[Solved]can't get terminal apps rooted after ota upgrade to ics - Nexus S General

[ update ]
It's not bcuz "can't access terminal as root"
It's bcuz every time when Updated the device via OTA, the third part recovery was replaced by the Official recovery, and the device was unrooted again. So EVERY TIME finished OTA Update, the first thing to do is to root it again.

my friend told me that i have to re-root my ics-ed device. i am giving a try

try android terminal emulator from the market, works well here https://market.android.com/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
and/or update your superuser app.

do not listen to your friend, do not "reroot" your android. that will just be a waste of time.

put it in your sd storage, boot into recovery, find the file and flash it, boot up. you do have a custom recovery installed, like clockworkmod or twrp recovery?

Tried installing/updating busybox?

i forget... looks there is no custom recovery since i ota upgrade to ics. get to install one.

Thanks very much. all done.
and one more [Q]
I used flashboot to flash the Super*.zip into recovery, just like I mentioned my reply.
Can I delete it? or just when I flash twpr recovery img, than the recovery partition all be override?

id keep it in your storage just in case you need it again. most the recent roms have the superuser updated already, so you probably wont need it again if youre flashing roms. but you never know.

thanks.

You are not flashing the correct kernel, I have seen that error, many times. Just boot to recovery, and flash a different kernel.

yes, but what ever rom you are flashing, most likely will included their kernel, flash the att compatible kernels, it will work.
Use Tibu to freeze "knox".
Twrp does not auto loki. you have to either flash a loki kernel or flash loki doki after flashing the rom and then reboot.
Loki doki can be found here: http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=483
He did not try to install a rom.....he got that after installing twrp

I keep having the same error. I used the latest "Lokifyed 3way Tool" as well as AdamOutler's "Casual Root and Recovery". Everything works fine until I try to install a ROM (tried various ROMs, Infamous/Revolt). After a successful ROM install, I reboot and get this error. I have the latest Samsung USB drivers installed, flashed back to stock, did a factory reset, cleared cache/dalvik, rerooted, frozen anything with "knox" in it, reinstalled both recoveries (on separate tries of course), and tried installing the loki-doki patch and lokied kernals before and after the ROM successfully installs, to which they both fail and abort install. I feel I have tried everything but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Use the recovery I am linking to flash whatever it is. It will auto-loki for you. Loki is required to bypass the bootloader authentication.

This recovery is included in the 3way tool I used and it is the recovery I choose to use when going through the root/recovery process.
I have the same error "System software not authorized by at&t has been found on your phone" but when I press vol up and power it says rebooting to recovery but just boots back to that error. Anyway to fix this? TIA

You need to go into download mode and get a stock rom that is rooted through odin. I can't really explain through text how to use odin, so just use google and YouTube to your advantage.

Help trying to get back into custom recovery

I did research for this for a couple of hours but didn't find anything too helpful besides flashing back to stock. I also saw I could install the TWRP img file by the command line but that makes me a little nervous for the brick warnings posted.
I have the Goldeneye rom on my phone and I had TWRP 2.5.0.2 and everything was working great. I also updated the Modem to the MF3 one. I flashed TWRP up to 2.6 and loki-doki and everything seemed to go OK until I rebooted the phone.
I rebooted the phone and got the error of System software not authorized by ATT has been found on your phone and the SECURE FAIL: KERNEL message at the top.
I am now unable to boot into recovery with the buttons or using the reboot menu from the Goldeneye rom. Every time I try to reboot it goes to the error message above.
Now I am able to have the phone boot up fully if I go into download mode and then press the volume down key to cancel/restart the phone and then it will boot up with out issue. Any time I reboot though with out going into download mode I get the secure kernel error.
Is there a way to recover the device without going through ODIN and reflashing it back to stock? Also, my baseband shows MF3 now since I flashed the modem, is that going to cause any issues?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
Can you try reinstalling the twrp recovery through goomanager when you get it to boot.. Then retrying to get into recovery?

Why not Odin
I haven't looked for awhile, but if you example of command to put recovery on phone by adb, try it. If you have the command line from a dev thread then just copy/paste the line. No chance of typing error. Still double check all. And any bu's you can do prior, do them and put copy on pc. Know you can't nandroid, but maybe MyBackUp Pro.
I was hoping there was something I could do to retain the setup on the phone how it is.
I'll push the twrp file using the command line and if that doesn't work I will flash with odin

Just download free gee from play store select twrp 2.6.3.3 and reboot into recovery and that should work this firmware is extra buggy with Recovery's if you backup stock ROM on reboot it might say encrypted and give it a reboot And it should work

Bricked phone, stuck at TWRP, No Download mode

I bricked my phone after doing an OTA Update with root and TWRP installed.. I've never had this hard time to unbrick a phone.. I am stuck at recovery, can't go to Download mode, G2 Drivers didn't work for the PC so I installed Universal drivers and it got recognised. I follow this step-by-step thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 and everything is good until I get to flash the stock kdz. It says that my phone is not connected to the PC and can't continue flashing. I really need help on that because I can't get out of this by now and I really need to get it back on track.. :crying:
