[Q] About dual boot - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so i have dual boot setup on my phone its runing a stock rom and francos kernel and i installed paranaoid android with multirom menager witch is also running francos kernel. and now the paranoid OTA is avalible so here is the question: can i let it flash trough the paranoid ota app or i need to download the ota update and flash it via TWRP in multirom options. im scared if i flash it trough the app it will mess up somthing on my stock rom.

Give out a go. It shouldn't mess up anything on your stock rom. You will have to reinstall franko after you flash

[Q]Stock ROM flash

Just a quick question guys.
1. the official ota updates from google only work with the stock rom right? does it matter if the phone is rooted or not? so if the phone is rooted, do the ota updates work?
2. if i want to get back from a rooted rom/cm7 rom/miui rum/... to a complete stock rom (with stock recovery, etc.) so total stock i just flash the official 2.3.6 version from google via recovery and everything is normal, right? so if i am back to the stock, the ota updates should work?
thanks guys
nobody?
Yes the OTA updates would work for a complete stock ROM even if you have rooted it, After the update you would have stock recovery and would lose root.

I think you need to be fully stock, ROM + Kernel. I might be wrong though.

Are you coming from stock kernel or were you using any other kernel before Thunderzap? Should not be the issue if you were on stock kernel before.
Try flashing Stock ROM once and then again flash ThunderZap kernel, also I hope you are flashing the zip as well from CWM after flashing boot.img.
right.you have to flash kernel's .Zip file via CWM..
Thanks...i went back to stock and then again to thunderzap...it worked

[Q] problem going from 4.3 to 4.4

I have tried a few different 4.4.x builds (kitkat) and all the flashes failed so i had to go back to a 4.3 build. Any idea what i am doing wrong? Never had a flash fail until i went to 4.4.x.
Thank you!

Update your recovery, old ones can't flash 4.4 roms.

Sorry man, but i am new to this stuff, bare with me. Recovery? Is that the program i use to flash ROMS and other things to my phone? I have the Team Win Recovery Project and i hate it. I read that i need to update this before i flash so i did and it still happened. I want to delete the Team Win Recovery Project and go back to Clockwork Mod (i think its called). Any idea how to do this?
Download flashify from play store and use it. It will let you download and flash either recovery. There's a variety of other apps and ways as well. In all honesty though, if you're using the latest version of twrp then you shouldn't have a problem flashing if you're trying the appropriate roms for your phone.

I'm pretty sure I've seen builds of the latest CM11S that you can download and flash, but I'm not sure if they support custom recoveries. Also, I think in the Toolkit for the OnePlus One there is an option to flash CM11S. I do not know how it will affect your device if you do it that way, but maybe consider that as an option.

Funny thing about this is I flashed it last night in TWRP and it would fail everytime I wiped first.
I saw someone else with the same issue and they dirty flashed it and it worked. I ended up trying to dirty flash it over (Not sure which ROM, I've tried them all) and it flashed fine. As soon as it booted I had some FC so I went back into TWRP and wiped and all has been fine.

Regarding Rooting Nexus 5 Running Lollipop

I have a confusion after going through various threads.
I have an unlocked bootloader and the device is running Lollipop and I would like to root it.
Should I use Nexus Root Toolkit or CF-Auto-Root.
I'm confused because somewhere I read that I need a custom Kernel, but I have stock Kernel.
I would no want to change my kernel as it will stop further OTA Updates which Google Rolls-Out, according to me. Please correct me on this too if I'm wrong.
I really need help. Thanks in advance
starting from stable supersu 2.35 modified kernel is NOT required.
stay away from auto tool
Flash latest SuperSU in recovery. Stock or custom doesn't matter.
