Can't flash nor boot a custom recovery on my Nexus 4

Hello guys, i've been trying to install a custom recovery on my Nexus 4 but it has been unsuccessful all the time.
The problem is just that I can't get to boot into the custom recovery, When i flash or temporarily boot a custom recovery with fast boot (fastboot flash recovery.IMG or fastboot boot recovery.IMG) it goes without any errors, but the problem comes when its time boot into the recovery, it just stays frozen at the Google screen and then i have to do a battery pull to get out of there.
I hope you can help me guys because i cant even root my phone without a custom recovery. Ive tried rooting using the Nexus roottoolkit but it doesnt work... Apparently my phone also cant boot a custom boot.img because it also stays frozen at the google screen. My phone is unlocked...
Thanks!:laugh:

fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img not fastboot flash recoveryname.img. you have to tell it which partition it goes into.

OK. I just tried that and still nothing it hangs up on the Google screen... But that can't be the problem because booting it temporarily would have worked anyways...

It says failed because i´m already unlocked, and also tried flashing multiple times but it still stays at the google screen...

Are you getting the boot loader screen? You should see the word start in green letters at the top.
If so then you may be flashing the wrong recovery.
If you have the right one try flashing the bootloader

Yes, the bootloader works perfectly... I´m flashing the recovery through there... I don´t think I have the wrong recovery, I downloaded it from clockworkmod.com/rommanager and I have the latest Jelly Bean 4.2.2

Could you try another custom recovery like TWRP. Might be an incomplete or corrupted download as well (Check md5sum before flashing).

I would download it directly from clockworkmod. Google it.
The make sure you put it in the same folder that your fast boot is in. Rename the file to recovery.img
Then at boot loader type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I tried both of your solutions but still nothing, I really don't understand why it doesn't allow custom recoveries :S

Make sure your SDK/ADB is up to date. Older versions have issues with flashing files to the Nexus 4 that can cause your phone to get stuck at boot. If your N4 isn't booting at all, you might want to reflash the entire stock software using the download from Google's Nexus build page, after you've updated your SDK/ADB suite, just to make sure your partition tables haven't gotten messed up.

you could try downloadong the stock rom from google then flashall file.
then try to install the custom recovery after it reset

[Q] Nexus won't boot after update.

Hello,
After updating my Nexus 4 the phone won't boot beyond the Google logo.
I tried to hardreset the phone but when I select "Recovery mode" the phone show me the Google logo and just gets stuck there.
Any ideas?

Reflash everything with fastboot or just enter the stock recovery and factory reset. You can get there by choosing recovery at the bootloader and then by pressing vol up + power when you see the green logo with the exclamation mark.

Flashing went well but when it boots its stuck a the Google logo.
When I try to get it in Recovery mode I only get Download mode.

Try to flash a custom recovery then and see if it works. If it does try flashing the zip from recovery. On my HTC sometimes flashing from fastboot would result in a bootloop while from recovery it worked perfectly fine.

KDZs are factory firmware files, untouched.

Is it possible to root? Bootloader remains unlocked?

Bootloader can be unlocked. No word on root yet

Do you have to have stock recovery to used the kdz file

I'll wait for the rooted stock version, but I'm sure we'll be seeing it this week!

You need to use LGUP for flashing KDZ:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803

First of all, flashing this KDZ will re-lock the bootloader. It is important to know because if you want unlocked bootloader, you need to execute "fastboot oem unlock" which will wipe all user data.
Secondly, I am surprised to see that TWRP is no longer working after MM update:
Code:
O:\LG\H901>fastboot boot twrp-2.8.7.1-h901.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.732s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.749s
Same error if I try to flash TWRP as well. Did somebody successfully manage to root this version?
Edit: I've also tried with latest TWRP available from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10/development/recovery-updated-twrp-v3-0-1-0-t3350825
Maybe we need a newer build of TWRP based on MM sources?

i got that same error when trying to fastboot boot TWRP. however, i then realized that my bootloader had been relocked. i assume you re-unlocked yours tho. i have tons of Google Play music downloaded for offline listening, so i'm trying to see if i can back that up before unlocking.
edit: moving google music to sdcard, will unlock and give it a try later on

BadNews: I hate to be the one to tell you all this, But LG locked some of the fastboot commands... It has nothing to do with TWRP..
you all gota understand that twrp has its own kernel regrdless of what rom you run............. So ROM and Recovery dont tie into eather other..
Nexus 7 did this same thing some time ago.. the fastboot commands are locked up.. LG did the same on the G3 when we figured out how to get around the download mode.........
anyhow, if you even use< fastboot continue >
you will get same error:
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot continue
resuming boot...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.018s
So now, we are all should I say, F----d Up............. I even use my G3 rooting knowledge to gain root... But that method failed tooo, and it uses the download mode come port way..
seems LG though of everything this time around........ But you can count on one thing,, WE WILL HAVE ROOT again.................
We have something the other devices dont have.,. We can unlock our bootloaders.. So, we just gota wait a bit.....................

That's bad, real bad.
The first thing most of us will want to know here is if downgrade to 5.1.1 is safe? If yes, which build? I don't think we have many options there.
For rooting, can we try opening the LG Com port using the old 9% method? Maybe then we can try flashing a root injected system image? I am away from PC so can't try this right now. Won't be asking otherwise.

I will wait for a flashable zip. And hope it will have root. Or maybe stick with the Korean Mm port
Sent from my LG-H901 using XDA-Developers mobile app

Yep. Flashable zip is the way to go for now (if it somehow becomes available). I am not sure how to read system dump from a locked-down device and create a Flashable zip.
I will try downgrading to 5.1.1 in the morning.
Just wondering, why allow bootloader unlock if LG and T-Mobile want to lock down everything else?

No relock anything. No risk to hard brick. If you flash down to 711 and then OTA update,it will. No need adb and fastboot install. Install usb and motorola driver

thanks for the quick answer. no relock, so if something go wrong i would still be able to flash some custom and rsolve the issue , right ?

Hi, at the end of the batch say
fastboot erase carrier

So all data will be erased ?
BTW, I ran the process and the phone went back to encrypted mode again, TWRP is not working any more and root access is gone..Any way to revert back ?

extract ROM ,extract file attack ,put all to the same folder, (hold power + volume down to get into bootloader mode) and run file: retail_AS_800.bat ( no need to run commands)
Done.
