So I rooted and lost half my internal storage ... If I flash a ROM and then flash the stock recovery wipe cache and factory reset should I be able to get my memory back ?

So you have a 32gb device but you only have 16 now? You didn't reboot after you unlocked the bootloader did you? A factory reset in the stock recovery should fix that

Do you have the userdata image file? You need to unzip the factory image and in the is another zip that needs to be unzipped

In order for us to help you, you need to provide more details, just try to erase everything using fastboot then reflash everything:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
Fastboot erase boot
Fastboot erase recovery
Note:you will need a rom image and a recovery image

Flash twrp, then find a zip file with the recovery you want and flash that? Or buy flash image GUI from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.flashimagegui sounds like that does what you're looking for

Hi
Basically I am new to android. I rooted by nexus 4 yesterday and installed CM 10.1 successfully. But I had some issue with the security settings so I tried to flash the system.img as per the instructions in one of the forum. But flashing didn't complete fully. Now my nexus 4 boots up only till the nexus logo and the logo keeps glowing. clockwork recovery works fine.But unfortunately i deleted the CM 10.1 zip file from the mobile after i installed it. Is there anyway i can push the rom into the mobile. Or is there any recovery option?? Please help
thanks.
Its a lot of flashing but you could restore your nandroid redownload the rom and reflash it

how to restore nandroid?
Wipe cache and dalvik cache through cwm
He is assuming you made a nandroid backup of your original ROM. Did you? You could also boot in to recovery and perform a factory data reset.
Yes im assuming because thats the first thing you do before flashing lol

Try the side load option with adb and cwm only thing I can think of
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Thank you. I used the "install from side load" option and pushed the CM 10.1 zip file into the mobile. Now I am using AOKP rom.

That same tool has the option to unroot.
Question, when you unlocked the boot loader, was everything removed?

Was up until 4 doing this because I kept running into issues lol. So glad it's working now. Flashed francos and we gucci
use this toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995688
Having a bit of bother getting my nexus up and running again. Pulled my phone out my pocket and it was turned off. Powered it on but it wouldn't get past Google screen. No twrp recovery. Nothing. So done the usual and get nexus toolkit out. Re locked and unlocked bootloader. Downloaded stock 4.2.2 flashed it but still stuck at Google screen. Can get in to fast boot but that's it.
Any help appreciated because I'm not sure what to do next
Cheers

Try going into fastboot, and flashing stock with the official firmware from google (Type Nexus stock on Google). If you want to, you can even replace the recovery.img inside the zip for a custom recovery

Been installing stock from fastboot but can't get into recovery to wipe it so that it will boot.
What program can I use to compress tgz files. I've changed the recovery to twrp but not sure how to pack it up again

If you know how to use the ADB and the fastboot command, that is the way to go. It is by far the best way to go. Use one of the guides on this website, don't have the direct link but look for efrants guide for returning back to stock. Search isn't working now
