This is the official ota..so you'll need to flash back to stock 2.3.6 before this can be flashed as is.. OR, just wait for a dev to do his magic and add su and package in an unsigned zip.

[Nexus S General] the7thson:
Can anyone please verify that this will work?

- First, make a nandroid back up of current custom ROM.

- Update ROM to 4.0.3 using ROM manager.

- Try the new ROM

- If I need to roll back to my original ROM, can I just do a restore of the backup from ROM manager?

My phone is mission critical for work and I want to make sure I can roll back later tonight.

Thank you in advance.

[Nexus S General] Monnyaa:
Complete n00b question (haven't messed with stuff like this before):

Will all my data/apps be there after the update or do I need to back-up?

I have stock 2.3.6.

I9020

Edit: It's also a UK version but I suppose it will be fine.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
lol, did you expect that to work?
[Nexus S General] jvanlew:
The stock 2.3.6 image in Rom Manager (under stock images I think)? I think that's for T-Mobile. You'll need to flash an AT&T radio. More importantly, the ICS update worked for you?
[Nexus S General] AaronMT:
Can the OP make mention in the first thread saying this won't work on I9020A?
[Nexus S General] waterface:
Official ICS OTA good for Nexus S i9020T?

[Nexus S General] Soldier Blue:
I always wipe data and cache, I mean the apps which are linked to my google account. So when it sync-updates, it installs old crap I haven't used for many months. I either turn off sync or uninstall each one after it downloads. I want to unlink these apps from my account completely. How?
[Nexus S General] jvanlew:
Wow, I'd like to know that as well. I don't know of a way to do that.
[Nexus S General] Coentje44:

[Nexus S General] Mecid8:
i am on stock kernel with netarchy kernel. But i cant install this update. error while verifing system. assert failed with some .so file.
[Nexus S General] mike.b93:
it definitely seems to work if you flash stock 2.3.6 before. I will report if something comes up
[Nexus S General] holtenc:
nope. but hell I was board.

i'll track it down and give it a try.

Got it rooted using the 3.03 su binary installed via clockwork! Just because Superuser was installed, doesnt mean its rooted. You need to flash su again.

http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/su-bin-3.0.3-d-signed.zip
[Nexus S General] brenix:
FYI, the OTA update overwrites the recovery.. If you want to get back into clockwork, you will need to re-flash the img
[Nexus S General] goodtom:
wondering will this release help all the developers to fix all the "current not working" features in ICS, such as camera effect etc.
[Nexus S General] krazykat:
You wouldn't lose root after applying update right? =/ Sorry flashing this for my mom's nexus. I'm a GSII. Ahaha thanks in advance!

Or how would you keep root..? Tutorial of some kind? Thanks!
[Nexus S General] jvanlew:
You should be able to, yeah. If your bootloader is locked, I think it'll wipe if you do a fastboot oem unlock in order to flash a new recovery. I seem to remember this happening to me on GB.

If your bootloader is already unlocked, no worries. :)
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
face lock just a GN feature?
[Nexus S General] sinik420:
Lmao considering its the official OTA, I'd say the stuff should work...
[Nexus S General] boykioy:
hmm superuse is installed, but i have no root rights. Tryied to reroot agin but still i have no root access..
[Nexus S General] jvanlew:
I don't know this for a fact but I'd assume that yes, you would lose root if you flashed the official update from Google.
[Nexus S General] raheelc:
I have a gt-i9023

Its not the tmobile version, or the att version....im guessing its the standard unbranded version of the phone...but im not sure...is there anyway to check if it is carrier branded? also, suppose its not carrier branded, would i still be able to use this update?

[Nexus S General] Soldier Blue:
Anyone else reduce the animation and transition to 0.5x? I find the default to be intolerably slow, and it makes me wonder how ICS has a good reputation for quick responsiveness.

Oh yeah, the browser got a small update. In the experimental "wheel from left" feature, you can open new tab and go to bookmarks now. Before it only had three options and getting to bookmarks was a painful process. At least in alpha11.

You root it same way as with gingerbread, fastboot into clockwork mod with the su binary in your sd card, then install su again

Would flashing an ATT radio not work once you have clockworkmod?
[Nexus S General] mrbeardy:
Try updating the binary a second time from inside the superuser app after you installed the binary from clockwork.

[Nexus S General] holtenc:
yeah thats where got the radio. but it doesn't specify which is for att. just that they are for 9020a,

either way I figured it out. ATT needs the UCKE1 radio. and it works

so ive got GT-I9020A on AT&T working with this ICS ---- WOOT

install stock 2.3.6, reboot, login normally, flash recovery, install ICS, reboot. I did this way.

I no longer have root after the flash but I did before.

[Nexus S General] fuqi:

[Nexus S General] mrbeardy:
You dont even need to reboot it, flash the 2.3.6 then you can flash the ics update straight away. That worked for me
[Nexus S General] amjad_2020:
what superuser your using 3.0.3 or 3.0.7 :confused:
[Nexus S General] jvanlew:
I thought the i9020a is the NS for AT&T. I could be wrong though. Anyway, congrats on getting it working. :)

In case anyone wants to follow in your footsteps, can you do a step-by-step of what you did?
[Nexus S General] juliano_q:
The difference is that on Checkking installed version = mine is legacy and yours is 3.0.3, even after I flashed su on recovery. What zip did you used?
[Nexus S General] kriskovski:
im getting error.

[Nexus S General] waterface:

the i9020a is the NS for AT&T. that's what I have.

all I did was flash 2.3.6 from the ROM manager site, wipe. reboot. flash ics. flash correct radio.
