I've tried flashing Omnirom a few times now and every time I boot my Nexus 4 after a fresh install, the phone force closes right away and I can't do anything. I've tried flashing it with both CMW and TWRP. I flash the Omnirom nightlies (tried 17th, 18th and 23rd), pa_gapps-modular-full-4.4.2-20131215-signed and the latest SuperSU. Always the same outcome, Phone crashes right away before I can sign in or do anything. I've not seen anyone else with this issue, so what am I doing wrong?
Any assistance is greatly appreciated,.

Hi, I bought my GS4 two days ago and immediately rooted it via the motochopper method, and then installed ClockworkMod via the loki method. I then installed the then latest nightly (cm-10.1-20130530-NIGHTLY).
Now I understand that nightlies come with no promises of work, but I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing a rebooting problem on their device. Mine reboots randomly, and often. Multiple times a day. On two occasions it has gotten itself into a reboot loop (starts rebooting, gets to the lock screen, and immediately starts rebooting), in which i needed to pull the battery. Still having the same issue on the May 31st build.
I'm just hoping that someone else has this issue, other then just me. Any ideas to fix it would be amazing!
Use a touchwiz rom, problem solved.
CM is nice for sure but, it seems to always be broken.
Fixed!!
After dealing with the issue for a few more days, it continued to get worse. I could no longer uninstall apps (every time I did it would reboot), and it became more frequent, even with updating to the most recent nightly every day.
I finally got fed up with it today. I did a complete wipe of data, cache, and dalvik cache, and reinstalled the latest nightly (cm-10.1-20130530-NIGHTLY). After installing gapps i turned it on and am no longer experiencing any issues!!! Even after i reinstalled all of my apps and restored the data using titanium. Hopefully it has fixed it completely, only time will tell over the next few days.
I have a Motorola Droid Razr M XT907 and have been running the Skrilax CyanogenMod 10.1 nightlies. Over the past several days, my phone has been rebooting randomly, and it seems to be getting worse. I have tried flashing earlier versions that had worked in the past, but the random rebooting continues. I also tried using Bytecode's Vanquish kernel, still rebooting. I've been through wiping /system, wiping the caches (/cache and dalvik) several times in a row before and after flashing the ROM and Gapps. Have tried not opting to restore my data from Google's servers during setup after the flash, no love. I don't think it is a downloaded app issue, because it rebooted on me a couple of times during the initial setup before it even started downloading any apps. I am almost at my wit's end. Does anyone have any experience with this, and possibly shed some light on what is going on? I really don't want to go back to the stock FW
I have scoured the internet to find someone with the same issue as me, and I haven't found enough to fix the issue, so I'm placing a plea for help here. I have installed TWRP 2.6 recovery, and I am trying to flash OmniRom 4.4.2 nightlies. Originially I was trying to flash cyanogenmod 11, but I had this same problem. It appears to be any kit kat rom that causes the problem (I haven't tried flashing stock or any non-kitkat roms, but I was running on rooted stock before I tried to flash CM11). Anyways, When I flash I am wiping dalvik, cached, system, and data. Then flashing the rom, then flashing Paranoid android gapps. It will boot the first time fine. My phone will work just fine afterwards. However, if my battery dies or I restart, I will be unable to boot back into the rom and my phone becomes a soft brick. It will just stay stuck at the galaxy s 4 logo for as long as I leave it on. I have left it on for more than 30 minutes and there are no changes. I can't have my phone being just a dead battery away from being bricked, so I am asking for your help! Anything is much appreciated!
One other side note: I had my phone just lock up on me once in the middle of it running just fine. Afterwards it turned off on its own and tried to restart, but it resulted in the same issue. I don't know if this is related or just a bug in the rom.

Omni clearly states that it is an alpha, so you mileage may vary considerably.
Sounds kernel related. Have you tried just reflashing the kernel and seeing if it'll boot after that. Or trying a different kernel?
Thanks for the reply! I actually just fixed the problem on my own. I used Odin to flash a newer version of TWRP and then flashed omni, and it looks like everything is working just fine. I read a few people saying that they were having issues flashing kit kat roms with older versions of recovery, so I figured it was worth a shot.
I have the T-Mobile variant of the LG G2. I was using the latest CM11 nightly with no issues whatsoever then all of a sudden my device bootlooped. Now it keeps showing "LG" then the Cyanogen logo and then "LG" again etc. Sometime it says "upgrading apps" then "finishing boot" but then it goes back to the bootloop. I can get into recovery and tried sideloading the new nightly. It side-loaded correctly but the phone still bootloops. I tried with CM10, same issue. I tried with stock, same issue. What the hell is going on? It was working fine up until now!
I even tried installing these roms after wiping data and cache and it still doesn't work. Help me please!
Hey,
I have been using the ColtOS rom based on Oreo 8.1.0 for quite sometime now. I had it rooted with Magisk too. I have the latest version of TWRP installed (version 3.3.0). I had no problem until now where it just randomly tried to reboot after I ended a call. It did reboot fine once, but it was when i ended a second call that it got stuck in a bootloop.
I have tried everything, clearing the cache/Dalvik , wipe data and system and flashed three different Oreo ROMs, uninstalling Magisk. However, I can only go as far as the set-up screen after the new ROM boots, after which it goes back to rebooting itself endlessly.
I seem to have exhausted all my options, any kind of help to restore my phone will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
I have found out that I can flash new ROM and even set up the phone by logging into Google, only when I connect my phone to my laptop. It even installs all the previous apps and data and thats it. It reboots to the lockscreen and when I try to unlock it, it reboots again. And this is all only when I keep the phone connected to my laptop, otherwise,it keeps looping into the bootscreen logo.
