Nexus 5x TWRP flashable stock rom - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to obtain a flashable zip for the stock 7.1.1 ROM?
I'm running PureNexus as my primary ROM, but I would like to be able to flash the stock ROM as secondary ROM in multirom TWRP.

I guess it is possible. I wish someone will make it. lol. We only have debloated stock rom flashable via twrp as of now.

Thank you very much.
That will suffice. I'm going to use it as a base ROM.

I was wondering if there is a flashable and up to date stock Oreo ROM. I searched but couldn't find one. I want to use xposed and want to update the rom through TWRP instead of flashing whole factory image and erasing all stuff. Debloated would be fine, too. Just no special featured added.

If you use the flash-all batch file to flash the factory image just go into the batch file and delete the -w paramater. Alternately you can flash each partition separately with fastboot.
To maintain twrp don't flash the recovery image. With any of this you'll have to root again.

Is it possible to update the system this way with encryption enabled?

Would it be possible to flash one of the full OTA images?
eg. https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/bullhead-ota-opm4.171019.016.a1-510a2077.zip
(NB. This will probably replace your recovery with the stock one on the first boot after upgrading.)

Stock Rom flashing without pc?

Can i flash the stock rom with twrp or only with pc? I dont find a stock rom for flashing with twrp.

Of course you can flash a stock rom with twrp No pc. Most if not all developers usually offer a stock version maybe just debloated some .
But that doesn't make the device Truly stock.
You would have to fastboot adb flash the stock firmware after relocking the bootloader making it out the box stock.
You can still flash a zip or .img from flashify app which means you can unroot without a pc by flashing stock recovery.img
Then choose full unroot inside SuperSU then factory reset device within the settings menu all with no Pc.
If your doing this already on stock rom and stock kernel the unroot will stick
If you do this on a custom rom or kernel it may auto reroot\install SuperSU.

OR better yet download it all stock and flash in twrp.
This is stock rom meaning Rom only roms dont flash stock recovery only the O.S This rom is from Android dev section you'd seen it if you looked in the rom section
It's pure stock 6.0.1 you must have already been on 6.0.1 firmware update not 6.0 otherwise you need the newer boot.IMG to get it to boot up.
Providing You were on 6.0.1 Now have a stock rom "BUT" still will have custom recovery after this flash because its non rooted Rom.
So now the catch 22 is that you can't flashify the stock recovery.img from flashify app without a pc at this point because there is no SuperSU root until you fastboot adb stock 6.0.1 recovery.img with a PC.

You can flash factory image without PC with FlashFire from Chainfire, search on XDA.

Ok so I accidentally flashed the wrong TWRP img file. Now I get booting error. Can I just use flashify or rashr to flash stock kdz file. No access to a computer at all. Please exain how to flash back to stock no PC. Also eligible for an OTA updat. Can I just allow it to update to current updated software? Will that put my factory recovery img back ? Pls email me if you know as I don't get n here every day [email protected]

How do I uninstall TWRP to return phone to true "stock" form

I tried flash-all and it's not flashing a recovery. What's the special sauce for flashing the stock recovery image?
You could try fastboot. Install recovery that way. Should overwrite twrp

Where does one find the factory recovery images? They aren't contained in the Factory zips.

In a zip inside the zip. Boot.img
But I almost guarantee if you update to latest SDK Platform Tools thru android studio that flash-all will probably work..

Managed to get it back to stock with the Skipsoft toolkit. What is it that makes the toolkit different in the way it flashes the file versus the flash-all?

When I had my Nexus 6 I never used a toolkit. I'll probably never use one for my pixel either. The flash all is extremely efficient. I have heard people using toolkits before and them getting bricks because there bootloader locked and they couldn't unlock again and then they bootlooped. Edit: mostly because of Enable OEM Unlock button.

Factory images are universal for this device. All carriers are supported. Just flash the June factory image.
You can flash the boot, system, recovery, and vendor images through TWRP. Those same images can be flashed in the bootloader. Radio and bootloader images must be flashed in bootloader. Does that answer your question? If not, read my guide and see if that resolves your questions:

So when you install a new rom you don't need to flash the vendor image also? Because some ROMs say to also flash vendor image when installing a rom

This is covered in-depth with FAQ #9 of my link above. But in short, each monthly security update brings a new vendor image that must be installed. Each time your rom updates to a new month's security update, you need to install that vendor image. If you flash back to a previous month's rom, you need to flash that respective vendor image. Only exception is if your rom includes the vendor image in the rom zip.

Sorry one last question. I am on the latest security update stock, if I was to flash the latest AOSP extended on the latest security update all I would have to do is flash the ROM and gapps? But when the new security update is added to the ROM then I would flash the vendor image. Sorry if I'm asking to many questions but I don't want to run into a problem.

You're fine, ask away! Yes to both questions. Let's say the July security update is released for your custom rom. You would flash the July vendor.img then your rom and then that's it.

[Request] Stock Odexed P2a42_S244_170725_ROW flashable zip file

Hello,
Is it possible for someone to make Stock version of odexed P2a42 S244_170725_ROW, in zip format, ready to flash in TWRP? It think it could be useful for people that want to have rom as close as stock, especially for those with custom recovery, that want to have odexed system, without added anything, and with f2fs file system?
Regards,
Pro

All you need is a TWRP backup with the data partition excluded. I have about 6 days more before my bootloader is unlocked. If no one does it by then, I'll do it.

Well if you do that you will get a restore able zip AFAIK. You need to get updater script and a few more things.

Returnig to Stock Question

If I flash the latest OTA via TWRP. That would get me back to Stock no? Then once booted I could remove my google account. Boot into fastboot then ADB lock the bootloader and that should be that. I'm I correct?
If the ota has a boot.img in it probably but I'm not positive
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
Yes it will. Twrp will be replaced (if you have it installed) with the stock recovery. But why do you want to lock the bootloader?
Edit, I just saw your other post. If you want to sell it I'd flash the factory image so it wipes your device. Then skip the Google setup and lock the bootloader.
