[SOLVED] Return to stock? - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am sorry if this is asked earlier but I couldn't find it.
I wanted to go back to stock using fastboot. But I have a pro problem.
I downloaded the factory image from google and extracted it. It shows up as a file and when I rename it to .zip and extract it I am stuck with a boot.img, cache.img, recovery.img, system.img and userdata.img. So I don't have a flash-all.bat and I decided to flash these files manually. But when I started with boot.img I got an error message about my device (yes it showed up in "fastboot devices" and I don't exactly remember what error it was).
So how can I return to stock with fastboot?

You shouldn't have to rename anything. That sounds like a bad download. Redownload it and run a md5 check to be sure.

Well I downloaded it again and it was the same.. But I solved it. I renamed it to .zip and extracted it to my fastboot folder and flashed everything separatly.

It's simple and don't lose nothing.
two questions...can i update from stock 2.1...it it rooted...to 2.3.3 SwiftDroid Project/CyanogenMod 7 (v1.8)
and....in C:\Android....what files must be there to upgrade from stock 2.1 to 2.3.3 SwiftDroid Project/CyanogenMod 7 (v1.8)
at first you need recovery (i think there is a how to in xda) ..... and then .... you will follow the instructions (if you can german, you can look at http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha.../88137-how-android-2-3-fuer-das-lg-gt540.html or google translater can german )

*.img files and TWRP

I'm currently trying out a few kernels on my Nexus 4.
I'm currently running Franco's kernel but wanted to give Harsh's kernel a go.
Usually the kernels/roms I download are ZIP files, which work fine with TWRP, however, Harsh's kernel is an img file.
I found a previous thread that stated TWRP is compatible with img files & they can be installed fine - however - I only get the option to install a zip file. TWRP doesnt seem to be able to see an img file.
Am I doing something wrong or missing something?
Thanks.
IMG files are installed using fastboot. The command is:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Thought so...
However, this thread does kinda makes out that flashing an .img through TWRP is possible.

Thanks for clearing it up.
I do a lot of ROM/kernel flashing away from a PC. So its convenient just to TWRP without the need connect it the phone via USB.

Use a file manager to check to see if you have the Currents.apk in the /system/app directory, if it is missing just copy the attached one to /system/ap and change the permissions to rw-r-r to match the other files. The attached Currents.apk is from the JWR66V file system.

For permissions, if using ES File Explorer, long press on the app, press “more” in the bottom right corner, select “Properties,” then press the change box that is next to permissions. If you are using Root Explorer, long press on the file, and then select “Permissions.”
If you continue to receive errors, I recommend downloading the following stock JWR66V ROM, HERE. You can then pick out each file that you need, or you can just dirty flash it to restore all the needed files.
Attached is that file, you just need to unzip the file, and then change the permission on the file too rwxr-xr-x.

Error in /sdcard/0/ update.zip. (Status 7)". I'm on jrw66y tried to reflash, successfuly, tried 4.4 ota again, same error. I recived two OTA's for 4.3 and had no issues. I can understand errors for apks, but for a stock bootanimation i just can't... Does someone have a idea what next? Thanks in advance.

OK I reinstalled the old android 4.3 factory zip and then updated to the second 4.3 update and then the 4.4 , when I update I'm quarter way, it said error, boot animation has unexpected contents, I need the old boot animation back because when I turn on my nexus it doesn't have the traditional "x" boot animation anymore. I guess this new boot animation is from the JWR66V factory zip for rooted devices you gave me from before. Can you please give me the old boot animation file, I hope this is the only error I'm gonna get.

Now You have same issue as i do. I tried to dig it from several roms but in vain - couldn't find appropriate. Next question is if i get that file, can i put it to /system/media w/o root. I think i can't. Anyway @GoldenNexus7, if You aquire that bootanimation pls notice me, I'll notice You if I get it first.

I had the same problem and I solved it flashing system.img an boot.img from factory image. I don't remember the post so I'ill explain you. (For this method you have been bootloader unlocked)
1. Download Factory Image from Google site.
2. Unzip the .tgz file.
3. Unzip the .zip file in.
4. Copy system.img and boot.img to the location of fastboot (i. e. in SDK platform tools).
5. Open CMD in that location (shiftRightClick> Open Command Prompt Here).
6. Write this commands:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Note: Userdata partition factory reset your tablet. Don't flash it!
And that's all. Your Nexus 7 has been updated.

Will the flashing system.img and boot.img wipe the data?
Unlocking bootloader wipes data. Flashing system and boot won't . But, sometimes device won't boot if data is not wiped. Now, as i wage lurking around for a solution or rooting and wipe data, I'm much closer to 2nd solution.

I installed the OTA and I don't know what happened, I got stuck on the Kitkat logo screen (boot animation). I am unlocked and have CWM installed. Now I can't get past that screen. I can access adb and also CWM recovery.
I am also planning to try this method now. Is it okay if I have CWM Recovery installed? Do I have to remove it in order for this to work?

Not sure if it would make a big difference, it will probably give me a different error once I try to update to 4.4 again.

The Factory Image include 4 files: boot.img, system.img, userdata.img (this wipes your data) and recovery.img (if you use a Custom Recovery, you don't have to flash this, if you don't, you must to flash it. In addition, your recovery isn't important. You only have to reboot your device in bootloader mode (Turn on pressing Power+VolUp+VolDown) and connect it to your PC.

Going from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2

Hi there, I'm currently rooted with 4.2.2 and I want to upgrade to the latest which I believe is 4.4.2, after a brief check I don't see the toolkits supporting this so can someone give me a clue on what to do? Is it upgrade to 4.3 then 4.4 and finally 4.4.2 or can I just jump from my current to 4.4.2?

If your on stock ROM and kernel and recovery just check for updates under about tablet system updates. If your running a custom ROM or kernel then you'll want to get to stock first. Also you can just download the factory image and adb flash it. Just search how to install 4.4,2 factory image with adb on nexus 10. There's plenty of guides.

Just update and root again. It takes a minute using one of the toolkits. Or you can just flash the super su zip which is even quicker if you have a custom recovery. Either way it's easy and quick

I can't use system updates, it won't restart after counting down from 10 it just hangs there. I also don't think the toolkits have 4.4.2, I'm pretty sure I downloaded the right files, I just don't know the commands to use in CMD.

Wugs toolkit has it.
Extract it and put it in the correct folder with Fastboot capabilities and use the commands
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (this'll give you stock recovery)
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img (only do this one if you want to completely reset and delete everything on your internal SD card. Don't do this step of you want to keep your files like pictures and music on SD card)

Okay, going to try Wugs. Ah, I'm mistaken then, I just have the factory image and update superSU zip files.
See this is what I don't get, it asks me my build, which is 4.2.2. And then asks to download the image, but I want 4.4.2 so do o just change it to that?

Yeah. Choose 4.4.2. Asking your build is just so when you flash kernnel and recoveries it flashes a compatible one. But since your just flashing stock images. Just do that. But again remember it'll wipe everything so backup your SD card to a computer first

If you use Wigs toolkit you can flash the new update if you do a complete restore with in root. Then you can re root. Just go to flash stock + unroot then click the images drop down down box. Pick the mantaray-manta : android 4.4.4- build KOT49H then click the button that shows automatically download. After install re root and restore. Backup everything first it makes a quicker restore.

First, go download the image:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
While that is downloading, make a new folder on the desktop and name it FLASH, also for extracting the file once it is downloaded I reccomend total commander:
http://www.ghisler.com/download.htm
Also head over to here to download adb and fastboot without the android sdk:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1MWexkzYR_bV2VlaF9UcHVBU00/edit?usp=docslist_api
Once the zip file with adb and fastboot is downloaded extract the files into the FLASH folder. Now that we've done all this the image should be downloaded, extract the contents to the FLASH folder. Now open up command prompt. In command prompt type the following(excluding the quotation marks):
"cd C:\Users\*username*\Desktop\FLASH"
*username* Is the name of the user. Now turn off your device then boot your device into fastboot mode(hold the power+volume up+volume down buttons) once your device is in fastboot mode connect it to your computer. In command prompt type(again excluding quotations):
"fastboot devices"
After that you should see your nexus device in fastboot mode, if you have no important data and don't care about losing everything(me) you can just type this in command prompt(no quotations):
"flash-all"
But if that does not work or you do have important things, type:
"fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”

ADB not working

Recently, I have been trying to install 5.0.1 update, as my phone is rooted, but every time I see "adb is out of date... killing...". I have been trying many times to update using nexus root toolkit and manual way but it doesn't work. Everything else work like putting and taking files from my phone. My phone is on LRX21T, rooted and with custom recovery (TWRP). If there is no way to fix the problem, can someone give me LRX22C flashable zip to flash the update using TWRP?

Recently, I have been trying to install 5.0.1 update, as my phone is rooted, but every time I see "adb is out of date... killing...". I have been trying many times to update using nexus root toolkit and manual way but it doesn't work. Everything else work like putting and taking files from my phone.

Google 15 second adb xda. That'll set up the latest version of adb and fastboot on your device. There is no flashable 22C twrp flashable zip

I said I want to update my phone to 5.0.1 but adb is not working so I can't update my phone using Nexus Root Toolkit and I can't update it manually

You'll get rid of the message if you kill "adb.exe" using Task Manager. But to flash the factory images manually you don't really need ADB. Just power it off, boot into fastboot (hold Vol- while starting it) and follow steps C and D from this guide

Download the factory image from here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images. Extract it using 7-zip or winrar. You'll find the radio.img file and a zip file. Extract the zip file too. In there is system and boot images.
Open a command window in the first folder, the one where the radio image files is. Then
fastboot flash radio radio.img. (note user the full name of the radio image file
Then open a command window in the folder the boot and system images are in. Then
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
You'll be updated to 5.0.1
