First download this : http://www.4shared.com/zip/2L09-JyW/Root_Nexus_S.html

Just unpack , connect your device and click run.bat - that will root your phone and installed new ClockWordMod Recovery

After that you need : remove install-recovery.sh just in .....

run in windows-> Start->at the search bar write cmd and navigate into your android sdk is installed

For me :

C:/"Programs and Files (x86)"/Android/android-sdk/tools/>adb shell

# rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

#exit

or with Root Explorer into system/etc/install-recovery.sh just renam it (ex. : .sh.old)

I would try downloading the full OTA from this thread, rename it to update.zip (for easy typing), place it in a directory where you can run fastboot, then use the command:

If it bugs you the bootloader isn't unlcoked before flashing can't you just use

fastboot oem unlock

then commence with flashing your stock image?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skyap:
I had this problem in December. I tried everything you tried without any luck so eventually took it back for warranty repair. Unfortunately I had some water damage from 9 months before so they wouldn't touch it. Luckily I got it replaced on my phone insurance but they said it couldn't repaired.

As far as I know it's a hardware fault. With CWM it looked like I could transfer files into the sd but they would disappear! I was able to use Fastboot and Odin but no joy. I had the same errors when trying to apply update using fastboot and never found answers about the "missing" files.

Sorry to come with bad news and good luck! I'm worried it'll happen to my replacement handset so keen to know if you resolve it.

I suspect that since this has been so long with no resolve that your internal SD card is toast. Since the phone is locked, we can't know for sure though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaX05:
Do this..

Connect your device to your pc or mac.

Boot into your bootloader & mount SD card.. your SD card folder will pop up on your PC or Mac.

Drag a rom.zip file of your choice in there and flash a the rom using cwm.

It should boot up just fine.

I'm having a similar issue, but don't know if it's totally related.

My brother gave me his Nexus S because it didn't seem to be cooperating. 6/10 times, it hangs on the Google boot screen. However, the other part of the time, it will boot to ICS or Gingerbread. I've tried wiping the cache and formatting the card with both stock and Clockwork, but to no avail.

I'm pretty familiar with Samsung phones, but it seems to be hardware related, if I had to take a guess. Is it worth cranking this puppy open and trying to replace the internal SD card?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t1n0m3n:

I have the same problem. As far as I can remember, I mounted internal sdcard as USB storage before (and connected to the computer). Looks like path to /sys usb-host LUN device has changed in new kernel and has not been changed in CWM recovery. Does anybody has ideas?

Unfortunately, I didn't find cwm recovery sources in google so can't fix the problem myself :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vintozver:
The issue exists in all CWM Recoveries 5.0.2.7. Surprisignly, the pathes are fully correct (looked into binaries inside)

Actually, if you're on USB, you can share either partition or emmc itself with your PC by means of issuing command in adb shell:

echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0

to unmount, type

echo "" > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0

"Sharing" the whole disk is strongly not recommended as you can break GPT (partition table) of emmc, and your phone will be bricked.

You do this on your own risk.

Just looking for bit of advice.

My device is still on 4.0.1 ITL41D and has not received any updates at all. Luckily i have come across no problems apart from relatively poor battery life.My question is can i manually upgrade to 4.0.2 directly from my present build or would i have to update to 41F first ?

I have posted this in another thread in the general forum and received no answer.

Can anybody help ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HcMAX:

Im not an expert, however you need to root, unlock bootloader and then install a custom rom or a factory image.

I believe you can't update directly without doing those steps.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
You don't need to root at all! You do, though, need to be unlocked. If you're not it WILL wipe the device clean so back anything up you want first.

Download this:

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/yakju-icl53f-factory-89fccaac.tgz

Extract it somewhere and then use the following fastboot commands to flash it:

fastboot flash bootloader <bootloader image>

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio <radio image>

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot -w update <rom image>

OK... Rooted my GS2 with CF-Root v5.0, flashed to CheckromRevoHD v4 and installed mods etc.

However, still can't connect any bluetooth gamepads (Wiimote/Sixaxis)? I can only assume I'm still using the Samsung Bluetooth driver? :confused:

Please could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Wiimote doesn't yet work with stock ROMs, but PS3 controllers work fine in combination with the Sixasis app on the market.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mremulator:
?? I'm not using a stock ROM though. I'm using CheckRom RevoHD v4.

I have seen numerous YouTube vids of folk using their GS 2's with a Wiimote. However, not sure which ROM? MIUI perhaps??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Kinda nitpicking, but fine, I should have said stock based ROM.

So from that you should be able to deduce information about non-stock based ROMs (AOSP).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mremulator:
Apologies if you thought I was being flippant... not my intention.

So which ROMS have a modified Bluetooth driver? I'm looking at MUIU & CM7.1, however, not sure if these are any better than what I already have? Also can I simply flash over the top from within CWM, without loosing all my settings etc?

Many thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
You can find information about CM7 in the Q&A thread in this very forum, and MIUI on its own site.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
So the issue is the "stock" (Samsung based) bluetooth stack. It doesn't work with bluetooth controllers, including Wiimotes and (until somewhat recently) ps3 controllers.

However, the Sixaxis Controller had an update I think in November that employs a workaround that uses some kind of tunneling protocol to connect to ps3 controllers. (I have this app, which is paid, but does work on Samsung based ROMs) Wiimotes still do not work on any ROM that is using the Samsung bluetooth stack.

AOSP based ROMS, such as MIUI, CM7, or any ROM based on those, should be able to use both Wiimotes and ps3 controllers normally.

Fellow Fire Users .

I think we can preserve the Root and Reroot in a single click after the 6.2.1 update. It worked for me and Market,Rootexplorer is working for me after the update.Hopefully it should work for you also.

What Needs to be done ?

Before updating to 6.2.1 i assume that you have already rooted the previous version and you are on any of the previous version of the stock rom.

1. Download Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper

2. Click on Backup Root

3. Now you may update to the 6.2.1 version

4. After updating open Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper again and click on Restore root.

5. You have preserved the root.

Note: I cannot be held responsible if this does not work for you. Try at your own risk!

While I don't think its anywhere on HP website or gorilla glass support website...

Id get a screen protector anyways gorilla glass is somewhat a gimmick as all glass is easy to scrach and break... Gorilla glass is just a marketing tool imo and have scrached a few in my life

I only had my touchpad for a few days now and I bought a screen protector from Walmart (designed for the touchpad)

Forgot the name ill post it in a few mins...
[TouchPad General] BajingoLingo:
The general consensus around the net is that it does, many reputable reviewers remark on it having gorilla glass, however these mostly consist of reviews done with pre-launch units that may be different in some regards to the mass-production touchpads.

I dont think HP nor Corning have officially stated that it has, my guess is that some touchpads may have it and others have similar glass.

At any rate, I tried out a screen protector for mine and ended up taking it off 10 minutes later due to a distinct difference in responsiveness and feel. I may have just got unlucky with a cheap one, and your generally better off with a screen protector anyhow ;)
