How to check for OTA update with the I727r (Rogers version) - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi,
I have the Rogers version of the i727 and it has no option, in any menus, to check if ota update are available.
But
I found this trick on another website.
Dial *#*#checkin#*#* (checkin=2432546)
You will receive a notification telling you that the checkin succeeded.
Currently there is no update for i727r (rogers version)

That's probably not gonna work because running the CHECKIN will connect you to the Google Servers. Our updates will need to go through Rogers so they can add their bloatware and crap and sent out by Rogers to our IMEIs.
As the SkyRocket update has been sent out (and since they're exactly the same model minus the R), that means its ready but hasn't yet been blasphemized by Rogers yet.
That command used to work wonders with my good ol' Nexus One.
But..
Then again... I could be wrong.

I have the same problem, no update menu no where...i also dont want to root my phone before ICS

I would assume that the update would be done through kies. Kind of annoying I know.

Thats what i though too, until i saw kies only updates the kernel and has no way of updating and/or formating the OS

i have the same phone with the same problem.....any updates?

Rogers has never been very keen with updates. As far as Rogers is concerned updating the software on a phone causes too many problems.
I used to have a Nokia E71 for 3 years and Rogers never made a single update available even though dozens had been published by Nokia.

Unless I'm mistaken, I think you just got pushed the HSUPA update. This part of the file name, "1_84_502_11", matches my firmware number after the HSUPA update. I don't know what number was on the firmware before the update, but my firmware is 1.84.502.11 after said update. From what I remember, the file name is exactly the one I got when I checked for it after the update was officially released last month.
EDIT: Unless of course, I'm wrong, and that's a totally new firmware update. Though I haven't seen any info on any new firmware updates for us since HSUPA.

I got the push on this via wifi yesterday afternoon also. I was assuming that this was the update that would enable installation of non market apps but I was wrong. Anyone have any additional information on this OTA update?
Personally, I do not think this is a recent update as I have been running custom roms since I bought the device but had to revert back to stock because of a warranty issue that will require me sending the device back. I think it is an update that was missed in the timeframe from February launch up until about 3 days ago.

I just referenced those numbers to mine and it IS the HSUPA update. It wasn't released till late April, so it hasn't been out that long. I just don't know if you should install it. If your sending it back, and since you reverted back to stock, maybe you should try installing it.

I was at wendys today, used their wifi to check for the update and sure enough it was this same one. D/l'ed it and installed. My speeds went from 200kb/s to 500kb/s. That was just one test though
I just hope this doesnt effect rooting it in the future as i plan to do so.
Just got the Inspire for my wife today. Saw this update as well. She doesn't want me to root or flash anything yet. Wondering if it's ok to run this update without it affecting the ability to root and flash anything later.
TIA

if somebody has any info about what it fixed,would be appreciate.

Nope, this is a completely different update for one of the international versions of the Atrix 2, ME865. That link is for the USA update for AT&T MB865.
TheAdlaBerlin: Without inspecting the update itself, we can only speculate about what it may contain- though I would guess they're using a similar codebase for the MB865 and ME865.

hmm, i guess you're right. logically since the [email protected] just got their 2.3.6 update finally, i also suppose the ME update contains smaller bugfixes that are probably included in the big one for the [email protected] i did not notice any new apps and since the unbranded ME comes without any extra apps except the standard stuff, i guess must be some bugfixes. when i clicked on the release notes, it just transferred me to the Motorola homepage where i can choose my region on the world map.

For giggles, you could try "fastboot oem unlock" to see if the new release has an unlocked bootloader (very unlikely )
about the changes
The baseband has been upgraded to the latest version 2011-12-05 in which the EDGE problems has been fixed.
BTW, the carrier name will be displayed in the notification area.
It seems that the ME865 got this update nearly a month ago, why your ME865 received it this morning?
This time the update is for AT&T's MB865, but I found nothing new except what yinzhili mentioned on ME865.
i dunno, bought it 2 weeks ago. did regular system update check. told me i am up to date and this morning it just popped up. well its working though and yeah edge connections are better now as you guys said.

ICS update for Rodgers ->ATT

Today, as I'm sure you are all well aware of, official ics 4.0.4 made it way to the Rodgers version of the Skyrocket via Samsung Kies. My question is, couldn't devs take the update and remove the CIQ thus allowing its use for ATT / Unlocked users?

[Q] No ICS update?

Heya, First timer here, and just got a ME865 Motorola Atrix 2. Loving it so far
My question is that I just updated to the latest OTA 2.3.6, but im getting no notification for any ICS update for it. I have scoured the net for any sign that my model has gotten the update, and people all around the world are saying that they got it. Why havent I recieved anything about it?, Ive tried going to settings>about phone>System update, but that says im up to date also. Has there been ICS release for this phone?
This has to be a joke, right?

http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4182 . This is a upgrade through kies for ICS. Same current baseband as we have now, but there saying it offers security improvements.

I don't see why not. The Blaze was released in March of 2012. The T989 also a Tmobile branded phone is running Jelly Bean and its older than our model. Presumably based on little differences and what nots it only makes sense for them to give the update. They are still marketing and selling the device so, yeah.(Hopefully)

No requests, but if you or anybody could make something like ericmm did with ICS root, that would be awesome.
But shouldn't we be getting jelly bean because of that 18 month rule? I always wondered about that

Yep, shouldn't be an issue - I'll check again tonight, and like I said if no one else gets to it by the time I get my hands on it I'll post some stuff.
If I'm reading this right, the update to the new baseband is OTA if you are running non-rooted UVLH5 stock. There's nothing on samfirmware.com for this update to be available via KIES, so I would think that it's just OTA - that and it's only a 20 MB download. I'm going to go back to stock to see if this is OTA only and post my findings...
Nope. No OTA or KIES update available for me.

My interpretation of the T-Mobile info was that it was either - but you are right that it's not available via KIES currently so I could be wrong lol! No OTA has been pushed to the wifes phone yet, but that doesn't mean much for others of course.

It's just so weird to see it on Tmo but not on samfirmware. But yeah it says both... but I remember when ICS dropped it was on samfirmware almost immediately after release... could be because the ICS update was kies only... I'm not getting any OTA notification so... what gives..?

Maybe its based on region. Any west coast or Midwest users out there? It would be nice to confirm one user that has upgraded.
Edit: did you guys try updating or uninstall reinstall kies? I know its been updated since the last time I used it.
