NEXUS S ROOT
Heres an updated guide on how to root your Nexus S and Nexus S 4G on ICS or Gingerbread. This new method also installs TWRP recovery instead of ClockworkMod Recovery.
Warning: Unlocking your Nexus S/Nexus S 4G will wipe your personal settings/data/internal storage! Step 1. Power off your Nexus S or Nexus S 4G.

Step 3. Once in fastboot mode, connect your Nexus S/Nexus S 4G to your computer via micro-USB cable.

Step 4. For Linux and Mac, skip this step. For Windows, make sure youve installed correct drivers. You can watch the video tutorial on how to do this. Once your drivers are installed, you should see Android ADB Interface in Device Manager.

just my few cents: I came into fastboot mode by pressing Vol UP + POWER instead of Vol down + POWER. After extracting nexussrootICS.zip with File Roller 3.2 I have to apply the command chmod 766 fastboot-linux to make it executable.f After that I couldnt copy SuperUser.zip to mounted fileSystem as suggested. Instead I have to type sudo cp -f /path/to/nexussrootICS/SuperUser.zip /media/35EE-1EOE/ where 35EE-1EOE is my NexusS Device also ALL Data was deleted, including ANYTHING on SdCard as Im wondering, because on my Nexus One the Personal Data (like MP3s, Images, PDFs, etc) was being kept on sdcard, even if I dont removed it!

Hi everyone, I rooted my nexus s (ICS 4.0.3) and everything went very well But if i try to get into recovery mode without this command in the terminal (on mac) i see the green android for 1sec and then its only black and i have to take my battery off in order to make my phone work again How can i install a new rom on my phone if i cant get in the recoverymode to wipe all data and install the rom from my sd card? Can someone help me?? ps: sorry for my poor english

the issue is that the backlight is turned off with non superamoled screens after the 4.0.3 update (this is the official ota update). From what ive read, the solution is a real pain, but easy.. recovery is still there and working but because of the non-functional backlight, you cant see it. you need to go into very bright direct sunlight or use a very (and i cant stress this enough) very bright flash light. youll be able to see everything and carry on as normal. very inconvenient but everything works as it should. hope this helps.

1. The stock OS is 2.3.1. If I do this process, will it upgrade to ICS? Do you suggest upgrading to ICS? (I dont know if the hardware supports the new OS) 2. Once it is upgraded to ICS, can I still tether using USB or use it for a Wi-fi hotspot? That is my main purpose. Regards, Ravi. PS: Another lame question: If required can I re-install stock OS 2.3.1 back?

You can use ES File Explorer, open the app and put it in Root Mode (in settings), then delete Superuser.apk in /system/app directory. You might want to reboot and the Superuser app should be gone but you wont be able to run rooted apps after deleting it.

Thats what happens on stock ROM as it has security feature to overwrite it. You need to install a custom ROM so recovery stays. You can also use ROM Manager to flash CWM recovery and boot into recovery (right after) to flash a new ROM.

At that point, I get Found New Hardware / Windows needs to install driver software for your Android 1.0 Windows (Vista 64) could not find this a driver, including in the android-sdk directory. At this point, the device is no longer listed with adb devices or with fastboot devices, and the next step, fastboot oem unlock just hangs with the message

for those of you having trouble downloading the nexussrootICS.zip you want to actually click the link posted on this page. you will then be taken to the download page where you can download the 17.1 MB file. if you right click or ctrl click the link posted on this page, you will be downloading a shortcut or something.

These are probably questions that are obvious for most, but since Im not the sharpest tool in the shed, Im going to ask. 1. Other than the Samsung USB drivers that I already have on my computer, is the file NexusSRootICS.zip the only other file that I need? 2. Being as I have the NS4G from Sprint, I did not see the file for the 4G referenced in the instructions listed in the directory when I extracted the above zip file. Is is safe to safe to say the command is still valid? 3. Is NexusSRootICS.zip a full version of ICS and more importantly, does everything work? I.E., GPS, WIFI, WIMAX, Camera, Video, Hotspot, etc? 4. Any known issues with apps such as Google Maps, TeleNav, etc? Thanks. I do appreciate any and all replies and hope they are kind. Ive never rooted a phone before and my NS4G is currently running the stock version from Google, v2.3.7.

Have Successfully installed SU after completing all steps however when any programs attempt root access, it is not prompted for access and is essentially denied. [i have notifications set as prompt]. For example when trying to use market enabler it will give me back a device not rooted error or when attempting to update su itself, when the gaining root access line comes up it comes back as failed. Have you encountered this problem before? do you know of a possible solution.

I had this same problem. You need to navigate to the fastboot-linux file (in file manager not terminal) and right click on the file. Then click on the second tab at the top (cant remember what it says but i think it might say permissions) and check the box that says allow running file as an executable (or something along those lines, its the bottom checkbox). Also remember to use sudo ./fastboot-linux otherwise you computer will hang at waiting for device.

Did you make sure that you made the file executable like I said a few posts earlier? Also make sure that you use the sudo prefix for your commands

I just finished the root thing . Step by step , had a little trouble installing the driver (winxp 32 ) but other than that worked like a charm or at least so it seems .Ive rebooted a couple of times , installed apps and got connected to the internet . The phone is Android 2.3.4 . From I ve read there is an issue when someone will use the recovery . If someone could spare please explain a few things about recovery , WTRP , and CRC . I d like to keep the phone stock as possible , Thanks
