When the phone is being charged the device doesn't sleep with screen off, no apps running in the background.

What is this?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hellsgod:
Its the charging itself.

Tassadars is a life saver - his install script works and I was able to use it as a template to build the rom.

I have added in some performance patches + gpu patches to this version so things should work smoother.

I love the new lockscreen notification letting you know when your battery is going to be full
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Alankrut:
Thanks!

Thanks so much Vomer!!

Quick question, how long did it take you to flash this?

I flashed the latest upload and have been waiting at the recovery for about 5 minutes

Edit: Just finished flashing a few seconds after I asked, lol. Should've waited. Thanks again!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] iLuvMudkips:
I edited my reply because it had taken me too long to decide what to write and it realized after posting that you had uploaded it. ;)

Thanks for your hard work! I'm literally flashing as I type. Great stuff :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] RedBlueGreen:
sorry for being such a noob.. but is this a flashable zip? or do i have to follow that install script?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] NexusS4gFreak:
Flashable
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Neophite31:
Ommmgggg!!!i have this error un install

Error executing updater binary un zip

Any idea?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Alankrut:
It's a flashable zip (Assuming you're looking at the latest one uploaded by Vomer)

Just make sure your /system is unmounted first and clean the usual stuff

---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

Using latest recovery? And which one?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Neophite31:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Starymari:
[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] I can flash this in twrp? I'm sorry, trying to catch up!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pinoyz:
I'm still getting the error aswell
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
It did I remember explicitly
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cop1976:
Error still exists...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
At least it boots... that's one issue down...

Delete the play services app folder and it should work (although the play store wont launch) for now...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] skw5115:
If you don't connect to WiFi it allows you to go through the rest of the set up however you can't install apps because of the Force closes
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jongcruz:
Great and promising .....patiently waiting.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
I don't understand how you're supposed to do this... Ive been in TWRP but whenever I try to do something its like nothing is mounted. But I cant mount it by itself. Then there is this play services issue, some dev preview
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theesotericone:
Really? 52 pages since I left for work this morning? Guess the last preview dropped. lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
Oh it dropped alright. But it refuses to cooperate as a zip file.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
Factory Reset in TWRP -> Flash ROM -> Flash modified kernel -> Flash supersu
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pinoyz:
Where is the folder located? I checked system/app and I can't find a folder that says play services.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
I cant it gives me a bunch of errors saying it isn't mounted
[Nexus 5 Android Development] paychex:
I'm sure the problem is you and not google
[Nexus 5 Android Development] durtoffmysboulda:
Booted

Well version 4 (with kernel and SU from OP) booted for me, that was a first! it just a preview of a preview. can't wait to use the full thing :)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Damian2013:
I can get to the desktop but no apps work at all. They just close.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] durtoffmysboulda:
followed this and it booted very quick (less than a minute) but got the play services has stopped. I know you are on it tho :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jadams212510:
I have a noob question. How do I convert tgz file to a img file?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jyouri:
The tgz is like a zip file. you need to extract it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AgrahamLincoln:
Hrm, well I've installed one of the previous versions (2nd attempt i think). I Had the same google play services as everyone but i managed to open up the zip and delete the GMS apk.

Once i got into the ROM i enabled debugging and used ADB to install google play services APK. now the apps "open" but they force close immediately. will attempt to reboot and see if i can actually get this to work.

BTW if you want to use ADB with android L you need to update to the newest SDK... for a while my phone only showed up as "offline" until i updated it and restarted the ADB server.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
delete this using TWRP:

system/priv-app/PrebuiltGmsCore
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
Followed the simple guide:

1. fastboot flash of the google img files, (fastboot flash-all.bat)

2. Boot phone, don't bother with account details etc yet.

3. PC connected should show Nexus 5, throw the rootable boot.img and SuperSU 2.14 into download folder

4. fastboot flash recovery with most recent TWRP.

5. In TWRP browse to download folder and flash rootable boot.img and THEN SuperSU 2.14

6. Reboot and your good to go, rooted with Android L (All API's :P)

No play services issues
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
I tried to remove the prebuiltgmscore and push the latest services apk to it and it won't even let me delete the prebuilt. Using root explorer BTW.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] paychex:
you don't. extract the contents
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djnigeldarren:
Test 4 .. Play services issue. Wipe ∆mount∆install∆reboot
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
People that have updated using fastboot... can you zip up this folder: system/priv-app/PrebuiltGmsCore

and send me a pm with the file? hopefully I can try debug why play services does not like flashable zips.... wonder if it is a "security" thing...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] scissors_cut_paper:
Exactly how ive just spent the last 10 minutes,works perfectly. Not sure i like my usual 380 dpi setting, are the ui elements smaller in this release or is it just me?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
So, this is my first time running L and I did a full fast boot flash. I don't seem to have heads up notifications... How do I enable?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Origin8:
Yep confirmed working.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
Try this...install the first l preview and flash this one over the old.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
I would do that but it wont even boot for me lmao
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] bro, I have to give a huge thanks to you man. You've spent all day working on this to get it to work and just wanted to let you know I appreciate it all!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Wombatino:
Doing this I will delete everything on my internal storage?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ali262883:
Is the 4th test zip working?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dualmoon:
No, the fourth is unfortunately having the same issue.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ali262883:
Okay [emoji20] [MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] thank you for trying really hard
[Nexus 5 Android Development] scissors_cut_paper:
Add busybox from OP to those instructions and voila...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] predator.sro:
nope
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
1. Reinstall first preview through nandroid or zip

2. Flash vomer's number 4 over it.

3. Clear Cache/Dalvik

4. Install root kernel in OP

5. Flash supersu 2.14

works like a charm for me.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
Should we boot into the first preview and set it up before flashing the 4th test , or do it all at once?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
I did reboot to make sure everything was still set up from my nandroid. I would guess you'd wanna boot first if fresh install and set everything up just to be sure.

Google Chrome doesn't work nor does javelin browser. Also, AOSP browser doesn't work either yet. Gonna take a wild stab at it and say probably because none of these are optimized to work yet.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Trajan19:
If you were on the L preview you can dirty flash from the zip posted (4th one). Works perfectly & have Root
[Nexus 5 Android Development] badboy47:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] wiswis:
Lol I have a pretty weird bug. I don't get any sound for my Kik notifications. What's wrong?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] crissbm:
Where can i find the first preview zip?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] badboy47:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] darshanbangre:
Flashed and while initial set up when I skip tap to restore am getting play service error and the set is relaunching from first.. What step am I missing here?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] asd87:
Thanks that worked! Messaging isn't working for me at all though. Hangouts or the AOSP SMS app. FCs every time I try to send a message.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
Are you guys administrators of your computers? Mine failed unless I ran as administrator
[Nexus 5 Android Development] raventothepowerofpi:
Hangouts

I am having a problem using hangouts, cant access my messages in the latest Lollipop developer preview, did dirty flash but also fixed the sdcard and such
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
Why don't u guys just all run the factory image over fastboot and then root.. I've got no problems at all this way.

I'm on android L final preview flawlessly right now with no issues at all. It's light speed BTW!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
Multirom failure haha. Otherwise I certainly would have.

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------

My hangouts worked...did you try to delete all traces of it and then play store install? It worked for me for chrome.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dEris:
Don't have PC atm
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
What's the process?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
Follow these simple steps:

1. fastboot flash of the google img files, (fastboot flash-all.bat)

2. Boot phone, don't bother with account details etc yet.

3. PC connected should show Nexus 5, throw the rootable boot.img and SuperSU 2.14 into download folder

4. fastboot flash recovery with most recent TWRP.

5. In TWRP browse to download folder and flash rootable boot.img and THEN SuperSU 2.14

6. Reboot and your good to go, rooted with Android L (All API's :P)

No play services issues
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hellsgod:
There's also a hard way to do it with multirom. Make a backup of your system, copy everything you need on your computer, flash the factory image, root, flash twrp, boot into the system, copy your stuff back, install multirom manager, boot into the recovery, make again a backup and restore your "old" backup as internal rom, restore "L" preview as second rom. Thats it :cowboy:

hells
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
Ah yeah. I don't feel like going through that process for a preview...lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] the.emilio:
Flashed via fastboot now that I'm home. Flashed kernel. Flashed SU. Oooooohhh my.. So smooth and sexy. So far everything works. MMS while on WiFi no issue using hangouts.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hellsgod:
Like me. As soon as kernel sources out and I've my kernel running, I'll flash the image straight and don't care anymore :D

hells
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cordell507:
It's hardly a preview anymore. Almost everything is complete.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
Still some quirks with dirty flashing. If vomer gets a working one I may just use that instead.

I'd still be using my 6 year old macbook if I had my way. Unfortunately fixing it would cost me a new laptop so I got the chromebook instead. I love it and the price. In all honesty waiting a day or two for a workable flashable zip. I just gotta have that "L"

Welp, just got home and fastboot flashed it lollipop. Working fine now, installed TWRP as well as the root patch and SuperSU. Just wanted to give a heads up to everyone, TiBu doesn't seem to be working just yet.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
I feel you man I'm loving this final L preview right now. If I was in ur situation I'd be off to the nearest Internet cafe lol. With the steps I posted it take no more than 10 minutes to get it up and running fully rooted

[Nexus 5 Android Development] LuffyPSP:
Oh demmm. Hahahahahahaha.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] swirly05:
Thanks for the reply... Could you help with an answer. Im going the Mac fastboot way and do i flash the img file?? How do I boot it?? Thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] linkboy:
It does, you need to download and sideload the test version from the developers twitter.

You can find a link in the other thread on the L preview
[Nexus 5 Android Development] THE_KINGDOM:
Fastboot flash it using the Mac commands in command terminal
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Damian2013:
Everything is working great for me I just said eff it and did it fastboot style. Got root and everything. Working great no bugs.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] durtoffmysboulda:
Well I can get to the launcher etc but when I try to open playstore it crashes and can't log-in to my google account etc
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
Yeah I've tried a bunch of things by trial and error to get this to work....having no file manager doesn't make it any easier.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
Whats the best way to install lollipop??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Origin8:
This is the best way:

If you are having boot loops you have to reflash the new developer preview through fastboot and then you can install a custom recovery and root as well.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] paychex:
It's still up to the apps to use the api
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
that's supposed to happen as you got rid of play services. try installing this apk: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655047049
[Nexus 5 Android Development] davehasninjas:
Yea, I'm using Test-5 which was the latest test app off of Twitter. Not working, or at least it isn't for me. It just hangs on any kind of restore.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
So if I get bootloops I just reflash and it will be gone?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] noolis:
Anybody with titanium?

rooted but titanium not...everything else is ok!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] paychex:
FASTBOOT
[Nexus 5 Android Development] galakanokis:
I decided to take the plunge and just fastbooot flash, working great right now. Will attempt to restore certain apps from Titanium Backup as soon as everything copies over.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ZacksBuilds:
I already know this..... I can't boot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pinoyz:
How will you be able to install the apk when there is no file browser that comes with the preview?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] LuffyPSP:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
click on the notification once the download is done....

or adb push
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dEris:
Really wish I could flash this. #NoPCRightNow
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Origin8:
They should be gone, afaik there is no fully working flashable zip for the new l preview that you can flash through twrp. The latest one I believe has FCs with google play services. Try doing it the fastboot method and it should work. Backup all your stuff as it will delete everything in your phone although you can keep your data by editing the the flash-all.bat file and remove -w from the script but I found that it's easier if you start off fresh as I ran into some complications by keeping my data.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mbrook:
The home button isn't working and the secondary drop down menu doesn't work. Flashed over android l 81c. Any ideas for a fix? Tried reflashing to no avail and followed the install instructions. On version 4.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pinoyz:
Yeah, it says "Unfortunately, Browser has stopped." when I try to open it. So I guess I'll have to adb push it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] darshanbangre:
Can someone make flashable zip of this.. if we flash it.. I think we can get rid of even the initial set up play services error
[Nexus 5 Android Development] midgarsormr:
adb push didn't work for me with play services either. Even after reboot...then wipe. Hm what next? Just getting a 1 second screen turn on back into boot animation loop.

Could it be from chmod 644?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:
Thank you. I downloaded the wrong boot image and couldn't figure it out. Now I have fastboot flash clean install, latest twrp, and SuperSU rooted L! Thanks for everyone who posted helpful hints all the way.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pinoyz:
So after installing the Play Services you provided (v6.1.11+(1474901-038).apk), Play Services still doesn't work.

I also tried v6.1.74 (1511752-03x). It doesn't work also.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theamazingaustin:
Titanium had a test build for the L preview a while back, a Google search should get you there. That was on the old build though. Worth a try.

Here is one link, but i think it's old.
