Hi.
Guys. I need help. I tried changing font on my rooted Nexus. I used font installer from Play Store. After installation the app asked me to reboot the device. Now the phone is stuck on boot screen. I tried going in to recovery and wiping all the data. It did not help.
Can anyone in this community help me?

fastboot flash a recovery, and you could load a custom rom. twrp recovery has an option to push files to your phone with adb. you can push a rom to your phone then flash it in your recovery. or you can flash the stock image via fastboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183555

Thanx Bro. My nexus is up and running now..

Today I tried fastboot and flash 4.3 stock rom on my nexus 4, root and stock rom.
For some reason the zip on "sdcard" is failing (error 7 code strange as it was full stock) letting me a stuck google boot.
I tried to wipe cache without success.
I am sure the solution is somewhere here as already said in that topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183555
But what line should I follow first? Ideally I would like to flash 4.3 or 4.2.2 without factory reset.
Any advice?
Is your boot loader unlocked?? If yes you won't loose any data if you follow the above procedure.. But if not, I think the chances of saving data are low. You can install 4.3 directly if you have the files. I updated mine yesterday using the same method.. I was on slimbeam..

Yes I am unlocked/rooted. The thing is 4.3 install fails either from sdcard or doing a sideload. I will try 4.2.2 but I am starting to worry a bit...

If you are unlocked, try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
Download 4.3 factory image from here https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/takju-jwr66v-factory-c2ef855e.tgz.
Hopefully this should help.

I have been reading and applying more carrefully http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 without D10. It is well writen and it is looking to be a safe and efficient to me. I even started by installing 4.2.2 again, then backup then 4.3 with the same method.
4.3 up running and rooted!
No data loss, some stuff learnt and a new backup!
If a new OTA is popping up I will look for the same method.

Does it work for anyone? Upon first boot it works like normal but after I reboot it thinks I don't have root anymore.
Try rebooting again, some got this issue.

Are you sure you have the latest SU (v1.51) flashed?

The newest PA apparently you don't need to flash another zip so I deleted it after it worked on first boot.
So I updated my nexus 4 using a clean factory image and applied the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.43.zip root and everything worked fine AFAIK but after updating to the latest SU and SuperSU app I can't restore my apps from TWRP backup using titanium. It just didn't decompress the .Img data file, showing a blank list as soon as I selected the backup. Checked back reinstalling the zip file and worked back again. It's a bit weird as you don't need root to decompress an .img file.
What other root issues have you encountered on 4.3? What could have caused my problem?
U have to flash the latest supersu zip in recovery.
Hit thanks if I helped.

I selected the CWM/TWRP method to update SU. I imagine it's the same.

If that method doesn't work then you have to do it manually by flashing SuperSU 1.51 which fixes the restore issue on TB.

So apparently I lost the su binary, titanium backup said I had no root and running super user says I don't have the binary installed. So do I have to re root then?

flash the latest supersu. if your recovery is gone, flash a custom recovery first, then the latest supersu. if you updated the official 4.3, you do this after every official update, always have too, nothing new here.

Update guessing is the ota? You can use flashify app from play store to flash either TWRP recovery 2.6.3.2 that is a IMG. Or 2.6.3.3. That's a zip file .....
Okay will try

I just read in another thread that custom recoveries cannot yet be flashed on the latest OTA. You have to revert back in order to have a custom recovery. According to this thread.
