I sent in my phone to be repaired after it got stuck on the bootloop problem that's been caused by their hardware failure. It just returned to me today and it's been updated to build number: MRA58K... Software version: H81021x. Can this version be rooted? If not, is downgrading the only way and is it possible to downgrade and root it again?

Can I let my rooted Note 3 be updated?
I have two Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 3 phones, SM-N900V. One has Android version 5.0 and I haven't been able to root that one. The other one has Android version 4.3, and I was able to root it from Windows using mobilego_setup_full818.exe.
Now that the second phone is rooted, I get daily unidentified popups, presumably from Verizon, asking me to let it update the phone. It doesn't say what it's going to update; I guess it's the Android version. My only choices are to let it happen, or postpone it; no option to refuse it permanently.
So question: If I let it update, will it undo my root? I'm worried that if it updates Android and I lose the rooting, I won't be able to root it again, like with the other phone.
On one hand I'd like to update the Android system because the current older one is preventing me from installing some apps, like Wells Fargo Banking, and Pokemon Go. On the other hand, I really want to keep the root, because I rely on it for using my phone as a wifi spot for my laptop, blocking ads, using Titanium Backup, etc.
Advice?

Helium - App Sync and Backup for non Root Users is updated (July 4, 2016)
For those who are not familiar with Helium backup:
Helium is the missing app sync and backup solution for Android.
Helium does NOT require root. All Android users can use Helium to backup and sync Android applications.
Helium lets you backup your apps and data to your SD card or cloud storage. With Helium, you can sync app data from your other Android devices-- even if they are not on the same network. Set up backup schedules with Helium, and never lose data again.
Updated to version 1.1.4.2. Check it out https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ikdutta.backup

Any Updated unbrick methods since LGup?
Ive had a bricked g4 sitting around for 3 months now . Hoping we have a updated tool LG up or like LG up that addresses the Unknown model issue that's cause by being bricked while on a Rom and not stick.
I fought tooth and nail over this months ago and no one had a fix for those that Show the Unknown model deetected .
Another words LG UP tool don't work in that scenario for unbricking.

Updated Google Play Services killing my phone(s)
I'm running stock AT&T 4.0.4 ROM, rooted with CWM. Google Play Services just updated to version 9.2.56 (034-124593566), and it's sucking my battery dry and making the phone run hot. I have a spare phone and brought it online, and the same thing happened as soon as Google Play Services updated. It is running anywhere from 50% to 80% of my battery when the screen is below 10%. Yep, it's using more than 10x what the screen requires. Battery that used to last 18 hours now lasts 2 to 3. Others have posted similar comments in the Play Store (like that's going to do any good). Common theme is it's older OSes.
I have tried disabling everything and it doesn't do any good. Too many things break if Google Play Services is removed. Going back to an old version is futile -- it self-updates within minutes. I tried GServiceFix and it works for few minutes, then the usage creeps up again.
I sent Google an email, but I expect nothing less than the run-around. So, I turn to XDA Developers.
First, is anyone else here still running stock, and did the same thing happen to you? How about on other ROMs (please specify)? Did you find a fix?
Assuming Google will do little to help, I need to do something to make my phone work right. So if there is a ROM where this is not a problem, I guess it's time to jump in. Problem is, some of the links in this forum are broken. I've found (or already had) most of what I think I need except a version or EFS Professional that works on our phone. I can find no working links to an older version that will do the job. I do have a Nandroid backup (also stored on my NAS), which I believe can restore the EFS, but I'd like to get just the EFS in case I need to load it to the system after flashing. None of the tools available in the Play Store seem to work on the Glide -- I end up with an empty backup directory.
My plan, assuming there is a Jellybean ROM without this issue, is to flash twrp-2.8.4-flashable.zip, since I understand TWRP is required for JB, then do another Nandroid backup with it, then flash whichever ROM is suggested to get over this. I've looked at Bubor's CM10.2, and it looks like it will fill my needs unless it also suffers this problem. If there is a reason I should update the Kernel, please let me know. I have not seen anything that makes me believe I need to.
Man, I wish one of the manufacturers would come out with a similarly sized new phone with a slide-out keyboard and AT&T compatible. I'd gladly upgrade, but there is nothing out there that meets my needs. Samsung S5 mini with slider -- I'm in.

[p9 lite] kernel source updated to 3.10.102 - use it if you want!
I think I'm really close to building the kernel for the P9 Lite, but now I am stuck at the Hisilicon driver.
[edit] Compilation succesful! People, feel free to use this updated version of the kernel source and do whatever you want with it. It's been carefully upgraded as you can see in commit history.
( initially I forgot to include $ make ARCH=arm64 O=../out merge_hi6250_defconfig , doh, RTFM)
Edited source code at my repository https://github.com/twicejr/HUAWEI-P9-Lite_OpenSource
( Props to paulobrien for the idea and great tutorial on P9 http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/d...ei-p9-t3373617 )
I've copied the p9 kernel config, because I didn't know how to do it from the p9 lite kernel image.
I've used paulobrien's code to see how I would proceed... all I did was copy the p9 kernel config, and put it on top of the source code from Huawei:
http://download-c.huawei.com/downloa...Code=worldwide
Then I have applied all the linux kernel patches for 3.10 from https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/
- it included manually patching lots of files because they failed in automatic patching
Maybe someone else with more experience can use my source code, fork it or take it over from me :angel:
I'd love to help and learn more too. I am a linux webdeveloper, willing to learn more about c, etc.
The main goal for me would be to provide a better kernel and eventually integrate more features, like undervolting :cool:

updated to android 4.3 and supersu no longer works
Hi
I think I updated from android 4.2 to 4.3. My phone suddenly restarted (I guess I accidentally tapped update android in the notification bar). . I see I have android 4.3 now and I think I had 4.2 before.
Another thing that has happened is that supersu has stopped working. When I try to open it it says "thre is no SU binary installed..........If you just upgraded to android 4.3 you ned to manually re-root"
I really don't want to lose all my data and applications doing that. What can I do?
Thanks
