Wtf is takju lol

Thanks you make me blush lol :)

Im trying to build a stock image for the FD01 sprint rom so it can be uploaded to goo.im. Users could then download it directly and flash it all via the ToolKit. As it doesnt look like google are going to officially support sprint models I thought I may as well ;)

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
LOL takju is the US version of the gsm yakju build (for people who imported the gsm model to America or bought it sim free via US websites) just with google wallet included. As far as I know thats the only difference to the stock yakju build.

Reboot you pc, sometimes that helps or try another usb port
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsinc1962:
I had the same problem. Even though I'm on ATT I downloaded this set of drivers and it worked perfectly. If you pick on downloads and then the software tab at the bottom of the page the download shows up.

I ran the restore on option 2. I didn't have any passwords. My phone says that the restore is complete, but none of my apps appear. Is there a step somewhere that I'm missing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
What size is the backup file? How long did the restore take? which options did you select for the backup?

Mark.

Crap, I think I didn't have debugging on. :o

I'll try to get that done next time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scottspa74:
Is it possible to install insecure boot img thru bootloader? Because then with at least temp root, you could use terminal emulator to do the rest (I believe). Thus making it unnecessary to even use a computer at all for the process.

I'm just curious cuz I was able to root my Evo 4g completely with S-off without using a PC for anything, just by using terminal emulator. I'd like to do the same if I get galaxy nexus, if possible. But, on Evo, we had a leaked eng build of the ruu (I believe it would have been an ruu) so we could get temp root to unlock and install custom recovery via term emulator.

Much thanks to anyone who chimes in on this. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dougxd:
Hey Mark.....

So I've noticed that with CWM Touch recovery the "progress bar" doesn't work. Well, technically it works, I know :-). I guess the recovery is by default set to speed up the backup/restore operation by not wasting resources on keeping a realtime readout for the enduser.

Any chance that can be made into an option in the toolkit? I know it takes longer to backup/restore while the status is being read back in realtime, but it's a comfort that I've gotten used to over the years and I'm willing to spend the extra time that's required as a result. Thanks.

Thank you very much I was messin up a lil but all good now thanks again! great job!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sile2001:
Having a bit of a strange issue after unlocking the bootloader. Here's the series of events:

1. Get GNex, Sprint rep applies the OTA update while I'm looking the other way. Not sure if relevant.

2. Can't get the phone to be recognized in fastboot mode, only in ADB

3. PDANet drivers finally get the phone recognized in fastboot, and I use the toolkit to unlock the bootloader

4. After booting back into the OS, I initially had the "no data" issue described by someone else in the thread (couldn't update profile or PRL either), but that cleared up automatically within 5 minutes

5. Now I can't get it to be detected via the ADB driver, so I can't use the toolkit to root it. In my devices list, instead of the previous "Android ADB device" (or something like that), I now have 3 related devices.

>Universal Serial Bus controllers

--->SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device

>Portable Devices

--->Galaxy Nexus

>Other Devices

-->Galaxy (drivers did not load for this device)

I've tried different USB ports, tried toggling USB debugging, tried ripping out the Samsung and PDANet drivers I installed, and have rebooted both my PC and the GNex a few times, and it still won't load the correct driver and ADB can't detect any ADB devices. Anyone run into this?

I used the tool to upgrade to leaked stock 4.0.4 IMM76K. Worked well except something weird happened to my SD and I couldn't delete anything on the SD card. So I used CWM on the tool to wipe and flashed AOKP (with IMM76K radios still on the device). Works excellent!

Donated and hope your wife's fundraiser is going well, it's a good cause. Should I be receiving the Extras passcode automatically via email?

Also, for my IMM76K device, to flash AOKP, choosing Device 11 (IMM30B) from the menu worked fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LAYGO:
Looking for some feedback. I seem to be in a weird state of flux with my root.

I used Toolkit 6.0 on 4/23 to get rooted/unlocked.

I used Titanium (per the log) on 4/23 to restore apps from my EVO backup.

I successfully flashed the FD01 radios on 5/1.

I successfully upgraded CWM to 5.8.3.1 & then flashed the FD02 radios on 5/7 & then did the FD02-update-no-radios.zip.

It seems like my boot image is now secure (?). While booting, I have the unlock image, fastboot status shows "Lock state: unlocked", just noticed it says Variant: toro 32gb. Should that read toroplus?

If I load Root Explorer, I get access granted, but if I load Titanium Backup, I see SU's "access granted", but TB says root access denied, pops up a warning & I can't do anything. I just tested to see if I could mount R/W w/RE & it doesn't do anything.

I'm hesitant to move from here. The phone works, but I'm not sure how to proceed. Is it safe to flash a new ROM or do I need to redo step 7 with 6.1?

Any feedback appreciated . . .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
Thank you :)

If you donated through the ToolKit then you should have had a link to goto the passcode site after completing checkout but if not then send me your email and I will send the details.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
It might be worth redoing the root process as im not sure how the FD02 affects root. It cant hurt.

I dont know what the variant normally reads in the toroplus models so maybe someone else with the same setup can comment on that.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DatDude123:
If I knew how to check that I could help out. I used this process yesterday with complete perfection

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
If you boot into fastboot mode then it will give you the variant in the text at the bottom left.

All mine said was:

toro 32gb

Of course I am unlocked, rooted, and custom ROM'd. Hopefully that doesn't matter.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JLO155:
Awesome tool mskip!!! Incredibly user friendly and easy to use! I used it to unlock my bootloader on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus and flash Android 4.0.4 IMM76K by booting to CWM recovery without permanently flashing it. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dougxd:
Couldn't agree more!! Consider a little donation to the dev if the tool turns out to be an essential piece of your arsenal. I sure as hell did........ One of the best donations I've kicked out in a long time. Sorry.....don't mean to be a pimp, but this toolkit kicks some serious arse! :p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EnViiDisLoCo:
This tool kit is awesome rooted my GNex the same day I got it no flaws what's so ever...I Love You Xda every one keep up the good work....

Now onto a problem my boy is having....not even 2 weeks he had his GNex his volume rockers stopped working. I'm more then sure its a physical problem with the hardware and can't be software related. So we wanna send the phone back to Sprint but can use Odin to flash back to stock because we can't put the phone into Odin Download mode....No Rockers...!!!! Any suggestions
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesusice:
Could you adb reboot into download mode? Or at least adb reboot bootloader and then fastboot the .imgs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
I was working on a fastboot image of the FD01 toroplus build but stopped because of lack of interest. If you can boot the phone into Android (gets to the lockscreen when booting up) then you can use option 21 (reboot phone options) to boot the phone into fastboot mode (option 3). I can finish the image so you could then use option 8 in the ToolKit to download and flash it. You would then just need to use option 11 to relock the bootloader.

Just be aware first though if this is what you want to do that I dont have a toroplus model and cant test the image so I cant guarantee it will work and you will be the first to test it. Your choice :)

Of course if it does work then all Sprint users will be able to flash to FD01 Stock Rom using the ToolKit if they need to.

You cant use adb reboot to boot into download mode as far as I know the only way you can do it if the volume button isnt working is with a micro usb jig which you can buy on ebay.

Mark.

Hi,can I use this tool to convert to a yakju build from any other build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
As long as its a gsm model phone then yes you can flash yakju to it. You cant flash yakju to a sprint or verizon phone as the radios are different.

I have made a Sprint Stock FC12 image but I need to know the Bootloader, Radio and Radio-cdma versions for the FC12 build before I can send it out for testing. If anyone has this information please let me know so Sprint users can go back to Stock using the ToolKit.

If you have FC12 build (the build it came with originally) then shut down the phone and reboot into fastmode or use the ToolKit to reboot into fastboot using the reboot options, then read the lines at the bottom.

Thanks for the feedback, sorry I didn't respond sooner, went out of town to see Mom! :)

I got some help from IRC (thanks DrDr3w/bigrushdog). It seems, as I suspected, that I lost the insecure boot image. I flashed CM 9a 509 nightly & it worked in regaining my root. Was just wanting to make sure that by flashing with in that state that it wouldn't further hose me. It all worked out . . .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EnViiDisLoCo:
Hey Mark nothing yet on that FD02 stock img ???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
I have made an FC12 Stock Image for the Sprint if you want to try flashing that through the ToolKit to see if it brings his phone back to life. You should then be able to OTA update it back to FD02 if my Image works.

I am uploading it now so let me know if you want to try it and I will send you the link as it hasnt been tested so its not being made public yet.

Not quite sure what I'm missing on this.

Downloaded 6.2

Selected 13, Sprint Galaxy Nexus ( I'm on 4.0.4 IMM76D.L700FD002 )

Selected 1, installed adb drivers ( Win 7 x64 )

Could see phone serial under ADB mode of the screen after

Could browse phone storage with android commander

Can see "Samsung Galaxy Nexus ADB Interface" under Android Phone in Device manager.

Unplugged phone

Selected 7, for '1-Click for all'

Booted phone into fastboot

Held Volume down and Power button

Waited about 30 seconds after fastboot menu came up

Plugged phone back into usb

Typed 'yes' into GNexToolkit

I get message "<Waiting for device>" after about 20 minutes I unplugged the phone and was able to boot into my phone fine.

I tried this a second time, uninstalling ADB, rebooting, installing ADB, rebooting, followed previous steps, and got the same result.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lionelhuts:
Just boot into fastboot mode with the USB plugged in. You can even use the Toolkit to boot into fastboot mode (option 21).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashire:
Sweet, that did the trick, had to use toolkit to boot it into fastmode twice though for samsung galaxy nexus bootloader interface driver to work.

Also screen looked completely different than when i did it with vol down and power button.

Anyways, thanks a ton for the help.

Additional note toolkit author: bit.ly/gnexdonate is showing a warning that its been reported and potentially dangerous.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
Thats because booting the phone with the vol down and power button puts in in Download Mode which is used for odin flashing. Fastboot mode is vol down + vol up + power button ;).

Glad everything worked out though :).

You need to unlock your bootloader if you want to modify the system part of the phone in any way (apart from 4.01/4.0.2 builds which have an exploit but much more complicated to do).

Hey mskip how do i update from 6.1to 6.2 just install will it overwrite or do i need to delete the old one for new one
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] do0b:
I'm trying to unlock my bootloader but i'm not sure if i'm doing it right. i've installed all the drivers, i can see my phone on both ADB mode and fastboot mode. when i select 3 to unlock bootloader, while in fastboot mode, nothing happens. as in, it just goes back to the main menu.

EDIT: ZOMG!! i kept typing 'Y' instead of 'YES'.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JagoRacing:
how do i unroot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
You can simply install v6.2 over v6.1 if you want to or you can run the uninst.exe from the ToolKit folder to remove all installed files (leaving any mods or backups intact). If you have abd running in the Task Manager then you may get a message that it wouldnt copy across but thats nothing to worry about as its the same version.

I will be releasing v6.3 tomorrow hopefully with alot of new partition backup/restore options I have been working on.

It's not showing my phone at all, even if I choose option 13. My phone has USB debugging on, plugged in, and when the need arises, is successfully in ADB mode.

You might want to consider adding a GUI, as it's really annoying when you cause an exception error by pressing enter :rolleyes: lol

You can use option 2 in the ToolKit to backup your installed apps and associated usedata so that you can restore them after flashing a new rom.

Device not recognized is Fastboot mode

I have used toolkit previously to unlock bootloader and change build. Now device is only recognized in ADB not Fastboot. What am I doing wrong folks?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mekagoten:
Help

Used v6.0 of this to root my Galaxy Nexus, but then the OTA update would fail. So took the phone to a sprint store to have the update flashed on. Now I cant use v6.2 to root. It does the first auto-reset, but instead of having me fill out the whole 'welcome to android' thing, and turn on Debug, it leaves my phone as it was. I managed to unlock the bootloader though.

On the ToolKit, its recognizing my phone, has the number and everything, but it says its offline. So i went into DOS and did "adb devices" to check, and it also says 'offline'. So I ran the "adb connect (my phone id number that appears in the toolkit) " and it said unable to connect.

Any help here?

Alrdy tried unchecking and rechecking the USB Debug after the first reboot (when doing the root process). Nothing. Toolkit just hangs on the "Waiting for USB Debugging to be enabled"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
adb only work in Android, try fastboot devices.

*This is my shallow understanding, correct me if i'm wrong*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
If it says device is offline then try unplugging and replugging the usb cable to the phone and then try refreshing the ToolKit to see if the status changes.

If that doesnt work then open the Device Manager on your pc and boot your phone into fastboot mode (dont plug the usb cable in yet). Plug the cable in while watching the Device MAnager and determine which item is added to the list with the device plugged in. If the driver isnt installed then it should say 'Android 1.0' in the list. Once you have found it right click on the item and select update driver. Select 'browse my computer' from the list and then browse to the 'drivers' folder in the ToolKit (wherever you installed the ToolKit to). Make sure sub folders is ticked and click next. Hopefully the driver will be picked up and installed.

You can check if a driver has been installed by looking at the top of the Main Menu in the ToolKit while in fastboot mode. If a serial number is displayed then it should work fine.

Restore didn't work

After unlocking and rooting, I tried to restore of the backup I had made before starting.

I chose the backup from the group, it found it, I went to my phone, put in the password, it says the restore started, then immediately, "restore ended" and nothing had restored.

When I did the backup, I watched it restore all my stuff, and it took about 30 minutes. So, I know it had all of my stuff backed up.

What went wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
Exactly what options did you choose for the backup? Did you include virtual sd card as part of the backup?

I dont think the adb backup likes passwords very much it might be worth trying it without setting a password and dont include virtual sd card as it doesnt like that either.

Also check the filename doesnt have any special characters in it and is just letters and numbers.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vance14:
No, I didn't include the virtual SD card, and I know I got the filename right on the restore because the first couple of times I typed it in wrong and it said it so, then when I typed it correctly, it said it found the file and my phone screen came on. I typed in the password, and it said it the restore was starting, then ended without restoring anything.

It does no good to do a backup now, of course, because all my stuff is wiped out by the unlocking and rooting. I will have to manually restore every app and settings, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
You can try doing the restore again with that backup file. I have had a few instances where it took 2 or 3 attempts before the restore went all the way through. The backup option in adb is a very new addition so im assuming there are a few bugs that they need to iron out.

Mark.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmj12345:
Hi all, desperately looking for some help here. Last week my volume rocker stopped working, and apparently is permanently pressing volume "down" because my phone will only boot into safe mode.

It's rooted and I'm running Gummy Nex and thought "no problem, I'll unroot, flash it back to stock, re-lock the bootloader and bring it in to Verizon for replacement". Long story short I cannot for the life of me get the phone to be recognized correctly while in fastboot mode. ADB drivers load fine, I reboot into the bootloader and in device manager it comes up as "unknown device", tries to install the drivers and fails. I've tried to manually point it to the drivers in the Toolkit folder, but it says that the drivers could not be found. I've tried to manually point it to the samsung adb interface driver, which then installs, but no matter what I cannot get the toolkit to list any devices when I'm in fastboot mode.

I've tried unsuccessfully on 4 different computers (all windows 7) and am not sure where to go from here. I tried to used Odin 1.3 to restore back to stock but appeared to have the same problem- couldn't communicate w/ the phone while in bootloader. I'm going crazy here and all I want to do is get my phone back to stock!

Any suggestions would seriously be much appreciated...

Thanks in advance.
