[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laserbiz:
Why is nothing easy for me? So I used the Casual.Jar to gain Root and it worked after I figured out that I did not need to be in recovery to use it. I guess I am very literal.(I always had to boot the phone or tablet by holding power and volume to boot to that screen before running Root programs)

Any ways I also install Voodoo's Rootkeeper and backup up mu S.U. I then came to find out that Time/Warner was offering live T.V. on my nexus , but would not work if the phone was rooted. Well I used Rootkeeper to temporarily remove root so I couldtry the Time Warner app. Well it still would not work. So I read some posts in a different thread and I deleted the S.U. App from my phone thinking that because I backed it up thru rootkeeper , I would be safe.... WRONG! Something is not right!

When I invoke Rootkeeper and tell it to restore S,.U., it does not work. When I try to re-install S.U. from the playstore, it shows installed. I also downloaded S.U. update fixer and that does not work, it runs in a 1/4 window on my nexus and i cant tap anything. So I figured Why not run Casual.Jar again and it would fix everything. Nope! When I run rootkeeper it shows every boxed checked except Device Rooted in the status window. It alsokives me the option to Delete S.U, back up AND below that ....Temp. un-root (keeps backup) \

Please help. I would like to restore Root and I think back up of S. U. before I run the update 4.04 that Verizon pushed to my phone (I just keep tapping install later. HELP!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdamOutler:
Install superuser from the market. Then run rootkeeper. Then remove superuser.

Root access comes in 2 parts. The su binary that does the work and the superuser app that handles authentication.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laserbiz:
Thanks for the quick response! But As I stated in my previous post,when I go to the market it shows SU as installed, So I cant install it gfrom there. But I cant find the SU on my phone to delete (I think I did that when I tried to run The Time/Warner App.)

But I guess I didn't because The marked Says it is installed! I think I am in a "Logic loop!" is there a way to side load the S.U. App?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laserbiz:
update: I did find the S.U. apk on my phone and thru astro file mgr I tapped on it and it said it would replace tthe exixsiing S.U. App, so i did proceed and it said it installed,and then I rebooted and when I go to my app drawer, the S.U. app is still not there,

Also when I try to remove the S.U. back up thru Voodo's rootkeeper it just freezes. any other program that requires root including Titanium back up wont work becase it cant gain root rights...... Please Help again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Hi Guys...really need your help.

I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I had 4.02 and rooted the phone. This worked fine.

But this morning I keep getting request to update my phone OTA with IMM76K and when I download the update and click to run it...the phone resets and Google icon comes on the phone and nothing else happens. If I pull the battery I basically get the phone running again and the update requests start coming again.

Please let me know how to fix this.

Thank you again for the root and for any help with this problem.

Andre
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
If its just the root blocking the update I wonder if it would only be a matter of installing ota rootkeeper. That may allow the update to run and then you could restore your root after the update.

I'm a bit surprised though. I thought the updates just plowed over your root as opposed to getting hung up on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MystaMax:
Nice!

Nice find @NCguy, never heard of that app until now. Looks handy.

I read some reviews on the Play Store for this app (http://goo.gl/9mzmQ), sorted the reviews by phone (Galaxy Nexus) and many say this allows you keep root after updating:

Looks like this will solve @skiiman1's problems. Let us know if it does!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Going to try it now. Will let you know!

---------- Post added at 12:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 AM ----------

Still hanging at the Google screen...I ran the OTA Rootkeeper...should I let it do a temporary un-root? Then try to run the OTA update...then try to restore the root using the OTA Rootkeeper?

My original attempt that didn't work was just running the OTA Rootkeeper but now running the un-root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Yes
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Not working :(

I ran the OTA Rootkeeper...the phone now says -un rooted in the status menu for the OTA Rookeeper program.

I then ran the OTA update IMM76K which reset the phone and immediately goes to the google icon and just stays there
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Is the phone completely stock except for root. Is the recovery stock?

Edit: If not you should flash a stock 4.0.4 rather than using the OTA. Its not hard to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
In terms of mods...the only thing I have done is running the Galaxy Nexus Root Casual R117
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
I'm not too familiar with it but i think installing CWM is an option and I think you may have to flash a stock 4.0.4 if CWM has been installed rather than update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
I did not do the CWN install...are you saying I need to do this?

---------- Post added at 01:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------

Right now I used the program to Root...then I used the OTA Rootkeeper to "un-root" so I would think that the phone is essentially stock right now...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
If you didn't install CWM then you should be able to run the update. But if the update won't run and the op isn't available to help then you may end up having to flash a stock ROM. I'd wait a day to see if the op is monitoring the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Is there a way to stop the annoying requests to complete the update until OP gets back?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
If you restore root I think the update file can be moved or renamed but I'm not sure how to do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Hopefully OP can shed some lights on the problem I am having soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Fixed it but I am still having 1 problem.

How I was able to finally update:

I went ahead and did the CWM for verizon in addition to rooting (I had not done the CWN before)....prior to doing the CWN I downloaded the update.zip file associated with 4.04 and installed it on my SD card...ran the CWN function and booted into recovery mode (I think that's what it is called)...scrolled down to run the update...that ran with no problems...phone restarted and showed the 4.04 in the settings ---> about phone.

I ran the OTC Rootkeeper to re-root and that worked as well.

Now for my 1 problem.

Last night I thought maybe it was the superuser program that wasn't letting me do the OTA 4.04 update...so I went into settings --->apps-->superuser and clicked on "disable" after doing this and restarting the phone the superuser app no longer appeared in my app list. When I would go into marketplace it would show that superuser is "installed" and if I used EX Fileexplorer I was able to find the superuser.apk file and when clicking on it would see that it was there.

At this point however...I can't run the superuser app or see it in my app menu. I have tried running apps that require superuser access and they don't work. So I am wondering if there is anyway to re-install the superuser app so that it appears in my regular program menu.

Any and all help is very much appreciated :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Yes, it can be reflashed. If you install this toolkit and read the instructions real well you can do anything you want. Also the op is excellent and very responsive.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20310500
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiiman1:
Hi thanks for the advice. Does flashing cause a wipe of the phone? I went to the link you suggested and it seems that toolkit allows a user to make many modifications, but I don't understand which modification I should select.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
It depends on what you flash. Just flashing root should not.

Before you get into all that did you try just going back into settings apps superuser and where you clicked "disable" there should now be an "enable". Did you try clicking that?

Security Essentials Doesn't Like This File

Hi All,

Security essentials is flagging GalaxyNexusRoot-Busybox-CWM-Unlock.jar and associated temp files as a "Severe Exploit". Maybe it has to do with the root method (mempodroid?), but I wanted to see if anyone had more insight.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I know I'm quoting an old post, but there now actually is a way now to unlock the bootloader on a GNex without wiping and with no root, but it requires the use of OMAPFlash, which as far as I know only runs on Windows. Not sure if it is even possible to package it up using CASUAL, and even if it is, not sure if [MENTION=3682533]AdamOutler[/MENTION] would even have any interest/time to do it.

[Epic 4G General] MeetFace:
Yes, this is shameless advertising to be sure.

But a while ago I created a Battlefield 3 Epic 4G thread that had some good participation. I've since stopped playing that, b/c it's too addicting (a major freaking time-sink-hole) =]

So, I just loaded up Tribes Ascend (Free to Play), and it's actually quite fun, very low learning curve, and best of all...FREE. Hit up the link below to get started. I find online gaming is a little more enjoyable when you are "with" (no thanks, I'm married) someone.

https://account.hirezstudios.com/tribesascend/?referral=2094192&utm_campaign=email

Yes that is my referral link, you don't have to use it if you don't want. Just Google Tribes Ascend.

Ciao & Thanks!

P.S. Let me know if you sign up or are already playing, I'll update the OP to include everyone's gamertags so we can add each other as friends.

I just bought this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/330698068250?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I just needed a spare battery, Usually I come home from school with like 65% left but for some reason I like to spend money on my GNeX accesories, so I bought this battery. I hope it has NFC but for 4$ whatever.

So my question is, anyone know where to find a 1750MAH battery charger like those ones that samsung sells where the batter just slips in and the lid closes? I need one but not prepared to pay the 20-30$.

Any cheap ones that you guys use that work well?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atatistcheff:
I found this one on Amazon and it's in the mail now. Seems cool because you can adjust the charging pins to fit lots of different rectangular batteries. Haven't received it yet but if you're interested I'll repost after I do.

Alright thanks man . Anyone else got a battery charger they'd like to recxommend ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] androidtoy09:
Please keep us updated once you receive your battery. I'm also looking for a spare legit OEM battery.

As for the charger, I bought this: http://www.amazon.com/QCell-Samsung..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1335839467&sr=1-2

it's only $4.99 and works just fine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
The pic on that listing shows nfc on the picture of the battery, but like all fake Samsung batteries, it won't actually have it. I say when you get it, report that the item received was not what was listed and get a refund. It won't be worth anyone's time or money to pay for return shipping, so you'll end up with a free battery and the person who listed that will hopefully learn from their attempted scam.

Sent from my HP Touchpad running ICS :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Okaay:
Hmm yeah I'll see it it supports nfc and if it doesn't, I might get the 3.99$ back but eh, it still didn't say anything about nfc in the description and this guy has a good eBay reputation so whatever

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skayalgomas:
Hi to everyone! Is my first thread here. I have a Samsung Vibrant SGH-T959 and try to update using Odin3 v1.85. Everything go well but at end apear Fail in Odin and the phone turn off. I think the phone go to restart but never turn on again and I can't turn on now. I press power botton and no response. I try to put it in download mode or recovery mode and I can't. :( What is next? I order a JIG, but a friend told me that no correct my problem.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moped_Ryder:
One does not update via Odin (well 99% of the time IMO) Odin is usually used to revert to stock and reset partitions.

Did you have the repartition checked?

Did you try and flash a ROM or Boot loaders?

When you hook the phone to the computer and open up Odin does it still show a yellow box? If so flash back to JFD and start over.

If you tried to flash bootloaders your only hope of unbricking it may be a JTAG service (google it).

It may be late for you now...but a warning to others - Messing with Odin is one of the quickest ways to brick your phone. I dont think Ive ever actually heard of anyone hard brick a T959 without Odin.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haxel:
Unless your updating the boot loader hard brick is near impossible. Odin is not to blame, and the risk is negligible.

My vibrant died a few days ago reverting to stock to deposit a check (so GPS would work). Sounds like the phone just died. Mine is hardware dead and sounds just like yours. Wont turn on or acknowledge a current when plugged into the charger.

BTW: Unlike some other phones, if you click re-partition on the Vibrant and have the pit file. You can repartition and it not muck up the phone... well unless the repartitioning itself went AWOL.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dseldown:
I agree with ya Moped_Ryder about the quirks of using Odin, although Ive never had a problem with it, as long as I do or don't tick the wrong buttons or try flashing the wrong SW for the wrong application ETC ETC!!

Ironically, a half a day too late, I found out about the dangers and horrors of using the Samsung Kies update, and that was what BRICKED my phone,:eek::mad: Its corrupted the primary and 2ndary Boot-loaders, BUT again it wasn't ODIN that did it!! Personally I use CWM to flash anything above stock JFD.

BTW I JUST INSTALLED YOUR ROM GREAT WORK, IVE NEVER SEEN FROYO ACT AND PERFORM SO WELL! WHY WOULD I REVERT BACK TO FROYO, BECAUSE IVE HAD TOO MANY WEIRD PROBLEMS WITH ALL THE ICS's and Froyo cured all the app problems I needed working and plus Ive got the loud ringtone again ETC ETC!! Only thing I miss. Is not being able to use my FFC I modded the phone with. I'm wondering if there is a way to port that part of the needed SW into your Froyo to support FFC's Sometimes Old is better, but to each their own!! Anyway great job, Thanks a ton!!;)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
Unfortunately you have a hard brick. I know, I did the same thing. Fortunately it doesn't mean your phone is toast. Go to mobiletechvideos.com, you need a JTAG service. I also recommend the Unbrickable Mod. They can do that service for you. You can find out more about unbrickable mod, search in xda. Good luck!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pig Vomit:
Don't necessarily give up.

My phone was doing the same thing after I screwed up a flash. The screen would not light up and there was no indication of the phone powering up at all no matter what I did. Tried all sorts of tricks (researched from XDA) to get into download mode or otherwise get it to at least partially boot, aboslutely nothing worked. Out of desperation, I found a guy within driving distance of me that sold jigs, got one within a couple of hours. Popped the jig into my phone, went right into download mode, flashed stock no problem. Phone has worked fine ever since.

Don't give up. Hopefully the jig will work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikka06:
I had a similar issue with my phone after using Odin,it was completely hard bricked. As I am in Europe no possibility for Jtag but I found the Unbrickable Mod by Adam Outler. Using it you really need very good soldering skills. If you're not good with that try to find someone to do it on any electronic repairs or something, that's the way that I did,it will cost you few bucks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockr75:
You cannot brick this phone. I thought I bricked mine a couple times and panicked like hell only to have fixed the problem. Odin is reverting back to 2.1 or 2.2 if you mess up. If you are having trouble with Odin, try Heimdall. As far as turning your phone on, take out the battery, put it back in, plug in usb with odin or heimdall running, volume up and down while pressing power button. Hold this until download mode shows up. odin back to stock. After this, try re-flashing the new firmware you tried, but read the developers instructions again before doing so. I hope this helped :)

Even if you brick the phone hopelessly with a bad bootloader flash, it's not really lost. If you Google something like "Vibrant jtag repair" you'll find that you can get you phone fixed.
