So I recently decided to root my phone but I can't get past the actuall root process. I have the bootloader unlocked and everything but when I try to actually root it my computer can't seem to find the phone. I've attached two photos of what I'm looking at, if anyone needs more information I'll try to respond as fast as I can. I'm really confused by this. Thanks in advance
Forgive me if you did, but it's worth asking, did you wait the whole 160 seconds?

Yes I did lol, I gave it about 5 minutes then I unplugged everything and tried again, I actually got a little farther and it said <Waiting for usb debugging to be enabled>.
But now it's not even being detected when I first open the root kit. At the top it lists no devices
Edit: Uploaded a screenshot of what i have now.. It's showing two devices and another pic showing where I'm stuck with the usb debugging.

So you do have USB debugging enabled right? Lol. You also have the GNex drivers installed, right?

USB Debugging is enabled and I do think I have the correct drivers, they're the ones that come with the root kit, I've also chceked in Device Manager and it looks correct from what I've seen. I've attached a picture of what my Device Manager looks like, I know its not much but maybe it's something. I'm just completely frustrated with this, it's been weeks and I can't figure it out

The first thing to pop up is the Auto play thing, It says Galaxy Nexus so I'm guessing it does. Also in the earlier screen shots it shows my phone is connected to my computer. It will connect in fast boot and ADB.

Well... if the toolkit isn't working out for you I'd recommend you do it manually. If you have any questions, just ask.

Ok if the computer is recognizing your phone then the drivers are correct. Are you sure that Settings>Developer Options>USB Debugging is checked? If so, are you following the toolkit instructions for rooting exactly? I'm just trying to make sure that you haven't missed something like I do so very often.

Heya, got an issue with a Galaxy Nexus phone. Phone does not seem to get any reception, I've attempted to add the Rogers network multiple times, and still either it says error or there is no reception at all. It is an unlocked phone, as the lock image shown upon restarting is unlocked, and as indicated in fastboot mode.
I figured it is the radio that is messed up. So I attempted to return to stock on my friend's phone. However, USB cable does not function properly, as I have attempted fastboot multiple times such as "fastboot devices" with the proper drivers installed etc. Using AirDroid to move the files, I've entered recovery mode only for it to load to the red triangle and then it restarts.
Also have repeated the steps after factory resetting. I am out of ideas guys, hoping maybe someone can provide some insight. Greatly appreciate it!!
Galaxy Nexus is the GSM one, not LTE. Thanks again.
-Thiefa
The red triangle is the stock recovery.
Having ADB working does not mean fastboot will work as well, they require different drivers, check in Device Manager for something like Android 1.0 or Android, then update drivers for it. There is a nice guide in this section by Jubakuba.

Will look into the guide.
The thing is, with the phone plugged into any computer, it doesn't show up at all on the device manager, in order for me to update the driver.

The drivers are a pain the the arse.
Actually, i did that for my N7, install the drivers and the toolkit never saw the light of the day anymore.
Btw regarding the naked drivers, plug the phone in > device manager > update drivers > then direct to the naked drivers folder right?
See the problem is I've updated the drivers and everything.
Whether in Odin, I don't see the phone pop up when I plug it in.
And no IMEI shows when I use a command prompt and attempted fastboot devices.
I'm just going to tell my friend to return it to Bell.
Thanks guys.
I am not rooted. Have yet to figure it out. I have rooted everything I had but this device. Followed albert wertz method for my last device. It was fine but maybe its a samsung update or a win update; I am not sure what the issue is. I am just trying to transfer files from cell>pc vice versa. Drivers are installed and trying the samsung toolkit too but it apparently thinks that debugging mode isn't checked cause it gets stuck there everytime.

Hope I'm giving the right answer. this is what i found in the C drive under the samsung toolkit folder
Samsung_USB_Driver_1.5.15.0
drivers
I can't post links yet, but do a search on google "samsung l710 drivers" and hit the first link. It should take you to Samsung's website and you can get the drivers there.
Also, check if the device is in the right mode by doing the following:
On the dialer, dial *#7284# (*#PATH#).
Set the UART to PDA.
Click on Qualcomm USB Settings and change it to MTP+ADB.
If it was set to RMNET + DM + MODEM for example, checking the USB Debugging option will not enable debugging.
Was trying to get my Gnex back to factory trying every way possible to use adb and could get the files to find their way to my phone. So finally i said hell with it and Second try fails and i unplug it to try and turn it back on and i get a screen with a phone and computer and a yellow triangle in the middle of both. Will not boot into anything. But when i plug it into my computer it will make the noise that something is plugged in and i try odin again and i can see the blue bar on my phone like its trying to download something to it, So i dont know where to go from here. Any way in hell i could take it to Verizon and have them do a factory reset? Any help would be appreciated.

To be honest i lack the knowledge of knowing everything unless i am following a guide on how to do things. So if i plug my phone in and here the sound it makes to connect and pull up a command prompt i type in adb fastboot and it brings up this long list of commands. Is this what you are talking about?

Then your device is not recognized by adb. So it's not working. If it was it would've shown a serial #.

Yupp, unfortunately the drivers are probably the hardest part.. I never managed to get them working on first try...
Anyhow, download the latest Android sdk and have it download the Usb Drivers section if you didn't already. Then try installing those drivers. Remember you have to reboot your pc after each try (trust me, there will be multiple tries) otherwise it won't work.
Once you got the drivers installed get back to us. And don't panic, your phone's fine.

Hey guys
Ok so I have a bit of a tricky problem. I got in over my head on my nexus and tried to install ubuntu mobile with a friend. Suffice to say things didn't go so great and now my nexus wont boot, when i turn the phone on it sits on the Google screen. To make matters worse, no computer I plug the phone into can see the device. The strange thing is I can still boot to cwm recovery mode but there is no longer an android image to flash from and I can't load one back on.
Any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Forgive my ignorance, but how to do install those files?
If you uninstall all galaxy nexus drivers in device manager, and Windows doesn't at least tell you it needs drivers when you plug your phone in, then you either have a bad cable or a very messed up phone. In that case you'd have a hard time installing universal naked drivers. There's something called 'OMAP flash' you might want to search for and ask about. All I remember reading is that some people have used it to recover their phones in situations like yours. Never used it myself. Yet. You might want to ask efrant. He knows everything.

Hey guys i've been looking through alot of google and can't seem to come up with anything so i turn to you awesome people.
My friend got a Galaxy Nexus GSM and he bought it with a boot loop problem. The phone is rooted and bootloader unlocked. I know because i can go to CWM recovery and also theres the unlock sign on it. However I can't get my computer to recognize it what so ever not even mount the storage. I figure i need to get the drivers to install but i need it to be recognized in device manager to do it through a rootkit. I tried to install the ADB drivers but also got no luck. I then tried to get to ODIN for it to work but ODIN won't recognize it either. Is there any way to install the drivers so i can put on a ROM on this. I think the person he bought it from formatted everything and messed it up. Is there anyway i can install the drivers without getting it to recognize first? I tried it in windows 7 and in windows 8. ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

You need to get adb to work with your device, which you can do in a custom recovery. You don't need to have USB debugging enabled, you would if you were booting into the OS, but not the recovery.
You can get drivers setup while in recovery or fastboot just as easy as if you were booted into the OS, so no you don't need another device.

again, read the thread i gave you. if you're still asking this question, read it again.
Isn't that for the nexus 4? And I did pay attention to section A but it told me how to install the drivers which is the same way as every other tutorial I've looked at. My device doesn't show up on my computer and I can't install their way. As for the fastboot driver installation idk what their talking about. I followed the instructions though and got no results. I didn't do the whole thing cause for part C I need the original rom for galaxy nexus and also I don't know if the platform tools zip is for my device so I haven't gone through with it just yet. I'm sorry it's not my phone so I don't want to mess it up even further. I've read about the part with it being in recovery mode with the volume up + power option but I'm at work and haven't tried that yet but I doubt that will work since the phone is clean. Can u please be a little more specific there's 99 pages that I have to go through for that sticky. If u can't it's ok I'll just have to go through it next week. Once again thanks for pointing me in the right direction and giving me some hope.

Am i missing something here? i did everything in the other steps such as downloading all the files into the same directory and everything.

You reboot the device into bootloader/fastboot mode, then you connect the USB, and there's no sign at all that a USB device has been installed?
Remove all drivers, reboot, and start over. Get a tool for Windows that allows you to really dig on all of the installed drivers and remove all Nexus devices drivers permanently. Rant: Umm, Windows sucks bad. Thanks Linus!

I may be wrong but i have to do some more research on it and i dont have a linux pc my laptop is down thanks to a power pin connector pin being pulled out. and i dont know if the device port is good or bad i can get a charge but that doesnt mean its fine. What if i get another device and install drivers via that and then try to get it to recognize? would that work?

To really make sure that the issue isn't on the host side but rather the USB port on the device? Yeah, that would rule it out.
Also, I just remembered: you're not using the USB ports of your PC case are you? Make sure you're using the motherboards' own USB ports.

Thats all it would do?! What about making me able to install the drivers and get the phone to be recognized? No wont work im dreaming?
And no im not using case ports at all i use them for charging and thats all i know at least that those arent reliable.
Windows 8 64-bit...drivers install...stuck
even I am stuck on the same roadblock. have my GNex stuck on the google logo. can access recovery mode though (TWRP 2.5.0.0). Now i just upgraded my PC to Windows 8 64-bit and cant seem to be able to install drivers.
the problem is that almost all the methods require:
1. GNex to be connected with USB Debugging ON
2. install ADB Drivers
3. get into Fastboot or Recovery
4. install Bootloader Drivers
since i cant get past the Google logo on my GNex...i cant perform Steps 1 & 2.
and if i directly try to install the bootloader drivers the OS returns an error (yellow exclamation next to the installed driver)
Added pictures to help explain better.
Thnx in advance.

SOLVED (Dont know how but it worked):
1. Factory reset (TWRP)
2. Installed an old ROM which was already on the GNex
3. Restart...it gets stuck at the Google logo...remove battery
4. TWRP - Factory reset
5. reboot...
