How to I manually upgrade to Kitkat? Currently rooted and running IOKP 4.3.1 ROM. I would like to be able to keep root whilst upgrading of possible?
As a side note can anyone recommend any e-book tutorials on android development and having a better understanding on ROMS/kernels etc.
Thanks.
If you want to upgrade to 4.4 or 4.4.2 you need to go back to stock ROM. As long as you have a custom recovery, like TWRP, then after upgrading, you simply flash SuperSU or any other root file you want through the recovery.

I'm on the LTE version of the nexus, running 4.0.2 rooted and unlocked. Will I still receive the update or do I have to flash it?? If I have to flash it where can I download it at?? I want to use a custom kernel but it won't work with my version...confused.

If you download it OTA then you will lose root. To retain root and custom kernals you will need to manually flash a rooted version by downloading it and using CWM.

You'll need to sit tight and wait for this. Or just flash a custom rom developed from 4.0.3.
I know that, I was telling the original poster that there was no 4.0.3 upgrade available yet.

There are 4.0.3 AOSP builds, grab one!
according some posts, you will not receive future OTA update if you have custom rom installed, even AOSP build.
I just want a stock deodexed 4.0.3 rom. No changes no mods. Does that exist?

If you have 4.1, the update is probably for 4.1.1. Installing the update would stop the notifications. You'd also then be running the current version.
You can install a custom ROM to prevent getting OTA updates.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you accept the OTA, you'll have to reroot your phone.

Accept the update,its much smoother than 4.1,and just reroot it through gnex toolkit 7.4.easy

It's probably the 4.1.1 update, like the rest are saying. But why don't you click "don't upgrade"? That should stop it.

If you don't want to update (and I have no idea why anyone wouldn't), all you have to do is change one line in your build.prop file. See here.

They just don't want you to use an older version.

Thank you.
I am currently running the latest Cyanogenmod nightly on my V500 together with TWRP.
I would like to keep TWRP and root and just want to go back to the Stock Rom to get Slimport HDMI to work.
Does anyone know where I can get the stock ROM?
I have the kdz file, but that does not really help me, as I want to flash just the rom using ether TWRP or flashify.
Good question. It would be great if somebody would cook up a stock rom that could be flashed with TWRP (or flashify).
Is it possible to "cook up" such a rom from the kdz file?
I know it was done for other devices...
