You can use a rootkit Like WUGFRESH or NEXUS 10 Rootkit in the Nexus 10 forums here to return to stock or do it manually with ADB, there are also guides for that here at XDA. If you have only flashed a kernel you can also go to the stock recovery and just revert to factory, same thing you did when you unlocked the bootloader.

Is the best way to return to complete stock. You'll need to download Android SDK and add the platform-tools directory to PATH though (not too difficult, there's a few guides around), and then just run the flash-all.bat while your N10 is in bootloader.

Do not use toolkits unless you want to break your N10 without knowing what's wrong with it.

First you'd want to download: http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r21.1-windows.exe and install it
- You'll need Java SDK installed, preferably Java 7 Update 13

You'll then want to run the SDK Manager (a start menu shortcut should exist for it)

You want to make sure that these things are checked:

26HKT

Specifically, the Tools folder (both Tools and Platform-tools), and the Google USB Driver
- One of the packages may already be installed

Install packages, and wait till it's done, then close out of it.

You'll then want to add the platform-tools folder to PATH. Something like:

26HP3


Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings > Environment Variables... > System variables > Path > Edit
- Go to the very end of the text already there, add a ; and then paste the location of the Android SDK platform-tools folder
- My folder location is C:\Program Files\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64\sdk\platform-tools
- Your will either be in appdata somewhere, or Program Files (x86)

Press ok 3 times

Now put the N10 into Bootloader mode, and then plug it in
And then run the flash-all.bat file included in the mantaray factory image (you'll have to extract it)

These instructions are kinda quick, sorry if something doesn't work, but if you get stuck, just ask here :)

Thanks

Hold Power Button for half a second and press vol down. If it says "No command." then you may have a different issue then.

Thanks espionage. I have been working on getting my Nex10 back to stock for too long. This post worked like a charm (I created an account just to say thanks :) ). I haven't figured out how to give you a "thanks" yet but I will when I do

Hi! I am trying to do whatever is necessary to get my n10 able to install directly from ota updates. I unrooted by following instructions that said it would return the device to stock, but ota's still dont work. Someone on xda linked me to this post but I am a bit confused by your post. You have a link to factory images and then you say to download android sdk and add platform tools directory to PATH and then flashall.bat while n10 is in boot loader.

Does this mean that I should first download a factory image? Which one? (i am currently running 4.4.2, so should it be this one?)

Once the factory image is downloaded, if i follow the instructions above, by doing "flashall.bat" does this find the factory image and apply it? Does it need to be in a specific folder on my mac?

when i googled instructions for adding platform tools directory to PATH for mac yosemite, I found these instructions: http://codexpi.com/add-android-adb-p...os-x-yosemite/

Are these the correct instructions?

I really appreciate any guidance you can offer. I have looked all over for clear instructions but no luck so far.
