Nexus 4 Bootloader Collection

As there is no collection of Nexus 4 bootloaders yet I decided to do so. I only pull bootloaders out of the OTAs so if there is a new version available only as factory image I don't provide you a flashable zip. Also please note that only build numbers with a factory image are listed here (to see a full list in which version which bootloader was the current one have a look on the XDA wiki)

Flashing is at your own risk! I am not responsible for bricked phones.
In my opinion the flashable zip is as risky to flash as an OTA update as it uses the same commands.
Thanks to:
efrant for also providing flashable bootloader zips and helped me to fix a really stupid bug

Which bootloader is this?

I will also try to make a PC program for that which is easy to use. As it is ready it will be added.

Doesn't 4.2.2 ship with a newer hboot?

Hi,
Yes it's actually the latest version.

The z10o bootloader can be found here.

Just to make sure, z10o is the latest botloader right?

what's the different between the two version?

The nexus devices are meant to be sent without any carrier intervention. I ordered mine from T-Mobile, where they love to lock you out, however rooting my nexus was easy as paranoid pie

Unsure. Some Nexus devices in the past have had carrier SIM locks. (Mostly Orange and Vodafone I believe). I most cases, Nexus devices are not carrier SIM locked.

I too am wondering this exact question. I am currently on makoz10l. I'm tempted to switch however I don't know if I'll even benefit from it aside from it being a newer bootloader.
If someone could shed some light on the differences between the two or how we would benefit from the newer bootloader I'd be most thankful. I will click thanks

[O] 4.1.2->4.0.3 unlock retained?

Hi, I was wondering which combination of
flashtool + firmware
when DOWNGRADING from an UNLOCKED v20a
will retain the UNLOCK after the downgrade to say: v10a
And, on the other hand, which combination of
flashtool + firmware
will remove the UNLOCKED bootloader state during a downgrade to say: v10a or v10h etc.
Thanks,
Roesti

I don't know if it will work... LGFlash Tool seems to completly wipe the phone.
Better try to manipulate them with sdk or normal kdz flash programs.

[Q] bootloader unlock kill the carrier unlock

Question :
I have a carrier unlocked AT&T phone (4.1.1) I'm using on TELUS/BELL in Canada.
IF I unlock the bootloader to downgrade to AT&T ICS so I can use the Lapdock again,
Will the downgrading/unlocked bootloader kill the carrier unlocking ?
(may be this question is coming a bit too early in the bootloader unlocking adventure ?)

no once the phone is sim unlocked...thats it is for any carrier....
yes you can downgrade upgrade sidegrade almost anything
i hope that is going to be kernels and rom modified and costumized from an ICS base so we can use as lapdock.....
that is the reason i'm still on ICS ........

HI. I am in the UK, on EE, have an i9305 (Galaxy 3 LTE) and have tried a few different ROMS and have had absolutely no problems on 4.2.2.
I tried the Supreme ROM 4.1.2, but upgraded to the LiquidSmooth ROM 4.2.2, v2.2 (STABLE) and have had absolutely no issues. In fact, I would recommend it to anyone.
Why do you go in and select the Carrier? Whenever I have flashed a ROM, it has automatically selected EE as the carrier. Is your phone unlocked?
Don't know what's wrong with your situation. Are you wiping properly before installing each ROM? Are you installing Gapps with each ROM?

If you're getting the T-Mobile network, you don't need to unlock your phone. You can try out various websites like HTC-Codes for a paid code to unlock your phone. There is also a free option, but it's a bit involved and relies on your phone being on 4.1.2 firmware. URLs are -

ok quick issue its saying its on ee and i have signal however if i take it of wifi i have no data symbol and its not connecting to anything eg fb or internet any ideas

Never had that problem tbh, but make sure data connection is enabled in data usage settings.
Failing that make sure you have the right apns installed in mobile network settings (I'm on orange and have orangeinternet and orangemms). If in doubt, ring them and ask you to send your Internet settings to your phone for you.

[Q] Help needed with locked I8190N - Firmware problems (maybe)

Hello,
maybe someone can help me or at least talk to me:
I purchased a new, sealed and locked I8190N in Germany, from TCHIBO Mobil. They are subproviders in the network of O2, j4yi.
To use the phone with another provider, I purchased an net unlock code from Ebay. I received the codes (NCK and SPCK) after some days from the seller, which do not work for me. It says something like "problems while running unlock process". Unfortunately the seller is an imposter, as he does not give me refund even I was able to show the codes he sent me do not work. But this is another story. :silly:
My question would be: Is there a stock rom I can flash to my phone? I checked my phone, at the moment 4.2.1 is installed, with I8190NXXANA1 as baseband. The last hint could be unlocking it at a phone dealer shop in town, because I was told unlocking with cable is more likely to help if code does not work. But who knows... I'm used to flashing mobile phones, running CM on my Motorola Defy all the time. But with Samsung and the special NFC version I got, I do not know wether I can use CM I8190 (without N) for my phone. Or if I should unlock it at a dealer somewhere in my town before starting flashing anything.
Thanks a lot for help and reply! :good:

afaik, you dont need phone unlocked from service provider to flash custom rom, phone just needs to be rooted.then flash rom with custom recovery. stick to roms suitable for n, i have n version & run virginity rom, but try a few & see which you prefer, there is a lot of great talent here.be careful & enjoy.

Thanks. I only wonder if it is maybe not possible to unlock it afterwards any more (after I have flashed CM). I will go to local dealer, to see if they can unlock it.

i dont think it will be a problem, let us know how you get on

You said your Android version is 4.2.1 Do you mind sharing what's your devices' model number, 'cause GT-I8190 runs android 4.1.2 and GT-I8200 runs 4.2.2. I haven't seen anything like your firmware on the S3 Mini (official by Samsung, that is)

Do not know what you mean? But already solved problem with unlocking at a local dealer. Afterwards I installed CM and now everything is ok! :laugh:

I mean that no S3 Mini version is with Android 4.2.1. Do you mean to say 4.1.2 or 4.2.2? Glad you fixed your problem
