Flash the original Rom via cwm or use odin... Then relock the bootloader. Just type OEM lock..

No offense, but if you don't know what those things are, how in the world did you root and install MIUI, etc?
Are we being trolled?

To add....he installed various ROM SEVERAL times

Although I agree with you all: he's certainly a troll, this being his first 2 posts doesn't tell us anything; if he was active on the forums he wouldn't ask these questions.
Now get out of here, troll...

Because I use Touch recovery..it will not work on the other recoveries...
flash the recovery via Odin and Flash the ROM..
then you can flash back the other recovery on the top of it to have your backups..
[Edit] try it on your current recovery once..I think it will work as it uses Edify scripts..do let me know so that I can edit the OP

Why dont you try flashing a stock firmware via Odin first without bootloader checked and second time with bootloader option checked..then flash any other ROM..it is know to cure Wifi problems when moving with leaked JB ROMS..

WiFi is working just fine here

[Q] Recovery Preference

This may be premature, but now that we are unlocked and liberated from stock recovery what is the best replacement out there? I have used both clockwork mod and TWRP with other devices but does one have an advantage over the other with the M? Voice your opinion to the community!!!

I prefer TWRP, and it seems to be the best option for this phone. Use version 2.3, as 2.4 is still in beta and a lot of people have had issues with if. CWM doesn't have as many options as TWRP.

What he said. And the cwm is pain in the ass to navigate with the volume buttons.
Hate the new backup system in cwm also.

I use both, one of my Ms has twrp and one has cwm. I prefer cwm because backups are faster IMO, but either works

I have yet to root the M yet. With my Inc2 I used twrp from day one that it was released. GNex I used 4ext which is also excellent.

There is a link in this thread:

The TWRP that's included in the Unlock/Recovery thread in this forum has a link to 2.4, which is pretty buggy.

I haven't used it, but other people report that's it unable to restore a backup and freezes at "Creating MD5" when creating a backup. I think there were some other ones mentioned, but I couldn't find them.

my nexus 4 is bricked :(

Hey guys,
I've recently updated to android 4.3
I've installed franco kernel on top of the os and it seems to screw up my phone
the phone restarted and its stuck on the google logo
I've tried to use nexus root toolkit of WUG to install stock + unroot in the soft brick mode
and its still stucked on the google logo
tried factory reset from bootloader and now it tells me I dont have OS hehe
mmm dont know really what to do from here and not sure
I did the above mentioned steps as I should.
I dont have problem to delete everything and to do a factory reset if possible
Also I'd like to have 4.2.2 .. loved it more as I could work with franco kernel
would much appriciate any guidence on to follow up from here
as I am preety lost.
thanks alot mates!

That is soft bricked and there is like a million ways to fix it.
If you want you can sideload a custom rom of your choice or you can just use the Nexus Stock Images which allows you to install 4.2.2 or 4.3.

Since it is just Soft bricked then yes, just boot to recovery with volume up and power, scroll to recovery, select and restore your backup.

Choose your android version here, choose the Mako/Occam type.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occamjwr66v
From the looks of it there is no Fastboot binary in it so you need to copy them over to that folder making sure your in the bootloader and you have drivers.

Make sure you are downloading the correct version of franco if you still want his kernel.
