[HOW TO] Root only STOCK/No Custom Recovery

Taken FROM http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11732-galaxy-nexus-root-procedure-broken-adb-method-dont-use/
With the big change of YOU WILL BOOT LOOP WAIT FOR ADB TO RESPOND and push all the commands then pull the battery and disconnect your USB cable and reboot normal you should have perm root!
**As always RootzWiki nor myself are responsible if something goes wrong. Root your phone at your own risk with the understanding it will void your warranty and there is always a chance of something going wrong.**
*This method WILL WIPE YOUR DATA*
First download Galaxy Nexus FYA Root Package and extract it to c:\gnexroot (for the purposes of this guide)
Also if you wipe and format remember to re-enable Debug mode before restarting processes listed above.
Method
1. First, navigate to C:\gnexroot and install the Samsung drivers (Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Moblie_Phones_v1_4_6_0.exe)
1. If those drivers dont work download pdanet from here http://forum.xda-dev....php?p=19709279 and let pdanet install the drivers for you. Worked for some of us.
2. With the phone turned OFF, hold VOLUME UP + VOLUME DOWN and power the phone on. This will put you in bootloader mode.
3. Navigate again to C:\gnexroot, and hold SHIFT on your keyboard, and right click in the white space. Then, click 'Open command window here'
4. In the command prompt, type:
fastboot oem unlock
You will be prompted to confirm that you wish to unlock the bootloader. You do, of course.
5. Once the bootloader has been unlocked, it's time to boot up the device using the insecure boot.img (ro.secure=0 set in the ramdisk). This essentially means you have permanent root for the duration of this boot session. In order to boot up using that boot image, simply type:
fastboot boot boot.img
Don't expect to see anything wildly different during the boot process - it will boot as normal.
6. Once the phone has booted, in the command prompt window, type the following commands, pressing enter after each line:
adb root
adb remount
adb push su /system/bin
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app
adb shell chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 06755 /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb reboot
Again I did NOT write these steps nor did I take credit for this procedure. My goal was to have all this information easy to access here so people don't brick their new device
Edit:
If you get stuck at the google logo and cannot push adb commands, pull the battery and usb cable then reinsert and reboot. If this doesn't work Reboot into recovery and wipe everything and start over.

If you do a factory restore remember to boot at least once after and re-enable debug mode.

anyone had the issue of not being able to unlock the bootloader?
i ran the command "fastboot oem unlock" and it just sticks at the response: <waiting for device>
but nothing shows on my phone.

I would guess your computer is not recognizing the device. Try installing the drivers and connecting the phone to the computer while it is in normal mode not the bootloader. It should install the drivers correctly that way and your computer will then recognize it when you boot into the bootloader and the commands should work.

yea... you are right... it was the samsung drivers not fully loading. re-installed the drivers then doing a windows update showed that there's a new set of samsung drivers on the windows update that needed to be installed. that did the trick.

The superboot method worked just fine for me.

You must be in recovery mode. Turn the phone off, press volume up and down as well as power. Keep it there until you're in recovery and then unlock.

Its not recovery mode, but fastboot mode. If you are in recovery fastboot won't be recognized. Looks like he got it fixed by checking his drivers.

can you also use this method for a Verizon Galaxy Nexus???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310
is there any difference?

Superboot method actually does the same thing as this method from what I read just one is automatic and one is manual.
Being I didn't see anyone else rooting from Verizon I took the time to figure out a manual method so i can verify each step and figure out issues if I ran in to any. With Superboot its either it works or it doesn't there is no playing with procedures.
This should work for other carriers to, I can only verify it for Verizon though.

I get past <adb reboot bootloader> just fine but then when I do a <fastboot oem unlock> it just says "waiting for device" forever. everything is installed but under my drivers it says;
"Android 1.0" drivers not installed.
plz someone help, ive searched all over the net but only found help for HTC phones and 2007 old posts.
edit: I am in "Fastboot mode"

Update the Samsung ADB driver under device manager while you are sitting in the bootloader. I'm bootlooping after pushing the boot.img

got it working, "Note: 1" under this guide fixed it.

Booted into recovery, formatted. At least i can boot up now.

Sounds like you didn't successfully unlock your bootloader. Have you resolved this?

Done and rooted. Pushing APK's now.
I would recommend doing a full wipe first. I think something got corrupted during the forced wipe when unlocking.
After wiping, I started over. Unlocked and flashed the boot.img. Got a full normal reboot. Flashed it a second time, and it stayed at the google screen and i could connect to it with ADB. Pushed all the commands and rebooted. Works great.
Thank you.

I assume you need to have adb installed before doing this? Or do the command prompts perform from windows?

I had it previously installed. If you download the zip. its already in there, just run it right from the directory you unzip it from.

I would like to return my phone to stock. Locked, unrooted, and available for OTAs. Is there a way to do this yet?

[Q] please help

i'm having bootloop after installing 17/02/2013 CM10.1 rom on my gsm gnex. the issues are:
1. i don't have any previous working cm10 rom saved in phone's sdcard.
2. can't get adb working, maybe because i never enabled usb debugging mode before.
fyi, i have never flashed any other roms, just CM roms. please assist..

Go into recovery and transfer a new Rom download to your phone if you have a computer. There is an option to transfer files inside recovery.

that requires adb (adb_sideload- correct me if i'm wrong).. my adb is not working.. can't boot to android.. can't find a way to enable usb debugging mode.. so no adb..

Do you have a custom recovery or experience with fastboot? Boot a recovery image via "fastboot boot recoveryname*.img", and adb is enabled.

Attached is clockworkmod touch recovery for gsm galaxy nexus, maguro. Phone in bootloader mode, open a terminal, cd to directory of fastboot and where you move this file to, type fastboot devices to verify device is connected, then "fastboot boot CWMT6023.img", without the quotes of course. This will temporarily allow you to use clockworkmod recovery, and thus adb, without having it on your device once you have selected "reboot now".
And if that didn't help, try consulting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895, since i'm thinking you haven't used fastboot in a terminal, but only know it's 'mode', and may need help with drivers.
You also might want to consider just straight out flashing cwm recovery, since YOU NEED TO MAKE BACKUPS!

sorry, i got cwm. but what does fastboot have to do with cwm? i can't use cwm to restore because files can't be sent from computer to it.
as of fastboot in terminal, it seems the phone not connected to computer. is there anything has to do with my drivers? "fastboot device" command shows <waiting for device>

I gave you that link to set up drivers more than anything else. If you already have cwm, boot to it and now you can adb push a rom.zip to your sdcard and install it, wipe caches and perhaps a factory reset [if you're changing to a different rom], OR, you can first try and wipe cache and advanced, dalvik cache to see if that fixes the bootloop.

1. Why didn't you make a backup?
2. Why didn't you make sure you know how to get out of this situation before flashing new ROMs?
3. Search as there are LOTS of tutorials on how to use adb to side load a new ROM via CWM

If you think that then you have no idea on how adb works...
That is ONLY applicable when Android is running. As it's not, it's irrelevant...

ADB should work in your custom recovery regardless of USB debugging being enabled or disabled.
I can't tell you how many times I have rebooted into recovery, wiped, then realized I forgot to put a file on my sdcard that I wanted to flash. I then use adb to push the file(s) from within the recovery.
Edit: I really need to refresh prior to responding.

so i can't get adb working because of the driver? thats why i got "waiting for device" when pushing file to phone?
edit: i've installed all the required drivers, it's not my 1st time doing it. MAYBE, this computer never connected to my gnex before, as i've formatted it a few days ago. So the gnex driver was not properly installed.. Is it possible?

If that version of cm 10 is for 4.2.2., then i think you may have an issue accessing adb without first getting the rsa verification, even in recovery (but im not sure). Looks like your only other option would be to fastboot flash stock images. And of course it sounds like driver issues, especially if your fastboot is not even working. Again, that link I posted will get you back up and running. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895

I think I may have ruined my phone

Hey there
I want to start off by saying I have very little experience with rooting, but am very familiar with jailbreaking apple devices so I figured i could manage.
I have a htc one m8 on rogers network locked. I rooted it and had super user and all that jazz, then flashed AOKP. Then I thought i actually liked the stock HTC sense better, so I tried to "get things back to normal"...lol.
Now im at the point where if i turn my phone on it goes straight to the fastboot screen(?) with all the "fast boot, recovery, factory reset, etc". Since I'm super new to all of this is there anybody that can write some instructions on how to get my phone back to stock? I would really appreciate it after panicking over this for 3 days.
Edit: In the fastboot screen at the top it says ***Tampered*** ***Relocked*** ***security warning**
also when i try to press recovery it shows the htc screen for 1 second then back to the same menu
i found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2710735 but i cannot even get into recovery

While being an expert with rooting and flashing custom recoveries on Samsung devices, I am also new to the world of HTC. Out of curiosity, what happens when you hit factory reset?

Unlock the boot loader again then install twrp recovery then head over to the stock backup thread and flash one of the nandroids for your cid.

Do fastboot devices ... adb commands itself won't work in bootloader, it has to be fastboot commands.

now you have a locked bootloader which means you cant do anything.. so your first step is to unlock it again then flash a custom recovery (TWRP) after that flash the stock rom+ boot.img ( to be safe) make sure it boots. RELOCK the bootloader then flash your firmware.zip.. hope it helps

If it's in bootloader it should show in command prompt when you type fastboot devices after connecting it to PC. If it doesn't then there is a driver problem perhaps. Check to make sure you have HTC drivers installed, or reinstall them. Might as well make sure adb is up to date as well, can do that through the Android SDK Manager. Another possibility might be that the usb cable isn't working correctly, try another cable. Fact of the matter though is, if it's in bootloader and you connect it to the PC adb/fastboot SHOULD pick it up.
So check and fix those things. Also make sure you use the correct commands, in bootloader mode, it'll be fastboot commands, not "adb devices" but "fastboot devices" ... "fastboot reboot" etc etc. Also make sure you're running the commands from within the adb/fastboot folder path(just for in case yeah...)

I already stated adb commands like "adb devices" "adb reboot" etc will NOT work in bootloader, it'll work in the system and yes, it'll work in recovery for sideloading etc, but NOT in bootloader. For bootloader you HAVE to use fastboot commands, "fastboot devices" "fastboot reboot" "fastboot oem lock" "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" etc etc

With that adb devices command again in bootloader? Did you flash TWRP yet? If so, Got to Advanced >>> ADB Sideload >>> Swipe to start sideload.
Place the ROM.zip file in your adb folder then:
Connect phone to PC, while still in recovery mode type adb devices to make sure your device gets picked up, should show you the serial number for device AS WELL as "sideload" next to it, if so then you are hooked up right. Next type adb sideload name_of_zip.zip wait until fully finished.
If sideload fails for one or other reason you can also try to push it. Reboot to recovery again, type adb devices to make sure device gets picked up, type adb push name_of_zip.zip /data/media/0/ or adb push name_of_zip.zip /sdcard/ flash as per usual then.
Yet somehow I don't think you even need to go to these steps

I made a small mistake with the sideload though, it actually installs automatically as such you don't have to go back into recovery to flash, as it did it already, sorry. Edited post to fix.
Well as long as you can get into phone now to copy the nandroid backup to the phone all should be in order, can flash back stock from the nandroid then.
Glad it worked out then.:good:

Help I bricked my Oneplus 3

Hi, i played around with my new OP3, and i wanted to root it. Since i'm noob at rooting, it went wrong. (i did it with twrp)
So first it just went in to bootloop, then i was still able to get to rcovery and stuff, but i followed a guide to fix bootloop, and that ****ed it even more up. The guide i followedet told me to use "OnePlus3_Unbrick_Tool"
After using "OnePlus3_Unbrick_Tool", i now cant even go into recovery anymore, the only thing i can do is go to bootloader, but when i'm in bootloader now, it wont connect proberly, so that i can use "flash twrp", so that i can use twrp recovery.
Also when i try to boot it, it because of "OnePlus3_Unbrick_Tool" goes into something, where it says "md5 checksum failed", and then restarts and does it again and again.....
I hope it's not bricked forever, pls help ))

have you tried re-flashing the stock or twrp recovery with adb sideload command?
if not give it a shot, it might work.

Just boot into bootloader mode and through command prompt check if your phone is detected by typing fastboot devices. If its detected then you flash a new recovery again. Forget the toolkit, just look for instructions on how to install a custom recovery.

Cool, so fastboot is detected, though you can't get into the recovery?
Step 1) make sure you have the latest version of "fastboot" and "adb" (Android Debug Bridge) and unlock the bootloader. This tread should be helpfull: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oneplus-3-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t3398733
You need to do this, because otherwise we will not be able to proceed (i.e. the phone is to be 'unlocked' for what we are about to do).
Step 2) If you are ready than let's flash a new recovery (TWRP):
This is also step 2 in the thread mentioned above. Very important: "Once the flash has completed, Don't use the "Fastboot Reboot" Command Instead Unplug Your phone then Manually boot it into recovery by keeping Power + Volume Down button pressed."
So once you have flashed a new recovery using fastboot, than you should reboot your phone into the new recovery!
step 3)
Once in the new recovery (TWRP) go to advanced and to ADB sideload. Make sure your computer detects your device with the command "adb devices" and flash a new ROM. Just for simplicity use the official OOS 3.2.4.
This should do the trick. Before you go and try make sure you understand EVERYTHING I have written. Let me know if you have questions.

Hey i have the same problem but this fix does not work for me.
So I have the bootloader unlocked and I can enter the bootload and my computer detects my device which is nice.
when I flash twrp on my phone trough CMD it doesnt work, my PC tells me that everything is okay but my phone will not boot into twrp and instead it will give me weird errors.
---------- Post added at 03:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------
this fix worked for me,
On the screen when the phone failed to md5 checksum, you've got several partition failed right? in red text.
- download this : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424942573
and then extract.
- download platform tools attached below. extract in the same folder with first file you've downloaded.
- Boot your phone to fastboot mode, plug your usb, make sure adb and fastboot driver are installed.
- on the folder, hold shift and right click, click open command here
- type fastboot devices
- make sure your serial number appear.
- now flash the img of the missing file according to the partition in red text on your ms5 checksum failed one by one.
- e.g. "fastboot flash boot_aging boot_aging.img.
- make sure you flash all the missing partition.
- type fastboot reboot.
this will boot you to oos 3.1.2.
unfortunately I couldn't extract the newest oos dat. data. but you could always take the OTA
goodluck mate. sorry for my english

Hmm bad try installing all op3 drivers and see whether phone is detected or not. I was in the same situation previously. Pushing zip through adp terminal is painful process. I got device offline first,after solving that i got service not recognized issue. For solving that usb debugging needs to be enabled i stuck in that step.

can you enter recovery trough fastboot mode? I.e. if you are in fastboot mode you van use the volume keys to select recovery.
100% sure you can't enter recovery?
you can try Fast and pro's option. let us know!

Stuck on bootloader

I cannot exit my bootloader. Even if I choose to reboot to TWRP it gets me back at the same selection screen. I tried the other options as well but they didn't seem to work. HELP!

My PC is not recognizing my device in cmd. When I type adb devices it's shows no device detected and I have even installed the zuk drivers.

Qfil?

When you are in bootloader, you should use fastboot command instead of adb.
And first, try to flash TWRP using: fastboot flashing recovery "YOUR TWRP IMAGE". If it works, flash rom like normal.
If that doesn't work, use QPST.
