Did you get root? If so, did everything go ok with the port forwarding in Servers Ultimate?

[Q] no rom on phone

hi all,
so after a series of stupid decisions, i have no rom on my nexus 4
i can boot into bootloader and recovery (twrp) but for some reason cannot mount it to my computer so i cannot transfer a new rom
i tried using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 to flash a stock rom, but the n4 would get stuck at the boot animation, so i tried to wipe cache in the recovery. this only made it get stuck at the google logo
does anyone know of a method to somehow transfer a new rom to my phone?
any help would be greatly appreciated
You can use a toolkit found in the development area of the forums. They should be able to flash stock rom on bootloader via fast boot.

thank you, it worked
If you had never used a toolkit in the first place there would have been no need to create this thread. You would have known how to fix it. Fastboot is your friend.

Questions shd not be here this method is a hassle as you will need a PC.
Google it there is an update.zip you can flash using stock recovery to get root..no PC is required

[Q] Nexus 4 CRASHED?

Hi,
I was trying to update my nexus 4 android version 4.3 to KitKat 4.4 and when i install the custom rom that i had downloaded the device show me a "Warning:No files contexts" and now the device get stuck on google screen :S i can enter into bootloader and recovery mode but i havent roms into my device and dont know how i can get an original version and install into my nexus4... anyone can help me please!!? i am desesperate
Thanks!
That should help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2527142
Or any other thread that has a "how-to" flash ROMs as I think the only option for you is to reflash stock firmware either KitKat or any other that you like. Its pretty simple but if you can't follow the guides you can go the way that is not advisable if you want to learn - find some toolkits to reflash firmware. Good luck

No, it doesn't talk about a vbmeta, so you don't need one.
