Just a little report to Wug and the developers. It can be made to root and unlock on a stock 4.2.2 as well. Just got mine today and it was preloaded. I didn't even have to do an ota update.

Thanks Wug.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] k5mitch:
Well I want to return my N10 after I finally got the boot loop issue fixed. It is now unlocked but not rooted would it be safe to use the toolkit to lock? Every time I start the toolkit it wants me to select a different build. I followed wugs directions about downloading the new_adb_and_fastboot.zip for 4.2.2 but ran into problems so I'm a little hesitant on using it to relock. Any thoughts?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] jsebol80:
GaleForce, I finally got mine to take.

Here's what I did:

Uninstalled WugFresh 1.6.2 completely, restarted my PC.

Downloaded and installed WugFresh1.6.2 again

Downloaded the .zip file supplied on WugFresh's website to overwrite the fastboot; ABD files.

Did another reboot

Then opened up 1.6.2 and did the driver unlock. This time upon plugging in my Nexus 10, I got the "do you want to enable ABD on this device" or something like that, clicked yes, and after that I was good to go.

I did option 1 for my driver install BTW. Hope this helped.

Re: [Toolkit] Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.6.2 [Updated 12/29/12] : Nexus 10 Thread

I finally got it into factory reset recovery by holding the power button and tapping the volume up button. If you are holding the tablet in portrait mode you are pushing the bottum of the volume rocker.

Hey im unlocked and rooted with custom rom, and want to set everything back to stock (gotta send tablet back to google)

im on 4.2.2

do i need to download/update the drivers to use the revert to stock and relock feature?

or do i need, or can i just flash a 4.2.1 rom, and then proceed normally to use this toolkit to revert back to completely stock?

thanks in advance

Please help me, wugfresh!

While in hospital recently, I thought it would be cool to upgrade my ROM to a newer NIGHTLY. Unfortunately, the drugs I was being fed intravenously coupled with my aging gray matter, I overlooked switching to USB debugging mode. The updated ROM & latest GAPPS loaded fine as did wiping data/cache functions...however, nothing since has worked in terms of getting my phone to reboot in any way. It still responds to simultaneous Vol Up/Vol Dn + Start Button & simultaneous Vol Dn + Start Button commands. The procedure you describe, above, does NOT work verbatim on my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Please advise what exactly I can do to get my phone back to some form of working condition. :eek:

NOTE: I am a double donater to you and have, I believe, the latest version of Galaxy Nexus Toolkit installed on my Win7 PC.

Thank you!

really a password on twrp? how can I continue to unlock/root process?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] 5BIGMDGUY8:
Re: Please help me, wugfresh!

WugFresh,

Good News, dude!!! I figured it out! W/help from other posts I pulled & reinstalled the battery, then simultaneously pressed Vol Up/Vol Dn + Start Buttons, I booted into recovery mode, then wiped data & caches, then used your Galaxy Nexus Toolkit (finally figured out how to get it to recognize my soft-bricked phone), then selected #36 as my PHONE model & then selected #9 ("Download, extract +flash google factory stock ROM") and followed all instructions for downloading '.tgz' or '.tar' file & copying it verbatim to the"put_google_factory_image_here" folder, & the two [Galaxy Nexus Toolkit & my Toro SGN phone] immediately recognized one another & the electronic handshakes occurred that allowed the Google Factory Stock ROM to be downloaded, extracted, & installed to my previously soft-bricked phone. During that process, one 'yes' checkpoint confirmed the action to completely erase data & partitions. Once all of the files were downloaded & installed, the phone booted into the newly minted OS and, voila, my phone now works good as new! :good:

Thank you!

used your program on my gnex when I had that with no issue, but with n10, after it gets unlocked and goes to temporay twrp to factory reset and all that, it ask for password so couldnt wipe..had to use advance utilities and launch cwm touch temporary to factory reset. then was able to use the root process...

was just a little frustrated shocked..at the time :) all is well now

Hey wug, is it normal that when you perform a backup for apps+data it keeps saying shared storage while backing up? Im on the screen of the backup and it's been a while since it doesn't change. Thanks.

Edit: Okay, I finished my backup, all I had to do is unplug the nexus 10... lmao.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Re: [Toolkit] Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.6.3 [Updated 02/24/13] : Nexus 10 Thread

If you unplugged it then you interrupted your backup and its probably corrupt. Mouse over the backup options and read the tooltips, you will see that a data/media backup is better for shared data.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 10 Android Development] lKBZl:
Is it normal that when I unplugged it, it said backup complete (and it said something like confirmed backup for apps and data)?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Yeah, my script is waiting for the process to finish. By pulling the plug it effectively terminates the process and therefore my program thinks its done and gives you the completed message. The reason it was taking forever is because shared data is all you pics/music/videos etc. Its a lot of stuff and the process is very slow, if you set it down and came back later it would have completed eventually. You are much better off not including shared data in your backup though and doing a data/media backup instead.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 10 Android Development] SayWhat10:
yeah its asking for password when try to unlock

*trying to fix now*
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Can you try updating the toolkit and trying again. Now the toolkit should grab the latest 2.4.2.0 TWRP - maybe that will work properly now. There is no reason I could see it asking for a password, it makes no sense.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 10 Android Development] SayWhat10:
i got it working

i did what the other guy suggested and went to advance tools to launch twrp temporarily again, but when it did, it asked for the password again (u can back out of the password option but it will fail trying to factory reset)

so i just manually went to the stock recovery (hitting power + up volume). then chose factory reset. it passed

im all good now. unlocked and rooted

thanks!! other than that lil hiccup its pretty straight forward and easy to use, just follow the easy prompts.

great program!!!
[Nexus 10 Android Development] lKBZl:
It didn't ask me for password and I tried it today with the last version of the toolkit. Thanks for the toolkit and for the video wug, it was very usefull.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
If you or anyone can reproduce that password screen, could you snap a picture or something and send it to me. I have never seen this, and I am really confused why thats coming up for some of you. There has to be a common denominator if it happens to some people and not others. It would be nice to know what the cause is. Cheers.

[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Thats good to hear. Thank qbking for the instructional video though, I didn't make that.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 10 Android Development] SayWhat10:
yeah im not sure about why either

but for reference, i used a brand new out the box nexus 10, made in the second batch (R32D serial number), and it was on 4.2.1

it just brings you to twrp, with a screen that says "enter password"

i tried to type 0000 lol like it is to pair things, but didnt work

plus i saw no way to like hit enter, for when you are done entering a password

if you back out, you can go all inside of twrp, but when you try to do stuff, like execute factory reset, it will just say failed

hope that helps a bit
[Nexus 10 Android Development] Wontfinishlast:
I just got my n10 yesterday. I was fiddling around with it and updated to 4.2.2 before I unlocked rooted. Went to use your toolkit (amazing work btw!) and also got the password screen at the TWRP screen. Idk what you need to know, so I'll just tell you everything I did since I got it. Updated to 4.2.2, downloaded your toolkit via goo, selected nexus 10 4.2.2 when prompted, enabled USB debugging, updated drivers using RAW drivers (I'm on Windows 8), followed all the directions step by step, and hit the password screen. Everything seemed to go fine up until that point.

This is on a fresh win8 installation. This is what I did.

Install your software.

Did the full driver installation..

Clicked unlock

it did its thing got to the unlock bootloader screen on n10 just fine...then when got to "booting into twrp temporary to factory reset is when it asked for password..I actually debated taking a picture but wanted to finish what I started..

so after trying it a couple times each time it asked for the password, frustration hit. so went looking more with software to see if can use different recovery.

so in prefrences switched the temp recovery to cwm touch. yet the unlock process still went to twrp.

so went to advance utilities and was able to launch cwm touch temporary using that.

factory reset in it.

went back to main screen of your software

clicked root..and was able to finish up the process..

sorry havent got on gchat...sick kids make life difficult :) but wanted to get little more in depth on my process and what os i was using

Will rooting only without unlocking will wipe my data ?

-------- it's yes .. rooting will unlock and wipe :(
[Nexus 10 Android Development] lKBZl:
If you use this toolkit it will unlock your bootloader, so yes, it will wipe your data. If you only want to root without unlock, use superboot.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Superboot relies on booting a modified boot.img with superuser, su binaries and a clever install script slipsteamed in, but in order to do use that you still need an unlocked bootloader. All root methods for these Nexus devices rely on an unlocked bootloader. That's why its best to just unlock it right away and not have to worry about data.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 10 Android Development] lKBZl:
Actually not Wug, before I used your toolkit, I had my Nexus 10 rooted via superboot. All you need to do is install the naked drivers and double click a .bat file. It will reboot flash some files and reboot. My bootloader was unlocked untill I used this toolkit.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Your bootloader was unlocked? You mean locked? Did it have the unlocked icon on the google screen.

From his thread:

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 10 Android Development] lKBZl:
Yea sorry, I meant locked, my bad. There are many people, if not all of them, that commented in that thread saying that they got it without unlocking their bootloader.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] WugFresh:
Sweet. That's cool. Wasn't aware you could fastboot boot unsigned boot.img on a locked N10 device - that goes against the locked policy from my knowledge. I am guessing it was a flaw in an older bootloader. I wonder if that would still work on the latest N10 bootloader. Thank you for the information.

Have you tried rebooting your pc after installing the driver, and is your nexus 10 on bootloader mode when you try to unlock it?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] krash_control:
I did this on my 64Bit Win 7 machine a few nights ago. Use the RAW drivers as the app recommends. If I were you, I'd remove the PDANet drivers, and follow the prompts/wizard to install the raw drivers. It has screen shots and as long as you read it carefully, it works really well. It even has a button at the bottom of one of the screens to copy the path for the drivers to your clipboard which I thought was simple, but REALLY cool and useful :)

Just follow the steps, it'll work ;)

Hello everyone and I apologize because I do not speak English but only Italian.

I translated with google traslator.

I used root toolkit to unlock the bootloader.

After you do this from the options visible on the device I rebooted.

I definitely wrong with the procedure.

Now the nexus remains the logo of x.

Moving in recovry mode is the symbol of the Android robot and then resets and returns to the screen with the x.

Now press the power button and volume - are entered in the Device information screen ... with the difference that in the robot it says downloading.

I think that with rool kit can correct the mistake that I did, but I could use a big help.

I had this same problem. Then I installed the pdanet drivers again (didn't uninstall them before reinstalling) following the instructions in the toolkit, rebooted, and it worked. If it shows up as Nexus 4 adb interface you have to use another drivers.

TWRP fails here too. What did you do to fix the problem? I cant seem to get anything to work!
[Nexus 10 Android Development] midgetzombiekiller:
This is what I have to do after the first twrp factory reset fails:

1. Properly and completely turn off your device.

2. Press and hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power keys until the device powers on. You should see an image of an Android icon lying on its back.

3. Press Volume Down twice until the screen says “Recovery mode.”

4. Press Power to restart into “Recovery mode.” You should see an image of an Android with a Red triangle after a few minutes.

5. Tap Volume Up key while hold and press Power button.

6. Use the volume keys to scroll to “wipe data/factory reset” and press Power to comfirm.

7. Use the volume keys to scroll to “Yes – erase all user data” and press Power to confirm.

8. Your device will reboot itself after the data wipe completed.
