Has anyone extracted the factory Recovery for 4.4.1 KOT49E?
Factory images are not yet available from Google and I'm hoping someone has the factory recovery image available.

Nexus 5, 4.4.2, stock-rom, rooted.
It was using Franco kernel r51.
I used the Franco Kernel Updater to restore the stock kernel 4.4.2.
It went boot-looping ...
I went to Recovery mode, reset to factory ...
Finished, reboot now
It was still boot-looping ...
I reset to factory once again, and it is still boot-looping ...
Anyone can help?
Thanks.

Thanks, fixed by flashing 4.4.3 image using WugFresh
Don't use Toolkits for that.

Dear friends,
Today I bought a used nexus 5 for a little money. The only problem with it is that it wont boot anything because the seller wiped all data (inc. OS) which he thought was a factory reset. He was really stressed this happened and sold me the phone for even less. The only thing he did in the past was install a recovery mode.
My question:
How can I restore the phone to stock ROM? Currently there is no ROM installed. Everything is wiped.
What I already did:
- Download the 4.4.3 (KTU84M) version.
Use fastboot and flash factory image.
Refer sticky for guide.

Hey,
Thanks for the answer. I did these steps. Fastbooted hammerhead-ktu84m and everything works. According to devs.google I should relock bootloader. Is it neccesary?

I have the download link (the official .zip) for the update from google's servers but don't have access to adb. Can I download the update myself and then just boot into recovery or something and load it from there?

You can manually flash the factory image files with fastboot. If you don't have fastboot Google 15 second adb install xda, try not to use the dev host download site. It's bad.

Doesn't flashing a factory image erase data? I'm trying to apply the OTA update without factory resetting my phone.

Don't flash the userdata.img and it won't wipe your device. If you're going from 5.0 to 5.0.1 you should get by with just flashing the radio, boot, and system images. But as always, backup first off the device just in case.

I successfully used the adb sideload method last night. I was just curious if there was a way to apply the update without needing adb, like I have on other phones use CWM to apply an update from zip. Thanks for the help!
Hi
I'm currently running 5.0.1 stock rooted with TWRP recovery.
I'd like to downgrade to 4.4.4 to test maps and GPS.
Currently maps has me approx 15+ mtrs away and the orientation is wrong with me pointing in the wrong direction.
Do I simply need to download the image from Google and then clear system and cache, then flash the 4.4.4 system, cache and boot images ?
Will I need to downgrade the boot loader or radio ?
Thanks

If you flash the complete 4.4.4 image everything (bootloader, radio and the system image) will be flashed and you`re phone will be wiped, so backup everything first before the flash. Just type in cmd: flash-all.

Try a different radio modem. There were posts a while ago saying people had gps issues on anything newer than the 4.4.2 radio

I currently have twrp installed but I have been looking for the stock m8 recovery for marshmallow but can't seem to find it. Just wanting it to do a factory reset with it cause I read on here somewhere that it cleans your system deeper then twrp. Thanks.

I couldn't find it either. What I ended up doing was making a NAND via TWRP, then flashing the lollipop recovery, factory reset, then flash TWRP and restore.
