Flashing problem - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Last night I went to flash Trinity kernel onto my GSM Galaxy Nexus, it flashes but does not get past Google, I have to go into recovery and flash a different kernel, I am also on the stock ROM (4.1.2) using the latest clockwork recovery. Any help would be much appreciated

Download a kernel .img appropriate for 4.1.2 or extract the kernel from the stock 4.1.2 factory image of google, starts in fastboot mode and flash the kernel image with the command fastboot flash boot nameofyourkernel.img

It did not work

What doesn't work? fastboot? or the kernel flashed?

The kernel did not flash, it just leaves it with Franco

Latest
Sent from my GSM Galaxy Nexus

ah ok ... I had been to bootloop also with the Franco ....

franco uses its own ramdisk. trinity uses the rom's ramdisk. to go from franco to trinity you need to dirtyflash the rom again. then install trinity.

if its any franco kernel other than the very latest 4.2.2 kernel, you cant flash trinity kernel over it(or any other). it was a problem in some of francos code, he just fixed it. if so, just dirty flash your rom(dont wipe a thing) and trinity with it.

How would I do that

Stock kernel?

Hello, I have backups of stock ibhave made through CWM recovery. I was wondering if my stock kernel .Zip is in that backup. If not can someone show me where I can get a copy of the stock kernel?
Phone: Galaxy Nexus
ROM: GummyNex
Kernel: Franco
+1 +1 +1!!! Haha.
Ohh yes. I was just about to start a new thread. I would really appreciate some help on this also. Or a non altered, pure stock kernel for 4.0.2 and 4.0.3.
Galaxy nexus GSM.
Thanks in advance.

And a cdma please!

I would appreciate this also. Presently I just reflash the ROM without any type of wipe. Works but cumbersome.
Thanks in advance!

You people need to read xda rules.
Thanks bk.
So in theory, if I want stock 4.0.3, I just grab the stock image from the code website, flash, backup, restore my custom rom then restore boot.img from my stock backup?

faux123 has a reset kernel for 4.0.3 and 4.0.3 which is simply the stock kernel.

Yeah cheers man.
I used this. It reset it. But I don't know the build numbers for stock. Also, I don't know its like a pure kernel or is altered or not, depending on the rom.
Just a clean pure stock kernel. = )
Thanks guys.
Does anyone know the build numbers?

The reset kernel is the same as stock but it may have a different signature. It doesn't affect the functionality but if you want to send your phone in for warranty then you should flash google's factory images in fastboot. If you do, don't forget to flash the new radios for your region afterwards since the factory images include the XXK6 radio.
Thanks for your reply man.
That's true. I spose I'm after a pure kernel for just stability etc. I get funny behaviour from custom kernels and I'd like a pure unaltered copy of the 4.0.3 kernel. That's all. Haha. Hope I'm making sense.

[KERNEL][4.2/4.2.1] Stock kernel - CWM flashable

I've been playing with a few of the kernels available for 4.2.x so far and wanted to get back to the stock kernel in between testing kernels out. Also good for those who may have accidentally flashed a 4.1.2 kernel. This is a flashable CWM 4.2 Galaxy Nexus JOP40C kernel. Tested and working on my stock/rooted 4.2/4.2.1 GNex. As always, flash at your own risk.
Thanks to kalo86 for providing the AOSP ROM 4.2 zip where the boot image came from. :good:

Thank you. This is definitely very helpful for people like me who aren't aware that custom kernel wouldn't be backwards compatible.
However, I'm using nexus 7, just wondering how could I extract the stock kernel from the nexus 7 factory image?
(I understand that this isn't a nexus 7 post but I'm just asking a general question on how to get the stock kernel hope that's ok)
I assume this kernel wouldn't work for my device either?
Thanks in advance.

Good question. I will create a stock kernel flash for the Nexus 7 (as I have one as well) and post it up there in the N7 XDA forum.
Also, the kernel is the boot.img file located in the zip for ROMs. You can fastboot install it, or make it into a CWM file which is good in case you don't have a computer with ADB nearby. Link to N7 Stock kernel:

Thanks!
Thank you for ur reply. Definitely gonna save me lots of time!
How do you make it a cwm file? Just zipping the .img file?
Also, I can't seems to boot into cwm recovery without a toolkit is that normal for installing an incorrect custom kernel?

Boot up holding all the buttons to get into recovery. Then flash.
Google for the cyanogenmod walkthrough on how to make a kernel flash. Its a bit in depth for here. Good luck!

Android 4.2.2
Is this kernel compatible with stock Android 4.2.2?
Not sure actually. Hopefully someone can test it out as I no longer have a GNex.

Better not flash it as 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 kernels are not compatible with each other.

The title of this thread states 4.2/4.21, so my guess would be no on 4.1.2

[Q] Problem with kernel and booting up.

Hello. So I tried to install a Franco kernel and it didn´t go well. Now my GNex won´t boot-up. It have happaned before with franco kernel. Then I reinstalled ROM and had to wipe all data. So my question: is there any way to get my device to bootup without reseting. Fortunately I have made Titanium backup so everything isn´t lost.

Its a AOKP rom and I don´t know the exact kernel because I downloaded it with the franco.kernel app. The app said it´s the latest and stable version. ( I have tried to install different kernels with Nexus Root Toolkit.)
Be aware that 4.2.2 kernels are not compatible with 4.2.1 or lower ROMs.
The latest franco APP 8.8.4 will install a 4.2.2 kernel.
If you did that, you have to re flash other compatible kernel .

there should be a boot.img inside the zip file for the rom you are on. pull that and flash it in fastboot.

Pacman ROM

Hi guys,
Can you guys give me a direct link to downloading the latest version of pacman rom for the galaxy nexus on android 4.3? Thanks

As you requested, this is the latest available nightly on BasketBuild. Nightlies aren't stable (especially for PACman) so actually you shouldn't want them at all.
And you have hours of patience waiting for a spoon-fed answer but don't have the 10-minute patience searching for the links in the Dev subforum? Come on man, this is XDA - help yourself next time

1) You have a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP), right? Stock recovery doesn't flash custom ROMs.
2) What error does it give? Details needed.

And to add to that, make a back up in cwm/twrp, then wipe, then flash rom+gapps. The latest nightly of pacman was uploaded to the pacman site last night and appears to be running really well compared to the 10/7 release. It is also android 4.3.1
It tries to flash the rom then it just stops in the first half second of the flash and says error.

[Q] ramdisk

What is the deal with ramdisk? How do i switch between kernels to test out¿ do i have to flash a rom everytime?
Ex: i was runnin stock rom/kernal 4.3 for awhile, then just flashed fancy.. Do i have to reflash stock rom to clean the ramdisk?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
If fancy has its own ramdisk it is reccomended to dirty flash your rom.

Thanks man.. Yeh he uses universal ramdisk via anykernel2.. So i gues im alright. What does the ramdisk hold and y isnt there a way to -rm or format via cust recovery?
I tried to google it to find more info on it.. I guess i need to dig deeper

the way I've always assumed for ramdisk was specific stock settings, symlink setups, init files and such
sorry I can't explain much further.
maybe to try to get more useful info for your question, try Google "zimage vs boot.img, what does kernels ramdisk do/contains"
you will probably get many Linux.results, but they translate very easily into android since android kernel is Linux based
Lol.. Thanks

basically certain kernels have its own ramdisk (. i.e franco )so its not recommended to flash different kernel without flashing the rom first.
wipe cache
flash rom
flash gapps
flash supersu if needed
flash kernel
