When Android L is released, will there likely be a flashable zip file of stock L?
Not officially, but yes.

Do people not know how to use fastboot?
Think about that real quick. If they did, we wouldn't be right here right now. The Q+A section probably wouldn't even exist at all if people knew how to use fastboot.
Guys, please limit the L questions to the according L Q&A thread. Thanks

I want to flash a new rom to my xperia mini and i dont know which is the best to choose. Can someone suggest me one rom?
No. This thread will end up locked as discussion of "Which is best..." is frowned upon. Do lots of reading, then download a few ROMs and test them out.
And post your questions in the forum for your device, not in the general Q&A forum.

Si stick the question in the right forum then.
Only you can say what will be good on your device. This is a development forum not a make my phone cool forum. So try some out for yourself and learn something new

Hi to all! I wonder if someone can make a port of the android L preview of the nexus for our device: is it possible?
No need. Better wait a while for full open source version
BTW wrong section
It's will be useless, because in less one month we will have official by cm
Some people tried, but it wasn't possible. Our kernel relies too heavy on CAF, that's why it won't work. We would need a clean AOSP kernel for the developer preview, which is not worth the work because we will get L some time late next month hopefully.
Next time, take this question to the Q/A section. There's also a thread in general that was working on this, but it dropped due to a bad AOSP kernel source from OnePlus
thanks to everybody, and sorry for the wrong section!
I'm not a newbie, i just made confusion with tapatalk :silly:
I am currently on LXP13D.. when the final build becomes available...will i b able to flash it via nexus root toolkit over this?
Not sure about any toolkits, never used one.
And no, you won't be able to update the preview.
You can return to fully stock 4.4.4 and wait for the OTA. Or wait a day or so and flash stock Lollipop with fastboot, or flash a custom L rom.

You just asked this in the correct place where I answered then you duplicated it here in the wrong place. Most users get it wrong first haha
Stock answer:
Please do not create new Android "L" threads.* Until the release is official, we are using the dedicated sticky only.

Hello All,
I havent been on XDA for quite some time, I used to flash Cyanogen ROMs pretty much daily a few years ago (on my HTC Hero!).
I now have a Nexus 5 and am frustratingly waiting for an Android Lollipop OTA update which hasn't arrived yet! I am tempted to flash a 5.0 ROM, but wanted to ask if by doing so I will stop receiving future OTA updates from google i.e 5.1 whenever its released. Apologies if this is a dumb question... I've been out of the customisation game for a long time!
Thanks
Calico
wrong forum. you posted in development section. this belongs in q/a section. but yes, if you flash a custom rom you will not get otas.

Sorry, hopefully a mod can move it to the correct section
Ahh... that does complicate things. I don't have as much free time as I used to so I may just stick it out and wait for the official OTA.
Thanks for the reply!
Where can I get a flashable stock (by stock I mean factory image stock) rom for nexus 5?
I am asking this because I can't access my laptop right now and I need of a fresh rom as I think my current rom (cataclysm) is starting to act up.
Anyone????? (

Hello, this is herna from XDA Assist.
I´m currently Nexus 5 owner, and yes there is flashable stock Lollipop for your device.
In case to get any of those, you should have created this thread into Nexus 5 help one.
I will move this thread so you can get a link for the flashable zip, and please, if you have any other problem with Nexus 5, ask in the below link:
Nexus 5 Help
Anyway, you seems to be enough knowledged in terms of XDA since you got to flash the Cataclysm ROM, which is shared in our forums. So please, next time before creating a thread here, not only XDA Assist, also Nexus 5, try to search along Nexus 5 general section and you will find what you want there. Before asking,please investigate a little, it will save a lot of time to you, and also to us.
Cheers!
Maby this site can help you out!
You can find the images on the developer website from google.
I am new to the forum so cant link you to it.
Use google though with nexus 5 factory images.

Check dev sections. Flash a factory image. You pick.
Read the stickied threads on General. There's a really good one by Elluel.
