4.0.4 bootloader and Kit Kat? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

I updated my Nexus to Lollipop using the factory images, and miss the features of CyanogenMod. Being that there are no unofficial CM12 builds or anything out yet, I'd like to go back to the CM11 nightlies. Will I run into any problems running them with the 4.0.4 bootloader, or should I downgrade the bootloader first?

New Nexus 7 cant update

I originally bought a 16GB nexus 7 which updated fine, yesterday i received a 32Gb as i was running out of space to find this thing won't update because it stuck on JWR66N build date Jun.
Looks like the 32GB i received was one of the first batch
Is there any easy way to force this to either the latest build of 4.3 or Kitkat 4.4?
No matter figured out how to update it manually, Now running JSS15R is this the latest before kitkat?
Yes its the latest 4.3 before kitkat 4.4

[Q] upgrade to 4.4.2

I am running 4.2.1 on a Galaxy Nexus model GT-i9250 and I would like to root this phone so I will be able to change to 4.4.2 or what ever is the newest one.
I don't see a question, however, I recommend reading up on the process and give it a go. I have not regretted rooting and flashing new roms.
Android 4.4.2
There are several root-methods. Many say that the Wugfresh toolbox is working great; http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/.
I've my Galaxy Nexus (Maguro) rooted, and I'm now running Android 4.4.2. It's ParanoidAndroid 4 (BETA 3). I would recommend waiting until it's out of beta. It will be great, believe me.

[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.

4.4.4 or 4.4.2

I recieved my phone last week and did the update then root and twrp. I see that some roms are 4.4.4 but my phone still says 4.4.2 .. Why is this ? Was the update I did not to go from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4? Is there 4.4.4 out now for G3? I am with TMO
There are two different types of roms for our phone, Stock(LG) and AOSP(cyanogenmod,deviantxone, etc). Your likely on the LG stock rom, which at the moment is only 4.4.2 . AOSP based roms are on 4.4.4

Not unless you load a custom rom based off aosp 4.4.4. There is currently no lg g3 on stock 4.4.4. Lg will likely skip 4.4.4 and go right to 5.0 or at least that's my hopes they will.

One can only hope, more likely they will just announce another phone that will launch with 5.0. What I am holding out for its our aosp roms to get Bluetooth and camera before I switch to one of them as my daily.

Viper4Android and Marshmallow

Does anyone know how to get viper4android working on the newest marshmallow update (mra58v) for n7 2013 using elementalx kernel? Had it working on marshmallow before updating. Since wugfresh nrt is being buggy about the bootloader at the moment and also not supporting the newest os, I rooted using the beta-supersu-v2.52 and elementalx-n7-5.04. All is good except now I can't get viper to flash in twrp (following exactly the steps involving busybox & selinux mode changer- which worked fine before).
OS: Stock 6.0 mra58v
Kernel: 3.4.0-elementalx-n7-5.04
N7 2013
