    Help Nexus 4 in half hard brick?

    First, some background on me bricking it. It's not my fault, as LuneOS caused it (I think). I took two non-working Nexus 4s and swapped components until one worked. It worked fine on Android, everything working (no lag, memory&storage issues, working mics, etc). Then, I installed LuneOS...
