When u install twrp thru fastboot start recovery dont boot up system till after you boot up twrp
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Circaflex:
I'm going to bang my head on a desk.... this has been asked dozens of times and answered by me flash the preview, then fastboot format cache then fastboot recovery recoveryname.img

You must do the format cache portion before flashing twrp or you get the robot !
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jamaljmys:
as simple as that ? :o

thank you man, its done
[Nexus 5 Android Development] movielover76:
Thanks for taking the time to build a flashable zip, it works great only issue I see is that hangouts doesn't seem to want to sent SMS from my mobile number always using google voice number. That's OK I can go old school with messaging for awhile.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koersten:
This is very close to stable for me. But it will take a while to be sure about this.

Really like this preview. Thanks to Thread Starter to provide this great zip for us.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndroidKills:
super dope job Vomer, btw curious is it normal for flashing the rom to take 5+ mins?

edit- totally loving Android L right now! Battery life seems better for me
[Nexus 5 Android Development] warrenis1234:
eh I'll figure this out later, more important though, my file manager is showing an empty storage card, even though in twrp they're all right where they should be

i have a feeling i did something wrong in terms of the mount. can anyone clarify before i try again?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
In terminal su

restorecon -FR /data/media/0

Should help but I haven't had that problem since the first dev prev
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
I think this is my issue as well
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Viruss57:
I installed the preview via MultiROM and just let the Play Store re-install the apps. Google Hangouts is working fine for me - no delay with SMS from my number. . though I didn't use Titanium Backup or anything to restore app data.

Haven't restored any messages yet, but SMS Backup/Restore has worked for Hangouts when I've done it in the past.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mauijpm:
Mine took almost 15. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MidnightDevil:
I think I may have experienced something similar, some of my messages got stuck on "Sending" status then they were suddenly sent, I assumed it was some network issue.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bulgareli:
Is there any way to get the volume keys to wake the device in this L preview? Thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theseventensplit:
From what little I've used Lollipop I couldn't go back to KitKat; this is amazing.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aliwho:
Rom's running great--thanks Vomer!

Is anyone else having trouble with Titanium Backup not being able to get root access?

I flashed the modified kernel and supersu zip linked in the OP. I also installed Busybox via the link in the OP, and that app had no problems with getting root.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sjknight413:
You need to use the titanium backup beta from titanium backup's twitter, from personal experience though it won't restore apps unless you flash the permissive boot.img that has been doing the rounds.

Sent from my Cyanogenmod + ElementalX powered Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] warrenis1234:
worked instantly, thank you

for those reading who were unsure, i downloaded the terminal app, typed su to grant root, then typed the above
[Nexus 5 Android Development] killersloth:
It's a shame I can't get the tethering to work. I'm really impressed with the new design.

Fancy rolling status bar icons are fancy.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] luisangel89:
Just to see if anyone else was having this problem. I did a backup for the ROM and then tried to restore it but i couldn't. It just got stuck in the boot animation. Anyone having this issue?

I heard that was a feature.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GaSpartacus:
It is indeed...a nice one actually in my opinion :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:
Those trying to restore from a with titanium from a non L ROM, personally, I don't think its a good idea. This is a fresh, new version, you should redownload your apps again. Your just asking for problems. I only use 6 apps from play store, so its not an issue. I also get minimal misc drain. Facebook then screen are my biggest battery drains. This ROM is awesome. I've only encountered exchange mail( I'm using mymail for now), and calendar(downloaded google calendar instead) that are not working. This is a very very stable preview. Don't screw it up by restoring stuff.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ilaf0106:
Can you show me which boot.IMG to flash for tib to work
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bulgareli:
The one that is in OP.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bmakk2055:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Isley_:
Is working very fine, and no problems with good root, thank you very much for this
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mchlbenner:
I would recommend using this it worked great.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aliwho:
Works great, thanks.

Another problem: I can't seem to send MMS messages because I have no APN specified. When I go to the cellular network settings, there aren't any options for modifying the APN for my phone.

Any ideas?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Circaflex:
Lemme guess you're on sprint? Apn settings will not show up for CDMA carriers you can use nova launcher to create a shortcut that will show the apn settings or I know hangouts will let you modify sprint apns for MMS its under settings -> SMS towards the bottom of hangouts
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/global --bind name:s:tether_dun_required --bind value:i:0

That's the old tethering hack command
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
I've seen the APN notification but I've been able to send and receive MMS and I'm on sprint
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
Refresh profile and prl ?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
Might be an issue with your flashng method.. Just saying . MMS was one of the first things I checked. Only thing is native tether out the box isn't working. But its cool
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
You try this

adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/global --bind name:s:tether_dun_required --bind value:i:0

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Circaflex:
Tethering works fine here (T-Mobile)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
It doesn't work on sprint, hack is needed.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
Probably works with wifitether router ap from play store. That worked with first dev prev. Lol really wished it worked native. Like 4.4 :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
Did you try this

adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/global --bind name:s:tether_dun_required --bind value:i:0
[Nexus 5 Android Development] chef_w:
OK.

I think I've found a solid way to get the exchange services working.

Disable the built-in email app.

From the play store, download the email app by google. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.email

Then, install the google exchange services apk. http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358541514

Everything worked perfectly for me after that.

Hopefully that helps someone. I can't use a ROM without exchange, but now this build is perfect.

Thanks for all the great work!!!

Why do I need to flash radio.zip?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Circaflex:
If you're asking a question like that I'm really not sure the preview is the best idea for you...

[Nexus 5 Android Development] xqz:
Do you mind linking the play store app? I am browsing through Google developed applications but I cannot find the email application
[Nexus 5 Android Development] chef_w:
Yup no worries.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.email

Updated the original post too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] xqz:
Not available in Canada. No wonder.. Thanks anyways!

I installed the exchange apk but it force closes right after installing. Not sure if I need the email app from the play store first
[Nexus 5 Android Development] luisangel89:
Anyone having this issue above??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] chef_w:
Bummer!!!

Yeah, I tried just the exchange services apk with the default email app, and it FC on me too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:
Dude, your awesome. Works perfectly. Now I got stock email working. Great workaround! This should be posted in the OP as a workaround for now. Muchos gracias!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bricky23:
I was able to send mms at first after flashing. In fact everything was great. Flashed with fastboot. Wiped all. But now there is a notification across the bottom of the screen .....no apn specified on device. I can't get rid of it. Now I can no longer send mms. I am on sprint.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dimex:
I'm about to have a go at MultiROM, never used it before. Are all the steps in the OP (Flash ROM -> Flash Radio -> reboot -> Flash Modified Kernel -> Flash SuperSU) required for MultiROM install as well? The instructions for MultiROM install in post #657 are a bit different.

Thanks dude
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Lim Wee Huat:
Multirom's way of installation is easier and safer.. No errors or fcs. Working great.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
Dunno I've sent a gang of pics .... Been working entire time the apn didn't stay just faded
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dimex:
Least helpful response imaginable. Does the MultiROM installation include flashing radios and boot imgs as outlined in the OP, or just mirroring the instructions in post #657?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
Sprint to T-Mobile she's in the other room didn't sent as a Google voice pic link either just an MMS
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ryukiri:
I just flashed ROM, kernel, and SU all at once without rebooting or anything. Good luck! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] muaythai619:
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

You need to add a new entry to the global table called "tether_dun_required" with a value of 0.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dimex:
Had to flash radio as well?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
The only app that FC's for me is Amazon. Hadn't worked at all..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PyroDroids:
Thank you, This worked for me!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Lim Wee Huat:
Multirom's way is to restore via backup. It doesn't involve flashing boot image or radio. Guess it's a much safer route.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] mchlbenner:
Yep just edit build prop.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Lim Wee Huat:
Though i didn't try but i did some own buildprop modifications, It shouldn't have any problems with dpi modification too. SD maid's app control feature can be used to freeze whatever system app unneeded.

I flashed your modified kernel and chainfire's su zip
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
its a problem with TB - search the thread... 20 other people have mentioned it
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bobby janow:
Try it. Can't get it to stick. It's the first thing I tried. What program did you use to make it hold?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Venomous Viper 119:
I've tried it twice with no success. Flashed the factory image & then after flashing the latest twrp, rebooted into recovery & flashed the modified kernel & then SuperSU. But after selecting reboot into system, the phone keeps booting into the recovery mode repeatedly after showing the Google logo.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bricky23:
Well I reinstalled hangouts, and message has gone away. Coincidence? I don't know. I also installed tetra. Using that MMS works. I will just have to see how it goes. Can't imagine going back to 4.4.4

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Niksko:
Great work Vomer. Thanks heaps. Working perfectly!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] einrae214:
Flash ROM then radio reboot. Run setup reboot device flash kernal and su. Boom
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bobby janow:
I'll try that. Thanks.

Edit: worked!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aliwho:
Yup, Sprint.

Your solution worked perfectly. Changing the APN using Hangouts did it (after a reboot).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TheArc:
Is the radio really necessary, does it actually increase network and such?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] acridity:
to those who have already flashed the new zip in the op. How long did you guys had to wait on the google logo, not the boot animation but the logo. It appears i have the same problem as some of the guys who tried the previous zip.

For me less than 5 minutes

i installed busybox via google play store but it wont install busybox. Anyone else having this problem?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] _Infamous_:
No issues are you using multirom I seen people say they are having SD card issues with it
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mrakifa:
No not using multirom
[Nexus 5 Android Development] acridity:
Take it easy guys. Even though root works apps like greenify, busybox and helium backup just wont work. Its a developers preview and its just been 9 hours.

P.S dont even try to give helium root access, you will end up in boot loop. I've tried :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 07AP2Zo:
Yes "no SD card" here as well....any work around??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] iLuvMudkips:
I have a bit of a problem guys...

So basically I have full-disk encryption enabled and I setup a pattern lock after flashing Android L. I'm not rooted yet and when I try to boot into TWRP and enter the password it says it is invalid.

Any options?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hannibal226:
So upload 40-45% done and surly will take 1-2 hours more, but I will go sleep now.

All who want link to .zip can write me a PM and as far as I'm awake I'll answer PMs with links+flash guide

PS: If [MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] should answer while I'm asleep, I'll share the .zip in thread tomorrow...

CHEERS ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] tauzins:
this is what im trying to figure out... also i noticed that everything in my sdcard got moved to a 0 folder.....
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dcdttu:
Wiped phone (after a backup) and installed the zip. Boot animation came on, phone was dark, bright, then dark, then 'android' came up and it went into the setup. So far so good. It's installing apps now. AMAZING WORK OP! Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] info[]box1:
Everything worked fine. Flash was golden. Also flashed the superuser now I'm bout to flash the boot img.

I have not experienced none of those bugs. camera SD card etc
[Nexus 5 Android Development] luisangel89:
Flashed the boot.zip and still don't have root.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dror520:
Did anyone try to flash this without wiping system and data?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sam.balia1012:
Same here
[Nexus 5 Android Development] evoschecter:
Okay, So after following the instructions which are plain and simple.

**What Works**

Camera, Root, Basic Google Apps, Lockscreen, Phone calls, SMS (send and receive)

pretty much all the basic stuff needed to use on a phone is working.

**What doesn't**

MMS

This is of course MY experience! Apparently after reading this thread all day

it differs for different users.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cjwaggsrx8:
Lol. Tell us us that goes for ya bud...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] BTT8:
So you can make a nandroid via twrp, flash "L", and eventually restore your nandroid later?

I have one problem with root, I used adb and fastboot to install and everything works great no play store problems or anything.

Probably not the right place to ask this but has anyone made a cwm flashable LPX13D zip for the nexus 7?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] faiz2036:
It's system reboot. Let the rom boot first, and then boot to recovery to flash modified kernel and supersu
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Isley_:
More easy, flash ROM flash RADIO and reboot to see if all is working fine, then go to recovery install kernel and SuperSu and reboot. That's all
