So I bought Nexus S from second hand recently mostly because it will get official ICS support from Google.
So because it's second hand buy, I really don't know if I'm using original bootloader, kernel, radio etc.
It's rooted (because I have Superuser app), I think it has stock 2.3.6 android (build number GRK39F) and kernel version 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef, [email protected]#1.
Can someone who use stock android and original kernels confrime to me that this is right version?
I really want to update to ICS using incremental update which I found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445635) but I'm affraid to don't screw something because of bad experience when I radio bricked my desire
Can I update it to ICS or I need to do unroot or something?
Just download the correct stock ICS rom for your device (if it is I9020T or I9023) ,put it on the SD root and then flash it using the stock or CWM recovery and be done with it (if you need the ICS)
most likely you won't be update by OTA because you are rooted (system file verification will fail)
just download stock ICS ROM and flash it ...
Ota will install fine if its a stock rom with just root. The update script basically checks that everything that should be there is there . If there is something else in there like su it don't matter.
flashing a new rom is the best way to go if you have cwm installed already
I succesfuly flashed ICS and first impressions are very good.
But I think I lost recovery...

flash a CWM recovery via adb , or there is TWRP recovery in DEV section , which is very good .
Hi All,
I have read the stickies, trolled through dozens of threads and posts, but I can't seem to get a definitive answer to my problem / question.
Current status:
TWRP 2.2.2.0 installed
Unlocked Bootloader
Custom JB Kernel [JB Unsecured I think??] installed
JB Odexed Custom ROM Installed
Hboot 1.14.0002 on device
My question is this:
I want to go back to stock JB or as close to it as possible. The current JB ROM is supposed to be stock, but is a little buggy, in that the stock dialler does not have smart dial, and some other small annoyances [all credit to the dev though, fantastic job!!]
Anyone willing to help me out?
Oh, and for some reason my adb / fastboot drivers are acting up [device not detected, although was working fine a couple of days ago before I started flashing roms!], so I'll need to fix these first somehow!
Tanks
D
What custom ROM are you on? You sure its a custom, and not the stock rooted odexed JB ROM?
If you are really on a custom, just flash a stock rooted JB ROM from Development. I don't see a benefit in installing an official OTA or RUU.
Since my AT&T ICS 4.04(final update) Atrix 2 won't pass beyond the M logo (have been flashed like ten times), I need someones help.
I can't downgrade to GB because would brick the phone forever or upgrade to a newer version. Or flash a custom ROM because the phone is not rooted and doesn't have any custom recovery tool installed.
So, I was thinking, maybe if I could flash an already rooted system and a custom recovery using RSDLite, could boot into the custom recovery, install a custom ROM and see if I can fix my phone.
Or maybe flash(RSDLite) a backup(or only the files need for this purpose) made by any user of the forum.
Is that possible? Please help.

It would be better to ask all the questions in one thread itself, rather than making new ones each time for a newer question.
RSDLite can't flash files which aren't signed by Motorola, hence no pre-rooted or custom recovery installed ROM can be flashed this way, since they won't have Motorola signatures.

Flash it with twrp, flash stock recovery and you should be good to go! You might need to relock your bootloader as you are s-on.

Is it really necessary to relock my bootloader? I need to send my M7 to warranty and I need to flash stock ROM, but I would prefer to leave my root alone, I don't think they would care?
I would think it would depend on how you unlocked the boot loader. If you went the way I did which was through HTC's dev site, then they will have it on record that your device's boot loader was unlocked. I think they would give it an approval to do warranty work since you are being seen as a dev. They will then let you go without 'punished'. I have not had any experience with this area however, so I might be wrong, but I have seen various reports on Reddit lately where HTC has repaired M7's that were rooted and had other ROM's on them with no issue. The Redditor did however, report that it was relocked and back to 'factory' so they had to go through the process again of unlocking bootloader and so forth.
You're an angel, thank you so much for posting this rom!
My phone got soft-bricked after I took an OTA, (completely stock without root! just an HTCDev unlocked bootloader), the logcat during boot was filled with lovely reallocation exceptions, flashed your Rom through TWRP and voila! Lucky I unlocked the bootloader first thing when I got it, I even managed to retain all of my data.
Thanks a lot!

Hey everyone, I've been researching for days, trying to figure out how to Unlock my bootloader on a 4.2.2 OS d2vzw(Verizon SGS3) SCH-I535. it seems the only way I can start flashing new roms( specifically CM 12.1) is to install a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM, but it locks up my recovery and I end up flashing the stock 4.2.2 over and over again. are there alternatives ways to flash roms? is it impossible to unlock my bootloader on a 4.2.2? is there a way I can downgrade my bootloader? help please nothing is working and I can't find current information....Thanks. :good:
