Fair enough, but I couldn't find an equally comprehensive guide with TWRP, and I'm not sure if TWRP automatically corrects for the "stock rom wants to overwrite recovery" issue.
His version is 6.0.0.6 (step 12).
You fail at tittles!!!! Nexus 7 could mean anything. Please no one help the OP till he fixes the tittle.

I had a few problems. First installed superuser by mistake and it didn't work.
I then installed superSU using the temporary recovery option which worked fine but I couldn't boot into recovery afterwards so I went back and installed TWRP recovery and now everything is good.

Do you have access to fastboot?
Download TWRP, then reboot into the boot loader, and do
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery image>
Then start recovery on your device, and flash SuperSU. Profit
Sorted it. Thanks guys.

I managed to have root access on 4.2 by using Nexus Root Toolkit. Set the device type to "Nakasi: Android *.*.* Any Build"

So you have no backup or another file you can flash? If not, install drivers...
This also belongs in QA.

Install correct drivers and flash stock rom with adb. Else use the toolkit.

We can't debug your windows pc... Fast boot drivers can/will install fine. Try another computer and see if the toolkit will get you going.
Edit: all you need to do is read, read the stickies and read tutorials on how to return to stock. The drivers will install without being inside Android

Remove the current n4 drivers with device manager in windows. Then find the proper drivers here on xda in the n4 general section. After that you should be able to use the toolkit to boot to recovery or flash a stock build.

i managed to install the drivers. Now im downloading the stock image and i'll flash it with the toolkit

I know why it went into bootloop. To flash other kernals aside frmo Francos...you need to flash stock boot image. Francos kernal has you flash his boot image in order to flash his kernal. I dont know why this is the case on the nexus 4, maybe because he is building blindly without a nexus 4 present with him.
The Gnexus wasnt like this but.....thats why you went into boot loop. I just skimmed his thread and found out your case was due to the above.

Franco uses his own ram disk. Other kernels do not. This is why you need to flash back to stock first.

There's a modified boot.img? I don't think so... To root, all you need is a custom recovery. I also wouldn't use the toolkit. At this step, it's just as easy to do it manually. Just type in with your device in fastboot and connected to a PC: "fastboot flash recovery name of recovery.img"

As far as I know there is only these two threads about dual-boot...
You can't dual boot but if your rooted you can make a nandroid backup using cwm twrp recovery. People have confirmed that when you restore the nandroid after flashing Ubuntu everything works fine

When one boots into recovery isn't that another os? It's seems like we have duel boot, booting between the two. It wouldn't be worth sacrificing recovery but it would be neat to reboot into another os instead.

Yes that would be neat. Remove recovery for another full OS. It might be possible idk you would have to do a lot of mods but it just might work

As far as i know, recovery is another partition. Also if by some chance this were possible, dont you ever want to flash anything else again ?

I want to fix it via recovery mode. Sadly, my volume key was broken:crying:
Does anybody knows how can I boot my nexus 4 without using volume key? (it was stuck in the custom rom logo.)
Is it an other way that is possible to fix my phone?
