Hi guys, my questions would refer to root privileges with regard to OTA software update...

But firstly...

Do you think that KingoRoot apk constitutes a reliable root service? Do you think one can root his/her device just by installing the app via browser in the phone and launching the root process?

And now the initial question:

Do you think that OTA software update can remove root from the device? Or, does the fact that one can perform OTA software update indicate that there is acutally no root on the phone?

(Device: Samsung Galaxy J5 2016)

Thanks!
