just fxz back (see the noob thread) then re root. it only take less than 5 minutes to re root, it is best to ota to 2.3.6 before rooting after the stock restore

custom rom installed on my device ... To return to Roman stock, stock rom before you install it necessary to go back recowery.? loading custom roms recoweryde stock? How?thks...
If you backed up your stock rom with your custom recovery then you can restore it as long as you have the correct firmware installed (gb vs. ics).
If you did not back up your stock rom then you can flash it via a PG58IMG and keep your custom recovery.
Heck, mike1986 even made stock ics flashables for custom recoveries...
You NEED a stock recovery and stock rom to perform OTA's...
I'm going to piggy back on this thread. Anyone have the stock recoveries available? I'm going to sell this phone soon and I know if I sell it with a custom recovery it's going to be a headache for someone.

Let's say I want to flash a rom and made a backup thru CWM of my stock rom will I be able to keep root if I flash it back to the stock rom ?
II'm doing this cause I care most about no auto brightness issue than the actual advantage to go with a custom rom.
Thanks
Why don't you just root your stock ROM then? You need to be rooted to flash CWM recovery anyways..

If your ROM is already rooted, and you're restoring it from CWM, yes. If you're using fastboot to re-flash the stock ROM, no, you'll have to re-root it.
I'm kind of confused about what you're asking, though. Can you give more specific details? Are you going to flash a different ROM and try to flash the stock ROM, or parts of it, on top of the new ROM? I wouldn't do that unless you're very sure of what you're doing.
Hi everyone i have never flashed before.
I have atrix2 att 2.3.5.
I deleted bloatware and wanted to goto stock and then start applying roms.
I followed the guide for flashing and installed bootstrap, CWM, and J.Y.Daddy's BOOT INTO CWM RECOVERY ON BOOT, and also reset.zip.
Knowing that without bloat there is no chance to go 2.3.6 i followed these steps but when i booted the phone it has a new notification bar etc, but when i checked the about phone iam at 2.3.6
55.13.25
build number is SuperCharged V 5 Update1
So what now? is it normal, or am i in a bad situation?

Along with just about every custom rom comes custom status bar icons, UI look/feel, etc. This is all a part of running custom roms rather than using stock Moto rom. Don't worry, this is what happens!

True, but I am not sure he knew he flashed a rom.
You may have problems because you just installed a 2.3.6 system on top of a 2.3.5 kernel, among other parts. I did this forever, and it had some issues.
What you should do is fxz back to stock 2.3.5 (read the noob guide, this has been said how to do way to many times, if you don't understand it, search and read more). Then you can do the OTA update and install a rom again if you want.
Yes, i did not flash any rom yet, i was installing the CWM recovery on boot so i would not be in trouble if ever i flashed a rom, but iam already at 2.3.6 some how.
If this 2.3.6 has everything the ota 2.3.6 has then i can stay with this, if not then i will have to fxz stock 2.3.5 and ota again and will have to restore everything :s

Hi all,
I'm sorry about my stupid question but I really don't know nothing about that . I had rooted and flashed my NS and installed the matr1x kernel (very good btw), and now I knew that JB will be available to NS. My question is, need I back to stock kernel to receive the update?
Thanks

You have to understand that installing an OTA (official update) on a rooted device regardless of what kernel can cause problems, as it did with my Nexus S before. I suggest you make a NANDroid backup at all times before you install any ROMs, official or Custom. You can also use Titanium backup and others.
There's still a slight while until the new JB 4.1 comes out. It's suggested that you install a Custom JB 4.1 ROM for your Nexus S as though you don't cause any problems. I think it's OK if you do it with the kernel pre-installed. But people always install the Custom ROM THEN they install the Kernel, I think installing a new ROM always overwrites the kernel, if it comes with it.
EDIT:
In short, wait for the JB Custom ROM and you don't have to revert back to stock kernel, when you do the update it will automatically overwrite. Most Custom ROMs come with Stock/ordinary kernels. So then the user can flash whatever kernel they like in your case, matr1x.
Wish you the best of luck, and I am waiting for the Nexus S JB to come out as soon as possible
Ota binary patches the boot image iirc. So it can get all messed up.

I didn't any backup before flashing a new kernel :crying:, so what can I do now if I want my stock kernel back?? What's a NANDroid (I know that is a tool but how can I do it?) ? Is Titanium bkp easily?

I prefer wait for stock JB Rom and probaby I'll , but, can I already find some JB ROM?

I don't need to remove the kernel even unroot my cell, alright?

A NANDroid backup is a internal memory backup. You can create one by booting into Recovery (Power off your phone and Hold Power and Down on your volume buttons.) If you rooted your phone and unlocked your bootloader (that's what you had to do to flash a new kernel), you should be able to load ClockworkMod or TeamWin Recovery and do a backup of your phone.

There's one rom but it's a port from the SDK and the amount of major bugs is high so it's not recommended but you could try another custom rom meanwhile, I can't go back to stock after trying custom roms, like AOKP and Cyanogenmod 9. Make sure you backup your apps and some settings (not everything will be compatible between stock and custom so pay close attention to which system setting you'll backup) with Titanium Backup.
To sum it all up for you
There's a Jelly Bean release which is unstable and has no sound, and will not be fixed until the REAL version comes out.
NANDroid backs up the whole internal memory on the phone including the system, it can be done from clockworkmod recovery.
Titanium backup, backs up specific settings and information that you choose, available from the playstore.
You don't need to unroot or go back to a STOCK kernel in order to flash a CUSTOM ROM. DO not however flash a STOCK rom after rooting, as at times that can cause problems.
If you want to go back to a STOCK ROM after rooting a device, there's a way, check this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
and choose your Nexus S model: To acquire model, go to Settings - About - Baseband version. if it says I9023 at the start that's your Nexus S's model
Choose one of the Fastboot Stock ROMs and use the Fastboot method to flash the ROM. That is a good way to go back to STOCK ROM if anything bad happens
By the way you should expect the new OTA official 4.1 update for the Nexus S to be on your model's page.
NOTE: Using Fastboot to flash a ROM is very clean. However this will delete all your data and if you do everything correctly will lock your bootloader and unroot your phone. So use Fastboot only when you really feel the need to.
Cheers
and stay tuned for Jelly Bean :victory:

That means, when I receive the official 4.1 update notification, I should unroot my phone first and just install it after?

OK first off, do not install the update using the system update method from about, as that is a 100% stuff up if you're still rooted or on a Custom ROM.
However to update I think flashing a stock ROM but USING Clockworkmod works fine!
Someone please confirm, as I am not 100% sure
However what I am sure about is that if you run into any troubles installing your STOCK ROM using Fastboot is very very good and clean, however there are 2 things:
1. You will wipe everything COMPLETELY
2. You need the ROM to be in a fastboot format kind of way for you to flash it
There's a guide and everything for fastboot.

Personally I will wait for a custom ROM for 4.1 if it doesn't take too long as that's guaranteed and will obviously be faster and safer to install on a ROOTED device.
Someone still confirm if installing Stock ROM while over Custom ROM while ROOTED through CWM is OK or not!?
Hummm, ok...
I'm already using the Stock ROM, I just flashed a new kernel, and I prefer install the stock kernel and unroot my phone. Just to let it clean.
After I install the JB official update, maybe I flash and root again, depends of Google :laugh:
Do you know where can I download a trust official 4.0.4 kernel from the forums? My phone is a Nexus S I9020AUCKJ1, Version Number: IMM76D
Thanks!!!
Hi. Does someone help me to roll back to sock kernel? Any ideas? Thanks

do you still have stock rom? or custom.
If you still have stock rom do a manual update ( download it from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/oneplus-nord-rom-ota-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.4138085/). That should bring everything back to stock, including kernel

I would like to flash only the kernel, without doing anything else. Because I have rooted device and custom recovery and don't have a PC or a laptop.
