You have wiped your ROM, that's why it won't boot. You need to flash a new ROM now. Can you get into the bootloader/recovery?

After you flash the mako image you need to boot into recovery and clear cache/factory reset. Then it will boot past the X.

Do a data/factory reset in recovery and it should reboot.

[Q] Stuck at nexus logo, and more.

After i rooted/unlocked my phone I booted it up and it got stuck on the nexus splash screen. I did find a solution to the problem which was to put it back to factory settings. alright, great, problem solved, but when i go to do the reset i come across errors as seen in the picture. Anyone know how to fix?
I had that issue when downloading the file through the toolkit. I went and manually got the images from google, placed them in the correct folder within the kit and flashed successfully.

dont use a toolkit. do it manually like what ^^ said
I recommend flash SuperSu zip file via CWM Recovery.
It's totally easy and safe.
I had this issue. Factory reset/clear caches should fix it.

factory resetting clears your cache, as well as dalvik cache.
Not sure what I did wrong.
Backed up phone
unlocked phone
downloaded CWM
put SU on phone
went into put loader and flashed ( I think ) CWM
then when I go into recover mode the phone gets stuck on google logo.
Cleared cache etc. but nada.
Downloading factory image now....on a very slow connection and will take 3 hours. Any way around this? What are my options.
I'm totally stuck here too. I have the exact same as the OP.
I've manually placed the stock image in the folder structure. It's starts to do stuff, reboots and then the toolkit says Waiting for Device (forever).
Nothing happens after this.
This all occurred while I was installing my Google Apps. I stupidly installed Chainfire3D, and installed the drivers. It restarted and this never ending cycle happened. I only read that they weren't compatible with ICS or Jellybean afterwards
Any help is greatly appreciated. :crying:
Hi guys

There is a file contain in the factory image download called flash-all.bat Double click on this file while your phone is connected in bootloader mode and it should automatically flash the stock image for you
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
i also have this problem.
I tried to flash stock factory image with the .bat file but no success. I am stuck at the nexus bootlogo...
Can still enter recovery and fastboot.
Edit:
solved my problem. I went to CWM Recovery, and checked in "mounts and storage" that none of the partitions were mounted. Cache was mounted in my case. I unmounted Cache and rebooted.
Phone boots fine now!

[HELP] NEXUS 4 won't start after clearing cache

Hello all,

Use ADB to push the ROM to your phones SD card, and reflash it. Theres lots of tutorials here on setting up, and using ADB.
Hey thanks ScumDroid....I used sideload option in NEXUS 4 tool kit and pushed the paranoid rom into card again and flashed it.

Did you try wiping cache
From my BLACKED OUT N4
I actually have the same problem. I had root, but I wasn't using a custom recovery. The OTA appeared as available in the notifications so I chose to install it. I set it aside and it appeared to install, but when it went to boot up, it got stuck on the X animation. I left it there while I tried to research the issue, but after 20 minutes of looking at the X I tried doing a factory reset with the stock recovery. It said it succeeded, so I rebooted. I've now been looking at the X animation for 7 minutes.

After the update mine was stuck on the loading screen for a while, maybe a half hour. Gave up on that, did a factory reset from the recovery menus, but it still won't start up.
Any suggestions?

Try reflashing, maybe something went wrong during the flash.

You use the stock recovery to clear cache, format I think is what recovery says, if that doesn't work then you have to do a factory reset weather you want to or not. This worked for me.
This is from efrant's guide to flashing in general section:
Note that some users indicate that they can't get past the X on boot. If this happens to you, reboot into the bootloader and select recovery. Then, when you see the Android with the red exclamation mark, hold power and press volume up to take you to the menu. Wipe cache. If that still doesn't work, boot back into recovery and do a factory reset.
If you have a 16GB device, and it now shows up as 8GB, reboot into recovery (hold power and press volume up when you are at the screen with the android and the red exclamation mark), and wipe cache. If that still doesn't work, boot back into recovery and do a factory reset. Or do this.

Looks like a factory reset is the only viable option. What is the best way to back everything up, if I cannot boot into OS?
Folks,
After trying a lot of option, I did a full restore flashing the entire 4.3 new image.
Worked, but lost everything on the phone.

You can backup data using adb, its a simple command to copy the internal storage but I'm not sure what the exact command is as I never had to use it.
I flashed 4.3 following efrant's guide, no dice. I tried erasing boot/recovery and formatting cache/system/userdata and then doing so again, no dice. I did a factory reset and then flashed using flash-all.sh, no dice. It hangs on X animation. I've been letting it go for 5+ minutes each time, should I be waiting longer? Is there something else I can try?

My 'phone couldn't get past the X so I followed the above. Wiping the cache didn't work so I chose wipe data/factory reset, answered yes to delete all user data and the screen showed "Wiping data ... Formatting /data ... Data wipe complete". The menu then returns with reboot system now highlighted. What's supposed to happen next?
If I choose reboot system now, the 'phone just reboots to the bootloader. If I choose wipe data/factory reset, the data is wiped again and the menu returns again, same as before. If I do nothing, nothing happens, at least according to the screen. What am I missing?
I was able to use flash-all.sh in 4.2.2 and it booted fine. I tried the ota again and same issue. Some apps autoinstalled when I installed 4.2.2, so I guess I can re-flash 4.2.2, make sure no apps download, then try the OTA again, but I'm not sure what else I can try to get 4.3 to install.
Yeah I also had the same problem. Tried to apply OTA from rooted stock. I flashed 4.2.2 via fastboot without wiping user data and got it to start in 4.2.2 again. Backed up all the important files and app data with Titanium, factory reset and then flashed 4.3. Rooted and then restored all the app data. Had a small issue with the r/w permission on some of the folders that affected the Gallery app not being able to work properly but did a fix and it all works fine now.

No that's not it. I saw a tutorial somewhere on how to backup the Nexus 4 using adb but I can't find it. Someone in here knows how to do it and/or there is already a thread on it.
it would be something like --- adb pull all storage/emulated/0 --- to get all your data off the sdcard but I'm not sure of the syntax I used plus you need to designate where to put the data you just pulled. I only looked at the how to once and very briefly as I didn't need to use it. I'm not sure how you backup user data but you would need to pull the image off the device.
I have most of my data backed up to either Google or in my Box account using Helium backup so I don't care about losing any doing a factory restore so I have no need to know how to do an adb backup.

This isn't the guide I saw before but I think it will work. I cut out the relevant section from the article.
http://www.dotkam.com/2013/01/16/backup-and-reset-nexus-4-cracked-and-locked-screen/
One thing I knew I could do for sure is to backup the “sdcard”. I knew this because of two things: I have “USB Debugging” on, which means I can use adb, and “sdcard” is not owned by root, which means it can be “pulled”/”read” by adb. Hence the first step is clear:
./adb pull /sdcard/ /destination
At this point all the pictures / videos / music, etc.. are backed up. Now I need to backup my SMS, contacts, etc.. Information that lives in Android “databases”. For example contacts usually live here “/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases”. Which can’t be simply “pulled” as pitures, since they are protected, and hence cannot be read by adb directly.

I found this thread in the galaxy nexus forum and maybe it will work, it was using syntax similar to what you posted.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420351
So I have tried many things to flash 4.3, but none have worked. Flashing 4.2.2 works and it's how I recover from getting stuck on the nexus boot screen which happens whenever I flash 4.3.
I have tried:
Simple OTA. Performed when I had root and also from fresh 4.2.2 install.
Flash using fastboot and all .img files separately, wiping the cache afterwards.
Flash using flash-all.sh script included with the factory image.
I have tried doing the above wiping cache before/after and doing a factory reset before/after. The MD5 checksum of the .tgz is correct, so the file downloaded correctly. However, all roads lead to being stuck on the "X" animation during boot up. I always allow 5+ minutes for it to progress beyond, but it hasn't.

[Q] Nexus 4 problems.

I'm having a big problem with my Nexus 4 here lately. I tried to root it about 2 days ago, and it did not work. So i downloaded TWRP and my computer read it the same as the Nexus 4 root toolkit by WugFresh. I opened TWRP and it asked me to flash or boot (it was on flash), and i think i clicked "Recovery" and it made my Nexus not boot up, it was just at the logo screen. Then i tried to flash TWRP to the bootloader and System and it flashed TWRP, now it won't go into android. It just takes me into the TWRP interface. In the TRWP interface there are 8 options( Install, Wipe, Backup, Restore, Mount, Settings, Advanced, and Reboot). I pressed "Reboot" and i when press System, Recovery, or Bootloader it tells me that the is no OS installed, I've looked up how to install OS back via WugFresh's toolkit, but it's still not working (maybe because I'm on a old computer). So I'm kinda panicking, is there anyone i can call,or take my phone to, or can you guys help PLEASE!?!
1. Calm down, dont panic. Its an easy fix. You need to push a rom onto your phone using adb, then flash it using twrp.
2. Setup adb.
3. Download ROM: here or here.
4. Use this command to copy the rom to the phone:
Code:
adb push nameofROM.zip /sdcard
5. In TWRP go to Install, look for the rom you pushed, select it, and finally swipe to flash it.
Okay, i'll try that right now..

Thats the stock recovery, but since you have TWRP installed that is your current recovery. So go into TWRP and use the command from there.

On the first boot after flashing a new ROM the Nexus should start up within 5 to 10 minutes. If the phone is still displaying the boot animation, reboot into the phone into TWRP recovery, select Wipe, select Factory Reset, wipe Cache and Dalvik cache, and reboot the phone.

Thanks! I think it was just the ROM i chose. I just downloaded Slim Bean, this seems to be working( the startup screen looks cool ) I'm on the "Android is upgrading..." screen and it says "Starting apps." at the moment.
Okay, SlimBean took more than 10 minutes, so i factory reset and tried again, and it's still not booting up. ):

I have not used Slim Bean. It sounds as though you got past the boot animation screen to Slim Bean updating apps (Android upgrading). Normally ROMs that update apps on startup display a count as they update. Does Slim Bean display such an update counter? Does the count progress or does it hang at some point? Note that the system update on startup will take additional time depending on the quality of your phone's network connection. If you are still experiencing issues with Slim Bean, I recommend that you post on the developers forum where you downloaded the ROM.

It is certainly more convenient to replace the stock recovery with TWRP permanently since this gives you more freedom when installing ROMs and performing nandroid backups.
I would try booting into TWRP again, install the Slim Bean ROM one more time, install Gapps, wipe Cache and Dalvik cache, and reboot your phone. If the Nexus gets past the boot animation to "Android upgrading" allow the upgrade to complete. If you are still having problems with Slim Bean, I suggest posting your question in the Slim Bean thread in the developers forum.

Hi,
I tried out ubuntu touch and wanted to revert to stock before flashing cm (because I havn't had a rom on my storage).
After flashing the stock image via fastboot (using that flash-all.sh included in official download) my nexus stucks at boot animation.
Then I flashed recovery (I tried both, CWM and TWRP) and tried to do a factory reset -> unable to mount internal storage, also the space of my internal storage was 0MB (obviously because it can't mount anything), so it exited with an error. Then I formatted just every partion in CWM and I was able to mount again, flashed stock image ... stuck at boot animation. Tried flashing cm via sideload... stuck at boot animation.
Google didn't helped me.
Does somebody know what to do now?
Thanks

you should only have to clear the cache...factory reset shouldn't be necessary. Remember if you do have to do a factory reset, it will wipe all your storage completely if you use stock recovery to do it. Don't forget to back everything up first!

I already made backups, but anyway, they wouldn't help me in any way, if I don't have a working phone..

Boot into fastboot mode. Then from your pc with your device hooked up via usb type fastboot boot recovery. See if that will get you into recovery
Sent from my Nexus 5
It says 'cannot load 'recovery'' and also, I tried flashing ubuntu touch again and it worked.
Edit:
I think it has something to do with my /data partition. It said unable to mount /data again. After fixing that (for some reason it works if I select "format /data and /data/media (/sdcard)" (CWM) I can also format /data. But there a difference between that an all other partitions: for every other partition its like that: mount -> format -> unmount, but for /data it just don't do the last step, it stays mounted.
No on an idea? Do I need to send it in?
Try downloading The Root Toolkit Here.
Connect your phone, open the toolkit. On The First Page select "Soft-Bricked/Bootloop" and Flash Stock+Unroot.
This should Help.
Yeeeeeeey, I have no idea what the tool did, but it works now
Thank you for the tip
