Do you have CWM Recovery installed? Can you try a factory reset either in CWM or stock recovery?

depends what you restore back to.
2.3.3 is the latest
Can't you just copy that 2.3.3 stock ROM zip file to SNS root and run through recovery?
Why would you go to 2.3.3 by choice? I'm dreading the day that it says i have an update.

(you can read about it here http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=44db6d8e31129d4c&hl=en&start=200)
i installed cm7 and thinking it will be helpfull,the freezing is the same.
when go back to the original rom i could get the google rom update to fix the problem
[Q] downgrade
can i downgrade to 2.3.2 using a nandroid
yes you can
just download the version that you want, copy it to the usb, reboot to CWR, and select restore, wipe data, wipe cache, wike kalvik, reboot, you're done, enjoy
I was the praud owner of a nexus s root. i upgrate to 2.3.3 and im keep root, but cant do anything because clockwork recovery dosent work, neither the superuser, etc.... I just whant to go back to 2.3.2
fastboot boot etc etc
Hi..
i unrooted my device and found out that CWM is still installed.. is there a way to remove it and return to the stock recovery?
i wanna try the new update that is pushed OTA and after downloading it reboots to CWM recovery and does nothing
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19760508
Also: i heard using "return to stock/ soft brick" also reinstalled cwm, but idk, never tried it before

i tried the return to stock and it didnt remove CWM i'll try the other thing u posted.. thank you buddy
EDTI:
i tried to flash the stock recovery via odin and it worked
I LOVE XDA DEVELOPERS forum
I downloaded the update from the system update button in settings. And it downloaded the update but I didn't install it yet. Is it okay to install it even though I am rooted? I just don't want to brick my phone

As far as I know, you have to unroot to install the update.
There are also a couple other threads on this exact issue, in which myself and others have already explained how to accomplish this.
The key to successfully take/install ATT OTA updates is to be on stock rom (all bloatware intact and unfrozen), stock kernel, stock modem, and most importantly... stock recovery (3e). For me, didnt matter if I was rooted.

That's exactly right. Now, please no more threads on this guys, Sheesh
My nandroid backup was made after rooting, so after a restore from cwm (I was on jb deodexed) I was still rooted. I flashed a stock image from sammobile with Odin from PC and I lost root (that was my intention). All my apps and data are still here, did not lost anything. No wipe no cache clear nothing else. Binary count 0.
I want to be sure that when jb ota is released I'll be able to install it from the device without any issues.
Do I have to do anything else? I read in some posts that I have to flash the stock recovery, in others that the stock recovery is flashed within the stock firmware so I'm not really sure. Is there a way to verify?

try booting into recovery by holding down the power and volume up button at the same time until it starts to boot then release the power button and keep holding the volume up. This will boot into recovery and there you can tell if it's stock or CWM.
It's stock. After the nandroid restore from cwm when I wanted to reboot I was asked if I want to keep cwm or to restore stock, and I choose stock. I think I''ll do a wipe and whatever I can from the stock recovery. I'm just bored....

yeah and if all else fails when the update comes and you aren't able to get it then you can just factory reset and odin the stock firmware and then all should go smoothly.
I already did that
The red triangle in the stock recovery is normal?

Use TriangleAway to get rid.

+1 it's worth the money to always have that as an option, just make sure you follow the directions (pretty simple)
It was the first thing I did after flashing the jb. As I stated in my first post, everything is ok on my device, I just wanted to be sure that I didn't miss something and that I'll be able to receive and use future OTA updates. I guess I'll have to wait to be sure, no point in making a tutorial on this yet.

Quick question. I got my verizon GS3 yesterday, and after rooting it on 4.1.1 I downloaded ota rootkeeper, backed up root, upgraded with the ota using TWRP, and restored root. Root is working fine on 4.1.2 but i got a message that said update failed. It has all the right info in about phone, the only issue i see is that I'm back on stick recovery. How is the best way to get custom recovery back? Do i need to do the full bootchain flash sequence in Odin, flash just recovery in Odin, or can i use rom manager to install recovery? Thanks!
Why can't u just download it again from the play store? If u initially had it all your info should still be on your phone; j7st need to reinstall recovery. I have to do this with CWM & TiBu every time I flash a new ROM.
In short just reinstall recovery. Hope this helps.
