Can someone point me in the right direction..I need the stock 2.3.4 rom please..searched but don't know which one to download..nexus s on T-Mobile USA..thx in advance..!!!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I don't think there is a full 2.3.4 flashable full ROM. But there is 2.3.3 stock ROM, and if you flash it you will get 2.3.4 update OTA within like 10 minutes.

You have to wipe. You can always reflash recovery if you need to.

So just root again, it takes like 2 minutes. There are several easy guides for root here. Do you need my help or can you follow one of the guides?
I suggest you follow one of the guides and if you have trouble then ask me and I will help you.

*facepalm* Revert back to Android 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 version,then root your phone (but you'll stay in Gingerbread firmware since ICS can't be root directly)
If you still wanna have root in ICS,check carefully in your phone forum section

Locked bootloader (unlock allowed yes) - You can't flash custom kernel or custom Rom that aren't base of stock Rom,but you can unlock it
Locked bootloader (unlock allowed no) - Same as above,but you can't unlock it for other reason (eg.contract phone by at&t,so they lock it permanently)
Unlocked bootloader (unlock allowed yes) - You can flash custom kernel and custom Rom that are not base on stock Rom (yay!),but you lost DRM key and can't use some application like TrackID...unlocked using Official Sony website
Unlock bootloader (unlocked allowed no) - Same as above,but it's not actually 'unlocked',but it's a patched version of bootloader which it still have DRM,but still can be flash custom kernel or Rom...unlocked using TestPoint usually
Sent from my SK17i using xda premium
So I have to unlock boot loader to root my phone?
Or I can flash custom ROM only by unlocking boot loader or root is needed?

No no no,you doesn't have to unlock bootloader to root,and you can ACTUALLY flash custom Rom on your phone with a locked bootloader that are BASED ON STOCK ROM....but I would recommended to unlock bootloader as custom Rom wil usually ask for a custom kernel...

Please I need your help. I booted into CWM and then rebooted from there. It then said fix permission so root will not be lost? I clicked yes and now when I booted I have no root. But my Google animation is unlocked. Please help, what have I done!

That prompt always screws things up, sometimes either if you press yes or no. Should stop using cwm really. Use Philz or TWRP.

You panic to fast which can make you make misstakes, read the first 4-5 threads in the General section well so you`ll know whats happening and for how to deal with and fix issues

I don't know from experience, but you're probably best off reading through the mod's thread and looking for compatibility issues. Most devs will write in the OP if there's a known issue, but you can't necessarily count on it. Best bet is always reading and/or searching.

Read the OP`s of the sound mod`s if they`re compatible with odexed stock, i think they are but better check it.
OK thanks. Instead of a zip would this work fine without bricking/bootloops

You can not unlock the bootloader,but you can root with towelroot or Stumproot.
You can Flash this Recovery
This Recovery works,but you can not save a Backup to External SD,only Internal Memory and Restore not working for me.
To flash a custom rom just need to root?
