Double download of Android 5 OTA possible? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I think I might have downloaded or installed android 5 twice OTA. Because my WiFi connection got messed up right in the initial stage of the download. So, I might have agreed twice to download. Then I got 2 download windows and accept windows ruining. How to know if it was downloaded twice and how to delete one.

Upgrading to windows 8 from release preview

I installed the release preview Windows 8 over windows 7. With that will I have to buy the full version of Windows 8 Pro or will I be able to buy the $40 upgrade? If I revert back to windows 7 I'd have to do a full wipe and I don't want to do that.

Yes - very bad form.
Firstly it's contrary to the rules of XDA.
Secondly XDA is a Mobile Phone development site, not a Micro****e support site.
Thirdly, if you really can't use Google or find a more appropriate forum for your questions then at least stick it in the right thread in Off-Topic.

[Completed] Installing Android 4.4 on Samsung Wave S8500 problem

Hey guys, I'm new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the right section.
I have been following steps posted in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2609560
I managed to reach point number 8, but when I try to restart my phone, it won't show any "FOTA set of red messages" neither Badadroid logo, just regular Bada 2 gets succesfully loaded. I have no idea what am I doing wrong.
So far I have been trying 2 Roms:
http://www.file-upload.net/download-9315108/cm-11-20140802-wave-poweroff.zip.html
https://yadi.sk/d/C1iIRo1tSVyVF
With both of them I copied related zImage to phone root directory and the whole zip to root directory of SD card.
Then I flashed BOOTFILES and FOTA using Multiloader, both succesfully (using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732287)
https://yadi.sk/d/Yz7_dfpkC6TkC
https://yadi.sk/d/W4RjnjQRC6TfP
It still doesn't work, when I restart, just regular Bada loads. What should I do? Please help me, I am kind of new with this. Thank you in advance!
EDIT: OK, so I figured out that you have to hold END CALL + VOLUME UP to reach CWM. According to tutorial Badadroid logo should remain on the screen for like 5 minutes, but it's just a matter of second till I reach CWM. I installed Rom succesfully from ZIP, but when I restart the phone, it's Bada again :/

Hi,
You've provided me with all the links you need, so asking your questions in the relevant threads you need help with would be what to do now.

TY for reply, I didn't know that. I would like to ask in the specific thread, but I'm not allowed to since I am one of "New members (those with fewer than 10 posts)". :/
The way it works now... If you post in a development section, an automatic Q&A thread is created in the Q&A section.
So you can post there. ?
Thank you. Thread closed.

I tried creating a thread for this if you search for threads created by me. It got locked because apparently letting everyone search through thousands of L posts for the important information they need is a better option

Well until L is final, we use the stickies. L is subject to change and all these threads become irrelevant so follow what the forum admins want.
Searching a single thread is no different to searching a forum. Search works just as well in both scenarios. So there really is no need to flood everyone else with the repeated same L questions

What you are trying to achieve with this thread is admirable, but the very first response gives an idea of the fundamental problem - people refuse to read/educate themselves.
Your thread clearly states its purpose and intentions, and gets ignored straight away. The second query is totally unrelated too and has already taken this off topic
