MHC19J - flash

[bmbm]

Since we have working TWRP for MHC19J build - HERE , I have one question about flashing MHC19J to my Nexus 5x.
Every month I'm flashing security updates this way:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
Reboot to recovery
Flash the latest SuperSU

but in MHC19J build there is also a new bootloader - bootloader-bullhead-bhz10m.img and a new radio - radio-bullhead-m8994f-2.6.31.1.09.img . Do I need to flash this new bootloader and radio too? I assume yes, but I prefer ask first before RMA

Yes. You need to flash the bootloader and radio because they have changed. When in doubt, flash all of them except for user data. I follow Heisenberg's directions (below).

Or you can type in "flash-all.bat" , yes this is less safe , but I have been doing this method since the day I got my Nexus 5X and I have never encountered any issue ever since ! This is the method recommended by google so ... And by the way thank you for posting the link to the new TWRP , I needed this

Won't flash-all also write user data, thereby deleting everything? There's likely a reason that the experts on this forum have never recommended to use flash-all. If you follow Heisenberg's directions, everything will be fine, and you won't lose any data.

Edit: here's something stating that flash-all will erase data unless you modify the command.

I didn't know Heisenberg's method doesn't erase user's data. My bad then ^^

I've flashed the last two updates using flashfire from chainfire. It injects root during the process so twrp is easily installed using flashify. All without using PC (root is of course required for using flashfire)
