Has anyone re-installed Xposed after fastboot flashing the system, boot, and radio files?

Edit - Found my answer. Sorry for the post.
[Nexus 5 General] CNLiberal:
I can confirm that the above instructions worked. I also (after step 6) did a:

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.yadda.img

Then I moved to step 7 etc. Works great. I've even got Xposed and the modules working along with a new module "Exchange Bypass" that is working correctly.

This what I've done to get 4.4.3, correct me if I made a mistake:

What I have started with: 4.4.2 stock ART rooted with franko kernel and TWRP recovery, bootloader unlocked, debugging is on.

1. download factory 4.4.3 image

2. extract to adb/fastboot folder: boot.img, system.img, radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.50.1.13.img (bootloader seems the same as 4.4.2)

3. download to the phone super user zip from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

4. reboot into bootloader.

5. open command prompt and navigate to adb/fastboot folder

5. check if device is connected: fastboot devices

6. flash boot: fastboot flash boot boot.img

7. flash radio: fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.50.1.13.img

8. flash system: fastboot flash system system.img

8. IMPORTANT (i think) select to boot to TWRP recovery without rebooting the phone

9. flash previously downloaded superuser zip (SuperSU-v1.99.zip)

9. reboot system

10 after 10-15 of running app set up phone booted fine and root is present as well as 4.4.3 with now dialer app

11. Download SuperSU from play store."

The above worked like a charm for me, thanks!! It took less then 5 minutes to perform. It took about 5 more minutes to update all the apps.

I was stock, rooted and custom recovery with xposed installed, also from my Mac. I also added after 6; fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-hammerhead-hhz11k.img

Make sure to uninstall xposed, I did, I did not want to take the risk.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Fastbooted images on Sprint variant, up and running great. Signal on new radio does seem a hair weaker than I was getting using the 17 radio.. I did all this a few hrs ago.. Skipped bootloader as it was said its same as 4.4.2.. I loves my Nexus! 8D
[Nexus 5 General] nsxla:
well since your method didn't work i flash-all.bat all files and now my internal storage is wiped... I do have a nandroid backup i don't know if it saves internal files....... maybe i should just start fresh? =(

I did not uninstall xposed I hope it doesnt mess things up
[Nexus 5 General] reinert012:
LED notifications not working for anything. Any one else? Running 4.4.3 with gravity box.
[Nexus 5 General] gee2012:
Why not extract the rom and flash with flash-all.batt? Much easier and faster than seperate flashes imo.
[Nexus 5 General] darklordofthesith:
So, what's the word on the zip my man?
[Nexus 5 General] nsxla:
Yes after editing...to remove -w and deleting the userdata =]
[Nexus 5 General] gee2012:
Its best to flash a rom and do a full wipe/data factory reset or erase and flash userdata.img for the best result and restore the user apps and data later with TB or Helium imo ;)
[Nexus 5 General] dbolot1:
Well, because you ran flash-all.bat you also flashed userdata which wiped your data....nandroid should restore your data.
[Nexus 5 General] jackpollard:
Should not matter, when you finally boot into 4.4.3, I would go ahead and uninstall xposed, reboot, then just reinstall it. I think you should be ok, let us know.

Thank goodness for you. Just flash over KOT49H or does it need a full wipe before flashing this?

I don''t know what happened, but my Nexus 5 can't stay connected to either of my PC's (Win8 and Win7) for more than a second, and it's maddening. I've tried multiple cables and ports, and all that happens is I plug it in, it says "Connected as Media Device" and then it disappears and I can't see it in windows Explorer. On the Win7 machine, it stays connected long enough to ask to accept the RSA key but then it just goes away. Did my charging port go bad all of the sudden? :( If I can't do fastboot then I'm stuck with flashable zips.
[Nexus 5 General] midgarsormr:
Gonna make a back up and try it once it's done downloading. It's on multirom too so I have some leeway.

This works for stock rooted with TWRP and Xposed? Just flash like any other zip (after nandroid) and then clear dalvik and cache before reboot? Do you keep root after the flash or do you have to do anything else afterwards to regain root?

you have to download the factory image directly from the google developers site. You should get a file called "hammerhead-ktu84m-factory-53ff95bf.tgz". Once you extract that, you should get a folder with the same name containing the bootloader,image,radio etc.
