This is still valid.
On my N4 took a long time to update. The spinning logo was in display for a while. Don't panic.

Mind you haven't had time to try it myself, but I don't believe you need stock recovery. But you'll need everything else. Your going to loose root. I recall seeing there is a new root for L worked out by Chainfire you'll need that if you want root again.
It worked perfectly while flashing the new 5.0 image. But how is it possible that it still remembers my home screen icons, wallpaper and the old trebuchet laungher is still there? Even stuff like the old messaging app is still there. I did the optional step and I even wiped everything using cwm before starting this procedure so how is old data still on the phone?
I flashed twrp image via fastboot but still don't have twrp, neither stock recovery. Any idea what's going on?
Wallpaper, Wi-Fi settings and other things are backed up to your cloud Google account, so they get restored when you sign in. As for the apps, I'm not sure.

Flashed using flashall script without modification. Then set up the system and rebooted to boot loader and flashed recovery.img using flashboot. I restarted the boot loader and went to recovery, I was able to access twrp. Then I rebooted normally to system. Then I went back to boot loader and then tried to goto recovery, did not find twrp.A little more info would probably be beneficial if you want some help. How did you flash the factory image. Manually or with the flash-all script? When flashing twrp, did you boot straight to recovery after flashing, or did you reboot into the system?

Hope this helps, not sure what's going on.

seems like a driver problem, I quess you are using windows?i flashed the factory image and had adb set up .. ran it for few days and rooted it as well .. now when i went to flash twrp recovery my device doesn't show up when i type adb devices .. i tried setting it up again and same problem .. what should i do now
No errors, I checked the MD5 of the factory image and it's fine. I even re-downloaded it. I did every step as listed in your procedure (even the optional ones). The phone is dead now, it's charging. It spent over 20 minutes on the X. Everything seems to work per your instructions. I don't get it. Could something be corrupted on my phone itself? System/Boot/Recovery images are all dated Jan 1/09, but I assume that's correct (it's from Google after all). Should I try directly flashing CWM recovery instead of stock during the initial process? I dunno...
I will try your method from the beginning again tomorrow.
I assume I'm not bricked if I can still do this stuff. It doesn't bode well if you don't know what's wrong either. I appreciate any further help/suggestions...
It's the bootloader.
It happens since the 4.3 leak and the z20i bootloader.
You can try flashing the old z10o bootloader (it boots 4.3 just fine) and then fastboot boot command will work.
It's very annoying because I use to keep the stock recovery and only use CWM or TWRP to root. Now I have to flash a custom recovery, do my thing and reflash the stock one again.
Cheers!
