Okay, I've tried to run this but it always fails at flashing the recovery.. Any help?
[Nexus S Android Development] m.sabra:
Ok first have you unlocked your bootloader when the tool asked you to use volume buttons to chose yes and unlock ? (If you did this you should see an unlocked lock under google logo when booting the phone) if you didn't just run the script again and unlock the bootloader.

Are the drivers installed properly ? When you connect the phone to the pc check device manager to see if the PC recognizes the phone (the drivers are included in the tool in case you need them .

And last check the root tool folder on your pc it should have a file called cwm.img if it doesn't then download the tool again.

SuperUser is not visible after the process

I am on stock ICS, I had previously unlocked the bootloader, then I did the whole process mentioned in this thread. It showed me the CWM menu but when I did the reboot, I couldn't find the superuser app. Then to test whether it is rooted or not, I installed titanium backup but it says the device isnt rooted. What to do now? I tried SuperOneClick but it doesn't seem to work.

Edit: Thanks guys, sorry. It was my mistake, I didnt do the whole process in a right way. It is working as expected. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Julius.Nkemdiche:

[Nexus S Android Development] JBEZ:
Hello,

Does this work on a stock Nexus S (i9023) on Jelly Bean?

I'm all stock (bootloader has always been locked, never rooted).

Yesterday, everyone said you needed a custom recovery to install Android 4.1.1.

Today, I installed Jelly Bean on my stock Nexus S OTA with no issue, so I didn't need this tool.

However, I'm keen on having root access as well as CWM on my phone.

Is this tool up to date? The last edit of OP is 11th Jully...

Thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] WarCow:
Yep, i used it on a stock i9023 with the OTA JB with locked bootloader yesterday and it worked fine :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Kaneda9:
Look at the changelog ;)

So yes, it is up to date.

Works great, all you have to do is set up the drivers for adb and fastboot
[Nexus S Android Development] JBEZ:
Yes, I was just worried about the date of the last update and thought it was just short of the JB official release. Thanks again.

I've launched the tool and it worked perfectly.

[Now I just wish the playstore website updated with the real list of installed apps. Because the bootloader unlocking wiped everything, I have almost nothing installed. The Play Store app is up to date, but the website still shows a lot of installed apps.

I hope the phone does not automatically install those apps, because it's nice to be able to have a fresh start.]

edit: nevermind, the Play store website has now sync'ed with the phone, only the Gapps (+Superuser and CWM) appear.
[Nexus S Android Development] 1ProudEgyptian:
Hi.

I had the NS running stock ICS but unlocked boot loader and rooted.

The kids were playing some games on the phone and when they were done my older kid volunteered to click and accept the new OTA JellyBean update before I could save my root and cwm recovery.

I had used this tool before to unlock the boot loader and flash cwm and root when I was using GingerBread. After the JB update I checked and the bootloader is still unlocked. Is it safe to use this tool to re-flash cwm and root only without trying to unlock the boot loader again as I do not want to erase the phone?

Would really appreciate ur feedback

Thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] karx23:
Of course it's safe. It will just skip the bootloader unlock and continue with cwm and root.
[Nexus S Android Development] 1ProudEgyptian:
Thanks karx23
[Nexus S Android Development] jojoost:

I'm not against toolkits because I have used a few myself but its just as easy if not easier to go into fast boot flash recovery etc and root with a nexus device.
[Nexus S Android Development] MRsf27:

[Nexus S Android Development] motoman992:
Yes it roots stock 4.1.1 . I did it on mine and it worked great !
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
actidentally flashed an unrooted rom and it blew out my recovery and now i have no root to even use rom manager to push CWM back on.

trying to use this as im very frustrated from a ****ty weekend and it restarts my phone and just says waiting for device, goes to boot loader and just hangs there never doing anything. debuggin is on.

any tips. i would just adb push cwm back on but its been so long fro the life of me i cant remembebr how to do it.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
OT since I don't know anything about this tool...

Reboot your phone to bootloader, then

fastboot flash recovery <recovery zip>

Then you can select Recovery from the bootloader menu to get into CWM (or whatever you're going to use), mount USB storage, copy Superuser/SuperSU over, flash it, and you should be good.

Depending on what you flashed, you may also need to remove a script that flashes recovery on reboot, but not sure since I don't know what you flashed.
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
I got it thanks. I just installed an ota JB ROM not realizing it wasn't rooted and it some how blew out my cwm recovery as well.

I decided to try adb push and reinstalled the generic adb Sammy win 7 drivers. Something aid try one click again and it worked with the adb drivers and got my recovery loaded. Luckily the ROM didn't lock my boot loader. Been having a rough weekend and this was the icing on the cake. I almost went postal at work and raped my electric pencil sharpener I was so fumed.

I was trying to troubleshoot a Google music issue and installed a stock rooted ROM from cm10 and got it fixed realizing it was my own stupidity and not the rom
[Nexus S Android Development] continuum51:
So do I go into bootloader mode to use this tool?
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
no you just plyg the phone in usb. do NOT activate usb storage to the computer.

it should reboot eventually and do everything for you. looking inside the folders it has all the tools (fastboot, adb, ETC) but just automates and enters all the commands for you.

its very nice.

make sure your drivers are good. also i was having trouble because (finally figd it out) i was doing mine on a docked laptop and had the usb plugged into the dock not the machine. this was causing me lock ups and bad connections.

i ended up also using the windows 7 stock ADB drivers in the list.

if you have any questions i can help with ill be on here all day (i do very little at work most times lol)
[Nexus S Android Development] vile10:

your device is fine,just run the tool again and this time chose unlocked.
[Nexus S Android Development] jamega2f:
after running the root and everything i keep getting stuck at the screen that says "Google" and at the bottom it says "fastboot status - okay" next to the lock, i'm pretty sure it's trying to flash super user but it get's stuck at this screen. and when i do a battery pull, and try to reboot into recovery, the same thing happens, the super user zip is on my SD card but not flashed to my phone, and if i try to turn off my phone and get into recovery via the boot screen, it shows a dead android with a "!" coming out of it, what can i do?
[Nexus S Android Development] m.sabra:
make sure you are choosing the right device,when the tool let you select.

Bugs

@wesg79, I noticed you are running on the Bell network. So may I ask, are you running the I-9100M? I'm just curious, because I am and updated my device using the Swedish version of ICS (build:LPQ) and there do seem to be a few bugs. Just wondering if you have experienced them for yourself? I seem to be dropping down to 3G every once in a while and have never had less than HSPA+ with the stock rom. My "Beautiful Widgets" clock widget also seems to not correctly display the time every once in a while, but perhaps they haven't updated for use on ICS yet.

I was having issues with the "processing failed" for the software update, but thanks to this thread it has been resolved.

I'm also curious if someone else can answer the following for me -- once the official Bell version is released for the I-9100M, is it possible to "update" to it using Odin, or would that not only wipe everything on my device. I believe I would also need to re-root my phone, right?

Sorry for all the questions! Thanks in advance.

Not the point..

I have GDXv22.. And it looks like that launcher has got somethin on this ROM.. lol..

It just won't install in CWM..

well.. okay..

okay.. the launcher is there.. but it's not working Probably??

I'm dying For this launcher..

Had enough of all Go launcher.. ADW .. What-so-fu*king-ever...

I have to mention this: i lowered the Density to 120..

i think that has effected the apps menu ..

the apps menu has a smaller window.. lmao .. ( on the active launcher ) not the same app..
