So I'd like to install the February security patches (to get rid of the annoying popup and for what they provide). I'm on stock with SuperSu 2.67 and a custom Kernel. I've uninstalled SuperSu with its built in Full unroot and used Flashify to restore my stock kernel that I backed up with it before installing a custom. After doing both of these things and installing the February patch - I'm still on January. What am I missing and is there anyway to get February to install without having to re-flash a factory image?
Thanks

I just pull out the boot.img, radio img, and system.img from the full factory image and flash with fastboot one by one, works every time for me.
Thanks.
Received the update of seguiridad August for Moto XT1063 but not me I settle for being rooted and TWRP, someone will have the Zip OTA to flash it, I have the rom stock but rooteada or there is some other method without flash of rom stock again.
As I can cancel the action does not appear to me,? Since it is not installed because I have root and TWRP and do not want to flash and having to back up everything, any suggestions?
Can anyone help me with the steps to update to Android Oreo (OOS 5) from OOS 4.5.1 retaining root?
Below are the current setup of my phone
Rooted - Yes (Magisk version 14.0)
Recovery - TWRP version 3.1.1-2
Current Rom - Stock OOS 4.5.1
I haven't had any problems in updating earlier but now when I try to flash the full oreo rom from TWRP, I am getting error 7.
Below are the steps I followed.
Downloaded the full OTA zip.
Rebooted to recovery.
Unistalled Magisk.
Tried to flash the Oreo OTA zip. At this point TWRP showed error 7.
Reinstalled Magisk and rebooted to system.
Phone is working fine.
you need to use latest twrp for oreo, for example blue spark version, search for it on xda...
Follow this guide here:

It's exactly what you need.
All Oreo ROM threads clearly state under the "Instructions" heading, that you need either AkhilNarangs Modified TWRP or Blu_Sparks TWRP V50. Using stock TWRP would result in an error.
If the error may still persist, try flashing a different firmware.
Just to get some more clarity.
I have the original OTA full zip. Should I download the zip file from your thread?
Can I install the custom version of TWRP using the official TWRP app? I am bit confused on how to install it.
Is it important that I should use Magisk 14.3 or will v 14 have the same effect?
Hey there,
I can tell you how I have done it yesterday (successfully).
1. Update TWRP - I prefer blu sparks version 8.52 (Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=27225); you can do it by using your installed TWRP Version (Install .img)
2. Dirty flash OOS 4.5.1 again (to remove root / magisk) - once finished DO NOT reboot into system, reboot into Recovery/TWRP to verify the new version and afterwards to system
3. flash OOS 5.0 (Oreo) - dirty flash is okay
4. flash magisk Version 14.3
These are the steps I have followed yesterday and all is running perfect and without any problems.

Which recovery is mentioned in this linked discussion resp. in the linked download? Is it blu_spark TWRP?
Regards
Clark
This worked perfectly for me.
Glad to hear that everything is good ?
I did the same and I was suddenly encrypted and no chance to get my data back. Still forcing clean my phone because I cannot format the device. I get always an error message in TWRP like: unable to format to remove encryption
I go crazy...
Enter recovery and wipe data and then cache.
Then reflash the rom and probably you will be good to go.
Hi, since the last update i can no longer root my Pixel. When I try to flash the patched file from magisk after the latest update, I get a bootloop. If I do a downgrade, I can root it again without any problems. The last security update where it still works is from October 5th. Does anybody have the same Problem?
I had the same issue on the Dec. update. Download the most recent factory image that corresponds with the January factory update and flash the boot image with fastboot. Once you're able to boot up, use Magisk to patch that boot image and flash the patched boot image through fastboot, and you should be good to go.
I updated my magisk manager to the latest version 22000 and i lost root after I did direct install, I tried flashing the patched boot image with fastboot and I also did a clean flash of my phone and replaced my stock image with the patched boot image but magisk manager is still asking me to install magisk, I also tried with the latest canary build but same thing, I'm frustrated already.
My phone is Itel A11 running Android 6.0
