First development notes from JBQ, AOSP in a few weeks

Jean-Baptiste Queru said:
-Until the Jelly Bean source code becomes available in a few weeks,
it's not a suitable device for custom builds.
-To get into fastboot, hold the Power button for one second, release
it, and quickly press VolumeDown when the Google logo appears.
-When flashing via fastboot, run "fastboot erase" on each partition
before flashing that partition, as the bootloader doesn't do it
automatically.
-I'm hoping to make a factory image of the preview build available
after Google I/O.
-We already have the necessary licenses from NVIDIA and Broadcom for
AOSP Jelly Bean to run and access WiFi on Nexus 7, once it's released.

I think the last point is the most significant, we shouldn't have ANY issues with our AOSP custom builds!

Moto X OS Updater

Hello everyone,
I am posting here today on the topic of the Moto X OS Updater. I have the VZW Moto X Dev Ed running Rooted Kit Kat 4.4. I do not want the new update and it is asking me everyday if I would like to install. As I am not interested in doing so I would like to remove this. Is there a way to shut down the updater or maybe even remove the apk? If so what is it called or how do I do so?
Thanks in advance!

Well from what I read I can't go back to the post camera update if I take 4.4.2. This is important I am able to do what I want you know.

The main reason people want to get back to 4.2.2 is to root. with the DE you can root with any version because of the unlocked bootloader.

yeah, but a little reading and people can figure it all out. and some of the fear is good, people get a little too trigger happy sometimes before they learn the ropes of a new device.

well it is very known what you can and can't flash, it's stickied in the general thread. No misinfo on that one. also all the upgrading and downgrading software and bootloader info is there too. pretty much everything, I think the people who are nervous are the ones not reading threads. things are pretty clear and dry here, and many questions have been answered there too!

Wow, good read! Thanks for the link!

CartlandSmith said:
From what others are posting using the unofficial fxz, you can run the 4.4 system with the 4.4.2 bootloader and I would presume the 4.2.2 system, too although I don't see where anyone has specifically tried that. However, if you do run a lower version of the system than the bootloader and accidentally take the 4.4.2 OTA again, you will brick. So you would need to freeze the OTA app to avoid that.

[INDEX]Nexus 5 Lollipop Release Build Thread[No Discussion on Release]

Nexus 5 Lollipop Final Release Build Thread​This Thread serves to be the reference thread for all the stuff related to the release build of Lollipop which is going to be released very soon. Official Android Twitter account confirmed the lollipop release today.
Note:DO NOT DISCUSS ABOUT THE RELEASE SCHEDULE OF THE FINAL IMAGE.
Update: The download link is up. Get your image here. Link
Note:Please keep this thread clean and do not post any questions which could have been already answered in other threads and I believe there is a separate thread for such discussions. Also try to be as specific as possible when you report bugs so that the details about the bug would be added to OP in proper manner.
Enjoy the dessert guys.
Note to Mods: This is not the replacement thread to the Discussion thread you just closed. :highfive:

final isnt right. release version is right. as with other android versions, it will get revised, probably many more times than once. oh, still, i do not see the point to your thread?

To serve as Index thread to anyone who wants to get started with the Release Build. Some short guides may be added to the thread if necessary or the links to the basic stuff like 3rd party kernels and different mods would be definitely added. Peace.

Still can't see the links on the website, but download started, that's weird :')

omg!!!!!!!
downloading now! finally...

What is this link? No image link on official page?

Havent looked in there since im waiting for 5.1.1 officially to arrive so i could root

We can't use anything 5.1.1 until we have a proper kernel built off 5.1 sources

There is a 5.1.1 leak for our device, getting him to share is a whole other story though. I sent him a PM, with no response. We'll see what happens.

And those won't be released until after the official release drops. If they already working on 5.1.1 it'll be at the the end of the month the earliest we'll see something.

It is only a leaked test build -not the official final one. I would not trust it. It doesn't have the new much better camera features and the camera is even not as good as the 5.0.2 version. I'd wait if I were you. Having an early release does not mean it is better than waiting a couple of weeks to a month!

Any news on camera/DRM fix?

Hey, I noticed the snapdragon sources were released a month ago while reading another thread, does that mean we are close to a camera fix? It's the only thing holding me back from buying this phone.

Please read and understand the twrp thread.
Then you would know the newest informations about TWRP, DRM and AOSP and why these things are not working.
You can ask these things there.
