Any flashabale bootloader zip ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KAwAtA:
you're probably in a bootloop right now. I took about 5 minutes
[Nexus 5 Android Development] danarama:
Why?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TCstr8:
Yep, did a full wipe. Ended up rebooting the phone, and it booted right up.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] danarama:
Yes, but why do you think you need it?

If you really want it, pull it out of the factory image and fastboot flash it.

Big thanks for the flashable zip :)

so for someone coming from rooted 4.4.4 w/custom rom and kernel do i need to first flash the 4.4.4 in the op, then the new 5.0 rom/radio? And is there a way to get/keep root without access to a computer?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
If you lost permission to your sdcard, try flashing the ZIP I just attached to the 2nd post.

As you can see...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vnvman:
I know it's pretty silly to quote yourself and all but this is quite disturbing. After formatting system partition via ADB I was finally able to flash all of the stock image parts, I rebooted the phone to make sure everything worked, then went back to bootloader, flashed TWRP, booted recovery, sideloaded Elemental kernel, run the the CF root script, rebooted, typed the line inside terminal emulator. But then again no luck, now I'm left with a 32 gb unit that only displays 12 gb, and all I had on my storage seems to be gone. I also tried the flashable fix but nothing worked so far.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
From what I understand, this happens if you use MTP from within recovery, as that will muck up the permissions for when you're actually booted in to Android. The zip in the 2nd post should fix it, but to get it on your phone, you might need to sideload it or put it back on using MTP while booted into recovery.

Don't flash the userdata.img that Google provides in the factory images, it will format your 32GB phone into a 16GB version. Instead, use the command:

fastboot format userdata

Should restore all 32GB back.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] idbl_fanatic:
Did you try a factory reset in Lollipop?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TrenchKato:
Stock=odex
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
I said this earlier. If you flash the userdata.img from the factory image archive, it will default your storage to the smaller model (16GB in this case).

Instead of flashing userdata.img, use the following command:

fastboot format userdata

This will format your internal storage to the size reported by your bootloader. Google's instructions and implementation here are pretty shoddy.

Completely stock, odexed.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] slayp00n:
Ok i fixed it... I used TWRP to format data to ext2 then back to ext4 and it went back to normal size
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ÜBER™:
Clean flashed the ROM, radio, Franco kernel, and SuperSU. Up and running just fine. No issues to speak of on my end.

The flash process took a fairly long time and boot up the first time was around 4-5mins before it reached the setup wizard. Just a heads up, it takes a while the first time, just be patient.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] patmann03:
So I went from Stock Android 4.4.4 to this without wiping.

1. I rooted via Towelroot

2. installed supersu

3. downloaded and installed the bootunlocker app, unlocked the bootloader

4. installed flashify

5. installed the latest version of TWRP

6. installed the beta version of TiBu

7. backed up apps

8. Back up rom

9. Flashed the 5.0 rom from this thread... flashing took 5-10 minutes (closer to 10 IMO).

10. Rebooted, was at the loading screen for another 2-3 minutes or so

11. The android apps were optimized for another 5-10 minutes

12. Working so far... Not rooted atm, but may do that again

I've noticed the device is quite warm, but that could be because it took awhile to get it up and running. The batter has dropped quite a bit as well, so it may be that I do need to end up wiping the phone, but so far it seems to be working with no reboots (only been up and running for about an hour.).

I'm having some trouble. I flashed the ROM and radio with no problem, but I don't have root and can't access storage.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] letsgoflyers81:
I read through as much as I could but so many people were having different problems and seemingly found different solutions. As for flashing the kernel, I want to keep the stock kernel, so would I be able to flash it, flash SuperSU to get root and fix permissions, then flash back to the stock kernel? I don't even know where I'd find the stock kernel for 5.0.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] galakanokis:
CF-autoroot is a script that you run, it is not flashable and it is not run on your phone but from a pc while in fastboot. Read up on chainfires thread for more details. Either fastboot the boot.img or reflash the ROM from the OP, either will give you a stock kernel.

Accidentally thank you lol. Flash the new bootloader.

I think for sdcard problems you need to flash the newest bootloader before flashing the rom. I did that and I dont have any problems using the rom as primary or secondary using multirom.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] mixtapes08:
Damn I always pressed the wrong button today. Lol

Yes thats what I did.

I remember encountering those problems back at nexus s days that if you didn't update your bootloader and flash the latest firmware you'll have problems on your media files. So I make sure when a new firmware arrive I always flash the new radio and bootloader before installing the new rom.

The first thing you need to learn if you own a nexus device is that how to use adb and fastboot.

Install was good. How'd you go about rooting this since it's a secondary ROM? If I just run the CF-AutoRoot script how do I ensure that it targets only the Lollipop ROM?

Maybe because you didn't do it the 1st time... If I were you. Ill backup all my files and flash the whole factory image and lock my bootloader and unlock it again.

I decided to encrypt my phone, and now, when I boot into recovery (TWRP in case anyone is wondering), I can't flash anything because TWRP won't accept my passcode. I rebooted and flashed clockworkmod, then tried to see if re-flashing TWRP would fix the problem. It didn't. If I have to, I'll stick with clockworkmod, but is there any way I can decrypt my phone with TWRP without a full wipe?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dimex:
Yes, but how do I make sure running the .bat file of CF applies to only the secondary ROM of MultiROM and flashes the modified kernel + SuperSU to just that ROM? Won't it mess with the KitKat ROM I have as well?
