[XOOM][Wingray][STOCK]An easy way to return your XOOM to its *original* state - Xoom Android Development

Well recently I wanted to COMPLETELY redo my XOOM in anticipation of the Jelly Bean update. I've been around Android for awhile now so it was something I'm accustomed to doing and I didn't think it would be a problem. To make a long story short, I did have a big problem and realized there wasn't really one easy, simple, automated way (with comprehensive instructions) to get a XOOM back to its factory state. I tried to solve this a little bit by making a ZIP package to return a XOOM to stock.
Here's a quick rundown:
-ONLY works for wingray (US XOOM WiFi-only/MZ604)
-Works coming from any ROM, etc. as long as your bootloader is unlocked
-Flashes the original factory software that the XOOM ran (yes that's right, Honeycomb)
-Works on Windows or Linux
-Will relock your bootloader and therefore wipe your data - this gets you COMPLETELY back to stock, folks!
There is a more comprehensive list of information and step-by-step instructions in a readme file found within the ZIP (named README.txt). READ IT before doing anything!
Once you do this it will only take 15-20 minutes to run through all the OTAs if you're looking to upgrade to the latest stock ROM. Hope this helps some people out!

Forgot to mention, thanks to Motorola for providing the stock images and Google for the fastboot software!
If you guys have questions, comments, requests, etc. feel free to post them of course!

Thank you very much for posting it! I am about to sell my Xoom and wanted to deliver it stock.
I was just wondering if anyone has tested it as well.
Thanks again!!

I always backup boot and system right after an OTA (need to flash CWM recovery first) - and before applying root.
Prior to taking a subsequent OTA, restore those partitions and let it fully boot - this will overwrite recovery to stock.

Thanks!
In order to get it working I had to reorder the flashing of system and recovery (system first, then recovery), else I got an error.
Flashed it on my Mac by the way. The shell script didn't work out of the box for some reason, but executing the commands in the file with the "./" part skipped and the mentioned reordering it worked flawlessly.

Going to try this later.

You can try this. I believe it's the original Honeycomb that came with the Xoom when it was first released. I say I believe it is because it's been a long time since I've been on stock and I'm not really sure if this is ICS or Honeycomb.But, I did a bit of searching though before posting this and from what I can find, the wifi only version of the Xoom was released in Feb of 2011. If you drill down through the zip and check the properties of the files, you'll see the date modified is March 10, 2011. So, I have to assume it's Honeycomb. If you want to give it a try, I uploaded it to my dropbox. Here's a link to the file. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67672751/MZ604_HWI69.zip
Sorry I can't be sure on this but it's been a long time since I downloaded it. I have things organized pretty good though and it's definitely for the wifi only xoom. I can tell you that.

hello can anyone can upload the everest stock version? thank you!!!

There appears to be a Wingray version in post #10. Do you need cellular capability? If not the Wingray version may work for you.

To install, just follow the Heimdall instructions for your version? Want to make sure before i brick it

for any file you in linux you can get a md5 by:
Code:

also just so ya know when making an odin compatible tar you would do it this way:
Code:
md5sum -t filename.tar >> filename.tar
mv filename.tar filename.tar.md5

Thanks, I just want to restore my tab. Camera doesn't work thanks to the Verizon Tab bootstrapper. Personally I rather have my tab restored to original condition.
So why not just register and download and flash? I just tried the link and it's working fine.

I've been pretty silent in regards to people asking if boush's voodoo kernel will work, or if the bootstrapped will work, until now.
I'm not trying to come off as a **** right now, but come on.
This is gingerbread, the bootstrapper is for froyo, kernels are different.
I have a kernel+recovery, if you need 3g, stick with stock kernel for now, if you use the tab for wifi only, then my kernel + recovery is perfect for you.
If I may, I suggest people read threads, read instructions, follow instructions, and fully understand what they are doing before they flash a device, as it always comes back onto the devs as our fault. If people do not read the title, read every word of a post, then it is not our fault if the end user is impatient and flashes the wrong thing.
I am 1 person working on 4 builds for the sprint and Verizon tablet, 2 builds per tab, plus working on the kernel and recovery. If you can not read all my updates in the active Verizon better than life gingerbread thread, then you end up wasting your time, and mine as I have to reply to the pm, email, or thread asking for help bailing out of a brick, and in that I lose dev time.
Boush doesn't come to xda anymore, his threads should be closed and considered abandonedware, it only creates confusion when it comes to the new people.
Sorry if I came off harsh, but its true. Dan and I are currently the only cdma devs now, time for people to fully read our detailed instructions.

Thanks OP worked great!
Why would you upload mirrors when Google themselves are hosting the files? Wouldn't it be more reliable to just download straight from Google?
Also, I'm assuming that they'll be updating the recovery images for each official update as well... Meaning your mirrors would be outdated soon anyway. Just a thought.
Thanks anyway though, these will come in useful!
Google's package is compressed in tgz and comes with sh script, also doesnt include fastboot windows.
I put all necessary utils together with a bat script so user can just double click and restore.

I'd prefer the Google Images untouched to be honest.
Guys, a little OT question, but I don't want to open a new thread just for a noobish question:
How could one actually brick the GNex? Is it possible to brick the GNex so serious that it won't even get recognized by fastboot?
If not, it's literally unbrickable. If yes, what would I need to do to brick my phone like that? Just wann know so I can NOT do it
will OTA updates works if i flash this image (assuming i've also cloclwork mod recovery)?

You could do what my idiot brother did to my Nexus S. Format /boot from Clockwork mod (under the storage options I believe) and then turn the phone off. The only way to unbrick it is to send it to Samsung, or the guy on XDA who runs that company that uses JTAG to fix it (which is what I did)

Why would that brick the device? Can't you still get into the bootloader or recovery and flash a new boot image?

[DEV][TOOL][BRICKPROOF]TF300 NVFlash release!

After a hard day of extra testing, we're proud to announce Nvflash for TF300.
This release allows unlocked devices to create a set of device-specific files that lets you access nvflash.
Once the procedure is done, you will always be able to recover any software brick (even bootloader!) as long as you keep your files safe!
NOTE:
THIS REQUIRES A NON-BRICKED AND UNLOCKED DEVICE. IT WON'T WORK ON ALREADY BRICKED DEVICES
THIS ONLY WORKS IF YOU HAVE A PRE-JB BOOTLOADER
More details at http://androidroot.mobi/?p=480
Important note: License: Due to the nature of wheelie and the importance of people always using the latest version, Wheelie is NOT redistributable! You are allowed to download it and use it, but you are not allowed to redistribute it in any way - this means no GUI's including it, no reposting zips/tar.gz's and similar! At a later date, we will be releasing our source code and relicense it as GPL.

Nice, I'll have to give this try. Its good to have a safety net.
So once I have generated the files and have NvFlash working, would I be able to then flash the new JB from Asus and then use the NvFlash files to go back to ICS bootloader?
PS: This thread should be pinned.

Yes! Once you have these files, you can move back and forth between any rom/bootloader you desire. ASUS can do nothing to prevent it once you have the files for your device!
It also essentially makes your device brick proof (assuming you carefully follow our guide and do the backups!), so development gets a lot more safe
Yyyeeeeeahhhhh
THIS IS AWESOME!! Thank you guys so much for all your hard work.
I followed the process as explained in the guide and everything went perfectly.
For anyone there still on the fence... give it a go! The whole process takes 2-3 minutes. Just make sure you don't skip any step of the process and keep your generated files in 3 or 4 different locations (thumbdrive, cloud, external HD and the TF300 in my case).
Kudos to all of you again!
Now I am really pissed that I took the JB updated
Gold job

I followed all the steps to the letter (I think) because everything worked up to and included generated the 5 files (blob.bin, blob.log, bootloader.ebt, create.bct, recovery.bct) which I saved to like 4 places lol, but I can't seem to get into APX mode. When ever I hold volume up and power I just end up in CWM recovery. Am I missing something?

For the desperate LG Escape owners...

Not sure where to post a victory message! After scouring the net over my truly new LG Escape P870, actually newly released to the world in mid-September, for rooting information, I somehow landed on Bin4ry's thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460.
I am extremely happy to say that version 15 did the job! I wanted to post this in his thread, but I'm not allowed to because I'm new.
So for anybody enjoying using this great phone, there's hope. And it's EASY!
Peace, tinkicker.
I tried Bin4ry's as well but it did''t work for me. It kept giving me errors (i tried it like 10 times). I tried both methods (for tabs and the normal) I wanted to post on Bin4ry's and give him the output that I got but I couldnt post on that thread (new user) . Then I found a site, which I am not able to post the link to because xda doesn't let me( new user), but if you google "LG Esteem OneClickRoot" it is the first result that comes up. I tried that one, it also gave me errors and restarted my phone, I thought It didnt work but when I went and looked in the installed apps, for my surprise there was a new app - "superSU". So I opened a terminal typed su and there it was the coveted # sign . Now I need to find how to install a new recovery.
Hey guys, just got this phone today. Tried both of those methods with no luck so I figured why not try the method that worked on the recently ported ICS 4.0.4 for the LG Thrill.
You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31963526&postcount=532
The version 1.6 worked for me. The only problem I had was there was an error reading a file, second time through it worked with 0 errors.
Also there is an update to our firmware from P87010c to P87010f not sure what the difference is.
NO JOY!!!
Okay...I'm stupid. Rooted phone...one wrong move with a system file...yep. Brick.
Fortunately I was 1 day shy of my hardware warranty expiration so new phone. But...now Bin4ry's app no longer works for me! It will NOT root this new Escape!
Tomorrow I'll try MikesTooLz's and see what happens.
Look at your system info, did you get the newer software version? The v10f or P87010f is the update, the one on my phone that I rooted with wkparks method is v10c or P87010c.
If it's the updated version can't say for sure but the link I posted above worked on 2 LG phones that I have, may work on yours.
I suspected the software update--it's the F version--might be the culprit but I didn't know what the original was so I couldn't be sure.
So what can I do? Wait on someone to cover the F update? Could I download the older version, root, and then upgrade again?
Did you try the method posted in the link I provided? You may have to run it 2 times to get it to work. Also some have reported better results with version 1.2 of the root script vs 1.6
What exactly is going wrong? Can you give me a screenshot of the cmd prompt? I will do what I can to help, I have the update ready to go but haven't done it because I want to make sure I have root. haha
Downgrading isn't really possible because the only KDZ I can find is the v10f which I posted in a thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33752762
I'm slowly working on this phone so hopefully we can get a custom recovery going and everything no promises though but, I won't be happy till I can put a custom rom on this phone.
Urabewe, it worked!
I could NOT download v1.6. It would appear to download, virus scan would run, and browser would lock up. When I checked my "extract to" folder, the bin and files folders were there, but none of the .bat files had extracted. I was able to correctly download and extract v1.2, so I ran it, and my phone is now rooted. Thank you for the info!
It ran the first time and failed. Ran the second like you said I might have to, and it completed correctly.
I have the update ready to go but haven't done it because I want to make sure I have root. haha

Does that mean you were waiting to root your phone to see if I bricked mine? LOL!
Now...everybody talks about "install a new recovery". Can somebody point me to or describe the correct procedure/routine/script that I need to follow in order to set my phone up safely like it should be? What apps do I need to fulfill all the correct steps? Yes, I've messed around with a tablet root for a year, but I'm no developer. As far as the technicalities go, I'm pure NOOB. Windows, I understand. Linux, I'm learning. I don't know how to be safe about this and I can't afford to buy another phone if I screw up (wife is watching me closely).
Urabewe, thanks for the help!
Awesome glad it worked. No wasn't waiting for you to brick, just confirm root was possible, and this is nice to know I may just upgrade later then.
Recovery is not possible right now, bootloader is locked and only thing we can get into is download mode which has nothing to do with custom recoveries. Slowly working on it so anything I find will be posted.
Any info I find will be posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33752762 so keep an eye out there.

One Clicks...
I tried two specifically meant for LG phones, and I had no luck with them. I succeeded with Urabewe's posted links though. And yes, as I posted in their thread, v10f IS rootable. Once I figure out how to take screencaps again, or better take live video of the screen, I will get it as more proof. Now to see if ROMs will be possible soon....

Acer A110... Anyone?

Any of the A100 talent, have the A110?
It's a decent machine for the price. It goes for around 150, comes with 8gb internal, expandable to 32g via micro SDHC, 1gig of RAM, Tegra 3 quad core @ 1.2ghz.
Only current issue, no recovery (I believe the recovery and kernel are combined), root method or ROMs available for this beast. There was a root tool for 4.1.1, but some have updated (for better ui enhancements) to 4.1.2, and there's no root option for it.
Just wondering if any of the A100 talent have this, it would be great to see this thing unleashed!
Sorry if anyone is upset about this being the wrong category/thread... Unfortunately, XDA has no dedicated thread for the A110, at this time.

No I went with a nexus 7, no unlocking is a deal breaker right off the bat with me. Plus I heard they didn't upgrade the screen or battery in it, two things I hated about the a100, and were also deal breakers for me.

Unlocking the BL is easy on the A110. I did it with adb.

Then why no root? If its unlocked just flash a rooted stock ROM or something.

Nothing seems to be available, at the moment. I wouldn't know where to begin, compiling from source.

Will it use an update.zip that's been changed if its unlocked?
Sent from my Thrive - Kuroikaze B19
Wouldn't know, there is an os upgrade file on acers page, the same image name as my current version (after updating to 4.1.2), can that be renamed to update.zip, modded and flashed? I've not used a stock recovery before lol.

Then do a quick signature test, add a random file into it then see if it flashes or not. Doesn't matter how big or what it is.

Need to add a new source for the A110 to get developers. Its still a new tab but the down side is the battery sucks and they never change the screen angle. I guess to keep it in the $200 mark. Then again the nexus 7 has no micro sd port, hdmi port, but the screen is so clear and it support otg.

I tried to add the Superuser.apk to the /system/app and SU to the /system/bin, but it gives a corruption error. I'll have to completely unzip it, add the files and re-zip in order to add them.
But to work in the stock recovery, I assume it would need to be renamed to update.zip, and placed on the internal /sdcard?

Did you make it? I am waiting to root my A110 as well.
OK well let's see. Is there a twrp or something for a510? I can see about making a twrp but its extremely risky without some precise information since I don't have one to even look at for information. I'll be somewhat willing to work a little to get it opened up but you'll all need to do the homework and be willing to test it. Recoveries are very dangerous potential brickers.
Or someone that owns one can do it.
Or someone can send me one. I'm not willing to sell my n7 for what I consider a downgrade (battery and screen), especially when I just started working on deving on it lol

I did make it, haven't used a auto-signer on the zip yet. Got a bit busy with family being over, for new years. So no I haven't attempted a flash yet; not that I believe this will actually root the device, as the updater-script/binary won't have been updated.

I'm willing to test/give any and all info you may need. I figured a decent starting point might be from the download on Acers page, but I could be wong. I'm completely ignorant on porting a recovery. There is a dev that wrote a tool kit for the a110, but it only rooted 4.1.1. On 4.1.2 all it's capable of (at this time) is unlocking the BL. Some method of rooting was patched (from what I've gathered so far) in 4.1.2, so the tool kit was using some form of (now patched) exploit.
Update: Some better support in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1915459
For anyone with the A110 who's interested, and stumbled here. Feel free to give support, it will show XDA how many of us own the A110, with the hopes of a dedicated thread for us to collaborate our efforts.

pio_masaki,
Did you run into "loop" files in the /dev/block when using a custom recovery, during early builds for the A100?
Something is changing the devices when the custom recovery is loading, preventing us from even mounting /cache. The devices are listed as loop1, loop2, loop3 etc. Seem familier at all?

Yeah, just get ignored so they don't show up in recovery, you'll see them in android, though.
Iirc I saw its using initramfs or wtf ever Sammy uses, which will require more work on recovery inits.
