[Verizon] Problems with Rooting and Data Recovery

I'll try to remember everything involved here.
It's a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with 4.2.2 Build JDQ39. I'm using a real Samsung Cable. Using Galaxy Nexus Toolkit v11.1.0 for rooting. Cygwin, netcat, and Pipe Viewer to push the .raw file to the computer.

A few things are going on here. This isn't the first time I pulled the raw file from the phone. I assumed that the bootloader was still unlocked, and the phone was still rooted. 1) Bootloader is unlocked. 2)Phone is no longer rooted. I tried to root the phone using the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit, but it always says <Waiting for Device>. Yes, I have ADB drives installed on the computer, and it's showing up in Device Manager as "Samsung Android ADB Interface.

When I try to pull the raw file from the phone to the computer, I am only pulling 55 Bytes, then it acts like it's done. I checked Busybox, to make sure it was working, and that's what lead me to find out that the phone isn't correctly rooted. I have SuperUser V3.1.3.

Anyone know what I'm missing?
Thanks!
 
I've never heard of this process of 'pulling the .raw file' from the phone. Can you elaborate a bit on what exactly it is?
