Hello guys, i am new here, yes its my first post, yes i have been posting on forums in the past, and yes i want to cry.
I just got this brand new nexus s from Videotron a couples of months back, someone told me to look for Cyanogenmod, i did, i installed it, with superuser rooted/unlocked. loved it, untill recently i rebooted the device due to battery outage, and it was stuck to the google logo, then i opened clockworkmod and did a restore, it worked!
Then, last week, an update was pushed to the phone about jelly beans, (4.1.1), i clicked INSTALL NOW, i was at home, plugged in.
The install failed (Android logo on his back with red triangle warning) i waited 2 hours, it was still there, i had to remove the battery.
Now, Clockworkmod is not starting. (Its the default bootloader (as usual) and the next page (in the RECOVERY option) its the default "Android system recovery <3a>" with those 4 options
-reboot system now
-apply update from /sdcard
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partition
...
i did them all, tried everything its still not booting.
I tried everything i could find on all the forums, fastboot, adb nvflash... but. when i plug in my device in the pc i don't think its seen by the maching (unless i click the "Turn on USB Storage) BUT I CANT CLICK IT :'(
Model # is GT-i9020T
I really need a pro to help me out, and i promise to give you compensation if you can fix it, via paypal.
I am on facebook daily, on IRC too. msn too,
I don't care if we manage to install ice cream sandwich, jellybean or even freaking BBq peanuts..
I just need a working "facebook machine"
Thank you and ill be looking at this post every hour.

I looked at some tutorials about odin, but i cannot find all the appropriate files for my phone.
Would you be able to point me in the correct direction?
Free advice : you need to install fastboot on your computer.
You can fix this by holding volume up, and then hold power at the same time until you see the bootloader menu.
Then, connect usb, and on computer type fastboot devices
You should get two lines of output. One device is listed something like 359G7HF6824
That means fastboot can see your device.
You need to download cwm recovery.img
Flash it to your phone by typing fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
...which will send recovery.img to 'recovery' partition on your phone.
Now use the volume keys to select recovery option, press power key to select.
In recovery flash a new ROM. Download one from development section if you need to.
If you find any of these steps difficult, please ask for more help.
However, all the help you need can be found by reading through the stickies in Q&A, General, and Development.

Install the PDANet Android drivers, this usually works well.

Then use fastboot to flash a recovery as bedalus wrote.

so i dont know how to show u... i think u are just installing the drivers the wrong way.
put your phone in fastboot mode (power off, vol+ and power), plug it in, dievice manager, right click on Android 1.0, update drivers, navigate to teh folder i gave u in the link, let me pick, have disk and navigate to the folder again select open and chose the first one option and install it.
did you did that?

there is an alternative download mode on your phone called factory download mode. when you connect USB JIG to your phone you will enter to that mode. here is the way that you can make your own JIG:

#Flashing Via ODIN
1.Download and install Odin on your PC.
2.Once you have Odin installed in your PC the TWRP recovery.tar file from the download link.
3.Power off your device. Turn on your device using the proper key combo to get into download mode and attach the device to your computer via a USB cable.
4.Use the PDA tab or button to browse to and select the tar file that you downloaded and flash the device.

Even the MTP is not working perfectly on regular Android system but on TWRP, it really sucks.
Yes, you need to install TWRP Recovery BUT the best thing is get the files with ADB command;
adb pull /data/media
But first, check FRP is turned off from download mode.

Android has a built-in feature since version 5 called Smart Lock. It’s a proximity-based condition for your lock screen that keeps your phone unlocked when it is in one of three places:
On your person (like in your pocket or in your hand)
At a location that you have specified
Near another Android device that you have specified
If Smart Lock wasn't enabled on phone then the suggested USB-OTG method of course doesn't work.
