Yes phone booted in bootloader it say FAST BOOT & STATUS UNLOCKED, I can't enter in recoverymod, as I enter in recovery mod I get dead android with red ! mark.
When I purchased this phone (a few days back) I had Gingerbread, I updated it n due to low signals (I think) ICS installed properly but when it came to installing applications it got hanged, now I can't run applications properly as it reboot if I try to open any application.
I again try to update it from wifi from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1 ( As new update was available) but after complete download of JB when it started to installing I got that dead android sign with RED ! mark.
Do you have any idea what happened wrong?

You don't have a recovery and need to flash one using the toolkit..
1. DOWNLOAD CUSTOM RECOVERY... 2. OPEN TOOLKIT.. ADVANCED MENU/BOOT RECOVERY (this is only temporary) 3. CHANGE SCREEN SETTINGS TO ZERO (or the screen will go black and it's a pain) 4. MOUNT USB... 5. COPY RECOVERY ZIP FROM COMPUTER TO PHONE.. 6. USE RECOVERY TO INSTALL FROM SD / FLASH THE RECOVERY YOU COPIED.. 7. ENJOY YOUR CUSTOM RECOVERY..

Please guide me a little bit details as I'm new user of Nexus S & Thanks in advance..
You said install custom recovery right? now I have downloaded 2 files for Clockworkmod recovery 6.x.x.x. one is in .ZIP format & other is in .img format. Now the question is
1). Do I have to flash recovery by using this advance option of Nexus Root Tool Kit by clicking on FLASH PERMANENT & then clicking on recovery & then giving the path of CMW 6.x.x.x.IMG and then after giving the path clicking on ROOT & checking the "And also flash custom recovery" option?
2). Can I install .ZIP file CWM 6.x.x.x.ZIP by just putting it into the SD card of Nexus S, turning the phone on into RECOVERY mode and the selecting INSTALL .ZIP from SD card (Something like this) then locating CWM 6.x.x.x.ZIP & it will install it automatically?
I installed CWM recovery in my Samsung Galaxy Gio a year back & then installed Cyanogenmod in that phone but I have forgot the procedure but I think I did it like I entered into recovery mode by pressing some buttons & then install zip from SD (I think I did like this but not sure).
P.S: I can enter into recovery when I see DEAD ANDROID with RED ! then I press volume up + power button 2 times then it shows me stock recovery.
One last thing to ask, you said CHANGE SCREEN SETTING TO ZERO? What does it means? Screen setting of Laptop or Mobile (Brightness or what?)
Thank you very much for your support :highfive:

Option 2.. flash recovery zip... The screen setting is in the temporary recovery.. If it times out the screen will go black and you will have to use the Toolkit to reboot your phone.. If you use the recovery in my signature, it has usb mounting support.. other CWM's may not..

One more question just to conform something, can I use this Philz Touch 5.06.1 (Latest) on my STOCK ROM? I'm having ICS 4.0.4 build number IMM76D, can I flash this recovery? I have remember the old days when I flashed CWM in my Samsung Galaxy Gio, they had 4 types of CWM. One was for some RAW disk format, another was for EXT4 (Something like that).
Can I install it for I.C.S 4.0.4? Do I have to root my Nexus S I9023 after that or is it already rooted? that UNLOCK means my phone is rooted? What about the Super user application? DO I have to install in separately? Can I install Cyanogenmod after install this recovery or should I have to install Super user before installing Cyanogenmod? I have remember when I install Cyanogenmod on my Galaxy Gio, the Super User was already there..
Lots of questions for you again but these are just to conform that I'm leading towards right direction, please answer so that I must start flashing Philz Touch 5.06.1.
Thanks in advance :highfive:

1. YES
2. NO, unlocked is not rooted and you'll need a super user.. Most new (4.2.2) custom's have this pre-installed.. otherwise use a .zip or the recovery may have it..??

Hello,
I was trying to install Ubuntu on my nexus S. While installing i used the command
"fastboot flash boot bootUbuntu.img" instead of fastboot boot bootUbuntu.img.
I realized this later.Now i am not able to boot the Android 2.3 version also.
I had unlocked my bootloader using fastboot oem unlock
i am able to run the clockworkMod Recovery using the command "fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-crespo.img"
i am also able to boot in the fastboot mode.
In the fast boot mode it shows "no boot or recovery img"
I am also downloading the 2.3.3 version. Willl that help me?
please please pls help.
just use recovery and restore one of your nand backups.
I never took a backup.
Now all i get is while switching on the cell,is the fastmode displaying "no boot or recovery image found"...

You need to flash a recovery, then use that to flash any rom (which will contain a boot img as a part of it).

I am new to android. Can you give me the detailed steps how to solve my problem.
I can connect my phone in fastboot mode via the command line(Windows).
By "you need to flash a recovery" , did you meant "fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-crespo.img"
And i am not able to get anything by what you said "then use that to flash any rom (which will contain a boot img as a part of it)"..
Sorry for the inconvenience...Thanks once again...
Assuming your pc detects your phone and thd recovery file is in the same folder as your fastboot. Type this in:
Fastboot flash boot xxxxx
Xxxxx is your recovery.img file name. After that just install a new rom. Hope that helps.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
1. Download ClockworkMod recovery and place the .img file in the tools folder of the Android SDK.
2. Put phone in fastboot mode.
3. On computer do:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery c:\android\tools\recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.img
***Note that when you do the above you need to include whatever file path and file name is correct based on your setup.***
4. After it flashes, press volume down to get to recovery, and press power button to choose recovery. After a minute or two, ClockworkMod will appear.
5. Use volume down to navigate to Mounts and Storage and power to select it.
6. Use volume down to navigate to mount USB storage and power to select it.
7. Use windows explorer to copy a flashable zip of a rom or stock rom onto your sd card.
8. Choose Go Back from CWM on your phone, back to Mounts and storage menu.
9. Choose Go Back again to the main ClockwordMod menu.
10. Choose "install zip from sdcard."
11. Choose the flashable zip file you put on your sdcard in step 7. Select YES when prompted.
12. Reboot system now.
This will get your phone back into working order. If you still want help installing Ubuntu on your NS, I'm afraid I cannot help with that.
Well now i am getting some hope.But i am still stuck at step 7.From where do i copy flashable zip or a stock rom.
I downloaded android 2.3.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=965478

Yes, download it to your computer then, in CWM, mount phone as USB storage. Then on your computer copy that file, and open the E:\ or F:\ drive or whatever your phone mounted as, and paste it. Then unmount and continue with the steps.
it seems it's not working 4 me...while installing from zip file(Android 2.3.3),it says that installation failed
i exactly dont remember the exact error but it something said about "could not find /system/build.prop"..
I was able to install the cyanogenmod 7 for nexus S...

It sounds like the zip file of 2.3.3 that you downloaded was either a bad download or not a proper flashable zip. Do you still want to go back to Stock?
OK so if you still want to go back to stock, boot up CyanogenMod, download ROM Manager and then open it. Choose Download ROM, then choose Stock Images. There you should find a Stock 2.3.3 ROM you can download and flash. Then you will be back on completely stock, unrooted OTA.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
if you want to keep it simple and go back to stock unrooted OTA as @matt2053 suggested, do as he said and download ROM Manager, follow his @matt2053's instructions and flash the downloaded Stock 2.3.3 image with ROM Manager.
however, if you wish to keep your current data on the phone, and not flash a new rom, you can download a custom kernel from the development forum here at XDA, and flash it via Clockworkmod recovery as a .zip file and the phone should boot up.
Thanks a lot guys...
Just one quick question,is it possible to use cyanogenmod 7 as well as android 2.3.3 simultaneously..while rebooting can i get a 'grub' kind of thing on my phone...
CM technically is based On Android 2.3.3. But I don't know of a way to set up a "dual boot" environment on the Nexus. You can on the HTC HD2 but that's the only phone I know of.

So you can boot your phone normally, but you can't boot on recovery...hm and you said that you "flashed" CWM many times? Well then I'm going to give you an alternative way to install CWM recovery. So
1. Go in bootloop. Well I guess you know how but I will describe the way just in case. Bootloop is when the phone is on the loading screen with the hourglass. And to enter in bootloop usually (On my phone atleast) I have to hold down the "volume down" and the "End call button" Red one, and press the power up.
2. Connect your phone with your pc via usb.
3. Download the attached file below.
4. Extract the file you downloaded and navigate from pc in the "fastboot" folder. Double click the "install-recovery-windows.bat" file.
After doing these steps you should have CWM 5.0.2.7 ready to boot.

It's probably a bad flash, he needs to wipe/factory reset and then flash a rom again.

What do you mean by "supports" ?
Which version of recovery you should install on your phone just has to do with what Rom you want to install, or to be more accurate which version of android your ROM has.
So you should install your recovery mode depending on what you want.
1. AmonRA Recovery 1.6.2 - Link (for android 2.1)
2. V1.8.1.4 recovery - Link (For Android 2.2)
4. Recovery CMW Ascend - Link (For android 2.3+ )
5. Recovery 4.0.1.5 - Link (2.2-2.3+)
6. Recovery 5.0.2.3 - Link And instalation Link (for android 2.3+)
7. Recovery 5.0.2.6 - Link (For android 2.3+)
8. Recovery 5.0.2.7 - Link (For android 2.3+)
The example above is taken from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1608000 In the second post.
So to be quick, there is no restriction on your recovery you can use whichever you need to.

15. You open and use the toolkit, ADVANCED/ BOOT RECOVERY... WIPE (DALVIK, CACHE, DATA)/ INSTALL ZIP(s) wiping dalvik and cache for additional installs.. ROM, then KERNEL, then ect..

hello my name is Daniele. I want to say that it is my first post / thread and I tried to read all the guides regarding these topics before asking for help!
So : i've bought the mediacom 950s2-3g (5 day ago) and 4 day ago i make a mistake during the upgrade. Unfortunately I use the wrong rom to upgrade (using the 950s2 without 3g stock-rom). After that the external sd card don't work anymore. The table is able to understand if is insert or not but i can't mount it.
For this reason I try to upgrade the right firmware with ADB sideload from stock android recovery. The first problem has been the "ro.build.date.utc" value, it was older in the 3G stock rom thant the other (firmware of 950s2 without 3g) and so i receive the error :
"!less_than_int( 1367979208, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))"
and i can't use it(with recovery stock).
So i decided to install CWM recovery using the guide : androtab . info/clockworkmod/rockchip/install but i doesn't work for me :crying: (tablet rootet before )! everything seems to go well during the "flash_image recovery recovery.img" but every time that i restart tablet with "adb reboot recovery" or with the combo-key in the tablet the recovery don't start anymore .... (long time to start in the place of recovery menu).
And now what can i try ? Fastboot ? I'm not able to start in mediacom the "bootloader menu" (i'm not sure) i think there's not! When i send to ADB "adb reboot bootloader" the tablet reboot simply.
I trie also CWM installed from the tool "CWM recovery" from google play, the device (it's not in the list but i use a similar samsung galaxy s2 - someone said the works for him with 950s2) reboot in recovery (version 2,4,5,6, before to install CWM manually it works) but from the menu it's not able to mount anything : /system, /cache, /sd ... and so it's not able to read the "update.zip".
May be the worst English of ever, but read this post please ...
thanks!!

yes and no, there is a processes called j-taging (used for xboxs also) that you are able to flash a os onto your device so like flashing a stock rom onto a phone that was hard bricked, dosen't turn on no power no cwm no download mode no bootloader nothing. but it would be hard since your device is a off brand made device so nobody would want to try to fix it.

Installing CWM Recovery + Rooting Samsung Galaxy J7 prime ( SM-G610F/SM-G610M )
Tested & WorkingKnow Issue
SDCARD & EXTSDCARD not mounting in CWM ( Not being able to flash/install ZIPs )
FixI suggest you to Install zip using sideload, here's a step by step guide :
First boot up your phone into CWM recovery
Go to Install zip update package and select Install zip from sideload
Now connect your android device to your computer
Download this and extract it.
Open command prompt in the ADB folder (mfastboot-v2 folder) by right clicking in the empty space of the folder while holding the Shift key.
Copy the Zip file you want to install on your device to the ADB folder, for example Xposed.zip.
Run the following command to sideload zip to your phone : adb sideload <filename.Zip>
Example adb sideload Xposed.zip
Voila! That's how you can flash Zip files
First Part: Installing CWM Recovery
NOTE BEFORE
Please make sure to follow the guide carefully and thoroughly as i won't be responsible for any damages caused to your device and also keep in mind that rooting your phone will automatically void your warranty.
MUST READ
Before you start, please note that this root has only been tested on the SM-G610F and SM-G610M variants of the Samsung Galaxy J7 prime, so kindly check your phone's variant before proceeding.(Check the back of your device)
Required Files:
CWM & ROOT
Samsung USB Driver
ADB USB Driver
How to install CWM Recovery
After downloading the required files make sure your system has an active Samsung USB Driver or you can simply download it from here
Also don't forget to Enable USB Debugging & Unlock OEM, this can be done by going to Developer Options and make sure to have these 2 boxes checked.
Then go to Lockscreen and Security under Settings and enable Unknown Sources.
With these done we are ready to kick-off!
Step by Step Instructions
STEP 1 : Connect your phone to your computer & Allow access to your device when the MTP Connection box pops up
STEP 2 : Now go to the ROOT J7 PRIME(2016) folder ( you will need to extract the rar file) you just downloaded and run 1-EnterDownloadMode.bat
STEP 3 : Wait for the phone to reboot into Download Mode ( If nothing happens after running 1-EnterDownloadMode.bat then you might need to disconnect and reconnect your USB cable and Allow USB Debugging (Check Always allow from this computer) when it prompts you. With this done, your device should automatically reboot into Downloading Mode.
STEP 4 : In Downloading Mode Run Odinv3.10.7.exe (Found in ROOT J7 PRIME(2016) folder) and click on AP and open
SM-G610_cwm.tar from ROOT J7 PRIME(2016) folder
After this go to Options in Odinv3.10.7.exe and uncheck both Auto Reboot & F Reset Time and finally click on start to execute the installation of CWM recovery. Wait for it to finish (When it says 'PASS!') and after that press and hold the Volume Down, Power and Home Button together ( To get out of download Mode ) and when you see the phone gets rebooted press and hold Volume Up, Power button and Home button to boot into CWM Recovery
STEP 5 : Enjoy! You now have CWM recovery installed
Second Part: Installing SuperSU
MUST READ
Use Volume buttons and power button in CWM Recovery to navigate through and select the different options.
How to Root
STEP 1 : In CWM Recovery, go to install zip package and then select install zip from sideload.
At this point you will have to connect your device to your computer and once done run ROOT.bat from ROOT J7 PRIME(2016) folder and wait for it to finish.
STEP 2 : Now run 3-Reboot.bat from ROOT J7 PRIME(2016) folder and you should see your phone get rebooted.
STEP 3 : Enjoy! You have just rooted your phone!
If you want to flash the stock recovery just repeat the steps for installing CWM but select SM-G610F_stock_recovery.tar or
SM-G610M_stock_recovery.tar instead of SM-G610_cwm.tar
P.S You now have a voided warranty
Cheers!

Just repeat all the steps from the beginning and see if it works..
Btw you are supposed to boot into Downloading mode and from there flash CWM Recovery using Odin..i don't know what you have missed.
