[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dummy decoy:
do you connect your phone to computer via usb 3.0 port? (especially on windows 8) through usb 3.0 port phone won't be found correctly. try to change usb port. before starting the toolkit make sure that your phone is connected to computer already. if nothing works try to boot your phone in fastboot manually. for that turn on your phone with button combination "volume down + power"

edit: before doing something manually i thought it's better to make sure there is nothing wrong with your drivers etc. i am not sure if n-cry does it but there are other toolkits which can verify the driver settings are ok or not. and they can guide how to do this settings. however when it comes to rooting and cwm installing they didnt work for me. thats why i used n-cry and for that part i strongly recommend

Mine works connected to a USB 3.0 port on an extension cable. They're backward compatible with USB 1.1/2.0, not sure why it would matter.

Hi, I am on the Stock 4.3 ROM and wanted to flash a custom recovery. But I always face the following problem: When the toolkit says the flashing process is done, I don't get into the custom recovery as usual, I just see a black screen and nothing happens. To exit this screen I have to hold the power button for some seconds. This happens both when trying to flash TWRP and CWM.

Why is that?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Alexandre83:
Works on JWR66Y?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Can I root stock 4.3 with this toolkit?

I tried to flash a recovery(twrp) after unlocking the bootloader and it said the files were missing and it cancelled the flash. Maybe the recovery file wasn't saved to the directory where it would have been pulled from to flash it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] scarnia:
factory reset!

Hi, is it supposed to perform a factory reset after rooting the device????? I just lost all my data!!, I thought rooting doesn't involved this.

If it is not common, i have to remark that i have my data encrypted, I don't know if it affects.

Nevertheless, for what I know there is no possible solution (to recover the data). If Im wrong please let me know.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] mylord92:
Same problem. Bootloader unlocked but when i try root or recovrey "Required Files Not Found" :\

Edit: In Germany language mode, root and flash recovery success :)

Which option should I use to just get root?

Will I have to factory reset device? Will I lose data?

My version is JWR66Y
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nexuses:
No
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] technojinn:
Choose the Unlock Root in the 1-click options. Make sure you have the frivers installed before starting. For me, after the OEM unlock, It did reset my phone. So i ended up loosing all the data on it. so make sure to back up.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] punk2x:

Only two days ago I wiped my N4 and set it up again manually, which means I'm running JWR66V so far. Now I read that your Toolkit can update our beloved Phones to JWR66Y. Can I update via your Toolkit without loosing all my data?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Cryten:
With N-Cry version 3.4.2 you can flash with S.R mode to JWR66Y. Your data will be lost!

No! Use OTA update!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Firschi:
I already tried to update via OTA, but it didn't work! After starting the update process Phone reboots as usual and then shows a green android with a red warning sign.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Cryten:
Save your apps with Titanium Backup(backup files to computer) and save your sd-card to your computer. Flash with N-Cry Toolkit to 4.3 JWR66Y. Copy your data from computer to sd-card and restore apps with titanium backup

done

best regards Cryten

PS: your contacts is backup to your google account!

Sup guys, I just got my nexus 4 last week (upgraded from Evo 4G). I wanted to root and do the steps to get the lte on my phone. Before I use this to root my phone, should I install LTE on my phone before or after. I'm a little confused about the LTE setup. I did some google searches and looked through the forum and saw a few different ways of getting LTE on my phone. I saw Hybrid radios, scripts, ect... Do you guys have any recommendations on how to proceed?

i have this same above problem .. doesnt seem to root when just goint to "root menu" and even "recovery menu" doesnt work it says successful and done .. but when i boot to recovery it says bad command! with the sleeping android

im not bootloader unlocked and am on JWR66Y what am i doing wrong
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Firschi:
your bootloader needs to be unlocked, otherwise rooting isn't possible. If you unlock your BL all your data will be lost.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Luis_D1:
Worked for me flawlessly but missing some notifications or warnings cause you know, sometimes people forget things like that unlocking bootloader gonna erase everything and you just end up having a bad time like me -__- or for newbies of course.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Firschi:
Actually there is such notification, at least if you're using the latest version of the toolkit :o

hi, with this toolkit is possible to flash a factory image without losing data like in mskip toolkit?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] pathtologos:
Don't see any posts since 10/3 and I'm just making sure: I'm getting my nexus 4 on Monday and I'm pretty sure it'll be running 4.3 (cuz my brother just got one and it was on 4.3). I was looking on YouTube at some tutorials for unlocking the bootloader, rooting, & installing recovery. This ncry tool seems like the easiest way to go. I'm not new to this process but I like easy so I think I'll use this method. Only thing is, the YouTube video of the ncry process doesn't show anything about installing drivers (that's why I think it looked so much easier) so I'm wondering, do I not have to install drivers to use ncry? Secondly, do you agree this is the easiest (and also safe) way to root, unlock bootloader, and install custom recovery?

Thanks.

Hi, I was selling my nexus so I factory reset, then entered TWRP recovery > wiped Data+Cache+Dalvik+System+Int.SDCard

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Joe4899:
Thank you for that awesome toolkit! But have just a small problem with TWRP - it's slipped a bit to left and on the right side is just black line where TWRP has to be :crying:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ph37rd:
Root Only

Like a few others that have this problem, I've gone from 4.2.2 to 4.3 via the OTA. So have a JWR66Y phone.

I've tried the Root only button with Custom Recovery checked. The computer and phone talk back and forth, transfer files, etc.

Get all the appropriate windows and such. Everything looks good...

Until that one step that says to go check your root status with SuperSU. Well, that comes back and tells me that I dont have the binaries for root.

Custom Recovery was done just fine, but no root binaries. I still haven't seen the answer to this from the last time it was asked about (yes, im human and make mistakes, so may have just missed it).

Try: Start the device. It will stuck at Google logo, but you can try to push a ROM file via adb, that should work there...or you boot from a USB stick, put the file to the system and flash it again...but I don't know if this works...

Yeah I've also noticed this already tried to flash the img file from official website, so that means it's not a problem of the toolkit :good:

But is there any fix for that? It looks just so ugly :( Sorry for these basic questions but I'm pretty new on Nexus :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Maxr1998:
I did it with fastboot. I unlocked bootloader before I even started it (boot to bootloader, then fastboot oem unlock ), and then I applied update with adb sideload. Then I flashed TWRP with fastboot, booted to recovery and selected "reboot system". It asked me if I want to root, and I just followed the steps...Greetings, Max

Just download the original images and execute flash-all.bat when you have Windows or flash_all.sh when you have Linux in fastboot. It will flash everything (also bootloader, radio, recovery, ...) on it's own.

Here is the download link:

What you need there is fastboot under platform-tools. If you have Linux it's a bit easier you need just to install android-tools-fastboot package (included in Ubuntu repo, don't know how it is in other Linux distros) :D

Short info update:

RootME is a root program as the name suggests with your all Nexus devices can rooting. For example: Google Nexus 4/5/7/2013 and all Galaxy Nexus devices

Why not upgrade N-Cry Toolkit?

N-Cry Toolkit's program code is too bad programming. It would simply take too much time demanding. That is why the toolkit is split into separate programs. Such as: RootME, RecoveryME ....
