I am trying to unroot my Nexus 5. I need to change bootloader from HHZ11k to HHZ11d. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Why? How are you trying to unroot?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
There's no need to change the bootloader to unroot the device.
If you have to for some other reason , then download the 4.4 factory image from google(I believe that's the one which had the old bootloader? ) and flash the bootloader img file via fastboot.

Hi guys, here it is download link of Nexus 7 WI-FI (grouper) bootloader v4.23 (stock one shipped with just released android 4.3 JWR66V)
It's not flashable via custom recovery, though.
Flashable version soon (if anyone is faster than me, PM me and I'll post it here :good
for short, fastboot command for flashing:
in fastboot mode, from computer terminal or prompt:
fastboot flash bootloader NAME_OF_THE_FILE.img
complete flashing guide (from adb setup to the end here - thanks to azoller1)
(Download)

SHA-1 7B28B45A035EFB9AAD9E61AD09B1906EB5508721
(I don't take any responsibility about procedure, etc. You know the story, bootloader is from Google's factory image)
Thanks, is working well. For People who asks: You can still use 4.2.2- Roms with this Bootloader!
Is there a need this, or some advantage to it?

I tried to flash back to stock 4.3 earlier and it wouldn't let me because my bootloader was still on 4.18
Also, note the fact that the Google factory images website has the JWR66Y stock image instead of the JWR66V that is found here. For me when I was trying to flash the new bootloader earlier today, the version from the JWR66Y version gave me a 'Signature mismatch' error while the version found here did not.
Does anyone have a flashable ZIP of this bootloader to hand??
Thanks in advance

I flashed elix rom to experiment one day this week out of boredom, was just seeing what else is out there - was on slimkat and before cyanogenmon -
Then I wanted to go back to cyanogenmod but when I tried to flash, somehow unknown to me my bootloader seemed to have rolled back....typically I had deleted the zip containing the bootloader about three days previous.
ANYWAY - I just found it again and if anyone else should need it, here is the link to the forum that has the bootloader in it

I root my nexus with 4.4.3 version , after a week I decided to unroot my nexus with "toolkit".
I decides Instead the program will download the file for me, I will download the file from google's site :
after I download the file I click on:
after that I click "ok" to start unroot my nexus .
and after all this I lock my bootloader
so after that I will can to install the updates I will get like version "L"? ?
If you're fully stock then yes.
Please try to avoid using toolkits. Manual process is better.
FYI, can still get updates if rooted.

I have an unlocked and rooted Nexus 5 on 4.4.4 KTU84P running a stock image that was updated OTA.
I've been getting the OTA update all day but it keeps failing to install. The error says there is an issue with the file in the /cache/ folder. I've been able to update OTA in the past until this version.
I wouldn't mind just using Nexus Root Toolkit to update but to do that don't I have to unroot and wipe the device? I just want to update without wiping the device.
Is it possible?

Are you on the stock recovery or do you have a custom recovery. You must be on stock

Custom. TWRP I believe. Whatever the one the Nexus Toolkit uses.

So there's absolutely no other way of doing this besides removing my custom recovery?

Then why was I able to update to 4.3 and 4.4 both while TWRP was installed? I had 0 problems.

5.0 is different. Trust me on this

There is an option on the Toolkit to revert the recovery back to stock. Will that be enough to install the update or do I have to unroot as well?

The tool kit will probably return you to stock and wipe your device. Skip the tool kit. Just flash the stock recovery in fastboot. If you don't know how see @rootSU's sticky in the general forum

You need to flash the new bootloader first

I'm trying to retain my Root, User Data, and CWM Recovery. Can I simply sideload the system.img? Basically create a zip containing only the system.img then use CWM's sideload?
