The only way is to sell your n4 and buy a g3.

So I have my Nexus 4 I love it and everything is running well but I miss some of the advantages of having root. What are the biggest advantages of rooting the Nexus 4 what are the disadvantages? Can I gain root without unlocking the bootloader? I rooted only the Optimus V from virgin mobile is it all basically the same? Is there any known way to root without using a computer? Thanks for any input or suggestions you may have. it is really appreciated.

You can:
1. Install custom kernels and custom roms. (So you're telling me you only rooted the Optimus V and never installed kernels and roms?)
2. It's a different root method than the Optimus V.
3. You MUST unlock the bootloader to gain root access. Might as well unlock it. You won't needing it much unless you brick it somehow.
4. You need to root using a computer. It's not like the Optimus V, there is no special application to use to gain root.
5. The only disadvantage is you not taking advantage of it.
Here are two useful toolkits you can use to root the N4. It's very easy but if you know how to use fastboot then go right ahead.

one very big advantage of rooting is being able to install Adaway. Adaway is an app that removes ads from any other app and browser i think? that you download. If you play games like words with friends, adaway removes the ads and makes it more enjoyable to play.
The deal breaker for me is titanium backup. I used it to migrate /restore my data from my old phone. Now I know there are other apps that can do it without rooting but titanium backup is a one stop centre.

You'll have to revert back to stock to receive them. Or you can wait till a deodexed/odexed stock rom comes out.
For me rooting it is the only way to go. I wouldn't own a server without root and I see android in the same way.
Titanium Backup
Overclock and undervolt with a good kernel like Franco to save battery
AdAway
I would have to recommend going beyond just root and installing a custom ROM.
Being able to have 5 buttons instead of 3 is pretty nice. Xylon G+
Calibrating the screen requires root. Nexus 4 Display Control
I double tap my screen to turn it on. Touch Control
You can adjust the DPI essentially turning up the resolution.
I can't really see any reason not to root / ROM other than fear, as if you go with stable reliable ROMs, you're not gonna break anything, just don't run Antutu, I hear it red light bricks the N4.
One word
PIE
(assuming you'd flash a rom after rooting)

ok.. think I want to do it... just worries me as no rom i used on the Optimus V worked 100 percent

so i can get root then backup apps then do the bootloader?

No. You need to unlock bootloader then root. That's the order to root the device. Unlocking the bootloader will erase everything on your phone.
This is a nexus device, most roms work very well and are on par if not better than stock.

I agree.
I had the Optimus V like two years ago. I really liked that phone because it had awesome battery life. But the development was total crap. There was either little or no work done on it. The software was just mediocre.
The roms and kernels in this forum are quite mature and perfect for daily use.

Download the program now and do the following.
Here's a video tutorial.
Please watch it first and get a feel of it first!
If you follow the tutorial, you should be fine. Do not miss a step. Most folks miss a step and they panic.

I know it's a Nexus 7 video but it's essentially the same for the N4.
And this is the Nexus 4 tutorial if you don't want to use the one above.

Optimus G and Nexus4 is nearly spec
you can flash Nexus4 rom on OptimusG like this
So Get FirefoxOS on Nexus4
Or compile it with your self?

Certainly worked for Ubuntu touch, I'll look at this when I get home. Don't flash before just in case this ROM uses a different partition scheme.

how about it?
what working?
Yes it works!
Yes, It works on LG Optimus G with Nexus 4 ported Firefox OS.
But because of differences between these devices, some functions don't work.
You can see my experience of Firefox os on E975 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMzy5xvC9cc

It is the easiest way to root, yours is just the D802 variant, follow the video. The actual tool is located at the bottom of this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48709232&postcount=869
Easiest Way to root and Install Custom Recovery!
The easiest way to root Lg G2 on Kitkat is by IOROOT method extreamly easy!
I cant post a How TO DO link as i have less then 10 Posts (XDA wont allow until 10 POSTS).
And if you want a custom recovery just install AUTOREC from PlayStore!

So your not a newbie and because of that I will not give you a link. Did you try to click the search button? Or bother to read thread titles?
Try to go to general section, its a hint.
