Root works Ok.
I would like to flash this latest image on my rooted stock 4.3, with the latest twrp 2.8.7 installed. It's a long time since I flashed an image so I'd like to double check:
From twrp, do I first wipe everything and then flash
image-mantaray-lmy48i.zip
followed by UPDATE-SuperSU? In particular, do I need to flash the bootloader.imag that comes with the new image?
THANKS!

Don't unpack the zip. Just point twrp at the zip file and ask to install. And you don't need to wipe, because the installation wipes everything anyway.
Lollipop takes a long time booting the first time, so be patient and give it 30 minutes at least.
Cheers!

I used the factory image yesterday to update but installed it using the Flashfire app instead of TWRP. I only flashed boot (not bootloader) and system images then cleared Dalvik (all in one sequence). Flashfire automatically reinstalls SuperSU. I did was on both a Nexus 5 and 10.
I did not flash recovery as the TWRP I had installed was already the latest version. Using this method I preserved my user data and all my settings. All I needed to do was reapply anything I'd previously modified in the /system partition (remove/freeze bloat ware, install busybox, V4A, SuperSU policies ... Etc). I was up and running in no time. Hardly a blip in my day.
I still used TWRP when I really mess up (device soft bricked) but Flashfire has become my goto system update tool on all my Android devices including my Samsung one which has a locked boot loader. It is developed by Chainfire the creator of SuperSU.
Sent from my SM-T800 using XDA Premium HD app
If I'm already on stock 5.1.1 (rooted etc), can I just extract libstagefight.so from this image and manually replace that?
Seems much easier...

So either I suck or I literally have the process wrong, but I was trying to install 6.0.1 last night for 2 hours. Originally I had 6.0 installed rooted, twrp, etc. OTA didnt work because I'm guessing twrp was installed as it errored out. So I decided to take WUG downloaded the binaries/newest stuff and decided to just manually flash 6.0.1. However at the same time I wanted to use the decrypter tool here.
My process was/is:
Flash Stock/Unroot button in WUG (with newest 6.0.1 already downloaded
Root button and flash customer recovery button/checkbox
Flash the perm recovery zip, supersu, and busybox
Flash the decrypter zip
Wipe data/cache/system/davik/etc and then freshly reboot
The problem is, it just hangs on the animation screen and never loads. I've tried it twice now, and its driving me insane. Where could I have went wrong? What is flawed about my process or maybe I'm using the wrong stuff. Thank you in advance guys!

I don't think the NRT is updated to properly root on 6.0.1 (Could be wrong).
Get the Latest SuperSU-v2.62-3 and flash that, It will modified the boot.img for you and include no forced encryption.
As long as you remove the encryption of the data partion in twrp from this guide
You shouldn't need the decrypter zip, also if you flash TWRP and boot into it before booting the system, you also won't need perm recovery.
Going by what I have read, still encrypted on my Device.

ok so everytime I flash the supersu, it does its thing, then I format data, the reboot and twrp says supersu is not installed, do you wanna install it now? You can swipe to install or do not install.
Which I dont get becuase clearly I flashed the supersu zip a sec ago. if I continue to just flash it like it says, when I boot up, all I see in my drawer is the "SuperSU Installer" I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. If I dont have twrp install it when it asks, I got nothing in my app drawer
think I may have gotten it, had to download supersu from play store, then reflash, then let twrp flash it when it says it needed too, not I can launch supersu from the app drawer and it works.
Next problem is encryption. Under security it still says "Encrypted" do I need to actually hit the "Format Data' button in twrp? I just did a factory wipe slide.

From the linked SuperSU thread
From the linked SuperSU thread said:
If TWRP offers you to keep /system read-only, indeed keep it read-only.
If TWRP tells you SuperSU is not installed, and asks you to install it, do not do it, you will break things!

This is do with the new systemless root and TWRP needs to be updated to reflect this change.

From the linked guide above said:
11.Once in TWRP, hit “cancel” when asked for the password and then erase/wipe data and make sure MTP is enabled (dig around the menus in TWRP, it’s all in there somewhere). This erases the encrypted partition and allows you to use adb to push files to your sdcard.

Answers in quoted messages.
Never had to get SuperSU app from the store, maybe because I already had it installed, the app is also in the SuperSU zip.
I got the update for the January Security Update today. I grabbed the .zip's location and the link on Google's servers is:
https://android.googleapis.com/pack...51c56752.signed-angler-MMB29P-from-MMB29M.zip
Hope it helps others!
PSA: this is not flashable over custom ROMs, and cannot be used to install the factory OS from nothing. That's what the factory images are for . This .zip is solely to incrementally update from the December security update to the January one.
Is there an easy way to flash this update.zip without the need of a computer?

Unless you have a custom recovery, no. Sorry about that
Updated. Thanks for the link!
I have a rooted, stock ROM and TWRP and with several Xposed Modules, can I flash this?
Also, I don't have the December update, where do I find that?
And lastly, I'm on MDB08L Build, will that work?
For those wanting to use this update and have completely stock system based on MMB29M. Boot into recovery and do an ADB sideload update.zip (rename zip first). Mine updated with no issues.

If you've got all that set up, why not just update using the full factory image (without the wipe)

I assumed I'll lose all my system modifications (i.e. Xposed Modules and their settings) as well as losing root and TWRP and having to reroot again.

This is exactly the file you need if you don't have custom recovery, don't have root, and have not unlocked bootloader. It is the same file that would eventually come to you OTA. You do however need access to adb and a computer. I don't think this is flashable with a custom recovery.
Thanks..
Thanks for this file bro. dont need to wait.
Alright, feeling like a complete noob, here. I'm on systemless root 2.61 with TWRP. I fastboot flashed the stock boot.img and stock recovery, then tried to sideload the OTA zip. I got a "system contains unexpected contents" error, then installation aborted. Now, with systemless root, I had the understanding that flashing the stock system.img would not be necessary. I was not using systemless root before when I flashed the previous OTA zip. Can anyone spot where I might have gone wrong?

No it does not
I got it:
For systemless root, fastboot flash: 1) boot.img; 2) recovery.img; 3) vendor.img; 4) system.img
Boot to recovery and enter sideloade mode. adb sideload [update].zip
Reboot to bootloader. Re-flash TWRP, then in TWRP re-flash kernel (if custom) & superSU.
I used a toolkit to root my 6P. I'm using rooted stock rom. I got an OTA update but it seems I can't update it that way as per all others. So how do I go about installing this on my mobile? Do I need to unroot, flash stock recovery & then flash the new image? Then again I have to root?
fyi: i'm rooted with systemless root and twrp
I tried to take this update per usual as i would if i were unrooted, of course that didn't work totally. i assumed i would just find the update.zip file (i did: /data/data/com.google.android.gms/app.download/update.zip, icywtk) but when i tried to flash that it said the zip was corrupted. i deleted the zip and now it still says my december build is up to date. can't we just flash the update.zip with twrp? i did allow for the system to be modified this time when i booted twrp.

i just tried this again with the same results. it says that the installer is expecting a different build (the one that my settings app shows i'm on) but that i have a build called huawei/mmasomething/ dee_stroyer somethingsomething. (i would post exactly what it says but i've already rebooted into system). I do remember something with "dee_stroyer" when i was rooting but it's not the system...
anyone else have any ideas? i'd like to just update normally and keep my data... and the stock android with root.
EDIT: also, the update won't update my recovery will it? i don't want to have to reflash that. i should be able to update even when i'm away from a computer haha.
Rooted with TWRP. I just tried an ADB sideload and get the same error.
EEa(EU) rom 10.3.3.0 update
Received it too yesterday and all is ok.
Does anyone know how to flash that update using TWRP? I have rooted my Stock ROM with TWRP, and the Update is downloaded OTA and then reboots to recovery, but TWRP obviously is unable to install it: First it doesn't ask for the password to decrypt the data partition and shows the crypted content of the partition, making it impossible to see or select the downloaded update. A reboot into recovery decrypts the data partition and shows the downloaded Update (as a ZIP) in the folder /downloaded_rom. I tried to install that ZIP from TWRP manually, but to no avail - all you get is an error message.
Edit: Forget the question. Seems the phone healed itself. The first OTA download was an update 10.3.1 to 10.3.3 with a size of around 500 MB, and that couldn't be installed. When the System Updater saw this didn't succeed, it downloaded the complete 10.3.3 Package (2,2 GB) OTA, and installed that via TWRP with no problems whatsoever. I lost Magisk, which i needed to reinstall, but other than that, everything's fine.
Edit 2: The complete package obviously also overwrites TWRP, which i had to reinstall, too.

You will need to flash Magisk immediately after the ROM to stop MIUI restoring stock recovery.
I tried the latest twrp from the official website, but to no avail
Anyway, i installed PE+ with their official recovery, but now i can't flash magisk or any module
I'm wondering if it can be done (twrp or orange fox) without having to lose all my rom data, as i am alredy settled with my current ROM
Ps: when i tried i flashed at partition be, i have no clue as to why i didn't want to boot to recovery even tho the installer said it actually said it was flashed
Thanks in advance

Yes you can flash any recovery without loosing any of your data
Check the current partition and flash recovery in that partition

the latest official TWRP was released in June 2020. TWRP is not working for me as well after Mi update of Sept 2020.
Now if I install TWRP and boot into system via recovery, it takes me back to Fastboot. I was lucky to have a copy of Stock boot img. @Hugask

Try using SHRP recovery it is also a great option
I have an already rooted galaxy a105m with magisk installed, however twrp didn't exist for the a10 when I rooted and installed magisk so I still have the stock recovery. How do I go about installing twrp? Preferably I'd like to not have to wipe my phone but If I have to it's ok.
Edit: Welp I'm dumb, all I had to do was dl the twrp img off of the main root guide, download the twrp official app from playstore, and flash.

Hiii I wanted to ask if the twrp official apk worked on your Samsung a10s...As am speaking I have it installed for some time now but it didn't work,it just on loading mode forever.
If you're already rooted you can download the TWRP img I used here (literally copied from the root guide) and flash via the twrp app (or whatever flashing app you want, that's just the one I used). However, if you're not already rooted I definitely suggest you follow the whole guide so you don't make any mistakes/mess anything up here.
