I flashed the EB01 froyo Rom was asked to update camera went to the last option and it was downloading but I must have hit the screen or something cause it stopped and now when i try to open up the camera it always says camera failed is there a way to update it or am i just screwed ive tried reflashing the EB01 Rom i may try to go to DL09 and the go back to froyo.
Ne ideas?
Try reflashing dl30. Then next time download update for camera. I had to do the same thing.
From my super clean dl30 fascinate
Nope didn't work is there a file in system/apps i need to get or something?
i hope i didn't bork the camera it wont give me the option to update it just says camera failed
Edit: Also tried restoring a backup with CWM and still won't work
Odin???

I was under the impression that it is firmware. Firmware gets programmed into chips, in this case, the camera chip. This sounds like what would happen if you turned your computer off during a BIOS flash. Sounds like the write started, but never finished. I would say that it is toast. My 2 cents.
So theres probably no hope then. wonder if theres ne thing i can get to fix it i tried going to dl09 but that didnt help either what about unrooting and going to dl09 stock ?
I'm not responsible if this bricks your phone because I havent tested it but...
If you create a new shortcut -> activities -> camera firmware. One of the activities listed may allow you to reflash your camera.
Solved
heres how I did it incase this happens to ne 1 else
access secret menu then get code for camera and do cam to phone fw
and that fixed it
how did you access the secret menu?

It sounds like you flashed a modded ROM that went wrong. What did you try and flash? The best way to get back to a working phone would be to flash a non-modded firmware, then you can try and work out what you need to do to get the modded ROM of your choice working again.
Phone worked fine with the modded rom "Darky's Extreme Edition 8.x". I turned it off and tried on again. I have not tried to install something.

I would still recommed flashing back to a non-modded ROM to get your phone back to life as a starting point and making sure that it is stable. When you have a stable working phone then you can look at re-flashing a modded ROM again. When you originally flashed the Darky's ROM, did you follow all the instructions from the developer fully?
I would like also flash a official rom, but I can not access the downloading mode.

Sorry, I hadn't noted that you can't get into download mode at all. There are various threads on the forums about getting into download mode on an SGS if the three button combination isn't working, I suggest you search for these and see if any of them work for you. If not then you will have to get hold of a USB jig to force your phone into download. There's a good thread about USB jigs on here and you'll be able to buy one on ebay, I bought one off ebay a while ago and it works great. Good luck!
I found the solution.
Really pisses me off that it was this simple.
Turn on your phone into bootloader
Leave it on bootloader until the battery drains 100%
You can tell it is drained when the phone looks like it is bricked and when you plug it in a red light shows on the notification light
Let it charge for ten minutes
Boot the phone
It should boot. Yeah. Seriously.
It looks like a battery fault of some sort. Welcome

So two days ago my Nexus 4 died, and i charged it back up. When I tried to turn it on, it would go to my boot screen, but it would bootloop for 5 minutes, and then restart. This never happened before even the other two times my phone died. I have tried doing a lot of things including switching PA for CM11, and getting stock everything from google. Everything goes succesfully, but again, for every different boot logo, it does the same thing. It really pisses me off beacuse i cant find anyone else with a similar problem, so i dont know what to do.. Also, since the thing cant boot, i cant even turn it back in to tmobile, because it is unlocked and they don't help with anything unlocked... any help would be appreciated Also, if i need to proivide more info on the software i can

Did you try to wipe Dalvik Cache & Cache in recovery after flashing back to stock?
If the above doesn't work then do this:
Boot into recovery(go to bootloader(vol. down+power) and select recovery). Use "adb pull /sdcard/the_folder_goes_here/and_so_on.jpg" to pull whatever you want to backup(pics, music etc) and flash stock ROM from Google https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occam
It's the best way.

+1. And if that doesn't work and you have a hardware issue, boot into fastboot and use
fastboot oem lock
That'll lock the bootloader

Well yeah, but flashing the stock rom just left me with a bootloop, just with those 4 rings..
boot into recovery, see if your computer detect your phone as android device, try use minimal adb and fastboot, it happen to me once, and success to fix it. if it cant fix it, try use nexus root toolkit, the tools here on xda nexus 4 forum. choose back to stock, and dont forget to choose current status as soft-bricked/bootloop. let me know how it goes.. we'll figure it out
HELP ME PLEASE.
I have the same issue where no matter which factory ROM i install using soft bricked option, or fastboot my Google Nexus 4 will not get past the black screen with the four circular colours which come together to form a white circle then repeat.
I know the proximity sensor is defective since it is broken and I am wondering if this could be the problem?
What else can I try?
Could a custom ROM be a solution?
Update. I somehow managed to get it up and running on factory version 4.3 but I flashed/ used an older radio.img "cwm-radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.48.img" got it from here

Gday again, just curious as to how you went with going back to android 4.2.2. Is your phone back in action? I was stoked when mine worked again, even though it took me 12 hrs to make it happen lol.
This might be helpful, was for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/nexus-4-bootloop-official-4-3-ota-t2595057
I fixed it, and had it fixed for maybe 4 months, but now it is back in a bootloop. What i did to fix it the first time beats me, i just randomly flashed 4.4 roms, and it booted once. I used adb sideload for some stuff, but i am gonna keep trying.

There is a problem, seems like the lg drivers are not compatible with windows 8.1...
Found a fix, check the forum page
First, some info about the phone. It's a SCH-I545, I rooted it the day I got it (I forget which method), still running stock, and it's been running great for months.
But a week or so ago, I grabbed my phone to use it, and noticed it was on the Android system recovery screen. So I pulled the battery a couple of times to restart, and every time it's same thing.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this, or what I can do?
Thanks

Mate ,
If every time reboot into recovery it may be soft bricked , did you try factory reset it? if that does not work you may have to reflash your rom again , if you are stock you have to use Odin
Can you enter download mode? If so flash custom recovery with odin (philz is best) download custom rom and put on external storage then Flash custom rom with new recovery

Thanks for the advice! Sadly, the usb port on my phone stopped working awhile back (I have to use an external battery charger), so I'm probably out of luck if flashing is the only way to go. I know there probably isn't one, but do you know of any way to flash something from sd?

You can flash a ROM from the SD card, but not recovery.
IF the USB port is fried and you can't get it to boot to the ROM, then I don't think you could get recovery on it.

Holy...CRAP.
I dismissed your advice about buttons at first, but a few hours later when I was dismantling my phone for the hundredth time during the two weeks that it's been broken, I decided that it couldn't hurt to check. Sure enough, disassembled, all the internal buttons are fine.
The buttons on the phone's outter shell, however? Totally bent. I straighten them out, put it all back together, and power it on. And it WORKED.
Dear friend, and I do consider you a friend, you gave me back something I thought I had lost, something I couldn't afford to replace.
From the bottom my heart, thank you. Thank you so very much.

Any time my friend , glad you fix it.
Hi there,
So I formated my redmi 4 prime and installed TWRP and flashed Lineage OS 14.1. After finishing it up I noticed the screen rotation was not working. When I turn it to landscape, the screen goes to portrait. When I turn it straight, the screen goes landspace. It is literally switched.
I thought it woud be something wrong with the ROM so I flashed a MIUI miuipro_v6.0.1_markw_8.4.26 and for my surprise, the issue is still there. Also, when opening the compass app, the compass doesn't move, so I think something is wrong with the sensors.
I know it is not hardware because before flashing all this it was working properly.
Any advice?
Do a fastboot flash maybe!
