I read an article that the new update closed the ability to root of whatever it is everybody likes to do (I'm too worried about bricking my device), and to regain that ability will require reverting back to previous build.
WHAT HE SAID.....if I hadn't been clumsy... I wouldn't have had the problems I did...thanks to MrJ0087 for getting me a solution to bring my phone back from Brick-dom!The ZV6 update is already available here on XDA. If you're rooted, you should bump TWRP and flash ZV6 through recovery, rather than accepting the OTA. If you think you might want to root, you shouldn't take the OTA.
As long as I've had Android phones, this advice has been widely given: Don't ever accept an OTA if you're rooted, at least until you know for sure what the effects will be. Rarely are they good.
Go to this thread:hallo! a slip of the finger has murdered my phone. OTA update. ive already tried the stuff i normally do with flashtool for oops moments. but its not working for some reason. and my poor little g3 boots right into twrp. any suggestions? someone help my baby come back to life!!!
They dumped ZV5 for ZV6. OP title was never updated.Why would they do a "ZV5" update if we already have the "ZV6" it dosent make any sence. Please explain if you can.
This is an old thread, from before ZV6 was released.Why would they do a "ZV5" update if we already have the "ZV6" it dosent make any sence. Please explain if you can.
