AutoUpdate Available for Nexus 10 device module [PRO Users Only]

I had to buy a new laptop and whole new set of programs to make/compile the updates as I lost everything when my hard drive crashed and took out my pc. All this cost me £600 which I had to scrape together and why it took a few more days to get everything done. Updates should come thick and fast now but I have no money left. Im not begging for handouts but if you have ever found the Toolkit useful and want to give back you can send me anything at https://www.paypal.me/mskip. I wouldn’t be saying this unless it was critical and my family and me (and the Toolkit) will be very grateful for anything.

Changelog:

+Updated Toolkit base to 1.6.0. Updated app versions and improved functions

+Toolkit will automatically disable all server pings if they cause any trouble with downloads

+Added direct link to google download site in factory image downloads section

Hello

My tablet no longer starts under android. After the google logo, it goes off by itself. I have access to the FastBoot Mode and the recovry mode.

As android does not start, I can not enable USB debugging. Can you help me?

Thank you,

Here's my quirky problem... I was running my N10 for a few days now. With the toolkits help, I unlocked the bootloader. When it went to reboot into Android, it got stuck at the flashing "X" logo and stayed there for 10+ minutes. Rebooted and it did the same thing.

To fix I had to reboot into fastboot mode, selected stock recovery (device will reboot and you'll see the red !). Press power and volume up and let go, you'll get various recovery options. Select wipe data and confirm. It'll wipe, then reboot. Once that was done, I was able to successfully boot into Android and continue the process.

Seems like something quirky with the data being wiped once the bootloader is unlocked.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Hatman41:
Woot...that fixed it for me. Thanks alot. I am not rooted :)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] thcaddict:
Darn, looks like i missed the window to download the tookit. Ive been waiting 5 days to unlock and root this, but i am waiting for the toolkit. any idea of when it will be up for download again?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Hatman41:
He is still trying to fix the issue that some of us are having. He will put it back out when he confirms that it is fixed.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
I'm sure it'll be back soon. I think Mark wants to make sure that he's not breaking devices first... :) I'm not sure where the issue would be. Seems the commands are pretty much the same, right?

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

Mark - Something to check... Now that I'm back and unlocked, when I press 4 for the various root options, and then 4 to "do it all"... I get the following error:

cannot stat 'root\:' no such file or directory

Root directory is still there under the Galaxy Nexus 10 folder... Going to try them one by one to see if it works that way.

Option 3 works fine. Rooted, SuperSU installed and working fine.

oem unlock bug

The problem of the endless "X" mode after oem unlocking has happened to a HUGE percentage of people (including me) who have been manually unlocking and rooting their N10s the past few days (instead of waiting for your great toolkit). So the endless "X" probably has nothing to do with the toolkit. As far as I know, no one has figured out why it happens, and why it doesn't happen to everyone. It appears to be some sort of bug with the response to the oem unlock command. The 99% success workaround to this has been to manually do a factory-reset/wipe-data after rebooting into recovery, (even from the stock recovery). Flashing the whole stock image back will work, but for this problem it appears to be overkill.

Don't know if you can programmatically do a factory-reset/wipe-data after the oem unlock in the toolkit, or even if this only happens the first time you oem unlock. (You might subesquently oem lock and then oem unlock again for some reason).

Your work is much appreciated!
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
I've gone through the process one by one at this point... Rooted (via option #3), renamed recovery files, installed CWM... All those went fine. However - trying to install busybox via #7, once I've rebooted using insecure boot image and type "yes", the toolkit closes on me.

I'm running Windows 8 Pro x64.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mskip:
You are correct I think the safest way to root the Nexus 10 is going to be geting rid of the adb root method and preforming the recovery root method. I dont know if there is something wrong with the stock bootloader as performing a fastboot oem unlock really shouldnt give a bootloop. It looks like the wipe process from the unlock is screwing up the cache and a wipe via stock recovery (doesnt work with custom recovery) is the only way to fix it.

Just have to work out the correct procedure which is a bugger when I dont have the tablet infront of me.

MArk.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
If you need an additional tester, please feel free to PM me the info and I'll do what I can. I'm pretty much always in front of a computer (at home, work, etc.) and willing to spend some time sorting out the bugs. Until I get an actual ROM on the device, I can wipe and reload as much as needed. :)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mskip:
What a prat I am lol I deleted a "2" from a single routine which crashed the busybox install.

Download and overwrite *THIS* file and try the busybox procedure again.

NOONE ELSE DOWNLOAD IT PLEASE ITS A TEST FILE.

Mark.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mskip:
Can you pm your google talk email so we can continue on there, Makes life easier. Im talking to someone else aswell so im sure we can work out the best and safest procedure.

Mark.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
Hmmm... Downloaded, replaced the file... But still closing out on me after I type "yes" to continue once the device reboots with insecure boot image.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mskip:
UPDATE:

Ok well apparently something is up with 4.2 and the oem unlock will mostly lead to a bootloop. Im rewriting the root procedure to do everything in the right order so that this shouldnt happen and as soon as its been tested I will re-release the Toolkit. Its 2:13am now so I will work for another hour and then finish off tomorrow. Watch out tomorrow evening for a new version and I will post back as soon as I have more info.

ANYONE WHO EXPERIENCES THE BOOTLOOP PROBLEM. REBOOT BACK INTO FASTBOOT MODE, SELECT RECOVERY, HOLD POWER BUTTON DOWN AND THEN PRESS THE VOL BUTTON WITHIN A SECOND TO BRING UP THE RECOVERY OPTIONS, SELECT WIPE/FACTORY RESET AND WHEN THE DEVICE REBOOTS IT SHOULD BOOT UP FINE.

Mark.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
So this DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS and TESTSIGNING ON code will apparently make a "Test Mode" watermark appear on the desktop. My Windows 8 Pro is legit, from Technet/ActionPack... Here's what I found infowise on it:

The test mode watermark can appear if the test signing mode is started on the computer. This test mode may occur if an application whose drivers are not digitally signed by Microsoft is installed and still in the test phase.

Just a heads up... Can anyone confirm that the same thing happens doing this the other way as described in the FAQ?

---------- Post added at 08:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 AM ----------

Went back and disabled that code, rebooted and drivers/toolkit still works fine. I wanted to test it, so I tried removing the drivers via the toolkit and reboots, but it seems that they're still there.

The test mode watermark goes off once that goes is off. I'm thinking that maybe you can just run the DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS part, reboot and then be able to install the drivers, without the watermark, but have not tested that.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] y2whisper:
My theory (and i could be wrong) is that its best to restart the device back to android after unlocking the bootlader then go back and root. I combined both when I tried the procedure (via other methods here) and got the bootloops. put it back to locked and a factory image and then did it step by step without problems.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
That's where I've had my "bootloop" (or stuck at "X") twice now in testing with Mark... Unlocked the bootloader, started the device to go into Android and it stuck at the X. Went back to fastboot, stock recovery did a wipe and it booted OK and I was in and fine last night... While testing with Mark today, we went back to stock recovery (because I had flashed CWM), relocked, unlocked, forcing the wipe of data, tried to start and got stuck. He is efforting (and I'm testing) different scenarios to get it booting when that happens.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] jonno95:
Got stuck at the x after unlock

I got my nexus 10, installed 1 app from the market, (world news, so i could read while i ate breakfast). Then before i got to carried away with installing, i decided to oem unlock. I got stuck on the x. Since i was already messed up, i tried this tool and installed twrp. First i tried to do a backup but it failed with an error. Then i tried to factory reset, but i got an error, so then i tried to clear cash and dalvik, but got an error. Then i tried wiping data, this worked, then it let me do the others as well. Now i'm good.

My point --> i don't think it's the tool since i had the problem before i even found this tool (i googled it and found the original link on a korean site). This tool helped me get it back up... so thanks for the tool.

so possibly, if there was a way in the "unlock script" to boot into recovery (i used twrp, and the person before me used stock) and to a wipe data, then maybe that'll help. also, i forgot to mention that i did do the OTA before unlock.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] jerryp7:
Thanks. I'll wait.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mskip:
Good news is that I have gone through extensive scenarios with simontuffguy today and have worked out the best way to go for unlocking and for rooting. I am starting to program it all into the toolkit now so it should be finished and re-released 22nd mid day(ish).

Also the Nexus10 came back in the play store yesterday so I placed an order for the 32GB and was told 2-3weeks delivery. Received an email last night at 22:30 saying the tablet had been shipped out with ups and should be with me in 1-2days which was a bit of a welcome surprise. Once its here I will have a device to do more testing and fine tune the toolkit even more :)

Mark.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SimonTuffGuy:
Glad I could assist Mark. Hopefully we've caught most the obvious bugs. :)

I'll continue playing with what I have loaded now and let you know if I find anything else.

Can't wait to get mine tomorrow

Thanks for working out the kinks in the system before I went through this ;)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Alleycat68:
Ooh shiny!

Very nice!

Just unlocked / rooted quickly and easily.

I was able to backup everything prior to unlocking then restore afterwards following Mark's easy to follow instructions. I would advise you read through ALL the instructions and FAQ completely prior to altering your tab.

The only apps that would not restore were purchased apps...I assume to prevent "sharing" from your backup. I think the only thing I had to set up again was my email acct.

Windows 8 wouldn't let the driver install but Mark covers the "work around" in his FAQ.

Great job! Nice to see community support right away on a new device!
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] jerryp7:
Me too. I'm so excited I already loaded the toolbox and am just waiting to make sure I get the right version!

That is the Stock Recovery screen. The menu is hidden did you not read how to show it? When you get to the Stock Recovery screen with the Android, press and hold the Power button and then quickly press the Volume Up button. This whole process shouldnt take more than a second so you dont want to leave any time between holding the Power button and tapping on the Volume button. Once that is displayed you can preform a wipe data to fix the stuck boot screen.

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] fredphoesh:
Hmm, command tells me there is no such internal or external command as bcedit...

dang, i want to root and play!

im gonna try this:

Select Settings (right bar)/More PC Settings (at bottom)

Then go General/Advanced Startup/Restart Now/Troubleshoot/Advanced Options/Windows Startup Settings/Restart

Your PC starts up and you get to a win8 menu where you can choose to Disable driver signature enforcement or Enable low-resolution video mode or Enable safe mode etc... choose to disable driver signature. Then install driver using the Toolkit and windows will say, are you sure, say yep and do the deed.

USo yeah. Got my Nexus 10 today, charged it up to about 25%, ran the update, and started the one click process. Now I'm stuck in either a neverending bootup, or if I get to fastboot, it always says "downloading..." and doesn't let me select anything but restart it.

I've successfully rooted my Galaxy Nexus (two of them) without any issues with the original Toolkit. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Can't exactly pull the battery lol.

Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: I'm sort of panicking that I just bricked a 550$ device within an hour of receiving it..

Edit2: well I can get into fastboot but I can't get it to ever boot into the OS.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mskip:
Did you not read all the information in the Toolkit and all over this thread about how to fix the boot freeze? You should have seen information when you unlocked the bootloader..

Boot into fastboot mode and then goto stock recovery. Enable the menu by holding power button then pressing vol up quickly. Go down to wipe data and press power button. After it finishes press the power button to reboot.

Steps for Root

Hello,

I'm very new with non-sd slot device rooting coming from Nook Color.

Also with locked bootloaders.

I was wondering what I should do first in your amazing toolkit for root.

Backup, Unlock, Root

or Backup and just root.

Could you give me a step by step for using your toolkit? Thanks!
