Android L preview and OTA - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi XDA,
I an currently using the android l developer preview. I want to know if i would be able to update ota to android 5.0 once it comes out while i am using the preview. Thanks

No I don't believe so. You would need to flash the 4.4.4. factory image in which case you might as well flash the 5.0 image when it comes out. It contains all the same things that the OTA will have

[Q] 4.4.3 Bootloader?

Hi, I was looking to update my Nexus 7 2013 Wifi to Paranoid Android's recent RC1 update with 4.4.3. I'm currently running an old build from May so I'm still on 4.4.2.
Before I update to PA RC1, I want to have the latest bootloader from 4.4.3, but I can't find it anywhere. Could anyone provide a link? I'd appreciate it very much.
That's because there was no bootloader update, it's still using 04.02 which was first released with KOT49E/4.4.1

That would explain why I found nothing, thank you.

In the future, if you ever need to obtain the latest bootloader (or any older bootloader), you can always download the factory image for the version you're looking for and extract it from the zip.

(q) firmware help

I went to Android revelations download list to search for the latest firmware but I just can't figure out which one it is. I am s-off and my last firmware I flashed was the first Android L one because at&t still didn't have Android L out yet. It's been months since I have worked on my phone..
Can anybody tell me the latest version of firmware and of where to get it?
Much appreciation!

If you are actually using the phone on AT&T's network, I'd try 4.28.502 or 4.16.1540 (AT&T Lollipop and Dev Edition Lollipop, respectively).

Nexus 7 w/ LTE - Still on 4.4.4; Update to 5.1

Hey folks,
Somehow my 2013 Nexus 7 w/ LTE got skipped on updates. It is still running 4.4.4. This is even after a device reset recently, which I thought may "kick" the update to occur. It is not rooted or running any custom ROMs. So I will just need to do this on my own. I bought the device directly from Google and had it on the Verizon network for the last year or two, if that means anything.
So now I am looking to manually update it to 5.1 and beyond.
1) Will I be able to go directly from 4.4.4 to the most recently 5.1 release (I saw something with a Stagefright fix was recently release by Google), or will I need to go from 4.4.4 to 5.0 to 5.1?
2) Should the directions to install the releases be similar to those I frequently see that explain how to install a new update before Google OTA's it?
Thanks for the assistance!

Could you post a backup created by recovery? My zenwatch was hosed by a bad update and after doing a recovery factory reset I'm stuck in a boot loop. I need a full firmware, not just a OTA update. Any help would be appreciated.

Update Stock from 4.3 to 4.4

Hi all,
still got my z1c on Android 4.3, if I install an official update now, will i get android 4.4 or android 5.1?
I don't really want to install 5.1 unless I'd really need it and so far I only had problems with Onedrive on Android 4.3
And I want to keep the Lockscreen Widgets, are they still present on Sony Android on 4.4??
btw If I unlock the bootloader i'll get this DRM **** problem with the camera right?
Or is it possible to root the stock firmware?
Thanks
