How to flash the slimkat without adb or toolkit..

The instruction must wipe data also, so if the rom zip copied earlier will be deleted too.

"    In recovery make a full wipe as per these instructions:
            In TWRP choose advanced in wipe section and wipe dalvik cache, cache, system and data.  "
Can i just copy the zip to a reserved folder without being wiped?

I always in custom rom, so I usually dirty flash only (lazy tongue.gif )
1. download slimkat zip from pc then transfer to phone
2. restart phone in recovery mode
3. flash slimkat zip, Gapps if newer, flash my fav kernel, flash moto x Dalvik+bionic library, then wipe dalvik/cache
4. reboot when all process done.

if something went wrong, redo again from step 2 but add factory reset before flash. << hardly happen....

Long time didnt do this advanced wipe, but if remember correctly, wiping data DOESNT erase your storage. That's mean your folder of music/photos/zip will be safe, as long it's not inside specific apps's folder.

data =/= storage

just wipe normal, don't need to go advanced settings. the normal wipe in TWRP is enough for you to flash another ROM.

Thanks both. icon_rolleyes.gif

Trying now, paranoid mode on. Maybe the reason i chose PA earlier.
About Dalvik+bionic library, not sure what it does but download first. smile.gif

Doesn't matter. Both are just the same. Just don't peel off the protective film. I did that and the outer part scratch up so badly.

Not badly, but noticeable if you see it closely.

Have had my Nexus 5 since early November, using it naked alongside a naked iPhone 5. The Nexus 5 is nice but it's definitely not as durable as the iPhone 5, the glass and back are both noticeably scratched within 1 month while the iPhone was pristine. Don't remember the Nexus 4 being this manja although I hated the Nexus 4 for other reasons.

But the price was cheap and performance is excellent. Battery life is surprisingly good too.

Too slim? It does add the bulkiness though. The back of Neo Hybrid won't expand due to heat right? ohmy.gif
