You have to have fastboot unselected before it will work. I'm looking into rooting my wife's mt4g, and that took me forever to figure out.
I have a vibrant, so I'm new around these parts. Still doing my research before taking the plunge.
lol! wow thanks i wouldve never figured that out hah! yea well this is very helpful here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858996 hoping that you know how to use ADB of course =) now i am ready to root !
OH! btw how do you get off recovery mode ? do u just pull the batt out?

Please use the term quick boot when referring to the reboot option that does not fully restart the phone.
Use 'fastboot' to refer to the low level utility / protocol that allows image (ROM,etc) flashing via USB

No problem (clicky the thanks button ). I was actually leaning toward this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834225. I'm still trying to determine the difference between it and the one you linked. The main purpose will not be really to flash any roms (she likes the stock), but to resolve some minor issues she has w/ her device. For example, her market fc's every time it updates - it's getting old to have to uninstall updates before she can even access the market. So I'm wanting to root so I can use TB to freeze the market updater.

Aha...see this is the stuff I need to learn - I simply used that term b/c it's what was in the reboot option. So it sounds like "fastboot" is the same as Downloading mode on my vibrant, correct? In other words, roms can be flashed via either clockwork or a usb connection to a computer while the device is in fastboot...?
I need to find a tutorial that explains the basics for the mt4g. It's a pretty different animal than my vibrant. I'm creating my own flashable mods for my vibrant, yet I pick up my wife's mt4g and I'm back to square one. Fruustratting!
If you already flashed it, Power Off > Hold Vol Down + Power until booted > Vol Down to recovery and select

thats what i want i don't want to deal with flashing roms and all that crap lol i just want ROOT and keep it stock i just better not forget to UNroot before accepting an OTA update lol
hey i'am successfully rooted now with stock ROM! with the link i gave you! i think you should use the one i gave you its more detailed that the one you linked to me...theres a few things missing there in your link.
Followed these instuctions:
http://nexusshacks.com/nexus-s-hacks/how-to-root-nexus-s/
My phone is now stuck at the google logo and will not go past. After rooting and clockwork i was not able to load anything else but i would not boot.
Please help.. Thank You
seriously? there is like 4 threads on how to root it, and you go with one that you shouldnt.. lol
it had pictures.. lol
all the threads on here talk about specific phone models and i wasnt sure so i just went with it... Bad choice on my part..
hopefully someone can help
load up fastboot and try to get to recovery if you can then awesome.. try wiping everything and see if that fixes anything
Pull the battery, hold volume up and power and follow this post to get into recovery. Then like shabby penguin said, when you get into recovery wipe everything and you should be good to go. Again, the post I linked you to is the proper way to root the 4g...

Oh, guess I didnt catch that.
ok your best bet it to go into fastboot and flash the clockworkmod 3.0.2.4
did you do the oem unlock command?
yeah i did the oem unlock.
ok well assuming you followed the directions from this guy, then you have a diff bootimg on there i can toss a few files that may fix it, but no garuntees...
seriously tho
(You should see that “LOCK STATE” says “UNLOCKED”, meaning your Nexus S is rooted.)

is posted on his site.. that would be a good indicator to me to stop listening to anything he said.. he then later in the comments was trying to help someone and told them if usb wasnt working then use a microsd adapter to put the files on..
yeah i am kicking my self in the a$$. Is there anyway do just get it back to stock?
well have you tried flashing a kernel? if it gets to bootani then its usually rom erros, freezing at spalsh screens is generally kernel images
is it possible to load a kernel when i cant see the phones memory from the computer???
someone has to have some idea of to fix this...
just got me to stock unrooted phone.. please
yes, download this
boot into fastboot and type in fastboot flash boot /path/to/natarchy.img
replace /path/to with where its located.. this should get you rollin again
thank you... thank you... thank you!!!!!!!!
i have learned my lesson and i wont stray from the xda forum next time.
Again thank you
I have a similiar issue as OP...I tried to flash netarchy kernel with kernal manager and then phone rebooted and got stuck at google logo.
I have installed SDK...google drivers, but when I try to flash the kernel I get waiting for device in command prompt. Same error when I type "fastboot oem unlock"
Any ideas?

Waiting for device means Windows does not recognize phone. Reinstall drivers.
ok sounds like a driver issue, i used pdanet to install the drivers i needed. try fastboot devices, if it doesnt show anything then your phone isnt connected
Ok used my mac and was able to get cwm recovery on device. I could mount it. Now how can I flash back to stock. I9020A att 3G version. Booting now I see google and a lock.
Thanks everyone!
Okay, so here's my situation...
I installed TWRP with no issues, and a few days later installed CWM recovery (just because it's what I'm used to from previous device usage), but just today an OTA occurred. Yes, I'm an idiot and was warned not to do this and for that I am getting hit my some severe karma. Anyways, all I want to do is get my device working again. I could care less if it's stock, and I lose all of my data. I just want it to return to normal functionality. I'm on CWM version 6.0.4.4 and have no ADB support so I'm unable to push any files for a restore. Also, I have backups in my TWRP folder, but cannot access them from the restore from /sdcard menu. If anyone out there could help me out I'd be so damn grateful. Thanks!!!

FIXED!
If anyone out there needs help with this issue, I've found a very simple quick fix.
1. http://koush.com/post/universal-adb-driver Download and install this. For some reason it enables you to use ADB while in CWM.
2. Plug in your device while powered on and in recovery mode.
3. Now, enter the following commands in order.
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota of=/sdcard/fota-backup.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
4. TA DA! You should be able to reboot your device in full functionality!
Note: The command prompt was copy and pasted by me from this forum --- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696

I am in the same situation. Please describe it in detail as to where to enter the command. Specifically where do I get "adb shell" and how to get this command prompt. Thank you so much
I was having the same problem tried everything to get it to reboot even the universal drivers still didn't work. I ended up using ubuntu and installing the jdk and sdk then ran the command that was in the TWRP tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696) and it worked like a charm. 9 hours though :/ hope this helps a little bit. if you dont have a computer running ubuntu just make a live cd and you can do it from that!

5) During reboot you will get a Red Triangle with a "!" inside, this is normal (First boot after flashing SuperSu will show the Red triangle twice.Wait for system to boot (this will take awhile). It may appear like the system has frozen but it has not. JUST WAIT!
*****VERIZON USERS******
It has come to my attention that some users have encountered abnormally long first boot time(over 20 minutes before first time setup)
To resolve this issue:
Boot into bootloader by pulling the battery and reinserting it and holding VOL- and phugging in the phone. then typing:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot2.img
fastboot reboot

yea i know how to input bootloader commands now sorry about that i was being a little slow. I just wanna know if i could flash boot2 cuz on the op it only says to do that after it goes into twrp and i flash supersu then if it gets stuck in boot. Mine got stuck when it was rebooting before i could put the adb reboot recovery thing. So i just want to know if i can do the boot2 command before flashing supersu or if i can just reboot to recovery and flash a rom? Sorry for being rude I was just irritated in failing to root.
At this point you can just install roms. The boot2.img is mainly for first boot situations after the bootloader flashing.

Sorry should have added this is during the boot up stage..here is a copy & paste I keep handy:
While the device is powered off, press and hold Vol - and Power button. When you see the LG logo quickly release only the power button and re-press and hold the power button (Never let go of the Vol - button) This will boot you into the LG Factory reset screen. ONLY USE THIS METHOD IF YOU HAVE TWRP INSTALLED!!!!! OTHERWISE YOU WILL FACTORY RESET YOUR DEVICE!!!!! Choose yes to both options and you will be rebooted into TWRP. TWRP intercepts this command and ignores the factory reset part.

When you state follow this guide ( i have to say the LG dev community is kinda of rude and does not even explain anything to new comers from other devices...) Do you mean i need to follow every step or some steps this is why i say the LG Dev community is all over the place nothing is set in stone there is not one way to do like most Samsung users are used to. I would hope that you could elaborate a little more if you are offering to help.
I am not trying to be a jerk i'm just use to nicer dev community. I have done dev work... I have not had any other device besides Samsung for the longest time and i and will be switching back once the S8 or note 8 comes out.
To get me but i would like to root this device and i would like more then a point here to do it because you don't have some time to explain what needs to be done....
Again i am not trying to be rude just trying to learn the process on the LG dev side... Do not want to brick my device if i can prevent it.

Yes every step i am new as well and i got to say this was the most complex toot i have ever done. But every single comand bust be typed.. Ignore the $ sign. Install sdk not the smaller version of adb.
