Hello..
I'm on 4.4.2 and I have a stock NC5 ROM, only ROOTED by Towelroot so I don't really have a recovery or anything.
I want the Lollipop OC1, I know that it has no root I just want to know where to start? do I just flash it through ODIN? Thank you.!!!

You can't flash AOSP roms on MK2/Safestrap, only TW (TouchWiz) based roms matching your current stock version (4.3).
thanks Oishi,
Can I flash back to an older stock rom that is not safestrap?

No, once you're on Stock MK2 you're locked to MK2 and have no other options than safestrap.

Here is a somewhat current list of compatible SS Roms
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630040
Also check page 1 in the Android Development section; There are a few new ones that look tempting such as BajaRom for TW
Check out Eclipse 3.0 for an AOSP feel with TW compatibility.

Read and re-read the instructions in this OP here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726868
It will get you on the leaked pre-rooted NC2 KitKat for now.
You will first have to upgrade to MJ7 or MK2 - root & install Safestrap 3.71 for starters.
Hi,
I had nc5, but wanted the hyperdrive rls16 4.4.2..and i got it..but then i lost my root access. i downgraded my NC5 OTA to mk2 then rooted and flashed the pre-rooted nc5. after that I flashed hyperdrives rls16, but lost my root access?? how should i go about this? should i downgrade AGAIN, root the mk2, then flash the hyperdrive rom without the pre-rooted nc5 upgrade??
i pretty much used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2763834 before i flashed the hyperdrive rls16..did i do something wrong?
thanks,
yungcat

You have to flash Superuser right after you flash Huperdrive. Before you reboot.

So do I have to re downgrade then upgrade again or can I just flash superuser?
yes
to answer your question yes. you need to downgrade again. check out my up and downgrade method thread (all 1 file up or downgrades simply the best and easiest/safest way to upgrade or downgrade and for both new and old bootloaders) and tips for ROMs the next time you flash Hyperdrive, gDux, Foxhound or any other 4.4.2 ROM you need to flash a SuperSu194.zip(find that in my thread as well) before your first restart. So always opt out of the question whether you want to restart during final stage of any aroma install.

There is no way at this time (and may never be) to install a custom recovery whether it is CWM or TWRP on bootloaders newer than MDK. You can root these phones but that's about it. Look into running safestrap if you want to run a custom rom (TW based only).

No, however there is SafeStrap. This would be your best bet for custom roms for the time being, granted they must be compatible. They are still working on SS so keep an eye one it as they are trying to make it so you can flash any rom.
I had my Z3v rooted on 4.4.4. but once I flashed 5.0.2. I realized I didn't do the pre rooted version. Anyway to Root the non pre rooted 5.0.2?
Thank in advance!

I don't think... so downgrade back to 4.4.4 root it then flash pre-rooted 509 firmware it's available in z3v Android Development.

no, you will have to flash back to 4.4.4, re-root, install recovery and flash the pre-rooted lollipop zip.
Am I able to keep my data? Its so annoying to redownload everything. I know there is an option on flashtool to keep your data but some people say it can corrupt things.
