Installing a debug ROM

[Alon Goldenberg]

As I wrote in my last post, my Nexus 4 is bricked (or whatever it's called. No network, storage and camera).
I've decided to install full_mako-userdebug as another user had this and it fixed his problem.
I'm using this: Dev-Host - full_mako-userdebug 4.2 LGEP19 DUMP.zip - The Ultimate Free File Hosting / File Sharing Service
The problem is I have no idea how to install this.
Does anyone know how?
Thank's

You're making this more difficult than it needs to be. You flashed something you shouldn't have and it seems you ignored rule # 1....READ and familiarize yourself with unlocking/rooting. It doesn't get any simpler than doing this on Nexi. You can follow one of the stickies to factory restore OR use this very good toolkit. Rule #2....ALWAYS have ONE good nandroid backup to restore in case you botch something up. Anyway, this kit is so simple you do not even have to read very much other than the on screen instructions. Perfect for you, man : ) Good luck. P.S. never heard of a "debug rom." You need to factory restore.

It's not a debug rom persay, thats just what the file name says when you buidl it from source.

Your best bet is to use a toolkit to do a full restore if you don't have a backup as Contejas suggested.
Or if you want to go the manual route you can restore it from one of Google's images yourself.
Bottom line is that if you are able to get it to boot it's fixable and not bricked. Bricked means it won't boot at all and a true brick isn't fixable. Its very very very hard to brick a nexus device unless it's got a fundamental hardware problem.

You're making this more difficult than it needs to be. You flashed something you shouldn't have and it seems you ignored rule # 1....READ and familiarize yourself with unlocking/rooting My Nexus was already rooted.. It doesn't get any simpler than doing this on Nexi. You can follow one of the stickies to factory restore OR use this very good toolkit I followed a tutorial and tried a factory restore, with and without a toolkit. Didn't help.. Rule #2....ALWAYS have ONE good nandroid backup to restore in case you botch something up I've never seen a thing about nandroid after messing up my phone. I used instructions and flashed the radio with fastboot, and again, it messed up my phone.. Anyway, this kit is so simple you do not even have to read very much other than the on screen instructions. Perfect for you, man If you don't know what you're talking about, don't try being sarcastic and unhelpful. You obviously didn't read my post. I wrote every step I've done. : ) Good luck. P.S. never heard of a "debug rom." You need to factory restore.
