You need to set your Samsung Galaxy Nexus to USB Debugging enabled to use Galaxy Nexus TooLKit. Set it in setting,developer options, and then tick USB Debugging. On Android 4.2.2, "Developer Options" is hidden. You need to tap the Build Number 7 times in Setting/About until it says "you're now developer."
NOTE: As the ToolKit.exe and ModsSection.exe files are not Digitally Signed with a Microsoft Certificate they 'may' get picked up as potentially harmful by Antivirus Programs and deleted on first run. If this happens restore the file and exclude it from future scans to use it. This seems to happen mostly on AVG Free and Norton.
Installation of Galaxy Nexus TooLKit:
- Run Galaxy Nexus ToolKit package to install Galaxy Nexus TooLKit to your PC. The installation of Galaxy Nexus TooLKit will also create a Shortcut on your desktop called 'Galaxy Nexus ToolKit' for easy access. You now have the option to include or exclude the drivers files at installation so if you already have your drivers set up and are just updating the Galaxy Nexus TooLKit then you can untick the drivers if you wish.
The first thing you need to do is to install the adb/fastboot drivers. These are needed so that the phone is detected on the computer.
THE DRIVERS CAN NOW BE INSTALLED DIRECTLY VIA THE GALAXY NEXUS TOOLKIT. OPTION 1 IN THE MAIN MENU.
After the drivers have been installed, connect the usb cable. In the Device Manager a new item called 'Android 1.0' should pop up and adb driver should install automatically. Once it is installed you will have a new section in the Device Manager called Android Phone without an "!" meaning its installed correctly.
Note: If the adb driver doesnt install automatically then double click on the Android 1.0 item in device manager, then click on the driver tab and select 'update driver'. Select 'browse my computer' and then 'Let me pick from a list'. If no items appear in the list then untick 'Show compatible hardware' and find the Android adb driver or Samsung adb driver.
To install fastboot driver using Galaxy Nexus TooLKit, shut down your Galaxy Nexus. Keep holding the 'Volume Up' and 'Volume Down' buttons and press the 'Power' button to boot galaxy nexus into Fast Boot Mode. In Device Manager you will see the FastBoot driver installed or if it's not you can install it manually.
