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!

thank you I'm coming from nexus s scene , for this I have asked for custom roms..excuse for the answer ^^
no problem. I can see how you might be lost. I am on my 3rd android device, and have only had 1 ROM at most for each one. Ive learned patience.
Its just that a lot of XDA n00bs have been coming in and expecting this ROM and that ROM,etc.
what you find is here is about all available.
oh, and questions go in Q&A.
tab plus 3g is an excellent device.

you gotta read and search my friend. Questions go in Q&A btw. XDA isn't going to spoon feed you, the info to get back to stock is all over the place. if you got to a custom rom, I'm confident you can flash odin back to stock
Moved to Q&A. I'm almost sure this might be covered somewhere else but at least have it in the correct forum
Cheers

This is your actual question. By now you may know Xda organizes those answers in the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket Android Development forum section. Look for the pushpin icons at the top of the list of threads. they are your "stickies", like an FAQ.
Remember OTA updates, when offered, do not mix with custom recoveries like CWM. You will need to flash a stock recovery.

read, read more, read the stickies, i read alot b4 i even attempted to flash, at least a few hundred posts and using the search button.
all problems and solutions have been posted, as u r a n00b all u have todo is invest time into reading alot of posts, because of ur post we all know u havent even bothered to read the stickies, espicially read the one w/n00b's in the title, thats y they r there. .
once u know what ur r doing and r stumped at a certain problem, believe me we can tell by how u post a question, post in the q&a forum
this post is just a copy paste from another post i wrote to a n00b
but anyway read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398 , its a post i started for ur situation, u would have found many by doing a simple search

How what? All you need is to unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery and then you could flash whatever ROM you want.

No there isn't a pure google based rom yet for the oneS . Your best option for now is the cyanogenmod 10 rom, which look very close to stock google.

To sum up what was mentioned...
No, there is not currently a pure, stock, AOSP rom for the 1S. Cyanogenmod 10 is the closest you can get, as it looks and operates the most like stock, however has many additional features (both visual and performance wise). Here is the link to download CM10 for our device http://get.cm/?device=ville .
Note: CM is releasing "nightlies" which means pretty much everyday an updated rom is released to fix or add features. As of right now, the rom works great, however there are some issues with the camera (video camera does not work properly, although there is a fix).
If you have not flashed a rom to your 1S yet, you will have to do quite a bit of research to get it done. This requires unlocking your bootloader through the HTCdev website, and downloading and installing several files before you can install a new rom. This guide can help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427 .
Hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions you may have.
BTW, yes Q&A would have been the correct section, but don't sweat it. Brandonrz is apparently disturbed in some manner.

Hey guys,
I have the latest official OTA Update for my HTC One S on Bell.
Version 1.84.666.9
Sense 4.0 instead of 4.1 tmobile version
Android 4.0.3
I do not have the possibility to change the Recent apps button.
I would like to stay on stock rom just to avoid flashing rom updates and deal with glitches.
Should I just wait it out for jellybean or should I change my CID to something else?
Help would be appreciated!
Thanks

What you should do is follow forum rules and post in the right section if you want your question answered. DEVELOPMENT FORUM IS NOT FOR Q&A. THAT'S WHAT THE Q&A SECTION IS FOR! (shocking i know )
Moved To Q&A
I really dont think any more needs to be said.
Realized it just after I posted it and I couldnt find my post anymore.
Sorry bout that!

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.
