It might work. I'm not positive. I would love to make it for other devices but I only have a Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] objectuser:
Yeah, it would be nice, but understand that.

After reading the steps in the N7 thread, it sure seems like the same procedure. I have an N7 arriving in a few days ... I might give it a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Yeah if you try it let me know so I can start to make this tool for the Nexus 7 as wel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Awesome tool kit mtp is rendered useless however. Everything works fine except I'm.not able to transfer files after I root or unroot. Any suggestions or help this is annoying. I searched also btw and even returning to stock did nothing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
You need to use Android FIle Transfer to transfer files between Android and Mac.

http://www.android.com/filetransfer/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] objectuser:
It did work. I downloaded the versions of CWM and SU referenced in this thread.

The only differences were:

I removed the options for the various versions of the Galaxy Nexus since there's ONLY ONE NEXUS 7! :silly:

I updated the script to point to the versions of CWM and SU from the N7 thread.

The N7 asked me if I wanted to restore (default?) recovery at the end before rebooting (I don't remember the GNEX asking me that). I said yes.

So yeah, I think that's awesome. Really glad I tried your script!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dainese01:
donated. Thanks so much!

I think it might be important to tell users that phone should be booted at each step that the script is pushing files and taking action?

Unless I did something wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Thank you very much!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] afraaa:
i did already done this , but your work deserve to hit thanks ... thank u
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireshot91:
Uhhh, I have no idea what I did, or if I messed up somewhere (How, I have no idea...).

Basically, it asked me to unlock bootloader, it'll wipe data, I pressed enter. Then, Nexus rebooted, etc. and there was a screen that looked like recovery (Not sure if stock, or not). I hit volume up + Power to unlock bootloader, and then I hit Start at the next screen.

Now, it booted up as a new phone (Wiped, which I was okay with since I was unlocking bootloader).

Really, people praise this as a developer device ready to root and modify to your heart's content...but my GalaxyS/S2 were a lot easier to root :p.

EDIT: I got it to work. Didn't realize you have to restart after unlocking bootloader to get it to root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
What's the problem and what toolkit did you use?

Edit: Oh, saw you got it working...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireshot91:
Actually, have another problem now. CWM...

I used the one that did unlock + root + CWM, however CWM doesn't seem to have flashed?

I can't seem to get into it. I hold up+down+Power to enter into bootloader, and then go up 2x, and hit Enter into Recovery....but it just takes me to an Android 'bot with a red ! triangle.

It does the same through CWM also. And I am rooted, and the bootloader is unlocked....

EDIT: Maybe I should mess around before I start posting :p. I flashed it through ROM Manager.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Use the toolkit that installs clockworkmod recovery but right after it finishes you will see a green start screen. Enter into clockworkmod recovery right away (volume up 2x) and then reboot systen now in clockworkmod recovery.

You just need to do that for the very first time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evaradar:
Great toolkit and thanks!

By the way, when will flashing images be updated to the toolkit such as the windows one? I.e. Wug's Toolkit?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Jelly Bean Images?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evaradar:
Yes.

I will try to get it up by the weekend. Just difficult to manage school, my website, and my youtube channel.

But I'll try to find some time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccsoccer23:
techfanatic9, accord to your comment in this post:

http://andr0idtech.blogspot.com/201...howComment=1344549886532#c5335980735013651986

Unrooting shouldn't have wiped out my phone. Any idea why it got wiped? Is there a specific location on the phone that doesn't get touched, seeing as there is no external sd..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Oh, that was a mistake...I thought I ready "Locking Bootloader" but it was unrooting.

Unrooting is the same as restore back to 100% stock (Odin for Mac).

Sorry!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccsoccer23:
Well I would like to add that I had to unlock boot loaders during the unroot process and read that wipes the device.. so that could explain why I got a full wipe, unless of course that process still does an full wipe.

Anyways thanks for the response
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evaradar:
No worries. Take your time!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hazimjaved:
Any idea where can i find bootloader unlock icons which shows on bottom of screen with google screen???

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
i think ive just managed to gain root access with your great manual guide and youtube vid, thanks.

Trouble is now i dont know what to do next?! Im on 4.04 and all i want to do is get onto the stock factory image for Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Yakju-jro03c - which ive already downloaded from google. How can i get it on there so to speak???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
I have made a new toolkit so you can restore to stock Jelly Bean. Check it out on the front page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evaradar:
Checked it out briefly (didn't download and execute). So we can use this to flash yakjux ICS versions to yakju JB right? I.e. grabbing the image from Google itself? Does it flash the system, user data, boot and recovery files too along with the zip?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
It will flash all Jelly Bean parts. I got it directly from Google servers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evaradar:
Nice! Thanks again! Will check it out for sure and try it out heh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobitronics:
Hi all,

I used this toolbox to root my phone and install superuser. However, I want to try out SuperSU so I want to uninstall superuser. But it does not show up under my apps and titanium backup nor ADB nor terminal could remove it. Titanium didn't list the app and Terminal/ADB said "rm failed for -f, No such file or directory". How do I get rid of superuser?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ghostface22:
will this tool carrier unlock on stock jelly bean?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
It wil unlock the bootloader. Not the carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikhil711:
STILL stuck on Red Dead Android

RESOLVED: I used the newest CWM v6.0.1.1 located here and once you "reboot system now", its asks if you want to disable stock recovery flash...hit yes and no more dead Android!

I followed the instructions to the exact detail (following your video) and for some reason after installing CWM...my phone (on Stock Jelly Bean) did not reboot twice. Now I tried redoing those steps AND tried your toolkit to fix the CWM installation and its still not holding. What am I doing wrong?

I also used the video guide on this page (http://ultimatedroid.blogspot.com/2012/08/how-to-get-rid-of-red-triangle-dead_27.html) and its still not working...I go into bootloader, choose recovery mode and it goes to the dead Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colomob:
i have an issue and i dont know where to go anymore. i wanna get the JB stock update ether OTA or Flashing it. right now im on custom rom. i only have the bootloader unlocked. i have a mac. what can i do??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
What type of phone do you have? GSM, Verizon, or Spint?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] h4rl4n:
Is a GUI version ever going to be available?

[Q]

This will wipe my phone, right?

Apologies if this has already been asked, I looked through the thread but didn't see the answer to my question.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Matters what toolkit your using, but yes, some toolkits will wipe your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whpsnp:
Thanks, forgot to mention. I meant the root toolkit for GSM version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vahdyx:
Oh man, thank you a million bucks, I for sure will donate! Thanks man, you saved me from getting an iPhone and jailbreaking it! I was thinking since I switched to mac I'd be forced to get one since nothing seems to be compatible with Mac.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vahdyx:
I just wanna make sure I know what I'm doing here.

I am on stock jelly bean, I just unrooted my phone and went back to ICS on GSM Nexus. Now I wanna root it, and the root tool I choose was

**GalaxyNexusRoot GSM/Verizon/Sprint**

When I click on the click me it says it's for Galaxy Nexus 4.0.4

So I'm a little concerned on doing this, should it be fine?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Yes it will delete everything from your phone so be sure to backup anything you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whpsnp:
Thanks! Your tool worked very well for me but somehow the phone was not wiped. My bootloader is now unlocked, I have CWM installed and I checked with Terminal Emulator that I have root access. It returned a nice looking "#". I was on stock JB when I started and still am with all data and apps untouched.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Use the unroot tool
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgeigel:
so i'm rusty in my rooting skills & I just got the gnex.

I'm already on jelly bean & I just got a,mac. I'm unsure which toolkit to use to root my phone. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whpsnp:
Root for GSM :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgeigel:
Thanks...I'm unable to download the file from the link, its not there for some reason. Is there another place I can get it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BAWS:
Is it possible to root via this guide if I have a unlocked GNex with stock 4.1.1?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgeigel:
So I rooted my gnex without a problem but I didn't install clockwork mod on my phone. Is that a problem? Hos can I get cmw?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
If you rooted your phone you also installed ClockworkMod Recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgeigel:
How can I check to see if I have it? Not sure how to get into it on the nex. Thanks

I went into recovery and the droid guy had the red triangle inside him. What does that mean?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgeigel:
My root didn't seem to work. Should I unroot and try again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Did you enter into ClockworkMod Recovery and install the zip file?

If you didin't follow the directions on the toolkit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutantkeyboard:
quick question

hi guys.

I have a silly question now.

I have a rooted maguro (GSM Nexus) and everything works flawlessly, but I just wondered will root still work if I apply

fastboot oem lock

again and lock the bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] insane08:
I Just got my nexus yesterday (unlocked from playstore running on att) so I'm new to this & its on 4.0.4. Now i want to get JB and I have a OTA option on my phone so If i upgrade to 4.1 OTA i know i should use the OP method to ROOT my device with a mac..correct>??

BUT

I am just confused because people are saying they rooted from Maguro or Takju etc.. If somebody could just explain that it would be great

help - appreciate it

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xenox73:
Worked great on my GSM Galaxy Nexus!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] insane08:
alright i followed the video and was able to Root it but at the end it asked me ...

"Rom may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?

THIS CAN NOT BE UNDONE

so i clicked Go Back and it just booted up my phone normally and it must be rooted now since i have superSu but for future reference should i click yes or no ?

I am on stock jelly bean
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Choose "Yes".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whpsnp:
Maguro is the GSM version device name. It comes with a variety of firmware names, yakju, takju, yakjuxw etc.

I believe that out of the GSM versions that are available unlocked takju and yakju are updated directly from Google. The other versions are maintained by Samsung. Samsung maintained versions are afaik identical except that updates are being pushed a little later.

I have a yakjuxw which I updated to 4.1.1 before using the tool in this thread to root it. Had no problems.

If you bought your phone on the US Playstore it should be a takju version, if it's from the Playstore internationally, a yakju. If you bought it unlocked from somewhere else, it will be a yakju**.

EDIT: Forgot that the takju firmware includes Google wallet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] insane08:
Thank you both for the reply.

I had google wallet installed so guessing it was Takju but everything went fine...I had the dead android screen pop up but got away from that via a script (name i cant remember) but things are good now..

If the flash stock reocovery thing ever comes up again I will click yes! I don't want to run other roms I am very happy with the stock experience currently until something with a great battery management shows up. if there is any ROM currently please advise. Thank you! :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Leemur89:
Just a question, I rooted my phone yesterday with no problems. As i checked "root checker" and it says it's rooted.. When i try to enter recovery mode..it would just show the android guy with a red triangle.. Is there something wrong with my root?

Does it support backup/restore

Will this allow a full backup/restore like Wugs Toolkit does on Windows?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
No it does not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
Is there any way to do so?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tomlang:
Will this work on my soft bricked toro? It was rooted and running 4.2 but now will not boot, getting stuck on the google screen. Using adb device command, it did identify itself. I can boot into boot loader or recovery, but my cwm cannot find my recovery images on the new 0 partition, although when looking for .zip files to flash it can find my recoveries. Unfortunately all rom images are gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Not on Mac as far as I know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flx-grafix:
If using the "Unroot/Stock 4.2" Kit, does it overwrite CWM and flash the stock recovery so that OTA updates are possible?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Yes it will install stock recovery and you will be able to get OTA updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] midn12ght:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creaky:
SU binary doesn't install

I used the automated root kit and got hung up with the SuperSU install in CWM recovery. CWM said SD card couldn't be mounted and therefore couldn't find the file in downloads.

So, rebooted and downloaded SuperSU from market. When I opened it up I get the message "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it."

After a search I came across others who have had the same problem. Went to:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

And then downloaded CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip and flashed it in CWM recovery. Rebooted and all was good.

Thanks for the tools!

Can this toolkit able to root the most recent update to OS 4.2.2?

Thanks

Wug's kit is not for macs. Not too mention your comment is disrespectful to efforts made by the OP. I found this tool kit to be very helpful. By the way, what happened to 1kds?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigknowz:

I would have been without a phone until I went to work tomorrow if not for this toolkit. Was stuck at Nexus logo and Wugs wasn't working on my virtual machine. I am exhausted, will take care of the donate tomorrow. THANK YOU!!!!

Sent a little something, great work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melmotion:
Laa Dii Daa! This actually works :) very well and fast. unlocked and rooted 4.2.2 in a few minutes. Thanks Dude.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SeauxCrazy:
Man, was getting fed up with my Nexus with /0 and /legacy folders I decided to do a clean wipe with this toolkit. Followed all the directions, it wiped the phone, but kept the ROM I was running before instead of the stock rom and I don't have any service anymore :/

It cleared all my data on the hard drive though, so no nandroids to jump back to.

I don't consider myself dumb when it comes to flashing, I've been doing it since my Evo 4g. I'm just confused as heck as to what is going wrong.

Edit, nevermind. Finally got it to boot up to install another ROM and flashing Sprint Radio. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] castaway1:
i have question about bootloader.

I have very old bootloader PRIMEKK15 and i running 4.3. Do i need to update my bootloader or it does not matter at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bkrill:
Can you update the manaul file for unrooting/back to stock to 4.3?

I've never been able to get adb working on my galaxy nexus and i prefer OS to windows so using the manual method seems to be my best way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeartStrong07:
Newbie back in the Game

I have been away from rooting for about 5 months, so I need a quick refresher:

My Verizon Galaxy Nexus 4.2.2. has an unlocked bootloader but is not rooted; which link am I using:

Updated One-Click Root Galaxy Nexus GSM/Verizon/Sprint Toolkit

One-Click Unroot/Restore to Stock 4.2.2 Galaxy Nexus Verizon Toolkit

One-Click ClockworkMod Recovery GSM/Verizon/Sprint Toolkit

Thank you

Can't mount /sdcard/

I am in recovery but can't mount the /sdcard/ ... I checked the forum and see a variety of threads and post but none within this thread.

Did anyone experience this issue and what is the solution?

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Can't mount it because it uses MTP. Have to use adb to transfer anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeartStrong07:
Thanks ... Try Again in Week

Okay, I am on 4.2.2 and either I don't have the brain power or patience. I got as far as unlocking, and pushing superuser to the sdcard ... still can't mount the sdcard and really have not figured out a strategy or approach to get this task down ... I will keep searching :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haggisman14:
This was an absolute LIFE SAVER!!!! I seriously thought I made my phone a paperweight. As soon as I tried your tool, it worked flawlessly right from the start.

Only thing that I did notice is that when using this on a Verizon phone, when rooting and adding Super User, it won't show the UPDATE file in CWM. I had to manually moving the file to the SD card, and then boot back into CWM to flash it. Other than that it was perfect.

My phone wasn't being recognized by my computer, and was wiped of the ROM, recovery...everything! This put me back to stock, and now i'm happily running Beanstalk 4.3.1

THANK YOU!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] simon2k10:
Hey Guys,

Just to make sure before sending phone back to samsung here is my plan! ( let me know if i should change some steps or if i am doing something wrong )

1. Restore Bell Stock GB Through Odin ( will increase my flash count )

2. Root Stock GB from Bell and install CWM.

3. Flash the reset counter to bring back the flash count to 0

4. Restore the stock recovery to enable stock ICS update from bell

5. Update OTA or through Kies to stock ICS

I think by doing it that way, the counter will remain at 0 since GB is the last thing to get flashed through odin.

I also read somewhere that samsung can know the previous firmware flashed, flashing the bell stock gb should take care of this.

Is there anything else that i am missing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dcfella:
I sent mine rooted with a custom rom. They didnt care and just sent it back with the original stock unrooted rom after it was repaired.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] simon2k10:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fiveoneooo:
My sim reader appears to be dead. The other day I go to use my phone and it says no signal, restart it and im good, browsing the web when all the sudden i get a message about no sim, insert sim and restart phone. So i restart and it was good for a couple days. Today my phone will not read a sim card. Tried my girlfriends captivate sim and no dice and my sim worked just fine in her phone. I odin back to stock to see if it would help but no dice. Seems like it must be hardware to me, has anybody had a similar problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] goalcam:
Sounds like a bad solder joint or something hardware, unfortunately. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Hardware defects are covered by the warranty, should be able to get it replaced with relatively little hassle.... i say relatively, cause any time you're dealing with a warranty department There is inherently some hassle.
