of custom rom?
Hi,
I am always thinking if i will update my stock rooted xposed rom, or if i will install a custom rom prerooted like Cyanogen mod (o have easier future updates).
i have some questions :
1- Is it possible to install xposed and modules on a custom rom like cyanogen mod ? I think yes but can you confirm ?
I know that CM come with inbuilt tweaks but i discover some great xposed module i would continue to use, even if i install CM.
2-If i keep my stock rooted xposed rom, and don't make this "little" Android 5 OTA update, will be i notified for "Android 6" ?
(i don't want to lose my time to reflash my rom, reroot mydevice, etc.., just for a little update, but i could do that for a more important update like Android 6...
3- We are agree that if i flash a custom rom like CM, it will resolve my "ota update" problem, cause there won't be "Motorola OTA" anymore, but there will be CM updates easy to make, isn't ? If yes, what could be the advantage to use stock rom rooted + xposed vs custom rom + xposed ?
Thanks
I'm a newbie and my phone is at Marshmallow 6.0.1, rooted with Nexus Root Toolkit su (with SuperSU 2.62)
later flashed twrp, now want to install ElementalX Kernel.
Do I need to unroot the system, and then flash the kernel with twrp?
thanks in advance.
The kernel is the boot.img. Just flash it via TWRP and it will automatically be present.
And why do you specifically want to install Elementalx? If you've got a working rooted phone, why continue to mess with it? Continual unnecessary tweaking is the sure way to end up with a glass-and-metal paperweight...

Better flash superSU2.65.zip (latest atm).
Not necessarily better. Versions after 2.62 have a number of comments across various threads saying that root doesn't work for them. 2.62 uses a different method from the later versions. 2.62 works fine for me and (from the silence in the forums) for most people, so upgrading to 2.64/2.65 is probably taking an unnecessary risk.
And again, why try to install a different kernel on a working rooted device? It makes no sense to me unless there's an amazing function that will make a discernable difference, and personally I don't believe that any kernel makes that much of a difference in real-life normal usage.

Not something i'd agree with since CPU governors and I/O schedulers can make allot of difference to "real life normal usage", obviously this depends on what the developer impliments and user choice.
there are times that I'll run elementalx kernel, but I ALWAYS change the governor and scheduler. always. as I can't stand the way that its set up. personally, I always use ondemand with deadline :angel:

Wondering how you achieved root.I am unable using the stock kernel.TWRP installed just fine.Do you mind sharing your procedure?
Download SuperSU v2.62-3 (you can try later versions, but some people have reported that they don't work for them - v2.62 works fine for me and many others). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64161125
Copy the zip file to a folder in your Nexus 6 - say, Downloads, it doesn't really matter which one.
Boot into TWRP. Press Install. Navigate to the folder where the SuperSU zip file is and select it. Swipe in TWRP to install it. DO NOT accept any offer from TWRP to root your device (again) - you'll break it. Once installed, just reboot system. Done.
To install elementalx, just flash in recovery.

Silliness. Why are you even on xda with that attitude? He probably wants to install it so he can use some of the added features and enhancements.
"Why are you even on xda with that attitude?" Ditto. We're all entitled to our opinions, and my opinion is that a lot of noobs do stuff just to see what happens, and the result is that they're in forums asking after the event "How do I fix this?" rather than "How do I do this?", and in both cases without any particular need or reason or understanding of what they want. And this is a typical thread - an admitted noob wants to install a specific kernel, and still hasn't said why (though he/she has thanked me, which I appreciate ). I think that to warn noobs about unnecessary tinkering is doing them a service - isn't that why we all respond to questions?

Thanks very much -so to be clear that was with the Stock kernel?
I am running 3.10.40-g557ba38
Trying to avoid a brick situation,sorry to be a bother..
Yes, stock kernel. As I understand it, the SuperSU backs up and replaces the stock kernel (as part of the boot image) and will restore it if you unroot. You just need to follow the instructions as written - it's exactly what I did on my stock 6.0.1 ROM.
Awesome thanks again.

Dare I ask what went wrong?
I was going to unlock the bootloader (since it would require a full wipe if I waited and did it later), but otherwise stop there (I don't think changing recovery or rooting result in any need to wipe)
There is a full OTA zip in the 2nd post of the TWRP thread. This may solved your problem. But I do suggest you read the whole thread, as there maybe info that regard to your bootloader issue. I noticed that some of the OP3T came with OOS 3.5.1, which have issue w/ custom recovery. So you have to upgrade to 3.5.3.
PS: there is this full backup available also.

After mucking around with TWRP/Root, I decided I wanted to try the plain vanilla SafetyNet-compliant OxygenOS experience. In TWRP, I flashed the 3.5.3 OTA from here. I rebooted my phone into Fastboot and relocked the bootloader, then rebooted back into OxygenOS. I think relocking the bootloader and flashing the OTA are interchangeable.
Also, from what I recall, if you want to flash the file through the stock recovery, have the file downloaded to the root of your internal storage partition and name it ota.zip. Either download it while in the OS, or use Fastboot mode and use adb push to upload it from your computer to your phone through USB. Reboot into Recovery and there should be an option to update.
After a long long wait its finally here. The oneplus 3T gets android pie. Install it and share your experience here

Yes you can flash it over twrp on skydragon and yes it will replace twrp with stock recovery. But keep in mind you will also have to format your internal storage completely because it will give a decryption failed error.
So after you flash stock and when the phone boots up it will ask you to format the internal storage so backup everything if you want to go this way.

It is not. You will have to factory reset/format data for getting OOS Pie. That is going to delete your data, Magisk and in the process, you may have to reflash TWRP also.
I'm on open beta 39 OnePlus 3 with twrp bluspark.
So can I download the update or the full ROM? I'm a little confused as to where it is on the forums.
Then do I just flash it in twrp (wipe first I know but should I wipe data as well?) While flashing does it tell you to wipe, format or do I do that all myself?
What are the s steps?
I'm happy to wipe everything as I want to clean up my device anyway.
Thank you so much for the help.

Battery life is not as good as Oreo OOS. I have disabled OnePlus's advanced battery optimizations, you should know.
Performance on stock kernel is mostly fine with stutters in phone app mainly. But i think that's phone app's fault. Performance with the custom kernel I am using right now is great and the ROM feels smooth.

Those are pretty basic questions actually. I assume you haven't rooted your phone in recent time?
I just flashed the magisk zip before first boot into system to keep twrp and one restart settled things and magisk is now working fine.
I am using mcd kernel build r27 but it has broken Hotspot functionality, which I don't care much about.
Why would the bootloader get locked after flashing OOS? You need to manually go into fastboot mode and manually enter some commands to lock/unlock bootloader. It can't be done via recovery afaik.
