I would think you need to Odin a custom kernel/recovery then flash a super user.zip file. Also you would need to get the super user app from the playstote

Ok could you give me some instructions on flashing kernel/ recovery with odin?
Never mind they have odin one clicks for kernels

As far as I can tell by examining the install script, this is not a permanent install.
Everytime you reboot, it will go back to the original CWM and you will have to run the install again to get this recovery.

You are right. It works perfectly. Does backups and installs but won't stick. How can we make it stick sfhub? By packing it into a stock kernel?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Yes, pack it into a stock kernel and flash/install the resulting kernel.
Curious, have you tried flashing the modem?

Stock Unrooted

I haven't done this in a while so I don't remember how to go about it. I want to go from White Out ROM v4 to the last ota ics unrooted. Would I just Odin back to it, and delete superuser? Or is it more then that? Thanks in advance.

Well, if you don't care about resetting binary counter, just grab the FL24 Original Tar from the Repo. If you do want everything 100%, then use Triangle Away while you're still rooted. Then flash the tar.
(Do the standard and backup, etc, etc)

Pc odin. Place in pda spot. Only thing you need checked is auto reboot. If you want to feel really secure about proper partioning, you can also get the pit and repartion though the low ship has the pit built in and should partion correctly.
And it happens. I have brain-farts multiple times a day. :beer:

Well I was able to using a app. Im cursed with having a broke volume down button, so that was my only choice since i couldnt get to download mode without rooting and using a widget to reboot to download mode.
I have to dig around for the app but I know I saved it just in case...
Actrully found it I used a app called framaroot.

Interesting. It's worth a shot OP. Worst case, it fails and you uninstall. If it is successful, you can install mobile odin, then get the latest gb27 tar, and money. While you're at it, you will have to flash a cwm custom jb kernel, since you're on ics, and, MO won't flash modems, you'll need a jb modem to use data on gb27. Download the zip though of the modem . Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Hopefully it works for you. I don't see why it wouldn't. Might be more complicated but it worked for me. but of course YMMV. Just follow what jdsingle76 said you you'll be good to go.
