Flash IMM76D? Lol

Flash the boot.img or boot zip file from the factory image provided by google.

Isn't there the kernel only......?????

You need to unzip the gzip file and pick out the boot.img

Don't be afraid to extract files from a zip and flash them yourself. For the most part, the zips that you flash are just a file in a folder and an extremely basic script that says "copy this directory from this zip to the phone". Play with it a bit and have a backup in case you screw something up, but don't just assume it's prohibitively dangerous to get your hands dirty a little bit.
That said, both faux and imoseyon (leankernel) have links to stock kernels in their kernel threads. I don't know if they maintain their xda threads actively, but if you can't find it here, look on rootzwiki. Google the obvious terms if you aren't familiar with the site. ("leankernel rootzwiki"/"faux rootzwiki")

Yes, its in the zip file. Pull the boot img and flash it. That's the kernel.

the build of the image is IMM76I.......i want the IMM76D....thank you

I haven't deleted the IMM76D kernel for maguro from my computer yet, so I've attached the boot.img.

Full stock rooted 4.0.4 ROM

Hi everybody,
Now that the 4.0.4 has been released for the Galaxy Nexus GSM, is there a full (not OTA) stock 4.0.4 rooted ROM with Google apps?
Is it needed to update kernel and radio? I want to keep CWM.
I've searched around the forum but I didn't see answers to all my questions...
Thanks you!

to have the full 4.0.4 stock rom, you'll have to unlock bootloader and flash the factory image provided by google, either by fastboot or using the nexus toolkits. The kernel and radio will be flashed automatically if you use the toolkits as it's part of the image. You can then use the toolkit to reflash CWM
Yes but I prefer a .zip file so I can delete everything that I don't need before flashing the ROM.
Something like this ROM (the one I have now) :

Thanks you!
Download the factory image from google and root it yourself.
If I was able to do it I would not ask for a ROM.
Is there an easy way to convert the image from google in tgz format to a flashable .zip file?

Yes. You can use dsixda's kitchen to make a flashable .zip file from the .img you can download from google.
why not just flash the 4.0.4 images and re-root?
Sorry to hijack, but I've got a question along the similar line.
If I use the galaxy nexus toolkit and unlock my boot loader, then use the option in it to restore to stock. After that I keep my boot loader unlocked. Will I still get ota updates?

Unlocked bootloader doesn't effect OTA's AFAIK. Custom recovery like CAN however does.

How to flash a kernal

Title says it all. How do I flash a kernal like say Franco of ezeekles kernal?
1.Should I have a custom from or can I flash it on the stock one?
2.should I use a custom recovery aka cwm or is it OK if I have the stock one?
3. Finally after downloading the kernal file what is the code on fast boot to pull the original one and the code to push the new one?
Thank you in advance guys .
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
1. As long as you're unlocked and rooted, you can flash a custom kernel to any rom
2. Yes, flash through cwm revovery, or;
3. Extract the boot.img from the Kernel.zip file you downloaded. Command is "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
If you're not familiar with adb/ fastboot, option 2 is the safest
Another possibility if you want to flash Franco or Lean Kernel is Francos app (franco.Kernel updater) from the market.
With that app you can download and flash the kernel.
Of course you need root for that.

1. You can have any ROM and flash a custom kernel (although some kernels require you have 4.0.3 or higher).
2. You can use CWM and it is recommended that you do. Just place the kernel's .zip somewhere on your SD card and then go into recovery and install from SD card.
3. There is no need to do anything with fastboot as the recovery flashes .zips and does everything. However if you want a back-up the original kernel, you can download the factory images from Google (assuming you have a yakju device or you can swap to yakju if you're not on a CDMA network) and you'll have the copy of the kernel.
Thank you a lot guys .. that was helpful and now I can flash a custom kernal easily

[Q] Safe to flash Takju on Yakju?

I want to get this straight: is it absolutely safe to flash the whole official .tgz file from the developer dot google dot com?
I want to flash 4.1.2 Takju so I can get the OTA to 4.2 (or 4.2 imedeately), but is it safe to flash the whole .tgz file without modifications?
Thanks

Which file is kernal in stock package, how to to flash in Odin?

My brother has a At&t gs3 that needs to be sent for warranty. He still has stock firmware except that it's rooted and has a custom recovery. I assume all he has to do is flash the stock kernal to get rid of root and recovery, right? I Downloaded DLK3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968625. The packed contents show 2 .img files, boot.img and recovery.img. Can these be flashed in odin, and is the boot.img the kernal and the recovery.img the recovery? I know that at least from the previous galaxy s models that the kernal was around 5.3 mb. But I may have mistakenly though that the recovery was part of the kernal.

Thank you for your reply. There is a guide to flash the complete package using odin. However, I am not trying to do that. Because where he is currently at, he does not have the bandwidth to download the 730+mb package, thus I am trying to just get him access to the kernal/recovery, so that he can flash that using Odin.

A different recovery can be flashed with the .img file through a terminal emulator on the phone. I am unsure about flashing anything else.
Okay, i found a couple tutorials on making odin flashable files, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484304 and http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=155. I'm just not sure which of the files in the stockfirmware package is the kernel. I'm used to zImage, but don't see that in the list. There is a boot.img whish is 5.48mb, so i assume this is it, but not sure.

The boot.img is separate from the kernel. DO NOT mess with that.. you will definitely brick the phone.. Im no expert on any of this, but really the best way to go about this is with Odin. There is a mobile version of Odin in the play store. Mobile ODIN
Not sure if this is useful to you guys.

The plan is a odin flash. Just trying make a odin flashable file of just stock dlk3 kernel and recovery.

Just make sure you know exactly what you're flashing before you do it.

Interesting link on Rootz about this even though its for a Verizon Galaxy Nexus-click here. Looks like you can, but kernal has to be placed in specific folder. Don't hold me to this, as Galaxy Nexus is a different species.
You can use any kernel, but the boot.img/ramdisk/init.rc/bootclasspath variable has to be modified for MIUI.

Download this zip: http://db.tt/gIQ702Z8
Then REPLACE the boot.img that is in there with the new boot.img/kernel you want to flash (AKA, unzip, replace boot.img with kernel you want, then rezip)
Now flash in recovery and you will be running any kernel you wish
Technical details of my swapKernel.zip: unpacks current boot.img to temporary folder, unpacks boot.img you wish to flash, swaps ramdisk, repacks NEW zImage (of kernel you want to use) with current ramdisk (of kernel that is currently on the device) and then flashes that new boot.img

It seems to have worked. thank you a ton! but one last question, what app do you recommend to make kernel tweaks?
And i dont know what it is.. but it seems to have broken wifi?
Try rebooting
If it persists, you'll need to flash the other original kernel back
Try another version/kernel maybe?
The Trickdroid kernel app is great (play store, free)

Ah, I know what it is
Flash the zip of the kernel you want WITHOUT the boot.img inside (so that you're modded boot.img isn't replaced)
The thing is, each kernel also comes with modules and other built specially for that kernel, so those need to be flashed along with the kernel (but since you don't want to flash the entire boot.img for MIUI, you need to first do the steps in my post above and then flash the zip for the new kernel WITHOUT the boot.img to keep your special boot.img)
