thank you for giving me advice but i've tried this many times my nexus still shows unknown baseband version and imei
I had this happened to me before, but because I flashed a radio wrong. Your best bet is to download a radio here in the Nexus 4 collection of radios and flash it via fastboot. What radio version do you have?

I've never seen "hard reset" from recovery, just stuff like factory reset (which all it does is wipes /data and /cache, but not the /data/media portion), and then the usual things like wipe /system etc.

A hard reset would include a factory reset and wiping system.

K, not everyone knows that (I mean I would know what it would entail, but if someone pops up say TWRP they're not going to see "hard reset")
So for reference in this case hard reset is :
wipe the following
/system
/cache
/data
If you *really* want to clean up that data partition (warning it will remove all your /sdcard stuff, but rom-wise you can use adb to push back up some zips so you can re-install an OS), you would use the "Format Data" option which will reformat the whole partition including the /data/media area.
Thank you all
I have already done hard reset in the recovery
But it didn't work
i also reflashed my radio(48 and 54)
I can see my baseband version at fastboot mode but i still got unknown baseband and imei at settings

Sounds like the efs data has been deleted..unless you have a backup, you're in trouble and then easiest way to resolve it is to RMA the device.

I would reflash a factory image including user data. EFS is most likely not accessible instead of beeing wiped.

Not sure bout a hard reset. When i got my phone, this was already preinstalled. Your phone might think its a system app and not clear after a hard reset.

By the way, is there any difference between a factory reset done via the settings menu and the hard reset done by booting into the special menu?

All Nexus Ss come with Google Books preinstalled after the 2.3.1 or 2.3.2 ota. So nothing can remove it unless you root. Why so annoyed by it? you never noticed it being installed on the phone before and it doesn't take any resources if you disable books syncing from Accounts and Sync under the system settings.

Pretty sure it's still the same as it use to be
Soft reset is like rebooting
Hard reset is like unplugging something while its on( removing battery without turning phone off first).
Factory rest wipes it to stock, or original rom that you may have flashed. All setting revert to default.
Don't quote me though

Actually, I wanted to know if there is any difference between the two methods of performing a factory reset -
1. Settings> Privacy> Factory Data Reset
2. Power off phone. Power on while pressing the volume up button. And then reset.
Does the latter method perform a "deeper" reset?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
Its a preference thing.
If I'm on stock, prolly do it through settings.
Or through bootloader if i can't get it to boot.
If rooted and unlocked and custom rom, i do it through recovery. Cause i can flash and clear stuff in 1 shot.

I want to "root" my phone only for the purpose of getting rid of some pre-installed stuff. I do not want to have a custon ROM, at least not now.
I've seen this thread which explains rooting the Nexus S, giving 4 steps in which to do it.
At what step can I stop if I want just a simple root as stated above? Or will I have to go through the whole process?
Will the procedure erase anything from my phone? If yes, how do I backup?
I believe both reset methods do the same thing, which is format the /data partition (and maybe a bit more?).

As the title says... i just formated my ****ing whole system
wanted to change roms and used this crazy complete cleanup script
didnt know that it would format EVERYTHING
so now im standing here with a phone with only a twrp recovery... no system no backups ... nothing
i somehow need to push a rom to my device and install it
problem is im totally blank when it comes to these adb shell things
could someone give me an advice how to get a file to my phone?
nexus toolkit doesnt work
So, assuming you can mount to your computer, download a ROM. Try the chemistry ROM? Or the stock rooted one. Whichever. Got to recovery, find the ROM and install it.
This is assuming you can mount with twrp. (Its in mounts)
In front of a live studio audience
If it won't mount, use adb to push the zip(s) to your internal storage.
it does not mount... and i somehow cant get adb to work
Try adb side load in twrp
Edit: its in the advanced menu.

Wow. Worst advice ever.
Next time, do a factory reset and wipe system. That'll do you and keep you from having those little issues that are caused by doing dirty flashes. Sometimes they work just fine. Others, they give you hell. It's one thing if you're upgrading between builds of the same ROM. Even then, though, it's a risk.

On what? If I wipe data on TWRP I lose everything on SD. Wiping system wipes the system partition. There are many reasons I don't use CWM, poor backup locations and inefficient menu layouts are among them. If wiping system wipes the SD, I'll add that to the list.
TWRP all the way! Way better than CWM in my opinion.

Agreed. I would sacrifice an infant to get 4EXT Recovery Touch on thus baby. It has a "Format all partitions (except SD card)" option that is amazeballs.
ive done this before. to fix it you need to download the stock google nexus 4 image. google has taken it down from its webste but there are people here in the forums who have uploaded it to help and have other people download it.
now download and install the nexus 4 root tool kit
to fix your phone your are going to put your phone into fastboot mode and connect it to your pc.
then open up the nexus 4 root tool kit program.
next find the google nexus 4 toolkit folder and go into it. (mine saved in my local disk C)
go into the "put google factory image here" folder and drop the google factory image in there.
once thats done go back into the nexus 4 root toolkit program and press number 9 (download, Extract + flash Facotry image"
since you already downloaded it and put it in the factory image folder you're going to click option number 2 (flash google image)
then type yes and let it do its thing
make sure that the factory image that you download is in a .tgz or .tar file or else it wont work
I hope that helps!!!!
Here's the deal. I want to factory reset my nexus so I can remove the unlock pin. Question is I can't seem to really get an answer. If I do the factory data reset from the menu will I lose my data from the emulated SD card. According to the picture. I will, but I looked this up and according to some website and other xda members. I won't. Since I've only had this phone for about a month now and this is the first phone that I've had with a SD slot. I honestly don't know what will happen if I hit that reset button.

Back up your storage to a computer and see what happens. They only way I've been able to erase my data was formatting in recovery or locking then unlocking the bootloader.

Yes a factory reset will wipe all user data on the phone if done from settings/backup and restore/reset device. Backup files first.
The nexus 4 doesn't have an SD card slot. You will lose all data unless you've made a backup in recovery or on your computer. And yes, it will wipe the /sdcard folder.

Just go to security settings and choose a different lock style !!! Unless you have forgot your pin ??
What recovery are you using ?
I have no issues doing.........
Go to settings and backup and reset option, choose the factory data reset.
Now this will wipe your user data and reset your ROM to how it was originally. This does NOT touch your emulated sdcard partition. Basically it resets the ROM and removes all user apps etc.
You can always use TB to back up all user apps 1st then just restore again after. ( obviously you will have to install TB again before you can restore but all data will remain on your " sdcard".
Hope this helps.
Mmmmm actually I am using twrp so maybe I got mistaken as I don't know how it handles on a stock recovery as it does boot into twrp briefly when I do this.
I've done this many times and never lost my sdcard files though.

A factory reset will NOT cause you to lose root.
Using googles factory images you can do a full reset to stock including system. Its like a new device except it doesn't change the bootloader status.

I don't think Google has released factory images yet (for this model) on the developer website. They weren't there last time I checked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2381582

Those will get you to the equivalent of or close to factory (one of them is pre-rooted), which may be all the OP wants to do.
However they aren't technically Google's factory images.

Reflash 4.3 and wait for the installation to finish. If it gets stuck on "Android is upgrading" just restart the phone. This time use THIS toolkit. it has always worked for me.

I too had this problem with my Nexus 4. I flashed the factory image (I tried with Android 4.2 and 4.3) with fastboot and I got exactly the same errors as you. I finally sent back my device to Google, the new one should arrive next week. I have no idea what can cause this problem :/
This thread is old, but if you have a problem with booting, you don't have to go unlocking bootloader and flashing anything if it can be fixed by just going into stock recovery and wiping cache or factory reset (you will lose apps data, but not data in your phone storage.)
Hold Power + Volume Down when the phone is off to go into "fastboot mode". Then use the Volume keys to navigate to Recovery. In there, press some combination of buttons of Volume and Power to bring up the menu (I forgot what the combination is, just fiddle around), then you can wipe cache or factory reset.
If even factory reseting doesn't help, you might need to unlock bootloader and flash factory firmware, but if you unlock the bootloader it will wipe the phone entirely and you will lose all your data. You can try to boot the phone and connect it to your PC, even if it doesn't boot fully there might be a chance MTP is loaded so you can copy files off.

You should do a factory reset in recovery before flashing. Follow the instruction here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312, and make sure you use the correct firmware image when flashing it.
