[Android General] :
Is unrooting is possible?
[Android General] :
Please explain the flash procedure it wont start downloading. I have to start download with phone switched off or on
[Android General] ontherocks62:
Yes, unrooting is possible. But for that you will have to backup the partitions before you go ahead and root, so that later you could use them to bring it to a state before rooting. It is highly recommended.

Follow the steps in the link below to take a backup of the original firmware first. This procedure doesn't require rooting.

[Android General] :
After I click download just the countdown starts and nothing happens afterwards nothings found is shown.
[Android General] ontherocks62:
Your phone should be in a switched off state. Now connect the usb cable from phone to PC.

Goto device manager. You should see an entry on the top "Android Phone" and underneath it "Android Composite ADB Interface".

Do you see them? If not the drivers are not installed or installed incorrectly.

If you do not see them, on the menu bar click "View", then select "Show hidden devices".

Now you should see them, in which the icon for "Android Composite ADB Interface" will be slightly greyed out. Which means the drivers are not installed correctly. Right click on it and select "Update Driver Software...". Select the location of the downloaded driver and install it.

Close device manager. Take out the usb cable from PC and plug it back again. Open device manager. Do you now see "Android Phone"? (I mean without enabling "Show hidden devices")

Remember in all this process the phone should be in switched off state.
[Android General] :

Since there are no custom roms for this phone yet (and I think it will never be), there is actually no fun rooting it. I have rooted my phone and see no use of rooting now.

Nonetheless, I will try to put up a step by step tutorial with download links to all things required by today.

oks........you can also use customs rom made for spice 350n and Micromax a75 and fly iq275 these phones have same hardware specification..... i have also use GBsandvich v2 and ios these are works better and smothe :x in thses cases just change boot.img file with A80 boot.img file .....and your done :x....

try these customs roms at your own rick :X dude
[Android General] ontherocks62:
I have tried all these ROMs and some other from Gionee GN170 too. Unfortunately none of them work 100%.

Micromax A75 roms, though look good and seem smoother, have problems with major functionalities, like camera doesn't work, etc. Fly IQ275 & Gionee GN170 roms have problems with language and messed up capacitive key order. Even though you select English language, still some Russian remain here and there. There could be hacks to resolve these problems, but for me its too much of headache to find these and resolve one by one. Got fed up with all these and got back to stock A80 rom. And due to these annoying problems, now have no enthusiasm to try any other non A80 rom.

sp flash tool error 8100

Dear friend who has got "sp flash tool error 8100" while rooting A80 , please try this one .

after loading zip file to SDcard dont trun off the phone . keep the USB cable attached to it pc . now load the scatter and recovery image to sp flash tool as described .

Now just before clicking the download button , turn off the phone> detach the ph>click download button>again plug in the cable immediately .

After numerous times of "sp flash tool error 8100" finally this this trick works for me.

To save time I unplug and replug USB cable to the phone end , not the pc end .

I hope this will help few people out there who are getting 8100 error .

Recently I bought myself a Galaxy Nexus after owning a Nexus S for 1,5 year.

I never had issues with the Nexus S (even with JB), however this seems a different story on the GNX.

My issues:

- Youtube doesn't play videos and crashes

- Gallery crashes when looking at videos. I get a black screen when playing a video but it doesn't start to play, when I press back the system doesn't react, pressing home returns me to the home screen.

- Face unlock doesn't start it's process and I'm redirected to enter my PIN

Any ideas? I noticed the factory JB 4.1.1 image is released, maybe I should place a clean image on my GNX?

Thanks for all comments!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Are you currently on a stock or custom ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
I have this problem here many and many times too with a stock rom.. Yesterday I reinstalled the factory ROM 4.1.1 but the problem persists, I think it's a bug in this version because in 4.0.4 doesn't have this problems..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr.Paul:
I don't have this problem and I very much doubt many do. I suspect you may have a hardware problem. Probably faulty memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
I don't think is a problem of faulty memory, it is difficult to reproduce this bug, you must open a video in the gallery or on youtube, watch the video and pause, after a few minutes reopen a video and do that sometimes and you have the problem ..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
I've never had anything like this happen on jb.. .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superdx:
I don't have this problem - did you try deleting the Youtube app and reinstalling it?

It might be worth trying to do a total hardware reset if you have a couple hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
I've done it already, I've deleted the cache's app and the problem continues, it does not happen right the first time, occurs after about 10 times you watch a video and then watch again ..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xanadu.dm:
It's a new phone. It came with ICS 4.0.1 which went to the OTA upgrade path: 4.0.2, 4.0.4 and then 4.1.1. So completely stock.

I also notice that the camera app doesn't come up (the same problem which does occur when unlocking with face unlock).

Pictures from the gallery show up without problems.

What are the best steps to have a complete hardware reset? Flashing the stock JB 4.1.1 factory image via fastboot?

If it's hardware defect, is there a offline diagnostic tool I can run on my GNX?

I appreciate all replies!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
For me the only way to solve that is using the 4.0.4 stock ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knudsen81:
I dont have problems on my nexys with 4.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xanadu.dm:
Today I returned my Galaxy Nexus to the shop. I will get a new one as soon they're back on stock.

I returned to my Nexus S which has JB, unfortunately it seems JB is still not as stable as ICS. Had some Google Talk crashes today.

Never had a crash on my Nexus S on ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gab2012:
Edit: Nevermind I didn't read your last post completely.

Glad to see you're getting a new one :)

I'm also waiting for a replacement for mines (kept crashing randomly). It will arrive on thursday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
I think I figured out how to solve these bugs, here they stopped to occur after disabling facial recognition, use another way to unlock your phone and make sure that they stopped
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
Probably the people who reported not having the bug doesn't use face recognition, I think this is the reason for very few people reporting this bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flintdragon:
I've never had these issues and I used face recognition since the first day I got the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xanadu.dm:
Meanwhile I got a brand new Galaxy Nexus, however after one week of use the same problems returned!

I wonder if an app or something else is causing these problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rustid:
I have not had these issues, you probably have a faulty phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xanadu.dm:
It can't be that I have two times a faulty phone? First one was delivered with the Google ROM, the second one with the Samsung ROM which I changed immediately to the official yakyu ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
Turn off face recognition and test again..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] motopig:
I upgraded from yakju 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 via a manual OTA flash. Maps keeps running out of memory and crashes in the background, like several times daily. I have confirmed it is Maps crashing, because once I uninstalled it using TB the crashes are gone.

Given the choice again I would not upgrade.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] motopig:
Bump for more attention, and...

I still have this problem after upgrading Maps to 6.10. :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xanadu.dm:
At the moment my issues are gone since I disabled Face Unlock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
For me too!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RicardoSul:
Apparently the problem does not occur anymore after update to 4.1.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beatles420:
Running 4.1.2 with google now off (for battery reasons) and no maps issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gdap:
My biggest gripe on JB 4.1.1 stock, is that google NOW is slow to start up. I really wish it was a little more instantaeous. Also, I end up bringing it up from time to time in some games which can be annoying.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] neoslink1:
Okay, so my mouth has been watering over AOKP since it came out. I love the build, but I can't use it at my house due to its lack of Wifi Calling. I've tried pulling the apk from stock Touchwiz, but to no avail. I didn't expect that to work, but its all I could think of. Would it be possible to create a patch to flash on AOSP ROMs that would allow for wifi calling? I've seen it implemented in CM7 on the HTC Espresso, (a device where the last official HTC release was froyo) so I have a little hope. So I'd like to ask kindly, would someone please help me or work with me on a solution? I have google voice, but it doesnt support MMS, so I cant troll anyone with my meme app ;) I pretty much live in Deliverenceville so reception is a joke on any carrier :( Thanks in advance. I really appreciate any help.

While it is a nice guide there is one already and its a sticky

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D3VI0US:
In old guide on XDA you needed to unzip the main folder and unzip and unzip the image-takju-jro03c.zip file to to get the boot.img , userdata.img and so on and you flash everything manually

so my question is >> in the old guide when you use Fastboot flash userdata userdata.img << this will wipe everything on the sdcard so is this the case here ? because i can see that useing the command fastboot -w update image-takju-jro03c.zip can avoid erasing everything is that right?

and thanks of course for the great guide
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ale.landra91:
I never used this guide because is not "transparent", I mean, my passages are the one that Google suggest. That guide is good but there are lots of thing that are a plus and not only using Google factory image. This is the way to use them. The other guide is a plus for advanced users. When you type -w it erases your internal memory (data and apps, this is in theory, I always use stock ROM than I never wiped with fast boot, maybe copy your SD on PC to prevent damage) bye
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greeced:
Not quite sure how your guide is more transparent or for beginners than efrant's is...

I followed his numerous times with no issues.

Its one thing to provide an alternative guide for those who wish to use it, it's another to knock someone elses work..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prinzhernan:
What's the difference with enfant's guide because I've been using his for the longest time. Is the command update image-xxxxxxx.zip recommended by Google? It's much shorter than flashing all the files individually but I dunno.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ale.landra91:
Use intuition. Why Google should have done an extra zip to extract when they created the command fast boot update? Why complicate things when they are simple? If you exclude reboot commands you need only 3 commands with same effect! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Not sure what you mean by "not only using Google factory image". Everything I mention in that guide is from Google, except the driver (which is originally from Samsung, but repackaged by 1wayjonny).

The difference between this and my guide is that I have included ALL the steps to flash stock, from installing the drivers and downloading any needed files (the SDK and JDK are not needed by the way) to flashing your device. Additionally, as is stated in the first post of my thread, I have expanded all the steps and eliminated all scripts, so that people can see what is actually happening for the purposes of learning. For example, executing one command which actually flashes four images behind the scenes is not as valuable to learning as executing each command individually.

Included in the factory image is a script that flashes everything at once. Do you learn anything from it? Not really. There is no difference between using the fastboot update command to flash a bunch of images in a zip file, and flashing each image with the fastboot flash command. The difference is for instructional purposes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greeced:
Which I believe is better for beginners...

But what do I know... OH WAIT... I used to be one.

Bottomline, use the one you want... or are more comfortable with.

One thing to remember however... if you end up screwing your device up... efrants procedure will pinpoint exactly where you went wrong or what step it caused issues at.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ale.landra91:
simply they are different guide. My intention was porting my nexus s guide to galaxy nexus and not writing a poem. Few passages to use the images in the correct and simplest way. Then users choose to use your or mine with same results :) I never said that you are wrong, is only an alternative of lot of ways
