[Unroot] How to Unroot Nexus 10! [Factory Firmware]
- Thread starter zedomax

Is anything here useful to unbrick the tablet?
I'm thinking erase might be helful but what command do I use?
What padest.com posted earlier would technically be all the available partitions to erase:
And technically, then running the commands needed to flash the ROM (Google's own batch file below):

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantalj12.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul
fastboot -w update image-mantaray-jop40c.zip
echo Press any key to exit...
pause >nul
exitShould put the device in a factory state (bootloader still unlocked though). I haven't tried the erase commands listed above myself on the Nexus 10, so I have no idea how it would play out (doing this on my Nexus 7 worked fine though, but I'm a bit curious as to why Google didn't put the erase commands on the batch file for the Nexus 10)
Thank you. I was able to erase running the commands you posted, I then ran the batch file but I am still in bootloop. I noticed the whole process lasted ~10 seconds shorter than the one from the original post, as if something is missing...

I was unable to find the variable t make it work so I went into the Nexus4 toolkit and placed Nexus 10 factory files and then proceeded to flash as if I'm flashing the stock rom and it worked. Don't ask me how but it worked. Thanks everyone.

Same problem I had, bootloop.
From the Toolkit thread:
If that doesn't work, use the erase command to delete all 5 partitions via fastboot command. And if that doesn't work, go here and download the kit, then flash factory images via the toolkit. If you can afford it, donate to mskip, he is an amazing contributor.

erase cache system userdata recovery and boot partitions, type "fastboot erase cache" for example, without quotation marks to erase cache. Then try the method from the first post.. If that doesn't work, get the toolkit from the link
Ultimately, download the toolkit even if you get to recover without using it and donate if you can.

UPDATE:The problem is solved.I tried adb with windows and everything worked fine.Not sure what's the problem with my mac.
I was able to flash the bootloader,but when I did the last step i.e update via image.I get the following
And yes the image files are in the fasboot directory.
Any help?

Flash it via adb on windows.Atleast that's what I did to solve the bootloops.
OMG!! thank you for this method zedo, just finished restoring mines, i chose a mod from rom toolbox where it changes ur frameworks or something like that is a nice screen animation and my table was going crazy, it kept rebooting into recovery, but i just finished restoring it back to stock thank to this method, thanx
I don't know if it changed, but from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mantaray
The batch file
flash-all.bat
contains this:

Okay so here is the solution to you guys have the "ERROR: usb_write failed with status e00002be" on Mac's.
I had this myself and it took me a while to sort it out but this is what you do.
Download the latest Android SDK for Mac build from Google and extract it so you have adt-bundle-mac (I extracted mine to the desktop)
Then go here /Users/Yourname/Desktop/adt-bundle-mac/sdk and copy the platform-tools folder and rename it to whatever you want it to be called say android.
I don't know what they changed with 4.2 but something obviously changed with Mac's since there are 100s of reports with this error popping up with people flashing.
Step 1
~/Desktop/android/adb reboot bootloader
~/Desktop/android/fastboot oem unlock
Step 2 (This is the latest Nexus 4 build im flashing here, I placed the image files from the zip within the Android folder)
cd "/Users/Yourname/Desktop/android"
./fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-mako-makoz10l.img
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
./fastboot flash radio radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.33.img
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
./fastboot -w update image-occam-jop40d.zip
Step 3
~/Desktop/android/adb reboot bootloader
~/Desktop/android/fastboot oem lock
Anyways hope this works for you guys if you're having the same error.
hey, i followed the instructions but after booting and everything, when i try to install the ota update, it reboots and attempts to update but after a few seconds, it gets an error with an exclimation mark in a triangle and the only way to reboot is to fastboot and stock recovery and wipe/reset.
Same problem here.
EDIT :
I find the solution here :

Can someone please upload the stock manta ROM for me ( the same one that is on stockroms.net, used in this video )? The site stockroms.net is apparently down right now ( I can't download anything from them ). I must have the stock ROM tonight so I can send out my tablet for a refund.
EDIT: Nevermind, their site is back up and I'm downloading the ROM now. Ignore this post...

For Windows, type: (XXX may depend on the stock firmware)

*Note – If you do not have radio image, you can skip that one.
*Note for Mac/Linux – If you get permissions error, try “chmod 755 *” before doing all the commands and also try adding “sudo” in front of the commands if you still have trouble.
