Hello good folks, I'm wondering if I could please get some help.  I have a Nexus 4 that I tried to load up with Touch, I had some problems using phablet-flash with cdimage-touch and ubuntu-system so I ended up following the manual install process on the wiki, and that loaded it up ok.  However I was having problems running the update from the software menu (a 308Mb download) so I thought I might be able to use apt-get update && apt-get upgrade to do the same thing, but that only downloaded a small set of updates.  Hence I returned to try that update from the settings, but it didn't seem to get anywhere (not to the install update and restart option that I'd seen before) so I restarted the phone. to try again.  Unfortunately the phone will no longer boot - it jsut sits on the "Google" screen, so either I shouldn't have done the apt-get or the settings update _was_ actually doing something and was part the way through.  Either way, my phone needs a reload. 
 I can get to the Ubuntu recovery console and have tried clearing the cache and performing a factory reset, so though neither of those help, at least I should be able to recover things.  My question is: what's the best way to reload Touch on there, in this situation?  Should I try the phablet-flash ubuntu-system or should I manually push the image file back over?  If the latter, do I need to do both the saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+mako.zip  and saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip or just one (I would guess the second) of them?  I thought I should check which is the best way, so I don't make things worse.

Also, regarding the OTA update, are there issues with running that (I know there isn't a progress bar) or do I just need to make sure I keep my phone active while it downloads, so the wireless doesn't drop?

Thanks
Phil
