I think I did it

I think i bricked my Nexus...

Bootloader was unlocked, rooted, I finally started dabbling in ROMS. I downloaded TWRP that took over my CWMR. Unfortunately, i had only saved my original backup in CWMR.

I tried downloading and installing a ROM and GAPPS within TWRP. It didn't work. Nothing is coming up and I have no idea how to get my phone back to stock or anything. I started freaking out and clearing stuff and trying to get it factory reset and have made things worse.

Basically, if I can somehow get back to ClockWord Mod I think I can get my backup. But It's going to have to be done internally in TWRP's recovery or via the computer.

Are there any options?????
 
You have 2 options to get your device operational. Use the fastboot command to flash cwm back onto the device, or download the room and gapps on a computer and use adb to push them directly to the phone for flashing.
 
I'm pretty new to the Nexus and rooting in general, hence the situation I'm in now. So I appreciate the advice, I've been trying to google what I can do, looking for links, downloads, etc...

Do you have any further information (link) that might walk me through step-by-step in the simplest manner possible?

Also, I do have the One-click tool program downloaded on my computer, how do I get the phone into a mode that will accept whatever it is that's coming over from my computeR?
 
No problem, my question is which do you prefer, restoring the backup or flashing a new rom?


I really want Clockwork Mod back... Although, because I started clearing everything out and trying to reset back to factory via TWRP recover mode I'm a little nervous that my backup is no longer in ClockworkMod. So flashing a new ROM, if it's possible within TWRP, might be my only option...

I shouldn't have messed around with GOO/TWRP until I was more comfortable with it. All I kept reading was how it was noob proof and everything so I figured I'd give it a shot.
