[Q] Multirom

Hey guys! I have a Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013) and I am going to try to use multirom. My question is when you get multirom and you go to install it your only choices are Android 4.4, stock 4.4.1, 4.4.2, or Cm 11. Since I am running the PAC-MAN rom I am confused on which to choose. Any help would be great!

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.

[Q] Android 5.0 Lollipop Release?

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.

Yes, Android is like your desktop, you select the rom you want to flash and you flash it through a custom recovery. It doesn't matter what's already installed.

[Completed] Can I update my rooted Nexus 7 (2013)?

Hi I am making this new thread because I have recently rooted my Nexus 7 (2013) and everytime I turn on my tablet a notification pops up and says systeam update downloaded and if I press install it turns off my tablet and instead of installing it puts me in team win recovery project. I am wondering if there is any way to update my tablet without losing my root I also heard that 6.0.0 recently released so I am intersted in installing it Lastly if I install 6.0.0 and it slows my tablet's performance will I be able to downgrade my tablet and if yes how? I am running on Google Nexus 7 (2013) 5.1.1 lollipop.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
You need to flash a stock recovery, and probably unroot (or preserve root), to continue.
From your device's FAQ:
If all you do is root or unlock the bootloader then you will continue to receive OTA notifications from Google. Please be aware that root will be lost if you don't preserve it through your SU app.

Finally, there is a way to downgrade, but it seems the only surefire way is to downgrade with the stock fastboot images, and that takes you far back:
> Nexus 7 (2013) > Nexus 7 (2013) General > [GUIDE] Factory Image Posted-Return your Nexus 7 (2013) to stock
Can then build yourself back up with these OTA's, applied in order:
> Nexus 7 (2013) > Nexus 7 (2013) General > [REF] Nexus 7 (2013) Stock OTA URLs
Any questions, you can ask in any of these threads.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
