Nexus 4 - Received 4.4 OTA - Stuck on Nexus Splash screen...

As the title suggests, after installing Kit Kat (OTA) and waiting for the device to finish the process, my Nexus 4 is now stuck on the Nexus splash screen. Have let it sit for 20+ minutes now and it will not go any further.
Some assistance is welcome
Thank you

By the way, the phone is completely stock; no root/locked boot loader...and the OTA was pushed to me, not sidel oaded.

Same problem...

Reboot into recovery and wipe cache. (Hold VOL - and Power), in Recovery, (hold Power first then VOL +) to enable the menu.
Be careful with the factory reset option, which in this case will wipe your entire device.
You can also use the adb sideload feature to sideload the OTA package manaully that might fix it. You can download them here with insrtuctions on how to flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145848. You might need adb drivers to have your device recognize, http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

Download the OTA package and follow the Scenario #1 steps from here to flash the OTA manually: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145848
If after that and wiping data in recovery the phone won't work, then you need to do a factory reset in recovery (you will lose all your data).
After factory reset, if it still don't work you need to manually flash the factory image. See the guide links in my signature.

Same case, nothing works

"no command" after installing TWRP in recovery mode

hey guys! first post but I have been lurking here and there before registering.
Sorry if this is the wrong section to post this in. I am trying to root my note 4 and I installed TWRP using Odin. Now when I go into recovery mode to flash SuperSu, it says "no command" with the android guy laying on the floor. I tried the factory reset option and I installed TWRP again but still same problem. I can still load my phone and use it as usual but now I can't go into recovery mode with TWRP and flash supersu to root it. Anyone know how I can fix this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

No one knows?

What is the model number of your Note 4? When you are at the "no command" screen, try holding the volume up button and then press the power button to take you to recovery. I'd that doesn't work try holding the power button and tapping the volume up button quickly and release all buttons and see if it allows yoj to access recovery. I'd these do not work keep trying different button combinations. I'd you still cannot access the recovery menu you may have to Odin the factory firmware and start over. Let me know what happens.

none of those button combinations work. I will install stock firmware on it again and see if that fixes the recovery.

I had this problem in the past, I think the problem was that when I was installing TWRP via Odin that I had not powered off the phone so it looked like it installed but actually didn't, try taking out the battery and then boot into recovery or download mode whatever it is that is used for Odin and install again

If you cannot get into recovery with any button combination boot to download mode and use Odin to flash all 4 files of the factory firmware. That will give you a fresh start. Let me know how it goes.

Use the VOLUME UP/DOWN BUTTONS to scroll to WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET and let it do its thing. When it's done select REBOOT SYSTEM NOW.
Tell me what that does.

but this will erase all my data from the phone

Yes it will but it is the most likely way out of your bootloop. Before you wipe, connect your device to your PC and boot to recovery. Once your PC recognizes your device internal storage, transfer everything that you can think of.

That looks like TWRP didn't stick when you flashed it using Odin. Try a different version of Odin and flash TWRP.

So idk if you've gotten it fixed, but what worked for me was: I had been turning on the phone after odin did its thing, and that caused the oem recovery to reinstall itself. So instead of letting odin auto boot be ready to push the volume up button to put it into twrp recovery. I had to remove my battery to keep it from booting fully.

We need to try another time flash. Conditions - old Odin 3.06, configured to remove reboot.

In ODIN go to 'options' and uncheck 'auto-reboot', then flash TWRP. When it's done, it won't reboot, just pull the battery for several seconds, reinsert it and boot into TWRP Recovery.
Enjoy!

No, and I though it was reset to stock recovery because I did not flash SuperSU following step 7 in this thread

Thanks all

**** HELP ***** Factory Reset STUCK at 99%

After performed wipe cache and firmware update with "Swift&Fast Slim B160 aio" ROM, the phone reboot and stuck at waiting for booting... ==> wait for 3 hours and still show the same as BOOTING.
Performed the factory reset by press Volume Up and Power, the Factory Reset is now stuck at 99%
Please help to the the phone back in working condition.

Resolved yet?

Possible idea
You can probably still load TWRP. Press and hold volume down + power at the same time to load fastboot mode.

ROM Flashing
Obtain a ROM of your choice, and note the location on your computer.
reboot your device into fastboot mode via one of the following options.
1. adb reboot bootloader (requires USB debugging to be turned on).
or...... power off the device then back on with 'vol up' + power button.
Wipe your device.
2. fastboot -w
Update your ROM.
3. fastboot update </path/to/your/RomFile.zip>
Your phone will update and automatically reboot into the new ROM. Try another ROM if Swift & Fast Slim isn't working. Your file could be corrupted.

did u get things fixed?

Trouble flashing TWRP

Hi, everyone.
I have a galaxy s8 SM-G950FD. I have once flashed TWRP and rooted the device successfully.
Then I tried to install a custom ROM but I got bootloop.
After that, I flash official ROM to unbrick my device. But since then, whenever I tried to flash TWRP again I got this message "Verification failed unable to restart your device the integrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data."
My device is still working fine but I want to try to flash a new ROM (even if I may brick my device forever). I don't know what to do. Can you guys give me some advice ?
Thank you!

It's quite a simple fix I think: You need to make a backup of the Data partition and then do a wipe using TWRP. This happens because TWRP cannot handle Samsung's Encryption; the only way to bypass this problem is by formatting once again.

But I cannot boot into TWRP. How can I do that ?

If you're stuck in the bootloop you should press the force reboot key combination: Power Down + Home + Power. After the device restarts switch the Volume Down key for the Volume Up key right after the screen goes blank. That should get you into TWRP (if it's correctly installed), otherwise directly into the stock recovery.

I cant flash/get into TWRP. I tried to boot into stock recovery and do a system wipe/factory reset. Then I flash TWRP again but nothing seem to happen. I tried to boot into recovery and it get me to the stock recovery not TWRP.I did unlock OEM, used Odinv3.12, twrp-3.1.1-2-dreamlte.img.tar.

I had the same issue.
After Odin has flashed the Recovery it performs an auto reboot (if checked in Odin). So at this reboot hold Vol up + Home + Power as soon the screen goes of. You need to be quick. Then it should boot into TWRP.

True, Samsung's stock recovery is very persistent lately and if you tick the auto-reboot you have to be very fast in switching to Recovery mode combo.
Otherwise you can choose not to tick auto-reboot, force restart the device after the TWRP flashing was successful and immediately switch to the Recovery combo.
Here you go: two ways of doing this.
