You made sure to download the right factory image right? I know it's an obvious thing but we have to start somewhere.
[Nexus 5 General] Inigo Montoya:
Agreed. Did exactly what you did. The only issue I'm having is with Exchange but I don't care I just disabled it. Other than that 100% working.

how do i completely wipe clean (like out of box)?
[Nexus 5 General] jsgraphicart:
Yeah, then for some reason, it isn't flashing. You should be on LRX21O. Try the flashable zip and see if that helps.

I noticed that installing Lollipop brought the stock recovery back. Am I perfectly safe to reflash the TRWT now?
[Nexus 5 General] jsgraphicart:
Maybe something just didn't flash when you went through the process. Like maybe system.img didn't install. I don't know. Try that flashable zip though and let me know how that works for you.
[Nexus 5 General] dannejanne:
Well you could before too. Just that you had to swipe down the notifications first.

In my opinion a lockscreen ain't really a lockscreen for the sake of protection as long as you don't have a pin. Just a protection so the phone has a lesser chance of going wild in your pocket by itself.

[Nexus 5 General] GldRush98:
Right. I guess I'll re-enable notifications on it for now and see how it goes. I just don't want my thigh clearing off notifications with out me seeing them. Having to unlock to pause or skip a song every time though is going to very quickly become a nuisance.

My gmail seems to be working good so far as well.
[Nexus 5 General] jsgraphicart:
I have never had any issue with my phone doing anything my pocket. But if you set a lock (pin, pattern, etc.), it gives you options to what notification you want to show. Set it to hide sensitive material and notifications will show, but you will have to unlock to open them. Music will show like normal I believe.

Old calendar back !

Hi. Quick question?

Any way to uninstall this horrible new calendar and install back the old one?

I have the old apk but Im unable to unistall the new one via playstore, i guess because it was flashed as part of the rom.

I have no root

Thanks!

Secure Settings System+ Module

Has anyone else had issues enabling the System+ Module of Secure Settings? The rest of the app seems to function properly but I get an error (unable to grant permissions) when I attempt to enable the module. I used Chainfire's auto-root tool, and I haven't noticed issues with any of my other root apps.

I'm using this with Tasker to enable/disable GPS and NFC based on certain apps opening/closing. It worked just fine with the last iteration of the developer preview. If anyone knows of an alternative way to do this that works with Lollipop let me know.
[Nexus 5 General] S3cret:
I'm also having a huge battery drain.

Left for Uni with 75%, 40min later with listening to music and some surfing I had 48%. While the display was off during my lecture it gained some % (wtf??) and when I arrived home 1 hour later it was at 28%.

No mods, tweaks or whatever. Clean flash, Auto root and least amount of backups for apps used.

[Nexus 5 General] gaurav2009:
Reboot fixed it for me somehow..
[Nexus 5 General] tatnai:
I don't know if all that is necessary. Here's what I did starting with a locked Nexus 5 on stock 4.4.4:

1. factory reset from within OS

2. bootloader, fastboot oem unlock, reboot to bootloader

3. flash-all.bat (after unzipping the factory image into the platform-tools folder)

4. booted up and hung, forced power off and back into fastboot, then rebooted and booted fine into lollipop

5. back to bootloader; ran cf-auto-root

6. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (using twrp 2.8.1.0)

I flashed no new kernel, running stock 5.0. I have root (supersu recognizes apps and gives permissions, I am using titanium backup just fine), and my custom recovery is there. multiple reboots, no issues. I don't think you need a special permissive kernel to maintain root if you don't want one...
[Nexus 5 General] td32:
well good to know this was fixed.

You don't have to wipe anything before flashing the image. It's not like flashing a zip file rom.

[Nexus 5 General] tatnai:
can't install the app, or can't install apps using TB?

mine installed just fine. I did install the play store version first, then installed this version over it. I have not installed apps using it, but have deleted system apps (which requires root), and works just fine. you have checked the setting to allow sideloading apps, right?

I have downloaded the factory image from the google site and see the extention is. tar

When I use winrar to extract it I have a file without extention???

Can someone let me know what I am doing wrong?

I am currently running the preview and can't recall I did something special to extract that file
[Nexus 5 General] Leogrina:
I had very hard time on windows 8.1 flashing factory image. No toolkit or anything fancy, I used the terminal to flash everything manually. I think there was something buggy with the USB drivers. That's strange because I made shire to update everything with the SDK manager . then I used a pc with windows 7 on it and everything went fine. Just in case :)
[Nexus 5 General] goughymachine:
That's what I'm trying to use right now! It all went smoothly for my N7, but when I tried to flash what I'd downloaded it ends up saying system.img missing, and I'm left in KK. The second time I got NRT to redownload the file but again I got the same system.img missing.

Don't suppose anyone has any clues?

[Nexus 5 General] pseudotrash:
I had the same issue- Try renaming the file ".tgz", then extract.
[Nexus 5 General] goughymachine:
Yeah, bugger eh. I'm not that bright! I've tried to install adb and fastboot using the guide on Phandroid which is that easy setup thing. I go through that, do the drivers etc. But after extracting the img and copying the bootloader and radio into the same folder, then open command prompt, changing to the directory the files are in, when I type the first fastboot command it comes up with 'fastboot is not recognized etc etc etc. I don't have a clue what I'm doing then, so maybe I just need to stop and wait for the OTA :crying:
[Nexus 5 General] shhbz:
for those facing issue first remember to match the mD5 once assured extract hammerhead-lrx21o-factory-01315e08.tar using 7zip you will land up with another single file, now extract that too you will get a folder containing 6 files.

now boot in bootloader and connect with usb

now just click on flash-all.bat

done wait for few min 153.25 sec in my case

phone will reboot to the new android 5.0 official

[Nexus 5 General] goughymachine:
Yeah, I'm not that bright eh! Found the adb folder, transfered the stuff in there into the same folder as the img files and all good. Amazing, the things you can do when you use even a moderate amount of your mind ;)
[Nexus 5 General] aioen:
Successful

Mine was successful.

Backup your important files, if you have custom recovery make a backup.

Extracted the file including the image compressed file.

I have put all files on one folder, no subfolder. All extracted files are there.

Update the flash bat file's path to the full path of the folder.

Run flash bat file.

Problem Resolved

Got the same issue on my side. So, I tried freeing some memory usage by killing unwanted background process & then tried flashing.

Walla! It's worked ;)
[Nexus 5 General] leeyacine:
To get around the "missing system.img" error when trying to flash a factory image, you simply need to flash the .img files manually one by one. It's pretty easy.

First, Instead of leaving the update zip file in your working directory compressed, you need to unzip that package. Inside, there will be between four and six .img files. In addition to those files, the tgz package you initially downloaded contains the .img files for the bootloader and radio (where applicable, not all devices have this) - place those in this directory as well.

Get in the command line using this as your working directory, and get your device into fastboot mode, as we discuss in this post, like you normally would when flashing a factory image.

Once you're there and your device is connected, the process is exceptionally simple. Just enter these commands, one by one. For the bootloader and radio, the order does matter - the bootloader and radio must be flashed first, and the bootloader restarted after flashing them. Here are the steps:

Flash bootloader and radio (radio does not appear on all devices, if it's not in your tgz, you don't need it)

fastboot flash bootloader <bootloader file name here>.img

fastboot flash radio <radio file name here>.img

After flashing the bootloader/radio, you need to reboot the bootloader as shown below, don't skip this step!

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Now you can move on to the rest of the files

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

NEXUS 9 ONLY - flash this as well

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

If you want to wipe cache and user data (full wipe), flash these

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

Finally, just reboot your device, and Android should start up.

fastboot reboot

work 100%

Does anyone else have the issue that YouTube links in Chrome refuse to open in the YT app? They just open on the mobile YT site for me. And yes, I've tried clearing the standard app settings for both Chrome and YouTube. The phone simply doesn't ask me what to open such links with.

I had the same error at first, but for me just rebooting my PC worked. Then the flashing script got all the way through just fine. I think it might have something to do with how much memory you have available, so just killing a bunch of processes would probably work too.

[Nexus 5 General] czacha234:
I see how everybody complaining about battery life and to be honest I don't have any. Some of you need to keep it in mind that when you flash a new radio, it needs to settle for couple days. Other thing is when you flashed images probably you didn't have battery charged to 100% so that is making a difference as well. Even when some of you made a clean install, when others didn't, the update itself may not be without bugs.
