[Nothing Phone 1] 1stStep:
Hi Folks

First of all, returning here since some months, I discover Pho3nX flew away, so I want to thank him for great help and tuto.

I read this thread from page-1 when I rooted my EEA-NP1 last fall december (bought fall november @amazon.fr).

For now, I get spammed for ~1 month with notifications to upgrade to 1.1.8 here in France, I postponed waiting for time to ask here what to do.

I feel puzzled with what I read about updates, some say "there is no 1.1.8". Also, from page-1 I understand the only path to update to A13 stable (NOS 1.5.2) would be an incremental update via 1.1.8 ???

I remember at the time of rooting I was yet puzzled to know which version I had, EEA-1.1.7 or EEA-1.1.7-Hotfix.

I also was told I won't get OTA updates as soon as I have rooted the phone ??? Whatever, I think I did things as recommended.

And many one here have reported errors related to start version/target version mismatch IIUC.

Please what is the safest steps to upgrade to stable A13 without wiping? I can backup my files/export contacts/agenda, but there are many settings and hidden config data I don't know how to save/restore, and it would be a pain job to reinstall all apps and do settings again. This my main concern, as I have confidence in this forum if things go wrong to get help to restore to factory defaults.

ATM my boot loader is unlocked (following the advice in the tuto I didn't unlock the "critical" thing) and I have Magisk installed that shows :

Magisk > Installer (french verb for Install) [Thought it was yet ???]​

Application > Installer (same)​

And bellow that:

Uninstall Magisk​

I don't remember/know if I changed system or other critical partition (I don't think so although), but I tapped Masgisk option for Out-of-System-Partition Hosts file and I can't revert (it says a module is inserted but there's no option to revert, so maybe Magisk replaced hosts file in system partition with a symlink to a R/W location?)

Here are some info I grabbed from my NP1:

(notice 1.1.7 version and how ...display.id ...221121... differs from other ...211230... strings - display.id is the string that shows in Settings App)
