[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
thanks, i'll keep that in mind

hmm.. i think i'll hold off in recommending 3.0.0.5, i installed it to test it out, and it won't even boot to it, when you select recovery, it just gets stuck at the the google logo

3.0.0.0 worked perfectly, as soon as you select recovery, it boots to it right away, no looooooooong wait
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
updated to use recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-crespo.img

just make sure it gets renamed to renamed it to recovery.img as mentioned on page 1 in the guide else it hangs
[Nexus S General] alexis_p3300:
excellent guide allgamer!worked fine on my 2.3.2 s
[Nexus S General] terryhau:
Just got a new Nexus S.

I can't seem to get into bootloader/fastboot mode.

Tried volume down + power, volume up + power, volume down + up + power.

It just boots up normally.

Any chance they changed the button combination?

Edit:

NVM, managed to get it.

The only way it works for me is,

press power and hold and quickly press volup and hold.

i rooted the phone about 10 days ago using this guide. but yesterday after i updated an app it seems that my phone is not rooted anymore. can you tell why this happened or if there is a way to fix it without losing my data on the phone. and how can i avoid this from happening again? (android version 2.3.2)
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
just use CW recovery, and select the option to Fix all the Permissions
[Nexus S General] ripperrs:
unfortunately i didnt use the cw recovery and i kept the stock. so i have to do it again all. i have bought some apps, if i delete them and i want to download them do i have to pay again?? finally from which step of the guide should i start?
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
no, you only pay once, it will remain in your gmail account on android market
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Is your bootloader still unlocked? Unlocking the bootloader is the only thing that wipes your data.

All you need to do is start from the step where you flash clockwork.

It's recently been found that you don't have to unlock the bootloader to root the device, see this thread, so even if you're locked, all you really have to do is use fastboot to flash clockwork recovery, or even just boot to it without flashing it, then you apply the superuser update zip from within clockwork and you're re-rooted.
[Nexus S General] ripperrs:
thanks both of you. fortunately i have it unlocked so i will only flash the cw recovery and the su. thanks again :D
[Nexus S General] ripperrs:
i flashed the cw recovery but after i reboot and i select recovery i get the image attached. and after that a menu appears in blue letters saying reboot, wipe data, wipe cache and one more option. do you know why is this happening? do i have to do all the steps in order to fix it?
[Nexus S General] erikwervo:
hey allgamer, excellent job u did here.. this newbie having a problem with following the instruction.

here:

*open Device Manager (or run devmgmt.msc) make sure you don't see this problem (windows failed to identify the SNS and install the correct drivers)

* [BLANK IMAGE]

*Do a right click and select Update Driver Software

im losing the image. so.. sorry with the silly question but what should i right click? thanks mate.

I figured it out already. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
That's the stock recovery. Every time you reboot the phone, there's a script in the /etc directory that overwrites your recovery image with the stock one.

You shouldn't have to do all the steps again. Just use ROM Manager from the Market to reinstall clockwork recovery each time you want to boot to it.

You can disable the script if you want to keep clockwork as your recovery (it's /etc/install-recovery.sh, change the extension to .old or something).
[Nexus S General] harman2:
ok i am stock

i am stock with recovery cant load i remove the recovery img and download another and stiil no load i located in sdk tools and nothing work what happen help
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
did you rename the crespo 3.0.0.5 img to recovery.img?

if not it will revert back to the factory recovery image

if you did it right, it should show the CW recovery image instead
[Nexus S General] glasslung:
I can't seem to load into the recovery mode. I chose the recovery option after flashing the clockwork recovery and putting the su zip file on the storage. All I see is a google logo with an icon of an unlocked lock. None of the buttons (including power) are responsive. I have to take the battery out to get out of this screen. What's the problem?
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
How are you trying to get into recovery? From what screen?

Can you get into fastboot mode? If so, try just doing "fastboot boot recovery.img" (instead of flashing it), you should reboot into a working recovery that way. (recovery.img would be a file on your computer, and you should be able to just use the long name, but some are saying to rename the crespo.blah.blah.blah file to recovery.img).
[Nexus S General] ripperrs:
i did but didnt work with the first time. i flashed again the cw rec and it worked. thanks again for the help and the fast response!!
[Nexus S General] glasslung:
I gave it another try and it worked. I was getting into fastboot successfully. I flashed the recovery.img. Rebooted the bootloader and chose the recovery option from the bootloader. Don't know why it didnt work before.
[Nexus S General] glasslung:
Now I'm having a problem with su. I installed su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip according to the directions on the first post, but Root Checker says I have no root, and Titanium Backup fails to install busybox.
[Nexus S General] ripperrs:
have you done this step "So all you guys who are having trouble getting root inside the rom, When your in recovery before you flash the superuser.zip file select -- mounts and storage -- then --mount /system --" or perhaps the su file you downloaded is corrupted. try downloading it again
[Nexus S General] erikwervo:
need help.. please anyone :(

guys i need to unlock my NS bootloader, i made it thru the PART 1 of this tutorial perfectly and got the "android bootloader interface" under the "android phone" (just like picture.)

but when it goes to the PART 2..

Part 2

* open a command prompt go to run & type CMD hit enter

* switch to the directory where you downloaded & unzipped the ..\android-sdk-windows\tools

* type fastboot oem unlock and hit enter

nothing happen.

when i tried to type prompt command "fastboot devices" it says " 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command. operable program or batch file.

did i missed something somewhere? any help will be much appreciated. thanks in advance.

edit:

my bad. got it fixed!! hurayy
[Nexus S General] Jonathon Grigg:
Hey AllGamer, I followed your tutorial today and I can say that it works on 2.3.2 (GRH78C) fine!

I also found it lacking in detail in some areas, so I made my own tutorial based off this one, with every little step and how I solved it. I'd just like to thank you for the original guide, and if you would like to incorporate it into this guide? Don't worry, I have also credited you :D

Thanks again!
[Nexus S General] Igotsanevo4g:
I cant get the drivers to install while in the bootloader, i point it at the google-usb-driver and it says it cannot install.

Im on XP, and it also doesnt give me a android bootloader option.

Thoughts?
[Nexus S General] Jonathon Grigg:
Check my tutorial and find the link to the USB driver page on the Android website but if it isn't recognising it in the bootloader mode try installing PDAnet because it installs working drivers. Also detailed in my tutorial I think.

Hopefully this solves your problem (:
[Nexus S General] dcaglia:
I cannot find a dl source for cw recovery anywhere! Link is broken! :mad:
[Nexus S General] Jonathon Grigg:
I have uploaded the version of CW Recovery I used for my tutorial onto my Dropbox account. You can find it here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9751350/recovery.img

It is 3.0.0.5 crespo froyo/eclair version, however I have renamed it to recovery.img for the sake of my tutorial.

I can also confirm that the link for CW is down.
[Nexus S General] dcaglia:
**I just downloaded rommanager and went that route. (pulled from clockwork>downloads on sdcard.:-)** It wont continue past per not rooted :-)

Kudos to ur dropbox; Iwas about to do the same. :cool:
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Yeah, it wouldn't.

The only way to get into CWM w/o root already is to flash it from either fastboot or the terminal might work. Easiest way is put the downloaded file on your computer and do the fastboot boot or fastboot flash method.
[Nexus S General] j0hnZ:
Well flashed su with the clockwork found in here. Problem is that clockwork(at least the one I downloaded from that guy above who made his own thread) doesn't work very well. It took 2 tries to get into cw to flash the su app. I did a backup from rom manager and it went in and started backing up right away. I then tried to flash a rom through rom manager and it went in and got the google unlock screen and then a screen looked like opening up a package and then an android exclamation mark screen. So then I pulled the battery and tried to go into recovery through the boot loader menu, and same thing over and over.

So after reading some more, I need to run a command to flash recovery onto the phone each time I want to flash something?
[Nexus S General] Jonathon Grigg:
Yes, this is because of some built in protection against loosing the stock recovery. If you want to disable this, there is some file you can delete, but I can't remember it right now. But basically, each time you want to get into CW you need to reflash it, either through the ROM Manager app or via the command line.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
That's correct.

The file /etc/install-recovery.sh is a script that runs every time you do a normal boot. It checks the crc of the recovery image on your phone, and if it doesn't match what Google expects it to be, it flashes over whatever recovery you're using with a backup copy of the stock recovery (which is, by the way, what you're seeing with exclamation mark screen). This is a safety feature of the OS.

If you want clockwork to be your permanent recovery, then you can just rename that /etc/install-recovery.sh file to /etc/install-recovery.sh.bak and it will stop running. So, to go cw permanently, rename that file, then flash clockwork either through ROM Mgr or fastboot or there's a way from the terminal on the phone as well but I don't recall the command syntax.

My experience with keeping the stock recovery and trying to boot into clockwork with ROM Mgr is that you have to select the flash clockwork recovery option in ROM Mgr a couple of times before selecting the boot into recovery screen.

Because there is an imminet threat of the llamas taking over xda I thought why not to organise our defense in time. Anybody got some hunting tipps to share?

Llama recipes are also welcome because it would by a pity to hunt them but not knowing how to enjoy the sweet meat. Do you prefer them roasted, fried, grilled on the open fire while sitting in a circle around the fire singing kumbayah?

Let us bring up as many ideas as possible, the freedom of xda depends on your participation :-)

Who wants to join the anti llama interest group? It's loosely organised and has only one goal: Keep the llamas from power. It is called "the llama hunters" and this thread is it's headquarters. Everybody is welcome to join especially those who find themselves on the team llamas hatelist. The only condition is to use an avatar that shows your feelings against llamas! We llama hunters love freedom and are willing to defend it against the evil llamas who threaten to take over all that is dear to us :-)

Places where the llama hunters meet

- the Hungry Llama (favourite restaraunt great selection of llama dishes)

- Llama's Hump (official caffee)

List of members/ sympathizers

- altae (founder)

- sakai4eva (cook)

- lyboyovyick (post yet to be determined)

- nrfitchett4 (director of llama interrogation)

- westicle (chief llama testicle remover)

- Diamond_dawg (hunter)

- M3PH (director and proprietor of penguin hell)

List of secret members/ sympathizers

- ???????????? (spy in our service)

Members/ sympathizers that do not fit in those categories

- P.T.C. (ambassador, tries to negotiate a peace treaty, could be a spy though)

Official hatelist

- each and every member/ sympathizer of team llama

Special hatelist for husam666

- husam666

Traitors list

- Babydoll25 (get him dead or alive)

P.S. Since I kind of started this whole anti llama thing I want to make something very clear. I admire all people here at xda and on this earth. Nothing is further from my general attitude than hating people (or animals). It's for fun and it is a key interest for me that it stays like this. Please keep this in mind if you choose to participate in our little "war".
