Read my post a few pages back. Go to cf-auto root on xda, scroll down and download the nexus5 file. Put your phone in fastboot mode and run the batch script from your PC. When you reboot your phone if you can't see the superSU app, just download it from playstore. That's it

Question for you. I wiped my phone last week and then I see that when I'm in my car and connected to bluetooth, my phone never sleeps. It's awake the entire time I'm in the car, even if not on a call or playing music, and loses quite a bit of battery (an amount I think it much more than before). Is that normal and I only noticed because I wiped and was specifically looking at my battery stats repeatedly?

[Nexus 5 General] ZeGuitarist:
One to add to the "cons" list:

Graphical glitch when accessing camera from lock screen (after doing this, the "fade in" animation when unlocking the screen is broken, fixed only by reboot).

This was present in 4.4.2 as well, but not in 4.4, so it hasn't been fixed, apparently.
[Nexus 5 General] jordan.harris01:
If you're familiar with fastboot, I'd just flash it from there. Very quick. You also wouldn't lose any data... But make sure you actually know what you're doing before proceeding.
[Nexus 5 General] mikejeep:
Nexus OTAs are sent out by Google, not wireless providers. The distribution process is random and there is no way to speed it up for yourself. Clearing Google Services framework is ineffective and discouraged by Google because it has negative side effects. Hitting the update button repeatedly also does nothing. This is by design. Google releases OTAs to a very small percentage of users in the first few days, then ramps it up. It takes up to 2 weeks for everyone to have an opportunity.

I don't know what you mean by "there is no fix for bugs we know about", but one major fix that is listed but I haven't seen mentioned is the problem from 4.4.1-4.4.2 where background services were being inappropriately killed off. That's huge.

Yes, you can flash any radio of your choice on any Android version. They all seem to work interchangeably. I am using the .13 radio on 4.4.2 myself for the moment.

[Nexus 5 General] jj14:
After installing 4.4.3, did you load new hosts file in AdAway? If not, do that, reboot and see if that fixes the issue. (the 4.4.3 install would have restored your original hosts file)
[Nexus 5 General] CNLiberal:
Last night, I had the same issue. AdAway wouldn't write the host file to /etc/hosts (or wherever). I had to remove AdAway from SuperSU, then open Root Explorer, navigate to /, then mount it RW. After that, AdAway was able to request root, and write the new hosts file.

I flashed boot.img and system.img and everything was fine.

Then I also flashed the new radio and now play store crashes and it says "no service". Baseband version unknown. IMEI unknown.

Restoring a 4.4.2 backup and reflashing the old radio did not help.

Any idea what's up and how I can help it?

[Nexus 5 General] andrewNY:
Installing Busybox (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox) usually seems to fix AdAway issues for me. If BusyBox is installed, AdAway will default to using that instead of its own buggy internal code.

[Nexus 5 General] Akr706:
Updated Again ! :)

For those, who want to know noticeable changes.

Pros/Cons for updating to 4.4.3

Pros:

* New Dialer Interface.

* Noticeable Camera Improvements (Faster focus).

* WiFi drop issue seems to be sorted out.

* Smoother than earlier, faster app switching.

* "mm-qcamera-daemon" bug also seems to be sorted out (nobody much sure about it yet).

* Improvements in output audio quality of speakers and low volume on wired headsets.

Cons:

* Hissing sound still there while recording video.

* "Fade-in" animation while unlocking the screen still disappears after camera is accessed from lockscreen (fixed after a reboot).

* LED Notifications still now working for missed calls, also not working with some text messaging apps (Can be fixed via apps like light flow, etc.).

* Data Drops still there (as reported by a user).

Will update if i find any other.

Running 4.4.2 now (KOT49H) TWRP Custom recovery + rooted with some toolbox.

I saw some how-to's here in this topic how to update.

Just downloaded 4.4.3 from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#hammerheadktu84m

There is a"flash-all.bat" attaced. Use that?
[Nexus 5 General] ZeGuitarist:
I hear you. I just tried Lockscreen Policy though, and it seems it can only disable the camera icon, not hide it. A nonfunctional camera icon, just sitting there on my lock screen? That's another eyesore I just can't stand.

Yes, I might be a little autistic.
[Nexus 5 General] rayiskon:
Flash-all will wipe your /data too

I did that already. Everything is flashing well except system... Remember I'm on OSX.
[Nexus 5 General] Pietplezier:
Dont like to lose my data..

Some guy @ page 5 says this:

NOTE: Bootloader should be unlocked for this method to work. Root not required.

1) Download the factory image relevant to your Nexus from the below page.

2) Unzip the .tgz file and keep it under, say C:/

3) Edit the "flash-all.bat" and remove the "-w" parameter from "fastboot -w update image-takju-jwr66v.zip"

4) Delete "userdata.img" from "image-******-*******.zip".

5) Copy fastboot.exe file into the “******-*******” directory.

6) Reboot and keep the phone in fastboot mode. [ a) Turn on USB Debugging b) Turn off your Phone c) Hold down Volume UP + Volume Down + Power buttons ]

7) Issue the command "flash-all.bat".

8) Wait for the process to finish, and then the Galaxy Nexus will reboot upgraded with stock Android 4.4.x

9) Cheers and enjoy !!!

Step 10 is to use CF-root to gain root again?

That definitely seems excessive. It also looks like you might be in poor cell coverage, which can also contribute too. I never bothered to check in WLD about whether Bluetooth was keeping the CPU awake on 4.4.2. I just assumed it was kinda funky because the Bluetooth icon stayed white long after I got out of my car. Here's mine on 4.4.3 driving about 10-15 minutes to work:

The issue you showed doesn't happen to me on 4.4.3. I flashed all of the factory image files and went back to stock then factory reset and rerooted. I wanted to wipe everything since I was having many issues with other things that appear fixed.

You flash the latest SuperSU from Chainfires website, think its version 1.99R3 after a reboot and you're rooted and good to go. (This method assumes you were upgrading from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 and have access to TWRP/CWM)

Do i need a Custom Recovery to flash supersu.zip?
[Nexus 5 General] jrotert:
Easy way to update from stock 4.4.2 w/o losing data/user settings/root.

I apologize if this has method already been mentioned, but I thought I would pass along if it hasn't. You need a custom recovery already installed for this.

D/L factory image hammerhead-ktu84m-factory-53ff95bf.tgz, and extract boot, system, and radio imgs on PC. Ensure latest SU zip is D/L'ed to N5's SD card. Backup current apps w/ TiBu. Reboot N5 to recovery and clear cache/dalvik cache, nandroid current setup, reboot into fastboot, and flash the three extracted imgs. Boot into recovery and flash latest SU. Reboot and enjoy 4.4.3.

The only thing I had to mess with to fully return to earlier 4.4.2 configuration was Xposed Mod settings: Just had to re-enable Xposed Installer, reboot, and then restore data only via TiBu for Xposed modules (e.g., GravityBox). All my previous Xposed Mod tweaks work w/o having to set them all back up manually.

[Nexus 5 General] pinoymutt:
Most likely not because the OTA is usually a patching process and will be looking for stock pieces (like recovery and kernel) to append to and may abort if it detects certain changes.

This thread will give you a good idea of what you should do to prepare if you want to use the OTA when it becomes available.

I would imagine if you flashed the stock recovery back (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img where recovery.img is the stock recovery) and didn't delete any stock apps you would be fine. Then if you use the supersu survival mode (paid option I think) it would probably preserve root. I doubt the google OTA will wipe system.
