This is not a Rom Manager backup or a 41D upgraded to 41F but an official 41F stock image build by Google obatined from
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
I have added a batch file to automatically fastboot flash this under windows and restore your phone to stock.
turn the device on with both volume buttons held and enter fastboot mode. connect usb and execute flash-windows.bat (included) you may need to install samsung adb driver and boot unlock the device though (which you can find on this forum)
tested on my galaxy nexus and restored successfully.

Thanks OP worked great!
Why would you upload mirrors when Google themselves are hosting the files? Wouldn't it be more reliable to just download straight from Google?
Also, I'm assuming that they'll be updating the recovery images for each official update as well... Meaning your mirrors would be outdated soon anyway. Just a thought.
Thanks anyway though, these will come in useful!
Google's package is compressed in tgz and comes with sh script, also doesnt include fastboot windows.
I put all necessary utils together with a bat script so user can just double click and restore.
Radio Image
can you change the radio image like this XXIK6? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374077

I'd prefer the Google Images untouched to be honest.
Guys, a little OT question, but I don't want to open a new thread just for a noobish question:
How could one actually brick the GNex? Is it possible to brick the GNex so serious that it won't even get recognized by fastboot?
If not, it's literally unbrickable. If yes, what would I need to do to brick my phone like that? Just wann know so I can NOT do it
will OTA updates works if i flash this image (assuming i've also cloclwork mod recovery)?

Since it's 100% Google image, I don't see why OTAs wouldn't work.

You could do what my idiot brother did to my Nexus S. Format /boot from Clockwork mod (under the storage options I believe) and then turn the phone off. The only way to unbrick it is to send it to Samsung, or the guy on XDA who runs that company that uses JTAG to fix it (which is what I did)

Why would that brick the device? Can't you still get into the bootloader or recovery and flash a new boot image?

Worked great for me. Thanks very much.

@ OP
Thank you man, a million times. Now I was able to replace Samsung's screw up Stock.
@ zyo will this factory image also work for lte or is this strictly GSM image? I have an issue where neither cwm or adb will restore my stock nandroid and I want a full stock backup just to be safe

The LG1 rom is the latest for AT&T G3. The second one in the thread is stock from initial release I believe. Download and flash. Since it's stock, it won't bump your counter. Will lose root though.

Uuuh, those roms are straight from Samsung Kies (their official roms). They are safe. I have used it to ditch root and go back to my stock kernel prior to flashing new custom roms. They are official roms from Samsung. If you want to get them from Samsung directly, install more bloatware on your pc (Kies). Have fun.
I really don't care about a few apps being there (even if I don't use it).. So are u saying that if I install either one of the three (in the green box in the picture) I should be fine? Do u happen to know why they have different numbers in them?

Nope. I got my stock roms from the thread I sent you. Use the thread. Like I said, they are official roms straight from Samsung. It wouldn't be a main sticky on the development forum if it wasn't legit. Or you can just download Kies from the Samsung.com website and use that to flash newer stock roms to your phone. Or you can pull your hair out wondering which one to use until someone who knows their serial scheme to answer it better than I can.. The choice is yours. Chances are, anyone else would just link to that same thread I sent you already anyway. I've used them and they are just fine. I keep the latest stock on my ext_sd for backup just in case, which I downloaded from that thread. Works like a charm every time I have flashed it to go back to stock.
If you are already rooted and just trying to get back to stock to take your phone back for warranty, I also suggest you look into the app Triangle Away. Just do a forum search, it's in the development section. It resets your flash counter to zero. You will want to do that *before* you unroot. Assuming you've already rooted. Since I don't know your situation, I can only offer some suggestions. Hope this all helped.
Hehe.. Thanx for replying so elaborately. I have indeed tried the ROM posted on the thread earlier to go back to stock from CM10. They do wrk fine indeed. I just thought I'd get it from the official Site. That's all. I'm a little new to this but not a uber noob

No worries, everyone here was new to Android and flashing at some point as well. I completely understand you wanting to make sure what you are about to flash to your $500 phone is clean and safe. I have used the roms linked from that thread from the samsung-updates.com website myself with no problems. Anyone else here on XDA will tell you the same thing, they are safe and straight from Samsung Kies.
Question .
I downloaded one of the original stock rom from the link , currently I'm rooted but if i wanted to go back to stock how would I do it?
Flash the file i just downloaded ? How with CWM? Odin? this part is what's confusing me.
Thanks if anyone can explain , I guess I mainly want to know how to go back to stock and how to unroot.
1st Download the Triangle away app and reset ur flash counter if it's not zero already.
2nd Put ur phone in download mode(volume down+home+power button) and use Odin to flash the Stock ROM from your computer.
3rd This should have removed all root from your phone. But do go into settings-> About device->Status->Device status(in ur phone) . If it still shows 'modified', goto recovery menu(volume up+home+power button) and do a factory wipe.
Ur good to go after that.

I did check the 'about device' to see if there is anything that'll help me narrow it down(before you even replied). Yes, it helped me narrow it down to the green box in the picture.
Before you type some random **** like this why dont you check it out on your phone and give a reply. Let me know if you find out anything useful.
At the risk of sounding like an ass, did you look under the battery?

Look under your battery again. Notice under the imei barcode. You see 2 letters there? Mine was mb. That might have something to do with it. Might not.

Wow..good catch. I thinks that's it. Its just two letters printed just like that not part of anything else. Mine is RW. Dont know what the difference b/w them are though. Thanks again. :good:

Called them up. Its all the same...the MB,RW and ZR refers to the different colors.
MB refers to Pebble blue
RW refers to Marble White
and ZR refers to Garnet red.

Thanks, but the first thing I do is search, and search. I ran into brick walls and nothing clear. All I needed was a link to the right place, not lesson on how to use search. Rooted and flashed many roms in the years I have been doing this, just never went back to stock. But lucky for me, I do have some friends that are more experienced and was able to get me back to stock.

Start here and follow the intructions to get back stock recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992303
You will also have to flash your firmwire in odin(scroll down to section 5) to get the stock software which your phone came with, make sure you select the right one depending on your phone:

Maybe I am not following you completely...but why would you try to take an OTA when you are unlocked and rooted?
Second, I don't believe there are any OTA updates for the Vzw One as of yet.
It looks like you attempted to install an update for the European/International HTC One.
Why you are trying to do so, I'm not sure.
But you don't wanna install that, even if you could...

Well, I assumed you had the Verizon HTC One, since you posted in the Vzw One forums.
If you have the International One, you may wanna post in the relevant forums.
Folks will be much more capable of helping you with roms/software intended for your model over there.
The OTA will not install while you are unlocked and running a Custom Recovery.
Try finding a rooted version of the latest OTA version for your device in your device's Development forums.
That would be the best, most appropriate way to update the stock software while staying rooted and unlocked.
Good luck! :good:

Thanks! I haven't yet.
I have gone back and forth about it quite a bit. (still thinking about it every day, lol)
Can't really give up or don't want to give up my Unlimited though.
Since someone was very kind and gave me a DNA a little while back, I may stick with it for now.
Still a vast improvement over the 'ol Thunderbolt, though I loved it too for quite some time.
There has been some talk of some very kind folks pitching in to help me get a One though.
So that way, I can keep my Unlimited and hopefully work on both the One and the DNA in the not too distant future.

you need to provide more information. What recovery your using and what version, what rom, bootloader version, how you rooted your phone, etc etc. Also, the search bar is your friend.
We all have lives outside of XDA we cant post a response as soon as a new thread comes up. Be patient. Like I said, do a little searching while your waiting for a response instead of waiting for someone to do it for you.

did you finally foun your answer that you where searching for? if not i know a method to unroot the phone and put back to 4.3
email me if so : [email protected]
Since your are running 4.3, you cannot flash anything newer older than 4.3. Do not flash any 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 ROM as this will make matters worse. ATT never released a complete stock 4.3 ROM that could be flashed via Odin. You can try to debrick it using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2549068
Edit: According to another thread, DO NOT USE Kies to re-install the firmware. It WILL BRICK your phone.
Can you get into download mode? Has the Knox counter been tripped? If it hasn't been tripped, maybe you could get it repaired under warranty. If it's been tripped, you can still try to get it repaired under warranty. Just be prepared for Samsung to refuse warranty service because Knox has been tripped.
