How to Root Nexus 4 on Linux/Ubuntu!

Here's a step-by-step tutorial on how to root your Nexus 4 on Android 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.4.2, or 4.4.3 with Linux/Ubuntu, includes backing up/restoring your settings/apps using ADB backup so you don't lose everything when unlocking your bootloader. *IMPORTANT NOTE - For rooting Android 4.3, 4.4, 4.4.2, 4.4.3, the steps are exactly same but use an updated version of SuperSU, link updated on my site, see Step 15.
