Hey guys, need your help.

I accidentally flashed a 4.3 kernal on AOKP 4.2 - whoops!

So, now when I try to boot my nexus 4, all I get is the google sign with unlocked symbol for about 4-7 seconds, then nothing.

I cant get to fastboot, or TWRP recovery.

What should I do to get a working phone (without loosing SD card stuff, etc)

Thanks in advance - sorry for the noob questions.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Fr33L4nc3r:
Did you tried to shut down the phone and then hold power + volume down button to get in fastboot mode ?

From there you should be able to go into recovery and reflash a correct kernel or the ROM you're actually using (which include an appropriate kernel)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Shftup:
Well, that is the problem. I cannot enter recovery to do a reflash. Fastboot is not working.

When I try to hold power+vol down - sometimes I get nothing, sometimes I just get the google logo and unlock symbol, but nothing after that.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Shftup:
Ok, I just got to fastboot, but now lost it

so I must be doing something wrong to get to fastboot

Power plus Vol Down correct?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Fr33L4nc3r:
Exactly.

Keep trying. You might want to release the power button (keep holding volume down) at some point if it takes too much time, because power button held between 5-10 sec usually triggers a basic reboot ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Shftup:
Okay - I got this bad boy to work. I did a recovery and restored my backup.

thanks all

When in the instructions www.wugfresh.com/nrt you say:

2. Configure your drivers if you haven’t already using the driver guide (If you aren’t sure use Step 3 of the driver guide to test your drivers).

What guide do you mean? I can't find it..

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
In the toolkit itself. Using the big button on the main interface for driver configuration.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RussianCode:
Guys, I wanted to ask ad see what you guys could suggest.

I am making the tool revert my N4 to stock, but when it says it's installing it will freeze in the middle of the command.

I can't get past that.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] NYLimited:
Did you try force flash instead of regular flash? (I don't have it in front of me but I think it is called 'force flash' or similar)

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RussianCode:
I tried flashing the Pac rom but it would just reboot the phone. And I already deleted system. I could not mount the Phone to copy recovery files over. Or even a different rom. So I tried this method to at least get into the OS and copy files over.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
Hey guys, can anyone confirm if this toolkit would work on 4.3 JWR66Y?

It's completely stock, unrooted, bootloader locked. Would want to give it a try myself but just wanted to make sure, as the OP didn't say if this was updated to work on 4.3.

Thanks!!

**editL:

Nevermind found the answer a couple of pages back. :banghead:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
Thanks to Wug for this awesome toolkit! Did everything for me and it's just great!

Anyway, I can confirm that phone isn't properly rooted on first try with flash recovery checked. Did it again without flash recovery and worked fine, and recovery was installed too, I'm guessing that happened on the first run. I was on 4.3 JWR66Y if that helps in trying to replicate the issue.

Nevertheless awesome toolkit and did the job do much thanks to Wug. :thumbup:

Hi guys,

I've downloaded the lastest version of Toolkit, I have unlocked my phone, but now, when I try to root it, after it restarts on bootloader mode and says something about TWRP, the device doesn't boot up and the Toolkit gets stuck on Waiting for device..

I googled a bit and I read that was a problem with Toolkit 1.6.6, hasn't it been solved yet?

What can I do?

Thanks.

Hi, I'm using Nexus 4 4.3 uprooted, if I just root it, can I still update OTA to 4.4?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] imeem:
Is it just me or backing up and restoring with the toolkit is not reliable? It's doesn't back all some apps like FIFA 14, chrome, firefox, etc....

i rooted/unlocked my phone fine on JWR66y

Worse case scenario, you can't. But u can just download the factory image of 4.3 to restore everything back to stock, and then do OTA. Or, you download the 4.4 factory image and flash it with this toolkit.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hughfollett:
Hi guys! Something strange is happening on my hand. I use this toolkit to install drivers on my PC with windows 7 64bit. It happens that I somehow loose the installed drivers, in my case the samsung ones. With the others my phone doesn't get recognized at all. So this is the situation: I install the samsung drivers with this toolkit and everything goes well, then after some days I connect the phone with the original usb cable and the PC doesn't recognize it. At this point I have to reinstall the drivers. I'm running on stock locked 4.3 as of now, because I'm worried that something may happen and my n4 won't get recognized. It happened more than twice. Can anyone help with this?

Than you very much in advance!

Im on CWM and its preventing OTA updates, how do I install the 4.3 update? I downloaded the official 4.3 occam-jwr66y-factory-74b1deab.tgz file from google. Do I do the ADB sideload? It doesnt sound like its what I want.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Use the "Flash Stock + Unroot" feature. This will wipe, so backup things first.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] NooBs7yL3:
I'm actualy with Paranoid Android, I want to return back with the stock ,I want to make a back up before (of data/media) I've selected jwr66v as android build but it backs up only 35 mb why doesn't back up all the music and other files?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
If its only backing up 35mb, then something is definitely interrupting it, I am not sure what or why that it is happening to you, but you can work around it. For backing up music and picture files you really don't need to use the toolkit. You can just plug it in to your comp via usb and copy paste those folders from your devices internal storage onto your computer. Then use the toolkit to backup your apps by making an android backup file (without shared or system checked). That would probably be the best way to go about it. Sorry that data/media backup is not working properly for your on your setup.. It works for me on numerous devices and builds and is just issuing a simple adb pull cmd.. so technically it should work. There is nothing I would or could script differently.

Sorry for noob question...will this wipe sdcard too?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Yes. Unfortunately the Nexus line of devices do not have an sd-ext partition, so flashing stock wipes everything.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] NooBs7yL3:
Ok thanks, another question, the Paranoid is a combination of jss15j and jwr66v, for restoring the stock ,on the toolkit what build have I to select "jwr66v" or "any" ?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
It doesn't matter what build you select for flashing stock. But the most accurate choice would be "Custom ROM".

need help restoring back to stock

Hello,

I need some help restoring back to stock. I am currently running CM 10.1 (4.2.2) and I am trying to restore back to stock (4.30). The baseband I have now is the .48. When I try to restore back to stock using the "flash stock + unroot", it says the basebands do not match. I then used the "Force flash mode" because I thought it would also restore back the stock baseband which is .84. It flashed the 4.3 but when I check the baseband, it is still .43. I tried using the advanced utility to restore the stock kernel but it did not work. It only shows a black screen after temporarily flashing the kernel.

How do I flash back the stock .84 baseband for 4.3?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Your instinct to use force flash mode should have worked. I am not sure why it didn't. First retry force flashing 4.3. If that doesn't work try advanced utilities flash "radio/baseband" button and navigate to the 4.3 radio img. It will reside in the extracted 4.3 factory pack in the toolkits data/factory_packs directory.

If that still doesn't work.. Then you may have to try some more advanced adb stuff. I could walk you through it. Hopefully it just works with the other suggestions. Cheers.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] voltz5k:
So I flashed using the radio/baseband button and that worked. However, when I check the storage, it only says 5.6GB of storage is available but I have the 16GB model. How do I fix this?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Factory reset or reflaah stock again.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] voltz5k:
When I use the flash stock + unroot, is it supposed to flash the the stock recovery as well? I still have the CWM recovery on there after flashing with this method.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Yes. It should flash all IMG files to each corresponding partition. Please review the output from the flash stock script.. And consider enabling force flash mode (toolkits option menu) if you see errors about not meeting certain requirements.

AOSPA 4.4 Kitkat

Hi, noob question... I'm testing AOSPA 4.4, after flashing it I loose the custom recovery and the root.

Can I use this tool to root again my N4? or other tips...

I just need this to be ready to come back to the stock room when come out the 4.4 factory img.

thanks,

Max
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Yes. Use "Any Build" for rooting it. And yes, you can use 'Flash Stock + Unroot" for either flashing the 4.4 factory img pack directly when google releases it. Or flashing back to 4.3* with force flash mode (in toolkits options) enabled and then taking the OTA.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mapo72:
Thanks Wug, I will try.

EDIT: done, my N4 is rooted again with CWM recovery.

Thanks,

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] David9519:
I have a problem.

I had Android 4.4 installed.

Then I wanted to flash another 4.4 Rom, but I had bootloop.

After many tried I just wanted to flash stock rom via Nexus 4 Root Toolkit.

I also tried force flash option, but it stucks on google logo about 2 min and then on the bootanimation :/

Any ideas?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Dragonswithin:
If you boot into TWRP you should be able to use the toolkit to flash stock, I have done this a few times.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] twowheeler:
You're awesome wug! Answering most of the questions by yourself.

Will definitely use this when flashing the 4.4 factory image
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] lmarranzino:
Ok I am stumped so please don't laugh....

I received a replacement device, It seemed there was Driver issues, I got it rooted but when trying to connect to the same PC now I get charging only.

I then searccccccccccccccched everyplace including GOOGLE... Tried all the tricks and tips I could find. I thought let me see if I go back to 4.2.2 it may work. NO success I even tried an older PC with Win XP it seemed to catch it and I started the unroot process and got stuch it seemed it went through the channels and NOW nothing.

Good News is I can still use the phone just cannot connect to the PC for nothing except to charge. Please any thoughts.

We can updates our phones to 4.4. with "Flash stock + Unroot", when google let official update for Nexus 4 (factory img), without manually downloading anything. I am right ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ryfly65:
If I download 4.4, can I use your toolkit to install it?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Yes, when Google releases new factory packs I typically strive to have it listed in the toolkit within 24 hours. In that case you can utilize the auto-download extract and flash feature in "Flash Stock + Unroot", otherwise you can use "other..." "I downloaded it myself" and use the factory img package you downloaded directly from Google's website.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Yeah, In what format? If its a a custom ROM. Then you can use flash zips in advanced utilities. If its an official factory pack from google you can use flash stock + unroot.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ryfly65:
I would like to use the offiical factory pack 4.4 from Google, but I'm not sure where to get it. I hear that the AOSP version is just like the original but I'm not sure where I get that either! lol! I fail. :o

How do I specify a custom zip and/or how do I specify which official pack to use with Factory stock + unroot in the settings?

---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 AM ----------

I tried using the "Pure AOSP 4.4" rom, and using the Flashzips utility. It is able to Push the zip, reboot into bootloader, check fastbood status, boot modified boot img, push script generated opensourcerecovery, reboot back into the bootloader, and Booting TWRP temporarily... But then after that point, it goes into a blank screen and stays that way. Should I try a different recovery? If so, how do I make the Flash zips utility use a different custom recovery?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Maybe try a google search next time.. ;)

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Try pressing the Flash Stock + Unroot button...

The toolkit walks you through its scripts.. providing lots of info. To learn more about features.. Try actually pressing the button. There are plenty of confirmation dialogues throughout the program to ensure the user knows what's going on and agrees to it before continuing.

If you have specific questions after you actually try it.. Then I can try and answer them.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Oh. Please try enabling alternate "fastboot boot" syntax in the toolkits main options menu.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ryfly65:
Okay it's giving me TWRP instructions for wiping my phone, except that the zip file that I want to use is in the !ReadyToFlash folder. Will wiping it take out the zip file I want to use?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
No. That is a user data wipe. The TWRP wipe won't clear your internal storage. Cheers.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ryfly65:
So I followed the TWRP instructions for the Flash zips utility using aosp mako ota. I wiped the data, and the dalvik, and then flashed the zip in the folder, but then it got stuck on the boot screen until it showed a dead android with a red triangle. I read that that particular zip that I am trying to install is having issues with TWRP. How do I switch it to CM?

Is this the way?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] un.droid:
first of all i wanna thank you wugfresh for your amazing tool, i never had any problems using it with my old galaxy nexus and nexus 4 for the first time. i flashed 4.4 rom and lost root and custom recovery (was latest cwm). when i select root + install custom recovery and select in the option that i wanna use CWM, i always get message there the tool cant find twrp recovery and it wants to download it for me. i dont wanna use twrp, why am i keep getting this message?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Ahh. Sorry if this is misleading. It still uses TWRP temporarily to root your device, even you selected the option to have it flash CWM. The reason being - TWRP supports openrecoveryscript. Whereas CWM locks out this useful functionality. The toolkit uses openrecoveryscript for many operations so TWRP will often be utilized. If you select CWM however, it will do exactly what you want: flash CWM and root.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] WugFresh:
Yup. If you do that it will show another interface. Select "Latest TWRP" and it will do the rest. :)
