If you want to install Pure Nexus again the process should be the same as any other ROM installation. Boot into TWRP, then perform a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache), then install ROM + Gapps.
If you want to go back to the stock ROM it's slightly different. Boot into TWRP and wipe only data, then flash the factory images. If you want root you'll need to flash TWRP and SuperSU again.

You'll need to flash the correct corresponding vendor image to suit the ROM.

It has to suit the ROM that you're going to flash, not the ROM you're currently on. You tried doing what? You must be doing something wrong.

So you flashed the 0506 build of Pure Nexus? What gapps did you flash? You'd need to flash the MTC19T vendor as that's the build that Pure Nexus 0506 is based on. You were told that you'd need to flash the vendor a couple of posts ago, falling to do so is probably what's wrong.

You have to download the stock image manually. The link from the toolkit is broken.

Ive finally done it, Panic OVER! haha thanks for all the help people.
Hi XDA.
After growing a pair of balls I've decided tonight is the night that I am going to unroot my phone, put it back to stock ROM and get it off of franco.Kernel. I am doing this because I want to start fresh and get it on Paranoid Android.
(I currently have a January nightly of CM 10.1, franco.Kernel r53 and unlocked bootloader whatnot)
I am looking for the stock kernel for the Nexus 4, but am worried about flashing the wrong one. I'm not saying like I'm going to flash a Samsung kernel or something stupid like that, I just mean that since I am on android 4.2.1 and if I flash a kernel that is made for android 4.2 can I screw up my Nexus 4?
Any tips?
Thanks a ton.
Edwin
As long as the kernel is for the Nexus 4 then you should be okay. You can get all the resources here.

make sure your download isn't corrupted and you downloaded for the correct device. Should be fine.
What's the point of going through all the time to unroot and flash back to stock?
Why not just do a full wipe and flash paranoid android?

I was wondering how nobody else asked that question earlier because that's exactly what I'm thinking.
He's going from 4.1 to 4.2 he needs to flash the new bootloader and radio too

I have heard of the digitizer blowing from flashing wrong kernels. I suggest only flashing kernels made for your specific device.

You should add one more ball to that actually make it two more as you are at it. First you should install latest cwm recovery and root your phone. Then go to the recovery and make a backup. After that you can continue with flashing custom Roms and kernels.

Hello! I have TWRP installed on my device without root or custom rom/kernel. Is there a way I can just flash the stock recovery to get future OTA updates? I prefer using a method that doesnt require admin rights on my pc, because I am not using my own pc for the moment.
You can get the factory image, extract ALL the zips and when you find the recovery image do "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img".

That's the problem. Efrant says you have to use 7zip and not any other thing to extract the image, but I cant install it because I dont have admin rights on this pc.
You can use Flashify from Play Store to flash recovery images without PC.

Yes, yes and yes.
You can use Flashify to make a backup, restore and flash.
Remember you can only flash 3 times a day unless you pay for the full version.

No I mean making a backup in twrp, install a custom rom. New version of android comes out: (let's say 5.0 because updating CM for example from 4.3. to 4.3.1 isnt that hard I think), just restore the backup and flash this recovery in fastboot. (without flashify)
Then I will get the OTA?

I unlocked the phone using the Nexus root toolkit. I used the flash zip function in the toolkit to flash the zip file of Xposed (xposed-v79-sdk23-arm64.zip) into the phone, but now I got a message saying the unfortunately NFC service has stopped. This message keeps popping up no matter I choose Report or OK, so now I can't do anything with the phone. Anyone can help with this issue? Very much appreciated.

I didn't install twrp recovery. I just used the flashed zip function in the Nexus root toolkit, which I believe (I might be wrong) says it would use twrp temporarily to flash zip files. What I did is backup the apps before unlocking the phone. I unlocked the phone and flashed the zip file of xposed.
