So I am about to installed the de-odex 4.4 kitkat on my nexus 2013. I cant remember how this works, do I use the bootloader first and THEN flash my rom on there? or do i flash first, apply bootloader, and then apply super user?

I would assume you will find something here or in other guides?

If you've received the OTA update only, please comment.

Yes it does. You will need to re-root then re-flash CWM
And if I'm just using the stock ROM, just rooted?

It will still remove root, so you just need to re-root afterwards. You won't lose any data though as it doesn't re-lock fastboot or anything. Literally took 2 minutes.
Is there a guide to rerooting without unlocking fastboot, as I assume this differs from the original rooting process for this phone using the modified img and bat file?

Unfortunately no, you'll need the bootloader unlocked for the superboot method until there is a better root solution available

What I meant is that this OTA does not lock the bootloader. The bootloader is therefore unlocked. All I'm asking for is a step-by-step guide to rerooting from that state, with it unlocked.
Hmm this is weird. I was prompted to install the OTA fix. I just have the stock Google ROM, rooted and that's it. It rebooted, showed the wireframe hexagon animation for a second, and went to an android with a /!\ exclamation mark. I had to remove the battery.
Now I can't update and it has disappeared from the update page in phone settings. Check for update doesn't bring it back.
Is there a place to download the update patch?
Same thing happened to mine. I just found a zip of the update here and flashed it via CWM. You will still need to re-root and re-flash CWM.

And here it is! Just rename to update.zip and place in the SD Card root folder, then reboot into recovery and install update.zip:

Hi guys, i need to learn something.
I use Bigxie [ROM] [OTA] [GSM] Android 4.2.2 JDQ39: Rooted Busybox Deodexed
and want to update 4.3 with similar;
Fireb33 [ROM] [JB] [JWR66Y] Galaxy Nexus 4.3 stock (deodexed, rooted, busybox)
So do I need to vipe anything or just download and flash via Twrp?
And better for me is: can i just download an "update.zip" (for same root-busybox-deodexed stock rom) instead a huge rom file?
Will i lose any data with any way?
Hello all,
Just did an OTA update to JRO03O after unrooting and relocking my phone. Then went to Root Toolkit 1.5.3 to root and unlock the new ROM but the only option there was JRO03H to select for my Verizon phone. Can I select this "H" version (or the last choice, which is MYSID-TORO;Android*.*) to root and unlock it? Or must I wait for my specific build to appear?
Do you use fastboot? I avoid toolkits like the plague because you learn nothing from them. Try using fastboot to flash a custom recovery(CWM or TWRP), then just flash the latest superuser zip from clockworkmod.
Edit: don't quote me though, the only time I've ever been stock is the first 30 minutes owning my Gnex. I just bypass the rooting process by flashing a custom ROM.

hmm never really used anything but toolkits, could you point me to a tutorial on how to do the fastboot / superuser? I thought that you'd need to be rooted before you could install a custom recovery / superuser on your phone. I also thought that on any phone that you have to unlock the bootloader before doing anything with recovery as well. could you or someone enlighten me?
thanks!

Here ya go, this is the tutorial I used in the beginning, still gold to this day. And you don't have to be rooted to flash a recovery from the bootloader, boot straight to recovery, then flash a custom ROM. No root needed. The bootloader does need to be unlocked first though but there's nothing to it. Just follow this guide.

A little off topic, but is JRO03O the OTA version? I haven't taken it yet, but the most recent AOSP branch is for JRO03R, which comes after O
yes the ota is jro03o

no problems, let bootloader unlocked to be able to flash stock images, after, flash latest cwm with fastboot http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager and install supersu zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Thanks a LOT!, Now I'm on 4.3 stock with Root, works like a charm!!!
I just got my N7 2013 today. Should I update to KitKat and then root/unlock? If so, is the process the same as rooting on JB? If I do update to 4.4, should I do it with SDK & fastboot or will Chainfire's CF-Autoroot work as well? This is my first Nexus device, but not my first droid (as you can see below in my sig).
Rooting and unlocking can be done on either JB or KK, it doesn't matter. As for updating, it's mainly preference if you want to do it with a utility, manually, or with an OTA.

So if I understand right, I can use the same cmd commands in fastbood/adb to unlock, install recovery and flash Chainfire's SuperSU update and binaries in 4.4?

Ho guys
I recently rooted my phone so I could move files into my sd card (heard it was fixed with the last update?) and had to install a custom recovery.. Seems like I can't install the update with a custom recovery on.. Would going back to stock recovery fix this? Would I still have my phone rooted? Would it reset my phone again doing so? Thanks in advance

Hi, if you go back to stock it will reset your phone and yes, you can root a stock recovery. if you unlock your bootloader you can permroot your stock rom,
here is the perfect guide how to do it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618

Since OP has custom recovery, they must have unlocked the bootloader.
My advice to the OP, since you are already bootloader unlocked, custom recovery, and root; just flash a stock rooted or custom ROM based on the updated software. Going back to a stock is a step backwards at this point, not forwards.
Same problem

Hi, I'd like to update my rooted M8 to 4.4.3 as well and don't (yet) want a custom ROM. I searched a bit and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2694994

No, you do no need stock recovery to flash the linked stock ROM. You flash this with custom recovery.
Odexed will work. If you don't understand the difference between odexed vs. doedexed, than do a search and learn the difference, and what it will mean to you.

Thank you.
After doing my research, I think I'll pick de deoxeded version, as customization is easier. But is there really a noticeable difference in speed? I will most likely just install xposed modules, should I therefore pick deoxeded or do they have nothing related? (I didn't get what kind of customization is meant in the wikis)
Sorry for asking so many questions

Xposed should work with both deodexed and odexed ROMs; while other mods may require deodexed.
Whether there is a noticeable performance difference between odexed/deodexed, the following links saya no, with the exception of booting after clearing Dalvik:
