1. Yes
2. Search XDA for Jamal's firmware and modem collection thread. You will have OB 20 firmware with and without modem listed there.

I'm currently using Resurrection Remix 5.8.3. Would I need to reflash the entire ROM to get current firmware/modem if I flash the OOS 4.0.2. package? I'm rather confused.

Your question is not clear.

If you flash OOS 4.0.2 full zip, you will get the firmware/modem built into that ROM.

If afterwards you want to flash any custom ROM, follow the instructions of the Dev of that ROM. If he advises to flash a particular firmware/modem, you can get that alone by downloading it from Jamal's Firmware/Modem thread and flash that alone before flashing the ROM. For instance, if he advises firmware/Modem of OB 21, only that needs to be flashed and not the entire ROM (OB 21).

Usually stock ROMs have firmware/modem builtin whereas custom ROMs don't.

Just did "enable_dm_verity" and dm_verity screen is gone :)
So this is what has happened since I got rid of dm_verity from my 4.0.2 rooted stock OOS state. I updated my twrp to latest (3.1.x-y), wiped everything and flashed stock OOS 4.1.6, locked my bootloader and let it install stock recovery.

So basically, I tried to go back to original stock state which I went except dm_verity is back again. :(
My device is also not passing safety net test, (assuming due to dm_verity) throwing CTS profile match failed.

Is there a way for me to get rid of dm verity now from stock recovery without unlocking the bootloader again?

Since 4.1.7 it doesn't work for me anymore, the dm-verity screen is gone after I flashed the 4.0.2 firmware + modem and execute the commands in bootloader, but after flashing 4.1.7 firmware + modem the dm-verity screen is back, yes, I use the correct zip files.

Hi Arron,

I don't know if this will work but it worked for me. So if you look at my replies on the thread. I was on rooted 4.0.1 with old twrp n SuperSU. I decided to go complete stock and as this thread suggested, I was able to get rid of dm verity issue by running simple command that was supported on older bootloader. However, after flashing the latest stock at that time (4.1.6) and moving completely stock, everything was fine except dm verity was back. Now, I stopped doing anything because I was busy and this was my only device. Here comes the ota 4.1.7, i installed it and dm Verity was gone.

So, i would suggest to do stock install of 4.1.6 oos and then wait for ota 4.1.7 and you should be golden. Hope it helps.
