L is nice, must say so. Understand this is Preview release, an early stage of development... OK... Can confirm Xposed framework is not working. Also, you can't remove any of system apps, no matter if I have root (SuperSU v2.00) and I have busybox too (v1.21.1). Whatever, I love L!!! :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
OP updated with patched supersu. Modified boot.img is not needed making the process simpler :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
some apps don't support it yet. I heard root explorer works though.

Camera crash

Well i know it's a known problem but i don't know if someone has fixed.. I can't take a picture. I open the camera and for the first time i take and it doesn't save the photo.. from the second time i can't open the camera "can't connect to camera".. Honestly.. it's a very big problem to me.. Is there some fix about it? Thanks

For those of you with working MMS, your still on 4.4 radio?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ckeathley:
[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] Thank you so much for your hard work. Guys THIS IS A PREVIEW build. Things will not work. Give the developers some time to play to see what they can come up with. WIP. :cowboy:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] info[]box1:
I flashed the radio with cwm recovery. No issues

[Nexus 5 Android Development] stewartk:
i flashed mine using fastboot, and made a recovery after rooting, ive installed stuff thats making it reboot a lot so i went back to my back up but its lost the contents of my sdcard. is this normal, or should i reflash using zip

[Nexus 5 Android Development] adamsweeting:
Jeez...... SO many people are like "this doesn't work.... that doesn't work - HELP!"

It's a DEVELOPER PREVIEW!!!! - If you can't live without certain apps FC'ing or crashing - then don't flash this. Simple as that.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] t0ad:
Posting just to say thank you to vomer for all the hard work in such a short amount of time. I wiped and flashed L last night and it's working beautifully so far, especially for a preview build. Everything is working just fine here, even root after I flashed the modded boot.img and supersu in TWRP. For some reason adblock plus FC's when I attempt to update my hosts file, but that's no biggie. Gonna give it a few days to see how she runs as a daily driver.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jnoles07:
Has anyone tried dirty flashing this? I know it isn't recommended but I don't want to lose all of my music.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] punticci:
Maybe it's because is a preview build. It can't erease 16 gb from your phone :) it's a "display" issue.. But this is a supposition. Anyway, some has resolved with the camera?

Hey guys I'm using carbon rom (4.4.3) so can I directly flash those zips or I've to go back on stock rom??

[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
no need to go back to stock.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] punticci:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dr.Pagan:
LMAO
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Nelsocracy:
That's kinda what happened to me and this method worked for me, so it's probably worth a try at least. The phone isn't really usable without sdcard.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] punticci:
Guys none of you has camera problem??? Am i the only one?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] stewartk:
was yours fine after the zip flash
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThePresence:
Thanks buddy you're tha man..... ☺
[Nexus 5 Android Development] t0ad:
Camera works just fine over here. HDR+ photos seem to process a lot slower than they did in 4.4, but it does work.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Nelsocracy:
Yeah but only after I followed the steps in my earlier post. First couple of times I tried the zip flash I did it the op way and ended up without sdcard.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
nope, fine here.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jirka607:
Anyone knows why after clean flash i have systemUI stop problem?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] deck82:
Did that happen to fix any MMS issues you were having? That's the only issue that I have found so far that keeps this from being a DD.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hannibal226:
Did u restore any modifications which can cause this problem?

Otherwise a bad flash and I would recommend a retry.

Much success

[Nexus 5 Android Development] kronflux:
a lot of people are uncomfortable with any form of command line whatsoever. if they have to open a command prompt or terminal, they simply won't bother.

A GUI makes it stupid simple.

That having been said, in my opinion, people who are that uncomfortable ought not to be flashing a developer preview to their device.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndroidInsanity:
Been searching everywhere!! Anyone know issues/bugs with this developer preview??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kronflux:
The download link that you quoted is NOT for the Nexus 5. It is for the Nexus 7(Hence the "N7" in the quote)

ok, here is my first attempt at the flashable zip:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358553365

I need testers - follow the steps below:

- Boot into recovery
- Un-mount /system in TWRP/CWM
- Wipe: system, data, dalvik and cache
- Flash ROM (be patient - takes a while)
- Reboot (first boot takes while)

Backup your old setup before trying - Please provide feedback.

I just found out that Drop Box isn't working. I'm about to try the web version and see what happens. Also I'm seeing some minor graphic glitching when swiping with the stock keyboard. Nothing major but you can see some transparent issues.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to use this as a daily driver. The apps that I really care for seem to work great.. Minus a few root dependent apps.

Edit: I'm about to live life dangerously by seeing if Viper4Android works. May the Google Gods be with me!!!!!!

I don't think that would work because AKAIK you need to have Titanium installed and have given it root before flashing the update.zip or it won't restore data.
