That's one way. But not the way i want to do. Btw it will be easier to flash the complete image via Toolkit.

Now i've flashed the factory image with Android Toolkit aka Nexus Toolkit. After that i reflashed the Custom Recovery.

Does it wipe whole data, including user data?
Right now I use stock 4.3 only with root and custom TWRP recovery. It would be the best for me to flash .ZIP file with rooted 4.4 trough recovery
At the beginning you have to choose if you want to format the user data. But ur right, the easiest way for those with custom recovery is a flashable ZIP.

For a Wi-Fi tablet, you really generally only have to push /system and maybe /boot through fastboot. It's two terminal commands, which is rather faster much of the time. That said, that presumes familiarity and comfort with the fastboot tool.

Especially that I don't want to backup all my aps with TB. And I don't even know it there's root already for N7's kitkat so I could restore all apps with Titanium Backup
Going back to stock and flashing the OTA using TWRP was the easiest method for me, now I got 4.4 rooted with OC and perfectly running.

All y'all are overcomplicating this. There is nothing magical about the google script and download. Its just 4 partition images (boot, system, data and recovery) and batch file that runs a simple script to flash them. We already have the data we want and the recovery we want. So pull the images out of the file (they are buried under three compressions...its ridiculous). Pull boot.img and system.img. Then boot to recovery and factory reset. Then boot to bootloader. Then in a terminal on your PC, fastboot flash boot boot.img then fastboot flash system system.img. The reboot to recovery and flash the latest supersu.zip. The reboot, setup and restore with Titanium. Done. No need to ditch your recovery or blow away the media section of data.
Caveat...this assumes you are already on bootloader 4.23. There is no new bootloader for KK.
Can someone post power.grouper.so from /system/lib/hw 4.3 version? can't flash 4.4 because custom kernel and that file is unexpected contents... flashing stock kernel didn't help
Waiting patiently, I know it'll be out eventually and I'm in no rush. My tablet's usb connection hasn't worked in a long time, it charges fine but lsusb never registers anything. It's a hardware problem, I replaced the screen last month and I noticed the plug was slightly damaged.
TL;DR Some of us can only upgrade from a flashable zip, no usb connection means no fastboot
Thanks

That sucks, sorry to hear that. My USB is getting rickety. I use a wireless charger on my S4 to try to keep down the wear and tear.

Hmm seems as though no one has been able to make a flashable zip for any nexus 7 bootloaders... I suppose I should try to get back onto the stock version of android that matches my current bootloader without loosing custom recovery, get rooted, temp disable root, get back to stock recovery, get the OTA, restore root, get twrp back

Do not install this on a Sprint Galaxy S4!!!
I made a mistake by trying to do a mod to make my Sprint S4 able to write to the SD card, and ended up having to re-flash Kit-Kat. This installed Kit-Kat NAE, but not English, and certainly not for Sprint variant. This if for international I9505 (or something like that).
Look in the Android Development forum for a the stock rooted Sprint Galaxy S4 NAE 4.4.2 Kit-Kat. I just installed that one with success.

Because I flashed this. It installed, and it wasn't in English in initial setup. Was in German, or Dutch, or some other European language. I was able to choose English setup though. Got it going, made my way to Settings, About Phone, and said model I9505. Modem didn't work, so no wifi or phone signal. Plus no Sprint boot logo, and the Samsung boot logo had a little music jingle with it, Sprint does not.
working data and WiFi
Tried installing this ROM with no success to any type of data. Looked into unknownforces stock rooted ROM from the android development forum.
1. Clean to install new ROM using Philz 6.0.8.9(what I used) said any can be used
2. Even of you have already flashed new modern do it again now
A. Power completely off
B. Go into download mode
C. Odin new NAE modem(auto reboot and freset unchecked)
D. After Pass reboot into recovery
3. Clean wipe for new install
4. Install unknown forces ROM
5. Reboot and enjoy data working and WiFi working
PS. I did install the ROM wrong before and got unknown baseband. Did these steps and nae is there

My phone will boot past the LG screen, but then stays at the "verizon" screen. If i try to put it in recovery(i have cwm) it just reboots. I really need a fast fix, im having to use the good ole slll until my jewl is working again. Thanks in advance

You need to make sure your boot stack and radios are appropriate for the rom you want to flash. The G2 ROM scene is a bit fractured, since CM11 and a good chunk of derivative ROMs are still based on the 12B (4.2) OTA, but some devs are now working with the 24A (4.4) OTA.
If you can get into the bootloader/fastboot, you may be able to flash the appropriate boot stack and recovery from there, if you know what you're doing. The "cleaner" route would be to use TOT or KDZ to get back to stock, and start from scratch.

If you can't get into recovery, and only download mode, I'd probably go ahead and return to complete stock. The nice thing about this phone is it is easily rooted and rommed again if you want to do that. Plus you'll learn a lot in the process. My two cents. :thumbup:
Edit: When you return to stock, take the Ota to 4.4.2, then root.

advice, thought, or a suggestion.. dont use toolkits until you know what you are actually doing. do things the right way, until you learn how to do it properly. then use all the toolkits you want. the problem is that toolkits dont teach you a single thing, and doing things right on any nexus is very easy.
my suggestion would be to wipe data/system then reflaah cm again.

I actually am not a noob,
And I do know how to flash factory images manually using fastboot commands.
I downloaded all necessary files to flash manually.
I did that,
Wouldn't boot past boot animations.
Tried again with tmobile official (from google) files,
Same thing. So last resort was wugs.
Clean flashed cm12.1.
And wouldn't boot.
I appreciate your advice, but don't assume because I didn't succeed on a simple thing as a flash, that one is not familiar with this. The only thing I can think of that would have prevented boot was maybe I had a bad DL of cm.
But unlikely.
Planned on downloading a diff ROM and gapps.
If it doesn't I'll be flashing factory images of LMY47M manually and reroot and recovery and start from there.
Oh and thank you for the wipe/advice.
I did :-/ go fig
Reflashed before I restored backup but no go.

I reread the thread like 3x.
And it was mentioned that another user used NRT to downgrade successfully.
I thought the same thing, but didn't try it till I read that thread till 4am. This morning decided to take the plunge.
I was thinking also, if I just reflash bootloader and radio and put M back on, then just try manually flashing 5.1?

i did flash the new bootloader, but i went back and forth from M to terminus(rom) about 5 times yesterday. flaah the new bootloader again, and keep it. you trying to downgrade it might be the issue. btw, i flashed m, and the bootloader, via twrp recovery, its much easier and faster that way. after, i made a backup in recovery. so now all i do to go back and forth is restore the backups.
oh, and i meant you no disrespect. while it doesnt include everyone, most people using toolkits around here are noobs. and they are the ones that usually get stuck. so, i apologize

I think that's where I messed up from the beginning when I flashed M.
I didn't notice the modified boorloader that doesn't force encryption and it was all downhill from there.

What cracks me up the most is people that posses limited knowledge about fastboot flashing partition images are just seemingly willy nilly flashing images not really fully understanding what they are doing/flashing. We all have to learn somehow but I wouldn't do it at the expense of flashing a boot loader. If anything went wrong during a boatloader flash you would definitely have an unrecoverable hard brick.
Moral of the story.... People, read the how to's and SLOW down... Think about what you are doing. After reading the above replies its clear to me that people are getting a bit confused with a boot.img and a bootloader.img. its OK guys. Just be careful
As we get closer to 6.0 update. I'm new to the rooting scene. I recently rooted my nexus 6 and was wondering where I could find the download for all the Google OS updates, I've heard you cannot download Ota anymore unless you reflash the system.img
Also. Once I download an updated img, how do I apply it?

I havent dont an OTA in a very long time so Im not 100% sure on this, but I think you're best option would be to just flash the official OS via odin when Google releases. Or restore the nexus to stock settings, and OTA that way. Either way I think you will have to flash an img.
I am going to unroot my Nexus 6 before I get the OTA. I am also going to do a factory reset before I install it so I can start out clean. I

odin is used by samsung for samsung phones. the n6 isnt a samsung phone. anyways, you can and have to use fastboot on any nexus device, to flash a factory image.

Unzip it and if you want completely clean install just use their flash-all script.
