Just in case anyone needs it - here's a flashable zip with stock Nexus 4 KitKat recovery, straight from the factory image.
Instructions: just install the zip using your custom recovery.
You do this on your own responsibility, I am in no way responsible for anything that happens to your device.
Where's the link.???

Just gives me a laying down android with red exclamation. No recovery installed at all.

Will this recovery work if you're running stock 4.2.2 JDQ39? I've googled & searched for a stock 4.2.2 recovery and came up empty :crying:

I'd think some details of your set up would come in handy for diagnostic reasoning.
Unless you are just saying/etc??

What details would you possibly need when I say flashing this via custom recovery just gives me a laying down android with red exclamation and erases the custom recovery. Tell me. What else should I include? Has it worked for anyone else? 3 downloads and 4 attempts now show unsuccessful.

That should be the stock recovery! Have you tried, while you see the Android with the red exclamation mark, pressing power and volume up buttons? This should bring you to the actual recovery menu (from where you can do factory reset, flash zip etc..).
Yes. I've done this numerous Times and just tried again.

No, not only Volume Up! Press the Volume Up + Power button for 3 seconds
Alternatively, you can try to download the KRT16O stock image here https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/occam-krt16o-factory-75ccae7a.tgz then extract the archive and finally flash the contained recovery via fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Edit: Nope, bootloader can be unlocked.
Yep. Already tried it as you listed. Still won't work. Volume up + power just reboots.

Well, I'd try to get the correct stock recovery for your current build from the factory image (if that is KRT16O, see link above) flash it via fastboot and try again (also try to press the Vol Up button a bit before you start pressing the power button to make sure it doesn't take the power button press only). But don't know how to help any further.
Can anyone provide me a KTU84P recovery.img?

So I been trying to root my phone for about an hour now. I rooted, un-rooted then rooted again, and it seems to have work (obviously you can't tell when your phone is rooted, but oh well). I'm kind of a noob in the Droid 3 section, but then I went to the Market place and downloaded the "ROM Manager", downloaded the CM9 recovery, and had the app boot into recovery but to my surprise, it doesn't work for some reason. I don't under what else I can do, am I rooted? Do I need to manually install CM9 recovery? I just want ICS on my phone, and this is driving me crazy.

Do you have Super User app on your phone ?
Yup. I do, I have no idea where it came from though.
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
Does it open? Look up the thread for boot two roms at once in the genreal section. Follow that and you will have ICS. You should wait tho, as a new build will be up tonight for ics.
Sent from my XT862 using Tapatalk
Yup, it opens and shows the applications that I allow, does this mean that I'm rooted for sure? I'll definitely wait for the new ICS rom tonight, just want to make sure if I can boot into recovery. I tried using the "X" and power button but it just gives me the triangle with the "!" logo inside.
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
I believe in the droid 3...you hold the Power + M for recovery. Not the X.
Root checker is an app that will tell you if you are rooted. You need to either install the droid 3 bootstrap or safestrap to get cwm recovery.

Its kind of either or.
You can hold Power + M, and use the volume keys to select recovery, or you can hold Power + X and it will go to recovery as well.

It gave ya the right screen. But that takes you to the stock recovery. To install roms you will need Clockworkmod Recovery or Safestrap Recovery.

Well for me from manager doesn't work.. the recovery it installs does not start from app... never tried other way . Uninstaled RM and installed only hashcode's safestrap so you don't need to start in recovery.: it will give you the option to open the cwm menu from boot by pressing menu button when prompted and if nothing done then start normally..

Here's what happened first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158781
And now it won't turn on. If I plug it on a wall, it turns on and shows that blue service screen I mentioned at the post above. But when I disconnect it, the screen turns off and I can do nothing to turn it back on (tried holding power button 30 seconds, tapping it, holding the down/up vol while hold the power button, etc).

Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so do you have a nandroid of a working rom you can install while still on the charger? Try that but it sounds like you might have a hardware issue. Are you still under warranty
Edit it won't charge when plugged into your computer?

Sorry, no CRMod installed (stupid me). This is a famous case for failed Gtab flashing. The battery drains faster than when charged. And yeah, it doesn't charge when plugged on the PC.
I might go to a repair guy (no warranty). If theres another way, I'd like to hear it.
I got same problem after flash aokp ics shw m180s, do u find any solution?
This is just a flashable stock unrooted ROM for anyone wanting a copy to flash via CWM as opposed to fastboot. It was literally the JDQ39 system image dumped into the dsixda kitchen and thrown straight back out with NO changes whatsoever - it's not even deodexed! Useful if you need to use an app which can still detect root even after using a root-hider app (e.g. to watch Sky Go in the UK)
It is the 100% untouched, unmolested system image
Enjoy...

Far as I know, OTA is dependent on the recovery. So you would still need stock recovery to pull the OTA.
Someone feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken. I came from an HTC monstrosity, and we all know how easy those are to modify.

Hmm. Though we would get "Failed" upon an ota via s3 I remember regardless of recovery it would indeed update as well as patch recovery. But I'm not saying this is the case on nexus devices as this indeed is my first.

Hey swirly ..as you approach a possible flash coming from this flash able stock zip would you mind posting any positive results if any with your performance and battery? I have heard and at times on other devices found at times this does improve somewhat by the partitions being reset or to those lines etc. Thank you.

You didn't keep a stock from first flash?. I always do. Good ole flashback unroot then delete twrp (depending if really needed as s3 wasn't) then protect root with root keeper then unroot take ota then load saved root. If this doesn't work on nexus 4 I'd love to know but worked on RAZR rezound and s3..if not I'll report in a created thread via next update. My reason is I like having that true first stock backup. Good for fresh installs of custom when reverting first. IMO lol

Just a quick question. If you flash this and then flash stock recovery, can you basically unroot by doing that? It'll be much easier (at least in my opinion) of you could just flash the rom to unroot and go back to pure stock
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Well the truth is that if you have cwm 6+ the OTA installs with no problem and if you are root, it keeps it too! Just for your information the OTA needs system ,bootloader, radio, boot.img unmodified.
TBH I made this to help people too lazy to flash the stock factory image from Google. I'd always recommend the factory image personally
Gapps requirement
Is gapps required after flashing the ROM?

This is the link for people who are stock and unlocking their phone. If you're using the toolkit put it in the data folder and rename to twrp. Be careful though the other files are the same name but in capital letters! Flash it and u will have responsive twrp and rooted 4.3 ota

Yea I do not know how to get into recovery. I locked my bootloader while rooted with s-off then did the ruu to 1.29 stock, did the update, up til 4.3 and everything went fine. I Unlocked bootloader again with the unlock code from HTC and my phone shows unlocked. However I cannot get recovery to work, I fastboot flashed the newest version of twrp several times and it would say successful. When in bootloader I click on recovery it brings me to the htc screen with opening recovery on top, and the bottom saying that this is for experimental purposes. The screen hangs there for about a minute then it goes to black and the phone resets itself. If someone else had this happened to them and got it working respond, it is annoying that I am unlocked with s-off but I cant flash a custom recovery.
Phone is not booting up, screen is blinking on\off on Samsung.com initial logo
Can enter in download mode, so tried flashing stock rom via odin(it flashed successfully) , but no sucess in screen problem.
