There is build 12 today....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36487791&postcount=3281
Important things:
- it should be sim free (not locked to network, I think...)
- your Explorer should have unlocked bootloader (this you do only once in lifetime)
- your Explorer (pco) should be rooted first, if it is not. (this you need to do once, custom roms come rooted usually)
- you need to install custom recovery if you didn't already (CWM or TWRP) (this you need to do once,but you can change it..)
When you have all this, then proceed per instruction above.

I would advice you to use build #11 rather than #12. Everything works on 11. 12 not tested yet.
To revert back you will have to do a nandroid backup first from recovery, if anything goes wrong while installing the rom simply go back to recovery and restore data!
Clear instructions given in posts on this site for all the steps needed.

9.1 is for ics roms, 10 & 10.1 are the jb ones but since not everything works fine on them yet, 9.1 is what you should go with, for now.
Hi XDA Guru`s,
I have tried to search for a proper guide which will tell me how to move from 4.1.x to 4.2.x.
There are many roms but all say they are without boot.img, some say xxxx kernel is needed etc.
So someone please put up steps that say how and what to do.
I am not asking you to put up links or upload the required files, zips, .img files here but aleast write it down so as to have a proper step by step instructions.
I am sure we all can search for files on google/xda provided we know what we need to look for.
Please take this request of a less mortal person and shed some light on me.
Thanks:crying:
In most of the 4.2.x ROM thread the installation process is mentioned.
1. You need to have custom recovery (cwm, twrp, cot etc) installed.
2. Put the ROM zip in the root of your SD card.
3. Go to recovery, take bkp of your current ROM. (Preventive measure, in case something goes wrong)
4. Clear data/cache/delvik cache
5. Go to mount option in cwm, format data/cache/system
6. Install the ROM by going to install from SD card option
7. ROM will boot loop as the boot.IMG for 4.1.x is not compatible with 4.2 ROM.
8. You need to flash the boot.IMG or kernel compatible with 4.2 to use the goodness of 4.2
9. That's it.
Hi,
I'm about to install CM11 (cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-hammerhead.zip) on my Nexus 5, but wanted to be sure I'm not about do something obviously stupid. I tried using the CM Installer, but it said 'firmware not supported'.
I have
- Minimal experience.
- LG Nexus 5, hammerhead
- unlocked and rooted. (it did a factory reset on unlocking)
- Fresh Android 5.1.1 with bootloader version HHZ12h.
- TWRP 2.8.7.1 (took a backup and copied the whole TWRP folder to my laptop), flashed manually using fastboot flash recovery twrp.img.
- Latest TWRP manager installed from Play Store.
- standalone adb and fastboot installed on my Windows 7 laptop. No SDK. 'adb devices' lists the phone when connected.
- cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-hammerhead.zip downloaded to my phone under /sdcard/.
- cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-hammerhead.zip is also present in same folder as adb.exe and fastboot.exe.
Questions are:
- Hope this build of CM is compatible with my Nexus 5 & the bootloader version and whatever else there might be compatibility issues.
- How should I do this: According to "official CM installation on Nexus 5 guide" on wiki.cyanogenmod.org it seems like I'm supposed to push the zip file to /sdcard/0, but /sdcard seems to be a link to /sdcard/emulated/legacy, which contains no folder named '0'. Should I create it and put it there?
If you're coming from a ROM with Android 4.2 or newer to CyanogenMod 10.1 or newer: adb push update.zip /sdcard/0/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
OR
Given that "cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-hammerhead.zip downloaded to my phone under /sdcard/", can I just: boot to recovery, click on Install, select the zip file and swipe to flash?
Finally a general query: Is there any reason I have to connect the phone to my laptop and run any adb, fastboot commands except to transfer the zip file from laptop to phone and to boot into bootloader or recovery with fastboot command? I already have TWRP running.
Thanks
Kashyap
Edit - before you flash, create a backup in twrp, including your efs, and copy it to your laptop for peace of mind.
I don't use cm, but that sounds like the right file. It doesn't matter which location the zip file is on your sdcard as far as I know, I think they've just said /sdcard/0 to make it easy to find from within twrp. Sounds to me like you've covered all your bases, nice to see someone manually flashing a nexus as a start. I'd go ahead and flash the zip, don't forget to factory reset if you're coming from stock. Also, you may want to find a gapps package if you haven't already. Since you seem to have taught yourself the right way, and your PC is setup for fastboot already, it should be easy to flash back to stock/restore under twrp. You don't even need adb to push files to your phone, you can just download them straight to the device. I generally only use my PC for fastboot flashing to stock,or transferring large amounts of data. Good luck, enjoy your nexus - first boot will generally take just long enough that you'll start wondering if its broken.
Thanks for the quick response.

Just curious why?
If i do a factory reset, will it not delete /sdcard/cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-hammerhead.zip? Do I just copy it from laptop to phone after reset and proceed to flashing? Or there is some way to not wipe 'sdcard' during factory reset?

I did do a TWRP backup, but selected what to backup in the TWRP manager app, there is no option called EFS. Anyway, I'm creating a new using the recovery UI, where there is a check box called EFS. Thanks!

Didn't know there was any other more automated option/way. , is there? Only thing I knew was the CM Installer, which said the firmware isn't supported. .

Yes, I was planning to, but taking it step at a time. .
I was planning to get gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip from cyanogenmod.org, but lets see. I'll probably post another question here asking which is the compatible one.
Factory reset just wipes data/cache/dalvik, it should leave your sdcard storage intact. Just out of interest,why cm11? KitKat is pretty long in the tooth, and I've always found aosp based ROMs to perform better than cm on nexus 5. The problem with having no gapps will be no access to play store/google account services, so you'll have to get apps from less trustworthy sources.
Worked
Thanks.
It worked fine. Though it was totally useless without either the play store or basic CM apps. Couple of notes:
- After wipe/factory-reset (from TWRP Recovery UI) /sdcard was untouched.
- Installed the ROM using TWRP Recovery UI -> Install -> Select the zip file from /sdcard and swipe.
- CM Installer on Windows 7 laptop worked fine once the CM was installed. But it downgraded the build from Nov to Aug-2014.
- Also CM Installer removed my TWRP and replaced it with CWM. Not happy.
So actually all that's needed is:
- Unlock the bootloader and root.
- Install TWRP Manager
- Try to use the TWRP Manager's "Install TWRP" to install the TWRP Custom Recovery. If that doesn't work then do it manually. Download twrp.img
- Install ADB and fastboot, you don't need the whole 1GB Android SDK. Just search for "ADB Fastboot without SDK".- Enable USB debug, connect the phone and ensure that 'adb.exe devices' prints a device.- fastboot flash recovery twrp.img- Download the ROM zip file you wanna install on the phone itself, no need to involve the laptop.
- Boot into recovery (e.g. using TWRP Manager -> Reboot options) and do what I did above.
Once you've installed Cyanogenmod, DO NOT use CM Installer. This is written in July'2015. May be things would improve in future.
Dear Friends,

THIS THERAD WILL NO LONGER BE UPDATED. TAKE A LOOK ON MY UNIFIED GUIDES/COLLECTION
CLEAN & DIRTY FLASH STOCK OR CUSTOM ROM
Note: These guides have mostly specific links for the S4 GT-I9505 Roms TWRP, Modems & Bootloaders but the steps are the same for all other S4 Models - You just need to find specific Roms,TWRP, Modems & Bootloaders for your device model. You can take a look at "Usefull Links" section below.
THIS IS A COMPLETE GUIDE FOR THE BEST CLEAN INSTALL OF A CUSTOM OR STOCK ROM FROM THE SCRATCH:
1*. Download a stock LOLLIPOP Rom from here or here (doesn't really matter which country you will choose, just be sure to download one of the latests firmwares-recommend is QK1 or PK2) and recommend is latest QK1Modem / QK1Bootloader or PK2Modem / PK2Bootloader. For the all others Modems/Bootloaders, you can find them here. Also Download a windows program Odin. Next, move all your personal data such pictures,music etc from your internal storage to your external sd card or to your pc.*
2*. If you are going to flash a Custom Rom, Download the Custom Rom you want (Recommened any JDC Roms of your preference), Pico or Nano Gapps (or Super Gapps if you have a custom gapps-confg file) be sure you have choosed Platform: ARM and the proper android version of the rom you are going to flash) [If the Rom you want to flash include Gapps, no need to download and flash any Gapps at all] and the latest Magisk for root. After you finished with downloads move your Custom Rom,Magisk,Gapps to one folder in ur external sdcard. *
3. Reboot to Download Mode(power button+vol.down+home button) and Flash TWRP 3.3.1-1 or JDC TWRP 3.3.1-0 via Odin. (You put the .tar file in AP)
4*. Reboot to TWRP Recovery (power button+vol.up+home button) go to Advanced-File Manager-external_sd and delete all folders on ur ext sd card (For example you should delete: Android, .android_secure, LOST.DIR, DCIM, etc) except your personal files/folders and the folder with your custom Rom/Magisk/Gapps you want to flash. *
5. Now still on TWRP select Wipe-Format Data and type yes-then go back and press-Advanced Wipe-Select Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache and then Swipe to Wipe.
6. Now Boot to Download Mode(power button+vol.down+home button) and Flash Stock LOLLIPOP Rom via Odin. (You put the file in AP section)
7*. When Stock Rom is Flashed go to Odin again,
Reboot your device to Download Mode, connect it to PC and put Modem(CP Section) Untick Auto Reboot in options, flash it and reboot your device to system by holding Power Button.
Then Reboot to Download Mode again, put the Bootloader(BL Section) and do the same steps as before.
Check what Modem and BL you have, if Modem and BL didn't changed do the same steps again.
If for some reason Odin fail to flash, try to change USB Port in your PC and don't move the cable during flash. Also if you have Odin and the files on an External hard drive, move Odin and all the files you want to flash to your C: drive.*
8. Now Reboot to Download Mode once again and Flash TWRP 3.3.1-1 or JDC TWRP 3.3.1-0 via Odin. (You put the .tar file in AP)
9. Reboot to TWRP(power button+vol.up+home button) and do the steps 4. and 5. Then flash your Custom Rom--->Magisk--->Pico or Nano Gapps (or Super Gapps if you have a custom gapps-confg file) (If Rom doesn't include).
10. Let the Rom boot and Install Magisk Manager manually if it's not preinstalled. Enjoy!
1*For Stock Rom to have your WiFi working you need to have the same version of Modem/BL as your Firmware. For example if you have PK2 Stock Rom then you need to have PK2 Modem/BL.
On Custom Roms doesn't matter. You can have any of the latest Modem/BL you want but recommend is QK1.
If you want to use KitKat Rom custom or Stock you should flash the proper KitKat Modem/Bootloader. It will not work if you have Lollipop.
2*Skip the step 2. if you are going to flash only Stock Rom.
4*Each app on your phone with the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission may create files or folders in ur sdcard. Most of these folders have once been created by one of these apps and many of them may be deleted with a few exceptions (e.g. Android, .data, .android_secure, these contain important system or app data like a game's downloaded content):
.android_secure: apps installed and then moved to sdcard
Android: app data/cache
data: app data
.estrongs: ES file manager
LOST.DIR: sort of trash folder (collects recovered files after phone crashes)
DCIM: phone gallery's photos and previews
OTA-update: Over The Air update service
ppy_cross: an unknown third-party app's data.
So I recommend to delete them so you can put your phone/sdcard in a clean state and is guaranteed to be able to re-create these folders.
7*If you wanted only to flash stock Rom you done on step 7. If you have any problem with Force Close Apps etc go to Settings->Accounts->Backup and reset->Factory data reset.
***** You can follow the same steps for other variants too but you need to find and choose the proper Firmware-Rom/Modem-Bootloader/TWRP for your variant. *****
THIS IS A COMPLETE GUIDE FOR CLEAN INSTALL OF A CUSTOM ROM BUT NOT FROM THE SCRATCH:
1. Download the custom Rom you want (Recommened any JDC Roms of your preference), Magisk for root solution and Pico or Nano Gapps (or Super Gapps if you have a custom gapps-confg file)[If the Rom you want to flash include Gapps, no need to download and flash any Gapps at all], be sure you have choosed Platform: ARM and the proper android version of the rom you are going to flash. Then move all those files to one folder in ur sdcard.
2*.Reboot to Download Mode(power button+vol.down+home button) and Flash TWRP 3.3.1-1 or JDC TWRP 3.3.0-0 via Odin. (You put the .tar file in AP)*
3.Reboot to TWRP Recovery (power button+vol.up+home button), go to Advanced-File Manager-external_sd and delete all folders on ur ext sd card (For example you should delete: Android, .android_secure, LOST.DIR, DCIM, etc) except your personal files/folders and the folder with your custom Rom/Magisk/Gapps you want to flash.
4. Now still on TWRP select Wipe-Format Data and type yes-then go back and press-Advanced Wipe-Select Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache and then Swipe to Wipe.
5. Flash your Custom Rom--->Magisk--->Gapps.
6. Let the Rom boot and Install Magisk Manager manually if it's not preinstalled. Enjoy!
2*Skip the step 2 if you already have TWRP Recovery installed.
THIS IS A COMPLETE GUIDE FOR DIRTY INSTALL OVER YOUR CUSTOM ROM:
1. [Optional]Make a full nandroid backup., just in case something goes wrong. You can use TWRP to do that. (TWRP-->Backup-->Select everything)
2. Uninstall all Substratum overlays if you have any installed.
3. Remove previous root solution with Magisk Unistaller and optional UnSU to ensure all root remnants are gone. (TWRP-->Flash the unistaller.)
4. Reboot to TWRP and Wipe system, cache and art / dalvik.
5. Flash the Rom-->Magisk-->Gapps.
6. Reboot and Enjoy!
***** I've skipped some explanations, because if you are going to dirty flash, you already know for example how to boot to TWRP . *****

Some explanation:
- For Stock Rom to have your WiFi working you need to have the same version of Modem/BL as your Firmware. For example if you have QK1 Stock Rom then you need to have QK1 Modem/BL.
- On Custom Roms doesn't matter. You can have any of the latest Modem/BL you want but recommend is the latest QK1 for GT-I9505 or the latest for your variant.
Great Tutorial, thanks @Retrial!
I wanted to ask if you could add some additional hints, e.g. like you did in response to a question of @InTheY2K here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78100797&postcount=2175
Then I realized, you've already done so. Thanks again!
But I've got some additional questions:
In step 4 you describe how to clean external sd. In step 5 you advise to clean internal storage. But if you wipe internal storage, all personal data (e.g. downloaded files, music etc) is lost. Wouldn't it be sufficient to delete the same folders as on external sd card and leave the personal folders?
In step 6 you flash an actual lollipop rom, in step 7 modem and bootloader. I thought an actual stock rom comes with modem and bootloader, so that a separate flash of modem and bootloader would not be neccessary. Am I wrong?
As this is a guide for clean flash, one could not expect to find information about a dirty flash . But I think, this is the best place to at least leave a hint to a place where this information can be found. I remember @Buff99 has one for his roms. @Buff99, @Retrial - wouldn't it be a good idea to add this information directly or as a link to this description?
Additional question: When reading the post with my beloved i9505 and XDA Labs I can't see the colour difference in the asterisks, they all look the same. Perhaps you can replace them with additional ones (meaning *, **, ***) or list your remarks with the corresponding number from your main list (meaning 1), 2) etc.)

We are doing the best clean install from the scratch so the internal storage must be wiped. You should move all your personal data in your sdcard before you wipe. I will add it as clue to the guide.
In step 6 you flash an actual lollipop rom, in step 7 modem and bootloader. I thought an actual stock rom comes with modem and bootloader, so that a separate flash of modem and bootloader would not be neccessary. Am I wrong?
That's not exactly true. If you have an old modem/bootloader and u flash for example PK2 firmware, you will not have same Modem/BL as ur firmware and then ur WiFi etc will not work. Flashing Stock Rom doesn't change them. You need to separate flash them.

Hmm yeah this guide is for clean flash, but probably I will say something for dirty flash too.

Maybe the xda app has some issues. I've added numbers near asterisks, I guess it can help. Thanks for feedback.

No, FQA1 should be the latest for your variant.
However, all the steps in my guide are the same for all variants. You just need to find the latest Firmware/Modem/Bootloader/TWRP for your variant.

Where can I find the latest FQA1 firmware other than SamMobile? The firmware from that website is only available for premium members.
EDIT: I couldn't find the FQA1 firmware in SamMobile. Where else can I find it?
