Does anyone from Brazil (or some near country) received the ICS OTA? I'm back to 2.3.6 - just to see how the update is going here - and not even a clue about the OTA. Tried check in, clearing data of Google Framework, etc... I know I can flash the OTA but would be nice to see some better update support here
Thanks!

Ha..ha....ha...... not funny
Did you flash a zip that contains stock kernel, stock rom and stock recovery? And of course did the superuser app appear in the app drawer after first boot?

hehe im not a noob on it. i have installed the images from google ( https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#soju ) without superuser, so im on stock 2.3.6 with bootloader unlocked only and CWM touch (this shouldnt matter for OTA AFAIK).
EDIT: oops, forgot to delete the install-recovery.sh so im with stock bootloader as well

Hi! I'm from Uruguay.
First of all, lets make it clear that I'm a Big NOOB on android. My Nexus S is my first android phone.
I've a brand new Nexus S, updated with Android 2.3.6. I've tried to update over OTA, but the phone displays that the software is up to date, giving me no chance to update to ICS.
I didn't make any modification in the software of my phone.
Thanks.

Hey guys...I have a rooted nexus s currently on Miui. I am wishing to go back to stock so I can get the official ICS rom from Google.
I wish to unroot my phone. I will flash back to my stock rom. Now, because I have all my apps, how do I unroot without wiping my phone? Since I will be unrooted titanium won't work. Would superoneclick work?
So my question is......(once I am back on my stock rom) ....how to I unroot without wiping my phone? Would superoneclick unroot button work? Please help. Thanks.

Sorry, I have read that you will lose all your data when you lock or unlock. Make a good backup.

No...I don't mind if it is still unlock. Infact...I would prefer that ...i just simple want to unroot so I can update to the ota ICS when Google release it

OK, then I suppose you just uninstall superuser and re-flash stock images of everything but data. I wonder if you need to restore /etc/install-recovery.sh? Actually renaming that back to original and rebooting should install stock recovery, but flashing the stock recovery image file will also work.

Why don't you keep it rooted and install rom like any other when it is released? So you don't have to wait for it to roll to your device

Why not just stay rooted and wait the few hours till some posts a rooted stock rom? I'm as anxious as anyone but I'm pretty sure I can hold off.....
Long days and pleasant nights............

So the question is in the title. Will the update brick or indoor my phone? If I wanted to install a rooted version does anyone know of a working mirror?
Thanks in advance.

From all the threads in general, it would seem the update does unroot your phone. Also from those threads it would seem flashing a custom recovery and, subsequently, the su zip will give you root back. I don't know of a pre-rooted version out yet.
i just upgraded to ics a little while ago using rom manager, i had to go back to stock 2.3.3 which unrooted my phone but did not lock the phone . I was wondering the same thing and that is how the heck do i root my phone now lol. my phone still shows the unlocked lock on the boot up screen under "Google" but i dont have SU permissions anymore. if I still have su.zip file and cwm can i just use fastboot and flash the img and su.zip ?
What if I don't have my original files to roll back to stock GB? I just downloaded the version Koush put up on his twitter...will that allow me to flash in CWM and update?

Download stock images from from manager then update to 2.3.6 then you can flash the one from koush's twitter.
Root will be lost after update. Currently flashing su.zip wont work. Still trying to figure it out.

We might just have to re*root when they release the info.

Let me ask you also, I'm currently running Alpha13 w/ Francisco.Franco kernel. Is the official that much smoother that I should lose my root?

Since there is an international and US version out you guys/gals will be getting OTAs long before us ATT users. If you ever get a notification that you have an update available please let us know here and we will help you pull the OTA. Many reasons we need it. Mainly so when an RUU drops we can decompile it.
OTA is being pushed out to international users. Please let me know when you get the notification

Here is the link for this update:

If you are interested in flashing it you must be almost fully stock. As in not flashed the stock rooted odex. If you haven't flashed any roms or kernel then you can just open this zip then open firmware.zip and extract the recovery.img from the zip and fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. then you will be able to run the ota

It is the OTA update from o2 germany.

It includes:
Stabilized Carmode
Optimized Camera stabilisation
And something about google movie
As I said Im completely Stock, and will install the update now.
You can pull the RUU from my phone if you want to, but u have to tell me what to do, or TeamViewer.

hi everyone, i have unlocked and rooted my htc one and installed the google play rom (version 4.2.2)
now i want to update it to 4.3, i am just wondering if i flash the newer ROM will i lose all the stuff on the phone, or does it simply update the OS?
If doing an OEM update then I don't believe you'd lose everything on the device. However, it is always better to be on the side of caution so backup your data through Google.

If you manage to update over-the-air, you will very probably lose root but not your data. Need to re-root afterwards and a Nandroid just in case doesn't hurt either.
I woke up this morning like usual grabbing my phone before i headed out the door. When I was watching a youtube video a 4.4.3 system update notification showed up, i assumed it must be the next snapshot from cm but it wasn't the same as a am update it looks like an update that would come from google. I would like to know if i should download and flash or re flash cm or anything would be helpful. the update is 92.2 MB if anyone is wondering. thanks in advance.
You should look at this. You're on a custom Rom and recovery. You may have other things that would cause the update to fail. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47369234
