As the title says really.
I'm using a nexus 5 and elementalx kernel. Also have twrp installed.
You need to download stock MM img from Google source for your nexus device.

this is the feature of stock roms of cyanogenmod devices. It doesnt work on moto e. Devices which have native installed cyanogenmod os like Yureka or Yuphoria cone with stock cyanogen recovery. When updated, the recovery is also updated.
How to flash cyanogen recovery manually without using adb?
Is it safe to load a custom rom in TWRP?
No one seems to talk about this, but if I had paranoid Android would it be safe to install it using TWRP (using root guides)? And if so is there a order to flash (Ex. Rom, kernel, gapps)?

Roms are made on a per device basis. There is no PA Rom for the fire
I'm currently running resurrection remix and I want to update to official cm13. I have not installed the official mm firmware/emui 4.
I know I will have to flash that first, but I need to flash the stock recovery first, right? I'm not sure which firmware version I'm running, so I don't know which version of the stock recovery to flash.
How do I know?

What is the first version you can get? Use that stock recovery.

I recently unlocked the bootloader of my oneplus x to install an ota update 2.2.3 oxygen os which downloaded but failed to install. Then a 1 or 2 days ago i got the marshmallow update (pretty late ikr unlike OP3 and OP2). But, i didn't install a custom recovery because on the oneplus site it was written in the ota installation guide that stock recovery is preferred while installing ota updates manually. So FIRSTLY i would like to ask that can i install a custom rom with an unlocked stock recovery or i need a custom recovery. Secondly, is CYANOGENMOD better than oxygen os or should i continue with oxygen os. Thirdly, do i need to root my phone to install custom rom and recovery? Lastly, is all this worth doing ?
You don't need to unlock bootloader for getting OTA updates.
1. You cannot install custom rom through stock recovery. You have to use custom recovery (with bootloader unlocked )i.e., TWRP by bluespark in oos 3.1.3 or later MM version.
Don't flash this recovery if you are using lollipop oos, for lollipop oos use normal twrp.
2. If you want more customizations, themes and root access then go for cyanogen. But if you want stable, with great camera then go for oos.
Personally i prefer oos over cm because camera quality in cm is not comparable as OOS have.
3. You don't need to root your opx to install roms and custom recovery
4. yeah for me its absolutely worth because i can flash what i want and do more things. ?
You can install oos 3.1.3 through twrp as well as stock recovery.

Yes, just format the data ,cache and system partition using twrp and then flash the miui 9 zip file. Use ZCX twrp to avoid installation errors !
