How to flash Nexus 4 with Lollypop factory Image
I am quite thrilled to write this how to article as I have successfully flashed my Nexus 4 device to Android 5 (LollyPop) successfully.
Here are the steps to flash the Android factory Image:
Download the factory image for Nexus device: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Extract all the contents of the occam-lrx21t-factory-51cee750.tgz into a folder.
Download the Android SDK: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html?hl=i
Flash the Image files;
You need to be i n fastboot (power off the device. Press the Volume Down + Volume Up & Power button)
On you windows machine, copy the contents from the factory images in to (C:\Users\XXXXXAppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools) which where Android SDK kit was installed. The contents of the folder should look like;
On the Command Prompt type "Flash-all.bat" should take care of the flashing. Have a cup of coffee and come back in 20 minutes. Your Nexus 4 should have lollypop treat for you.
Then just wait a long time for the flash to happen, the device to reboot, and for your new version of Android to boot. The first boot can take a very long time, so be patient.
