I have a LG Nexus 5 with Lollipop 5.1, unlocked and unrooted. Is there an easy way to install CyanogenMod to it? I'm new to tinkering with my phone so don't have much knowledge or experience with this.

Good Luck!
Yes get the cm download app for phones. It finds the latest version and downloads it if you want. I normally have a stock rom and cm so I can switch

Sticky threads are available to learn how to flash a custom rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...urce-guides-info-threads-linked-read-t2784527
Go to CyanogenMod download center to download a nightly:
• hammerhead: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=hammerhead
OR
• hammerheadcaf: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=hammerheadcaf
Check daily until we see a build named cm-12.1xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Dear XDA members.
I've looked all over XDA for a rooted 5.0.1 firmware but I couldn't find it anywhere, even though roots for 5.0.2 and 5.1.x are abundantly available.
I have a Sony Xperia Z3 - D6603 - Unlocked Bootloader. I am a NOOB when it comes to development, yet I am very familiar with flashing FTFs using Flashtools, I am also familiar with ADB commands, accessing and using different recoveries, and installing modified ROMS.
I would like you to assist me in one topic or the other:
1- Either, guide me to the firmware number of the Z3 5.0.1 or 5.0 FTF and teach me how to prepare it to be pre-rooted with the latest SuperSU, so I would prepare the modified stock firmware my self and flash-it on my phone.
2- Or, if possible or already available and I couldn't find it, please link me to a Z3 D6603 5.0 or 5.0.1 pre-rooted zip so I could flash it.
I am very grateful for your assistance
PS: I posted this before in XDA assist, it had 46 views but no replies. I am hoping that here it would be more interesting to you. I am not sure whether I should post this as an XDA: DEVDB since I am not starting a development project. If this post is wrongly placed, please notify me.

AFAIK there is no 5.0.1 android for the z3.
You can flash either kitkat or 5.0.2 lollipop.
Why do you want 5.0.1 anyways, I don't see a reason.
This is the wrong section for questions/requests BTW. Use q/a section.

Thank you for your response.
I need a 5.0.1 version to run a service that is only compatible up to 5.0.1.
Thank you for the assistance, and sorry for posting in the wrong place. I posted in the Q/A section and I didn't get any answers.
I will request a Mod to remove the post from here.
Best!

Build your own ROM then for example, or look if there is one with that. Stock is not available with that version AFAIK, they skipped it.

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
A quick search for that app leads me to believe that it takes advantage of LP's power saving features built into the firmware. Not exactly fair to assume those features would be in the KitKat version (99% sure they won't). Sorry.
But for porting "down" other apps, you may want to post your questions here:
> App Development Forums > Coding Discussion, Q&A, and Educational Resources > Java for Android App Development
It doesn't look easy, as when you set up a new app in Eclipse, one of the first things it asks is how far back the compatibility should go. The further back, the fewer features will be available. So some (if not many/all) apps will require a complete rewrite.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
Hi! I have the BLU Energy X 2 running Lollipop 5.1. My status bar, among other things, has been skinned/changed through SystemUI.apk. By decompiling the apk and making changes, could it be possible to get a more stock Android look?
Thanks

This is a challenge regarding the "Symphony Xplorer V50" but, you first have to have proper root working.
Assuming that you might not be rooted. The following link may be helpful for you.
https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-symphony-v50/
Assuming that you are rooted. The following link has the XPosed Installer for KitKat devices.
http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Just to let you know that there's no separate/flashable XPosed Framework for the KitKat devices. Those Android versions never had a separate file to flash but, the XPosed Installer app performed this as a part of its function.
Scroll down to the "de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v33_36570c.apk" because that was the app that's specific for the KitKat as stated on that page "2.7 experimental1" "Note that this only works with root access on Android 4.0.3 up to Android 4.4.".
The following thread is specific to this XPosed Installer app.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-2-7-experimental-version-feedback-t2788124
That's the best that I can help you with because I'm not familiar with your device on top of my not using KitKat in a zillion years LOL!
I wish you the best of luck!
