qbking I really need some help. I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus 4g LTE that is going to be shut off soon. Is there anyway that i could unlock and put this phone onto a different service??? Such as Straight Talk, Cricket or other affordable prepaid services like that. Thank you so much. I have been trying to find this out, but so far have gotten no responses. Please help. Thanks again.

@mynewtatu That's a good question. to my knowledge I don't think you can.

when i type the "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-tor­o.img it says error: cannot load 'recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-to­ro.img please help

[qbking77]

@Ephflores92 Are you sure the file is in the right place?

every video thus far was great i got to this one & got stuck. when i get to adb push su.zip/sdcard/ part it drops this long code & explanation (basically saying it wont let me put it on the sdcard) also when im in device manager when i open portable devices it come up as Galaxy nexus and when i go to update driver software it stays as MTP Device even if i do it manually. so my 2 questions are Can i put it on my SDCard manually if so how & how am i to get rid of this MTP & work with ADB instead

[qbking77]

@KayJayTeee turn on usb debugging and then transfer the su file over.. then you'll need to get CWM on the phone again and install the zip

I used ur way to install the bootloader but it wouldnt work for me when i tried to root it therefore i used the ONE CLICK method which i saw in youtube. now that i want to unroot it... the one click method wont reset my phone once im in the bootloader... please help AS I WANT IT BACK TO FACTORY SETTINGS because my phone is messing up on me and i want my warrenty back. Im wondering if i reset it to factory setting device... will it unroot it?

Hey you helped me unrooting and flashing stock ROM cause i had a bootloop but last night I flashed a BAMF ROM but didnt like it so i flashed a recovery of the AOKP ROM I liked and it worked but my camera wont open, it continuously force closes so im thinking of flashing stock ROM again to start over but when I go to the step 'fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-toro-primekk15.img' it says cannot load... You did something over teamviewer but i didnt remember what, you think you could help?
