[Q] Cannot update past 4.2.2 on my Nexus 4 - General Questions and Answers

So here's the story. I installed a new screen on my Nexus. After putting the phone back together, it got stuck on the boot logo.
Tried restoring a backup and flashing a different rom, but both things gave me a /data error in recovery. I used adb to flash a 4.4.2 factory image but that was stuck on bootscreen too.
I flashed a 4.2.2 factory image and that works absolutely fine. But when I try to update it to 4.3, or flash a custom 4.4.2 rom, it gets stuck on the boot logo.
Everytime I flash I am fully wiping my phone.
How can I fix this and update my phone?
Before all of this happened I was running a cyanogenmod build absolutely fine without any problems.
Thanks!

You will need to flash a full firmware. Files and instructions are found here --> LINK

Hi there.
I have already tried this. I tried to flash the 4.4.2 factory image, but the phone is still stuck on the boot logo.

Is your bootloader unlocked?

Yes, bootloader is unlocked. I have tried locking and unlocking it but this doesn't work.

You performed as followed? :
"You need to uncompress each download before use, which creates a new directory for that exact download. That directory contains a ./flash-all.sh script, which handles the various operations, installs the necessary bootloader, baseband firmware(s), and operating system"

Yes, I did exactly the same for the 4.4.2 image that I did for 4.2.2.
For some reason the 4.2.2 works fine but the 4.4.2 doesn't.

Then I must be sorry for having really no clue how to solve your issue

Manual boot only after clockwork flash fail

Alright, so here's the issue. I tried to flash a version of CW onto my HDMaxx (XT926) and it failed, saying the file size was incorrect. Now, whenever I boot, it goes to the same recovery screen and says that the flash failed, even when I don't boot into recovery. After many failed attempts, I still cannot reflash the recovery. It still boots if I manually go into the bootloader and just select normal bootup, but as you can imagine, it gets pretty old having to do that. I just installed OTA JB yesterday, and it worked fine (after manually installing the zip myself) but the same problem still occurs on boot. Any help? Thanks in advance.

Reflash stock firmware. Check the stock firmware thread for your device in development subforum.
Its usually a good idea to flash to stock before upgrading os anyway.

you said HDMaxx? do you have a retail verizon razr hd? because clockwork is only for developer devices unlocked. and im pretty sure they dont have a developer Maxx HD
You need to successfully flash any of your partitions with a signed image in fast boot. Pick a small and relatively minor one like device tree.
The bootup error you are seeing means that an unsigned image was attempted to be flashed on a locked boot loader device and should go away once any properly signed image is flashed again afterwards. You could just flash the stock recovery image from the full XML fast boot file too.
The device should boot normally again thereafter.

No, It is an HDMaxx. It has the version XT926, but it is stock Verizon. Does anyone have any knowledge of a thread with an instructional for unlocking my bootloader and a clockwork/Amon Ra/etc. flash? I'm just struggling to find anything. Almost seems like very few people are working with my device as of this moment.

Verizon branded XT926 are bootloader locked, period. Verizon insisted it be that way. Since the HD Maxx doesn't have a developer's edition (which you can unlock the bootloader on), you are limited to hacks/workarounds that use a signed kernel to load a custom one. Check the Developers forum for hack posts.

Google safe strap for this device. We don't have clockwork on the consumer version but we do have safestrap which uses TWRP recovery. I use that to flash stuff. It's actually better because you leave your stock rom on the safe side and flash on the other partition and don't have to worry about bricking anything.

I did read up on TWRP a while ago. It kinda looked like a pain to me. I don't know, but I just want to be able to boot straight into my ROM of choice immediately without having to go through a bootloader (for someone other than myself, not in the knowing of what they're doing ICE). I used to have an N1 running CM7 and it was just what I wanted. Are there any downfalls of using this method that you have seen?

[Q] Help: stucked TAMPERED LOCKED S-ON

Hi guys, a few day ago my One SV had some problems, rebooting itself and runs very slowly; so i tryed to do something like root it, but not knowing what i'm doing 'cause i don't have much time.
Probably installing a wrong rom, now I'm stuck in the bootloader with S-ON Tampered, Locked, and Security Warning flags.
The phone stuck with htc logo, i only manage to go into bootloader, pdanet gives me sync error, twrp recovery doesn't work anymore.
Is there something I can do now?

As long as your device is Locked, you can't flash a custom recovery.
So unlock your device at htcdev.com, flash Twrp recovery and flash back a working rom.
Use a Android 4.1.2 rom, otherwise you will have problems with noisy sound.

How do you mount the sd?
At least pull it out of your device and put it into your PC and copy needed files in this way.
One thing i could not solve earlier (because of bad internet connection): did you already install the Android 4.2.2 update or what was your software running on your device before? Thats important to give you the right rom for your firmware!
I'll give you the links anyway:
4.1.2 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254384
4.2.2 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512742
Rumrunner & moonshine are confirmed working for your hboot, but which you should use at least also depends on your previous software.

I installed the 4.2.2 versions, seems completed but phone remains with black screen showing only the top bar with the clock, then reboot itself; sometimes after reboot it shows the bottom clock and lock, you can also unlock it, but then it reboots;
One time it shows me the backgroud.
Maybe it's a motherboard problem, what do you think?
Thanks

anyway after installing the rom, from twrp internal storage is 0 MB

As the roms worked for other people, i also start thinking thats something bugged with your device.
You checked md5sum of the roms? Using latest TWRP recovery?

I don't know the name of the tool (i'm at work), but you will find it with google search, i think.
In recovery this is not a problem, its only to check on your pc, if the downloaded file is the same as the upload.

Hi, i managed to change the motherboard, so trying to put a mod, the phone now stuck on the htc logo...
I unlocked it with htcdev, then installed the recovery but this one doesn't work, it says starting recovery but doesn't start..(trying to install a different recovery, it seems unable to rewrite it)
trying to do something i flashed with fastboot the stock boot.img and now the phone doesn't start anymore..
what can i do now? :crying:

Really really need help.

So I bought a HTC One Mini recently (maybe a month back or so). I loved it, and I decided to root it, (I'm S-ON btw) but I didn't know what custom ROMs were. So I decided to try getting one,(the onedroid one) and failed many times because it said failed. I had TWRP, so when I tried to flash the zip, and when it failed, it said clear cache/davlik or whatever, and I clicked it. Ever since, I've been stuck in a boot loop, and whenever I tried to press recovery, or factory reset, it would say Entering Recovery... at the top, and then the teamwin logo part would flash for a split second and keep flashing for like 3 seconds, and the bootloop would start all over again.
I tried to fastboot erase cache, I even fastboot oem lock 'd, but now it's relocked and whenever I try to enter recovery or factory reset, it just puts me back into the bootloop/bootloader. I really need help on this please.
I've also flashed a new recovery when my bootloader was unlocked, and that didn't work either. Please help, thanks!
alright so update: I fixed that problem, my internal s torage was 0 MB so I formatted my data, and I have storage now as well. I don't know what to do from this point on, I tried factory resetting but theres no OS on the SDCard or anywhere, so... yeah. I'm downloading a stock android 4.2.2/sense 5 (which was what was on my HTC one before **** went down) to see if I can flash it on there and just install it on. Will give feedback when I'm done.
Okay, so now I am completely stuck. I can get into recovery, but I don't know what to do at all now. Help me please.

1st. Rule of hacking up your device.
- Never flash any Rom that's not found in its own device forum. So since your in the mini forum flash only the roms that are available or you'll have a paper weight ( brick ) ... So that's your whole issue with device bootlooping ...

Again only flash HTC One Mini roms. Not HTC One roms. Your going to nuke your device by not knowing the basics of flashing. So grab a HTC One Mini rom. And if all is still boot looping unlock your bootloader and obtain a stock recovery for this device and flash it then factory reset from bootloader, it will fix corrupt partitions.. Then flash philz latest recovery from our One Mini forums..
Also need to know your hboot version. Is it 2.21 or 2.22??

[Q] Stuck at boot screen

Flashed the latest RUU from HERE, and it boots into the OS perfectly.
Then, flashed Stock GPE from HERE and also tried LolliGPE from HERE. Both will not get past the boot screen, after waiting over 30min's.
In attempts to fix, the latest full firmware, TWRP, full wipe/dirty wipe, and DH's 5.1 firmware have been flashed, then the custom ROM's flashed again followed. Same issue is persists. Each time, trying to flash the RUU back, boots without issue.
Prior to flashing the latest RUU (hboot method, 0P6BIMG.zip), I have ran all the ROM's mentioned and others without issue.
I'm at a loss of what to try next, or why it's hanging. Right now, i'm leaving it for hours at the boot screen, but I doubt this is going to cure anything and only provide a hot phone during the whole time.
The phone is unlocked, S-OFF, and SuperCID.
Any suggestions i'm willing to try.
Update:
Woke up 6+ hours later, and it was still stuck on the boot screen.
Flashed the latest Fluent ROM found HERE, and it boots fine. Then did a full wipe (Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data, System), then the standalone data wipe, and factory reset. Installed GPE from HERE, and it stuck on the boot screen again after waiting 20min's...
Next step i'm going to try is 4.4.4 RUU, then full latest OEM firmware. If GPE doesn't boot still, i'll try DH's 5.1 firmware.
Still has the same problem.
I have no idea what else to try. Wish I never flashed that damn RUU file!

The stock secure boot.img is probably what's causing you issues.
Choose a Rom, take it's boot.img and fastboot flash it.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then flash the Rom.
Profit...!?

That's what I said in the first post/sentence. The boot.img in the RUU was the root cause for other ROM's not booting. This was verified 3x with identical results.

I don't think you follow me.
The ruu is the same as stock.
Do you recall having to manually flash an insecure boot img before you flashed your first custom rom?
It's no different.

I want to flash DH5.1. Are these correct steps I should following:
1) open DH5.1 zip file, find the boot.img (I found there're two boot.img, stock/boot.img and elite/boot.img, I guess I should use later one)
2) fastboot flash the boot.img
3) boot into recovery to flash DH5.1
4) reboot
Thanks for help!

YOG4PAS2QL bricks my OPO

Hi
Since updating my OPO to YOG4PAS1N0 I couldn't reboot my OPO. Since the last update it won't even boot any more. I've reflashed to stock 4.4.4, installed every update and had the same issue. I even tried to flash the zip true recovery, but i got an error while doing it. So, after three times of updating, I'm back to square one.
After going back to stock I have to factory reset in recovery, otherwise the OPO won't boot.
But of course I'd like to install Lollipop (and later Marshmallow). What can I do? I have a Mac with OSX 10.11 and a laptop with Windows 7, so I'm able to use both.
I did the flashing on my Macbook with the Toolkit found here. But I don't think there's an issue with this, as it uses the terminal. It's just easier then to type it all myself
Thanks in advance.

It'd help if you actually posted what errors you're getting, without information like that it's virtually impossible to troubleshoot. Anyway, your best bet is probably just to flash the stock images with fastboot. Back up anything important first as this will wipe your device. See section 8 of my guide:

The only error I got, was that it's impossible to boot. I'll try your guide asap

I unlocked the bootloader.
I installed the latest fastboot image.
Now my OPO is stuck again at the 1+ / Powered by Android-screen. I can't boot into recovery, but fastboot mode is still possible.
Everything up to cm-12.0-YNG1TAS2XK-bacon-signed-fastboot seems to work fine.

Is there a reason you're using that particular build instead of the latest? How are you installing it?

I'm sorry, I thought my message was clear. The latest build gives the same problem. With this build, I'm able to boot. I installed this in terminal as a fastboot-images.
This guy has the exact same problem.

Assuming that you want to upgrade your OPO to latest available version of Cyanogen
- Flash latest *fastboot* image from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/official-cm11s-roms-ota-updates-t2906746
- If you have already tried above step, flash cm-12.0-YNG1TAS2I3-bacon-signed-fastboot.zip and then upgrade via OTA incremental update zip

I've tried the first, didn't work. I've tried flashing 11S and started upgrading. I didn't have issues until 12.0. When I got to 12.1 I couldn't reboot (but I could shut down and boot). With the latest update I couldn't even boot normally.
Anyone has some idea?

Not sure if its a language barrier but first of you are going to have to supply more information than that. Secondly what have you tried to fix it and especially since there are tutorial out the waaaaahzooo in here on how to repair your "bricked" phone.
Please research make some attempts and if any issue please document in full what your issue is. I guarantee you though whatever it is someone here has gone through it already so search thorough

What I have tried is on page 1 of this thread.
I tried to install 4.4.4 with a flashable zip and then installed all updates. I installed the 5.1.1 zip. I installed the fastboot 5.1.1 and 4.4.4 and installed all updates.
Now I'm on 5.0.
On the last update I couldn't update reboot or boot anymore. The update before that I couldn't reboot, bu I could boot.
