flash this in stock recovery? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I downloaded a flashable zip of dsp manager, can I rename to update.zip and flash through stock recovery?
currently I am running (sprint) stock jelly bean rom JRO03U FH05 rooted (only rooted to flash dsp through cwm) and Ive been noticing data drops for long periods and want to unroot incase I need to go to the store but I want to keep dsp manager and any unroot method I see will wipe it out.
edit: ive found that when I have a lengthy data drop toggling wifi on and off re-establishes the 3g connection. Anyone think they know what my problem is?

Stock recovery cannot flash, you need a custom one for that.
As for your data drops: have you tried verifying your APN settings? Tried a different radio?

ive tried different roms, odining to stock, different radios, and different kernels. are the apns just like your "mobile network type",ip address, MEID, etc? thanks for the response.
Edit: So what you say about the recovery means I cant have dsp manager without being rooted? Or can I flash cwm or twrp by just changing the recovery files and flashing a recovery img without root?

Couldn't you just turn on USB debugging, connect to your PC, "fastboot boot (somecustomrecovery).IMG", and use it to flash the dspmanager.zip?
BTW, to unroot, all you have to do is delete "su" and "supersu.apk" (or "superuser.apk" if you're using that).

usb debugging is on by default on custom recoveries, and it's not needed for fastboot as well.

Yes you can, if a flashable zip of DSP manager exists (I'm not sure). Just boot or flash a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP indeed), and use it to flash the DSP manager zip.

ADB is not fastboot. ADB is an interface provided by Android OS and custom recoveries, Fastboot is an interface provided by the bootloader.

Thanks for all the responses guys. I couldn't shake the data drops on the ota and sprint didn't know what to tell me over the phone so I just backed up odined fho5 complete and data is now working completely. As for not needing root yes I took your advice fast booted cwm, flashed DSP manager then just flashed the stock recovery back.

just one thing: you didnt need to flash cwm, just boot it:
Code:
fastboot boot cwm_or_twrp.img
this way you keep whatever recovery is installed, allows you to try out stuff, without really flashing them.

[HOW-TO] CMW on LTE Version through Rom Manager

If you have any questions, concerns or problems, please post in the CDMA post because I will no longer be checking here.
theboo7 said:
This is a guide on how to get ClockWorkMod onto your LTE Galaxy Nexus through Rom Manager
Go to market, search "Clockworkmod"
Install Rom Manager*
Open up Rom Manager and select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
A pop-up will come up called "Confirm Phone Model," of course choose "Google Galaxy Nexus CDMA"
Now let it install etc, then with a File Manager** with SU access, Go to system, click "Mount R/W"(if using Root Explorer) and then scroll down until you see "recovery-from-boot.p" and rename it to "recovery-from-boot.p.bak"
Close out off your File Manager and go to Rom Manager and select "Reboot into Recovery"
There you go
You should be able to boot into CWM
* Free version works
**I used Root Explorer

Could be because you are on a custom ROM. I am on Android Revolution HD and I don't see it at all as well. I also can directly boot from ROM Manager directly into CWM. I never touched this file at all and I never looked for it.

Then you would follow the steps in the OP
What are the benefits to doing this final part. Is it necessary? Some say they didn't do this? Now on the Thunderbolt I didn't have to have rom manager installed and I could still boot into recovery. Is this the same? If I rename that file (which is in my system directory) will I be able to boot into cwm at any point?
Thanks I have done everything with the exception to this. Wondering if its necessary?
Edit: I guess I should have waited for a response because I went ahead and followed the steps in the OP and it came up with an android with a red triangle. Pulled that battery and booted up ok. Any info I need to be aware of? I wasn't able to boot into recovery from rom manager at first. I can now boot into recovery after reflashing CWM recovery but cannot do anything once I am in it?

Flashing through ROM Manager is just a simpler way to get CWM. And I'm not sure why you would have gotten the red triangle, unless you didn't rename/delete the file in system. And I haven't heard anyone say the couldn't do anything in recovery, so I'm not sure what the problem is there.
When I try and change the file name it says insufficient permissions??
I have root...
Cwm doesn't stick though. I always have to boot reflash recovery and then boot into recovery through from manager..
Any suggestion?

Your file manager doesn't have root privileges, so until you rename/delete the file you won't be able to reboot into CWM

This. I was using astro but changed to root explorer and changed file name. Turned phone off and went into fast boot and then recovery and it worked.
To be clear, I was able to go into recovery before. I would have to open from manager, reflash cwm and boot into recovery.
I was just unable to power phone off and boot into recovery manually. Now I can.

Thanks for the reply. I did rename it the file to .bak following the script to the t! I don't know what happened either. Since then I deleted the file entirely this time and reflashed the cwm seems to work a little better than before an now I can do things in cwm recovery. Hope nothing else goes crazy.

Yeah, that file can cause problems with CWM on LTE, although it's a quick fix, I'm sure it's being worked on for future editions. And since you've been able to flash things, when you use the volume keys to high light options, does it skip one or two every now and then? That's only problem I seem to be having.

JB OTA won't install- says install untrusted zip? in cwm

I started doing the Google framework force stop and clear cache today while on wifi and was prompted after 5 or 6 tries. It downloaded, verified download, rebooted and TRIED to install. About 15% through, it said untrusted zip and cwm screen popped up top and asked 'install untrusted zip?' Of course I hit yes.. why isn't it trusted? Its straight from the carrier. Anyway it immediately said installation aborted. I repeated this process again and got the same results. Please someone help. Now that JB is finally here my phone won't take it???

If you have CWM flashed, you have to manually flash the update -- it won't install over-the-air. If you want to install it over-the-air, flash back the stock recovery then accept the update.

Gnex Toolkit wasn't working because of some missing file... re-installed it and flashed the stock recovery via Gnex Toolkit (I think). Is there a way to check which recovery is running? Anyway, if it is indeed stock, I just got prompted again for the OTA JB update.. it's installing now.... fingers crossed!!!
..OK so now it rebooted... started installing, got about halfway through.. paused, then it went to the stock recovery screen and stayed with a red triangle around an exclamation point! What is happening here?!
I have now re-locked the bootloader and received the prompt for OTA again....
Still won't work for me. I've tried even flashing the stock image and it won't install at all. Actually nothing is installing.
I've never done anything to the phone besides unlocking the BL and rooting and switching to CWM. It seems to have something to do with the SD mount.. nut then again I have no idea.
Where's all the Android gurus at?

You have a couple options here. Two that pop into my head immediately are download a custom ROM make sure it is for whatever device you have I.e. maguro, toro, toroplus. Boot into recovery and follow the directions in the ROM thread to install. Or download the stock images for your device and boot into bootloader and fastboot flash those. There are guides everywhere to do this.
Edit: forgot to mention that in recovery if going the ROM route you need to get that ROM. zip onto your SD card. Do it by mounting SD card in storage and adb push the zip to /sdcard.

Try to format system then flash custom rom.
If not, flash stock images.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
May be a kernel problem.
Get correct kernel and flash it.
or
Get stock image and flash it from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Seems a kernel problem to me rather than a ROM problem. Try flashing another kernel like Franco or Fancy, and then dirty flash your current ROM over it. And ya, don't forget to wipe dalvik cache!!
Happened to me a long while ago and above method solved it for me.

Huh? If you flash a ROM after a custom kernel, the ROM kernel will overwrite the custom kernel.. What's the point?
OP, it's probably data corruption OR messed up permissions. first option is fixing permissions in your custom recovery. Reboot. If that doesn't boot fully, format userdata or reflash stock through fastboot.

I'm so sorry, made a typo there. Here I would like to clarify to OP that first dirty flash the ROM so that any files modified by your previous faulty kernel would be changed and than flash a new kernel over it!!

Paste the exact fastboot commands you're using. I'm not helping a user that uses a toolkit to interact with his device, as I don't know where is it failing.
I installed CM yesterday, it boots but I can't stay with the screen on, if I use it for 3 minutes on my phone reboot. Tonight I will do everything again with the ToolKit, back to stock again but now cleaning all the data and I will relock the bootloader :/ That's really sad.

[Q] Recovery Trouble, Please Help :(

I put TWRP Recovery on my LS970 and tried flashing the Liquid Jelly Bean ROM on and it ended up with just pure stress. Before I flashed it I had wiped the dalvik and normal cache and even factory reset it before flashing and it said it installed correctly. I restarted my phone (and I do have an unlocked boot loader and recovery of course) and it was stuck on the Google unlocked boot picture. I tried flashing it again and Ive used LGNPST and LG Flashtool and none helped. I was wondering if there is a possible solution to this perhaps I could send a flashable zip through my computer? Please help

So do you have recovery or fastboot now? If you LGNPST you should be locked and have stock recovery.

It has TWRP recovery and has fastboot. When I try LGNPST its stuck at 1% and it says verifying files. I waited 30 minutes and it was still there.

Do you have any other roms on your SD? If not, try to adb sideload a stockish ROM. Adb sideload is on first page of this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082084
Edit. Have you tried reflashing your ROM? This time wipe system, dalvic, cache, and data. NOT INTERNAL data. That's your SD.

I only have that and GApps. And for adb you have to have usb debugging on right? I dont.

You'd said you had liquid installed and LGNPST failed, so liquid should still be installed. So in recovery, wipe those 4, flash liquid then gapps and see if it works. Then we'll go from there.

Edit: Well I cant give you pictures but I wiped the four and my phone is stuck on the Google unlocked boot.

So you did the wipes, installed liquid, installed gapps, then rebooted and are stuck. Do you have ADB installed? If so DL this TWRP. http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22909751817929287.
Extract the recovery image using 7zip.
Boot your phone into fastboot/bootloader Then cd to the folder the image is in. Then issue this command.
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
You may need to do this first. "fastboot erase recovery" then "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
If your not comfortable doing this, just google fastboot and you'll find info on how to do it. This thread seems pretty thorough. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41374534&postcount=1
Then go here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36270473&postcount=1 to ADB sideload a Stockish Rom
If this doesn't work then you'll probably end up having to use LGNPST

Thanks but I really dont understand adb. What needs to happen on the phone end in order to use adb? And for the computer?

Read that link above and it explains adb and fastboot
But if you're not comfortable with that then just LGNPST
Go to the teeny bin thread under "Additional info" and follow the LGNPST walkthru.

Oh I forgot to mension that I did flash teeny bot with LGNPST but this cane with the SBL. Should I download a different version and try flashing again with LGNPST?

Ok now we're getting somewhere.
When you used teeny bins, it installed the wrong version of TWRP to use with KK Roms. In your recovery is the version 2.6.0.0?
The easiest way to change that recovery is to use fastboot and install a KK version 2.6.3.3. You can find those in the TWRP thread or the root guide under Working recoveries.
You can also use CWM recovery if you want
So follow what is posted above, install a KK recovery, then you should be able to install Liquid.

I mean I used Freegee to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP Version 2.6.0.0 and from what it sounds like there is a lot of problems with it. Could I flash CWM or a newer version of TWRP with LGNPST?
If you use LGNPST you'll be back to Factory stock. Recovery included. There's no way to install another recovery until to root/unlock

Well do you know any reason why it stays at 1% verifing files? Or any fixes to it?

Are you selecting the right DLL? Using either ZVB or ZVC bin?
Other than that, I don't know. Maybe you need to uninstall then reinstall the LG drivers or LGNPST.

I dont know let me go check. I thought it had something to do with the phone not the dll or bin files.
It must be the bin file because I flashed teeny bin just fine with the dll
Im an idiot. Turns out that the firmware was in a cab file which was supposed to be extracted into a bin file. It got deleted to I downloaded a stock bin from your android file host profile and Im going to flash in just a minute and tell you the results.

No worries. I can't remember where that bin file gets extracted to, but if you're downloading the bin that's fine too. I forgot to mention that ZVC is the most current, but if you have ZVB that's fine if you're gonna run CM/AOSP
