How hard is it to revert back to stock ? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't wait for the next OTA update but I want to go back to stock when its released.
I will be attempting my first root on my nexus 5 to use xposed.
Another question as well is xposed its own ROM ? Or do I have to have a ROM then add xposed ? I wanted to keep the stock stuff and just add xposed to tweak it.

Easy, if you have adb setup it takes about 5-10 minutes. Follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701. Look here for rooting the N5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...ide-nexus-5-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t2507905.

After that said upstairs.
It's that easy:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

If you already got the necessary files, it takes less than 5minutes to revert to stock. Or if you want lesser hassle wug's nexus root toolkit will do it automatically for you in just a few clicks.

How to toggle root and unroot without using computer after u have rooted your device

First download ota rootkeeper
Take a look at "OTA RootKeeper"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper
Second, you can see this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then press protect root
And you can see this
Unroot:
Press Temp.unroot(keep backup)
And you can see this
And that is unrooted
Root:
Press restore root
You can see this
And that is rooted
Enjoy

This looks useful. So will this protect root permissions through an official update? Do we just toggle off, run the update then toggle on?
The End.
Okay cool. I protected root. We will see when the update comes if it works. Thanks!
The End.

If you want to find Motorola to fix your phone
You need to unroot your device first
But u maybe don't have computer on the street and u can choose this way
U can place the root file after u get back ur fixed phone

Do you know if we are currently rooted and do the update, we will probably lose root access right? Also, is the new OTA update including kit kat?

You won't get OTA if rooted first of all. The update is not Kitkat, just patches to the original firmware.
idt we will get katkat officially, 8.0 might

Xposed Framework

I'm new to using xposed. What are the must have modules other than gravity box for the nexus 5?
Go to themes board. Plenty of info there

Hi,
Make your choice: [INDEX][XPOSED][2/08] Collection of XPOSED Modules...
And take a look here also: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540273.
App Ops is pretty useful for keeping Facebook out of your messages

xutilities, youtube adaway, gravity box,
all I have for you. I use xutilities so I can have a centered clock and date whereas gravity box only lets the clock be centered with no date.

If you use Tapatalk, CrappaLinks is required. Check that one out.
I also use GPSNotification, in addition to GravityBox.
