I posted in another forum but I hoped maybe a dev could figure it out
I screwed up big time. I got my nexus s 4g and unlocked and rooted. all was going well and I went the custom rom route and used rom manager to do so. It was g found out after my radio didnt work. I tried to flash back to stock and it did. I found out it was gsm stock and I am a f#cking moron, so I'm stuck on stock, unrooted, no radio and no computer can it now, not the samsung prog, odin, or adb. the usb on pc will charge, but not push data, please can anyone help.
update: I have an epic, could I download the singed rstock rom, rename it update.zip, bluetooth it to the nexus and apply with stock recovery?
Have you tried reinstalling Samsung device drivers? Are you navigating to sdk/tools when you try adb?
This is not a development related topic. Things like this belong in q&a.

i have installed the drivers, and i have it set to cmd from anywhere. The computer cant see it at all
You flashed another phones radio, then propose to flash yet another phones rom to fix it... Dude.. Stop flashing and go read. A lot..

I have read, right now I am trying to get to stock on my nexus s 4g. I have no way to get files on it, since the usb will no longer transfer data. Thats the problem, I know I scewed up, I want to fix it is the thing
Post this in q&a. Dev is for dev. Unless you are writing code you shouldnt be making new threads here.
You will get help, just address it in the right forum.

Does wifi work? If yes try downloading a rom for your device from your phone directly and flash it within clockwork apk.

i 100% agree with you that this thread should be closed. but come on now dude, no need to be harsh on the guy. his head is probably all over the place now that the phone is not working let's just understand him.
to OP:
here was a similar thread and a similar problem to yours. apparently the guy could enable USB through clockworkmod recovery and flash a rom for his device.
as i understand you have stock recovery. what you should do is try to install clockwork (through fastboot) and enable usb from there.
N.B after flashing clockwork recovery thrpugh fastboot, do not reboot your phone. just enter recovery directly through bootloader.

thanks for the help but mine cant be seen in fastboot, either. sorry for posting the wrong thread, I just thought a dev may have a flashable radio or a different usb trick

I was nice to begin with. But you also need to quit feeding him. He will keep posting in this thread and not make another one in q&a as long as you keep helping him. He keeps posting, you keep posting. I have no understanding for people not following the rules. They are there to keep xda clean and foster development. If people are going to ignore them, then they need to leave.

oh come on!! the guy needs help...definitely its a wrong thread in a wrong section..but just help him out...i would suggest him to try fastboot on another computer or so..install fresh drivers and a fresh sdk ..and then try out dude...and it would be much better if u really post your queries on to Q & A section....people will surely help
Jesus Christ give the dude a break. Hes just lookin for some help. Who cares if he made a thread in the wrong place, i dont see how that affects anyone especially the wannabe mods. OP hope u get ur phone workin again, id help u if i could
The only way i know of getting an update.zip/recovery/image over myself is fastboot, (ie: fastboot flash image, fasboot boot) ...without that working i am unsure how to fix your problem.
Regarding the flame wars over the wrong section posting, surely keepign this ontopic and free from gripes until a mod moves it is the best way? (over reacting wierdo's )

You can't use cwm with this phone only the recovery and you should already have if your rooted.

I've been there so I'll help you out. Just follow the instructions on the following 2 YouTube vids:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5zoQxUOJgI&feature=BFa&list=UUUKQzwuURouARj0mfMBBsig
They're not the best videos but they get the job done...at the end you will be rooted and have the red CWM installed.

Wrong, if a person uses super one click to root it just gives you root access no custom recovery.

Eww, asking a noobie questions plus posting on the development thread. Will a moderator be my angel!
Anyways so you don't have to spam our forums with non-sense, follow this guide to the point. DON'T ever trust YouTube videos for hacking your phone, I learned that the hard way. The only true place to hack your phone is right here in XDA Forums.
My job here is done and thread reported.

Yes wrong thread, but he's a noob. YouTube videos actually work perfectly, I followed them to the T.
BTW it's a good thing this forum has people like you to keep it in check.

I sued both post to figured out how to install CMW successfully.
I have had the s3 since the release date a few months back and am quite satisfied so far. Ive been using android since the G1. Though the new ICS/JB builds are nice, I still like the feel of the old build.
Is it possible to revert back to the Android 1.5 Cupcake on my GS3? If so, how would I go about doing so....?
Im rooted, unlocked bootloader, stock Rom, currently running ICS 4.0.4
No you cannot as the phone was specifically made on ics; however you can try themes and such.

I am pretty new to this and I have had a hard time finding an answer via search. I have rooted my phone and I have the ★ [Rom][I535VRBMD3][4.1.2] Stock Root Odex/Deodex [05/29/13]★
Verizon is trying to push and update and I want to turn that off. I was hoping the ROM would of done that already. Can someone please tell me how to turn off the auto updates. Thanks!

If you have Titanium Backup I believe the program you freeze/disable is called SDM.
It wouldn't because it's a completely stock ROM. You'd have to flash a custom ROM to stop it automatically or do what the above post says.

So since Verizon is starting to push out the 4.2.2 my phone is now complaining that it wants to update. I don't really want to be forced into a new ROM whenever Verizon thinks it's a good time so I'm looking at my options for rooting and going with a custom ROM. However, I can't find which ROMs allow and which ones disallow the OTAs.
These two sound pretty good:
CleanRom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832070
BoneStock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275376
Is there a way to know without installing it?
Thanks,

Install any rom you want just delete the smd.apk with titanium backup and you won't get bugged for an ota and to be exact it's 4.1.2 ota.

Good call, I'll do that. Thanks!
Synergy and Hyper-drive are both excellent if you like stock plus S4 apps and customization options.
