[Q] Nexus 4 stuck in No Command bootloop after Kit Kat OTA update

So, my phone was stuck in No Command bootloop. I’ve done the power+volume up and had cleared cache and even done a factory reset. Those did nothing and my phone is still in stuck No Command loop. I think I’ve made it even worse by trying to Flash Recovery and Reboot options in the Nexus Tool Kit because my phone won’t even get to the No Command screen. It just turns on and turns off after Google comes on. Currently it stuck in that loop and only stops once the battery is completely drained. Please help.
Same problem here (ROOTED NEXUS 4)
Hi yeah I have the same problem as you just to clarify all i see is the new kitkat 4.4 logo over and over again I tried to factory reset it using TWRP didn't work. I think that the mistake I did was once TWRP installed the new system I clicked on "restart system" instead of "restart bootloader". Its still stuck at that stage and wont get past the bootscreen plzzz help
Hold vol down and power........can you get to download mode?

like the above poster has mentioned you will probably have to get into bootloader mode and then factory images...

My power + down volume brings me to FastBoot Mode. So only, Start, Power Off Restart bootloader and Recovery mode are the only available option. Recovery Mode does nothing but bring me to the Google loop. Also what do I need and do exactly for "factory images?" I'm a total newb here.

Think about whether noon or expert your first step is to search your issue. Where do you find factory images for a nexus 4 well search that. How to flash factory images search that. I am driving so can't point you to it but do t hide behind noob tag you caaaaaan doooo it...
It just feels so overwhelming and hard to dissect which of the hundreds of hundreds of posts is what I'm truly looking for.
Anyways, I've been reading this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
I also have Nexus Tool Kit by skipsoft.
Hello,
I have the same problem with "no commands" screen...
Later, I tried to update with "OTA.zip" file from recovery mode (apply update from ADB), but I got this error:
"set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /tmp/update.zip
(Status 7)"
I guess I can flash a clean image from flashboot, but before that I would like to recover all my data :S
How could I backup the device if adb is just working in recovery mode where I can just execute sideload commands?
(I have root, but I have not custom recovery)
All kind of help will be welcome!
Thanks!
IS ADB something I have to download?
Same "no command" here after OTA (I am forced ota and I think this was the problem)
I solved flash manually stock room of 4.4 KitKat then I rooted with nexus toolkit (I lost 7 hours of my life find the solution)
What I caught "never force framework in future", have you forced too guys?

[Q] Nexus 4 Bootloop

Yesterday, I tried to load the aandroid Lollipop image from Google on my Nexus 4 using Fastboot. For some reason, something went wrong and it started bootlooping. But the worst part is that now, whatever I try to flash, it will bootloop. When I go into TWRP Recovery, it says :"can't find "/cash"", I think the probleme may be comming from here.
Any solution very appriciated
Thanks in advance
Now when I try to flash a recovery, it says "Partition table does not exist"
if ur struck in bootlooping after flashing factory image 5.0 on wugs nexus 4 roottoolkit 1.9.6.
solution
boot into fastboot using POWER and VOLUME DOWN ..connect your device ,the pc will detect the device as ADB device .
then open nexus root toolkit
just click on unlock and follow the steps, twrp will be installed .
perform factory reset and wipe cash .
re boot the device .it takes 8-10min ....

[Q] Help with softbricked nexus 7.

My nexus 7 wont boot past the Google logo , i can get in to recovery mode but factory restore does nothing , just says wiping data and stays there.
I tried using nexus toolkit , when i try to unlock bootloader it says unlocking, screen turns off when i turn it back on it still is locked. Is there anything else i can do??
You can try to download a custom rom on your pc and mount your storage through recovery, copy it over, then flash it.
Dont forget gapps.
If mounting doesnt work then sideload it.

Any ideas what went wrong here?

Do you have the stock recovery? Try clearing cache from recovery, and try to boot normally.

Bootlooping on dead Android guy after failed installation, help!

I had my phone rooted on old Oreo version and wanted to reinstall the latest factory image. While I was doing this my laptop got a BSOD and the installation didn't fully finish. I redid the install but now my phone is in a bootloop. It will go past the Google logo but afterwards will loop on the dead Android guy with the ''No command'' message, same happens when I try to enter recovery mode. Is there something I can do?
I would flash TWRP and try wiping all including internal. Sounds like one of the partions is corrupted. You could do it with fastboot in bootloader mode but not sure of the commands.

You're probably not used to the stock recovery. The no command droid is normal. Watch this video, and see if you can get to recovery or bootloader.
