[Q] Android L Preview to "Stable" update, clarification needed

Hi guys!
Small question, or rather clarification needed.
With Android L Preview installed on device will I get all upcomming release updates or stable, final version will require me to perform clean install?

Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately this isn't what XDA Assist is for, our purpose is to point people who don't know where to post in the right direction. Enter "cm device requests" into Google and the first result should be a link to a page where you can request CM to build for your device.
Good luck!

firmware
i tried the link for the factory rom and it was a dead link said file was no longer there for download. to be honest since there is alot involved in flashing the phone with the most current firmware available i am going to just pass and just keep what the phone currently has firmware wise. i do not want to by mistake brick the phone. all i really want to do is have on hand a copy of the most current firmware for my phone so in the event i need to re-flash it i can. i have tried seeking the firmware file for the phone but keep hitting dead links. thank you for your time. if u do have a live link so i can download a up to date firmware for the phone i could use that. thank you

Hello,
I have a rooted Nexus 6 running Android 5.1.1 with CyanogenMod 12.1 on a nightlies build. I really want to get multi-window like in the Note 4, but so far I've seen that I need Xposed framework to do so. Is there another way to do this, or is there a way to install Xposed with CyanogenMod?
Best,

[Completed] Install CyanogenMod in lenovo A3500-HV

I own a Lenovo A3500 -HV. I have been using it for an year now and it is running KitKat(4.4.2). There is no sign of a newer OS coming to this tab so I have decided to install a new ROM. I decided to go with CynanogenMod but the problem is my device is not listed in the supported devices directory.
I think my device has the minimum requirements to run the OS.
I would like to know if it will be better to install the CyanogenMod or just leave it with kitkat or maybe install some other mods that my tab can support?
