I will have a closer look at this issue later this day. At the moment I don't have a PC available to check what went wrong. Keep in mind that the whole thing is generated automatically and I don't test the zips before releasing them.

Concerning issues related to CWM itself I can't tell anything as I use TWRP.

Edit:

Fixed the error regarding flashing. I thought I had fixed it but I didn't. Stupid error messing up with assignments and comparing and a little bit of copy & paste.

Here's a flashable zip of CWM Recovery v6.0.3.8

Flashed and no errors, but I haven't tested to backup & restore with this version...

Script was from version v6.0.3.5 (Thanks to devs who made it).

Try it and share your experiences ;)

Note: I wont take responsible if u destroy ur phone or/and data while using this.

Do it at your own risk.

Are there actually changelogs with these new versions? As much as I like flashing and I have flashaholic syndrome, I also want to know what's in these new recoveries. The last time we got a new version (6.0.3.6), it was bugged with backups and for some reason it was left up there as the most recent version for months before 6.0.3.8 hit.

You still can't flash the CWM image from the CWM website? Since its official now? Still have to "boot" it?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Stryder5:
I think this probably has to do something with the fact that we still have Secure Boot enabled. We don't have an insecure boot image that can be flashed yet. I could be wrong though.

Help :(

I was attempting to unlock bootloader and install CWM. Now the device won't boot past bootloader. What should I do now?

Edit:choosing Start in bootloader then I am stuck in the Google logo.

Edit 2:Nexus sign... then I rebooted back to bootloader

Edit 3: I used Nexus 4 toolkit to reflash factory image. Then proceeded to root it. I guess CWM will have to wait....

Flash this: http://www.mediafire.com/?57zmq7yw089gcr8

With

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This should flash back the stock recovery from factory image. How did you flash the CWM (if this does not work)?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Stryder5:
I'm a little confused. What is the point of your disabler if Secure Boot prevents a permanent flash of recovery? Or do you think that the disabler may allow CWM to be a permanent flash?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jacobmllr95:
Secure Boot isn't responsible for reverting back to stock recovery!

A script (system/etc/install-recovery.sh) is responsible for that which comes with stock Android.

This script runs on every reboot and reverts the recovery back to the stock one.

The disabler renames the script so it can't be executed on reboot.

That's all :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Stryder5:
I flashed the disabler through CWM. Then I flashed the recovery through fastboot.

I reboot into fastboot and attempt to go to recovery. The phone will show the Google image twice, then the Nexus image, then boot up into the phone.

Doesn't appear to work for me.

I'll go ahead and flash the stock recovery back.

Not quite yet. You can just flash the zip in the OP. It'll take care of this for you. However, CWM still won't flash properly yet until an update is released. Just be patient until this thread is updated.

At this point, CWM will boot, but will not flash.

FYI:

After updating (fastboot) my recovery to 6.0.4.3 and dirty flashing Purity ROM update I`ve lost access to mobile network (no data, no calls).

I was trying to sort this out by factory reset, couple of roms flashed from a scratch with no luck. Reverting to 6.0.3.1 solved the issue in the end.

Any suggestions ?

Use any file Explorer with root access, like ES Explorer, or root browser and navigate to the directory as listed in the post before.

Another thing you can try is to install rom manager, then go to manage and restore backups, you can delete them from there

BTW guys, where are you guys getting the 6.0.4.4 IMG from? I couldn't find it in the clockworkmod site. Latest I found is v6.0.4.3

flashable zips available here for the Nexus 4

j.mp/n4twrp for TWRP

j.mp/n4cwm for CWM Touch and normal

Flash it in recovery and you are all done. You can revert back to either recoveries by flashing the version you want to.

all zips have been tested on my N4. recovery img files are sourced from clockworkmod.com for CWM and goo.im or techerrata.com for TWRP.

With nothing better to do while I myself recover from yesterday evening, here is the image file for 6.0.4.5 (touch).

Download

This needs to be flashed with fastboot (or a toolkit that supports this), and the commands are as follows:

To boot into CWM without flashing:

fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-mako.img

To flash CWM to the recovery:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-mako.img

I myself use M. Skip's toolkit to flash recovery etc.

If you don't have fastboot, you can get it here:

I took a look at the script- this is exactly the same way I did it with the GN- I just renamed the "recovery-from-boot.p" to "recovery-from-boot.p.bak" to prevent the stock recovery from re-installing each boot. This makes things relatively easy and if you want to do an OTA upgrade you just remove the .bak extension and reboot to get back to stock!

Newest touch version works like a champ. Flashed a cpl zips to make sure and all good. I'll make and restore a backup here in a sec. But I just let ROM manager flash it and good to go. It does automatically reboot after a certain amount of time of inactivity. I actually like that feature. Anyhow, we have a fully functional recovery for all intents and purposes. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit: Making a backup fails halfway through from what I can tell. In recovery it even shows a folder for a backup but when you reboot and look for it, there is nothing in the backup folder in cwm folder.

Hey I'm still very impressed. This thing has barely been in people's hands for two days and we have come this far.

I'm with ray on this as well. Running 6.0.18, when making a backup, it only partially makes it. When using file explorer, under cwm there is no back up. No worries though, I'm sure it will be figured out soon enough.

If you need to make a backup, use the Nexus 4 toolkit. It can make a full nandroid backup via ADB. I can confirm that the backup was successful on my system, and the MD5 sums match.

I'm fine with this, just wanting to double-check.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Stryder5:
You can always just flash the stock recovery back...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] irishrally:
This the is process I followed to get root (mostly stuff in the OP, just describing what I did exactly):

1. Download the latest CWM recovery to your PC from here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager (I used the 6.0.1.9 touch)

2. Power off your phone. Power up into the bootloader by holding the volume down and power button at the same time.

3. Connect your phone, now in the bootloader/fastboot mode, to your PC.

4. Open up a cmd window or terminal window and unlock the phone by typing: fastboot oem unlock (use the volume button to scroll up to select yes with the power button) If you don't have your PATH set up you will need to open the cmd window from the folder where you placed fastboot, or at least execute the fastboot command from that folder.

5. flash cwm by typing the following in cmd window (make sure you are executing the command from the folder where you saved the recovery image: fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img

6. After a successful recovery flash, use the volume button to scroll to "recovery" in the bootloader menu and select it with the power button. EDIT: It looks like you don't need to do this, or step 7, as the latest cwm recovery automatically prevent the stock recovery from flashing on reboot. Also, if the phone hangs on reboot, you can hold down the power button to power off the phone, reboot into recovery via the bootloader, factory reset, and reboot.

7 Once in recovery, select reboot and you will be prompted to stop the stock recovery re-flash. Select Yes.

8. Once rebooted, go through the initial setup, then download SuperSU 0.98 from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/282/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.98.zip

9. Turn your phone off. Boot into the bootloader by holding volume down and the power button. From the bootloader screen, scroll to recovery and select it. In recovery, select install zip, choose zip to apply, hit "/0" to view the sdcard, then select downloads, and select the supersu0.98.zip. Flash it and reboot.

Initially, I tried adb sideloading supersu immediately after flashing cwm (after step 6). Supersu flashed fine but it hung on the reboot. I think you need one boot before trying to flash supersu.
