What about the bootloader?

jsgraphicart · Jul 25, 2013

Awesome. Are all the new Verizon 4.3 binaries included and good to go?

Yes all systems green. Stock recovery removed as well to prevent the nightmares from that

Flash the maguro bootloader. They are fully compatible (do not flash a toroplus bootloader under any circumstances though. only maguro and toro)

jsgraphicart · Jul 25, 2013

Is the bootloader needed?

No.

As it is a Nexus, probably not. But wouldn't hurt to be on the proper bootloader made for this version of Android. Obviously something changed or it wouldnt have a new version.

I haven't noticed a difference. I'm still waiting for the gapps to finish, but i flashed the maguro ROM, and it is fast.

Is there a MD5? Flash kept failing for me.

UPDATE: I downloaded again, and flash is still failing. Has anyone been able to flash this?

misterk267 · Jul 25, 2013

What is the proper size of the .zip? Copy never works properly for me and will complete before its ready.

Won't work for me either.

Can you guys try the dev-host mirror? It display the md5 as well

misterk267 · Jul 25, 2013

Yeah I'll give it a try. I'm not hopeful though, because the devhost zip is the same size as what I got from the copy link, and the one from copy won't flash. Are they different in any way?

Wouldn't flash for me either. Trying the dev-host mirror now.

What error does the recovery display?

E: Can't open /sdcard/0/AOSP 4.3.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.

Edit: md5 checks out for the dev-host mirror, flashing now.

RepeatUntilTheEnd · Jul 25, 2013

Tried all links and downloading multiple times... Are the gapps supposed to be taking an hour to download? High traffic since this is the first and only 4.3?
