Is this because you did a Factory Reset and wiped 3 times? :cool:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koragg618:
No offense, but did you not read the last few pages...?

For those with the ZIP, try deleting the play services APK and try flashing the ZIP again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Prattham:
Can anyone else confirm the multi Rom error

If Someone Helped You Then Just Dont say Thanks...Hit The Thanks Button!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ali262883:
Deleting play services would require root right??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] neu242:
I installed using fastboot, and everything seems to work perfectly. I had to do a factory reset in TWRP, though.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Prattham:
Yes

[Nexus 5 Android Development] hotrodhell:
Koragg... My app didn't go to the last page. Hold your horses on the comments... I was trying to help rather then state the obvious. Yeez
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ali262883:
But no root rights currently?

Read the last pages....
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ryanbmw51:
so now my question is should the system.img file contain the other files such as bootloader and radio etc? or do i have to flash those at the same time? before after?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] garduna:
Yeah, its normal
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koragg618:
Yes I meant the ZIP. After that, erase system and flash again.

No.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Prattham:
Should I abort the installation?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] BorussenTobi:
But where in the ZIP can I find the playservices.apk?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ali262883:
K thanks [emoji4]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tylog:
It makes no sense to post all few minutes the same, stay tuned Guys.

ROOT not working ATM (no zip Fail)

Playservice crash.

Wait for a superSu Root Fix from Chainfire and crash fix.

It's pointless to ask all few minutes the same.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] tlopez1973:
Finally picture messaging works on lollipop
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koragg618:
Download the whole preview image, not the individual files if you want to flash it. Yes it will erase

everything

[Nexus 5 Android Development] hellsgod:
It seems root is working, if you set permissive selinux policy in the boot.img.

Does anyone know how to enable Exchange support again? I had the first Android L preview installed before I upgraded to LPX13D and Exchange worked perfectly there. Now Exchange is gone. Is it possible to snag it from my nandroid backup?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ethantarheels123:
play services fc'ing is after flashing the zip version.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] stefan2305:
The errors are coming up when people flash using the zip. Manually is fine.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ethantarheels123:
this is a known issue/(feature) in this latest dev preview build. Not sure of any known workarounds currently.

after flashing lolipop my windows 7 pc dont see the nexus device
[Nexus 5 Android Development] the.emilio:
Do a clean install.

This goes to everyone.. If you cannot take the time to do a CLEAN install before reporting bugs or that this app does not work (especially on Dev Previews) do not expect people to help.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Merckle:
So my phone was encrytped and flash no problem. Input my password and no issues. Well going back to flash the zip with no play services.... I cant get back in says my password is wrong

Any ideas?

*It will unlock when going into the rom. But going into Recovery it says my password is wrong
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
New test zip: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655047060

Clean Install it (if you flashed the last test) and pls report back :good:

how do i install the gms.apk ??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] runningwarrior08:
downloading
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Merckle:
Will try when I get back into the recovery rom
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koragg618:
Its because most people find it more convenient to flash a ZIP rather than use the preview IMGs (which is the way its supposed to be installed and its way faster at doing so).

--------------

I understand many of you want to try it out, but gosh it would be much better if a lot of people would stop complaining over and over about an issue that's been repeated for the last 5 pages.

1. vomer definitely knows the issue is present and it would make it a lot easier for him if the thread was not spammed by the same issue, so he could help to fix other issues that could arise.

2. Its a DEVELOPER preview, which means it has bugs, stop complaining over the same issue and start using the search button to find if your issue has been stated before.

Even though I didn't flash stock recovery, it somehow got flashed over TWRP when I tried to boot into it. I had to flash twrp again. :\
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
Can this final dev preview be used as a daily driver? I read that it has all the API's active, so theoretically this should be identical to the official factory image release.. Provided there are no bugs?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ast00:
The new messaging app and some other apks are missing, but it should work fine otherwise.

Calm down buddy, we're just letting him know we're downloading it so we can THEN provide useful information once we flash it. Internet warriors these days.

Second test is same problem with google service(

If delete folder N5_L_PREV_LPX13D.zip\system\priv-app\PrebuiltGmsCore - boot ok, but play market dont start. Maybe we make flash google service after install ROM?

Happened to me as well.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
Oh OK cool.

Could you enlighten me as to what this new messaging app is? Is it to replace hangouts?

The other missing apk's what are they if u don't mind?

I assume the other missing apk's can be downloaded from playstore or otherwise
