Hello XDA friends... Today i find myself with a very challanging task. Suprisingly one that im excited to tackle I have a Nexus 6 with a developer build on it and i need to flash the Android 5.0 stock rom to it. I know this is a near impossible task given the release dates for both Nexus 6 and 5.0 but i look to you for any guidance you may provide.
Thanks in advance.
wait.

hey guys, i have a legend , 2 months old one and my software number is 1.31.***. Can i get the froyo update when they roll it out for unbranded phones? (mine was bought from the htc store) and if not, should i update it manually ? do i need to root my phone to do so?

Where's the issue? Keep waiting and sooner or later you'll be offered to apply FroYo update.

well most of the people have 2.03.405.3 , a version that iam unable to download. i want to know if there is some connection between the upcoming froyo and my old software number
Just wait for it. The Froyo released was meant for Vodafone users anyways. It'll be anyday now since it is ready. Btw, questions should be ask in General section.
Hi folks - i've never sold an android advice before (and they are a lot harder to sell than unlocked iPhones from my experience so far). Currently I have the latest Indian JB rom and rooted with Philz latest kernel. I am wondering whether I should sell it with this rom or go back to one of the original Gingerbread roms and not have it rooted. I assume that anyone who buys a pre-rooted phone with the latest rom is going to know what they are getting into. On the other hand, if the buyer isn't one of those people, I want to make sure that the phone is going to be stable and I won't have to deal with someone saying that there is a problem with the phone after they get it.
I appreciate any advice! I've got it listed on eBay now and it closes in 10 days. I would add a note that I am willing to flash it back to an original ROM if requested. Thanks in advance!

My opinion: get back to a stock version (ideally, the latest one for your country to make it "official"). If the buyer is not familiar with Android, they will be able to get updates OTA. If they are tech-savvy, they will know how to root the device and flash a new ROM.

Go back to stock to avoid trouble with the buyer.

So far I rooted with towelroot and installed safestrap and made a backup of the rom thats on here already.
At this point im not sure what direction to go in? Is my bootloader locked? I know there are more current versions of firmware out there should I odin to the latest? Can we install custom kernels? I would really prefer to stay on touchwiz and would be looking for a rom somewhat stockish. So far im a little lost but im learning a little. Any help, guidance would be greatly appreciated

The bootloader on the i537 cannot be unlocked yet. Work is being looked into on the Verizon/ATT standard S4. You're on the newest firmware right now, however there was an update released today (I don't recommend flashing/installing it yet until we know how it affects us).
With the locked bootloader we cannot use custom kernels. You can however use ATT S4 rom's on it that are touchwiz and safestrap based.
I can give you more information on flashing touchwiz/safestrap (SS) rom's if you'd like, and provide links with working ones.

Soooo, here's two ROM's I know that work.
Google Edition S4 / Pure Nexus Edition
Hyperdrive 18.1
Both of those ROM's work. Follow the steps in the first posts. However, with one change. When it tells you to flash modules for your phone, use these.

You're welcome!
Hi all, I have been running my Project Fi Nexus 6 stock but rooted and love it. I am contemplating upgrading to Marshmallow but was hoping to get some feedback from other who have gone there. So anyone out there on Fi and Marshmallow? How do you like it? Do you recommend upgrading? Some other questions:
Which ROM? Stock or Pure Nexus?
I have heard downgrading the bootloader is a bad idea after going to Marshmallow, has anyone gone back to 5.1.1?
Is there a radio that seems better for Fi?
Any concerns with the new root method?
Anything else you can add.
Thanks for and advice.

It is personal, but here are my choices. An already rooted and updated rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3059493 Goto the OP.
Good evening for you all.
I'm an absolute newcomer to Huawei, as I had Motorola devices since 2014 :silly: I hope to adapt fast to this new device
For now, I want to start slowly. I found the device I bought is currently on Android 5.0.1, and found there is a way to update it to Android 6.0 officially. However, the tutorials what I could find on internet went into a death path, as the websites or files doesn't exist.
I'm currently using an ALE-L21, Compilation ALE-L21C40B181. I found there are differences between compilations and things like that, so... can someone bring me a hand with this? :victory:
Thanks in advance
Note: I found the phone is already Rooted. Curious thing.
