Question about GNex Toolkit.... - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi. Right now my phone is rooted but with stock 4.0.2 and I want to put it like out of the box stock and unrooted. Can I do this with the toolkit? Do I need to download the 4.0.2 version from Google?
What do I need to do?

You can do it with the toolkit or with Fastboot, your choice.
Download the images from Google and use either method.

Could I download the 4.0.4 image instead and use toolkit to flash it?

Yes you can.

I have the 5.1 version of the toolkit. Does it matter or should I download the latest version?

Yeah, take the latest version because it supports 4.0.4

you'd be better off using fastboot to flash the images... you wouldnt have to keep up with versions

Absolutely true... But it's ok to start with the tool IMHO, just start learning and try to find an answer to your questions and a solution to your problems yourself first before asking and you will learn...

If you have the images (and you do, since there is an Odin stock tarball floating around), you can easily re-pack them up to flash in CWM...

I am sure there is a flashable zip floating around out there somewhere. If not, you could make one yourself.
You could use terminal commands to flash it.
You could also use mobile odin.

Guess I'll have to do it the hard way then. I was just hoping for someone to read my question, and shoot me a link to a .zip... Lol. Guess that's lazy though. Downloading factory image from Google as I type.

flash it with fastboot or make a tar and flash it via odin

ROM incapable to OTA

I am in 4.2.2 and tried many times to OTA update to 4.3 but it always failed.
Looking in the ROM Manager first screen says that my ROM is not set up to receive OTA.
There are no other options as these are for premium users of the app.
What can I do?

Flash it manually via fastboot.

Well I tried to do so using the nexus root toolkit by Wugfresh but it doesn't seem to work for 4.3 yet.
My other option is to download the file from Google and flash it with the Gal.Nex. toolkit.
As you see I am not very good with commands etc and I am trying to do it the easy way..

OK you are right and I am going to do my homework tonight BUT...
Why the h... is it unable to OTA?
It's a completely stock jakju 4.2.2
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
something isnt stock. it could be the radio, kernel, some system file you modified.
When it errors out it should tell you where the problem is.

There are some system apps that I have deleted or freezed. It might be it?
In another thread here in xda I read that the device should be in stock recovery in order to accept the OTA update. Now mine is in clockwork mode.
Is this right?

Sigh. CWM doesn't stop otas, modifying /system does that.
If you removed system apps then that's your problem. You will never be able top install the OTA in any way

Yeah probably. But I still suggest using fastboot. It's not that hard.
