Hello guys, I need your help with the Gnex.
My friend gave me the phone hoping that I can do something. It stucks on nexus logo while booting. USB debugging is turned off, cwm or twrp is not installed. All I can is to enter Android system recovery with the following options: apply update from adb; apply update from usb drive; wipe data factory reset; wipe cache partition.
I've tried wiping cache partition but is doesn't help. Please advice whether wiping data/factory reset will delete the data from internal SD card - I am afraid to lose the photos.
Please advice what should I do to extract data (photos) in my situation?
Thanks in advance to everyone.
Sync???
were photos synced to google????

I don't think that anything can help you except that tool because as you are saying that USB debugging is not enabled

before using device too much, quick go to galaxy nexus general section here, and find thread "internal data recovery, yes we can"
you might be able to recover deleted photos.
the way it works when you delete things, is it just tells os that the space isnt being used, so the actual data might still be there and some may still be recoverable.
it is quite a process though. good luck

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I'm trying to recover. By the way, do you know what does the phrase from the recover guide "ADB (make sure adb.exe is in your path)" mean? Which path?

The directory from which you are using adb command
As an example if I am using cmd and typing this command then it should be like
E:/>adb fastboot *********
Then my adb file must be in E drive

Thank you for your help. I've followed to step 6, but unfortunalely, RAW file is 0 b after creation. I've tried different numbers in this name mmcblk0p12.raw - but with no effect.. Tried to reinstall cygwin, used NetCat file insted of NC - all the same.
Maybe anyone faced this problem with 0 b size of the RAW file? Maybe it's because I have less than 15 Gb of free space on my disk C?
Would be grateful for your advices.

I'd like to try explaining this a little better. Basically when using a program from the command prompt in any OS the OS needs to know where the program is (this is not just for command prompt, but I digress). There are a few ways of telling the OS where the program you want to use is located.
For example, lets say you have ADB in the folder "android_stuff" on your E drive.
Option 1: Change Directory to the folder, IE: "cd android_stuff"
Option 2: Provide the "full path name" of the program, "e:\android_stuff\adb"
Option 3: Add the folder location to the system "path"
Options 1 and 2 are fairly easy and straightforward, whereas Option 3 can be done in a few ways.
My suggestion is to go with Option 1, its the easiest and all you would have to do is put all of the files you will be using into a single folder.

Hi all! This is just my 2 cent for sending (in easy way) files to android, when you have format your sdcar, and you do not have an operating system installed
>> A very big thanks to developers of Galaxy Nexus Toolkit <<
1) Boot your device into Recovery Mode
2) Start Galaxy Nexus Toolkit (you need the drivers on your computer)
3) Connect your phone to PC
4) Copy your Rom or other files in "C:Galaxy Nexus ToolKit\put_files_to_push_here"
5) On Galaxy Nexus Toolkit, select "13 - Push Files to Device", now write "2", and then, "YES"
6) Write the name of file, WITH the extension (for example, gapps.zip)
7) The software asks you where to transfer the file, write /sdcard/ and wait
8) At the question of whether to assign permissions, write NO
Now you can flash your rom, or do anything else.
This is all, I hope it can be useful to all those who have rash about adb shell :laugh:
Adb push [final directory] [filename with extension]
E.g.
adb push /data/media/0 gapps.zip
Not rocket science, any anyone who cannot even comprehend what's in the toolkit should not even be flashing ROMs and other stuff, least the HALP threads in the Q&A.
Good effort for the thread though.
Beamed from my Maguro.
Easy ways to do that is using TOTAL COMMANDER with adb plugins installed.
Only drag and drop file that you need to copy....

Easy way? Mastered Android? WTH? Fastboot/ADB ARE the basics, don't think that, because you can follow instructions or a help output, you've mastered Android.
It's WAY more difficult to help someone when they're not entering the commands themselves.
And not to mention that this topic, HAS BEEN discussed a ZILLION times.

Rooting Ascend P1 U9200 B315 EUI1.5 JB v4.1.1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyone wanting to root there Ascend P1 U9200 phone after the new firmware update, here are the files, and info you need, to do so...
First off, plug UR phone in switch it on and let Windows search for the driver, Then click "Let me choose..." or "browse for it..." or similar. Then select "Let me choose which driver to install", then click "list of drivers" or similar, Then click the one near the top that has adb or similar in the title, it don't matter if you choose the wrong one, it just means it wont connect and you'll have to redo this part again and pick a different driver.
Remember!! You MUST run these commands as Administrator.
1. Download the files below, extract them to a folder, preferably one without any spaces in the path, i.e.. C:\U9200Root\ should do perfect.
3. Right Click the "Click-To-Root-U9200.bat" file and under compatibility options click run as administrator or the like.
4. Run (Double Click) the Click-To-Root-U9200.bat (As Administrator!) (or right-click then, "run as administrator...")
4. Reboot your fone and click yes on your fone to install SuperUser.
that's it, your rooted
for those wanting to do the commands there self...
1. Download & extract the files to C:\U9200Root\
2. In the CLI type: "C:\U9200Root\adb reboot bootloader"
3. Then "boot TWRP.img"
4. Then Restart your fone and choose yes to install SuperUser
PS if you've not got much space left in your system partition you may have to delete something from /system/app/ to make space for the SuperUser files.
REMEMBER the space reported on your fone by android is the space on your data partition/memory & sd card and not the system partition!
You can check how much system data etc space you have left from terminal if u have it installed, or on the TWRP recovery which you will have just installed.To do this, Reboot the fone holding the Vol. Up Button, click on advanced then terminal then type "df -h" without quotes if system partition is less than say 10-20mb free then delete maybe, uneeded languages?, chrome.apk?, GSM_Maps.apk? or the like, then reinstall them to the /data/app part later. Since many of these apks get updated and the old ones left undeleted in /system/app/ anyways, I always move the system apks updates from /data/app to /system/app/, makes things a lot tidier and saves a lot of space both in /data/app and /system by not having two of every apk file youve ever updated just remember to copy the libs to /system/lib(s)
Anyways hope I helped someone with this...
cheers John -G-

Hi
After adb reboot bootloader you can also install CWM with fastboot :
fastboot flash recovery clockworkmod.XXXX.img
With CWM you can backup your phone (always a good idea )
After rebooted in CWM install SU with any zip file (ex : SU___Busybox_1.20.2_Flashable.zip )

How to remove TWRP...? I want to update U9200-EM-UMTS-V100R00G411D00B336....thanx in advance.
Stuck
My U9200 is just stuck on the HUAWEI logo when you boot it...
And the cmd application just keeps saying < waiting for device >
Any help is appreciated...
with B336 this method doesn't work.
EDIT:
The problem is not in TWRP or CWM; the problem is that there is not enough space in folder /system/app.
From TWRP I went to "Advanced" and then "file manager"; here from the /system/app I deleted all the languages other than Italian-pack (my language), chrome.apk and gsm-map.apk. Then I flashed SU_flashable and after boot-up SU was finally installed.
It seems that the difficulty of obtaining root permissions in all stock roms from b105 onwards is precisely linked to the lack of space in the / system / app.
I hope to be helpful to those who find themselves with the same problem.

Hello,
I was trying to edit my note 3 settings.db file to add the MobileData toggle at the notification panel.
After I edited the file, I rebooted the phone and Now I am stucked at the Tmobile 4G lte screen.
I have saved the original settings.db file so I can replace the modified one but the problem is that now that the phone doesn't turn on I can't replace it.
Is there anyway to fix this without installing everything from zero again???
Thank You
P.s
I tried to boot in safe mode but the phone doesn't boot even like this.
I tried to wipe cache, but nothing changed
As for the recovery mode, I can boot there
Boot to recovery and use adb console from your pc to swap the files. Learn some Linux command line commands if you don't know how. Primarily you will use cp target.file destination . file. Make a backup if you want via mv.

Another question, as I am not managing to over pass this error close message from adb.
If I install 4.4.2 again from download mode will I lose my settings, applications and everything else that I have installed before???
Odin doesn't wipe anything, but the re install would overwrite much of your personalizations. Boot into recovery, do a nandroid backup, then boot into download and Odin and restore. When you're up again, download nandroid manager from play store and select what you want to restore from your nandroid backup you made. Be sure to save it in a persistent partition, external SD if possible.

Adb, like I suggested first. Look on YouTube if you're not sure how to use it.

I don't know what went wrong but since you don't have a reply I'll say this... I would start from scratch. Download the tot file AND dll again to a new place on your PC (like desktop). Run LG flash tool again and browse to those 2 files (flash tools likes to remember previous settings). Flash again and let us know the result. Sim card doesn't make a difference.
http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/LS980/Stock_Firmware if you need it, always flashed reliably for me.

Yeah but he has basically access to download mode and fastboot it seems. I haven't found a way to push files without at least recovery
Well, if he has access to stock recovery should be able to push files that way through ADB

I have a recovery I made using twrp saved to my pc, and I chose the option to backup my efs, so all of my info is on my pc in the backup file.
HOW can I use adb sideload or ADB to push it to my phone???
HAS TO BE DONE FROM STOCK RECOVERY ADB, as i cant even get into the ui long enough to activate usb debugging

It will take a bit of reading but you will learn a lot!
Here's a guide with some commands, you just need to tailor it to your needs/paths, it says Samsung but all you need are the commands.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2141817
If you have ioroot on your computer you have ADB. Plug in your phone in recovery mode and check device manager. It's probably under "unknown" as LG-LS980. You need to right-click and select "update driver", then manually select driver. From the list, you should be able to find something like Android composite ADB device. Select that one and it should then be recognized as ADB.
Hold Shift and right click on the ioroot folder and select "Open command window here", then in cmd type "adb devices". If all is good you will get a serial number as it detects your device. Once you got this you are ready to enter commands, check that guide for the right command to push the file to: /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/
as stated by Autoprime here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451390
I hope that's enough info to get you going. You should type "adb shell" first in ADB so you have access to root.

Oh crap... I just re-read that. I don't think this will work if your backup is from TWRP. That needs to be restored from TWRP. Do you not have a backup from ioroot? That contains the img files you need.

Ok, I found this...
"Even though all TWRP backup files carry the extension .win, they are either tar archives or filesystem images. System, data, cache and .android_secure are backed up as tar archives or gnu-zipped tar archives if compression is enabled. You can rename those .win files to .tar (.tar.gz if compressed) and extract them like a regular archive. Boot and recovery partitions are backed up as .img files using dd"
from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694617
I couldn't find out if TWRP backs up EFS to .tar or .img. Once you figure that out you should be able to rename them to modemst1.img and modemst1.img. I just verified on mine that the files are the same size, so I would guess they are actually img files and not compressed. They should be 3MB in size.
There's a lot more info in that thread by Autoprime that should help.
Hello, so I am currently rooted on the January update and decided to update to June's update and reroot.
I downloaded the official full image and tried to flash it using the flash-all command. But I am getting this error I MOST be doing something working. Any ideas or a quick guide on how to update and root June's update !?
Thank you

Did you extract the files first from the factory image and place them in your SDK/platform-tools folder?

Looks like you are using sdk/platform-tools. Are you also using a Mac laptop?

No , windows 10 .
I know the device is being detected in fastboot mood by the computer. It might be something to do with how I am currently rooted. Most "how to " instructions only talk about partitions _a and _b.
Put a space between bootloader and C:\

there's no such fastboot command "flash_other", you don't have to flash bootloader to both partition.
use googles release of sdk not the entire thing
fastboot flash-all
and bam
You can also go straight to your platform-tools folder and double click the flash-all.bat file to start the installation :good:

Do you have all the files you extracted from the factory image inside the platform-tools folder?? Especially the large secondary zip that has all the images?

If still no luck, download this from Google: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Download another copy of June update in case first was corrupt.
Place all Tools files plus unzipped June update files into one folder. Make sure your usb cable is an oem Pixel cable.
Use Windows command prompt instead of Powershell. Type fastboot devices with phone connected in fastboot mode.
If you get a serial number, double click on flash-all.bat. It oughta run fine.
Okay so i have doing this fine but i can't seem to update as well
I use window latest platform tools all files in one directory where i open the cmd
Here is what it says @Badger50

It sure looks right, and I know you've done this before. What happens when you shut the phone off and then enter bootloader manually. I know it shouldn't matter, but what the heck. That's exactly what I do every month, I never boot into fastboot from the OS and adb ?
