Reboot bootloader, select recovery, restore a nandroid, or flash a rom. It wipes the kernel when you change hboot

i dont have a recent nandroid but i do have a kernel on my sdcard could i just flash it?
Just do an advanced restore of the boot partition.

How long are you waiting for the md5 check, it can take a bit sometimes
Flash a boot.img from a restore and it should work

word of advice, always make a nandroid backup before you do anything. When you change hboot you will have to flash a rom or a nandroid restore to get past hboot

I would switch to RA-evo-v1.8.0 and try that one. If that doesn't work then you could make a nandroid and then flash the FORMAT_ALL.zip file to make sure there wasn't something that didn't get wiped correctly. It will erase all info including some that recoveries don't offer. It is safe to use and does not touch your sd card. It was something I got from AmonRA.
This is official stock image build backed up cwm recovery fastboot flash. just unrar then drag folder to your backup folder inside your clockworkmod folder on your phone then open rom manager then click restore,then your back to stock,or just go into recovery and select restore ,if you use or dl it plz click the thx button ,it is not rooted nothing added or taken away , pure STOCK,,,,4.0.4 IMM76D ,,XXLA2,,,,, http://www.mediafire.com/file/ca2ixixe5wqr5dm/2012-03-30.16.49.54.rar
Do you have to be on 4.0.2 to do that? or you can be on any custom rom and then just restore with that??

doesnt matter, its a backup......which are images of your recovery and boot. System, cache and data images also.
So yeah doesnt matter.

id still do a full wipe to be safe and you will need to root it if you want to
I'm going to give this a try also. What kernal is in this?
Just to confirm, this has been the easiest way to flash for me, many thanks buddy.

The stock radio is not that bad, i see no diffirence between the new radio and that of kk6
this is not for Nexus or S2?
and this is will wipe all thing? and go to orginal one?
and this is for GSM or LTE?
Is it possible to flash this over Stock rooted 4.0.2 without user data wipe?
great
firstly thanks and all that - very happy
and please dont flame me but im amazed there are folk who dont know what RAR is , i cant imagine how you can get to the point where you feel the desire to root a phone but somehow havent heard the term unrar !!
again im not having a dig its just an observation, may be im just too old and rar is a format some folk have never come across
heres to WINRAR and other extracting tools LOL
Like the other user stated, this has also been the easiest upgrade for me. Went straight from 4.0.1 to 4.0.4. Used the Nexus Toolkit to restore root, Clockwork, etc. I have tried flashing to 4.0.4 on two other occasions with other ROMs and had the odd issue. Thanks!

back up your 4.0.2 first and try you can always reflash
Thanks You.
Optimal option for to flash Stock ROM, and for rollback with the Custom ROM.
It's a PRI for Verizon User.
Maybe help some people who has flashed Chinese RUU to get PRI to 2.71.
Use it you can downgrade it to Verizon version (v1.92) via QPST.
But I don't know more about QPST and I'm poor in English, Can't correctly to explain.
Good luck! Sincerely hope to restore your love phone.
Thanks Relay. I hope this helps those folks with issues after flashing the RUU yesterday.

Make sure you rename it to PG32IMG.zip
Just so you know the correct current Verizon PRI 1.94_002, this file will not fix your device, it will downgrade it though.

no,
my phone is stil on the old one..
Hmm. My mistake maybe mine is a higher version because I got one of those refurbs with the newer sense killing firmware lol. Actually I wonder if that may be part of the issue?!
I had the yakjuxw and flashed it to yakju. I received the past OTA updates just fine, but when I received the message saying there's a new update for my phone, I went ahead and downloaded the 130Mb -140Mb size update and when it asked to restart my phone, it installed maybe a third of the way and the the little android went on his back and "collapsed" and I had to take out the battery to restart my phone. I tried it again and the same thing happened.
What could be wrong? :crying:
Thanks for the help guys.
When you flashed to yakju, did you also flash the proper radio and bootloader?

In order for the OTA to work properly you have to have stock recovery, radio, bootloader, and system files. You can't have modified anything except an unlocked bootloader.

so what you're saying is I have to re flash yakju?
I restore my phone to factory settings first?
I had yakjuxw also, it comes with a different radio. flashing to yakju (or takju) is not enough. you have to flash the radio also. look for efrant's post in how to do it and get it, it's in these forums, that's what I followed.

sorry, just re-read the question, what you describe happened to me when I deleted the recovery folder from the update file. The unmodified file updated fine. But then you have to root and install clockwork recovery again, which is fairly easy too.
Another issue I had prior to that was when I tried to flash the update and I didn't realize that the file didn't finish copying to the phone. check file size it should be around 147mb I think. I hope one of these tips help!

That is because you do not have the XXLA2 radio installed. The last update did NOT update the radio, so it didn't check to see if you had the XXLA2 radio installed and, hence, did not fail.
I had exactly the same problem, however as everyone is saying; Just flash the xxla2 radio again and the problem is solved!

It doesn't. If you've got an unlocked bootloader, just flash the radio via Fastboot.
