Hi
I just rooted my nexus 4 using the superboot. And made backup using titanium. But the problem is i tried using
androidrootz.com/2012/11/how-to-root-nexus-4-on-mac.html
earlier to try to root the phone and after unlocking the bootloader and wiping the device i couldnt get into the recovery mode. Now it comes up with android lying down with a red triangle over this. The phone switches on fine.
I am rooted though. Just need to get into recovery mode. Any help, please?
I had this happen to me. I imagine you used CWM to flash Superuser right? When you rebooted through CWM it said something about do you want to disable recovery from being reinstalled to stock, something to that extend.
Basically I think what you have to do is reflash your recovery. Either stock or a custom recovery (cwm etc).
In fastboot you would do fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (recovery.img being CWM)
Hey thanks for the quick reply.
Well I am fairly new to android. This being my first Android handset. Can you please tell where to start with. Though i remember this fastboot command i entered earlier. Did i mention I have SU on my handset now.
And is there any other way to get custom roms other than CWM? If i got for stock recovery do i still retain root access? and how can i can flash stock recovery if possible.
Really appreciate this.

No problem at all. I suggest reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
But I will highlight what you need to do:
C. Download the required files to your computer and extract them
1) All of the files that are required, need to be in one (i.e., the same) directory. It does not matter what it is called, but all the files need to be in there, with NO subfolders. EVERYTHING needs to be extracted into this one directory;
2) Download the attachment from the end of this post and extract the contents to the directory created in step 1. Note: if all you want to do is unlock your bootloader, skip to step 7 in this section (C).
3) Download the version of Android you want from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occamjop40d. Make sure you are using an occam image which is for the Nexus 4. Most old versions are not usually available on that site; however, there is a mirror on this site: Random Phantasmagoria.
4) Download the appropriate version (for your computer) of 7-zip from here and install it.
5) Extract the files from within the .tgz file which you downloaded in step 3 using 7-zip, not WinZip or WinRAR or whatever.
6) Make sure you have extracted ALL the files (including extracting any files in any archives inside the .tgz file). You should have six (6) files ending with .img in the directory you created in step 1. The other files you extracted from the .tgz are not necessary;
7) Reboot your device into bootloader mode (by turning it off, hold volume down, and press and hold power) and plug it into your computer;
8) Open a command prompt in the same directory (i.e., make sure you are in the same directory as your files are located). You can hold the shift key when you are in the folder in Windows explorer and right-click in a blank spot and it will open a command prompt.
then: 12) Optional (NOT optional for n00bs) -- Flash the recovery partition: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (this should be inside the occam-jop40d-factory-ca7602f0.tgz )
Now hope this all works for you, I am at work and have never actually done any of this on my own (other then flash a custom recovery).
But that guide is awesome, read through it sure it will help you out.
I have this issue with a huge difference I haven't rooted or unlock the boot loader on my device, but when I try to get in to recovery I get the red triangle and the no command. Is anybody having this issue? How can I fix it?

Yes is supposed to get there the problem is, I get to the first menu, press volume down to select recovery mode, get in to recovery mode, it gets in and shows a laid down android with the red triangle on top an the no command message below, I press volume up or volume down and it does nothing just keeps showing no command, the only way to get out is by holding power button for several seconds.
this never happened to me on mi Galaxy and I don,t know whats going on, as I said on this particular device I haven't rooted or unlock the boot loader, it is completely stock.
Thanks in advance for your help.
To get to the menu on the triangle thing, you need to press power then while holding it tap the volume up. After that the menu will be shown. Pressing only the volume buttons won't do it

As i said before, I press volume down + power and get to the main menu, then i select recovery mode by pressing the power button and enter recovery mode (all this works perfect), after I enter recovery mode, there is just the android with the red triangle on top and the no command on the bottom, and I press the volume up and down buttons and nothing happens.
As I said this is a new device never rotted locked boot loader, I really don't know whats wrong here.
You're not reading it correctly. When you are in the android with triangle, press POWER then VOLUME UP to access the menu. That's what I've been saying two posts up. Pressing just the volume buttons in that screen won't get you anywhere

happened to me, too. easy solution, get goomanager from play, tap settings, tap install open recovery. that will install TWRP right away. btw, TWRP is everything that CWM is not, use it, its so much better.

Man, Thanks, now i got it, it worked perfectly. you guys are the reason I am on android and not in another OS. Thanks again
So, I followed this guide: http://www.androidrootz.com/2012/11/how-to-root-nexus-4-on-mac.html
Booted in CWM followed all the steps, and the last step to reboot the device, it rebooted but never went back to CWM.
Now I am constantly getting the Android with Triangle and "no command" so I guess it keeps me in stock recovery.
My bootloader shows unlocked.
Please help, what should I do? I can't seem to get the phone to do a hard reset by holding power+volume down then tapping back and home?
When you get to the android with "!", it should be power then volume up not volume down

Both are relatively similar. I would have to take the side of TWRP at least on the N7. Last time i tried to flash something with CWM it didnt wipe correctly or flashed incorrectly and ended up with a courrpt ROM. Had to redownload and reflash with TWRP and it was fine. Dont know what it is with CWM on this device but on my Gnex it was just fine. As of right now i would stick to TWRP. It also doesnt do the whole blob deal for nandroids which IMO isnt quite ready and causes issues. At least in my experience.

Yep!
I just did it as I had a problem with CWM, in goomanager you just go settings and choose "install open recovery" when it has downloaded you then select "reboot recovery" and that's it.
I think I like it better than CWM already, I like being able to name my backups as I do them, very handy.

Flash a superuser package or flash a custom ROM.

I have always used CWM on my phone for no reason other than that was what came w/ the kernal or rom pick of the day. Using the Nexus 7 Toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1809195 I installed CWM, or tried to, ended up going to the play store for touch.
I have tried holding the power key, powerkey + vol, power++ or - vol and can not get into CWM to no avail. Yes it was connected to USB. I have to use Rom Manager to get to it. Just thinking if something/everything locks up there should another way to get to recovery.
Can I have both Twerp and CWM at the same time?
No. One recovery at a time.
But if you have root access all you need to do is get the terminal emulator from the market type :
Su(enter, grant root)
Reboot recovery
Or if you have adb on your computer (which you really should of you're going to be flashing anything) Just make sure you have. Usb debugging on and type: adb reboot recovery.
Btw the button combo is all three buttons(both volumes and the power button to boot into the bootloader the use the volume keys to toggle the option to recovery mode and hit the power button to confirm.

+1 for Quick Boot
With the N7 running, I have found that if I hold the power button down with or without combos for 15-20 sec. it'll reboot, not just shut down. And yes, when starting with the power & -vol it starts in fastboot. I guess I assumed that it would behave just like my sg4g....live and learn .
I'm using ROM Manager to get to TWRP. Haven't decided which I like best twrp or cwm.
My thanks for putting up w/my noobie questions!

Firstly, love your username.
And You're right about the button combo.. I thought I was in the section for my phone lol.
Apps such as that are useful enough I spose.
Power tool is what I used back when my phone first came out and there was no rom with an extended power menu.

I can press the power button and both volumes and it gets me to download mode... from there, every option i try just gets me back to recovery. when i press start, it sends me to recovery. when i press shut down and then turn it on - recovery. when i press restart bootloader, it still takes me to recovery afterwards. wtf happened here man? never seen this before.

If you can at least get to download/fastboot mode, either get the stock recovery.img file or extract the recovery.img file from a custom_recover.zip, such as CMW or TWRP and place it in the directory where you have the fastboot util on your Windows PC, plug in the device into your Windows PC. Then type the folowing in a Windows Command prompt(without the quotes): "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Once that finishes then try rebooting back to recovery.
If you that doesn't work you may have a damaged bootloader, you can try extracting the bootloader(bootloader-manta-mantalj12.img) from the stock ROM and flashing it with the following command: "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantalj12.img" then you can type: "fastboot reboot-bootloader" to reboot directly to the bootloader.

This happened to me yesterday.
Step 1 - hold down the power+volume up+volume down
Step 2 - plug up USB cable and use fastboot to flash the "touch" recovery version. Usebthe method as before, you might need to point your machine to the "naked driver" in dev section to get windows to see the fastboot device driver.
Step 3 - once you are in touch recovery you can just use the touchscreen instead of power button

You can just "adb reboot" from any computer with working adb and drivers.
This needs to not be flashed by default from Rom Manager until they get it taken care of. Twrp and cwm touch work just fine.

Seriously. Can we please sticky a thread or something that says CWM isn't stable on the nexus 10 yet. It would save a lot of people a lot of trouble.
I had the same issue get rid of crappy cwm and flash twrp, flash it by downloading the 1.3 nexus 10 rootkit selecting option 6 i believe with your n10 connected to your pc, it will fix your issue

go into the bootloader/fastboot and try booring from there. you also might need to wipe data/factory reset then reflash your rom. also, sometimes force rebooting from a bootloop will boot it(long press the power button while in the bootloop, hold the power button for 10-20 seconds).
I had this happen to me yesterday when trying to flash a custom kernel to use with CM 10.1. The way I was able to fix it, was to pull the boot.img from the ROM zip and flash it through fastboot in the bootloader. The short and simple way is this:
Open the command prompt or terminal in the folder where fastboot is on your computer, extract the boot.img from the zip file of the ROM your using and place it in the folder with fastboot, then on your Nexus 7, hold in power + volume up + volume down to turn it off. Then hold down volume down and press power to boot into the bootloader. Once there, type in the command prompt/terminal: fastboot flash boot boot.img then reboot and you should be good to go.
Can I just remove the ROM?

So if I back up the devices files with CWM and factory reseting it will remove the backup, so is there a way to send the backup onto my laptop?
Also is it possible to just remove the rom because I feel like my life would be easier if I unintalled it.
Thank You!

How do I flash 4.13 bootloader?
All you have to do is download the same ROM on your computer that you have on your phone. If its stock 4.2.1, then download the factory image of it and extract the boot image from the zip file and follow the same steps I outlined, though instead of using: fastboot flash boot boot.img, it would be fast boot flash boot <name of boot image>.img
If you still have trouble, feel free to message me here or on GTalk and I'll walk you through it.

There's an important lesson to be learned here, and you unfortunately learned it the hard way. Never, ever, blindly flash something. You need to read the OP as well as catch up on at least the last page or two of the thread. Had you done so, you would have noted that Clemsyn's Elite kernels are not compatible with 4.2.1.
I'm not saying this to be a condescending, but rather to save you the possibility of getting into situations like this again. Fortunately, Nexus devices are easily recoverable from various user errors.

- restart phone while holding power+vol down (keep vol don pressed after release sing power)
- run "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3-mako.img" on your PC

Hi,
I was trying to root my nexus 4 using this tutorial. I got to the part where I needed to get into recovery, I hold down both the volume keys and the power button. I got into fastboot mode and selected 'Recovery mode' which is supposed to launch Clockworkmod, am I right? right after I hit the power button to get into recovery a lying bot with a red triangle and an exclamation mark inside it appeared. I let the device to lay down like this for a little bit and it simply rebooted to it's normal state.
When I installed Clockwordmod it came up just fine the first time so I have no clue of what went wrong..
My boot loader is unlocked and I can see that while in fastboot mode.
Any kind of help is appreciated!

Did you flash recovery in fastboot or with a Toolkit?
In fastboot : fastboot flash recovery recovery-touch-mako.img. recovery-touch-mako is what i renamed the CWM file. Don`t add .img at the end of the name, just recovery-touch-mako or whatever you name it.
I think that you just booted CWM.
The droid with red triangle ils the default recovery. You can flash CWM by typing this : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Just rename the cwm image in recovery.img and drag it to the ADB/FASTBOOT folder.
I hope it'll help you
