[Q] Want to take Nexus S back to Stock

Hi,
I rooted my phone and installed superuser etc, and the 1st release of ICS on the device which in doing so, unrooted my device.. not to bothered.. now i want to remove super user and im finding it a bit impossible so far.
I originally user super one click but now it just freezes on me, im guessing because of ics?
How do i either remove superuser OR can some one point me in the right direction to flash it back to stock.
Thanks!
Tom

go to nexusshacks.com and you can find a tut on how to root ur device and then revert to stock.

1.Connect your Phone to PC and get into bootloader mode.
2. Download CWM 5.2.0.2 for NexusS from here.
3. Download the stock rom for your device from here
4. Use "fastboot flash recovery <cwm_file_name.img>" to flash the correct version.
5. Reboot into recovery and you will now have the correct CWM.
6. Install the Rom that you downloaded at step 3.
You now have a stock, unrooted Nexus S
Optional:
1. You can download superuser.zip and flash it as step 7. Once you reboot you will have a stock, rooted rom.
Thanks, J

LOL.. Not a problem..
1. Switch off your phone,
2. Remove the battery cover. Remove the battery.
3. There will be a white sticker with IMEI etc. Look closely and you will find an entry MODEL-GTI90XX.. that is your model number
Thanks, J

Yeah, i think its a little too complicated for me tbh, very easy to root, no problem i messed around on my Gtab with loads of customer roms, but to unroot or even get rid of super user, for me its a bit tricky.
I think i will sell the phone to someone who knows what they are doing lol - any takers?
Thanks for all the help though, really appreciate it!

Tom, I guess we could just root your phone in ICS! If you have the proper files downloaded, it would take hardly 10 minutes to get your phone back to stock.
If you can give me the model name, I can point you to the files that you have to download. NO need to put up your phone for sale
PS: When you go to stock, you may need to do a factory reset and thus lose all data.

Or, you can set up everything at your end, and I can help you do it via TeamViewer - a desktop sharing utility

teamviewer huh? could we try that? if its no trouble of course

I suppose we could do that...what's your phone's model.. there's isn't much to do via the PC.. only flashing clockworkmod...
For the rest, you would have to press buttons up and down and select options..
btw, you have skype?

yes i do, add me tomster1210
Thanks for this btw
model is GT-I9020

Fixed!! Via skype & teamviewer
1. installed drivers
2. downloaded fastboot.
3. flashed recovery
4. flashed rom & su
5. Bingo!

Couldent of been more helpful! Thanks again!

I was going to ask the same question (how to revert to stock and keep superuser) .... now I dont need to post. Thanks for step by steps jithinsarath.

What do you do for step 6 if you have a D720? And if you backup a stock rom with CWM and then update to ICS w/ custom kernel, can you revert to your stock backup at that point?

D720 huh? AFAIK, I guess the latest that you have is GWK74 - Android 2.3.7. No ICS yet. But there are custom ROM's I believe.
If you have a CWM backup of the stock, you CAN restore it after ICS upgrade. Make sure you do a full wipe.
Thanks, J

I just went through this process and thought this might help:
I have been using NexusBeam and was tired of the random reboot. So I decided to go back to stock on my Nexus S 9020T.
These are the steps I have done:
1. nandroid backup working nexusbeam
2. downloaded stock Android 4.0.3/IML74K/XXKI1 Radio/KL1 Bootloader from here
3. Flashed it in recovery
Now I have kernel
3.0.8-gb55e9ac
android-build @apa28 #1
Build IML74K
and I donot have a recovery (as expected).
4. flashed clockwork recovery 5.0.2.0 using fastboot (tutorial here)
Now I have the recovery I wanted.
5. flashed superuser 3.0.7
and voila !

Sorry to dredge up an old Thread...
I'm looking to put my Nexus S back onto the stock path to get the 4.0.4 update as I thought I was stock but checking what I did I think I actually installed a custom rom so I'm not running a YakJu build?!?
This was the rom:
[Link removed as I'm too new but google ZD3PyN0t.zip and that's it]
I'm happy to follow the instructions above and want to do a full wipe and restore but confused which I have I9020A or I9020T - does it matter if I'm not in the US?
Carrier : 3 UK
Version : 4.0.3
Build: IML74K
Base I9020XXXI1
NOT ROOTED
Any pointers much appreciated!

Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos B5512 Root

I can't root my Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos B5512... Can anybody help me?

yup, tell me wat problem you are facing..
i got the same device

The truth is that I am a newby... I have only read about routing and custom roms. But I can't even start trying to root my device because I can't enter recovery mode... When I press Vol Up + Home + Power Button it takes snapshots of my screen... I have read other forums about our device but I found nothing else...
Sent from my GT-B5512 using xda app-developers app

turn your cell phone off completely and then do that way

That works!
What shall I do next?
Is this (http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-y-pro-duos-gt-b5512-root-65406/) the right way?
It's the easiest I have found...
How can I make a backup of my current version?
And how can I recover to factory conditions?

yes, you should start by rooting the cellphone. (but are you sure what rooting does and why to use it?)
hmm, your link is not what i had use, but if you are okay with it then go ahead.
about backup, find for CWM.zip, its a clockworkmod recovery skin. and you will find instructions in it. then you can backup/restore everything.
i suggest moving your backed up data to computer. then you can use ODIN too if you need...

Can you describe me what way you used, or send me a link?
Is there any way I can go back to factory conditions and how can I unroot my phone again?

SamMobile works (sofar one of the few where you can dll stuff from), but the firmwares i find there are not for my build. I used manual search aswell the detect device option. I get hits, i can download them but when installing/flashing they never get accepted by my phone.
Anyway, hard to find roms/kernel nowadays for such a oldshool phone.

Cyanogen(mod).com Also with an Rom installer for windows. I did it the hard way, flashing kernel with Odin (unexpected and unwanted cuss Odin froze up and stopped unexpected, after reboot i saw i had another recovery mode on my phone) to CWM and ran an unofficial Cyanogen mod with CWM through the Recovery mode of my phone (update.zip, anyway, with the CWM recovery mode you can select any file anywhere on your SD-card when that kernel is installed, no need to rename files to 'update.zip' anymore)
As a complete noob, it took me a whole night (just a single night) to find all this out on my own, so if i can, everybody can !!!! ;-p

In the recovery menu it loads the package, opens the package and then i get 2 kind of errors saying "bad package" or "wrong package".
Not so sure what exactly it sais cuss did that a few days ago in the middle of the night (doing this a couple of nights now and have a big lack of sleep now) and with cwm recovery i can choose whatever file i want to use as update.zip (even with the original filename) so i putted alot of files on my sd-card and ran them all to hope one of them worked. So i got alot of errors to see till i finally got the CyanogenMod7 update file running and doing his job. Dont think im going for an Stock Rom anymore on that phone so i dont bother anymore trying with that.

[Q] i9505 restore bloatware for OTA lollipop 5.0

Hi, this is my first actual post. I have searched and can't see this query anywhere else.
Ok I'll try to make this as clear as possible, I have read Lollipop 5.0 has been released in the UK for the i9505 and I want to update OTA (which would be when xPosed framework is compatible) but I have a couple problems. I am rooted and I find out now that you can't do OTA if you have previously deleted the bloatware that came with the phone which I have done. Process I have come up with:
1) Use Titanium Backup to backup ALL apps to SD
2) Restore the bloatware by flashing stock Android 4.2.2 firmware to go back to original (can't remember my deleted apps and factory reset won't restore them)
3) Carry out OTA (using CF-autoroot or SU survival mode to keep root)
4) Restore Titanium backups from SD
My questions:
1) Is that process correct?
2) Would flashing the stock rom get rid of my Custom Recovery? Or anything on my external SD?
3) Do I need to unlock bootloader? How do I know if mine is already unlocked or not?
4) Possibly any way to keep my apps layout on homepage?
Extra info: I don't want to get CM, since I had CM11 and didn't like it, prefer the stock touchwiz and custom ROMs have too many bugs.
Would really appreciate any direction on this issue.
Phone info:
Model: Samsung Galaxy S4
Android version: 4.2.2
Baseband version: I9505XXUBMGA

Anyone? :good:

Here is the way
1. Backup using helium app
2. Unroot using SuperSU app (in the setting there is a option)
3. Download stock ROM from sammoble (choose the proper one)
4. Flash it using odin (u need to have stock recovery & bootloader status dosenr matter until u r stock)
5. Before flashing do a hard reset.just to be safe
6. Restore ur app d data using helium(this time u will need a pc)
7. Check for update from settings.
8. & to save ur launcher (touchwiz) there is option in helium
The reason why I don't suggest to keep root cuz at the moment lollipop will run into issues if rooted..later on after u r done with updating u can try rooting.make sure to backup SD just in case something goes wrong
WARNING I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG CUZ ITS U WHO IS DOING NOT ME....well it won't go wrong is u do properly..

Thanks for the reply. Checked out helium app on google play and around the internet, many people are having issues with restoring backups, I'll give it a try while I have a nandroid backup just to see how it works.
Sorry I didn't understand what you meant in the brackets for number 4, can you please elaborate?
Lollipop needs to fix itself! Root is most important for me, I'll update when Xposed is compatible on Lollipop hopefully the root issue will be fixed by then.

It dosent matter what is ur boot loader status,locked or unlocked...if u r flashing a official ROM boot loader status dosent matter.d for flashing a stock rom u need a stock recovery....d for helium if restoring dosent work I move the files manually
Good luck in future :thumbup:

Oh ok gotcha!

(I think it's the former option but just checking Thanksss

I can download the latest official firmware at sammobile.com, look for firmwares, and search your device specific rom/carrier.
Good luck! :fingers-crossed:

Just checked in YouTube the difference between the Google edition and original and the original is much better in my opinion. The main thing is I don't want to lose all the camera features it comes with. And I can't seem to find stock lollipop for the original S4 on Sammobile, have to navigate with my phone since laptop is bust. I'll give it a quick look again.

LRA ☆SM-G920R6☆ Root without tripping Knox Counter

Hi. I'm finally can root my SM-G920R6. I use the KingRoot.apk the v4.80 and root the phone. But it's not full root. Them I use the SuperSuMe.exe on my PC to remove all the KingRoot app and install the official SuperSu.apk The program install it's self. And now we can install the correct binary and reboot the device and don't lose root... ohh and my Knox still 0x0... =) XD:laugh: :victory: :highfive:
Links:
●KingRoot v4.80
●SuperSuMe. for PC
Sincerely I don't know if full root or not. But for me is working. And other things I don't know is full knox disabled. The SuperSuMe block the knox in one of the process but I don't know if is disabled at all or not.
I wish this can't help all the SM-G920R6 user. And don't want to avoid the knox warranty.
The only thing you can see is every time you BootUp your phone it say Custom.
The next thing I'm going to do is make a full backup with FlashFire app because mi firmware not appear in SamMoblie. If one Dev can make something with this backup for make custom roms or something good for this devices model.
my phone info:
Android Version : 5.0.2
Baseband : G920R6WWU1AOE4
Build Number : LRX22G.G920R6WWU1AOE4
Hardware Version : G920R6.02
I'm not a good English speaker so I apologize my errors..

P.S.
Sorry I'm not a Dev. this is my first Thread and I do this for helping.

This is a little off topic for the op but I really need help right now.. I rooted with CF autoroot for G920F no problem then installed TWRP 3.0.2-1 zeroflteusc also built for G920F model and in the process of trying to find a better rom as soon as I had a custom recovery, me (being a dumba**) accidentally wiped my internal storage to do a clean flash of a rom therefore deleting the only backup I had. I've only been able to find the factory binary for this device which I flashed but it had literally nothing exept for basic testing software and a simple ui to run it. It was also stuck on Android 5.0.2 but I found a compatible rom with AllianceROM v1 with update v2 flashed for the G920F but I can't find any way to update past 5.0.2!! I've been trying to find a way to update somehow for weeks but nothing is compatible with my device and I'm stuck. Would someone that has my model running on Android 5.1.1 or 6.0/.1 please install the TWRP I mentioned before and make a backup of the system, modem, efs, and boot and post it online or send it to me it would be a lot of help.

Reasons I hate you I guess ?
You are a real piece of **** and a cancer to those with A ACTUAL SAMSUNG-SMG920V.

Sincerely yours ( Another piece of **** with this **** tastic phone that dies in 3 hours and you can do jack **** with)
P.s. It also dies in 3 hours no matter what I install on it no matter on many resource manager apps I use, it just ****ing dies.
P.s.s. Sorry for swearing so much...

Because my device is G920R6 originally and i want it back the 920F rom is barely compatible with my device as is and i want a stable rom made for my build and also to enlighten others of how i rooted this phone and what custom recovery is working for me. Even on 5.0.2 and an unstable rom my battery lasts 6+ hours of constant use so root is working fine for me.

So much hate.

yeah i see now this model phone is the ugly duck....
But some one have the factory firmware of this model flashable with odin. Thanks a lot.

This is a little off topic for the op but I really need help right now.. I rooted with CF autoroot for G920F no problem then installed TWRP 3.0.2-1 zeroflteusc also built for G920F model and in the process of trying to find a better rom as soon as I had a custom recovery, me (being a dumba**) accidentally wiped my internal storage to do a clean flash of a rom therefore deleting the only backup I had. I've only been able to find the factory binary for this device which I flashed but it had literally nothing exept for basic testing software and a simple ui to run it. It was also stuck on Android 5.0.2 but I found a compatible rom with AllianceROM v1 with update v2 flashed for the G920F but I can't find any way to update past 5.0.2!! I've been trying to find a way to update somehow for weeks but nothing is compatible with my device and I'm stuck. Would someone that has my model running on Android 5.1.1 or 6.0/.1 please install the TWRP I mentioned before and make a backup of the system, modem, efs, and boot and post it online or send it to me it would be a lot of help.

yeap.. but when I install the recovery the phone gave a glitch.. its flipping the touch response inverted.. and the only fix is with root. and use the app. phone info.apk for Samsung and use the secret code with root because it is blocked on the dialer.
but i have the backup for the new firmware. not the android 5.0.2

That's exectly what I need I'm stuck on 5.0.2 and I want to upgrade back to 6.0.1 it's mainly the bootloader I need because no other marshmallow bootloaders work for this phone and the one I have is only for 5.0.2
