I've spent a pretty decent amount of time troubleshooting this myself. Probably wiped my phone and put the stock 4.3 on 20 times. If there is already a thread that solves this please point me in the right direction and I apologize for posting about the same issue. Anyway here is my problem.
I tried to put Paranoid Android on my Nexus 4. The specific version is this one here pa_mako-3.99-RC2-20130920. I booted the most updated 4.3 stock version from googles developers website. From what I read the stock 4.3 would have the most up to date radio. After the stock OS was installed I rooted my phone and installed Clock Work Recovery. Once that was done and was working properly I put pa_mako-3.99-RC2-20130920 as well as the most up to date gapps (pa_gapps-full-4.3-20131024-signed) into my phones memory and booted my phone into CWM recovery. I did a factory reset and wipe, installed the two zips and and then wiped the dalvik cache and continued to boot up my phone. When the phone boots everything seems to work properly except... No service.
Did I do anything wrong in my process? I have also tried to imput my carriers APN settings. What information do you need from me? Any ideas? Thanks guys.
Reflash the ROM. Do a system wipe first. Flash a radio if this doesnt work.

That's been done a blue million times. But I will go ahead and try again. I'll let you know the outcome. Do you have a link for a specific radio?
Update: Wiping the system and then reflashing the rom did nothing. Now updating the bootloader and radio from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020336.

Ok I'll redownload the rom. And no the flashing of the radio did nothing either. I even imput my carries apn settings again. I hit save after entering in the settings and the phone didn't even save the settings.
Are you on an old version of CWM? 4.3 brings SELinux and you may be seeing permissions issues that's preventing you from being able to access the baseband (check under settings)
After redownloading the PA rom and flashing it from the stock 4.3 I have a working up to date version of the PA 3.99 R2. Thanks for the help guys.

Flash via Odin V3.09

Bootloop is a "Soft Brick" and can be recovered using CWM or any CWM based recovery.
Hard Brick is a state where the Device is totally dead for the end user, It will not show any screen activites or respond to buttons or no led activities.
Your is a Soft Brick and few steps will recover your device if followed carefully:
- Use Aroma File Manager to backup your data to External SDCard. Backup "/data/app" to External SDCard. You can also try replacing "/system/app" and "/system/framework" with your ROM "/system" if you suspect that some app or mod has done changes in the /system.
- Do a Full Wipe of Cache/Dalvik and try to boot.
- If not booting then Do a Full Wipe of Cache/Dalvik and install "PhoeniX ROM" and reboot. Wait for 10-15 minutes.
- Wipe Cache/Dalvik and Flash Perseus Kernel and Reboot.
This should bring back you device.
If nothing works then Flash STOCK 4.3 from Odin 3.09 as instructed in forum.
Good Luck.

Ok, if you had before a stock 4.3 Rom, you will not be able to flash anymore a 4.2.2 stock rom. If that rom you are using doesn't work, try a different sammobile stock rom, I suggest the newest 4.3 Rom for your country or carrier, or any fob from a different country with same 3G frequency bands.
Use always Odin 3.07 or 3.09, never use 1.85 except for cfautoroot.
Please, report back your final solution.

You won't ever be able to flash second rom because it is 4.2 and you have 4.3 bootloader.
As last chance, I assume you are using Odin 3.09 and no a different version, try again to flash 4.3 stock rom twice at same time, I mean, first, uncheck reboot after flash option, first flash, check back reboot option, second flash, and unwire and see what happen.
If this doesn't fix it sorry, but it would sound as any PCB damage (hardware), and you should go to SAT.
Here in this point, I am so sorry, but our sub

You save it in a safe place. If you ever have a corrupted efs partition you can use adb to flash the backup you made.

i have an EFS probleme , my IMEI did not change after flashing 6.0.1 but still the phone is not able to connect to a cell network i have my EFS backed up with TWRP i need help !
So my question is, after/before any flashing process, we have to wipe everything usually, so what is the best way to backup my data, in a way that I can retrieve them quickly, Titanium Backup isn't a good option I'm afraid, the free version that I own makes this process really painful.
Since Custom Recovery's are Born TWRP is the best way to backup and Restore your data.
Titanium Backup only backsup App and App data! SO TWRP to the rescue .. U need Root tho! but u can temporary Flash twrp to backup Only and then root !

Oh I'm confused, I can backup data through TWRP and restore it in different/higher firmware?
btw, what's quite important to me is the apps and their data, though I won't really mind if the answer to the previous question is yes

Nope u cannot flash the backup as is Takes Full system ! you have option to backup only apps but i have never tried flashing to on higher firmware so Titanium Backup is Good for apps and App data u can use to pro/HAcked apk!

It is possible to back up only the data partition, but restoring it can be a big problem if Sony changes the partition layout between ROM versions.
I use Titanium Backup since my Galaxy S, never failed me. Well worth the couple of dollars.
It's worth mentioning that some of the fw like Concept, Nougat DP4 don't have root or recovery, so the above mentioned methods will not help.

Yeah, cool post! on the same tone:

If you're comment was related to the availability of recovery for the 2 mentioned FW, this is only valid for unlocked bootloader. Most of the users are on LB

But DU have a very short battery life, so i want MM back.... But i heard thats imposible, becouse it will brick my phone to downgrade the vercion.. Please tell me what to do!! Thanks
Any 7+ custom has nothing from stock Nougat. You are safe.
After restore - you need also stock recovery if you want update to nougat.
For stock remember:
OTA update is only for full stock firmware.
Downgrade(7-6) is possible without bootloader and gpt.
After downgrade any ota update can end with hard brick.
