Unable to install 5.0 on rooted N5

Hi guys ,
I have a rooted nexus 5 running on original stock rom with clockwork recovery installed. I have been getting pop ups to download Andriod 5.0 for last 10 days , Every time I download it , it takes me to recovery and than gives me a message "unable to open the package etc." and cancels the install.
I have tried clearing up the cache , did factory reset , same result everytime.
Any suggestions what can i do ?

You need to be 100% stock (including recovery) to accept the OTA. Restore your phone to full stock and try again.

How do I do that ?
This is wifey's phone , if she looses her data 1 more time than I m dead.

Flash the newest factory image in fastboot, just dont flash the userdata image.

So If I just download 5.0.1 (LRX22C) from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and flash it via Fastboot , It will take phone back to Factory state and root will be lost ?

Ya root will be lost. Just unzip that image fully. Then flash everything but userdata individually. She wont lose her data or setup. Then fastboot flash twrp. Boot into twrp and install supersu. Good to go.

Ya itll be on there. Also you dont need to flash the bootloader either, being that its the same as the 5.0 one.

If its on 4.4 you should do a clean install as its a big upgrade. To save her data, flash the 4.4 recovery, and boot images. That should bring you back to stock so you can just take the ota.
Thatll work as long as you haven't made any further modifications.

Lol. I thought he was already on 5.0. Glad i caught him in time. I know how pissed my wife gets when I mod or flash stuff to her phone and she doesn't like the outcome, or the version is buggy, or she has to re setup her stuff. Glad I can help other avoid that

OK. So download 4.4.4 and unzip and flash only recovery and boot images via fastboot ( boot images would be files ending with .img , i.e. more than 1 file ?

Flash "boot.img" its only one file. Then flash "recovery. img" also one file. So two files total.

While connected to system it cannot detect my device

Have you tried to search for ROMs for your phone model?
Google or Search at www.needrom.com

Take a note....
Do you included your kernel in cwm (i mean porting cwm)??
you have to flash stock recovery or working cwm recovery optionally(may be) boot.img
1. If u found a stock rom,confirm that the rom is working
2. Don't touch preloader coz it will make things worse...
3. use latest version of SP flash tool.
4. if u can't find a stock rom find a clone of your phone and use that (Kernal may be upgraded or downgraded)
5. Post a request of a boot.img and recovery.img

Sorry man , baseband errors normally result in no mobile network and ability to make phone calls :/. When I flashed marshmallow on my phone , it said not found next to baseband. You may want to fully flash MM then when it gets to bootloader unlocked screen , wait a few minutes. If it does nothing, try flashing twrp recovery and flashing a lollipop custom rom.

Mate , no one noticed that you are trying to flash the ota zip in recovery. you are not meant to do that. Flash it using Fastboot. Go download Motorola device manager to get the right drivers, and get minimal adb and fastboot, when you have done that, come back here !

Try using mfastboot instead of fastboot, go with 6.0 firmware, make sure you flash all sparsechunks included. Baseband should be restored

Please help,lost everything

I rooted my device which is a huawei p8 max with the kingroot apk and i installed the twrp recovery (the MATE S TWRP) which still works.
Unfortunately i deleted EVERYTHING in my p8 max.. there are NO DATA and NO SYSTEM files.
There's only the mate s recovery that works.
I tried to flash a zip with the stock firmware inside but the recovery showed me "unable to mount '\system' " and "Zip file is corrupt!" in red.
In addiction, my pc can't even recognize my p8 max, but it shows a connected device called "CRR - L09" that is my phone.
It is shown as an MTP device because I DIDN'T ENABLE THE USB DEBUGGING on my phone.
Is has a folder "internal storage" in which i put my zip with the stock firmware to flash(i said it didn't work) and other 2 sub-folders that are "TWRP" and "obb". Just these two.
My HiSuite(the huawei tool) can't recognize of course my device
__________________________________________________ ___
bootloader unlocked
twrp installed and working
root
my pc sees just an mtp device (CRR - L09)
device EMPTY with just an internal storage with other 2 folders (twrp,obb)

I'M SO FRUSTRATED, IF IT'S POSSIBLE I'D LIKE TO HAVE MY PHONE BACK PLEASE
