4.2.1 Update with CWM!

I haven't seen anybody mention this, so ignore me if this is common knowledge. I was on my stock 4.2 rooted ROM with CWM recovery and I got the 4.2.1 system update. Attempted it with CWM... And it worked. But not only did it work, after I choose reboot phone, CWM warned me that the ROM I just installed might try to flash stock recovery, and asked if I'd like to fix it. It then warned that I might lose root, again asking if I'd like to fix it. So now I'm on 4.2.1. Through system update. Kept CWM and root. Awesome!

I'm also on T-Mobile in US, Chicago and I have not gotten update. I rooted the 18th before any Roms were out. Tried a few went back to stock so I'm wondering what I haven't got update. :/

Yeah it was like 1.1mb. Haha. I'm just surprised I could update with CWM and keep root and everything. Awesome solution for people who want to have root but still be stock and get OTAs.

this is interesting I didn't know it did this at all.. wonder if TWRP does a similar thing then?

It works...
Can confirm I flashed through CWM, rooted and on Stock 4.2
CWM warns of the stock ROM flashing stock recovery and also of possibly losing root'n'toot
What fun, flashing for dummies (me) made easier!

+1 ... Going to be a long Nite....Lol....:cyclops:

what about the colour calibration for our device?is still that whased out.any improvements?

This is only the leaked rom, isn´t it?
Correct me if i´m wrong, but we need the bootloader and baseband to be sure that it works correctly?

Rom is working great for all that flashed it, gmillz is working on deodexed atm but he's having some issues. You can follow the conversation at http://webchat.freenode.net/# #Android43

I use the newest bootloader anyway but im using .33 and seems to be working fine also got lte still

If you backup & have experience flashing roms, you should be okay. Be safe, though.

Working links to ROMs for Safestrap

Hello RAZR HD owners.
I have a request, I unfortunately took the update that has locked my bootloader. I have searched the forum for active links for compatible roms.. I am having no luck. My request, if you have them, post a link to download rom/and what you liked or didn't like about them.
That would be awesome!

Right now I'm running Nexesque on my XT926 with 9.18.79 and locked bootloader. It's a stock-based 4.1.2 of course but it's debloated, its rock solid, the battery life is good and I've flashed the add-on that removes the Navigation Bar (I use PIE Control). http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/9151-rom-droid-nexesque-for-razr-hd-5182013/
---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 AM ----------
I've also run a version of wWidow HD that's based on 4.1.1. I didn't run it for long but I didn't see any real problems. I installed each of these ROMs (wWidow and Nexesque) in RAM slots on Safestrap and toggled back and forth for a couple of days. I preferred Nexesque. wWidow HD for Safestrap is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2161937

I feel your pain Im in the same boat. I want to bring my ROM series here and I can't quite yet due to this bootloader security fix. Their has to be some vulnerability. If someone finds it and has a way to unlock our devices ill be forever in their debt xD

Do you mind posting the batakang file? I'm looking for a stock based rom that doesn't slow down. I really missed the boat on the unlocked bootloader by being a late adopter...

Yaaa bro ... I was waiting for cm 11 for a long ...
Finally feeling proud to be a nexus owner.

Just flashed CM11 an hour ago. There's still a few things not translated properly, but those are very minor flaws. It's fast and smooth. Now i'm waiting for the Themes to be updated, so I can get my favorite look back

Is there an updated gapps for cm11? The play store is broken and the keyboard keeps crashing. Could be because I dirty flashed though.

Haven't tried gapps but keyboard and all other stuff works buttery smooth
Some of the 10.2 Features are missing but its a simple and smooth one
Find the screenies

15 minutes in Bootloop already.......flashed this via CM Updater over 10.2.0.
So i have copied the Zip file (196.54 MB) from PC into the CM Folder on my Mako.
Any suggestions?

I know its not necessary but I have installed the latest bootloader: makoz30d and baseband: radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.97 on Nexus 4. Are they supported and will that boost performance ? Flashed through TWRP 6.3.3 and wiped system, dalvik and cache but not data. Everything is working rock solid till now. Thanks.

Derp. Thanks that's what I get for trying to play with a new build so late at night.
I actually found and installed the PA gapps package and that helped immensely. The only other thing I've had to do was uninstall/reinstall Google voice. Before I did that the phone was running hot (something was keeping the CPU awake). Seems to be running okay now though.

I reserve the right to be wrong but I think the baseband and boot loader didn't change from 4.3 to 4.4. At least my handset already had the versions that ate shipping in the factory 4.4 image package.

In the meantime i have done a full wipe and installed the ROM. Then i missed the Gapps so downloadeed them too. Re-installed everything and now it's running fluently.

well I'm 2 for 2 on the migration to CM11
I would say modem / bootloader upgrades are recommended based on how poor my handset worked as a phone today...
EDIT: I figured out why I missed the bootloader / modem update. I downloaded the factory image and unpacked it, then looked at the file names. The files usually reflect the version but in this case they are still named after the 4.3 versions and not the 4.4 versions. After flashing anyway KRT16S gives me bootloader MAK0Z30d and modem .97

Installing a Stock ROM to dual boot with MultiROM

Hello,
Just wondering if it is possible to install a Stock ROM without root with MultiROM and keep my primary ROM (Pure Nexus) at the same time? Thanks!

Yeah, you can add what ever ROM you like. Or do you mean a stock system image, cos that's a different story...

No Unfortunately not but if you flash one from XDA they should always be pushing out updates which you can dirty flash

I think Pure Nexus ROM is the closest you'll find, or maybe the full version of Cataclysm though it does have some tweaks. Probably the best bet.
