How can I unistall cwm that I flashed with the odin leak? I want to go back to gb quik wiz but att trys to update my radio when i do so it reboots and goes to cwm every time
that makes no sense. u shouldn't be getting ota's with quik wiz unless ur manually checkng for them. The kernl is also dag's, a non stock one. As for recovery, u can reflash the stock one through odin, same way u did cwm. I recommend flashing to ucla3 modem to ur phone, as well as the faux 010m kernel efore doing anything else though, and seeing if that fixes it
Just flash stock recovery if you want to go back
This thread has it

Good luck
I am booting to CWM after update also and then nothing happen and tell me update failed.
The only way to fix it is to install Samobile tar. The one in the development stock by konane is not 100% stock. The OTA update won't work unless samobile tar is flashed.

I am new to the nexus s , but have been a heavy galaxy s user. I noticed that flashing roms etc is a bit different from what I am used to on my galaxy s .. I did not see any thread containing stock kernels ... So how can I return to stock after I have flashed another kernel ? I have installed the voodoo kernel with ext4, sound and colour enhancement .. But suppose I want to return to my stock gri54 kernel , how can I do that ? Have read allready about fastboot etc etc but then I should have an .img of the stock kernel , correct ?
By flashing back to stock rom, you will get back your stock kernel automatically.

So by flashing back to stock ROM via recovery, does it mean that it will be locked and un-rooted as factory default [like when you first purchase the device]?

It will be unrooted, but still with unlocked bootloader.

The Odin package can put you back to stock rom too.
So what you are saying there is no way to flash only the stock kernel ?? Very confusing .. I am able to flash just another kernel using fastboot but I am not able to flash back the stock kernel using fastboot ? Odin is a last resort method .. haven't seen fastboot .img files of the stock here in the forums ?
I'm not sure if anybody posted any stock kernel file in the forums. If there is any, you can easily download it and install via recovery or fastboot.
Otherwise you can only revert to stock roms because stock roms links are easily available through the forums or samsung firmware website.
Or after you have failed everything, may want to consider Odin. It seems to touch the phone at a lower level compare to other techniques.
follow the instruction on this

Good luck
Yeah , I also mentioned odin allready .. Used it a lot when I had my galaxy s .. Just thought that since the nexus s can use fastboot I could get rid of odin ..
I am also not used that all has to be flashed to achieve a single goal .. On the galaxy s I could flash the kernel separately and also stcok kernel were easy to find .. I think it is kind of a hassle to reflash a whole rom just because you want stock kernel back ..
Voodoo has stated that his kernel is 'almost' stock, with only voodoo addon to the pure stock kernel. Maybe you can use that?
Some news here?
Hi there!
I was also wondering about this same situation. Let's say I want to stick with the original ROM and try some non-stock kernels. After some tests I know there is an OTA available but I don't want to backup and restore everything (using TB or similar). From what I understood I wouldn't be able to flash stock kernel (in other words, back to full stock ROM + Kernel) and apply OTA update...
What if we just flash boot.img from a nandroid of stock rom+kernel?

Hoo great!
but, can you tell us where to find or how to get it from the stock ROM and make it flashable? It might be useful for upcoming releases of stock ROM/Kernels.
Thank you once again,
RM
edit: after searching by the filename you gently provided I found this:
hxxp://www.android-hilfe.de/2277361-post1.html
hxxp://www.michalurban.cz/Nexus_S_i9023/Kernel/
seems to be a good compilation, and stock is in the list!
The file I posted is already flashable through CWM. Just wipe dalvik first. Of course make sure you have a Nandroid backup just in case.
Hi,
sure, I noticed that. What I was wondering was how to get this flashable kernels. From the stock ROM full installation file? From a nandroid backup of a stock ROM??

Hi, is any chance to get stock kernel for Jelly Bean 4.1.1? I've got stock rom, Air Kernel and OTA is buzzing me multiple times a day. No luck in upgrade, Error Status 7. I think it's Air Kernel's fault.

Been browsing around a bit and noticed that some people want to completely revert back to stock, but they don't want to use ODIN, due to the fact it'll trigger the flash counter for warranty exchanges. It's a backup I made literally IMMEDIATELY after I flashed Clockwork recovery, so it's completely unrooted and untouched. Just wanting to ask around to see if it seems like something useful to others before I upload it. Let me know! Could just flash the stock recovery and be at a completely out-of-the-box state.
Or possibly use it to make a stock flashable .zip?
It wont get rid of root and cwm and super user.

Actually I would certainly have a usefor this. I made some boneheaded decision and unistalled.a.couple.bloatware apps before I made my first nandroid.backup
This would be pretty useful when the ics ota comes around.

In order to get back to "out of box" condition for warranty/return purposes you need to reinstall 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 stock ROM, KERNEL, and 3e Recovery. The only time (based on what I've read on SR Forum), the custom binary flash counter gets tripped is when you use Odin to flash a Kernel (boot.img). So I think what you are proposing is to flash stock ROM/KERNEL using CWM, then use Odin to flash the stock 3e Recovery partition. Odin should not trip the flash counter if you only Odin flash "recovery.img" and not the "boot.img" (kernel). Correct?

I was running SkyIce before, fully rooted, and after restoring this, I no longer have root priveledges and Superuser.apk isn't anywhere to be found.
And yes, restoring this to get a stock kernel and everything back, then just flash stock 3e with Odin to get the recovery partition back to stock.

Things seem to have changed a bit. With the new update. Before we were able to take an ota update, even rooted on a custom rom. As long as we had stock recovery, and all bloatware intact. While this is still true to a certin extent. There has been a slight change. You can apparantly not take the ota, if you are on the kk1 baseband. So if you would like to take the ota you have a few options.
First if you are on kj2 baseband. Flash any 2.3.5 rom( just to be safe ) . With the bloat intact and odin the stock rocovery. Found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19760508 ( or restore a nandroid backup of a bloat intact 2.3.5 rom then odin the stock recovery).
if you are on kk1 baseband. Flash any 2.3.5 rom with bloat intact. Then flash the kj2 baseband
Found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1384865
Then flash stock recovery. From the link above.
Just using odin to flash the stock tar. Will not change your baseband. So basically for some reason. Those with kk1 baseband cant take the ota. BOTTOM LINE IS , YOU NEED TO BE ON KJ2 BASEBAND. WITH ALL BLOATWARE , STOCK RECOVERY, AND CIQ.

Silver03wrx... do you know if we have a stock 2.3.5 KJ2 rooted zip like your stock 2.3.6 rooted zip? I already flashed stock 3e recovery and the KJ2 radio... but the new OTA didn't work as I still have the stock 2.3.6 zip installed. Thx

The update was pulled. Probably due to issues installing on phones which already had UCKK1 / 2.3.6. I noticed this just as I got done reverting mine back to 2.3.5... lol. damn the luck!

Does anyone know if flashing the stock recovery here will work to get OTA updates with the ICS leak? or do I need to get the recovery image that was packaged with the leak? I would really like to put the stock recovery image back on my phone so I can get the OTA updates.
Just reflash ics and don't flash cwm or superuser and you will be stock and should get ota's.
That is if I am understanding your question and issue
That is correct, but I would like to keep it rooted and put the stock recovery back on.

I tried flashing stock recovery after installing ICS leak and I got an error in Odin and fail. On reboot I got the connect to keis screen (forget the exact wording) I ended up flashing k0nanes stock. tar to get back up and running. For some reason it didn't like the solo stock recovery flash, but it flashed stock recovery with k0nanes .tar

This leak isn't official. There may be problems with an update if you do get one OTA. Be careful!! Personally I will wait for an update to come out, flash stock and grab it. I wouldn't do it with CWM or even rooted though being rooted didn't matter for 2.3.6.

Posted this in the Kies ICS update thread as well .. can anyone help?
Ok, so I'm at the Firmware upgrade and initialization screen in Kies ... it's been stuck at 2% for about 20 minutes now. I'm assuming this is a problem. Anyone have advice on what I should do? Let it go ... disconnect, restore with CWM and try again?
My config when I started:
GB 2.3.6 - rooted, cwm touch installed
(Running on Windows 7 through VMWare on a MacBook Pro if that matters)
You need to be on stock recovery for it to work.

Damn.
So ... do I pull the plug, restore to the CWM backup I ran before running the update and then flash the stock recovery on it?
Odin back to 2.3 stock and it flashes stock recovery.

Thanks man, I'll give it a rip and post an update in a bit.
ODIN hates me.
I wasn't able to flash anything with odin, it just kept failing or hanging.
Fortunately, I was able to use CWM to recover so I got back up and running on my rooted 2.3.6 setup.
I tried Kies update again, same result. Ran through the download, then hit 2% on the install and hung. Odd thing is, Odin lets me flash CWM and I was able to recover with that again. But, Odin continues to fail on ROM flashes. This just doesn't make sense.
