Hello,
I recently got the Nexus 4 and I love it except for the battery life.
I was wondering if there were any roms that would retain the stock feel (no other features added) and have great battery life?
I have also not rooted my phone and installed recovery so if someone could guide me, then that would be appreciated.
Thanks!
MiNCO v6 ROM is what you want.

ROM has little or nothing to do with battery life. You can keep the stock ROM and just use a custom kernel like Franco or faux.

I restored my phone and flashed CM10.1.2 with 4.2.2 Gapps, cleared caches and rebooted. I keep getting stuck in a boot loop with the CyanogenMod circle spinning. I also tried with PA3 with its Gapps and same deal, I got stuck in the boot loop with the shark changing colours.
What do I do?!??! This makes no sense. I am rooted, installed BusyBox and have TWRP flashed.
Help....
This has been going on for like 3 days now.
Format data too. I know it sucks but its what you have to do.

I believe so. How come the WiFi bars are not blue?
That means Google has not synced yet, but you still have network.

I added my Google account and synced it. But the WiFi icon is still grey.
I'm about to pickup a gs4 and would like to know the simplest way to wifi tether. I don't want to install custom roms, would rather just root and install an app if this is possible, as can be done for the gs3. Can anyone point me to some posts or videos on doing this w/ the latest OTA (MJA) installed?
Thanks!!
Qbking.

Unfortantely there are no rooting apps. The quickest way if you just want root, is to flash CF-Auto-Root via ODIN. This is quick and easy.

I flashed jasmine with flash fire . Then i had to flash a partial firmware with odin. After the flash I couldn't enter recovery mode to clear the cash and factory reset it wouldn't boot. So I had to flash the stock Verizon 5.0 rom to get the phone working again

Are you on 0B6 or 0F1.? Just root reinstall su and busybox . Once that's done download jasmine 6.1 and flash with flashfire. .then it takes a long time booting with 4 icons across screen. Be patient. Then you could have fun

That's not good. Can you reboot into recovery and clear cache?

That partial firmware screws things up. You might have to odin recovery tar for 0f1

okay its still not booting, im going to flash the factory rom back to the phone with odin for the 4 time lol and i guess ill find a better way to install jasmine, my guess is either i have a corrupt .zip or something weird is going on with flashfire, or the way i rooted this phone is causing conflicts
Well I've been there. At least you can get back to stock now and root it....I helped another guy where he could not get out of custom boot screen

davekaz, can you give me the exact tutorial you used to get jasmine v6.1 installed on the verizon note 3, my note 3 has the OF1 firmware, could you tell me what version of flashfire you used ? its bugging me that i cant get this installed, when some people can
V0.30 I think flashfire..Do you have verizon account? I allowed people to get files from my dropbox but now they limited my account.. have you been on rooted 5 for a bit? Jasmine is no big difference except for xposed

And they are in the midst of unlocking the phone so maybe just enjoy being rooted have you seen the thread for xposed? If you can put that on its the same as jasmine...I gave you all the steps earlier. .the only I could think of...can you screenshot your phone settings after you root and all?
