[ROM][GPe] Android 5.0.1 Update - Lollipop (OTA from Google)

My GPe m7 just got the update notification. I pulled the file from /cache, and here it is.
The SHA1 checksum is in the filename, bad1c593ad07005d8e82754c36caa7e7db9b6cc2. This is not a test release or a beta, so as far as I can tell, I'm the first uploader! My phone is the international m7, running 4.4.4.
NOTE: this is an OTA from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1. It requires the stock recovery from 4.4.4, and so will cannot be installed by people that rooted or manually converted their phone to the Google Play edition. (This means me, in fact. I can't install this! But I'm uploading it in the hopes that a developer can apply the patches manually and make a flashable ROM.) This includes firmware, so installing as a Nandroid backup may or may not work.
EDIT: people in this thread have already uploaded the file and are trying to install it. I suggest browsing there, because here in this thread we haven't figured it out yet!

Link has been changed to androidfilehost, so you can try again. And unfortunately, the installer requires the stock GPe recovery, version 4.4.4. Does anyone know where to find that? I found 4.4.2's recovery by searching the internet, but that doesn't help.

Make sure you grab a nandroid for me, I need this gpe goodness now

I have an initial stock"ish" kernel done already, but still need a nandroid/system dump, I can't flash Gsm as is.
Or I prefer not to anyways...
I'm sure poon won't let you guys down, but he has to have the rom to even test on first, haha.
As do I.
Stock OTA straight from Google is here: LINK

me too but cant wait did try lollipop cm12 but returned to old Carbonrom so i could use your latest cm kernel v32 i think it lasts almost 40 hrs with 3 hours screen on time

Looks like I'm behind the game! The people in this thread are already trying to figure out how to install this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=57266830#post57266830

on cm12 i have gotten 3 hours and 2 minutes screen on time before i decided to put it on charge at 3% battery

i manually converted to GPe and flashed this OTA

Vzw 5.1 soak ota

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-05eXAx4kW7aFV3Z3I0OG4yUU0/edit?usp=docslist_api
Hopefully this will help someone make a rooted img for mofo.

Hopefully!

Does anybody know if I will have problems if I install the OTA if I am currently rooted with MoFo? I understand that I will likely lose root, but will I brick my phone or anything?

It's very possible you could brick. You never take an ota on a rooted or modded device.

I sideloaded it today and besides having a mobile data issue that straight talk quickly fixed its working wonderfully.

Can't help with getting it rooted, but thanks for sharing the OTA file. I just flashed it on my VZW moto X and it's working great so far.

Any instructions on flashing this to a stock phone possibly?

Is this something new? Would this have the fixes for the bug(s) that they supposedly found in the initial 5.1 attempt 3-4 weeks back?

The 5.1 from 3-4 weeks ago is for the XT1095. This thread is about the XT1096, completely unrelated to 3-4 weeks ago.

You can also simply put the zip in your phone storage and install it from there within Recovery.

Same here. I downloaded the file from my phone, went right into recovery and selected it. Worked great.

Same here: I put it in the download folder and then installed it via recovery. See my next post for the MD5 checksum for those who want to verify their downloads.

MD5 checksum, part 2

Proof that it installed correctly

Worked great for me. Thanks.

A Little Testing - FrankenPop

IF YOU UPGRADED TO 5.1 ALREADY THIS IS NOT FOR YOU
EDIT: See the post by firstEncounter! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61749727&postcount=6
Downloads:
tldr;
If Lollipop can run without Lollipop bootloader/partition table then you can have rooted Lollipop and keep ability to downgrade.
Remember I am NOT to be held responsible for what you do to your phone.

Second?
Edit: So we actually tried this but Mofo didn't like the unrooted Lollipop image. We were able to upgrade and downgrade the things FirstEncounter was able to. Perhaps JulesJam's image would work.
After reflashing ComputerFreek's image my phone is 100% back to normal.

Someone is always willing lol, but in this case I sold my immediate backup phone so I'll be waiting. Thank you very much Matt for jumping in.

waiting to see if thermonuclear war breaks out or these two just get rooted lollipop. lol

I've been able to upgrade and downgrade boot, recovery, fsg, and modem. I haven't tested radio, but 5.1 works fine with the existing radio so far.
I'm currently uploading my modem.img that was patched with the OTA files (since it didn't come in the 5.1 image), along with the rest of the files needed to upgrade to 5.1.
EDIT: Images + instructions posted in this thread.

Doesn't include the system.img, so hold off until I get a proper rooted image uploaded.

I tried with both stock and a rooted one, works great so far.

It's a shame I jumped ship and took the OTA early. Looks like I may be needing a warranty replacement soon.

This is the unrooted ext4 image I made from the sparsechunks. If FirstEncounter's rooted image works then there is no need for me to root this one. I am not sure mine is the right size or not.

From the posts on this thread, it doesn't look like firstencounter posted a rooted image. I'm flashing now. Could someone give me a link to a rooted image to test?

[Latest][5.1.1][BUGFIX][Prerooted][23.4.A.0.570][Z2 Wifi Tablet][SGP511]

Hi,
here is the flashable *.zip file wich installs latest Sony Bugfix Release of Stock 5.1.1 Lollipop ROM 23.4.A.0.570 (Japan), latest SuperSu v2.49 beta (works stable for me since weeks!) and latest NUT Dualrecovery 2.8.21 with read and write access to system. Because device is Wi-Fi only region doesn´t matter. Only difference is maybe pre installed bloatware by region.
Thx to PRF Creator and Flashtool.
UPDATE - FILE DELETED. Please use Release from kulvertti
Of course i tested the release before uploading on my own Device. So far no errors found after upgrading.
I am not responsible for any damage to your Device or your Data! Be careful and make a Backup before flashing!

Tested now for some hours. Runs very stable.

By the way, do you have the MD5 checksum of this file? I hate to download a corrupted file. Thanks.

No. The Checksum Creation is not needed and only optional at PRF Creator. Never needed it for myself.

I'd also like the MD5. After I download, I'll post it. But if anyone else already has it, please post.
Here's what I show:
d00b36c07fa696f5803eb7671be2c518
Obviously, it could have an error and be corrupted, but I expect it's right. I guess if I flash it OK, then we'll know.

Couldn't the "No service"in the lockscreen be fixed by a module in xposed, like Xperia Xposed? I know the author would have to add it, but there's no harm in suggesting it?

quick question
Sorry for the amateur hour question, but I am 100% new to this rooting bussiness.
Do I need to Root my Z2 tablet before I do this?
Is there anywhere a ELI5 guide for someone who has never rooted a device before and is therefore ignorant about all the terms (Prerooted, ROM, Kernel, Flashing, etc)
my tablet is updated to 5.1.1 build 23.4.A.0.546
Sorry for being a pain, and thanks in advnce for any guidance.
BTW, I already tried using KingRoot and it fails at about 16%

No gurantee. Better pack your own with the Tools from first Post. It's easy.

Just flashed .570 last night and this morning I'm not getting 5gHz Wi-Fi. My dual band router is serving both bands to other devices, so that works; it's successfully serving my SGP511 at 2.4gHz. Anybody else? More importantly, any ideas how to diagnose the problem (I'm stumped)?

Check your Router. No problems here using 2.4 and 5.

You're being misguided here a little bit.
You will not be able to install dual recovery because you will not be able to gain root. Your device is having lollipop, so exploits used to for gaining root will not work in your case.
What you need to do is to downgrade from LP to some kitkat version where the exploits will work. Then you'll be able to install dual recovery and only after that you'll be able to flash pre-rooted lollipop.
To downgrade you need to use FTF from FTF collection (version prior to or equal 17.1.A.0.402)

S7 will be unresponsive for a few seconds randomly

So I rooted and flash my s7 back to stock. Since then and after doing a couple of full factory resets and with no SD card in the phone's "recent" and "back" buttons at the bottom will light up, screen stays blank during this, then the phone will not wake up for a few seconds. Even if I'm pressing the Home and power buttons. Happens randomly.
I've used Package disabler Pro to disable all bloat ware, but still didn't help. Really not sure what to try next.
Any thoughts?
thanks

When you flashed back to stock, did you flash all 4 files via Odin? You didn't use Home_CSC, did you?

I believe I did flash all 4. But would you have a link for flashing so I can preform it again just to be sure. I didn't use the Home file either.
thanks

You can also look into the U-firmware. The latest build works very well on Verizon, and it's VERY responsive. You miss out on all of the Verizon based features, but everything else is silky smooth.

The one I linked is the exact same Marshmallow build you already have.
The U-firmware I mentioned is also Marshmallow. I did a short write-up with pros and cons in this forum a few days ago, along with a link to the firmware.
Finally, nothing that you flash with Odin on this phone will be rooted. The engineering (root) kernel can be flashed with Odin as part of the process to root the phone, but it won't flash a rooted system.
