General rooting - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I'm fully rooted and I'm using CWM, I'm Used to to all the flashing mods and so on, but I try and flash a ROM and I'm only getting to the ROMs boot logo, can someone shed some light on this for me

If your flashing from stock clear data/factory reset and clear cache that should work.

What exactly does this have to do with rooting?

Yep don't forget and if your going from one ROM to another you don't need to wipe data (most of the time) example from cm 10.1 to aokp unless the dev otherwise state you should

At&t CM10 Official Jelly Bean Rom out now

Cyanogen posted a official thread in development section with the rom for AT&T and Sprint.Everything seems stable for the most part. We can use this thread to talk about the Rom so we don't clutter the development thread. If cyanogen or any member makes a thread this one can be erased or merged.
Update find all the latest builds here.

Edit:7/20/2012
Cyanogen updates Rom fixes camera and retains root after flash. Super user zip is no longer needed. Fixes mtp and a couple other things. Pretty much a stable from.
Here are the jellybean gapps thanks to: gharris

I Flashed this superuser after gapps and kept root.

RIGHT!
Stock runs so well; I've been like - dang I'm getting 2-3 days of battery. Battery was the MAIN issue I rooted my Epic 4G.
Though CM10 - this is another matter all together; I ran CM9 it was really nice (though battery was a major issue). Very interested in CM10

What chance is there that CM10 will eventually come to the Verizon version? Is development for the Verizon version going to be poor?

It will come. Phones are really not that much different. And u can get unlocked bootloader from Samsung.

The only way I could think it might be possible is if you didn't have to wipe data before flashing, but I don't know of any ROM's that don't require that in a jump.
you don't have wipe before, you can wipe after.

no, youll only lose your user data. if you only wipe data/factory reset, your storage wont get touched. no need to wipe anything else. wipe data, reflash the rom, gapps, and trinity kernel, then you should be fine. whenever you flash a new rom(not an update to the same rom), you want to wipe data/factory reset.
Just needed to factory rest, thanks guys

You really should give more information. The main being what version of twrp you tried to use.
I'm going to assume you tried 2.6.3.2 which will not flash 4.4 Roms. You need to download the 2.6.3.3 or latter tarp zip and flash it in recovery.
If my assumption is wrong then my apologies and I have no idea what the issue may be aside from maybe a bad IMG was pushed.

So all you need to do then is update it by flashing the appropriate zip you want to use.
