Okay. I have went over threads here and elsewhere about the www and I am still stuck. Turn on my phone and all I see is Google. When I enter bootloader mode I have gotten fastboot status failed and fastboot status okay. I can unlock and re-lock the bootloader but I cannot flash the stock...

I'm sorry. All of that and in the wrong device forum. Should be in the Sprint Galaxy Nexus forum.

The process is very simple if you are just running a rooted stock rom. You can get apps from the play store that will do both, Totally eliminates using a pc. Just make sure you re-lock your bootloader first then unroot your phone.

I am not 100% sure but superboot should root 4.2.2. If you still have to unlock your bootloader try the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit. I wasn't able to root using this method but did manage to get the bootloader unlocked and then used superboot. Just downloaded and double clicked and my Nexus was rooted.

Running ubuntu 12. something something, sorry two os on one device using the other one. Have what should be a rooted android phone. I run adb, adb devices and the device is shown, now adb shell and I geta $ sign instead of a pound (#) sign which means I have root access to the device. Does this...

Video was pulled.

Thanks tube517. Downloaded this last week but still haven't tried it yet. I will let you know how it goes.

Okay. So after a few days of rest and a clearer frame of mind I came across these two tidbits that are supposed to achieve S-Off. Juopunutbear and Revolutionary. Neither of these two applications seem to be the latest and most up to date methods to achieve S-Off it is just that my frustration...

Okay for months I have been trying to root my Evo Shift running Gingerbread 2.3.4 and I have tried quite a few methods with no success. I even paid for an auto root method that dropped a trojan on my pc. Now there is supposed to be a method that will root any HTC phone which I also tried and...
