Update to lastest ota before converting to stock

Hi, my blu arrived today and i'm already planing on converting to stock. I read that the ota ver 6.4 enables some LTE bands... i probably won't ever use them, but its an adition so... i want to know if i can flash 6.5 (this is the lastest right now) and then flash stock... im affraid i might flash the amazon ota and loose the ability to go back to stock.. is it safe?

Not exactly sure what your asking??

I don't think that you understand the process. Removing the ads means reflashing the entire phone, so any updates that were installed would no longer be there as the images used to reflash do not include any updates.
There was one update that only the amazon version got to make it harder to disable the ads. Both versions of the phone got a July security update pushed but this only works on completely unmodified phones.
The much awaited band 12 update has NOT been released.
Either your source of information is suspect or you are not yet understanding the information. Read carefully in THIS forum to learn what's going on with this phone.

Well that's what I wanted to say, but you know --time and energy
The non prime has not yet received any OTA, only the Prime variant. Non prime still on June security

That's not true. My phone is converted to non-Prime edition and I WAS offered the July security updates. I could not install them because I have twrp, root, and xposed but I was told that an update was available for the non-amazon version. The amazon version of the phone has had TWO updates - the first one to stop turning off the ad server and the second one with the July security updates.

Hmm..

That is what I got after I tried applying the update, just to see what would happen - I knew it wouldn't work with root, twrp, etc. but hoped that I would be able to find the downloaded update file on the phone somewhere. Other people with unmodified phones have reported receiving it. Check near the end of the General Discussion thread - the one that's over 100 pages long.

Your the only one reporting it, that I can find. But hey if they released it great. But the only downloads for OTAs I can find are for the prime. If anyone has an OTA for non prime that updates it from 1.2 please post a link. @ColtonDRG is thinking of merging the July security updates to OEM, but if it's already been released via OTA, someone let him know!! I'm not trying to argue with you, it's just people are getting confused and frustrated already with the different flash methods etc... Don't get me wrong, I would be super stoked if BLU actually supported the non subsidized non prime variant.

I have not received any update. If anyone who has received an update can capture a URL so we can mirror it, that would be super awesome. That said, I still have my doubts about weather such an update exists. Can someone who supposedly has the update tell us their custom build number?

Yes, Colton there was an ota update yesterday. But currently it says "Root has been detected, can not update device". This may be the 4G LTE Update.

Can you post a screenshot to prove this? I'm pretty sure it should attempt to apply an OTA regardless of root (though it will fail if rooted).

Thats just where i modified the build.prop to match model # OTA version check is still R0011UU for OTA updates, but earlier today, i completely reverted to oem stock with factory reset, still no OTA, my OCD made me do it, just to confirm OTAs lol, spent an hour restoring my phone afterwards

Yay, someone else finally got it! No, jloh1963, it wasn't the anticipated band 12 voLTE update, it's just the July security updates. But no one can install it unless they are completely stock and few in this forum probably are.
Colton, it did attempt to apply the update after downloading it and prompting me and, as expected, the update failed. That's why I made that post a week or so ago asking where I might find the failed update. I wanted to save it. But I did a search on the phone and couldn't find anything that looked like it.

It is entirely possible that this FOTA program actually does know how to do gradual rollout like most other programs. I assume that's what's going on here.

Yeah I did earlier today, reran conversion via spft and reset/wipe to factory. Ran update check but nothing, so I rooted/installed TWRP and restored my current config. I'll reset and let it sit for a day or two, perhaps its a gradual rollout. Will do my best to grab URL

Still on Oreo August patch, updates are a joke, will be looking for a new phone soon

Yea, (in case we are having 'a bit of fun'), a Nokia 7 Plus developer while developing the patch had put a video of his and his wife's foreplay (and probably postplay, seriously who knows?) on the system for 'educational purposes', and by mistake pushed it with the update, after realizing what he did, they had to pull the update down, this is the reason why even those who updated to Nov patch are still showing Oct patch and those who have already updated are the lucky lot, Nokia is allegedly paying bribes to them to not leak the footage and have prohibited to release the patch.
