You should really read up on this. USB storage is completely unrelated to USB host. The same thing every single person has replied to every single time any similar comment has been posted on here, Google Plus, Google Groups, the larget internet, etc.

You might even go so far as to consult Google WHY USB Storage doesn't work on the Galaxy Nexus. Then you would also understand that it is not something that will change.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ODD BOY:
Done successfully ... and rooted again many thanks bro =)

I can't get my computer to recognize the phone in Odin mode. I was able to get the ADB drivers installed with PDAnet and Fastboot worked just fine. However when I connect with Odin it looks for SAMSUNG USB DRIVER which Windows Update won't find. Because of this Odin doesn't see the phone. I uninstalled and reinstalled PDAnet twice, choosing to reinstall the drivers both times, but I still can't get it to work. Am I missing something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
KIES will install the right drivers... not sure if PDANet does.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yyz71:
The only problem I'm having is the email exchange crashes when I open it :( is there a fix for this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Does anyone know how to use the full original image? Odin crashes every time!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
The full original image is a series of fastboot images... the .sh file is a Linux script to flash it through fastboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Thank you ChainFire! The way the files were packaged puzzled me....Got it working!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jameslfc5:
Glad to see you on the GN scene chainfire: D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] netcow:
the same !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] letsgoflyers81:
Kies did the trick, thank you! I'm just curious, what's the advantage of using Odin rather than having a flashable ROM to install with CWM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
It's been answered. Use winrar unzip the file twice. Then you'll see the real face of the files.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Sure, it's unrelated to USB-OTG but it's also unrelated to the G+ posts you are talking about. They mention the phone itself not offering it's partitions over UMS. He is talking about getting the phone to recognize USB-drives though. It's certainly possible since PaulOBrien already got it to work in a custom kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 1.4hitachi:
You should let people know to remove their SIM before flashing, assuming this flashes the Radio as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Is that a problem? I never had any problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
Whats the advantage over a flashable ROM with CWM ?

The update.zip format is just completely not meant to do complete firmware flashes. With the right script it'll work though. Zips are for archives, not for images.

But ODIN will always work. CWM zip files only work if you have CWM, and I want to use less and less stuff that depends on CWM.

Why ?

In all my flashing history, which goes back a few years and across platform, I have never removed the SIM when flashing, and everything still works ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
The phone does recognize USB drives, it just doesn't automagically mount them for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Koyuki-kun:
Oke so everything went fine.. Updated to 4.0.2 and kept all my data. Great! Now im just having problems to reroot the device. Can anyone help me with that? Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Seconding this. I've never removed my SIM or external SD or all those things people insist I need to remove.

I've never had any issues what so ever.

Doesn't the manual procedure outlined with fastboot and adb still work?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1352004

I see no reason it should stop working, but I may be wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] letsgoflyers81:
Because with a zip you can download through ROM manager or other source and flash without needing a PC, and need specific software and drivers on the PC. I'm not saying Odin is bad or anything, but it just seems like it adds another step to the process. Granted the GN is my first Samsung device, but I've never had a problem flashing ROMs through the recovery on my other Android phones. Oh well, it's not a big deal, and thanks for your work.

How did you root in the first place? I used the process in the thread linked below. After applying the update I did step 4 again and it re-rooted with no problem.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
You are absolutely free to turn this into a CWM zip image. From the many formats available, don't expect me to release it in your preferred format, if I release it, it's in my preferred format.

Having CWM as a requirement to flash a stock image, not a custom one, is ridiculous.

That being said, Mobile ODIN is also coming to the Galaxy Nexus soon, which will support flashing these kinds of files from the phone as well :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] letsgoflyers81:
I was just asking since i hadn't seen Odin before.

One more thing. I just noticed that I no longer have Google Talk installed and I definitely did before updating. I can't see it in the Market either. Has anyone else had this probem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
I have seen it mentioned before I think, yes. Must not be inside the system image. (I didn't remove it ...)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] letsgoflyers81:
I don't suppose you know of a way to add it back? I can't find it in the Market, and I haven't seen it posted anywhere to be flashed or sideloaded.

this worked but wiped my device. :rolleyes:

I just downloaded the zip file and GSM file, followed the steps in the picture, it got all done now says 4.0.2 but my device all wiped.

In the title, it says no wipe, but still wiped device. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 1.4hitachi:
I just want to caution people because flashing the modem on the Droid Charge (another Sammy LTE) it has ruined the sim card. I'm not sure, but it would suck to have to go the a Verizon store to get another card. It only applies to the CDMA/LTE Nexus

Apologies, but this was not known before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
is this from google or modified?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trilogee:
EDIT: Ive restored my backup but would still like to use this any ideas?

Hey, I followed these instructions exactly and after 1:27 the update succeeded and i was presented with a pass message.

The phone then rebooted and is now stuck on startup animation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeoo1Nx2T-o this person hs the same issue).

The device is unlocked and rooted.

Any suggestions on how/if this can be resolved. I realize it's my responsibility but it's pretty big bummer..if you could help it would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chainfire:
Yes, if you know how to flash those partitions with fastboot, you can certainly do just that !

Both. It's Google stuff but slightly stripped. I removed some things (like overwriting recovery and data). What

is

flashed is complete unmodified Google stuff, I did not add or change anything to those parts. The first post also includes links to the full original Google images, by the way. But those are only fastboot flashable, not ODIN.

It's probably a permission conflict. There are pretty much two things you can try, both of which will wipe your data, unfortunately:

(1) Boot into recovery and wipe data

(2) Fastboot flash the entire original image from Google (see link in first post)

Either is likely to fix the situation. I would actually recommend (2). The third thing is being a complete Android guru, rebooting into recovery, and using adb to find and fix the problem. But err... usually it's a lot quicker to just flash the entire original image and lose your data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trilogee:
thanks for the reply. Everytime i try to flash the 4.0.2 image i get .sig errors followed by a waiting for device but the sig files are in the image .zip and I have the right drivers and device is recognized. Any thoughts?

I'm on Windows 8(Preview) and even with latest drivers couldn't get the job done.Showed up in device manager and windows explorer but wouldn't list device in fastboot-windows,finally oem unlocked with fastboot in android sdk. Then saw this thread , used Odin with your file and less than 30 seconds later I was rooted . Thanks again Chainfire
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
ok so the the file through orin is on the image that does not include radio and bootloader?

the problem is I noticed I get significant batter drain after loaded the gsm file from multiupload in the first page, battery settings showing screen taking 82% of battery, at least this was not there before. today I flashed google original image without wipe, still same.

why?

hey chainfire.i got problems via fastboot.

anything went wrong by the last flash.got this error message:

sending ´bootloader´ (2308 KB)... OKAY

writing ´bootloader´... FAILED (remote: Unknown Partition)

i can´t install cwm too.

so is it possible to get a full tar image incl. bootloader to re-partition my phone via odin?

I will install a custom rom or new updates via fastboot/cwm but with the problem of the partition i can´t install anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pascanu:
Yes, in theory. I bet chainfire will keep us updated faster than Google though. Am I right Maestro?! ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AMoosa:
Hi CF. Good to see you on the GNex forums. Loved your work on the SGS2. :)

I too am getting FC on Market when updating apps. The only way round it is to uninstall updates so it goes back to stock Market version. This stops FCs when updating apps, but is shortlived. As soon as the Market updates itself within a few minures, it's back to FC itself. What would you suggest?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lurchie85:
I download a full odin rom (4.0.1) with pit over at modaco.but it´s gsm

so far i know there is atm no full lte rom for odin

intresting that nobody in this forum write a how-to to use odin to re-patition or get back to stock rom after brick or something else.

for me it works fine to re-partition my phone after a fail with fastboot (Unknown Partition can´t update or anything else).now i can install again custom roms or use fastboot.

Thanks for the suggesrion Mawdo. That was the first thing i tried. I have also tried wiping dalvik and cache partition. I have also loaded 2 other 4.0.2 ROMs (non wipe) and get the same error.

If i uninstall the Market updates, it all works fine for about 2 minutes. Then Market updates itself ans Im back to squarev1.

Ok that is weird... does it always fail at the radio.img part ?

Get fastboot working. Boot into fastboot mode (turn off device, hold volumeup+volumedown+power to turn on), and use the fastboot method to flash the entire stock image from Google. See if that works. The complete image download contains a .sh file that has the script to flash, under Windows the commands should be almost if not completely the same.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trentreed:
Just use Odin 1.85 to set it straight.

You can always relock the bootloader

(Fastboot oem lock)

You don't need a jig, worst case is once you reflash with Odin you may bootloop but

You will be able to use fastboot to reflash the factory images.

with Odin you don't need root, but if you want to backup you original rom , you need to root it and flash cwm , and then make a backup , and then flash this, if you are not satisfied with the new rom , you restored your original rom:rolleyes:

Thanks for the short guide, Chainfire!

I successfully flashed my gf's Galaxy Nexus today, from Samsung's 4.0.1 yakjuxw build. The device was automatically wiped, just like written, and settings from the cloud was restored without problem.

I followed all the points from the first post, but experience an pretty odd behavior:

The highlight of menu items* got really bad performance. I can see 3-4 steps of "fading" when before it was smooth ("step less") as butter.

I also feel that the app drawer is a bit slower when flinging between "app page". Feels like micro stallings.

* Where the selected item turns blue and quickly fades away before screen transaction

Did I miss anything? The device was completely stock (e.g. it wasn't and isn't rooted, haven't got CWM installed).

Promised my gf the device would be just as good as before, with only a few minor "under the hood changes"... now it isn't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thvpham:
Now that I have ICL53F loaded. I want to test out the 4.0.3 builds. Do I need CMW or root? Or both? I'm familiar with rooting using Odin and CF-root but I'm unsure how to install CMW.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mawdo:
Flash the cf-root kernel via odin (the simplest way for you) and then download "Rom Manager " from the market and install Cwm, if not you can root and install Cwm with the GN TOOLKIT V2.2 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1392310 ), this tool does anything and very easy to used/fun once you understand it :-P
