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.

This is a stock 4.1.2 JZO54K rom (Google Apps included) to flash in recovery. I used the Aroma installer (thx jamesst20) to let you chose if you prefer it rooted or not.

Download Odexed ROM
Download Deodexed Rom there are some problems, odexed version recommended
New img of 4.1.2 bootloader v3.41, flash it using fastboot: http://download.andreavenditti.com//grouper/bootloader/bootloader-grouper-3.41.img
If you have troubles entering in recovery, reflash using fastboot the old 3.34 version: http://download.andreavenditti.com//grouper/bootloader/bootloader-grouper-3.34.img

I just flashed this on top of my stock rooted JRO03S ROM and wiped caches. I made a nandroid, just to be on the safe side, but it booted right up without issue.
I'd say flash it after making some sort of backup, and if you have problems, full wipe.

Thats what Im doing right now. If all fails, I'll just reflash stock and flash the update on top.
Flashed it worked fine for me installing all my apps as we speak

I flashed this, worked fine, but now I have lost root and can't boot into recovery.
I have tried re-rooting again with the toolkit but it doesn't seem to work as it always boots back to system without doing anything.
The state seems to be still unlocked though.
Please advise
All working fine over here Flashed on top of rooted/unlocked stock 4.1.1 with wiping Cache after flashing.
Flashed the new bootloader (which fixed the recovery issue for me), then wiped cache and flashed the new ROM dirty over rooted 4.1.1. Worked fine. Thanks!
PS. Aroma installer is pretty cool. First time I've used it.

Okay, first, make sure you have whatever you need backed up.
Second, wipe everything except SD card ( dalvik, cache, system, boot, data)
Third, reflash the ROM, and report back if your problem persists.

You can't dirty flash a 4.3 rom over a 4.2 rom like you did since the gapps are not compatible. It causes all sort of force close like you have. Do as Setting.Out said and make sure you download the correct gapps for 4.3. Flash them after you flash your rom.
try the rom at my singature

4.3应该是没有官方的，另外 I9023XXI1指的是基带版本，应该跟刷那个版本系统没什么关系，4.3除了cm以外没发现有哪个bug少的
the google official didnot release andorid 4.3 for android,you can download official image from here(just google search nexus factory image,then open first links and find out the image adapt you phone),using fastboot flash you phone :victory:

Are you wiping data when you flash the rom?
If you don't have any important stuff on your phone, I would just flash the factory images and start over with the rom process.

When you flash the ROM it also flashes the kernel that comes with it.
So if you are using Mahdi ROM then everything is ok but if you try a different ROM you get the error constantly?
using the ClockworkMod recovery.
If you receive issues on flashing, double check your download. If nothing, I suggest using the ClockworkMod recovery.

The type of recovery you use will have no bearing on it, hundreds of people on here use twrp and cwm.
All I can suggest and it was suggested before is to wipe your phone completely and start over again. Something went wrong, clearly.
I have an unlocked and rooted Nexus 5 on 4.4.4 KTU84P running a stock image that was updated OTA.
I've been getting the OTA update all day but it keeps failing to install. The error says there is an issue with the file in the /cache/ folder. I've been able to update OTA in the past until this version.
I wouldn't mind just using Nexus Root Toolkit to update but to do that don't I have to unroot and wipe the device? I just want to update without wiping the device.
Is it possible?

The tool kit will probably return you to stock and wipe your device. Skip the tool kit. Just flash the stock recovery in fastboot. If you don't know how see @rootSU's sticky in the general forum

Same here... Mine is also only rooted and unlocked (everything is stock) but when update started in recovery error appears...
I tried only to see what it looks like, but because xposed and ART don't like each other i'll stay on KK
I have a confusion after going through various threads.
I have an unlocked bootloader and the device is running Lollipop and I would like to root it.
Should I use Nexus Root Toolkit or CF-Auto-Root.
I'm confused because somewhere I read that I need a custom Kernel, but I have stock Kernel.
I would no want to change my kernel as it will stop further OTA Updates which Google Rolls-Out, according to me. Please correct me on this too if I'm wrong.
I really need help. Thanks in advance
starting from stable supersu 2.35 modified kernel is NOT required.
stay away from auto tool
