Hello All,If on stock, uprooted (ever), go to method 1. If not, keep reading.Now, in the latest Molly CF-AutoRoot, it flashes a modified kernel to gain root that causes OTA updates (i.e. impending 5.0.1) to fail, this was due to the fact that until a couple days ago, the modified kernel was necessary. Chainfire found a way to fix it without modifying the kernel and implemented it in SuperSU 2.37. If you are rooted, used CF-Auto Root, and wish to retain root, but regain the stock kernel for OTA's, simply follow root method 2.To Root from stock LPX13D, Download the following attached files and place them on your desktop ():- CWR_MOLLY_LPDX13D.img- UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.37.zip1.
