ok guys putting the finishing touches on 5.0, since i no longer have a nexus dont suppose a brave soul out there would be so kind as to test for me? i reworked it all so now the beginning menu asks if your bootloader is already unlock (allowing you to skip that nasty freeze at unlock command) as well as adding support for teh new galaxy nexus (gsm version only atm when there is cwm for the verizon/lte version ill add that one as well)

http://goo.gl/2DBZk

here is teh download link for 5.0 :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
If only this came out yesterday when I was redoing my device :p

I dunno Shabby.... Brave soul huh?? Device gonna freaking blow up or something... LOL...

I'm sure it will work out good for whoever takes the first jump at it... I do have it downloaded :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
hahaha i re-ordered the menus and changed things up a bit. once chris finishes up mergeing acs recovery to latest version on teh epic myself and him are gunna look into porting it, so perhaps there will be 3 entries for the phones :P
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Shark_On_Land:
Omg its shappy ficken penguin!! I read about u on the interweb!! You got ripped off 100$ for a app you made that Microsoft stole from you just so they could try to Bible developers to develop for their new mango os.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ZiggSVO:
:-) yes!! I just posted in the epic touch dev forum on this hoping it would get ported to the nexus lol.

If it does that would be awesome
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] cyburke:
thanks for this... it's finally time for me to put my Hero CDMA to rest and i've picked up a very nice used NS4G.

can't wait to root! :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
So chris is going to consider bringing the ACS version of CWM to the Nexus for us like I asked? That would be awesome....
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Testing, testing, 1,2,3?

I'd be happy to help you out Shabby, I'll test out both of the recoveries in a few minutes and let you know how everything goes from there (Nexus S 4G only).

I'll keep this post updated if anything goes amiss.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] cyburke:
hello there... i first want to say thanks for this great program. I just picked up my first NS4G yesterday and was able to use the latest 5.0 and root today!

when i try to Reboot into Recovery - from the ROM Manager - it reboots the phone, and then after a few seconds i see an exclamation point sign, inside a triangle, with an android guy next to it.

have tried searching, but can't seem to find an answer...?

i ran the root no problem and was in CWM of course to finish all the steps and apply the root.zip... when i went into the actual phone OS, and installed ROM Manager, it seemed to think i did not have CWM installed. figuring it could not hurt to re-apply - i chose to flash CWM from the ROM manager.

can anyone assist? i'd like to be able to boot into CWM obviously so i can install a ROM and a Kernel.

THANKS@!

---------- Post added at 11:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 PM ----------

^ ... quick response. i just downloaded and flashed the prior version of recovery and i'm now booting into it no problem. 5.0.1.0

thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
Sounds like you borked your CWM on the device when you allowed ROM Manager to overwrite the CWM installed by One Click Root.

Actually this makes no sense to me, you get One Click Root which roots and installed in this case the latest CWM available being that Shabby just updated it 2 days ago and then go install ROM Manager to do the same exact things that CWM does... Then you allowed ROM Manager to install CWM recovery over what you just installed...

Best bet is to go back and run the One Click Root again and leave it at that... You want to use ROM Manager to stay in the loop for the latest builds supported by ROM Manager that fine but don't have one override the other...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
Acs recovery? Please say it ain't so... I've been requestiing this for a while now .... ::fingerscrossed::

EDIT: Was able to unlock bootloader with 5.0 - rooted with Superboot.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Whoops

Completely forgot about this, but v5.0 works wonders on my Nexus S 4G. Currently using the alternative recovery and it's perfect.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] the1dynasty:
thanks for this!!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] vegasdgk:
So if I have the phones bootloader unlocked but no root or cwm I can do it over right
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] vegasdgk:
or go back to stock the do the one click?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] infamousteeboy:
aiight...im REALLY confused ive installed the drivers, usb debugging is enabeld, ive run this about 16 times (serious!) and i dont know why but i keep getting waiting for device and it jus sits there doesn't change or anything...can anybody help me out please
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] davemw2:
I installed the drivers in the zip but when the phone goes into bootloader for some reason my computer doesnt recognize it and says "android 1". Any help? Also when it DOES go into bootloader there is no unlock option. im experienced at rooting but im lost on this one.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] infamousteeboy:
There's a certain way to install the drivers I'll find you the link I used. Give me a sec CLICK RIGHT HERE follow this guide to the "tee" to install the drivers correctly hope this helps.

TrevE Supporter!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] davemw2:
I figured it out. Took a few hours but I got it. Thanks anyways.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] infamousteeboy:
Oh ok cool..imma take a wild guess "you didn't put the phone in fastboot"

TrevE Supporter!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] davemw2:
No I had to install pda drivers manually when new hardware popped up.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bangishotyou:
Just wanted to say thanks for this. I've been rooting and flashing roms for quite some time now, just got an Android phone of my own yesterday. Nexus S 4G obviously. And for some reason no matter what I did I couldn't get any drivers to install or fastboot to unlock the phone, to the point that I was ready to give up.

Gave this a go though and wahlah! In no time at all I was rooted and had CWM on my device. So thanks.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
glad everyone is enjoying it, anyone got any ideas on what to add onto this? :D

im uploading it all onto my github. ive got versions 1,3,4,5 i seem to be missing 2.0 so that will be forever lost in history ;) but at least i can show the changes over time and then anyone can see how it works etc and fork it if they want for future nexus devices.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shapechanger:
I am having the same problem as a previous person. I get no unlock bootloader windows after using the cmd prompt. It just loads to the menu with reboot loader, recovery, reboot and power off.

What do i do?

I have a Nexus S 4g on sprint.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] th3gh05t:
Is v4.0 the latest version of One Click? :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
oh crap thanks for reminding me :) 5.1 is
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bibi12:
It didn't work for me

I get "Error: Device not found"

I DO have it in USB debugging mode

I DID try several USB cables, ports and two windows computers

I WAS an administrator on both of them

I DID install the USB device drivers first

I DID reboot, wait and try several times

Still same error ... :-(

My phone is a Samsung Nexus S 4G with Android 2.3.7 with Sprint provider

Don't know what else I can try... :-(
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] gambrinusboy:
I have the exacts same phone/build number and I was having the exact same problem. But even though i had installed the drivers, it turned out that the usb driver was not properly installed.

I followed this info in this other thread to manually update my driver then everything worked as it should.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] DNick:
So I'm trying to root my girlfriends NS4G. I bought it for her used, and turns out the bootloader is already unlocked. But when running this, it gets stuck waiting for device after I select what phone it is, then after I select to root and flash CWM. I have run the exe for the drivers already. I don't know what to do. Please help.

EDIT: Just saw the post above me. That sorted it out for me.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mrtonee:
i have use this before and it worked great, now i am trying it again and keeps sayin i am missing a adb.exe file??
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Rblacula:
does this work with a Motorola Xoom? I assume it would; just making sure
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
ironically enough, i am now in posession of a xoom that i ordered from 1saleaday.com. and LITERALLY updating this to work on it right now XD
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] tcol41:
Can you unroot your phone with this?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] INKRO:
Argh, I seem to have successfully unrooted my Nexus S 9020t and had it rebooted back in, but while it was booting up again I accidentally pressed a button and it told me "error: device not found" twice followed by "<waiting for device>".

Unfortunately my phone has already been rebooted, but it still seems to be waiting for my device. I'm not sure if I can disconnect this device from USB while this is going on, so uh, what do I do?

Edit: I guess I should start by posting in the right forum. Sorry guys...or maybe not, apparently I can't post on the other forum, but this one is fine. Weird.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Lelouche:
Okay, I've tried running this but it always fails to write the recovery.. any help with this?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mipd1980:
Sprint NS4G ICS 4.0.4 on Sprint

Ok so there is an issue for sure, I was able to Unlock the bootloader and flash Clockwork Mod Recovery but Titanium Backup and Clockwork Mod kept saying that they could not get superuser access. I freaked out a little bit but then I went back to the posts from a few days back on ACS Syndicate forums and saw the Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip post, so I searched from my phone and downloaded it from //androidsu .com /superuser Rebooted to Recovery and flashed it thru CWM and long and behold I have root access thru superuser now. Just thought I would make it a little more clear for future reference.

Thanks.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] robogoflow:
Thank you. I had the same problem on my NS4G. I did the steps successfully and had the "cmw based recovery" installed along with bootloader unlocked but setcpu and rom manager wouldnt pop up with allow or deny options from superuser so did some research and went back to the original thread where i first downloaded one click and it was the last comment posted that work. Went to androidsu. c o m and downloaded the zip. (Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip place on sd card.>reboot into recovery> click install zip from sd card> and select file> reboot and good to go) Just thought i put the steps for other people stuck like me. thanks again.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] hadesboy2:
Thanks shabbypenguin for the exploit.

I have an NS4g running Android version 4.0.4, will this ON click root v. 5.1 still work? Also will I lose everything on my phone/sd including apps?

Thanks.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bangishotyou:
This should work, as there's little difference in rooting procedures. However, if it doesn't for whatever reason feel free to PM me, I'm not the OP but I'll help you get your device rooted if this isn't working. I usually do things the manual way but when I first rooted my Nexus S 4G I used this one-click method.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] lurtis:
Its been a while since I used this but if I recall it mentions in the process that you will lose your SD card files but I don't think it wiped my ns4g. Be safe to backup to a computer regardless. And yes it works on 4.04
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigfdaddy:
i have gone throught the steps but when i cycle throught the options to unlock its not their.i get start,recovery,off.... i cant seem to find unlock in the options when i cycle throug. have tried this process about 5 times with same results...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] hadesboy2:
Thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] boytoreckonwith:
no go

Same here. No unlock screen. It just stays on bootloader with my 4 options...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Woozy82:
Having problems with the root part, running 4.0.4. The boot loader unlock and the acs recovery worked fine, the root.zip says root successful or complete, even have superuser but programs like ad free and titanium backup say I'm not rooted is there a fix for this without wiping phone & SD memory
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] cteneyck:
root.zip doesn't seem to be working FYI.

Update: Looks like you can download the Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip for ARM processors and flash it in recovery. Creds to ChainsDD!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Woozy82:
That worked thanks my friend
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shawn718:
Help rooting

Can sumone please help me. Stuck at fastboot screen. I have all drivers. Running 4.0.4. Run ADB and everything is good. Help please..
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
hey guys i know i havent been around much, been busy with a lot of personal things and other projects anyways.. finally got around to updating this

www.Shabbypenguin.com/Android/Scripts/One-Click-Nexus-6.5.zip

and yes it is only supposed to be 9MB's ;). it downloads the device you need's recovery on the fly (i actually timed it with when it reboots your device so you dont notice it as much). fully tested on my sprint galaxy nexus, need feedback on other devices tho. should work on all nexus s/4g, galaxy nexus, and nexus 7 devices :)

lemme know what you guys think :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Miikessol:
Thanks :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ApexPredatorBoids:
I don't actually own a Nexus, I have an Infuse 4G, so I can't really test out the steps for myself. I'm looking for a simple root option to point out to someone I actually don't know in real life. Someone on a reptile forum I frequent asked me if I could help them root their Nexus S that's running JB. He claims that in Settings>About Phone, it simplly lists his model number as "Nexus S", which seems odd to me, so I wanna make sure that whatever root method I direct him to will work with ALL the S variants. Can anyone confirm that the method from the above quote in fact does work, and with ANY NS? Also, what are the installation instructions? Is it still the same as what may be in the video from the OP? Thanks.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
as stated it will work with all nexus s devices, download teh zip, install the drivers, run the one-click-nexus-6.5 batch script :)

i am currently in the process of working on converting it to linux/mac.. was kinda hoping i would get some feedback on the new version :/

edit rather than bumping this thread just gunna comment in here

7.0

Added support for linux/mac
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bender29:
Friend's NS4G was going bonkers (apps crashing everywhere, phone rebooting randomly, etc). Decided to factory reset and unlock and root the thing.

However, I encountered a possible bug in 7.2 version - seems like it downloaded the recovery.img file to this path:

(...)\One-Click-Nexus\Files\crespo4g\CWMT\www.shabbypenguin.com\Android\Scripts\Nexus-Files\Recoveries\crespo4g\CWMT

when the batch file was looking for it under (...)Files\crespo4g\CWMT\

In the end, I just manually executed the fastboot flash command from the proper directory. Thanks though, this saved me some time looking for the info and right files in one place.

(Sad end to story is that phone still acts weird with apps crashing, ANRs everywhere. Probably a hardware issue at this point.)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Woozy82:
Not a hardware issue its software. Reinstall stock
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] lilmexx:
I'm sorry if this is a repeat.. But does this method wipe the sdcard as some other methods do??

Thanks
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bender29:
That's what I thought too. But the phone was originally stock ICS, locked bootloader, and rooted. All I did was factory wipe, unlock bootloader, and root.

On second thought, I think I understand what you're saying - stock ROM image got corrupt somehow, so reinstalling the stock image should help things. Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Yes, unlocking the bootloader wiped the internal storage of the phone.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Woozy82:
Loading stock will remove root and likely to wipe SD memory it shouldn't lock the bootloader again. You can backup SD memory to PC from recovery before loading stock or just try reinstalling your custom rom if you still get a lot of force closed then load stock
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
interesting i dont have windows so i cant test, is it just with that one recovery? or all of them?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bender29:
It was with both cwm and cwmt at least. Didn't try twm.

Is that the path they're stored under on the server? Might be because of a wget option under windows.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] hlxanthus:
I didn't dig too deep but I had that issue too. I had v5.2 on my PC and used that to install recovery.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
works fine on linux i think its my windows scripting :/ ill have to install it to test it out later today :(
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bender29:
Looks like "wget -q ..." in your shell script and "wget -p ..." in the batch file. Changing to "wget -q ..." in the batch file seems to fix all the extra directories.

Couldn't tell from the help what the -p option does on the windows binary, but doesn't seem desirable.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
doh!

thanks for the assistance :) its all fixed now
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] robogoflow:
Just ran 7.2 with the latest jellybean ota.i figured it supported nexus 7 than it would support jellybean.

Well it unlocked bootloader and thats all.

It rebooted and the program didnt give me anymore options like cwm or twrp.

I have no recovery it shows android with a red caution triangle but didnt brick it at least!

Going to look how to flash a recovery manually. or stick to stock

Edit. When this happens and the program does not say anything, you need to go to settings>developers options> and enable usb debugging again.

I restarted the program and ran from step two. It successfully installed CWMT and SuperSU... Super Happy but will sadly be going back to stock. i just got bored.

This penguin sure is shabby. Once again, This does successfully root the new OTA jellybean 4.1.1
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
what device did you run this on? at the beginning did it say what device you were using?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] robogoflow:
Nexus s 4g.

Your program called it crespo4g.

I retried and successfully rooted.

When it wiped usb debugging was shut off so i needed to enable it again.

This came after files were pushed and fastboot was unlocked.

Great program btw. Makes rooting so simple.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Exit_Only:
This says "app" in the title. Yet it is only a zip file??? Definitely not an app. :(
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] srthimsen:
I believe it's called that because you run a batch file on the PC, which guides you through the process. I agree it may be a little misleading, but I can say it works well and it's easy to do so!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Exit_Only:
Very misleading :(
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Woozy82:
I have a nexus s 4g sprint on 4.0.4 rooted and unlocked bootloader, I'm about to do the 4.1 ota upgrade, is there anything I need to do before upgrading like unroot or back memory, is there anything I need to know be for I run this root program after the upgrade
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bnitty:
my bootloader is still unlocked, or at least I still have the unlocked lock when booting up, but I lost root when I accepted the 4.1.1 ota. anyway to do a simple root without a pc/laptop bkuz I won't be around one for a few days...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bnitty:
did this thread die???? :banghead:

courtesy of my Jelly Bean'd Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2.1
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
no, just this is a script for computers. there is no way to flash anything without you having root/fastboot access
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bnitty:
I get to the point where it asks 1) root and install CWM 6.0.1.0 & it starts dl'n it and stays "wating for device" while on my phone it takes me to the reboot bootloader reboot recovery power off screen. any ideas what's wrong?

NS4G JB 4.1.1 can't get root

I tried this One-Click-root but couldn't get the drivers to work. Then used the Simple Root/Unroot method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1088494.

I got the bootloader unlocked and installed CWM v3.1.0.1. Also have Superuser and Root Checker installed. When I try to verify root access, Root Checker tells me ... Sorry no proper access.

I'm debating whether I could just flash a root.zip such as QBKing77 did in his video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSD92Qjt5Og&list=PLCB2387B9E7BAD6B3&index=28&feature=plpp_video at 8:50 min. I would have tried it but all i can download is OCR v7.2 not v4 as QBKing had. The updated version of OCR doesn't have such a zip file.

BTW just realized that I'm loosing CWM every time I'm rebooting, leaving me with the BAD little red triangle (no recovery found) Interesting is that the phone automatically reboots (successful) after showing the triangle for a minute or so!

Please, can anyone help me get root. Thanks :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HackGerm:
Just wondering, has anyone found a way to root the NS4G on Jelly Bean 4.1.1?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] hlxanthus:
The process is exactly the same to root, so all the other root tools used previously are valid
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HackGerm:
Please help ... I'm stuck

Thanks for the answer!!

I does have a couple of questions ...

(1) what could be preventing the Samsung drivers from being installed properly, I've try it on two computers now, the installer tells me they are installed successful, but when i run Shabby's batch file the computer notifies me of missing drivers. I have rebooted several times!

(2) Using another method (Simple Root/Unroot) I got unlocked and installed CWM, but then when I try to go back into recovery it can't find CWM, and the phone just reboots.

(3) based on being unlocked with an unstable recovery is it save to flash Shabby's version 4 root.zip file (if I can find it somewhere). Speaking of which does anyone have a copy of Shabby's v4 standalone root.zip file I could flash. Seems his version 4 had such a separate ZIP file (based on QBKing's video) but the current v7.2 and older v6 and v6.2 do not.

Thanks :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
1) the script isnt finding your device, apologies but there is nothing i can do about that.

2) sounds like it didnt remove everything properly

3) yes it does, Files/root contains the zip where its a modified version of supersu

i asked qbking to make a newer video to help alleviate some confusion, he is busy with newer phones
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HackGerm:
Android SDK vs Samsung drivers for this sript

Thanks so much for your responses, really appreciate them!!

I'll keep searching for the right drivers for this phone. I am a bit confused about these because on the one hand they are supposed to be included with the Android SDK, on the other hand there are Samsung drivers people are mentioning?! Not sure which to use.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
updated to version 8.0 :)

now it copies the supersu.zip and attempts to flash it for you automatically :)
