Hey Josh, welcome to our AndroidForums.

I've moved your thread over here to the all-things-root are for the Hydro Life since your issues appear to be root-related.

If the update that you're speaking about is an over-the-air (OTA) update and you removed some stock apps that the OTA is checking for (and therefore expecting to find and still be there), then that would account for the OTA's installation failure.

I'll let the other Hydro Life root folks help you out from here (I don't have a Kyocera, so I can't give you any specific recovery advice).

Cheers and best of luck!

Thanks I thought nobody was going to reply but yes it's an (OTA) update how do I reinstall the preinstalled apps on here so my device detects the apps are their I've been wanting to update for a while because some apps have been crashing like YouTube after the newest update & also Google services framework just wanted to update my phone

It seems to not let me install them the email & emal exchange because of the permissions on it do you mind using root explorer & removing the executable persmissions like that

Sorry, I will not root this phone until someone can confirm that there's a stable root. My original hydro boot looped, and I believe that it was because I removed some apps, but I want to be sure.
