Bricked Galaxy Nexus~REWARD

I have a galaxy nexus that is stuck on the google screen and boots to download mode and fastboot but not recovery. I have tried reverting back to stock with fastboot and odin but no luck. I am offering 30 dollars via paypal or anything for whoever can fix it.

Suggestions: (You aren't bricked)
1.Uninstall Redownload Drivers for computer
2. Try a different USB port on the computer
3. Try a different USB cord
4. Restart Computer
5. After doing all 4 above boot into download mode. make sure you have a good tar file and use odin to go back to stock
No reward needed if you fix it with above
A thanks would suffice

oh wait, what version of galaxy nexus do u have? I linked to sprint galaxy nexus thread..
Sorry

If you can get into bootloader and download mode, you certainly aren't bricked. If you're in bootloader mode, use fastboot and the factory restore images to get your phone back to stock. Then restart and see if your phone works. From there, go back to the rom/kernel/recovery you were using before.

Cold you give me the link for an entire package also i have noticed an error on the bottom of my fastboot screen and it says "Fastboot Command Read Error -2147483647"

No need to use heimdall or whatever, just try flash a recovery through fastboot and tell us if its successful, if it isn't what does it say etc.
If you can boot into the bootloader then it should be straight forward to fix your phone.

Are you completely stock?
Clockwork mod recovery.
Maybe if you get that to boot you can flash a rom from there.
Otherwise try flash the factory images through fastboot.

[Q] Please Help, very big error on my part

Hey guys, I'm new to the HTC one, and I made a mistake. I accidentally formatted my device, the sdcard, firmware, and data, and I'm unable to mount the sdcard and data. I have clockworkmod recovery installed, and the bootloader unlocked, but I'm unable to do much else. When I attempt to flash a rom using sideloader, the screen will just reboot several times. I tried two different roms, CyanogenMod and Stock Rom, by either installing through sideloader or adb, but again, I can't see my SD card. I need help.
How can I fix my phone at this point? I'd be okay with either Stock Rom or CyanogenMod, I just need my phone working.
Please give a newbie a hand guys.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know, but maybe try loading this by following the directions. Maybe you formatted the actual OS completely? This will get you to CM and then from there hopefully flash again

Also, try rebooting JUST the recovery, because then your SD shows up again.

Can you walk us through your steps of sideloading? Wondering if you're doing it correctly.
Also, you should reflash the recovery so that you're 100% positive it is for the VZW One.

Sure, I boot into recovery and use the command adb sideload "zip file here" and get the loading progess percentage and then it loads on my phone, yet it doesn't work right. Also, for some reason, my phone's bootloader has "relocked" when I know for a fact I avoided that command for fear of ruining my chances to fix the phone, now if I attempt to flash recovery to double check, I'm told its not allowed and it fails.

Important: the flash process halts at around 75% to 90% on phone screen! This is normal and a safety precaution!
The last few percent is the reboot, which is NOT happening automatically, so you get a chance to check the console output before reboot to make sure it is safe to reboot

To answer your other question, the firmware was one of the many things messed up. Flash attempts of the stock firmware were unsuccessful.

You don't need to flash the stock recovery.

The RUU flashes stock recovery. You can skip the first portion (ADB shell) and the last (write secure flag) in the instructions above.
Basically, just start at
fastboot oem rebootRUU

problem with that.

Deleted Recovery mode and OS. How to recover?

I tried to install an 2.10.401 RUU via the SD card method, but the zip was corrupt and didn't work. Now I can't go to the recovery mode, it shows a red triangle, and my phone can only boot to the bootloader and to the download mode.
I tried to install a TWRP recovery, but when I type
Code:
adb devices
into the command prompt it doesn't show my phone.
Is there any method to get my phone back?
Any help is appreciated!

Use fastboot, not adb. Adb only works in adb mode through the ui.

Thank you all for the help, I flashed the stock recovery, then TWRP via fastboot. My phone works again

Yo bro. I'm using an htc u ultra. In the process of flashing twrp. After saying it was successful. When I go to the recovery mode of my phone. I see like a phone sign. And then after that my screen goes off. And the only way to bring back my phone to the bootloader is by giving the command. "adb reboot- bootloader ". And then I can go back to my phone normally. I can't access twrp. Idk if I even installed it correctly. But I followed all the steps. And everything. But no result
This says I deleted my recovery and idk what to do. Please guide me

Messed up? Can't access fastboot at all

SOLVED! See my last post on How-To
So, I can't access fastboot. At all. I've tried the following:
Power+Up - Nothing
Boot to fastboot from stock Recovery - Nothing
Boot to fastboot from OS (Advanced power menu) - Nothing
Boot to fastboot from All in One Tool - Nothing
Tried from 3.2.8, and 3.2.7, same result. I have an unlocked bootloader, but that shouldn't matter. And I can't lock it either, since I have no fastboot access.
I can access stock recovery, but have no way to install TWRP.
Please help!

Sideload is used to flash stock zip. It still refuses to boot into bootloader mode.

Try adb reboot bootloader?
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

I did notice something weird. Whenever I'm in stock recovery, and ask to boot to Fastboot, the phone vibrates twice. It seems it's trying to boot into fastboot/bootloader, but fails, and then reboots (second vibration) into the "this phone can't be trusted" image.
Unsure what that means, other than something for sure is corrupt. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Firmware upgrade encountered an issue

While flashing a stock rom on odin and it got interrupted, the error showed after rebooting. I have tried with kies but it only keeps on disconnecting when plugged in. It no longer allows me to enter into download mode.
I know that there are threads here regarding this issue, but there is no solution that worked for me.
Please help me I have tried every solution that I have found based on different samsung devices. Nothing works for me.
SM-T210

What device is it? On older devices like my TAB3 the error screen that you get that tells you to use kies to fix is download mode and Odin should recognize it. I've tried a few things that have left me in this situation.

Thank you for replying. The model device name is SM-T210. Yes, Odin can still recognize it but no luck on kies. Did you fix yours?

Yes, i have a 210R. I've done this many times. What I always do use odin to flash @gr8nole's TWRP recovery. Then in TWRP either restore a backup or download my custom ROM and install it in TWRP. (I did my ROM off of 210 firmware so it would be compatible with both the 210 and the 210R)

Yep that's the one. Honestly, it should work either way...since no OS is installed if you try to boot it should automatically reboot to TWRP.

Sorry. I have no knowledge about Adb. But I'm willing to learn.

First let's go ahead and retry your stock firmware with Odin. If it is successful, you can reflash TWRP and then try my ROM or just run stock. If that doesn't work, then we'll try adb. After your odin flash, even if it fails, if the splash screen comes back, you can flash TWRP and then enter recovery.

Theres no problem in flashing. Everything is fine but it still returns to the error.

Hmm. Is it the correct firmware? I'm gonna go ahead and prepare you a file that will have adb, fastboot, and a cmd window. I'll upload it shortly, just extract it into a folder on your desktop or somewhere where it is easy to get to.

Here is adb. After you extract it, open the cmd window and type adb devices with the tab plugged in. Hopefully it will show it.

The adb that you gave me didnt work. It says it lacks .dll. So I downloaded this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
I dont know if that works. and I tried adb devices.
