Hello
My nexus 4 gets stuck on the google logo then boots into cwm recovery after I tried to install the stock 4.4.2 rom, I was coming from PA 4.3 rom.
The install aborted itself. I
wiped everything before hand and tried to install the rom again and still have the issue.
I downloaded the 4..3 stock rom but I don't know how to get it into my phone. I am on a mac and can't clear adb instructions.
I think I may have bricked my phone. Can someone help me find a way to fix this?

Can't help you on the Mac, but while it's unnerving, don't worry, your phone isn't bricked. Search xda for Mac adb setup and go from there. Good luck.

if u can get into recovery then its a great sign....put some custom rom onto ur computer's internal sd card by mounting usb through recovery...if it isnt letting u mount then try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237 to setup adb over mac
Maybe run Windows in VMWare?

I tried to install a new rom after updating TWRP 2.3.0.0. after all was complete it stuck on the boot screen. I then tried with the Nexus Root Toolkit to use a restore from backup. Same problem. I then tried to flash stock and unroot. Same problem. I then tried a number of things through TWRP from backups I had their. Same problem. At present I have no OS and I can only boot into TWRP, turn if off or look at the GOOGLE screen. I have run out of ideas and would appreciate any help offered.
If you have tried everything else (flashing a ROM zip etc.) Then you should flash the factory image from Google.
Don't use the script/batch file as that will wipe your internal storage.
Just flash system and boot.

Sometimes a rom takes a long time to boot for the first time, please be very patient. Also, try wiping everything from /system, and then re install a custom rom from your /sdcard partition. also make sure your roms are for the nexus 7 not galaxy nexus or other similar devices. ONE MORE THING 4.1.2 wont flash with 4.1.1 bootloader.

I know many people hate the talk about toolkits but I was in the same situation and I used Wug's toolkit and it saved me. I downloaded 4.1.2 image directly from Google, as the toolkit only has 4.1.1.
I tried to return to stock on my own and it just went from bad to worse. I would of spent more time trying to fix it on my own but I was on a very tight time constraint. It will unroot your device but it is easy to root again.

THANK YOU the "ONE MORE THING" is all I needed to know for the same problem!
I recently tried to flash PA on my nexus.
Installed cwm on my phone. Then downloaded the PA ROM and moved to the device storage.
Rebooted into CWM and performed all the wipes.
I accidentally wiped the system and the internel partitions too.
when i tried to install ROM from sdcard. it says "NO FILES FOUND"
Iam stuck here. Phone wont boot into Android... any suggestions? please help!
How did you wipe system within CWM?
But since you say you wiped internal partitions too, it seems to me that you wiped your internal emulated sdcard... so I think your only option now is to flash stock images again... Read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
If you don't want to flash the stock images you can also push a rom to your phone with adb while booted in a custom recovery
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/
Thanks guys. Found a solution.
Flashed TWRP and sideloaded the ROM file. And flashed it.
Earlier the same process with CWM was not successful. Now the phone is loaded with PA ROM!
Thanks guys! and can u point me to the google stock images??

wiped /system? have you tried simple re-flashing your ROM from the .zip ?
no worry... download the nexus 4 twrp latest img from their site, and flash it to your N4
what you needed:
twrp img file
some n4 rom
adb and fastboot
instructions:
boot to fastboot, vol key down + powerbutton when n4 is off.
on your comp, , dos/terminal - fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
reboot in recovery
select the adb side load from advanced tab in the twrp.
on your comp - adb sideload rom.zip
everything done....reboot phone.

did you wipe using fastboot erase command? if so, you need to re-format to the android supported file system to access the partitions!
try installing the twrp recovery and perform 'FORMAT DATA' from wipe. then install ROM.
N4 no OS.

Hi, I'm having the same problem with my Nexus 4 and I have TWRP V 2.6.3.0 but I'm not sure how to push any rom to my phone because it's not showing up under my computer in Windows.

I had the paranoid android rom on my nexus 4 and i tried to install a new rom. the zip must have corrupted because while installing it it failed. And now it wont boot. It goes to the google screen, shuts down, then launches into the twrp menu. Yes i factory reset and wiped before i tried to install. What can i do? I have no bootable rom on my nexus 4 right now?

Did you try a 4.4 rom by any chance? there are 1,000's of post to use CWM to be safe, and did you back up you previous rom to restore from TWRP?
If you still have a 4.4 rom zip on you device look for help on flashing CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1993331
If all else fails you can also try a factory reset http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ there is an option to tick on soft-bricked / bootlook in Wugs toolkit.
You can't "mount" your nexus 4. You can use adb to push the appropriate zips over. Or use fastboot to flash .imgs.

Yes i did try a 4.4 rom. I noticed that soft bricked thing in wugs toolkit right before i saw this post, so yeah thats what im doing right now. I should have tried the flashing cwm thing because i do have the 4.4 rom on my device, but ill just wait until google releases it or its stable.

I'm using the Nexus 5 port atm and it is stable, i used to skim over the instructions but that extra 5 minutes of reading the flashing instructions will save you hours of searching for a way to get out of a error.
3 options:
1. Adb sideload the things you'd like to flash.
2. Adb push the files onto the device while in recovery.
3. Fastboot flash the factory images.

Hello everyone. I am desperately in need of your help! I installed the most recent version of Paranoid Android 4.4. Everything worked great. I then decided I wanted a smaller nav bar and found a flashable zip file for Kit Kat that was meant to reduce the nav bar size. I flashed it but now I am stuck in a boot loop. I am unable to get to TWRP but can get into download mode. I tried using FlashTool to flash the stock ROM but it keeps getting stuck at 49%. I don't mind if I lose all my data, I just want to get things up and running again! What should I do? Thank you.

The reason the flashtools is failing at 49% is because you are on a non stock rom, therefore you need to wipe the phone before flashing to stock (ive had the same problem before), but because you cant get into recovery, im not sure how you will wipe your device

Once you get into download mode, hold the buttons to get into recovery.
To get into recover
Try holding volume down + power*
Immediately when LG appears let go of both and ONLY hold onto power, should boot into option to factory reset*
Hit power button 3 times to continue, then itll load into recovery

If you cant get a rom sideloaded, Now that you can get into TWRP, wipe EVERYTHING and then flash back to stock, it should work.

By wipe everything do you mean format wipe or advanced wipe? And how will I get the stock rom onto the phone to flash it?

I mean wipe data, system and cache (internal storage aswell if you want) and you flash the stock rom via the flashtool and a pc, it doesn't need to be in your devices storage.
