lg nexus 4 stuck on nexus logo after factory reset

Hi guys. My nexus 4 is rooted. Everything was perfect. I just wanted to do a fresh start. I did factory reset. Then it rebooted. Came to language selection. I selected English and than suddenly screen was black and nothing happened. I restarted again and it stuck on nexus logo. I did downloaded root toolkit 1.63 and it found my model and its selected 4.2.2 automatically. Then it downloaded stock image file and said my device adb error saying need to select USB debugging mode. I can't cause its stuck. Now about the rom it was liquidsmooth rom. Please help me how to go back to stock android 4.2.2. Thanks.

hi,
did u try to wipe cache/dalvik?

Bro I do not know what happened but I did volume up and power for 20 secs and power button again. It showed boot loader mood and switched off the device.

sorry, but for the stock img flash isn't needed just the bootloader mod? The deb mod is useless for this!

Throw it in the trash.

dont use a toolkit, they can create more issues than they are worth. boot into the bootloader, then flash the stock image via fastboot. thats all.

Thanks a lot. I sold it. My bad. Dn wanna use custom rom again.

Help! My phone is stuck!

I recently tried to flash my rom for the first time with safetrap. I reboot my device but when i try to boot it up all it says is "safetrap disabled system starting in 10 seconds." at the bottom right it says continue and at the bottom left it says recovery mode. I can't press any of the buttons and after 10 seconds the screen goes black. this may be a boot loop and i have no idea how to fix this. Help please. This phone is a droid razr m JB4.1.2

Need more details. Did you try to flash over the stock ROM or did you create a new ROM slot and flash there? FYI, you can't flash over stock in SS. If you did, you'll need to fastboot back to stock.

Will the phone boot normally so you can get to play store or it just won't boot at all? Are you using volume down and power, just making sure? Sometimes it can be finnicky like that.

ok i just tried it manually and the factory reset screen showed up, but when i pushed the power button twice the screen went black with the backlight on...

OK, try downloading quick boot from play store and TWRP from play store. Quick Boot will give you an option to reboot directly to recovery, try that first. Then, if that doesn't work, you can try running TWRP app and that allows you to flash a new recovery using the TWRP interface whole your phone is running. You may want to go to the TWRP website and download the most current version for your model first.
Edit: just use the TWRP app to install or reinstall the actual recovery you downloaded from the TWRP site linked below.

thank you i will try that now

The black screen with white lettering in the top left corner is the bootloader.
If you have adb you can download a new twrp recovery image and do a "fastboot flash recovery path_to_recovery\recovery_name.img" and then try rebooting into recovery. It should work fine.

This is what appears in the top left of the screen when the LG splash pops up for a split second and goes black if you were curious.

That being said, you need to push a working recovery onto the device. If you can get into android, then you can access ADB from there and push the working recovery. You should be able to find the latest version of vzwG2 twrp in the g2 general section.
If you can't get into android, then you're ****ed as far as I'm aware. However, if this is the case then you can send it into LG and they will fix it right up for you

I've heard some people say that LG just reflashed the phone while they left root on there. I completely formatted the phone so there was nothing left on it before I sent mine in just in case.

You can't access ADB unless youre in android or a recovery, and you are in neither. You would usually be able to access fastboot (similar to ADB) which is another safety feature so you dont get bricked, but from what i've tried in this state i haven't been able to get into either.
You can try to play around with the android partitions in QHUSB_BULK and potentially fix it if you restore a recovery or something along those lines. But like I had said, I had no success with that.
Your best bet is to send it format the device and send it into LG so they can reflash everything.

Same issue, fixed it today
I had the same issues with a non-loading boot loader & a non-booting ROM. Follow the instructions in the thread linked below to restore stock firmware, and then root, TWRP, and install a custom ROM afterwards. The link to the LG Flash Tools was not one that worked for me, but a quick google search will get you the right file (top 3 results proved fruitful for me).

Is it bricked?

I have a note 3 9005 and tried to flash cwm recovery via Odin pro with 18% battery???after this my phone stuck in "Samsung galaxy note 3 screen" with blue letters on top left "recovery booting..." Tried removing battery and card and every time I get the same boot loop with initial screen and blue letters recovery booting...can't go to download mode or any other screen. I had 4.4.2 rooted recently. Any help would be appreciated

Just reflash it, and make sure you have the right CWM recovery .6 iirc is the correct one.

Remember the term bricked means basically a paperweight. Won't turn on at all and basically a dud. If your phone turns on then it's not bricked even if it boot loops etc

Another way take out the battery, insert, turn on by direct boot to download mode, use Odin reflash the ROM with tick Phone Bootloader Updates.

Guys whenever I remove battery ,try hard reset or try to enter download mode..it starts in stuck boot screen (won't go any further) showing this...

Take the battery out to power off the device, then put it back in... Hold volume down + Home + Power to get to download mode. You are trying recovery mode which is different.

Seems you were right thx a lot

Friend was having this same issue, followed the thread and got it fixed, thanks everyone!

Stuck in fastboot!!! (Sprint G2)

So I think I screwed up big time. I rooted my phone, found the AutoRec tutorial and app and installed and ran it, once it tried to reboot into recovery it immediately went into fastboot saying
"[5360] Fastboot mode started"
"[5410] udc_start()"
No matter what I try to do i won't leave this screen (other than powering it off), I've tried flashing two different twrp recoveries too.
Please help I'm stressing out big time

Update: I've gotten it out of fastboot, now it's stuck on the LG screen (since I wiped it clean)
