Flashing 6.0 ROM AFTER officially updating to 7.0 - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all. Posted this in noob thread but I've had no response. I got the device yesterday and it updated to 7.0 before I unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp. I then unlocked it, flashed twrp, and installed Pure Nexus (which is nice). I miss the theme engine on 6.0 ROMs however and I'd like to give resurrection a try. Is flashing a 6.0 ROM gonna give me any issues, now that I officially updated to 7.0?
Thanks in advance.

You need to flash bootloader, vendor, radio for MM before you procede.

If you mean custom 7.1 rom then you don't have to change anything as long as your vendor is 90w. But be cautious, it's about to change in a day or two since November stock image is out and with it, new vendor and bootloader. If you want DP 7.1. 1 then you enroll in the beta program and you'll receive ota update and you don't need anything.

May I ask something as well?
For a nexus, flashing a custom kernel requires root or unlock bootloader?
What is the use of unlock bootloader on a nexus device?
I came from a sony phone and that require unlocking bootloader to install custom kernel..not so sure about nexus.

Well you need to unlock your bootloader in order to root. I think you do need to unlock. But unlocking the bootloader is super easy so I don't see a reason not to.

BE CAREFUL of updates. Newer updates change the touchscreen driver!
If the touchscreen is working perfectly out of the box, DON'T UPDATE OTA.
If it works out of the box, I would recommend not updating and/or just flashing an updated custom rom without the touchscreen updates.

You will experience ghost touches or just check it by using an apk yamtt if you have issues..i think you can return it as long as your warranty isnt void yet

I have been reading the past couple of hours and i am sure i want to root but i read that if you update your nexus the bootloader will be updated and some partitions will too i think so my question is should i root JWR66N or update it to the latest version and then root? (Btw i will install CleanRom and i want to know if i can because i have old bootloader and partitions and stuff) Srry if confusing.

Is there an "official" 4.4.2 zip for Nexus 7 2013 Flo?

Hello xda developers!
So I had a quick question that I am really hoping that someone here can help me out with...
I have my N7 2013 32GB WiFi only model FLO tablet running Android 4.4 rooted (of course) with Multirom installed.
Okay so when I rooted my N7 I flashed the kexec kernel patch so I could install Ubuntu Touch...not knowing that Ubuntu Touch is only available for the N7 2012 tablet. So a few days after installing the kexec-patch an upgrade was available for Nexus 7. I tried installing the 4.4.2 upgrade but I knew that it was not going to work....
What I am wondering is, is there a way I can download the official ROM for the Nexus 7 (I want the official) and flash it with TWRP and Multirom? Will Multirom allow you to flash to the "internal" ROM?
If I can flash an offical nexus 7 flo rom I can then just root it again with the Nexus Root Toolkit.
I have done a lot of work with other ROMs on my Nexus 7 tablet that I have installed with MultiRom and I really don't want to have to erase everything just to put the official 4.4.2 upgrade on my N7. Yet...I really want the upgrade because I have heard they fixed a lot of issues with the camera.
Has anyone uploaded an apk for the official Nexus 7 4.4.2 camera app? If I can't flash an "official" nexus 7 flo ROM could I just install the camera apk from the Nexus 7 4.4.2 update?
I am really hoping someone can point me in the right direction here...
On a personal note I just want to say how much I enjoy this place and I am so thankful for xda and all the amazing work contributed by the developers and testers. Thank you all so much!
You all are the reason I will never buy an iPad or iPhone!
I thank you all for your time and your assistance.

You can download factory images here. https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#razor
The included flash-all.bat will also restore the stock recovery, but you can always flash TWRP afterward. Someone else will have to chime in about MultiROM, which I've never used.
Pandae thanks so much for the reply...
I will check the link out further when I get home.
I am really looking for something like an official OTA zip that I can flash where I can keep my other installed ROMs with twrp and Multirom.
If anyone has done anything like that please let me know...
Thanks again,

stock kernel for 4.4?
I am thinking now that maybe if i can get a hold of the stock kernel for the Nexus 7 on Android 4.4 i could re-flash the stock kernel to remove the kexec-patch and then i could apply the official OTA update to 4.4.2
Does anyone think this would work?
Does anyone happen to know where I might be able to get the stock kernel for the Nexus 7 FLO for Android 4.4?
Thank you all so much for your time...

I haven't seen a flashable zip for the stock 4.4 kernel. If you have adb setup you can extract the boot image from inside the factory image and fastboot flash that. Did you make a backup (nandroid) after you rooted? Of course you did! Just restore "Boot" from your backup made with TWRP. To get the OTA to work your "system" will also need to be stock and you need to have stock recovery. If you don't have stock recovery and you have TWRP for instance you can flash the OTA zip with TWRP. At the very least your system and kernel will have to be stock to get an OTA to work. Edit: I just saw this ROM Stock Rooted 4.4.2 - KOT49H and it looks like you have to flash the bootloader seperatley. Flash the ROM and bootloader with TWRP.

Hello, There is a way to download the stock ROM. I will leave a link and a tutorial on how to install it below. If you just want to flash it with TWRP then copy the .zip to your flash drive or whatever. I prefer to use fastboot because then I can flash only certain parts of the update and preserve my root. Hope this helps.

Hey DroidShadow,
If none of these worked for you, i have newer and better ROMs that ive come across over the past three months. Let me know if u want a list of them.

[Q] Why Flash Bootloader and Radio? How?

In the changelog for 4.4 RC 1, we are told that we need to flash a new bootloader and radio. This has not been part of my normal process. Why do we need to do this? Also, I wasn't able to find any threads on suggested bootloaders and radios for PA. Please point me in the right direction if this is something I really need to do. (using a Nexus 5)

4.4 RC1 - Kitkat 4.4.3
Dose of awesome sauce on this week from PA Headquarters, again. As you may know we merged 4.4.3 into our source. You will need to flash new bootloader, radio, Gapps and update to latest recovery before going forward. Many bugs have been also resolved on our bug tracker thanks to community’s reports, less to go.

I ended up unzipping the stock package and selectively flashing the stock Bootloader and Radio.
I'm not sure why I needed to do this, but I did it and I'm using 4.4 RC 1 now.
Thanks!
It was mentioned to do so but should have specified that it was only for those old 3.99 holdouts that weren't ready to switch. Mainly only applied to mako users.

You don't need to update anything then. If your device didn't come with any new boot loaders or radios then there is obviously nothing to update.

Sprint Rom Choice Question

Hello I just got my Note 4 yesterday and already rooted it. What do you guys recommend for a stable ROM for someone coming from using Josh Beach's Jellybomb/KitKat Killer for so many years.

Not familiar with either of those but I'm using Alliance as my DD and highly recommend it along with Emotion kernel.
I would suggest either the Alliance ROM or the Noterized ROM, and use the Emotion kernel with whichever you choose.

You'll see what I mean. Glad I didn't go stock just because I could. A lot of users have learned that lesson the hard way.

I am still with 4.4.4. Do I need upgrade to 5.1.1 first?
noob here, if i install this, can i still get future updates such as security patches? or future versions of marshmallow?
I am still on DOI2...
DOI6 files need to be installed first, right?
I used this procedure to update my Note 5 (insurance claim recently replaced my Note 4) so if you have any questions, I may be able to help. It looks like in order to use this file you'd have to be on firmware ending in 6.
Keep in mind, on the Note 5 there were a couple different updates posted on the server, so this one y'all found may not be the final update.
Also, if you use this via adb, it will wipe everything on the phone.

There needs to be a way to flash back to an official release. I haven't read through the Note 4 threads to see if there is. If there isn't a way to flash back, I wouldn't install this because if this turns out to be not the final OTA, you wouldn't be able to get the latest or future OTAs.

I think you can put this update on SD card and if you adb from SD card will not wipe your phone. On note 5 we did not have this option.

If this is not finale MM version you need to flash back to version you on now. There was no problem flashing back at all on Note 5, so I don't think there will be with Note 4.
For all others I will look for previous updates so you can update up to last official release.

Downgrade from 5.1.1 Lollipop back to 5.0.1 or 4.4.4:
The 5.1.1 “bootloader” is secured, so downgrading from Android 5.1.1 and returning back to Android 5.0.1 and or 4.4.4 is not possible anymore.

I know this. But for some reason I did downgrade on Note 5 from unofficial MM 6.0.1 I update thru ADB back to 5.1.1. Then I took official update thru OTA to 6.0.1 with finale build. BTW Note 5 have secure bootloader too.
