Root Bootloop - Need some hand-holding, usb debugging not enabled

[Earzzz]

Hi guys! I'm pretty much in the same boat as the OP in this thread: http://androidforums.com/nexus-4-all-things-root/790315-bootloop-no-recovery-no-usb-debugging.html

"Since I have no recovery, I cannot restore a backup
Since I can't restore, I need to flash stock and unroot
To do that my computer needs to find my phone as a fast boot device, but it can't.
To make it see my phone, I need to install the right drivers
To install the drivers I need USB debugging enabled
To turn on USB Debugging I need to not be in a bootloop"

I've downloaded the sdk-tools and a few factory images from Google, but after running the command "Fastboot devices", all I get is a blank return, and I have no idea of how to proceed from here.

Would someone be able to help me? I'm seriously considering getting a custom OS because ever since 4.3 this thing has been giving me all kinds of weird crap.

The battery died. Maybe that'll help.

Hello, Earzzz, welcome to Android Forums!

Sorry to hear that you're having issues with your phone - we should be able to get you up and running again!!!

You could try downloading Wug's toolkit - it has a handy feature that should be able to get you out of a bootloop situation - you could then use it to flash stock
