Ok if my phone is rooted I will not get OTA updates? How to update OTA update file via TWRP recovery? If I update via flash tool I will loose my data. thx
If you chose to keep your system read only when you first flashed TWRP then you will still have the wireless update option, now whether it will actually work is another thing lol, I will let you know after the next update,

Otherwise for as advised regarding titanium backup for peace of mind :)

Just got this great phone, having broken my HTC m10 , I must say first impressions on day 2 are great. Everything just works as it should , stock mm is just as any other device, battery is fine if not the greatest but these things tend to wear in over a few days , speed in use is great.

Now we just need some fine tuning on the kernel side so hopes we get a dev on board here.

Must say big thanks for links and starting this thread .... Here's to some dev work ..

Found , updated n working

Wish now for some ROMs, some kernal tweaks and some camera tweaks, maybe xomimi note camera drivers might improve things as similar hardware and same camera

The notification bar options are enabled at the system ui tuner, as in other phones, by pressing the notification gear for 5-6 seconds, as in the example in the video below.

enable nougat feature dual window mode, by changing the attribute 'ro.build.type' to 'userdebug' instead of 'user' in '/system/build.prop'.
Option appears in Developer Options -> Multi-window mode toggle.

To shrink down the UI a bit, it can be done with: 'adb shell wm density 400'.

All tested and working on Z Pro.

    Hacks

    Use TWRP through ADB Shell
    by forum user @deviantor
    - Great guide if your screen is not working and you have to save data! -

    If the volume of your speaker is too loud follow this:

    Code:
    1. Open the dialer and type *#*#3646633#*#* to start the EngineerMode
    2. Scroll right to the Hardware Testing page and select Audio → Volume → Audio Playback
    3. Select System in the first drop-down list and Speaker in the second one
    4. Set Index 1 to a much lower value, 20 for example (the original value should be 88)
      It’s worth the time to create a balanced setup of the available volume levels, so as the Index values follow each other, set up something like 20, 44, 78, 114, then for Index 5 you may leave the original value of 136.
    5. When you finished, scroll down, tap on the Set button at the bottom of the screen and your settings will take effect immediately.
      These changes will be effective until you perform a factory data reset, so simply rebooting your phone won’t make them lost.


    Attention: Due to the fact that my Z felt down and the screen is totally broken, I decided to change phone. If I should updat this thread, please send me a private message.
