Latest update..... has anyone installed the Verizon update being pushed out? Does it cause you to lose root?
Might want to search next time. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513559
Hi all. I'm on a custom stock 6.0.1 ROM. It's working really well since I installed it and I'm pretty satisfied with that but since then I dint installed any monthly security updates so I'm stuck on a May patch.
I know it's there an October update and was thinking if it's there a way to just install the security patch WITHOUT installing all the whole ROM. You know, if something is working just don't touch it.
And btw, developer of my ROM sold his device and there aren't more updates to his room. The one rocking my phone is the last one.
Someone can point me out. Thank you

As far as i know there is no way to install ota or security patch updates unless you unroot your device with stock recovery. Even if you find ota zip file for security patch update you cannot flash via custom recovery your binaries bust be official to apply this patch.
Yep no way as far as I know. I flashed back stock recovery, unrooted, still OTA wasn't applied from Stock recovery, forgotten the error code.
As Verizon users know a new OTA was pushed yesterday 02/16/17 the update is safe to take if you have a unlocked bootloader you will need to reflash TWRP and root you will lose both after updating
Haven't seen a new OTA on Verizon.
@Shiftydogit, build no. anything?
I'm guessing it is not showing on anyone who manually upgraded with the latest Google OTA files. Not sure about the regular Google update files, but probably checks the system version ether way for 7.1.1, NOF26V and the latest (February) security version.

Its all determined by the IMEI and ICCID. The images from Google and VZW are now identical. I got the OTA push and Im on the latest Google OTAs. They simply don't roll out OTAs to everyone at the same time .
Newer than February security patch 7.1.1 NOF26V? What's the build number? I'm 100% stock on NOF26V and can't pull an OTA at this time.

Have you rerooted? Idk if I have much reason to, since I rooted mostly for tethering, but I'm curious about the reliability in that

NOF26V is the newest OTA. NOF26W is for Rogers. NOF26V was pushed a few weeks ago and includes the February Security patches. I'm assuming those getting it on 2/17 were either late, or part of the 7.1.2 beta program.
I have a rooted XT1602 with TWRP permanent with may security patch
Today I got notification about 1 September security patch, as it fixes many vulnerabilities, I want to upgrade to this patch. Should I just update using OTA or is there another way?
Well if you haven'tplayed with stock stuff, then go ahead or just take nandroid backup for safety and update it!
Thanks for the reply. I am worried about it getting bricked or losing IMEI number.
Are we sure nothing of that sort will happen? What is the worst that can happen?
So my wife's S7 will not receive OTA updates... She is stuck on 6.0. After a little research it appears that she is not getting the OTA updates because she is still on the G930AUCU1APB4 version
Her phone is not rooted.
Is there a way to force the baseband update?
