I want to down grade from 4.3 cm to miui 4.2 . Can I just flash the miui zip with my recovery or do I have to downgrade the bootloader?

You can flash 4.2 miui without downgrading the boot loader & radio. They are backwards compatible.

You cannot allowed to downgrade 4.3.

My N9005 was on 5.0. and somehow with Odin 3.09 i could flash N9005VJUBMI7 which supposedly is a 4.3 Stock ROM. Odin said successful but phone never booted up. No power key / download keys/ recovery keys/ usb/ charger/ led response. Totally bricked :crying:
I'm not sure how Odin allowed to flash.
Trying to awake the Note3 since yesterday using microSD card method, but, no luck so far..
You still want to downgrade to 4.3? :laugh: Good luck
Ok thank you.

maesiva --- you can go to KK (4.4) ... just try flashing stock from sammy mobile. If it doesn't work, flash stock 5 (not a modified rom, but stock).
PS - should be able to do by Odin.

Getting Android N on rooted Nexus 6P

Okay so I rooted My Nexus 6P a while ago and now that there Android N has been released I wanted to go ahead and get that. However since Google is only offering it via OTA I didn't know how to do it. I googled around a bit and searched on XDA but couldn't really find what I was looking for (There might be a thread for this question already Sorry!). I just wanted to know if I could flash N through TWRP somehow. All help is appreciated thanks!.
Nope twrp won't work. Just Flash the stock Recovery via flashify or via fastboot. After that the ota will work.

That would remove my root right
After flashing the N Preview you will lost root. Just flashing the Recovery won't end with loosing root.

Flashing only the recovery isn't enough, if you're rooted you can't take OTA updates. It isn't only being offered via OTA either, you can get the factory images and flash them via fastboot, and this is the only way you can do it if you're rooted.
