Heyo everybody! I just got this ota update message: "Essential system updates for google android - .7924"

Not sure what to do. I've had this tablet rooted for a while and I'm worried that updating will wipe out the root. Also, is it safe and/or possible to update the slate 7 extreme to lollipop and root it successfully?

OTA...Update .. OK

I dont really care much for this tablet anymore until Lollipop arrives, like nVidia promised.

I updated in hoping to see Lollipop, but alas only for KIT KAT.

Update worked fine, and since I am on STOCK/NON-ROOTED, no issues whats so ever.

I finally managed to install the (kitkat) auto update and retain root status. As with previous updates (which I had forgotten about), I had to extract and modify the update header first, then flash it with TWRP.

Not attempted Lollipop yet.
