Are you talking about dirty flashing CM12 over CM11S? Nope, can't do that. You can only dirty flash when upgrading the same ROM (to a newer build).

I'm pretty sure I've seen builds of the latest CM11S that you can download and flash, but I'm not sure if they support custom recoveries. Also, I think in the Toolkit for the OnePlus One there is an option to flash CM11S. I do not know how it will affect your device if you do it that way, but maybe consider that as an option.

Funny thing about this is I flashed it last night in TWRP and it would fail everytime I wiped first.
I saw someone else with the same issue and they dirty flashed it and it worked. I ended up trying to dirty flash it over (Not sure which ROM, I've tried them all) and it flashed fine. As soon as it booted I had some FC so I went back into TWRP and wiped and all has been fine.

Wrong section. Please read section titles at least.

I was getting random reboots when i went straight from oxygen to cm12s until i flashed the cm12 firmware: https://mega.co.nz/#!acIjQRYJ!3vVAuOCfwNStSl3AcrDnQJYs1IgchuHZU7QyutNYf7c
the OTA zip is apparently the full rom, so wipe data, system, and cache, then flash the cm12 firmware and then the cm12 OTA .. that should be it
I was wondering if anyone has used the ota updates on Blisspop need to know if I have to flash gapps or if it is like cyandelta updating for cm12 where it is all done for you

If you wipe and do a fresh install you will have to flash gapps. If you want to dirty flash it then it should keep the apps you already have installed. That is what I did. Hope this helps.

Hi
Stock 5.1.1 LMY48B
rooted with TWRP installed.
Can I flash to CM12.1 just by flashing the zip from TWRP ?
will I lose any data ? Do I need to worry about bootloader or radio versions ?
If I want to go back is it as simple as flashing my nandroid backup ?
Thanks

As I know going from rom to rom you need to make a factory reset.
That will remove all what is stored on /data
All apps, cache and dalvik cache.
All other data insidr /storage/sdcard will be on safe
As I know stock rom cannot be restored, but I just take this device before 1 day. I don't know for that, because on mine previous phone that was impossible

CM nightlies include a radio and bootloader so you don't have to worry about that.

Even if I never tried you should be able to restore a stock nandroid backup thru TWRP (you don't flash anything).
Thanks I'll try this at the weekend ?

No they don't.
But since he's upgraded to stock 5.1.x already, everything is up to date and there's nothing to worry about. Besides, Google's bootloaders usually have good forward- and backward-compatibility.

From Jira:
Me => CM (AOSP) is the only rom which has a bootloader and a radio into its zip. Why? Could you remove them?
I was on the newest bootloader HHz12f and a radio from KRT16M. Every time I flash CM nightlies I have to update my bootloader and flash an older radio. Very annoying.
Thank you.
CM Team => Sorry, we will continue to ship both. It saves us more headaches in the long run. Thanks for your understanding.
It's as simple as that.

Custom ROMs have a check into their update-script for the bootloader version. If you don't have the good one then you can't flash it.
Hello,
I have the Moto G with Cm 12.1 nightly, can I dirty flash CM12.1 stable build onto my nightly. Im asking because I want to keep my apps, call log and viber messages therefore wiping is not really an option.
Thanks you.
