Thanks a lot, I appreciate it.

However, this is the one linked in the OP (meaning it is not flashable through recovery, only through fastboot).

I was just wondering where I can find the flashable-through-recovery version that had been mentioned.

In any case, my apologies to Scott for littering his thread by going OT

Updated my TWRP with their app. Updated bootloader with the file in the OP (thanks Scott). Downloaded the ROM. Was going to do a clean install but I thought I'd try a dirt flash from CleanROM 3.8 for sh!ts & giggles. Like people say the initial boot took a good 15 minutes (I do have lots of junk loaded). At times when it was loading/updating my apps I thought it froze but I left it alone. Once it finally booted up I unlocked, selected my Apex launcher and everything was there. All my folders and widgets were just as I left them but I am on Lollipop! After almost 24 hours everything is working great! I'm having fun learning my way around Lollipop, it's like having a new tablet.

Thanks again Scott for all your hard work!

Problem restoring backups..?

Trying to restore with TiBu and it won't restore. Just stays at 0%. I believe it's because my folders are coming up unwritable/read only. Tried mounting r/w with terminal emulator didn't help. ES File explorer "Root Explorer" option keeps failing. Been Googling about trying to fix, but no dice... Anyone else having trouble restoring? I'm running Elemental X 3.2 for the kernel if that makes any dif... Thanks.:confused:

Going back to 4.4.4

Quick question, Im having intermittent dropouts using bluetooth audio with 5.0 and I want to roll back to 4.4.4. I installed TWRP 2.8.1.0 and the new bootloader. Is it as simple as reflashing the stock rooted 4.4.4 via TWRP?

Thanks!

I dirty flashed this coming from stock rooted 4.4.4, and everything is working great, I had to manually reinstall a few apps that were not working even after clearing cache and defaults, thank you, this is the easiest way to get to lollipop if you have modified your stock system and cannot take ota.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ianjojo:
anyone find a way to disable the lockscreen completely in 5.0? i know it's a beautiful lock screen and all, and i know it has new functionality.. but i keep my n7 in a moleskine style case, so i'm not worried about it turning on in my bag. it seems as though once i turned on Slide to unlock in Security i have no option to turn it off again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Gareee:
Question: I know it say the first boot takes quite long... what do you see during the update? (I'm seeing the "firefly" swirling google spots.)

I'm just letting it sit for now, but wasn't sure if I was frozen bootlooping or not.

No idea what "pie patch" is...? Using the 4.0.4 boot.img provided in the OP.

Actually, about 5 minutes after I posted (even though I spent most of the morning trying to figure it out..) I got it fixed.

So to be clear, you got it all working with no special patch?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Gareee:
This might be ot, so apologies if it is in advance. I've got a few N7 2013 lollipop questions, and I'm not sure if they are default lollipop questions, or something wifi only tablet specific questions....

I read that the quick menu is a two fingered swipe down, or a second down swipe on the notification bar. For some reason, neither gets me the quick settings drop down. Do I have to turn quickmenu on in settings somewhere ?

Also, I don't have a lock screen... Does that have to also be turned on somewhere?

It looks like gallery was replaced with photos... Is this correct?

Lastly, when I activated my note 4, all my pictures and contacts auto synced... That doesn't look like the case here. Do I need to turn it on manually now ?

Everything else looks like business as usual, and appears to be working great. I'm just not sure if everything flashed properly, of if they've changed some things that I just need to get used to.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dang69:
In order,

no, yes, yes, yes, the latter.

These were questions I had to answer for my self as well. Gallery apk is widely available if you'd like to add it back.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Gareee:
Looks like I lost twrp, so I'm going back to reread the original posts, and see if there's something I missed. Notifications don't seem to work, and I've also lost my extended boot menu and twrp, as well as the lock screen. I was on the recommend twrp version and boot loader version.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] IIDr0iDJuNkiEII:
Yep. Just installed from the Play Store (usually I just flash the "update zip") and and pushed just the actual backup files into the freshly installed TiBu backup folder. When I pushed the folder and files TiBu kept saying the folder structure was "read only". Although, ES File Explorer "root explorer" still fails when I enable it...?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Ok, thanks for verifying. People seem to complain about root issues but not realize that its 99.99% not the ROMS fault.

I'm reflashing with wug's toolkit.. I'll report and changes I see.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] IIDr0iDJuNkiEII:
Gotcha. The only app so far with a root issue (if it's even that) is my ES File Explorer. Thanks for the Rom!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] the john:
I was going to look, but then got a random reboot. Oh, it's back now. I just checked -- touch Settings, then Security, Lock Screen, None. It worked fine for me. Maybe wipe cache if it doesn't work for you? Some setting may be stuck.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I have the same issue. Everything works fine except ES File Explorer. I hope they update it but on the same note I am using ROM Toolbox Pro and that has a nice root explorer and has no issues at all with Root.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Gareee:
Ok, I think wug's toolkit reflashed the rom again, and I have the same issue.. no notifications working, and I can't get to the quick settings with the notification tab second swipe or a double swipe, and no lockscreen.

It looks like twrp is installed, but the tablet can't see the boot partition, and I don't have an extended reboot menu.

Should I flash back to cm11, and then try again from there? (I'm also going to try to redownload the img in case I got a bad download and compare them.)

Its very odd.. the tablet boots fine, is unlocked and still has root, but its like parts of lollipop are disabled or not even installed.

Edit: MD5 checked out fine.

EDIT 2: Used wug's tool to reboot into twrp, and then reflash lollipop. This time it went through the intro setup, and its updating apps n such right now. I'll have to see if I can get into twrp though once its done.

Question, with twrp installed and lollipop, do you still see the usual extended reboot menu?

I have not seen one nor created one.

If you link to the Nexus 5 version it should be fairly easy to port.

IM personally not a big fan of Reboot Menu's as they tend to wear out your power button faster. There are some really great apps out that that can do it without the wear and tear on your buttons.

But that is just me. I am pretty anal about things.

I have stock installed (used wugfresh toolkit), wiped and rooted. Somehow I managed to disable Google Now voice detection and can't enable it again. I was thinking that maybe if I dirty flash this stock rooted ROM I would manage to make it work again.

So, my question is, if I flash it do I loose my apps and data? Can I flash it with TWRP or can only flash it using fastboot?

Thank you.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Gareee:
Yep, you can flash it with twrp fine and after wrestling some, I think I'm at 100% now as far as the update is concerned. No idea why the first flash didn't take properly, but the second one corrected the issues, and I just had to let google play reinstall all the apps, and then add the ones still missing from manual installation, and from the amazon app store.

I'm liking a lot that lollipop has to offer and most of my dislike is for the launcher which doesn't have many of the advanced launcher features I've become used to.

Nova is a good replacement, but there are some features (like multiple widget styles) they still don't support. I'm no huge fan of touchwiz, but I do really love a lot of the launcher features Samsung built into the new note 4 launcher.

Thanks much for bringing us into the 2014 holiday season with some sweet, sweet lollipop goodness!

It actually may be a legit problem... A quick google search of Play store error -505 shows on the Google Code a multitude of people reporting it with no solution or fix... Google accepted it as a valid issue.

https://code.google.com/p/android-developer-preview/issues/detail?id=1668

So what I would do is clear data and cache on Google play services and Play store (Force stop them first). Then reboot to recovery, and clear all cache's.

Then boot up and try again.

First of all, thank you very much Scott for creating such a lovely, stable ROM for our devices. I think you should update the OP, stating that there`s no need to use the batch file to flash the ROM, since the version you have in your website is totally flashable in recovery. My Flo has Philz v6 recovery, and installed your file without a hitch. Secondly, I would recommend backing up & formatting your Internal SD card prior to flashing, in order to avoid the issues regarding sdcard directories. I had to do a couple of TB backups before being able to restore anything, although some apps failed to restore.

I hope this helps.

Well I appreciate the feedback but I think you may have mis read the op. The ROM is indeed flashable with out any batch file. I did create a batch file for the updated BOOTLOADER. Some people will need help with that and have even chimed in to Thank.

As far as the storage issue. Meh, some people wont do it so I just let it be but I do agree its best practice to set up a new version of Android from scratch with clean SD card.
