Nexus 4 ANDROID M! - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, there is enough of Android ROM Stock M on Nexus 4? ..... If you where I can find this ROM?
Thanks for the answers hello

Not quite sure what you are asking. Does this help?

Hey I heard nexus 4 is going to have Android M but there isn't any ROM based in it yet
So wait to the OTA or wait to see the factory image in the Factory Image for Nexus to install it manually

There is nothing confirmed either way.

There's nothing in the hardware of the phone that would prevent Android M being produced for it. Whether Google will put in the effort is another matter.

[Q] Factory Google Image?

Hey guys n gals,
I should receive my Nexus 4 today and first thing Im going to do is flash the stock Google Android 4.2.1 ROM.
I am just wondering if the ROM (occam 4.2.1 JOP40D) on this website is the latest official Google 4.2.1 ROM that will receive future OTA's?

Thanks in advance!
Your phone will come with the latest Google software, or it might prompt you to do the so called "December bug" update. No need to flash a stock image. If you want to stay stock then just leave it at that.
Or I'm totally misunderstanding your question..
Yes that is the latest.

Yes to both questions
Thanks for the reply everyone I appreciate it. Just wanted to know if it was the stock ROM incase the phone came with a carrier specific firmware like the Galaxy Nexus did.
i guess it's time for you to change your avatar to the colorful nexus's X

This is where PACman rom is. Stick with Android. You will never look back. And if you BADLY want IOS back, MIUI gives a similar experience.

Before doing any modifications to your phone, get to know android, read the wiki's about terminology and how stuff work around here. You'll be doing yourself a big favor, and escaping a potential "Help-i bricked my device" thread. You can't flash roms from other devices.
One more tip, post questions in the Q&A section, you'll get better support and answers there.

Never ever flash anything from another devices forums. You might permanently brick your phone.

Unlocking and rooting
One I've unlock and root my nexus 4 it's stay unlock and rooted for good?
If i want to return to,stock image or change to another rom I only need to flash the rom without the all procedure of unlocking and rooting?

Once you unlock it stays unlocked whenever you flash a ROM it comes with root.

Will the 4.4 OTA update replace the ignored 4.3 update?

I've been ignoring the 4.3 update prompt, it will never see my phone.
With 4.4 rumored to release tomorrow, if I reboot my phone, will I instead see the 4.4 update prompt? Will I be able to tell if it's 4.3 or 4.4?
I hope I don't have to have a 4.3 phone to get the 4.4 update?
If so, I hope a factory link will pop up soon to flash through stock recovery using fastboot in nexus 4 toolkit.
Thanks.
I don't think it will release tommorow or this week anyway..
But as I know from Galaxy's devices you should update to the version before the new one...then you'll get the new version update.
I guess someone will export it as soon as it goes out and you could flash it stright..
many of the ota updates arent full rom updates, but partial roms. because of this, you would need 4.3. even if someone posts a link to the ota file, if its not a full rom, you would hve to update it over 4.3.
Its not going to come tomorrow it's probably just being announced

I HAVE THE EXACT SAME QUESTION AND GOOGLE IS NOT ANSWERING ME YET.
Please if anybody knows answer!
Will we receive the 4.4 OTA on a 4.2.2 running Nexus 4?
Updates are incremental, there's a reason to keep our phones up to date in order to receive OTA's

If you go to general forum there's a thread with the factory firmware image.
You can use adb fastboot to install it from your stock factory recovery (I'm assuming your phone is unrooted etc).
This will give you a completely new phone with official kit Kat. I just did it with mine.
Then install the new Google Now and GEL launcher apks and your phone will look exactly like the N5.

[Q] 4.4 KitKat is still not available for me OTA (11/17/2013)

Hello fellow N10 owners,
Unfortunately, the OTA KitKat update for my N10 is still not available for download.
I have reset the Google Frameworks app, but that did not work.
I am running Android Version 4.3 build JWR66Y stock rooted.
If you guys have any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Also, If you would know
how I could keep root after the update that would be awesome!
Thank you

Glad to know I'm not the only one. I was beginning to wonder if my tablet was screwed or something. I have a nexus 7 also and it has yet to get an OTA update either.
I from malaysia and also don't get any update message yet : \

Perhaps Google is waiting for Kitkat to be released on the new Nexus 10 before updatring the original Nexus 10.
There is no new Google 10 and seriously once you get KitKat on your tablet you'll wish you hadn't, the OS is like a giant phone and isn't geared up for tablets.

I disagree. With the exception of the PhoneUI settings screen it's exactly the same thing we had before with much improved performance and reliability. I'm so glad to get rid of 4.3.. Nothing but problems.
Maybe it's been pulled.

Use Adb to sideload the ota zip if you do not want to wait
And I think KitKat is great on the n10, especially with the new launcher installed

I'm still waiting too. I'm in London, UK.

The full image is available on the Nexus factory images site. If you can't wait for the OTA, just download and flash that. Just remember to edit the batch file so you don't wipe everything. Here is the link.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?csw=1#mantarayjwr66y
Taking advantage of the topic, I'm from Brazil and me has not yet come to update my tablet version is also JWR66Y rooted, I need to get the root to update via OTA? Because I remember the last update to 4.3, when restarted I had problem with the boot image and had to use a tool to change the boot image
I waited, and waited, but gave up a couple nights ago. Seems to me, it should be like a voting system. The more manual update checks you do, the sooner you get it versus those that don't manually check. Those that don't realize the update is even or won't miss it for another few days.
Editing the -w out of the batch file was troublesome for me. The flag would complete and the tablet would reboot, but it would then hang on the nexus boot screen. Tried twice, but waiting a half an hour each time, I deemed it failure. Unexpected too since I had done a full wipe, factory fresh 4.3 the week prior.
Running the unedited batch with wipe went without a hitch. No biggie since I had done it recently.

Yeah, I updated mine with the factory image several days ago...I decided to go ahead and let it do the full wipe since I was reading that folks were having issues after removing the "-w" flag. Full wipe is probably the way to go anyway if want to avoid bugs.
For anyone interested who hasn't done this before, I found the instructions here to be quite helpful:

can i keep root with 4.4 OTA
Alright guys looks like I finally got the 4.4 OTA.
Anyone know how I can keep root???
Flash SuperSU from custom recovery. SuperSU v1.69 worked for me. The latest is 1.75.

Android 5.0 Lollipop preview image

I think it'd be nice if XDA or someone else made a video tutorial on flashing the new Android 5.0 preview images onto nexus devices, I'm sure it's literally the same process as flashing stock firmware (Android 4.4.4.) but it's just a thought.
