Did you mean `C-s M-c add C-s' in the last key sequence
(that finds all case-insensitive)? You have to use M-c to toggle
case-sensitivity for case-fold-search that you set to nil.
And `C-s C-s' naturally restores case-sensitivity of the
previous search string, but it's possible to configure this
using `isearch-keep-mode-variables' from bug#11378.
