Soft bricked? (solved) - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
I was installing latest Build of PA rom, I downloaded it from someone's mirror, I went to twrp then wiped data, system, cache, dalvik and usb otg. Wipe failed.. Then I noticed I by mistake selected usb otg, I deselected it and wiped again and it was successful. Then i went to install and installed rom then installed gapps and then kernel (martix) and rebooted phone. It was stuck on google logo. I went to fastboot mode and then into recovery then wiped and installed previous build but I'm still stuck to boot logo (google) Now I want to know if I can recover my data from internal storage somehow in twrp or fastboot mode.. or I can unbrick device without loosing any data of mine..
Any help would be appreciate thanks..

Stuck on "DUAL CORE" after flashing DarkSide PreFinal

Hey guys,
I've tried to flash DarkSide preFinal on my Atrix, now the phone is stuck on "Unlocked, Dual Core"-Screen.
Here's what I did:
Downloaded latest DarkSide and saved it to internal SD
Factory Reset via Recovery Console
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flashed the zip file
the process seemed to go through just fine, now when I'm trying to boot the phone it is stuck at the "Dual Core"-screen
Any ideas on how to solve this? I tried to factory-reset and wipe several times, still stuck
Any help is appreciated!
1. Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
2. Are you using a CWM-based recovery?
If you have answered yes to both 1 and 2 then:
3. Have you tried flashing the zip from the external SD?
4. Did you try to flash anything else after flashing the ROM while still in the same recovery session?
(If you answered "Yes" to #4 then re-flash the rom by itself and boot at least once before flashing anything else)
EDIT: Ignore question #1, I just realized you mentioned "Unlocked" on the boot logo.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I reflashed with Wet Dream from the external SD (newer is always better, right? ).
Everything is working now
Seems like being a great ROM.

how long did you let it sit at the loading screen?
Usually when I have boot loops, I let it sit on the loading screen for awhile(2-4 minutes). If it still doesnt boot, then I do a battery pull, and then usually after that it boots.
And if it doesn't boot just reboot into recovery mode, wipe cache, data and dalvik and reinstall the ROM again.

When installing any new rom, it can take a while to build up the dalvik cache again. I've had it take up to 10 min before. Best to just walk away and come back and check on it.

Nexus 7 (2012) bootloop - rom passed sha1 check, twrp recovery

Hi,
I was using Slimkat 4.2 with TWRP recovery. Wanted to update to the latest stable build. Did so. Now I'm stuck in a bootloop.
1) I restarted in bootloader, went to advanced wipe and wiped system, dalivik cache and cache.
2) Then I flashed the file (Slim-grouper-4.4.4.build.7.0-OFFICIAL). Sha1 check out. My device is a nexus 7 2012 (non 3g).
3) on top of that, I flashed the latest gapps normal.
Bootlooped.
1) I'm able to enter into bootloader.
2) I do not have a backup of my previous instal
3) I am unable to mount usb through the twrp mount interface.
Could somebody help me here? I seem to be making a lot of mistakes with this after successfully flashing my phones for years (just recently I got a "enter password to decrypt device" on the same nexus 7 that I got through by formating through twrp.
Should I try wiping and flashing the rom again, without the gapps? (By wiping system, dalivik cach and cache)?
Are there other methods I could use?
Help would be greatly appreciated!
Please note that I can easily get into fastboot mode. When I'm at fastbook, should I just try to return to stock? I'm not exactly sure how that would work given that I have a custom recovery and rom installed.
Should I try to use sideload adb to instal the rom/original rom for the device again?

[Q] Did a wipe and now bootlooping

Hi, I was doing a full wipe on TWRP before selling my G2 D801 online and have CloudyG3 installed. I figured I would wipe everything including storage for the buyer but once I went to reboot it, it is stuck at the LG boot screen. I still can get to TWRP but I erased everything on the sdcard so I can't just reinstall the rom. Is there an easy way to sideload?
I tried to select it in TWRP but it wasn't getting recognized by my computer. I have all the correct drivers installed but I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong any help would be great!
Thanks!

Hello guys, my nexus 6p is stuck on twrp. I am running 3.0-2.0 twrp and the latest version of android. I was rebooting the device bc some of apps were misbehaving and clearing the cache. After that, it's been stuck on TWRP. I tried pretty much everything. if its possible, can just copy some of the files and wipe it? Thanks!
Enable MTP in TWRP.
Connect to your PC and transfer your desired ROM
Wipe SYSTEM, CACHE, DATA/DALVIK
Flash the ROM
REBOOT.
@Mavelos said it all, I hope you succeed.
Please keep in mind that if you use a better title you can have much more help

twrp wont wipe cache on my ze552kl

I tried installing RR ROM last night it took me a good 8 tries because twrp couldn't wipe the cache and put me into boot loop. And then my nandroid backup failed to restore from SD so the only option I had was to format data from twrp which wiped my downloads for all the ROMs. I had to sideload RR and Gapps to finally resurrect my phone. My back up is lost now.
Is there any fix for these issues? Also I tried installing through otg but that didn't work either I couldn't select the option.
I appreciate all your help
Thanks!
