Does anyone help me out? I didn't want to root my nexus one but had to do this and in the process I lost the original stock android 2.2.1 froyo ROM. I have searched a lot on the internet for the original ROM but all in vain. Can somebody tell me from where I can get the original ROM or whether I can get the OTA firmware update for my rooted nexus one? I m w new android user n want to stick to the original ROMS for some time! Thanx!

Another option if you don't mind manually flashing via fastboot (and assuming your bootloader is unlocked) is to grab the Nexus One system image from developer.htc.com

Could someone make a list of all the apps that came with their nexus? The ones that come with the default stock rom?
Not to be rude or anything but why do you need this?

Download a stock ROM and look in /system/app.
No need to flash. Just go in the zip and look around
So all right, I thought that when a newer version of Android came out and I am for example on CM10.1, I can update the android version and ROM by flashing a new bootloader and baseband, then flash the ROM and Gapps you want.
But today I read about someone who didn't accomplish to install a 4.2.2 ROM when he was on 4.2.1 so he installed factory image.
Can someone now please tell me what you need to do, so I am prepared when KLP arrives.
Thanks in advance!

Best advice I can give you is to learn fastboot. You can download images from Google once released and manually flash each thing that you want to update. You just unzip the files and fastboot flash them to your phone.

I think I am misunderstood.
I meant how to upgrade android version if going from a custom rom to another custom rom.
So for example CM10.1 Android 4.2.2 and going to Xenon HD Android 5.0
Thats possible right?

Most developers list instruction on how to install from different custom roms in the install method if they differ (example post#2 in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075444). If not, you could post in the thread of the custom rom to see if there are any special steps for that rom. I would advise reading through the first few posts of the custom rom to make double sure they didn't explain how to first.

1. Download new factory image
2. Flash bootloader and radio
3. Flash new custom ROM
4. Done
It's not that hard really

But I do have to flash factory image in fastboot? No other ways by just using CWM?

You don't, bootloader and radio should be enough, but you WILL need fastboot to get that bit done

There is a flashable zip for that. So I can just use CWM when upgrading ROMs?

I personally prefer to use fastboot but if there is a ZIP then you could try that...

Why do you prefer that even of you install the same file? But the answer on my question is that I can install a 5.0 ROM if I just flash the new bootloader and baseband?
Thank you for helping me!
Yes, as I answered that earlier
As for why I prefer fastboot - I always like to do everything manually. I then know I'VE done things right as an updater-script in a CWM ZIP file could be wrong/corrupt. It's a safety thing. Plus, once it's done it's done so I wouldn't have to do it again unless I wanted to downgrade Android to 4.x

But with CWM you also have to flash once I think? Because you dont flash it on a ROM, but before a ROM so the baseband and bootloader will last untill you install another I think?

Fastboot flashing is permanent - once flashed you don't have to do it again. A CWM ZIP can do the same but I, personally, DO NOT LIKE DOING IT THAT WAY. I don't know what else you want me to say?
Do what YOU want to do

Yeah but CM11 (or whatever it may be called) wont be ready as yes as Android 5.0 comes out, and I may use the stock ROM the first day it comes out, which I will flash in CWM so I wanted to know if I needed to do something else.
Hello
I have a rooted nexus 4 with paranoid android rom and franco kernel and i wanted to know how to delete the rom and the kernel and unroot the device to be on normal stock android
EDIT: i have twrp that i want to delete too
Check the rootkits threads, they - before everything- did give a lot of info and advice on that. But of you're feeling a bit lazy and like gambling it (heh always is when we don't read it all) the rootkits themselves have the procedures to get your phone back as it was.

Just download the factory image and flash it in fastboot. Search for efrant's guide on how to do that.

Hm I can't get the link for the subforum itself because I'm on tapatalk but this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995688 has some info already, but check the forum where it's posted as well.
Just be sure on how and what are you going to do, these procedures depend much on how and what you specifically did to your phone. Read as much as you can there.
