Mobile Odin you can unroot and get back to stock, but as far as re-locking, you need a working USB port to re-lock your phone.

Thanks

OMG!!
Is the issue anyway similar to this?
if yes, i really really need to kn ow how did that happen? the service center in my country are completely clueless!!

[Q] Unroot and relock bootloader with broken USB port

Hey guys.
My GNex's USB port recently stopped working, so is there any way to get it back to stock (for warranty purposes)? Would adb wireless work?
Thanks in advance.
I'm guessing downloading mobile Odin and finding a stock image to flash. All done from your phone.
Edit: I don't know if you can relock your bootloader. Will any terminal app helps.

I doubt one can lock their bootloader from mobile terminal due to that fact that oem lock is from fastboot. But then again, I may be wrong.
it's impossible! sure you can access adb over the network but the bootloader is only configurable trough the usb with fastboot. seems like you need to fix your usb port to relock the bootloader :-/

Ok thanks, that's what I thought and feared.
I'll go and try to get it exchanged with the bootloader unlocked then, and hope for the best.

How did the replacement go? I'm in the same sort of situation... I plugged my phone in tonight and the power port shorted, burnt the end of the charge cable and needless to say the port no longer works.
I'm debating going through Bell Warranty or using the Insurance coverage which comes with a charge. Gotta love the UNLOCKED Icon when you boot the phone :|

Well after using mobile odin to flash stock images, the usb port magically started working again, although only partially, and I could relock the bootloader, so I don't know what would have happened with it unlocked.

strange, glad it worked out for you! I went for the replacement phone through the Bell insurance option, It'll be here within 3 business days. Given my power port is physically burnt I'm not so lucky.

Can I revert back to stock without a computer?

Can I revert back to stock without a computer (just like it was when I first bought it, locked bootloader and all)? I don't have access to my computer at this time and want to revert back to factory stock all from my phone. Is this possible? Any links to assist with this?
Thanks.
to get to a stock rom yes it's possible. you will not be able to lock the bootloader as far as i know.

I see. So I would need a computer to lock the bootloader?
as far as i know you need a computer to lock the bootloader, yes
as far as i know, yes
A couple of people have posted similar threads and no, there is no way to lock the bootloader without a computer.
One user who was trying to send his phone in with a broken USB port actually tore his phone down and ghetto rigged his USB port to work...lol.

Heh... I'm in a very similar situation. Could you actually send me a link to post? I'd really like to lock the bootloader before I sent the phone in. Desperation is seeping in!

Unrooting Nexus Without USB

Hi Guys!
Now that i got that error with the USB Plug not working I need to unroot my phone and send it back to samsung (I already figured that relocking the bootloader isnt possible but i guess ill let it come to that).
All the tutorials i found where using fastbood and not the recovery, right now I'm on a rooted JB Rom, after ich had several Custom Roms installed (i.e. CM9)
Is there any way to get back to stock just using the recovery and not having to use the USB port?
Thanks in Advance

It's possible to relock the bootloader if you have root.
There is a guide on how to go back to complete stock + locked bootloader w/o USB cable.
Maybe i should drill myself a few times with it, let me dig out the link.:good:
Here you go!

Go into the app drawer and find supersu, open it and go
into settings, there you will find the option of Un-Root.
Click on it and reboot the phone.
Good luck!

What firmware are you on? Stock or custom recovery?

T-705 Missing developer menu

So i have gone into the about section and tapped the build number many times, had the message saying im a developer etc
There is no menu, or at least i cant see one, I assume it should appear in the general tab under the heading system?
If i press build number again it just tells me No need, developer mode has been enabled.
I have rebooted the tablet
Any suggestions?
Android version 4.4.2
Baseband T705XXU1ANF7
kERNAL 3.4.39-2293707
Build number KOT49H.T705XXU1ANG2
Anyone?

I am the only user on the device it shows as owner.
I have no idea then. What country is this tablet from? I dont even think a factory reset will do it.
UK, it's a 4G+wifi model. Got me pickled to, did a factory reset and nothing.

Since you didn't even bother to try, this is my last reply to you.
If you tried, you would have answered your own question and had success ....................

Did it and it worked.
Sorry if you feel that way, my process has always been to enable usb debugging before attempting to root anything.

Did you manage to root the tab? If so how? Thanks
Hey mate. It worked without usb debugging.
I always thought usb debugging was needed as every guide mentions it.

Thanks for quick response, Where did you find a guide to root. Cheers..
Just put root and Odin into a search term. Something should come up.
USB debugging is only needed in the operating system. It has zero effect and not needed in recovery or Odin mode.
