So, I purchased two identical unlocked gsm nexus phones on separate occasions. The problem is, on my first one, I have upgraded to the latest 4.04 build (IMM76L) which was like 708kb...but the second...it will not complete that update. I constantly get the little android guy on his back with the red exclamation point. It will not finish the install. The phones bootloader was unlocked because I flashed to yakju back when I got it...but again, one phone works and updated fine but the second didn't. Maybe something else was already updated or something...but here are the other pieces of relevant info:
Phone 1 which updated correctly:
Baseband: I9250XXLA2
Kernel: 3.0.8-gda6252b
Build: IMM76L
Phone 2 which DIDN'T update:
Baseband: I9250XXKK6
Kernel: 3.0.8-g034fec9
Build: IMM76D
I guess my main question is how do I get Phone 2 updated successfully...the phone keeps telling me the update is available, yet it never completes, so I am constantly getting the pop up which is really annoying.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Flash the 4.0.4 IMM76I directly.

is the recovery still stock on that one or did you install a different one when you flashed it? i'm thinking this was flashed with a toolkit and some would put a different recovery so it won't update as the update looks for a complete stock image.

Since your device has no data to lose, just flash the full IMM76I build by following the instructions here.
Hi everyone, new android user here! I'll try to make this as brief as possible:
Recently purchased a used Unlocked Galaxy S3.
Currently using Bell Carrier on it and it works fine.
I noticed that even after restoring SuperSU was installed.
Checked download mode -> odin installed with custom binary
Checked to see if the phone has root access -> it does not
I wanted to try and flash it with a official ROM to completely restore factory settings but I don't know what the original carrier is so I don't know what ROM to download. I called a couple carriers but they have no record of the IMEI.
I'm fairly new to android and my past two days of google searching hasn't accomplished anything relative to my problem (although I know a lot more about the rooting community!) so I thought I'd ask here.
Is there any way to know what's going on here?
Can I restore the phone to factory firmware/ROM/etc.?
Here is some phone information:
Model: SGH-I747M
Android Version: 4.1.1
Baseband: I747MVLDLK4
Kernel: 3.0.31-538866
Build Number: JRO03L.I747MVLDLK4
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Just go and download this program http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
Go to Tools > Firmware Install and Initialization
It will ask you for your model number and Serial number. It will use those to determine what stock ROM is correct for your phone.
It will then flash you to stock, just as Odin would, including the stock recovery.

It definitely looks like you are on the stock Jelly Bean firmware from Samsung. I747M is the Canadian model (747 is ATT). Your build number also looks to be the stock 4.1.1 based on the DLK4 build number! Just as the last guy said, grab kies or use Odin to go back to complete stock if you are not happy with what you have now. If your phone is showing custom binary flashes and you want to get rid of that, give Triangle Away a try! Good luck. :good:

Thank you! That worked like a charm! The device is now in a "normal" state and the binaries are "official".

Thanks for the advice! I'm not too concerned about the flash count, that's only really important your warranty to to be valid, right? But I'll look into it, it may be worth it anyway.
Thanks again everyone!
Hi
My daughter has a desire z and it is playing up on her:
Randomly rebooting
Year and date of phone changes randomly
I am thinking that I could just wipe the phone and reload the stock rom on and it may fix it (maybe just my winxp memories kicking in)
Im not too sure how to go about it though.
If I am loading a stock rom on it, do I need to root it?
Whats the easiest way to wipe the phone and relaod the rom?
Also, where would I get the rom from?
The phones details ATM:
Android Version: 2.2.1
Baseband Version: 12.28h.60.140fu_26.06.02.27_M
Kernel version: 2.6.32.21-g132894e

Build number: 1.85.861.3 CL331649 release-keys
Software number: 1.85.861.3
Hope this helps and thanks for any help I get.
Since it appears that its running stock already I think you can factory reset from bootloader. You might also be able to flash the stock image from the bootloader. Wait for more responses until you do anything

Yes, you're on an old version.
2 options :
- rooting it and opening custom ROM choice
- updating via wifi with stock ROM (via Wifi in the system menu).

my daughter has actually just got herself an iphone so I am doing this phone up for my wife to use, as she has the same model but screen is cracked.
She fears change so I wanted to just put stock back on.
Is there an updated stock I can put on it?
I am not sure what is meant by "update from bootloader"?

You should be fine with stock, granted there are many superior custom ROMs based off stock but that's besides the point.
Simple fix is to do a factory reset in settings>privacy>factory reset, or something like that. Then being you are on froyo I would suggest doing an ota update, simple way is to go to settings>about pone>check for update.
Or from dialer type *#*#CHECKIN#*#*

We all tell the same.
1srt : erase data : From bootloader or from Menu ("reset factory " or something like that).
2nd : after booting again, update by wifi.
You must know that some data may certainly be lost (SMS, apps...)
Thanks for all your help.
I have done the factory reset and then upgraded via "check for update"
The phone is working fine and the missus is happy with it so I am not going to touch it anymore
Cheers
Hi everyone, This is my first post and my first trouble
I have samsung galaxy nexus, Its made in korea (written at its back when we remove the battery), when i got this phone it was probably rooted because it was on 4.0.2 and software update was available to 4.1.1 but when the update completed and phone restarted, it suddenly shows me a red Exclamation mark and then nothing happens and i have to pull out the battery, i thought its because my phone is rooted. So, i searched on the internet about how to bring my nexus to stock factory rom, i found this thread to be helpful http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895 , so i followed all the steps excluding the last step saying to re-lock the bootloader... and downloaded this factory image from google Factory Images "takju" for Galaxy Nexus "maguro" (GSM/HSPA+) (with Google Wallet) - Android 4.0.4 (IMM76I), first i tried with the 4.1.2 but it says exceed buffers or something during installation, thats why i tried 4.0.4 (IMM76l) and it was installed on my nexus. It works fine, but still i can't update to a newer version of android, when i got in settings > system updates it shows me the update of around 144mb of adnroid version 4.1 but when it finished downloading, i get the same error, android with a red exclamation mark, and i have to restart...help me please i am writing here with full details about my firmware
Model Number: Galaxy Nexus
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband Version: SCO4DOMLA1
Kernal version: 3.0.8 - gda6252b
android - [email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT fri Apr 13 11:35:09 PDT 2012
Build Number: IMM76l
and when i go to fastboot mode, it shows this detail:
Product name: tuna
Variant: maguro
HW version: 9
Bootloader version: PRIMEKK15
Baseband version: SC04DOMLA1
Carrier info: None
Serial number: 01498F8C0300600D
Signing: production
Lock state: Unlocked
Tell me, how to install a stock firmware which can be updated easily, tell me step by step, so that i can understand and follow it easily...
really doesnt get any easier than straight from GOOGLE
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
But, i am really confused, which image to install...i have tried few and they all failed when i try the first command in fastboot mode, it gives me error like exceed buffer size, please help me to choose which is the right update for me...
I believe that the relative error in fastboot is related to the fact that it was not flashed the correct bootloader present in the stock rom downloaded from Google ... following the efrant's guide, step by step, and the order of operations, should no longer give back the error and then allow properly flash the stock rom.

This is not an international gsm device, so the factory images will not work I believe, since it requires another radio, and neither will the OTA update.

what is the solution then, should i sell it? please guide me...and there is another problem that my nexus screen is showing some icons on its background that are slightly visible when the screen is white or anything which uses white color, is it a screen issue? or software problem...?
Screen burn in. A quick search suggests that any gsm image would work on the docomo version (takju, yakju). What does the phone say as far as device if you go into Maps > settings> about? It seems he could fastboot flash everything except the radio..

my platform in maps is: samsung maguro- galaxy nexus
and version: 6.4.0 (#6040015)
gmm-android-google
what about my screen problem. why there are slight icons whcih are noticeable when the screen is white and it shows that there are icons on the background.
Immediately below your platform, it should say what firmware your device is running (yakju, yakjux, yakjuxx, etc.). Im just wondering because i know all yakjus are convertible. But i guess just knowing its a maguro is detail enough. As far as screen burn in, turn down your brightness. I never run mine above say 40%.

Well, when i got this phone, it was like this, i did not noticed screen burns when i was buying it, can i do something to fix those screen burns myself, i dont want to spend money to replace the led screen?
Secondly, help me i dont understand much what is radio or baseband or whatever, i just want to use jelly bean...tell me how to update it, please
Again, turn down your brightness. And you already mentioned the only thread you should need: efrant's return to stock thread. If you don't understand something, keep trying to learn before you mess with your phone.
Hello good day, i have a Samsung SIII i747 and dont show emai and baseband have a
build number: imm76d.i747ucalg1
android version: 4.0.4
what can i do in this situation?? Explain me with more details.
I just restore factory... and no response of signal, but all the rest of functions runs ok!!!
Thanks all
When you say you restored factory, I'm assuming you mean factory reset and not flashing the stock firmware, is that correct. And do you mean imei when you wrote emai?
The first thing you need to do is Flash the stock firmware via Odin. That often resolves these problems.
Beyond that I'd need more information on how the problem occurred to begin with.
