Correct, there is no restart option unless you are using an Xposed module, or a Custom Rom that has the restart option enabled. There are apps you can use but they require a rooted device.

If you hold the power button down it will restart.

You can use the capcative buttons at bottom of your phone

Another option is to use an app like "Quick Boot" which allows you to reboot your phone directly into recovery without any hardware buttons.

But you need a working rom, other than that you are correct

Is it possible to change the options displayed when we long press the power button?

All other phones I have give me the option to restart the phone, but not on the N4.
Is there a way to show the "Restart" option when the power button is long pressed without rooting and installing custom rom?
Thanks.
Short answer: Nope
The Restart/Reboot or even Boot to recovery is a feature of most Custom ROMs and is not built with Android.
But as the Nexus 4 has no handy battery to move you have to hold the power button for several secons which then reboot the phone. That should be the easiest way to solve your 'problem'.
HTC also includes those features in Sense in its power button options. It can be done with a fairly simple mod and eventually I'm sure someone will post one in the dev section if it not already in there.

I don't know why is it not in vanilla Android. HTC, Samsung phones have the option.
For me, I use the Restart button more than the "Power Off" button.
I use Power Toggles from the Play Store to restart, reboot and get to recovery.

I use an app called Quickboot. It gives you the option to reboot, reboot into bootloader, reboot into recovery, etc.
+1 for Quickboot...simple and effective!

Fast boot unable to connect

So i seem to have a strange problem, i downloaded CM 10.1 flashed with the latest GAPPS however upon boot i get "Unfortunantely the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" whenever i click ok i get "unfortunantly , setup wizard has stopped". I am unable to access power the power menu or do anything besides click ok. I can access the files on my Nexus however due to not being able to cold boot into recovery I am stuck. Whenever i use a toolkit and try to reflash to stock it sticks on "waiting on device" anyone have any advice

I had this when running TWRP and if I remember you hold the "off" button down until it starts to reboot and then quickly hold the up button while it's rebooting.
You may be able to just hold the start and up button at the same time then turn the start button loose when you see the logo.
Again; I can't remember exactly what I did but it's safe to say to device is not broken.
One note: I was never able to get TWRP to run correctly (consistently) on this device without at least some issues.
I use CMR with no problems.
Also when I had this problem i had to do a complete wipe to get completely into download mode...
Good luck...

That's correct! it will auto restart so you have to get your timing right. Try holding down the start button and as soon as the screen goes blank release the start button and grab the up button..

Ok. I got it. Full wife allowed me to fully power off. Once powered off in achieved download mode by holding volume up and plugging device into laptop via micro usb.

This is why I abandoned TWRP which was always my favorite, but not for this device.
I'm glad your up and going again...

Try flashing a stock rom again, or if you have warranty better go at the store again and tell them your problem

The phone is not More Warranty and I can not flash the original rom just go into recovery because the phone restarts all the time ... but since you just insert the battery the phone begins to restart without crushing any key may not be the key power stuck ?

I'm trying to understand you, if you can't access to any of that than you somehow hard bricked your device, and I suggest you to take your phone to service. Try to remember what you done with your phone before that happened
Sent from my SM-G800H using Tapatalk
Is it reboot instantly or after 2-3 seconds?
If you got enough time try to clear cache in recovery

So you are telling that your buton is constantly pressed and that you have no need to hold it when entering a download mod?
Sent from my SM-G800H using Tapatalk
Yes .... although I can crush
Hmm it stuck on force rebooting same as if you hold power button.
Try holding your button in random moment for few second maybe it fix itself

From what I understood this has nothing to do with rom, it's problem in button on your phone. Take the phone to the service
