Being rooted doesn't prevent OTAs, modifying /system does. That said, it'll still notify you and download the update, it will just give you errors when trying to install it.

Mea culpa

I know everyone is very happy and excited about the update, but do we really need a thread each time someone gets an update?
Isn't this the place to show your happiness?

Of course we need a new thread for it! It's like, super important and stuff. I think a new thread should be posted for every single member that gets an OTA!!
WHO'S WITH ME??!?!?

I can't start a new thread because i installed it myself few days ago.:crying:
Tempted flash back 4.4.4, then wait for the OTA so i to can start a thread so i don't miss out.:good::laugh:

As mentioned we do not need a thread for each person who gets the update, many have already and it has been posted in multiple threads. Please search before posting and creating a new thread.

How will we be getting this if we are rooted. Is this Like the OTA and we will have to wait until someone incoporates it into a rom, or will we get this via market updates???

Not Sure, I haven't got the update. maybe someone will provide us a download link. So we don't have too wait for the OTA too pop up.
Thanks, didn't see it though. Seems like an important update, or why they want to push it out while the 4.4 is coming. BTW, the 4.4.1 is in the make. I hate google. If the update is as easy as the windows update, then no problem, but this updates are so hard, take so long time.

I believe this update will bring new radio and most likely a prl change. Still haven't seen update as I am on East Coast. Also running logcat too help provide DL link when it pops up. unless someone gets the link posted first
waiting for the new firmware as well. Hopefully dev will be able to provide a firmware only to flash over existing ROM.
whoever downloads the OTA, please post it

The Update was pulled by Sprint. Reason still unknown. HTC asking sprint questions why. This was going too be last update before KitKat rolls out. Expecting Roll Out date for Android 4.4 should be Jan 20-24.

Moto X OS Updater

Hello everyone,
I am posting here today on the topic of the Moto X OS Updater. I have the VZW Moto X Dev Ed running Rooted Kit Kat 4.4. I do not want the new update and it is asking me everyday if I would like to install. As I am not interested in doing so I would like to remove this. Is there a way to shut down the updater or maybe even remove the apk? If so what is it called or how do I do so?
Thanks in advance!

The main reason people want to get back to 4.2.2 is to root. with the DE you can root with any version because of the unlocked bootloader.

From what others are posting using the unofficial fxz, you can run the 4.4 system with the 4.4.2 bootloader and I would presume the 4.2.2 system, too although I don't see where anyone has specifically tried that. However, if you do run a lower version of the system than the bootloader and accidentally take the 4.4.2 OTA again, you will brick. So you would need to freeze the OTA app to avoid that.

[ROOT] PingPongRoot ***S6 & S6 Edge Root Tool*** by idler1984

It seems that many 925A'ers are not leaving this forum to find out that YES, we have root! The unnecessary questions, comments, doubts are starting to pile up, so maybe this is the best way to ensure everyone knows that YES (again), we have root. Here are THREE posts from the SAME person in DIFFERENT threads asking the SAME thing:
There's root for the g925a? Where?

If that won't drive you crazy, it should at least get you warned for not following forum rules and searching instead of posting for no reason..... If that user searched, they would have easily found this thread showing you exactly how to root the 925A!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3103016
To be 110% clear....... this was developed by @idler1984, NOT me, so thank them - all credit goes to them, I'm just trying to keep the 925A forum cleared up if at all possible!
ENJOY!
EDIT - and because someone asked........ Root has been achieved for both OCE and the 5.13.15 OE2 update
EDIT 2 - and because more people can't read, you CANNOT root anything past May 15th builds, so none of the OF_ updates, nothing that comes out after May 15th, so don't update unless you want to lose root! The information is all there in the thread linked above, if you don't read, you don't have anyone to blame but yourself!
Good job. Was thinking of doing the same.
omg thank you. by the way that first quote was mine sorry. and i did search to no avail. thanks a bunch for clearing this up. and ill try to be more thorough with my search next time.

Okay, that makes sense then, OC9 instead of what I thought you were talking about, "OE9" which I guess does not exist (yet?)
They skipped that one because OE2 is out and there's no need to get the build in the middle developed, from what I can tell.... I've been wrong before though! Just hit your software update and get OE2 then root that, it has the most updates we're going to see before 5.1.1 comes out next month (still more speculating, but that's an informed guess this time based on lots of reading up on the new Galaxy from across the web)

I'm getting increased queries and replies in this post/PM recently, so I'll try to make this clear (hopefully) for 99% of people. Short version of OP which you must read:
2. No new ROM can be supported as bug has been fixed.
Full story:
New bootloader blocks downgrading, be careful installing 5.1.1 OTA!
Kernel built after May 15th (including some 5.0.2 and all 5.1.1) have this bug fixed. Be cautious when installing OTA these days and FlashFire might be your best shot of upgrading systems. Use Odin to unroot and receive OTA if you want.

New Att OTA update (G900AUCU4BOF2)

Changelog only mentions performance and security enhancements. 296MB download. Post your impressions or differences.
I am downloading it now on my fairly slow wifi at work. I'll post something about it later this evening.

Downloaded and installed. Seems to be working fine. DID NOT AFFECT ROOT. I did, however, start getting messages about "unauthorized actions have been detected". Not sure what that is about.
I believe the purpose of this OTA update is to: 1. Update the bootloader from OC4 to OF2 (maybe to prep for 5.1 to roll out?) and 2. Patch the Samsung keyboard vulnerability. I don't think they'd be able to fit much more into an update this small.

The update is 300MB. I've installed 4.4.4 ROMs and GApps smaller than that. I'm interested to see what all is getting updated, as I'm sure many other people here are.
Yep.. I shall be avoiding this one for now.
From reports I have seen, I think many have taken the update expecting 5.1 lol
This one just seems to plug up more holes. Probably a good update for normal users. Probably a bad one for ppl planning on trying to get root.
I am curious about the state of the bootloader in this update tho. Maybe there is a small chance it's not locked down as bad and will allow a downgrade
Can anyone fill me in on that part? Wishful thinking but you never know u guess

I just caught my phone trying to install the update but thank you samsung for a removable battery lol . Just a warning don't just keep hitting remind me it will just start updating .
I haven't got anything yet.. I'm hoping my custom apn with fota removed will delay this
I think it should be criminal for samsung or att to be able to "force" updates without user consent.
Even if they are patching security exploits.
I think you can say for certain that they are probably more concerned that you can use this exploit to root your phone or do things with it they don't want you to... more so than they are worried about the keyboard exploit harming you.
It's just not normal for att to act this fast to patch something like this.
Keep holding out, I'm sure we can acomplish something using the exploit

There's another thread going that reports to have the stock recovery image for OC4. I wonder if it's possible to downgrade via odin to roll back this update to include restoring the keyboard vulnerability that's being explored by @TheBadgers as a potential means to achieve root.
