Guys,
Recently updated to PA 5.1 and there are a number of little issues for me so if they are not resolved I would definitely like to try Slim again, Slim us the ROM I first installed after rooting.
My question is can I dirty flash from PA 5.1 to the latest version of Slim or what do I have to do? Thanks.
Hi!
Going from one ROM to another one, you should clean flash.
OK thank you for replying, I've had issues before clean flagging though I think that was due to older hardware.

Hello everyone. I searched quite a while now and haven't been able to find a answer to my question. I'm also new to flashing roms.
Would flashing to another build brick my device?
Any version of the Nexus 7 ROM should work, whether it's JRO03C, or the newest JRO03D, since they were all made for the Nexus. I suggest that you always stay with the most recent one though, for bug fixes and security updates.
Thank you. That was greatly appreciated.

Hey Guys,
I recently upgraded to the new Nexus 7 and am giving my old one to my little sister. I wanted to update to 4.3 but am not sure if there are any stable roms that she won't need to update or trouble shoot yet.
Any suggestions?
Should i just try the stock 4.3 for her?
Thanks

I would recommend stock 4.3
1. Wont need to trouble shoot.
2. Will get a message when Google pushes an update
3. Stable
I agree with kilometers4...
Stock JellyBean 4.3 is smooth, stable and secure.... and has minimal maintenance hassles.
Difficult to recommend anything else really.
Rgrds,
Ged.
Anything with stock kernel is basically reliable in the fact the source is AOSP so everything is opened up to us and is stable. Can't go wrong with stock. I myself am currently using one of the first roms that came out Clean ROM 4.0 and it's just peachy.

What everyone else said. For a kid the most stable and trouble free ROM is usually stock.

Hi,
After installing PARANOIDANDROID following this post . The baseband isn't recognised inside PA, so i tried to flash it after the rom but no change. I read a lot about loosing the Partition where the IMEI is stored an got really scare xD After unroot and going back to stock Rom everything is fine. So PA didn't recognise either the partition or the baseband ? Am I doing anything wrong because in no faq was my problem explanded or mentioned.
Sorry for my bad english.
Regards,
Zardorac
nobody ?
You most likely did not do anything wrong, I've been seeing a lot of issues lately with the radio after people flash PA 3.99. I had an issue too last time I installed PA where my radio stopped working completely no matter what the ROM, and I wound up having to use the LG download tool to fix it.

Hello,
I have been using Snapshot M8 for longest time and have quite enjoyed it.
For last day or so, i have been trying to update to M10 but i have been unsuccesful.
Im very technical savvy but when it comes to understanding some of lingo on this board, i am terrible.
So, ive tried updating to the KitKat firmware but after so much trouble ive decided to abandon it in favor of the JellyBean firmware. After bricking my phone over and over again, i finally got back to stock 4.4.2 with working modem's and the like. Also, ive reverted back stock recovery.
Ive read through quite a few threads but to no avail, can not understand how to upgrade or downgrade to M10.
Can anyone help me find what version of the firmware i have and advise me how to upgrade to M10? (jellybean, since i heard they're are problems)
I hate asking for help, i just cant understand what to do.
ALSO, THANK YOU DEVELOPERS for such a great port!
I believe you need the KK bootloader for M10.
So you'll need to flash this first (or just an official stock KitKat firmware), then a compatible recovery (e.g. CWM 6.0.4.9) and then CM M10.
lem22,
Thank you for your reply!
So its not a good idea to flash M10 using the jellybean firmware?
I can successfully flash CMW 6.0.4.9 using RSDLite. (ive become quite fluent after bricking my phone, haha.)
but when i tried to install M10 through CWM i get a status 7 error, i believe im flashing with 6.0.4.9 KitKat.
You must flash KitKat update first (http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=8), then compatible recovery and then CM11 M10.
I suggesting to use CM Nightly builds (mine is 9/27, which is more stable than snapshot builds.

So far there is no major bug/issues i found in my daily use like phone calls, wifi, themes, games & apps running fine, and i do dirty flashing with last nightly build if there are a lot changes/fixed.
Hey everyone, I've been away for a very long time from this device (and forum obviously), I need some help catching up. My device is currently running rastapop rom (5.0.1) with CWM 6.0.4.7. I want to renew my device with a clean, latest and stablest rom, I dont care about features or Android version. Can anyone recommend me a good, solid rom, and provide some details regarding the installation? (e.g should I update bootloader or CWM?)
Many thanks in advance.
I found that the latest stock 5.1.1 on a nexus 4 is very stable without any issues.
Latest build of purenexus rom is awesome.
I had been away from this phone for a while as well and I have to agree the latest Pure Nexus is butter(first I updated to the latest official 5.1.1 to get the latest partition updates.). Better than average battery life, super stable. I've yet to have a single reboot or any other unpleasantness.

The first thing you should do is to flash the latest twrp recovery, CWM is not maintained anymore for the nexus 4.
