sure! as long as you already have your bootloader unlocked and recovery flashed.
download the rom to your phone reboot to recovery and flash

I'm not entirely sure. Can you boot the phone? if so you could use an android terminal on your phone to push the whole system.
Something like
Code:
adb remount
adb push sdcard/blahblah/system/ /system
If it works let me know. why do you not have access to a computer?
Edit: His idea is better than mine. I keep the recovery stock until i use it and boot a TWRP recovery image. Good luck Brochacho!

This is impressive. Not even 2 weeks ago a thread was created about this very subject.

The browser doesn't. Works just fine here. Xda app probably has a "Open thread url" or "Copy thread url" button. No excuse, sorry.

Just got a gnex

So I just got a nexus yesterday. Today I tried using the toolkit to unlock bootloader, root and write recovery.
So I did everything in the instructions and it worked....at first.
Now when I try and boot into recovery I get the fastboot android guy with a red triangle.
I also get a "fastboot read error".
Can anyone shed some light on this?

don't rely on toolkits
So just reflash a recovery.img and then flash this : http://db.tt/Ec8NOJLX
Fastboot flash recovery example.img
Once in recovery flash the zip and done.

Oh sorry. Was away and thought someone would have chimed in. You should be able to use any fast boot... I think. I just used the ones from the SDK.

afaik, fastboot is no longer available in android sdk (r13 was the last to have it).
also, i'm not sure htc uses the same fastboot binary.

From my understanding, Bigxie version is this with root and deoxed, so might as well get that anyway.
Actually I don't believe this thread belongs in the development section.
The value here is for someone like me who had the sdcard0 bug every time I flashed from 4.0.4. With this, I can wipe the entire device and start fresh with 4.1.1. We no longer have to roll back to ICS to "factory reset" our phones.
how can you install one of these? I am just used to the usual CWM flashing...

Read the post 4 posts above. You have to build the code into a .zip. He even pasted the link.
I will make a flash able zip in a few hours.

No and yes. In theory they should be the same but things can get weird with ota's some times. The best is a factory image base not a ota. So you will see most dev's updating their bases to this in the coming days. If he posts a zip it will be in the correct place in the Dev section. Also if he posts a rooted deodexed zip many people will thank him for it.

Phone freezing Shell granted su access?

My phone has been locking up on the homescreen. I can't scroll pages or open apps. It then comes back to working and says "shell granted su access" on the bottom of the screen . Are these two instances connected ? How do I fix it from freezing like this?
Mine does the exact same thing, have no idea what causes it but it does become a pita!

OK, did this appear after rooting or after flashing a ROM once rooted? If it is first option how did you root (link would be helpful) and what is your superuser app?

Okay so I had this same problem happen again and so I started searching all over and came across a thread in the i9300 section where another was having a similar problem. He concluded that after the phone had been up for 24 hours or so there was a big memory leak with kiesexe found in /system/bin. So he made a cwm zip that disabled kiesexe in that folder. I flashed it the other day and haven't had that problem yet and I've also gained about 100 mb more ram! I'm just heading to bed so I'll post it all tomorrow for anybody else having that stupid issue!

Are you rooted or stock? If you're stock, I would root as and flash instead of waiting on Verizon. You might be waiting a while if you're waiting on them.

I'm stoke still. I want too root so I can run code name android ROM. I really like it. But my computers broke right now. So I guess I'll just have to wait then.

no need to root; push all needed files to phone, reboot bootloader, flash a custom recovery, wipe data/factory reset, flash a custom rom (gapps if stated on first post)

You now for sure your volume buttons arent broken?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app
I'm sure that my volume buttons work fine, in CWM or PA Ui it works great.
I convinced that the problem is Fastboot itself
