I found the script by BlackOtaku in an italian fansite today and I'm asking myself if my Nexus S 2.3.2 OTA can still be rooted.
I also seen that the file is not more available in the official thread, so..
can I use that script well?

its been said a few times before, just wait till the devs package it into the rom, its usually pretty painless and takes a few minutes to do.
we're all still waiting, tired, and anxious to get the 2.3.5 update, more notably the GRJ90 patch

I guess you have a transformer ??? make sure this is one for you before use. It is android 3.0 but you can ota update to 3.2. Good luck
You could always just update to the latest firmware. It breaks root. Wish I wouldn't have updated because I still want root!
you can do unroot without sd?
Hi guys. I got my Nexus S like 1 month ago and it's just great. The only problem that I have it's this crappy stock ROM I have from upgrading Android Build from 2.3.1 to 2.3.6 (Which appears to be latest when pressing System Update button in Settings).
I've been looking around for some custom ROMs to mount on my Nexus and I found out that none (or maybe I've found out wrong) support 2.3.6.
Should I downgrade to 2.3.4 or upgrade to ICS? And if so, how do I do it?
There is a Dev section where you can look for custom ROM.

Went there and found for 2.3.4 and 4. Updated it to ICS, but I'm having a small problem installing from sdcard, hehe...
Hi all.
I have watched the NOOB Video. I have scoured the forum. I have looked at other Android sites. I,m at a loss.
I have recently been given an old stock GT-I5801 that was never updated and network locked to Orange. To be able to use the phone I unlocked it. I gave my rooted xperia x8 running a hacked 2.2 to my son, as I read that the I5801 had an official Froyo 2.2 update. I installed KIES, updated as requested when first running the software, and it doesn't recognise the phone. I tried uninstalling/re-installing KIES and not updating it, I found that the phone had two Home screens (orange and TwLauncher) I tried connecting using both.
I have found instructions on how to put the official firmware update on not using KIES but the links to the firmware its self are broken.
I decided to update to a Android system 2.3.7 / CyanogenMod 7.2, however the instruction require I root it, the instructions to root are for Froyo 2.2
I'm going around in circles, I'm at a loss. can any one point me in the right direction to get at least Froyo 2.2 official on this phone. Thanks.
P.S. I may of ignored the part in the NOOB video that tells us to be brief...........sorry.
Just flash cm7 or any rom with odin, check the flashing guide in sticky thread.

Well if that's the only way, would been nice to have a fully working 2.2 rather than a hack with issues. I'll go look into the least problematic one, cant be any worse than 2.1 stock.

GT-I5801 has indeed been updated to Froyo and Froyo is one of the more stable firmware/ROM for our mobile.
You can download any stock Froyo ROM of your wish from the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497261.
Esle, you can look up to this thread to use any of the Custom ROMs which have better features than stock ROMs http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1234591
I prefer Kisadworx or PuruKisadHybrid.
Download Kyrillos rom or any rom flashable via Odin. Just flash it no need to root as many roms are prerooted.

Hello friends,
I have bought a Nexus 5 with the 5.0 lollipo version and got the update message for 5.1 yesterday. I downloaded and started the update and it gave me an error. While checking it it says that my phone is Rooted? And thats a very bad thing. I want to set it to factory default and unroot it then update to newest version.
Please can anyone tell me how to remove all the root and set it to default normal original android version then update legally?
I would appreciate if someone would help me and suggest me something.
I know its not good to suggest me custom android versions for my nexus but how can i know whichones posted here custom ones are good and which not?
Im just a newbie and would need help if possible to explain me about it.
Thank you very much

If your phone is rooted and you have the SuperSU app, you can un-root from within the app. If you don't have the app you can get it from Google Play.
Thanks guys,
Can anyone suggest me whichone of the custom roms will be good for me and stable?
Why update with 5.1 ota if you're going to install a custom ROM?
