Hi
Basically I am new to android. I rooted by nexus 4 yesterday and installed CM 10.1 successfully. But I had some issue with the security settings so I tried to flash the system.img as per the instructions in one of the forum. But flashing didn't complete fully. Now my nexus 4 boots up only till the nexus logo and the logo keeps glowing. clockwork recovery works fine.But unfortunately i deleted the CM 10.1 zip file from the mobile after i installed it. Is there anyway i can push the rom into the mobile. Or is there any recovery option?? Please help
thanks.
Its a lot of flashing but you could restore your nandroid redownload the rom and reflash it

how to restore nandroid?
Wipe cache and dalvik cache through cwm
He is assuming you made a nandroid backup of your original ROM. Did you? You could also boot in to recovery and perform a factory data reset.
Yes im assuming because thats the first thing you do before flashing lol

Try the side load option with adb and cwm only thing I can think of

Thank you. I used the "install from side load" option and pushed the CM 10.1 zip file into the mobile. Now I am using AOKP rom.

Okay so like many of you cwm isn't sticking and when I go into recovery I just have the Google logo, I want to flash ROMs so installed ROM manger and found that if you boot into recovery through that app you can get into cwm.
Would like some advice on which is the best and safest method you have used! Thanks

My cwm didn't stick and when I manually go into recovery it hangs on the boot screen. ROM manager seems to work

i assume so, since i use it over and over and over again. anyways, theres a file you have to remove or rename in the /system/ fs that causes the recovery to not stick. most custom roms already have it removed, stock rom you have to remove it. the file is recovery-from-boot.p, rename it or remove it and your recovery will stick(at least twrp, cwm should also).

Flash twrp, then find a zip file with the recovery you want and flash that? Or buy flash image GUI from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.flashimagegui sounds like that does what you're looking for

Alright I'm doing something wrong. I'm coming from stock with Franco kernel. I wipe system, cache/devik. Then I flash Q rom/Ras gapps, der kernel trinity four. I think this is the trinity that's mentioned in the post.
Well when I'm done I get a boot loop.
Were did I go wrong?

Did you wipe data/factory data reset?

No I'm guessing that's the issue? Will I lose my back twrp back up?

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
Under kernel info I get dirty-morfic, is that trinity?

Hi everyone, so my nexus 10 was working great about an hour ago. I'm rooted, I have CWM Recovery, I was running CM 10.2 and I wanted to try out CM 11.... So I downloaded the zip file, wiped my data, wiped cache and dalvik cache, went to install the update and got an error 7 and install aborted. So then I went to install my backup that I had just created and.... Md5 mismatch. I can't boot past the Google except for into CWM. I'm at a loss, what should I do?! I only have a mac computer and when I plugged it in, the computer wouldn't recognize it. Please help!!!!! Thanks.

Best advice I can give is to find a friend who has a Windoze system and use the Wugfresh toolkit to re-flash factory stock from fastboot:

I found a toolkit for Mac, got her up and running. Just installed CWM again and going to root now. Thanks everyone.

If it fails just download cm11 on the computer and adb sideload the ROM.

I'm running Slim kat 4.4 ROM and everything is fine with the actual ROM but I've no idea what has happened because I cannot boot into TWRP or CWM via ROM manager, uninstalled and reinstalled ROM manager but no luck, it just stays at the Google screen and I have to hold power button and volume down button to restart, tried to boot into recovery that way but again it just stays at the Google screen.
What could possibly be wrong here as It was fine last week and I dont recall flashing anything else.

Anyone have any ideas asides from having to perform a factory reset

Ya it sounds like you need to flash recovery again
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks but how can I do that, can I use flashify, and can someone kindly point me to the link I need to flash.
I've no idea how this happened, is it something to do with android 4.4,ROM manager usually works fine and I nearly always use TWRP.

Thanks, I don't have access to a PC so will have to wait till the weekend

So after much searching I managed to finally get it sorted.
Download the latest TWRP image and upload it to Dropbox and flash it with the flashify app and it booted into TWRP and just restarted.
Phew that's a relief

Just use the "recovery tools" app from Google play.
