Error 404 on the google doc link

I posted a question a few days ago asking how to unroot and revert back to stock. I have a physical phone problem with my device and need warranty repairs.
If I follow your post instr then I will end up with the JB OTA stock image, unrooted with a locked bootloader? If so it's the answer I've been looking for!

Does this work on all versions of nexus s?

No it does not work on all versions of ns... as it has the factory image for soju ( i9023 and i9020 international versions. Does the link work ? Where else could i upload a folder ?

It would get your phone to stock 4.1,1 official google image not rooted... as for the bootloader it locks it. But if not you could just use the "fastboot oem lock" comand

Awesome now all the devices are supported I believe! Its handy when you want to go fully stock to check if it is device specific problem or ROM ..or to send it for repair

A script can accomplish anything that a user can accomplish on their own by doing the same commands. If there is a hardware or software error on the device that is preventing it from working the manual way then the script won't work either.

Hi ... yes I understand what you're saying. My phone's problem is possibly the micro USB port, seems to be working poorly. Phone charges but my PC and laptop suddenly don't recognise the device when connected by cable. Bear in mind I did drop my phone in muddy grass (ports got mud-filled) three days earlier, causing latent damage only now seen.
SO b4 I take it for warranty repair need to unroot etc but all methods required a working USB cable ... this method seems to be the answer I need. You agree?

You still need usb for this... you have to have usb debugging on....copy the folder to your computer and click run. It will do the rest with a few keys

So...I have not fully understood the OP's method. I foolishly assumed this procedure didn't require USB connection to my PC (which does not work anymore because PC no longer recognises my device via cable after some likely water damage).
Any idea how I can revert back to stock JB or ICS with a locked bootloader unrooted etc WITHOUT connecting to my PC via cable?? I really need to get this fixed under warranty.
Thanks in advance.

it says "waiting for device" and stops there...why??what can i do??

Learn how to do it the manual way and stop with these IMHO stupid damn toolkits.
Not directed at you or anybody but if you're not capable of installing drivers and unlocking with fastboot etc you have no business to actually have root access/unlocked bootloader etc.

any one can provide me mirrror for both cannot download from 4shared

yes there is a very easy way to do that you dont need to unlock your device for that. go to this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2015467 , download the nexus 10 toolkit and install the drivers , enable debugging on your device, then select root unroot options , from there choose root + install busy box , then select superSU. and you are good to go , root without unlocking or any custom recovery.

absolutely. i havent tried though , but in theory it surely will.

And if a new os comes out all I have to do is unroot right?

From what I've read here, root only works for the primary user. I could be wrong, but you might want to do some more research on that subject.

Sorry harrisfayyaz, but are you sure?
I rooted my N10 some days ago with this tool and tried it without Unlocking. It did not work for me - app told me I have to unlock first before rooting. Just would like to know if I was just dumb or not ^^

Use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003938. It works for 100%. I did it already twice (once on 4.2.1 and then again on 4.2.2). Nexus is rooted, but lock is still there. Run *.bat file without unlocking - it works.

I dont want to doubt what you are writing but the OP from the topic says:
Note: If you are using a retail device, you may need to unlock the bootloader first, using './fastboot-windows oem unlock' (or the appropriate version for your machine, included in this zip). Note that the OEM unlock sequence wipes your device, so consider doing an 'adb backup' beforehand if required!

The op said if you were using a retail device you might have to unlock the boot loader first, did you get yours through the play store?
Sent from my Amaze 4G using xda app-developers app

No, through Amazon from US. So in my opinion you always can try. In worse case if it requires unlock it doesn't root your Nexus.
I also read first post but in next part of thread users noticed that unlock is unnecessary. I tried it twice and works every time

After root, lock your Nexus by NRT.

this method worked for me
however it was a pain to get drivers working, i had to get universal naked drivers
one question, will future otas work?

Should work as long as you don't change system files (OTA checks hash codes of them).
I also used universal naked drivers.

Rooting the Moto X

This is more of a PSA:
In case anyone is curious, the current motochopper isn't compatible with the Moto X. Motochopper seem to able to inject the exploit, but failed to inject SuperSU.
Framaroot doesn't seem to work either.
Just need to wait someone much cleverer than myself to root the device!

I think with how many different variations there are of this phone we'll have some good luck. Patients is the key. It's already a slick phone, rooting will just make it that much better.

Have you tried Motochopper? How do you know the sploit works? If you can get a root shell you should be able to do anyone else you want. I've been trying numerous things, I have a dev unit with an open unlocked kernel but it's way older than the release kernel.

I can confirm that the exploit doesn't work.
Version on the dev userdebug kernel I have is 3.4.0-xline-eng-g7a0ce30-00001-g79a2847 (built Apr 8)
Version on the other production kernel I have is 3.4.42-xline-gfd1a699-00158-g8990abb (build Jul 20)
I need to get a kernel dump of the production kernel before I try the libperf exploit. I'm not holding my breath on it working since a fix for that exploit came out about a month before that build. I've been trying to see get a transparent proxy inbetween the production phone to see if I can locate where the OTA servers are to try and download an image.
I'm able to take a dump of the userdebug kernel if anyone also has an unlocked bootloader and is interested in being a Guinea pig.

Ha! I guess the output from Motochopper isn't exactly accurate (no offense!). Here's a screenshot, whatever the screenshot means .

Any way to flash these on Linux? Ubuntu 13.10 to be exact. I get an error every time I try to flash system. I really, really do not want to install Windows on my computer. Every other phone I've owned, it's been no problem until the moto x. I have fastboot installed from android tools. So I think that's why I'm getting an error. I need the Motorola fastboot which I have, but I don't know how to make it so the terminal uses it instead of the system fastboot.

TLDR; No.
Well, at least you put your thread in the correct (Q&A) forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583529
No definitive solutions in there ^^ other than perhaps a suggestion about Framaroot (by @Irwenzhao). I looked in the Framaroot thread and didn't see the Nexus 7 listed, but that might not mean anything. That Framaroot thing looks kinda like a collection of exploits.
You can not unlock your bootloader with any other method than by using fastboot; gaining elevated privilege from within a ROM is a different matter. But even if you "get root" within a ROM, that will not help you to unlock the bootloader without using a USB device which can speak "fastboot" across a cable. And whether or not you "have root" in the form of "su" in the ROM, or even a custom recovery installed, both of those are irrelevant to unlocking the bootloader.
good luck

Hi, nikkifm...
Well, first thing... you're on the wrong forum... this forum is for the Nexus 7 (2012). You might have better luck posting your question somewhere here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013
But if the second generation Nexus 7 is anything like the first generation Nexus 7... then the answer to your question is probably "NO".
Rooting involves first unlocking the bootloader and then fastboot flashing a Custom Recovery (CWM or TWRP)... both of which require running fastboot commands... from a PC.
But as I've indicated, my knowledge only runs to the Nexus 7 (2012)... so maybe there is some other way of rooting the Nexus 7 (2013) that I'm not aware of.
Anyway... good luck.
Rgrds,
Ged.

are you asking about a N7 (despite your ownership of a VZW Samsung Galaxy S3)?
it is my impression that "stock" 4.4.2 is not available on that device as it just got 4.3 - afaik, the only 4.4.2 available for it is via a CM11 ROM... but that would imply you are rooted.

Hmmm.
Here's a completely off-the-wall suggestion...
... try running fastboot (ARM binary) on a rooted phone connected to the N7 via an OTG cable ... ?

I have no idea if this would work. Might depend on the kernel on the Android device (phone/tablet/whatever) running the ARM fastboot binary. I certainly haven't tried it, so there's my disclaimer.
