[Nexus 5 Android Development] evoschecter:
Awesome! just followed the OPs instructions and it worked, Apps working fine. One thing I noticed (If this has been solved please link me to the correct page) Pull down & notifications dont work? I can text the Nexus 5 and I'll get the LED flash that I got something but, I have to open the Original SMS app inorder to see it. Hangouts isn't picking it up. Thanks for the Help!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jeeeenx:
installed android L via the adb. (clean install)

flashed modded kernel (to fix supersu).

flashed supersu.

made a nandroid backup (TWRP).

works without a hiccup.

FOR MULTIROM

restored previous rom through recovery(TWRP).

installed multirom.

set android L (from nandroid backup) as a secondary rom.

multirom with android L XD
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
Did the MultiROM option and it broke my messages. All of them. SMS and Hangouts, they force close.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] david279:
Hangouts set as default SMS app?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] evoschecter:
Indeed, it is. Notifications/Pull down isn't working though.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GrandMstrBud:
What's this "multirom"? Sorry I've been out of it for a while
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jeeeenx:
like dual boot for your phone. you can install 2 or more roms and pick and choose which you'd like to run.

For u problem google play services and u flash the rom through recovery flash the system.img

This worked foe me
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sam razzy:
But without play store then how will download ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] evoschecter:
When I flashed it everything was on from the SDcard.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
I absolutely cannot get fastboot to work. I installed everything, my phone is recognized, and when I input the cmd (fastboot flash-all.bat) I get a list of things that I can enter, but nothing happens with my phone. No files are pushed/flashed to the phone. I am starting to lose my mind here because I am following every step and I am shot down every single time. [MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] I don't know how you and other Devs deal with things like this.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
Going to your thread now :) thnx

This is the error I keep getting.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] neobuddy89:
Titanium backup still not working after new boot.img and supersu flashed.

Any heads up?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] evoschecter:
Ok.. This is what I did. Went to the Toolkits section of the Google Nexus 5 Thread. Downloaded a toolkit. Flashed every step by step with the toolkit by following the OP's steps. (I don't know CMD or anything) and I flashed Android L perfectly and it's working fine. (Except Notifications)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sam razzy:
So my question is , if we delete the play store from the latest zip then the play store won't work. I passed the setup and how will I get the play store back.?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
you wait for me to post an updated rom with the fix :) I am trying to get it working right now
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sykopompos:
I got something that might help you with that. Give me a little bit to get it together.

Wish I could be more help because I know that headache but I don't got a n5 to work on it so I gotta wait till I get it working on the n4 to see

[Nexus 5 Android Development] marquimsp:
Quick question, I'm trying to flash twrp but, even though it flashes fine, when I boot into recovery it's stock (android) recovery, android lying down with red triangle etc.

Thanks in advance for any help provided.

BTW, adb devices shows my phone, but fastboot devices doesn't, I keep getting <waiting for device> if I try to flash from windows. I managed to flash twrp from bootloader (fastboot works there). Any help will be much appreciated.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
thanks! checking now!

lol - it will annoy me to no end if I can't fix that bug... :eek:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
well said :)

side note: can someone send me the path to the data partition?

should be somewhere around: /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/..............
[Nexus 5 Android Development] the.emilio:
I get the hangout notification no problem. Just tested it. Then again I did delete MMS.apk but that shouldn't matter.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Origin8:
Try Restarting the boot loader when you finish flashing twrp and then see if you can go into recovery. I had kind of the same issue and I fixed it by flashing - Flashable boot.img allowing root file from the OP as well as Super SU from OP in twrp. Make sure you have those files in your phone already before flashing twrp or you will still get the red triangle.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] marquimsp:
Thank you so much, that worked!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rush25:
[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] for crashing services did you add libs ?

any idea how can i just flash the camera app? i tried wiping data as well as disabling and re-enabling doesn't work hmmmm
[Nexus 5 Android Development] craigacgomez:
OK, first off.... you don not run bat files in linux. Those are Windows batch files

Second, the flash-all script is a wrapper script. You just need to run sudo ./flash-all.sh
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coreylhs:
is there a way i can push the google camera app into this preview without wiping again to fix the camera app?

it seems to keep force closing everytime i open it. only displays the front part when it asks for location tagging. there after force closes.

I've reinstalled all my apps already so im wondering whether its possible to fix it without wiping again.

Anyone can help?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nisby:
For Linux use . /flash-all.sh
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
Finally went ahead and did a total clean wipe. Anyone have issues getting custom notification sounds to work? They default to the default starting one. I swear I saw a fix for this somewhere.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tzfardaya:
So, Vomer and I just spent the last hour or so positing and testing theories... So far we haven't figured out a way to flash a zip that works properly... All our tests had Google play services fc at the tap to configure screen...

Looks like flash-all and fastboot are the only ways to install this dev prev so far.

We are going to take another look at it in the morning (just about 1am here, 3am for vomer) and try again..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Reinvented:
It's on Titanium Backups side. This happened with earlier L previews.

It might be a while before they push anything out. Follow them on Twitter for updates

What do you mean?

How about you help us help you by giving us more information?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Probably not a root problem, but a Tibu problem... Are you using Tibu from play store or the betas they tweeted?

---------- Post added at 12:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

Plug into your pc, boot to bootloader and install via flash-all... Or one of your backups..

[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] hey man thanks for your epic hard work and continued efforts to bring us all the latest goodies! just wanted to know what kind of patches and optimizations you applied to your ROM? I installed Tasssadar's ROM and just wondering if it's worth trying yours out
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Alankrut:
Not sure if that would be a good idea. Mine took 5-7mintues to flash, so maybe just wait a bit longer?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jdec529:
That zip from earlier that was getting stuck at the Google screen was the last one I tried. After that one wouldn't boot I tried to restore a back up and they were gone. So I flashed a different ROM but now my sdcard is like messed up. I have to go into the folder 0 to get my old data. Any idea how to fix. Thanks

Couldn't you just flash the boot.IMG with flashify after the first boot
[Nexus 5 Android Development] beaver2233:
don't you need root for that?

Sorry for the really dumb question, but I don't plan on using this as a daily driver, but I would like to know if I can flash this with multi ROM because when I try I get an error. Is there any way to do this? Lol I don't want to lose everything, just boot it up to look at it.

Thabks for your hard work guys, Vomer I believe was the first to the table with a flashable zip for the first L build :3
