Lol. For all the praise we give Google, they can't seem to do an update properly. Still waiting for both my N4 and 2012 N7 for the 4.4 update.

And yes I know that the images are available so you can sideload, but I personally don't know enough about all of that part of things where I'd feel confident doing it.

So stuck waiting for OTA updates that are taking forever to arrive....

They roll it out gradually on purpose, can't really see a problem with that, even if it is a bit frustrating for the impatient among us.
 
Updated 4.4, phone restarted to a no command bootloop. I can get into the bootloader but recovery falls back to the no command bootloop.

Such a pain. Anyone had the same?

It does reboot a couple of time during the install, I though mine had gone in to boot loop but I just left it made a cup of tea and it was ok by the time I came back to it.

Hello buddy, I just fixed mine by doing the following from peste386 over on androidcentral.

Modified the steps to fix the no command bootloop on the Nexus 4 whilst trying to update to 4.4 kitkat.

1. Get the android SDK if you don't already have it https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

2. Get the image for your device from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

I downloaded Factory Images "occam" for Nexus 4 Android 4.3 (JWR66Y)

3. Extract image-occam-jwr66y.rar and copy the following files to platform-tools
  • boot.img
  • recovery.img
  • system.img
4. Boot into your bootloader (volume down+power) and connect your cable.

5. From the command prompt, make sure you can see your device: fastboot devices

Then, run the following commands:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img

This is how I got back into 4.3 without losing any data. Hope that helps.
