PREPARATION STEP! download sgs kernel flasher from the market (must be rooted I believe) and do a kernel backup as this process changes your kernel.
SPRINT TAB INSTRUCTIONS THAT WORKEDFOR MANY SPRINT TAB OWNERS. IT MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU!
Ok here it is, Thank koushs for this product, cruiserbax for his awesome instructions and Benjamin Dobell for giving up Heimdall flashing utility and install instructions.
I NOR THE ANYONE LIST ABOVE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS NOT WORKING!!! OR ANY DAMAGE IT MAY DO TO YOUR TAB!!
To get the zip file containing the zimage download it from here. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SV6IKL1D
To flash the zimage you will need to use Heimdall which can be downloaded here. http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/ <--------click on the binaries link for 1.1.1
instruction are below.
Heimdall install instructions
1. Download Heimdall here http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
2. Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86) and install it. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...5E-6DE6-4D3A-A423-37BF0912DB84&displaylang=en <------only if you are using Microsoft widows
2. Unzip Heimdall and you should have several files in the folder called Heimdall.exe, Heimdall-Frontend.exe, QtCore4.dll, QtGui4.dll, Readme.txt and drivers folder containing zadig.exe
3. Put you tab into Download mode(while the tab is OFF hold Volume Down + Power Button). Hook the tab up to you PC and Run Zadig.exe to install the drivers.
4. From the menu chose Options -> List All Devices.
5. From the USB Device list chose "Samsung USB Composite DEvice".
6. Press "Install Driver", click "Yes" to the prompt and if you receive
a message about being unable to verify the publisher of the driver
click "Install this driver software anyway".
7. Done. This only needs to be done once.
ClockWorkMod Install Instructions
1. First root you tab (use one click root or z4root) then downloaded rom manager.
2. Unzip the flash_image_VZW_zimage.zip. It will have have two files flash_image and zimage. you only need to use the zimage file. Open Heimdall-Frontend.exe and browse to where you unzipped the zimage to and select it. Make sure the box infront of zimage is checked. Hit start and it should flash the zimage and reboot the tab.
when it reboots it will get stuck at the samsung screen long hold the power button to shut it off. boot into recovery (cwm) power button plus volume up button it will start backing up to do the fs conversion but it will fail at /data and /cache. it will leave you in recovery.
3. While still in recovery select factory reset/data wipe when finished also do a cache wipe.
4. select reboot system, if you let it try to boot it will loop/hang on the SAMSUNG logo, this is not an issue just hold power key until it powers off.
5. while off hold volume up + power until you see the SAMSUNG logo then release both keys! NOTE: if step 4 does not fully power off and reboots just keep holding the power button until the screen blanks again then let go and quickly hold down only volume up + power until you see the SAMSUNG logo.
6. once it boots back into recovery (cwm) it will start the same backup/conversion process again, this time it will finish and leave you in recovery.
7. select reboot system and wait for it to load the tab back to froyo. (it will be back to factory defaults with the activation screen again)
8. Your tab will still be rooted so install terminal emulator and run "mount" to verify that your partitions are ext4.
9. Power off then boot back into recovery with volume up + power, it will boot back into recovery (cwm)
10. Do a backup and reboot your tab.

Yes, I tried this and it works great but be aware that certain kernels seem to mess it up.
Which Kernel Seems To Work The Best?
@ lloydcabraham
Which kernel is the most stable?
I rooted my tab last night in preparation for the HC port, and I'm curious about whether CWM is necessary... seems everything needs to be flashed via Heimdal or Odin, so is the advantage to having CWM installed just the wipe capabilities? I'm used to my EVO, and flashing/rooting/modding which is obviously different, I just don't understand what the differences are, I guess. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE STEP BY STEP! Simpletons like me find them EXTREMELY useful!
Great work, and thanks again!

Somewhat Offtopic:
Chances are the honeycomb port will come to GSM Devices First, We can only hope that it comes to Sprint and Verizon devices.
I believe the build being worked on right now in here is based on a cdma device...
Not off topic at all. THE ONLY HC port is currently being built by spacemoose (reading more than one thread on one website helps) and that wasn't the focus of my question. Please read before you quote/insinuate. Don't wanna be tagged with the troll label...

Clockworkmod has many advantages if you flash different roms, or say wanted to backup your current sprint rom & settings before testing Honeycomb Port.
As far as Honeycomb Port goes,
Again Chances are Honeycomb will port to Gsm Devices First,
Honeycomb is still Closed Code.
I said somewhat off topic, which it was, considering the thread is titled Clockworkmod.
Get your facts straight.

I like Bauxite but you will get a flaky camera (Sometimes won't initialize without reboot) and seems to mess up CWM (Although redoing these steps fixes it) but I do love running @ 1.4 super stable!

3/26/11 #2:...Second... The "dirty" port will be for CDMA devices, but as soon as the CDMA version is released I'll look into getting a GSM version out asap. Shouldn't be hard. Instead of using my own kernel for this one, I'm using a modified version of Boushh's kernel and can probably hack together a suitable kernel for other devices as well. My own kernel for the larger project is still in fluctuation as I have to make changes to suit the build on a regular basis, but when I finalize that kernel I'll release it as an update and it will get a repo of it's own.

Re-read it one more time...
Really
I still stand by my message.
It's also apparent you didn't go back to page 1 otherwise you would have known I acknowledged spacemoose1 Honeycomb Port.
Despite someone working on Honeycomb port for Sprint / CDMA devices.
Chances are someone else is working on it for GSM, as with damn near anything, GSM devices will most likely get it first,
KEYWORD: most likely, and if you read the previous post - keyword is chances are
Bottom line is who cares who gets it first.
I'm well aware of most developments going on XDA
can u guys just drop it already!
Ok im stuck I followed steps but I am stuck at the samsung screen won't boot into recovery I don't know what I did wrong... I need help I have it stuck! (sigh) uSING hEIMDALL It isn't specific on which box I should use the zimage in which box using heimdall... I used it in the recovery under other made sure the box was checked. It ran through backups 2 times then looked like it was launching into recovery cwr 3.0 but when I picked it up it turned off when I turned on all I get is the samsung logo FOREVER... I have tried using heimdall again and tried to use it under FACTORYFS but same result. Please help. All I have now is a Huge Expensive Paper Weight. HELP
*** Ok after further review *SIGH* I understand I probably should have studied the damn thing better there is an option for zImage there... So how bad did I mess this thing up and is there a way to UnDue what I have Done?
Update-
So I was able to flash the Zimage and get to recovery but when I tried to wipe/data/cache and load K-lean rom I got this ---->http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/8655/imag0061y.jpg
I was also able to boot in but couldn't launch because every one of the launchers would fc.
I will attempt another ROM but I fear it is bricked.... I don't give up easily so any help would be awesome.
Thanks in advance.
Damn,
Can you boot into recovery at all? Ifa ll fails, put your Tablet in downloader mode, and flash the file below, follow the instructions in the zip file, if you have done some of the steps skip them, however read very carefully.

Really don't know what to say about the error message, My tab was messed up with errors like can't mount....., some other stuff, I had to send mine in to get replaced, never would go past the samsung logo. At the time the only thing Sprint users had was the Stock DJ30 With Modem.
Now we have no modem.

Before I tried that I loaded the Honeycomb ROM well it isn't but the Khasmek's AOSP beta 1 and it worked everything working but the real question is what to do now... If I reboot does it load agian? Should I use Rom manager and run a recovery Backup? what would you advise?
****Update
So after getting everything setup I tried to do a boot to recovery through Rom Manager and low and behold back to dreaded SAMSUNG screen with NUTIN happening. Will try your steps next
****Update
After following steps and flashing image with odin... I was able to boot up fine... Downside---> My Verizon tab is now a Sprint Tab ... I need to find the .tar for VZW anyone? ANYONE? *SIGH*

Hey,
I recently bought this phone Huawei U8500, and I had a long search on the net where can I get a working recovery, finally I found a modified clockworkmod recovery.
It seems that this phone is highly unpopular.
I just wanted to share my finding.
Here you can download this modified version: Download
Steps to install recovery:
1. Download the clockworkmod
2. Unrar it somewhere on your computer
3. Turn off your phone
4. Press & Hold volume down key + call end (red) key and then press power key.
5. Launch the .bat file on your computer + connect your phone via USB
6. When it's finished, take out the battery and wait 5 seconds before putting it back in
7. Then you can access the recovery by holding volume up key + call(green) key
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One thing I can recommend If your phones android build version doesn't end with "712", I suggest you to update it to the beta release, you'll have more functional dual-touch.
Here is the beta froyo update: Download
To install it:
1. Unrar it to your computer, and find a folder named "dload" with the biggest size.
2. Copy that "dload" filder to root of your SD card
3. turn off phone
4. Hold volume up key + end call (red) key and the press power key. Wait for it to load, it will say something like "Updating system" Wait for it to finish, if it says fail, just try again
5. After it says "Update complete" or "Update successful" just restart your phone and you'll have the new beta firmware.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Russian site I found some unofficial ROM's too.
I haven't tried them yes but if someone is willing here you can download them:
Firmware 2.2 29.01.2011 by Pavlo78
u8500_mao_rls7b2
u8500_mao_rls7++by_march_2
u8500_mao_rls8_by_march
u8500_mao_rls8_by_march
To install one of these ROM's do the following:
1. Copy the ZIP file on root of your SD card, the ZIP file, not RAR.
2. Boot up your phone in recovery mode (by holding volume up key + call(green) key)
3. With your optical trackpad select "Install zip from sd card"
4. From the list choose your ZIP file
5. And then just wait till the installation is complete and then just restart the phone!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I highly recommend you to back up the original firmware before installing new ROM's
You can do that in recovery mode, just click on nandroid and follow the on screen instructions it will backup your current firmware + your currently installed apps.
I'm not responsible for bricking your phone, if something doesn't go well. By doing the things I wrote, you may void your phones warranty.
Don't forget to thank me
Kind regards

10x a lot, monirr, I waz searchin this stock rom ... & do u kno if itz upgradeable 2 Android 2.3.4 or any1 upgraded?
hey im thinking bout buying this phone as i live in bangladesh... can anyone confirm me about the froyo upgrade does it work???
I did download the beta firmware.
And updated the phone's firmware a few minutes ago.
I have the dual touch now, yay (and a little better keyboard).
Many thanks from a Droid noob.
This should be enough for all your stock rom needs.
http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Huawei_Firmware_U8500
BTW: If you install the clockwordmod, you will lose the GP stock bootup screen (not the boot animation). So if you are going to claim warranty make sure you flash the GP firmware before you go to the GP centre.
Someone was asking how this phone is...the only issue I have is knowing that I'll never have flash on this thanks to the arm6 processor.

There is a thread in the port section of the Cyanogenmod forum. It started with a lame question but later a lot was discussed about gingerbread 2.3.4. There is a Chinese developer (Slax) who has been working on the rom. However, this rom does have a few issues.
I don't know Chinese and google translate is incomprehensible. You should be able to find all the links needed in the cyanogenmod forum.
here is the link.
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/21467-huawei-u8500/
for froyo try trial and error with all the official roms. if you don't like one change it. eventually you will find one that meets your need.

Hello XCoder, and all!

i try lot of drivers (original U8500, Original Android, and the SDK's driver too) and still "unknown Andoid device"
If i get out battery, take back, and standard Power On, the XP recognize the "Android Composite ADB" device, and bind the SD card, and CDROM image, and works perfectly.
but i can't upgrade in Standard Mode
can anyone have an idea, how i can access the Droid under Recovery Mode?
and all links of huaweidevice.com are unavailable

Thanks, I'm trying to convince my GF to get the sgs2, she's on USCC. This will come in handy.
I actually put together a more streamlined package on the other thread. If someone could test it out, that would help others.
Inspired by the above enthusiasm, I put together a quick package to simplify rooting for your phone (if I had a phone to use, I could put together something even simpler)
Keep in mind, I'm doing this all "blind" since I don't have a phone. This procedure might not work, but should be pretty close to working. With some feedback I can fix it up quickly.
Thanks - chris41g for EK02+CWM zImage, themac79 for FB14 zImage, Margey for testing and helping work out root procedure
1) download the USCC rooting package [USCCROOT-sfx.exe]
2) extract the files
USCCROOT-sfx.exe is a 7zip self-extractor that contains all the files you'll need. Just double-click in windows and specify where you want to extract, we'll assume C:\
3) connect phone to PC
make sure USB drivers are installed
enable USB debugging (menu->settings->applications->development)
4) install E4GT EK02 kernel+CWM using ODIN OneClick
double-click on C:\USCCROOT\e4gtauto-sfx.exe
double-click on C:\USCCROOT\SPH-D710.EK02_KERNEL_CWM-OneClick.exe (thanks chris41g for zImage)
E4GTAUTO: select Option E (Extra Options), then Option H (Reboot to ODIN Download Mode), press any key to continue, then select Option J (Previous Menu)
ODIN-OC: Wait until yellow COM port shows up in ODIN OneClick window
ODIN-OC: Press Start on the ODIN OneClick screen
Phone will reboot when done
ODIN-OC: Close the ODIN OneClick window
5) Install persistent root
E4GTAUTO: select Option A (Install Root)
E4GTAUTO: when done, press any key to reboot, then any key to continue
6) install USCC FB14 kernel using ODIN OneClick
double-click on C:\USCCROOT\SCH-R760.FB14_KERNEL-OneClick.exe (thanks themac79 for zImage)
E4GTAUTO: select Option E (Extra Options), then Option H (Reboot to ODIN Download Mode), press any key to continue

ODIN-OC: Press Start on the ODIN OneClick screen
Phone will reboot when done
ODIN-OC: Close the ODIN OneClick window
7) you are done
E4GTAUTO: select Option K (Exit)
Ha ha even better man. Now I just need to figure out how to pull the stock odin information off so we can start at least creating odin roms. Need a debloated one soon. I will play with it more in the morning.

This process works like a charm to root the phone. How would I unroot if needed?
anyone working on an ICS rom for the US Cellular version? Shouldn't be too hard since it's basically identical to our phone. The source was released a few days ago I believe.

1. The root for USCC samsung gs2 work like a champ. (hat's off to everyone who made this happen so quick).
2. My only problem is that i want clockworkmod to do a rom backup but having problems loading it in. I downloaded the app and flashed and reboot to recovery and nothing.
Do we have a release for this and if not can I use a similar .tar to do so. I just don't want to brick my phone.
thanks
Phone:
Android Version: 2.3.6
Build number gingerbreadad.fb14
And again the new release of the samsung gs2 for USCC
Edit:
Second time's a charm I guess..
I followed the directions. Everything went well. However, after downloading superuser I don't have and can't install the binary. So it seemd that I don't have root.
I'm a little stuck. Anybody have any tips?
Thanks!

Hi All,
I'm getting ready to replace my USCC Mez with something new.
I'm torn between the Galaxy S II and the Aviator.
My main concern with either is the availability of custom ROMs and extensive development.
Which phone would be better in your opinion?
Are there any custom ROMs for either phone yet?
My searching has turned up a few discussions, but no real useful info.
Thanks in advance,

now i just want to find a way to backup my stock rom then flash different roms anyone have any idea how?
cwm doesnt work with this phone
Is there any information on how to backup your current rom or flash back to stock rom? I'm really paranoid and I'm trying to be as cautious as possible about this so I don't brick my phone, also so I have a backup plan in case something goes wrong and I have to send it in or something.
Thanks

...What? This is for the U.S. Cellular Galaxy S II, which is identical to the Sprint Epic 4G Touch, just without the 4G radio. This rooting method isn't for the E4GT...

As I wrote the guide I realized the files, scripts, and images are scattered through multiple threads, which makes finding what you need difficult, even from a main thread (the guide for example). This was compounded even more when I was writing the CM9 Install Guide for the CyanogenMod Wiki and listed the commands themselves, it became huge, intimidating, and looks extremely daunting, I can only imagine what a new flasher must think seeing it! And and so I decided perhaps I can fix this, and with that I present to you...
The A100 Flashing Toolkit!
What is it?
A single zip file that, when unzipped, contains EVERYTHING you need, ADB, fastboot, scripts, CWM recovery image, everything you need to take your stock ICS A100 through rooting, unlocking the bootloader, and flashing CWM recovery (twrp coming soon)!
How is it used?
Its a set of 6 PC scripts, 3 for windows users (.bat) and 3 for linux users (.sh). Run in order from the same folder, and you can just click and run, reboot, click and run, reboot, click and run, install custom rom, done!
You MUST already be on ICS! This is not for HC, if you are on HC update to ICS FIRST!
Instructions
Make sure you are on ICS! Read the bold red letters above! You have been warned! You should already have installed the Acer USB drivers for ADB to work.
Ok, now you're on ICS....right?
Download and unzip the file to whatever folder you can remember, for example c:\acer or ~/acer.
Open your file manager of choice and browse on over to where you unzipped the files, and get ready.
Windows
Right click on A100-root-win.bat and select Run as Adminitrator.
Once that is finished, let your tablet reboot.
Once it's rebooted, right click on A100-unlock-win.bat and select Run as Administrator.
Once this finishes, let the tablet reboot again (the script will tell you what's happening)
Once it's rebooted, right click on A100-recovery-win.bat and select Run as Administrator.
Allow it to finish, it'll reboot a couple times.
Half the time it reboots into recovery, other reboots into system, not sure why it happens.
If it boots into recovery, go ahead and make a full backup, might as well.
If it boots into system, reboot into recovery and make a full backup, might as well.
At this point, you can now wipe and install a custom ROM, see the A100 Guide in General for ROMs and instructions on this.
Linux
Execute A100-root-linux.sh and allow it to run.
Once that is finished, allow tablet to reboot.
Exectute A100-unlock-linux.sh and allow it to run.
Let the tablet reboot
Execute A100-recovery-linux.sh and allow it to run.
It'll either reboot into recovery, or system, it does one or the other for some reason.
If rebooted into recovery, make a full backup.
If rebooted into system, reboot into recovery and make a full backup.
Wipe and install a new custom ROM, see the A100 Guide in General for ROMs and instructions on this.
How to boot into recovery
There's a few ways, 1 way is an app like quick boot, you can use adb by typing adb reboot recovery or you can do it manually.
Power off the tablet.
Press and hold the volume - button, closest to power and lock switch.
Holding volume - press and hold Power.
Hold until the screen says Booting recovery kernel then let go.
You should be in recovery, either CWM, TWRP, or stock, whatever you have installed.
As always I am open to suggestions, advice, or reports! Feel free to post up or PM me with any issues, questions, bugs, or ideas!
Download
A100 Flash Toolkit 1.1 7-16-12
Now featuring the correct bootloader!
Thanks to smokku for pointing this out.
Who do we thank for this package?
ZeroNull: Alot of the scripting is based on his work, and borrows his ADB and fastboot executables.
ptesmoke: Uses his CWM recovery.img file
CyanogenMod Iconia Team: For allowing me the chance to write for the Wiki, and realizing this NEEDED to be done.
Anyone else I'm forgetting, I'm sorry I will add you as soon as I remember (feel free to drop me a note!)
Sounds great, many thanks.
Thanks for all you hard work and patience.
a100 flash program
After several hours trying, having trouble with some of the batch files. Appears some file names called in .bat different than actual file names, also had to invoke adb from Command prompt window, wouldn't work from windows file manager. Followed instructions but process is breaking down in second batch file. After correcting file names, batch file runs but recovery.img is failing. Need help figuring this out.

Oh wow OK I'll take a look I must have mixed everything up. My desktop is littered with files from all these projects. I'm sorry about that I should have double checked everything before I uploaded it. If the called files are different then the scripts it must be the old version mixed with new scripts or something. I should have it squared away sometime tonight/tomorrow morning.
Edit: I'm assuming by saying command prompt you use windows, the a100-root-win.bat file looks fine, was this one giving any issues?
I'm checking the second and third now for whatever is going on.

You have to be FAST when it gets there, it times out in like half a second it seems.
When you run it, have the tab in your hand, fingers on volume - and volume + (volume - is next to the lock switch). As soon as you see the screen change, hit volume - then volume +. It takes a few tries usually. It'll just sit there until you reboot afterwards.
Hi, I was wondering, since I just rooted yesterday (got this tab last friday) should I skip the script for rooting and simply run the other two or do I have to run the root script anyways? by the way Im having some real weak reception from this tablet, like 2 bars only and thats when standing about 5 feet from the router, Im willing to follow this procedure in order to try one of the custom roms to see if the wifi weak signal goes away (Ive tried most of the things there are to attemp to fix this, including messing around with my router) do you know if any one has successfully fixed this with a custom rom? if so which one? thanks in advance and sorry for (kinda) hiijacking the thread.

Congrats on the purchase and welcome! You can skip over rooting if you already have rooted ICS. Not HC.
The weak wifi is pretty common, mine is weaker then any other devices I have, usually by a bar or 2. Custom roms won't fix it, I think they just have the power turned down on it. Its also possible there is a bad connection to the antenna internally. If you're very unhappy stop Modding now and return to stock and exchange for another unit or brand.
Any other questions feel free to ask.

thanks for your fast reply, I was contemplating the idea of flashing some custom rom as a last resort before either opening up the tab's case to check for myself that everything was "wired right" as Im not too happy with the idea of sending this off to acer's as I live in the Dominican Republic and I'd hate to pay the overpriced shipping fee if it is something that I can fix by myself, but on the other hand I might as well break something new instead of fixing the wifi anthena, so I guess I'll have to claim the warranty and hope the wont send me another faulty unit (I've read somewhere some people had issues with the replacement units). Such a great little device cursed with bad QA. anyways, if I hard reset the tab it'll be back to stock right? (as of now the tab is running stock os with root access and the modified wpa_wifi apliance to gain access to adhoc networks) Thanks

I'm not sure, but I don't think resetting these puts them back to 100% if rooted, the root stays since it sits in /system. You'll have to manually remove SU then reset to get rid of the root, I think. Other option is restore through the update.zip method which should wipe /system. You could try a hard reset and see if it removes SU or not, it might.

Not quite clear on what you're asking, but as far as I know it should work on any version bootloader unless they changed it on some update, which wouldn't surprise me.
What is the whole message, and when is it occuring?
I have the latest ICS version availble thru OTA.
Or i´m not being fast enough?
Already tried a million times the Volume - and Volume +.
Guetting this message:
"Bootloader V0.03.11-ICS Starting fastboot usb download protocol"
Should get the unlocked mode right?

Ok if you don't get the new screen with two icons, then it isn't unlocking yet. It seems the script is hanging before passing the next step.
When it gets to that screen again, type
fastboot oem unlock
as soon as you hit enter, get ready for that volume down then up, so maybe have it in your lap with your fingers on the volume rocker.
I'll look at the script again to see why it's hanging, or if it isn't hanging, why it's shooting past that point without waiting.
Forgot to say i´m using the windows version.
Thanks

The issue is that you included the A100 bootloader in the archive with a script to write it.
A100 bootloader (version 0.03.11-ICS) is not unlockable.
You need to write A200 bootloader (version 0.03.06-ICS) to your device, to have the unlocking option.
You know you have unlockable bootloader when you see green ACER logo in the bottom-right side of the screen instead white one in the center.
The script and blob you included is used to restore the original A100 (not unlockable) bootloader.

It's just labeled a100, it isn't the actual a100 blob. But go ahead and use that link until I get the chance to go back through it, I'm obviously messing it all up somewhere, I may have used the a100 blob and gotten it mixed up with the a200 blob when I was renaming and shifting things around. I'll pull the download for now until I get the chance to get it all sorted out, sorry guys.
Edit OK its back up with the proper boot loader for unlocking. I can't believe I did that. Huge thanks to smokku for pointing that out!
No worries.
And yeah, you have to be quick when it asks to toggle unlock, like half a second quick.
Hello guys!
This thread will be an expensive everything for the Galaxy Attain since it doesn't have it's forum so I'm going to make everything here.

-After the computer recognizes it open zadig.exe
-Click on Options and click on List All Devices
-Go to the List and mow you should see "Samsung USB Composite Device" on the list.
-Click on Install Drivers
-Done.
Step 4. Attain Back to Life / Heimdall Suite
-Go back to Heimdall Folder and open heimdall-fronted
-Click on Browse and look for the AttainFix.tar.gz

I need help
I have two Attains. 1 is rooted and screwed. It says for "baseband: Unknown". Samsung simple upgrade doesn't recognize it and when I put it into recovery/download mode it say "ODIN" at the top. It won't come out of airplane mode. It has been rooted by the previous owner. I am trying to return it to it previous glory. I want to start fresh. The other is untouched. The factory ROM is still intact and the phone is fresh. How do I copy the factory data and restore the screwed phone.
Please, I am a noobi so let's play nice. I have rooted my admires previously. Both of them are fine. One I even updated and rooted with odin.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx in advance

Hi,
I require advice as to how i should proceed with my recent purchase blunder.
Background: I required a cell since my current one started acting up with frequent call drops and shut downs. I scoured my local craiglist and got a used Galaxy Nexus for ~$ 100. The guy said it wasn't rooted, and so i proceeded to purchase, but only realised now that the cell is infact rooted, with ClockworkMod (not well versed with droid) and some functions / options do not work as intended. I want to unroot it and i tried to follow this guide, but it gets stuck at
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
saying waiting for device.
Not sure what to do as i'm fine even if i have to stay rooted, but i want the damn thing to work properly.
Also, if anyone can recommend how i go about installing ROM's
Regards,
Probably drivers. Just manually boot into bootloader.. And then flash the factory image.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Fastboot reboot-bootloader command will only work if you are already in the bootloader mode anyways...
As @mrgnex said, just do it manually, or use adb commands to boot into bootloader where THEN you use fastboot command.
To manually get into bootloader/fastboot mode; power down, then hold power button and volume up AND down all at same time for few seconds, it'll vibrate and you'll be in the bootloader mode where u can issue the fastboot commands.
Ok. I tried to put the .tgz file onto the cell and tried to install the file from there which is ~250mb. But when i try to select installing from s/d card, it does not show up the file there. I am most cretain i'm doing something wrong, and so would like to know what it is ? Any other guide that could be a little easy to follow ??
You don't actually move the factory images onto your phone.
One of the sticky threads here is called "return to stock". That should guide you in the right direction.

it's great that you're learning to do this Droid life has a good howto, just google "droidlife how to root galaxy nexus"
if worse comes to worse you can use this toolkit that does it for you, it's called wugfresh google "wugfresh nexus toolkit"
If you want to install ROMs you download the zip right on your device (make sure you get a ROM zip file AND a gapps zip file. They are linked in pretty much every OP for ROMs)
Downloading a ROM zip directly from/on device is easiest because then you do not have to transfer the file(s) over to your device in order to "flash"(aka install). Then all you do is go into recovery mode. Then go to install, then choose your ROM zip file. After that installs, then install gapps file the same way, always install gapps zip AFTER the rom zip.
If you use TWRP as your custom recovery you can "queue" your zip installs(choose rom zip and then you can choose to add another zip file and it will flash them both for ya)
And usually it is recommend to do a factory reset from recovery before you reboot into system. (Make sure to not wipe ALL /data...choose factory reset...wiping ALL /data will wipe /sdcard contents as well)
This all might seem foreign and difficult at first, but once you've done it once or twice(or more... you might become what we call a "crack flasher"-one who is constant changing ROM and kernel and setups lol, that's when it gets REALLY fun) so do not get discouraged. Especially if you don't understand the terminology we all use, you will become familiar with it quickly. And remember, Google is your best friend, almost any questions you might have will yield MANY helpful results when you put in a Google search, highly recommend that if using Google for trying to get useful info to put things like "how to install custom recovery "Galaxy Nexus" xda" to get the best info possible )
And do not be afraid to ask us either if you feel lost. It's easier to prevent an issue than to fix it(though fixing a borled Gnex is fairly easy with all the tools available here and elsewhere)
As for going back completely to stock, as mentioned above, to do that you aren't putting any files onto your device itself. You download them to PC(I use my laptop) and install from there using fastboot. When you download the factory img that is for your specific device and unzip it (I believe they still come compressed... If not ignore that part sorry!) You will see inside there is a script called "flash-all.sh" OR if using windows use the "flash-all.exe" that will automate the fastboot commands needed for a full factory stock restore of the device.
I could link you to posts containing useful how-tos and info and such, but right now I'm viewing forum via Tapatalk app on my device and really gonna be lazy and just say look at the "Sticky posts" in General, Q&A, and Development sections, those are most likely what I would link to you here.
After reading through some of those, if you need clarification of steps taken or something, come on back and let us know.

Maybe on contract for that price yes.
But for $100 no contract, that's not bad for a Gnex.. considering I paid ~400 just over 1.5yrs ago lol. And a highly developed device at that.
MAYBE could have found another device for a little bit more in the 150-200 range that was newer. But 100aint bad for a gnex
