Unnable to initialize phone: Only Clockworkmod Working - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I was trying to update muy PA 3.99 to the latest one. Then I did the factory reset and then tried to install it. When I tried to install pa_mako 4.3 - Beta 3, it says that there was an error:
Warning: No file_contextsset_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E: Error in /sdcard/0/pa_mako-4.3-BETA3-20140506.zip (Status 7)
Instalation aborted.
I already realized that the problem is that I need to update the Clockworkmod b4 doing this. But now my phone won't boot untill home screen... it always goes back to the CWM screen.
I have tried to restore the latest backup, but it says MD5 mismatch.
Also, I can't access my mobile using USB, even with the proper Drivers installed (it won't get recognized by windows).
I am lost.... can anyone help me?
I already tried the Nexus toolkit, but i dont know what is going wrong that it also can't connect to my Nwexus 4.

Desperate mode off haahhaha
Just followed this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/guide-ultimate-nexus-4-root-guide-t2018179

You can flash/update clockworkmod while fastboot mode, and then reflash your rom.

Did you installed the usb drivers? Did you tryed to reflash some other rom before 4.2.2
Btw check also device manager or its connected.

[Q] [CM12] [D802] TWRP Error while Updating CM: ZIP File is corrupt!

Hello guys, since I've installed CM12 I've been getting errors from TWRP when flashing CM updates.
I had a Nexus 4 and when I installed CM updates it usually rebooted to recovery and then TWRP would install it automatically, but it's not happening on my G2 D802. I have TWRP 2.8.5, installed with Autorec before flashing CM12 for the first time.
Error log says shortly after I start to flash CM updates:
E: ZIP file is corrupt!
E: Error installing zip fie '/cache/recovery/block.map'
Then it goes on and finishes flashing and it says successful, in fact it always works, but should I be concerned? Am I doing something wrong or it has something to do with the bootloader? I've read somewhere that you had to downgrade the bootloader in order to flash, but also read somewhere that autorec does that for you. I've also read that it could have been that I was using an old recovery, but I'm using the latest, I don't know what it could be...
Thanks in advance

No, wait. I got the same issue with BUMPED TWRP, please install the classic OpenTWRP 2.5.0 (not bumped) and you will upgrade the system without any issue.
Buona giornata, stammi bene e buon modding!
I'm using normal TWRP, downloaded latest versione from its website, I'm not using the bumped one.
cm 12 corrupt update and wifi problems
I have the same problem as u do! And when I leave my home wifi, and later return to it, I have to reboot the phone in order for it to connect to the home wifi again... In the wifi settings it says either "Connecting" or "Saved".
I would be very grateful for any help!
Same happens here, it installs fine, I just have to do it manually. I'm on TWRP v2.8.5.0.
Same here,I have to flash the zip manually.

hello to all the developers of xda and other who helps here.
i need your help on the issue which i mentioned in title.
i m trying to install CM12.1 provided by developer mukulsoni.
i have downloaded all the the files instructed by him
when i put my on recovery mode (kitkat recovery mod) n try to apply update from sd card for CWM and rom CM12.1 for both i got same error.
someone from here suggested me to install CWM through odin.
i tried that too but when i put my phone in download mode odin didn't recognise my device, while i connect with kids in normal condition it easily got detected.
Use cwm recovery to fix it
This is old, But i guess may help somebody else.
You have not installed recovery properly. Install the correct recovery file (you can follow this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-touch-recovery-t3107535)
Once done then you should be able to flash any recovery/ROM (including Mukul's CWM)

LG E610, help with custom ROM install (Error status 7?)

Hey,
I want to use an app that requires android 4.3 or above so have to install a custom ROM. Now I've rooted my phone, formatted everything using CM, but as I try to install the zip file on my phone I get the following error:
Code:
E: Error in /external_sd/cm-11-20150325-UNOFFICIAL-e610.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Seeing as I'm surprised I got this far I'd say it's about time I asked for help.
Does anyone know what the problem is, and can anyone help me fix it?
Thanks in advance!
Try to use the latest version of CWM or TWRP to flash the CM11. I do not have a link to the latest version of CWM, but I have to TWRP.
here --->TWRP 2.8.7.0

How to move new rom files to Nexus 7 grouper after failed flash?

Hi,
I have rooted my Nexus 7 and installed TWRP, but when tried to flash slimkat 4.4.4 it failed with error message "set_metadata:recursive: some changes failed". An important details was that I did this after a couple of glasses of wine (genious, i know) and of course I messed up and did a backup after the my first attempt at flashin the slimkat rom, so restoring the back up is no good. I did all of this from the device itself, except the OEM unlocking.
How do I access the the Nexus 7 and add other rom files in the state it is now. I can see that Android filemanager in OSX detects it when I try to start normally, but is not able to gain access, then the device goes to TWRP
How do I move forward from here? I guess I need to get a nother rom zip file to flash, but I'm not sure.
I want to have lightweight custom rom, before trying to flach slimkat my Nexus 7 was on android 5.1.1 and it was not really usable. My goal is to use the device for not heavier than kitkat, please help me.

Ok so as per my understanding , you have unlocked bootloader .
You also have custom recovery twrp 2.8.7 installed . Right ?
Since you wipe system , your phone is without any os right now .
So now what you do is download any stock modified rom for your device .
Download latest twrp by xanwar . Flash the twrp zip (by xanwar)from twrp 2.8.7 (already installed ).
Voila ! Now you can flash any custom rom or stock based modified roms .
I don't know this is what you asking

Ok . I understand now .
1)donwlaod latest twrp by xanwar . And flash it. So now you have latest recovery installed on your device .:fingers-crossed:
2)download gecko premium rom from Android development section here on xda . Place it on SD card .
3)reboot to recovery , wipe everything except SD card . (You will lose everything from your phone .)
4)if step 3 gives error then format data not wipe .
5)repeat step 3
6)reboot to recovery now .
Flash the rom that you downaoded (gecko premium )
7)reboot system .
8) do this first then report back .

I don't understand the logic behind not enabling usb debugging !
No need for all that .
If using windows then make sure the all driver shows up when you enter into fastboot mode .
Check from control panel of your PC . If not then reinstall the drivers . It must show asus composite ...........Blah Blah blah ...Android bridge interface .(well i use Linux so dont recall properly ).
Once the desired drivers are present you are good to go ahead .And flash proper twrp .And do the rest .
Bottom line :check drivers
Flash the latest twrp (24 July build) link below

Flash xposed zip . Sdk21 v86 works flawlessly ,
Then download the apk for xposed and install it as normal apk you can change recovery anytime but be sure that you flash your devices twrp only not others .
