Yes it says Fastboot USB in red
Have you got fastboot drivers installed? Check that in device manager. If so, what does fastboot devices say?

Did you get this phone with ics pre-installed or did you just get it? If your only solution is this in my opinion it is a much better solution anyway. For the drivers just use the first step in this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497404

Having trouble rooting my Nexus S

Hey,
When I first rooted my phone, it was easy and took 30 mins max, but now I've updated to jellybean and trying to root again, I just can't seem to install adb and the drivers (reinstalled OS).
I've tried various tutorials, but it's just not working.
If anyone could help via teamviewer, it'd be very much appreciated.

Why not just install a custom ROM. Isn't that what you're going to end up doing anyways?

Hi, thanks for telling me about this but once I've selected Nexus S blah... my phone reboots into fastboot mode and then on the tool window it just says,
< waiting for device >
I don't know why I'm having so much trouble, I've rooted many phones so far.

You need to install the Nexus S adb drivers. Just flash a ROM that's rooted already. There is a ota rooted ROM if you're trying to stay stock.

Recovery
Do you have a custom recovery installed such as CWM?
No I don't have a custom recovery because it was removed when I flashed ota jellybean

Yea, I've been telling him this. Quit trying to root your phone. Just install a ROM that's rooted already. Quicker and easier.

He can't flash it if he doesn't have root or fast boot! Try installing pdanet on tour computer, it magically made it work for me. Also try a couple different USB cables, for example my girlfriends USB cable that came with her WP7 doesn't let me do a adb or fastboot

Uhh he has fast boot. Vol up and power boots into fastboot. He doesn't need to be rooted to get there. Now from fastboot, install clockwork... then flash ROM. Simple.

Sounds like he is having problems with the Android SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Use the sticky to help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623481 or this

Or I could be wrong but I think he can't cmd fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
When I try to flash recovery via fast boot it just says waiting for device.
I have pdanet installed too.
I'm going to try it on my laptop tomorrow, maybe it will work on that.

No need for padnet. Just the right drivers and of course know how to install them. Go to nexushacks.com and watch the tutorial

Uhh he has fastboot on his phone but the fastboot commands are not working for him, aka he doesn't have fastboot.
Drivers and getting it is a total pain in the ass, keep trying new things and eventually it will work out. Did you try a different USB cable?

Uhh he does have fast boot. He just needs the adb drivers and the SDK. That is all. Then he can boot into fastboot then flash recovery then ROM. Viola!

No root needed, it will flash the recovery from download mode. It won't touch your data.

As Romman0 said, your data will be safe. The bootloader contains boot info for 3 different partitions; Android, Recovery, and Download/Odin Mode. Modifying one partition doesn't necessarily modify another. If you find an Odin package that is only the recovery image, Android partition (where root is located, if rooted) is unchanged

cant flash ota(solved)

i have downloaded android sdk and ota but the sdk manager doesnt work
i still tried flashing at first it shows some error in flashing and now the device cant be detected in fASTBOOT IS IT DUE TO FAULTY SDK?

I don't think your issue is due to SDK
Did you correctly set up Fastboot/ADB and install USB Drivers?
BTW flashing OTA zip only requires a custom recovery.

You can download the zip located in this post for fastboot and adb to work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51694329
Android SDK is not needed in this case

Can you run any other adb commands? adb devices for example?
Are you using your recovery properly to activate adb sideload mode?

So you've booted into recovery?
adb devices works there?
What recovery do you have?
how did you activate adb sideload in recovery?
What was the adb command you used to side load?
What is the full error?
Please answer all questions
