[Q] Android 5.0 Lollipop Release? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I wanted to know, if Google posted yesterday release version of Lollipop https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/+/lollipop-release is it possible now to flash Nexus 5 with the same image which will be sent OTA? Are there any of completely original images at the moment, without derivatives and ports from other devices/versions?
Thank you.

Question about Roms, Android Versions, and my GT-N8013

Okay, I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013. I have rooted the tablet successfully and installed Omnirom on it, except Omnirom cam with Android 4.4.4 when my device's stock version is Android 4.1.2. After downloading Omnirom I would like to switch to Paranoid Android so I can access the pie feature on my tablet instead of the omnibox.
However, being very new at this, could I use a Paranoid Android Tablet Rom based on Android 4.4.4 instead of the standard 4.1.2? I don't want to go back to 4.1.2, it wasn't fun. I would like to keep Android 4.4.4 and have the updated version of Paranoid Android for my Galaxy Note 10.1 Is this possible?

your question seems odd for some reason im not understanding i guess.
so, you flashed a 4.4.4 rom onto your device and you want to know if you can flash another 4.4.4 rom onto your device that is made for your device correct?
if that is accurate^^, then yes, you can just flash the new rom.
the only possible problem i could see is, if there is an official update to kitkat for your device? if no then there will be no issue.
if there is an official kk for your device, say so and i will elaborate on the possible issues.

[Completed] [Q] Nexus 7 Android L Update isnt availabel

The Update(Android L 5.0) is still not available for my nexus 7(2012 Wifi) ,i thougt that the update is rolled out completely.My Device is not rooted.(I live in Germany)(sry grammer isnt the best)
Hi,
Here is a thread on the subject, you can join the discussion here too,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/general/updated-eta-android-5-0-t2927240
If you're on stock rom and Stock recovery and haven't altered the system partition, you should get and be able to install the Lollipop ota. But it's rolled out in stages, some Nexus 5 owners are still waiting, and it began before the 2012 N7.....so you'll need to be patient.
Good luck !

Is there and update for Tronfy MXIV to Android Lollipop? Currently running 4.4.2

Update Tronfy MXIV to Android Lollipop?
I have a Tronfy MXIV TV box that I got from TinyDeals less than 2 months ago which runs Android 4.4.2. A few weeks ago they started selling an updated version with the name Telos with basically the same specs but comes with Android Lollipop pre-installed. Anyone know if its possible to update mine to Lollipop, either with the Telos firmware or a custom ROM?

the same story, now the mx4 telos is about $90, while my MX4 cost me more than 110 dollars, I found this link http://www.tinydealcouponcode.com/2015/08/21/android-lollipop-5-1%EF%BC%9Atronfy-tv-box-firmware-update-from-tinydeal-tech-support/ , use the official firmware and enjoy the best of Android 5.1.
Hi Jackiefire. I'm confused because the link on the TinyDeal website is for the update that has been on Tronfy's website since May. It is build number 202k, which is what my MXIV is running. It is Android 4.4.2, not 5.1 Lollipop. Is there something I'm missing?

The only real difference between them both is android 5 & the gibabit Ethernet.
The tronfy you have should soon be upgrade to android 5 so I would not worry too much about it + there are some bugs on the lollipop rom so I would advise you to stick with kitkat for now
