I keep getting the new OTA IMM76I update for my Sprint Galaxy Nexus and every time it downloads & starts to install it just opens up TWRP recovery and nothing happens...
I tried to use the Nexus Toolkit as well and do exactly what it says but get hung up on "waiting for device" after it extracts the files and everything...
I've been searching for 4 hours to try to get this update done because my calls keep dropping...
is it because I have the Franco Kernel installed on a rooted device?
no ROM or anything, just rooted with the Franco Kernel...
I tried like hell to find the stock kernel but couldn't...
DAMN this is aggravating
could someone PLEASE either explain or point to a link where it explains how to deal with this issue?
HATE having a brand new phone and the calls keep dropping....
I know there are "lots of threads on this issue" already but none clearly explain how to fix THIS issue...
please hep me out...thanks in advance.

While the above link is for how to manually install updates, the reasons why an ota update won't install are the same: if you want it to install ota, you need: the stock kernel, stock recovery, stock radio, and stock rom (with no original files missing/modified). Additionally, all of these have to be the same version.
Maybe you could also get the ota update file name for us as well.

does the stock radio stay the same after root?
like I said, all I changed was the kernel...so I'd have to flash the stock kernel to install the update, correct?
another issue I'm having is damn CWM....I have TWRP on here now and when I go to flash CWM through ROM Manager it get all the way to the end, freezes then fails...can't seem to get CWM installed for my life.
also what is all this "yakju, takju, etc..."??
I'm new to this device from an Evo 4G where we just download & flash and all updates work..never had an issue like this.
my device is v4.0.4., build Imm76D.L700FC12
baseband L700.05 V.FC12/L700.FC12
on the bootloader I saw "toro" on there so I'm guessing that's because it hasn't been updated, correct?
thanks.

If all you changed is the kernel, then all you have to do is flash the stock kernel.

would you have the stock kernel?
can't seem to find it...
Try the GN root kit. You'll find it in the dev section. That will get you back on stock kernel.

You need to have stock recovery too.

Unfortunately I do not (I don't own a Sprint device), but I'm sure that it is floating around somewhere.

if you were running ics or newer you will have to cwm flash nardrom inception or another gingerbread based rom before you can use odin to revert back to stock.
thanks for the reply yohan4ws! so its not possible to flash ics via odin ? i was on stock ics, ran into some trouble and needed to flash.. samfirmware gives us a tar.md5 so cant flash it in cwm..
Ok, maybe I'm misunderstanding something... when you said "Stock" I assumed it was the Gingerbread that the phone came with .. as well, ICS was NEVER released by Rogers, only AT&T. So, If you were running AT&T, you were not running Rogers "stock" rom.
If you want to revert back to ICS 4.04 "stock" goto www.samfirmware.com, sign up , download the AT&T ICS and flash it to your phone with Odin.
This has been covered many many many many MANY times and a simple search would have sufficed instead of waiting a month for a reply.
Hey guys,
I'm trying to go back to a stock Touchwiz ROM from CyanogenMod 10.2. My only problem is, I can't Odin back to a stock from because the only Odin compatible file I have is 4.1.1 which my phone will no longer go to since my baseband was updated after trying a former 4.3 ROM.
Can anyone link me to a 4.3 ROM that I can flash in Odin? I'm asking because most of the ROM's I'm finding that are 4.3 require you to be on a TW ROM before flashing their ROM. Thanks.

This link is useless for me as it does not have a 4.3 stock rom listed in their official firmwares. They have only up to 4.1.2 which I cannot Odin back to since my baseband was already updated.

Do I have to be on a stock rom to use this? I'm currently on Quantum V3 and I don't have access to a stock rom to revert to since my baseband was updated.

No you don't have to be on the stock rom to use that, but the bootloaders are for 4.3 so if you haven't updated yet this will update you.
You can flash any rom you want to as long as you do not mess with the bootloader you will be OK. I do not know if this work on anything besides an at&t phone using it on anything else is done so at your own risk just the same as using it.
What about the recovery? any way to get a stock recovery image?

Try these http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498233, stock at&t rooted without Knox (Believe me man, better without knox). But they are only leaks of the official firmware. I am not a professional developer so you might wanna create a new thread and ask if it's possible in you're situation.

The Canadian and US phones are pretty similar. Maybe a Canadian rom will work?

No it won't work. Since it is a stock rom it most likely will not work, he won't be able to call, text, or use data.

I wasn't sure if the OP could install some sort of stock firmware to get his phone going and then install the necessary radio.

The best choice for him is to stick to a custom rom until the AT&T 4.3 update releases.

Wow. it seems as if you got people in here just giving you ODIN TARS to flash. i wouldnt listen/ flash anything than the leaked 4.3 update for att because MOST odin files have bootloader upgrades in them and if you are on 4.3 you will brick trying to restore stock

Based on the OP, the phone is currently running Verizon's 4.1 which leads me to believe the bootloader has not been updated beyond 4.1.2 since recovery mode is accessible; therefore, I think flashing 4.11 or 4.1.2 stock roms would be fine.
As always, it's best to check the installed bootloader before proceeding with any more flashes.
I used the stock firmware from here to downgrade my Bell s3 from stock 4.1.2 to stock 4.1.1.

i wouldnt flash the bootloader just to to be safe though. id flash the recovery from the root forum and then install a cm or aosp ROM.
or open the tar and make sure there are not bootloader related files i forgot all of them but one is mbl. something and 1,2,3 theres a post on here how to check i just dont know where
I hope someone can help with a dilemma I have.
I need to flash back to stock rom and do a factory reset on my AT&T SGIII - this I know how to do . However, what I don't know is if the links I've found for tar files for a stock restore (like the one posted here)are for the ice cream sandwich version that launched with the phone, or the newer jelly bean version.
If it is the older version, once I'm done restoring it back to stock and factory settings, will I get an option to update to jelly bean thru AT&T?
Or do I need to find a stock AT&T jelly bean file to flash? If so, where do I find that?
any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Did you update your phone to AT&T 4.3 stock rom via an OTA update? If you did, do not flash any rom that includes an older bootloader as the flash will brick your phone.

No. Ever since going to the Sonic FreeGS3 Resurrection rom, I have been on the 4.1.1 version. I've never been to a more current version than that since that was the last version update for this rom and I liked it just fine.
Even though I'm not wild about having to return to stock, I am at least excited about (hopefully) being able to go up to the latest version released by AT&T. But I wasn't sure if I need to flash a stock 4.3 version AT&T rom (or even where to find that) or if I could just flash the original released stock rom and then be prompted with OTA updates to go to the newer versions.
Any thoughts or input is greatly appreciated.
The latest version of the AT&T ROM is 4.3 which can be done via an OTA update or Kies from a stock 4.1.1 AT&T ROM.
Any reason you need to return to stock? Personally, I would not go near 4.3 as it's not required to install KK ROMS and, once on 4.3, rooting, etc. becomes more complicated.

I have to for work. That's the only reason I'm going back to a stock rom. Plus I want to trade my phone in after a few more months once my contract is up.
