2. Open sn.bin, it will look like the above, type your serial number at the place of "JBXXXXXXXXXXXXX". Don't edit anything else.
3. Save the file, rename it to ".sn.bin" and copy it to your sd card.
4. Make a backup of your data (not recovery backup) as we have to flash the stock ROM
5. Flash the TWRP or ORFOX recovery if you haven't already.
6. Then take a backup of Persist Partition on SDcard or copy it to your PC.
7. Flash the X01BD flashable persist zip file downloaded early. Flash it directly as a ZIP file.
8. Mount the persist partition.
9. Copy the ".sn.bin" file to the root of persist folder. (for noobs - copy the file to the inside of persist folder.)
10. Flash the stock from either Android 9 or Android 10. No need to relock the bootloader. (Note- for flashing pie ROM, TWRP 3.3.1-0 or ORFOX R10.1_14 only works. Later versions won't work)
Your Serial Number should have been restored now. You can return to any custom ROM now, the Serial Number will be retained. Just don't format the persist partition

Galaxy Nexus [I9250] easy to flash stock factoryImages without lost SDcard data
Everyone know flash factory images gotta lost sd card data in I9250
So we need backup sdcard,that be nausea
Here is the easy way to keep sd data

2 Unzip tgz file which one you downloaded
Eg. yakju-jro03c-factory-3174c1e5.tgz ,unzip it and find the image-yakju-jro03c.zip
3 Open image-yakju-jro03c.zip, and delete the userdata.img
[This img using for cover your /data,sdcard mount on /data/media in i9250]
4 Begin flash,your can found flash-all.sh in unzip folder
don't use it
flash BL: fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primelc03.img

There is a -w in flash system command . check on fastboot ,-w will **** your /data
So we use fastboot update image-yakju-jro03c.zip to flash system
Cause didnt wipe data ,so flash a CWMrecovery which one wont wipe /data/media
then use CWM to wipe data
Everything done!
Enjoy!
Thank you for this useful post.. :good:
Is this method works with upgrading to 4.2.2? i read some articles about problems in this version with the SDCARD folder permissions and multi-user stuffs? have you tried it befor?
another question.. i had now a soft-break because of an App "Font Installer ★ Root ★" but i made backups using recovery to SDCARD folder, but i can't pull them out as you know without starting up the device in ADB mode.. and i had 4.2.1 (Officially with root access and unlocked boot-loader) is it safe to do your method without any lost of my data in SDCARD folder? or there's another method?
Best Regards.

[RECOVERY + ROOT] 2016 P8000 6.0 (Also known as European B-version) PhilZ v2 and root

Be careful: this is for the new 2016 of the P8000, which I believe is only available in Europe. That version is known as "P8000 6.0"
I have been trying to port PhilZ v2 to the new version and although it still has a few bugs/problems, at this point it at least allows you to root your device.
Download (recovery + root):
https://mega.nz/#!kUFBmSDb!RW3sTDPA-imxcNQihCiTfnsXAw_e0Fy-9djliPbxavo
(If you need scatter file, it's attached to this post)
To root:
1. Put Beta-SuperSU.zip on your internal memory
2. Download SuperSU from the Play Store
3. Turn off phone and flash recovery
4. Immediately boot into recovery (don't go into Android first or the recovery will be gone)
5. Choose flash zip from sd card
6. Select the Beta-SuperSU.zip
7. Reboot phone to Android from the menu (if the recovery asks to install root, choose no!)
8. Rooted
The recovery is now probably gone from you phone, because it resets to stock every time you boot into Android. If you like to keep it, rename /system/recovery-from-boot.p to recovery-from-boot.p.bak using ES File Explorer in root mode or something. Then flash the recovery again in SP Flash Tools.
Known bugs for recovery:
- ADB (plugging in cable) crashes recovery
- No access to external SD card, that's why you have to flash root from internal memory
- Touch not working

Fix IMEI on P8000
Thanks to users @FrauHofrat and @ardrift

With a lot of thanks to user ardrift:
with *#*#6813#*#* entered on the stock dialer you can acess the "IMEI-Tool" which allows you to enter a new IMEI for both SIM cards. The new IMEI stay permanent even after reboot and this also works on 'old' P8000.
first I thought this is a joke but actually it worked - sometimes life can be so easy

So you are saying that this tool isnt compatible with other phones? Is the Device list updated over the years or what?
Please give us the tutorial and link of downloaded files that needed to flash in this Phone, I'm having a hard time to understand How this thing work

[Guide] Unbricking P20

So I kinda bricked my phone when trying to go back from Beta 9.0 to Latest Official. So I decided to give some kind of guide to try and assist the people Who also got stuck. Beware that I couldnt get ADB to work as it kept complaining about drivers which I couldnt make work but it was due toe phone being bricked. If you can get into ADB and have TWRP already loaded then you can simply transfer the three files from below to your phone and follow this guide with the below three files. It works perfectly : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
If you have the same issue as me then follow the following procedure :
I have the Dual Sim EML-L29C185 (How do I know this?) Well at first I didnt so I had to figure out. So let look at the following :
EML-L29 - Dual Sim Model
C185 - South African Region Model which you can get from the following post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/8-lite/how-to/huawei-regional-codes-t3740473
So now that you know the model number go to this site and type in the model number eg : eml-l29c185 and you will get a list of firmwares for your phone : https://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=eml-l29c185&firmware_page=0

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Click on the file list and in the example below you will see 4 files but only need three. The EM09 and L29 have the same update.zip and same update_data_full_public.zip but different EML-XXX_hw_meafnaf/update_full_EML-XXX_hw_meafnaf.zip files so get the three files you need for your model.
Now download the Huawei Multitool from here : http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=759172&st=0#entry51396624
and The update.zip extractor from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
We need to manually flash all the broken image files in the phone with the Multitool but the files we need to flash are inside the update.zip file and thats why need the extractor.
So unzip the update .zip file. Then point the extractor to the folder so you can extract the files needed by the Multitool.
The following Three files need to be flashed
System [Called System.img]
Boot [Called Ramdisk.img]
Recovery [Called Recovery_Ramdisk.img] make sure it is in the folder and rename it correctly. Mine was recovery_ramdis.img without the K so had to rename it otherwise multitool wont flash it]
You can also flash it manually without multitool with the following commands :
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img
Start your phone in Recovery mode : Switch off. Hold vol down and keep holding it and plug usb cable in. Or in TWRP reboot Bootloader.
Start multitool and click on the unbrick tab on top and follow the instructions. That worked for me.
After it was done I transfered the 3 downlaoded files to the phone and followed the procedure to make sure all 3 files are flashed because multitool only uses the update.zip file and i dont think it fixed all the region stuff but this procedure did :
