Problem with phone and Galaxy Nexus Toolkit

i was running the Android Revolution HD Rom and it was great, and i saw that the AOKP had an update of the rom with the 4.0.4 build so i downloaded that and flash it but since then my phone its stuck on the Google Screen.
I can acces the recovery mode and all, but i dont have a rom on the sdcard to flash, and when i go to the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit im having trouble cause it says, this application has failed to start becauser AdbWinApi.dll was not found. Re-Installing the application may fix this problem, but heres the thing i can acces the aplication and i can do certain things with it, but if i go to the extract and flash google factory stock rom the aplication runs the setup but my phone doesnt do anything i put it on fastboot and nothing. other thing im trying to do is push a rom to the phone but when i do that the aplication says no device found.
I dont know that to do guys can anyone help me please?
i just got this phone two days ago and i havent use it much, its frustrating =-/

Don't use the tool kit. Set up adb and fastboot on your computer and do it manually. There are many guides on how to do that.

Check my sig.
It'll get you ADB.
And you can push a .zip to your sd card as well.
Details outlined in post 3 of my sig under the "FAQ- Panic" section.

Did you wipe data, cache and Dalvik when flashing AOKP? I hope you did because switching ROMs and not doing that can cause these sypmtoms. Try to go into recovery and wipe those... Your device might just startup fine (although you did a lot since then that might prevent that from happening)...

Thanks for your help guys i did manage to make my phone work, put the 4.0.4 directly from google but it was kind of laggy in some areas so i went back to 4.0.2 and its running great

Rooting and unlocking 4.0.4 questions. Vzw

Hello all. I'm pretty knowledgeable about rooting and stuff but I'm now on my 2nd replacement due to the one way audio issue. On my first replacement I tried rooting and unlocking 4.0.4 using adb but ran into a issue.
Upon rebooting after using cwm I would lose cwm. I tried deleting the file in the instructions but the file wasn't there. The worst part was I had flashed a jb rom and ended up getting a good brick because my cwm failed restoring my nandroid. After trying to reboot, cwm was gone. Ended up having to use Odin and refusing the update to 4.0.4 and used the tool kit with out fail.
On this replacement I already accepted the update so I'm hoping there's a work around to keep cwm from deleting itself. Or if the tool kit has been updated to work with 4.0.4? Thanks.

I tried that but that's when cwm got erased and the file wasn't there to be deleted. I figured it out though. Mod please close

[Q] I tried to install a rom, stuck on boot animation, bootloader crashes

I decided to install Cyanogen Mod on my Nexus. I already rooted it and downloaded rom manager + titanium back-up. I watched a tutorial on how to download and install roms using rom manager and everything seemed to go as planned and Cyanogen 9 was installed. The phone automatically rebooted and the boot animation the Cyanogen started. But after a half hour I realized it was stuck. So I tried to go into recovery mode to restore my backup (of the stock) but when I went there, the phone automatically turn off. It's not when I click, it's just after a certain period. It even turned off while restoring. To make things worse, when I turn it on now, it's stuck on the Google logo with the unlocked slot at the bottom. I hope you guys can help me because I'm starting to freak out.
Addidional info:

I did not delete evreything when I flashed
GSM version
rom was downloaded from rom manager
I backed up my stock rom
I did google but everything leads to bootloader which is broken
Yes I'm a noob

Where can I find this option and what does it do exactly? I have the Nexus Toolkit too, should I do anything there?

1.Don't panic
2. Try to go on bootloader then reset factory or fastboot then from pc flash recovery
3. Try to get back recovery then factory reset and flash backup

OP, here. Learn before you do some damage with tools you don't understand.

I mean, it's the easiest thing to fix damnit if you cared to learn in the first place...

I wouldn't recommend Odin to beginners. OP is better off with the fastboot guide mentioned by bk201doesntexist.

When I was a noob, Odin was the thing that save my life... a while back of course

was it a nexus? maybe/probably not, but if it was, you should have used fastboot. it's officially supported by GOOGLE. if you want to flash a factory image, they tell you to use fastboot. why would we use anything else? a leak? that the community barely really knows anything about?
i'd rather use Heimdall!! (not sure i9250 is supported though.)

[Q] Galaxy note 2 rom backup problem

Hey all, this is my first thread in this forum! :good:
I'm new to roms and rom flashing, so be easy on me. I have a rooted note 2 (international version) with official samsung 4.1.2, and i'm getting prepared from now for the highly anticipated 4.3 update. I've been reading on forums on how to flash roms, and most of them say that i need to backup my current rom to avoid potential bricks, and they recommend using clockworkmod to backup. I tried it once but after the progress screen in recovrey mode, i ended up with an error.
My question is that is there a way to backup my rom directly to my PC? or even to my memory card? step by step instructions are most welcome since i'm not really familiar yet with advanced rom issues.
Thanks!

Hey welcome to the dark side.
You should check out mskips toolkit it is an all in one programme for the Pc that let's you root, and back up your phone.

Screwed up, help!

SOLVED! Wug's toolkit ftw!
Boy did I screw this one up! Picked up a wifi 2013 Nexus 7 tonight. Rooted and unlocked it. Went to do a factory reset in twrp and ended up deleting everything. When I try to boot back up twrp tells me that there is no os. Are the stock files around and instructions on how to de-F my device? Thanks for any help!

you can use a factory image: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

You can also push a ROM.zip to the nexus using ADB and then flash it. You may want to include a supersu.zip or find a prerooted 4.3 ROM like carbon. You may end up liking carbon so much you'd never leave.
Edit... You may need to push some gapps too. Banks or the the new PA.
Maybe easier to find the prerooted zip that @scrosler posted awhile back. It's the JSS15R or whatever.
Just some options for you

I need to get back to stock rooted and make a back up. Such a newb move not doing that to begin with! I can boot in to recovery so I'll have to read / watch on how to fix from here.

I'm having trouble finding instructions on what to do. Any links would help! I've scoured youtube but nothing is really great step by step stuff. Thanks!

Ok, I have the stock rooted JSS15R zip and again, I'm having trouble finding out how to flash it on my no os device. I'm in the bootloader mode and see the ADB sidelide but nothing happens. And advice would be great, I've been working on this for hours and am sick of it!

Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but there's a step by step guide right here on XDA in the N7 General section.
Again, someone who's an expert can correct me if I am wrong, but you should be able to follow philos64's guide on restoring your N7 back to stock (2nd post)
