6.1.1 ??? I think you mean 5.1.1. Are you rooted, unencrypted, TWRP? OTA will not flash with any of those.
Sorry yes 5.1.1. And no it's all stock.
Did you check about phone? In about phone, you can tell which android version with your phone.

Not without losing root, no. Flash system image and TWRP and SuperSU.
So download the ota and re flash everything?
I was rooted 5.1 LMY47I and flashed LYZ28E via TWRP. It asked me if I wanted to flash SuperSU so I did. Once booted it encrypted my Nexus 6 on its own took about 5 mins.

Did you have to wipe and lose all your data? I'm so confused with all these threads. From what I gather, I can just download the OTA zip, install it and supersu via TWRP, but I don't want to got through the hassle of reinstalling all my apps and settings.
OR, can I just unroot the phone via Supersu and install the OTA update via the notification bar? My BL is unlocked and I'm running TWRP. Obviously, I will do a NANDROID and Ti backup prior to all of this.

If you're rooted yes just flash via TWRP, you'll lose root but once you reboot system it'll ask you if you want to flash SuperSU so just do that. This will give you root again with no issues. It took about 10-12 mins for me to boot up back to home screen, it'll update every app you have installed that easy bud. Don't panic trust me.

Well it depend what build the OTA gives you. If the OTA gives you a build that is available as a factory image, download the factory image and flash system and boot.
If the OTA is not available as a factory image download your current factory image, flash system and boot, then accept the OTA.

OTA Update after Root

Actually I have MIUI Global 7.3.10.0(MAAMIDD) with TWRP and Root, my question is there any problem updating via OTA? Will I lose the root or TWRP? Thanks!
When you update Global 7.3.10.0 to Global 7.5.1.0, you will lose root.
I don't know TWRP because I haven't installed TWRP in Mi5.
Maybe, If you already have instralled TWRP, the update will be not in success.
Do not update via OTA without stock recovery... You may go into bootloop

Root + Ota update

Hey I have p20 pro EU version 6/128
Today I got a new update about Google security.
I want every update run on my phone
But I rooted my device.
I wanted first to ask guys , I tried to update but was unsuccessful. I do not have twrp because of the method I used to root p20 pro didn't allow me having magisk and twrp recovery.
So now if I want to update have to do it manually ?
2 questions
1) which program do I use ?
2) where I can find the firmware Official WITHOUT BEEING CHANGED ANYTHING inside from someone third.
Thanks John
You need to flash the stock bootloader. If you are running Pie and Magisk, you have a modified bootloader. I don't know where to download the stock one. Could probably rip it from a stock Pie firmware.
Me to have twrp on my p20 pro and i cannot update my phone.. Have new update but when I try system update after download, its entering to recovery mode for install the firmware but it cannot coz working twrp and unsuccessful installation.
Me to look for stock recovery for clt-l29 pie

The apk from this post will allow you to download the latest firmware for your model from firmware finder and flash it without needing TWRP or having to flash stock recovery. You will have to re-root afterwards though

Download the current version you are using. Extract recovery_ramdisk.img and flash. Reboot and take OTA update. You will lose root, as I said you have a modified recovery and need stock to take OTA.
Edit - Once your done, patch the bootloader from Magisk and flash to get root again.

Are you on which version?
If you wanna update without losing root. Its quite impossible.
You have to download full rom and flash it through twrp along with root and gapps.
