This thread has a rooted version of the OTA update with working icons (they'll change from white to green) -- it has to be flashed through ClockworkMod Recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179748
If you don't like the stock camera app and instead want the LG one, you can find a version of it that works with the OTA update here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166531
*******HELP NEEDED*******
A lot of people are requesting a ZIP for the OTA or a URL to download it from. If there's anyone who's still on stock 2.2 and is going to try to update to Gingerbread via the OTA update, please wait and PM me if you're willing to help. Thanks so much in advance! Credit will be given of course

That doesn't make sense. It states July 25. That was yesterday. The boards would be buzzing if anyone received the OTA!

I still have old baseband so I might try to update, only reason I didnt because rooting the device is a problem after doing it

There's going to be a lot of cheap g2x for sale on kijiji and craigslist.

This is 100% right. There was a post on the T-Mobile community page for RSA's yesterday. Since I work for T-Mobile i saw this as well. The OTA is v21e so it is the same version as the LG updater.T-Mobile also has it listed that if you do not want to do the OTA, to use the LG updater and update that way. This is a Official msg relased to all t-mobile employe's yesterday.

You don't need to go back to stock recovery, it will overwrite it and all you have to do is nvflash it again.

So all I need to do is keep cwm, restore my stock ROM that I had backed up as soon as I nvflashed cwm, and then I should get an OTA update in which I will then lose root and cwm and be at 2.3.3 stock? Correct?

I'm not seeing the OTA update. It says I have the current version. I restored a backup I made right before I started installing ROMs so my current info is Kernel 2.6.32.9, Software Version V10F, Baseband March 17, and Android 2.2.2. I also restored the stock recovery.
Any ideas? Does the OTA roll out slowly?

I think that's what people were doing with the LG update so I don't see why it would be different for OTA.

Many people got bricked g2x's so I'm worried, and your saying you did a stock recovery so I'm wondering why if you didn't have to

I have 2.2 but my baseband version its july 15 .I can't do the update via lg software, it says that im uptodate :/ .. how can I get the old baseband version?

[Q] Will rooted/flashed/ROM'd devices receive the new ICS update over the air?

Hey guys
My Nexus S is currently flashed with [CM7.1.0.1-N229] -=Nexus MV 10.19B=- |Fast&Stable|Ezekeel's Mod|Matr1x 9.0|
With the announcement by Google advising that all Nexus S devices will receive the ICS update, is there anything I need to do to my phone to receive this firmware update?
Do I need to restore back to default ROM etc, or can I leave as is?
Thanks for your help
Quentin

You won't receive the OTA, you need to be running stock for that.
Changes are that once the source is released someone will create an AOSP ROM faster than the OTA will reach you, so you could just flash that?
Greetz

don't worry
CM7 and other group will have ICS based-on ROM
so , only thing you may worry is how long you gonna wait
beside , you always can flash ICS stock ROM if you don't wanna wait anymore , don't you think ?

anyone have any idea on when the ICS update will come to NS4G?

what if my phone is rooted then i have backup of my stock rom. does my stock rom receives ota update? what do you think so?

You should receive an OTA if you restore the stock image and one is available.

Would you need the stock recovery if you do receive the ota?

Rooting is required to Install ICS..?
Hi.
Can I install ICS without rooting my phone...? My phone is unlocked...
Thanks

You will NOT receive an OTA update unless you're running Android on a stock unrooted device. The only way you will run Ice Cream Sandwich is if you find an ICS ROM but most of them are in alpha stages, meaning not suitable for daily use.

Unlikely. Most OTAs do not do an assert on recovery and flash without any issue with CWM. If you've modified anything it does assert though it will fail.

It won't install though so you still won't be able to OTA ICS.

Why wouldn't it? Every other OTA has had no problem installing through CWM on a rooted stock system. Unless this OTA decides to assert recovery for some reason (the only reason it would fail as it would then be trying to patch recovery).

[Q] Revert from cm9 to stock gingerbread

Hi guys, I am having too many problems with CM9, and I want to revert, I'll just wait for OTA ics. Can someone guide me in how to revert? I want stock gingerbread, the one that came with the phone, no custom roms. I've got a 9020A.
Thanks for the help.

Just flash cwm or twrp and then install superuser.zip to root.

Make sure you have the latest superuser.zip and you have to flash it a few times.

I am in Kies and my current firmware is PDA:KJ7/PHONE:LE2/CSC:KJ7 (RWC) and if I click on Firmware Upgrade and Initialization I get a message saying SGH-I727R does not support initializing.
Am I doing something wrong? Can you get the update from Kies if your phone is root?
Thanks.

What is the build date of this Rogers ICS update?

If I'm on a ROM can I just go ahead and update via keis? Or so I have to reinstall an official build first?
Really not sure I want to revert back to TouchWiz from SKY ICS though, any comments on the Rogers build?

could someone grab the radio from this and make cwm flashable please ?

Nexus S M200 can't update JellyBean?

i have Nexus S korean version (M200). Now, running ics 4.0.4(stock rom), and i try to check update Jeanbean. But i get " the system i currently up to date" . Cann't M200 update JB?? who can help me about this?? :crying:

I'm pretty sure that it's going to take a long time for KT to update to JB. M200's update is from KT not Google. That's why it takes more time for M200 than other variants. But you can always root and flash custom ROMs like me.

First I updated with the stock image of international version using this thread

This changed the baseband version from M200 to XXXKl1
After reboot I was able to get 4.1.1 via OTA
I haven't seen any problems so far
Are there any that I may not have experienced yet?

I am from Kolkata,India.Using m200 korean model.Have the same problem as the threadstarter.I guess when you're using it smoothly then inshallah,i too would.
Just to be pretty sure,you're telling me to follow ONLY this:
First up, let me tell you that doing this is not necessay to get the OTA or having a smooth JB experience. The JB OTA installs without a wipe which means the data is preserved.
UPDATE: Google has put up the full image for 4.1.1 [i9023, i9020a and i9020t] . Now you do not need to clean flash ICS and then JB. Follow the part 1 of the guide below and flash the JB image instead of ICS. Nothing more to it.
Thanks anshumandash for pointing it out
That being said, I wanted to have the real stock image on my Nexus S and then Upgrade to JellyBean. Below are the steps that I took.
Go to this GoogleAndroidImages page and download the appropriate image for your phone & download. Since mine is an international version a.k.a I9023, I chose that ROM.
The download will be a tar.gz file. Use a utility like 7Zip to uncompress it. The tar.gz will have a .tar file inside and the /tar file will have a folder. Extract the folder to your PC. For my download, the folder was named soju-imm76d
Next Steps will wipe your phone, completely
Reboot your phone into bootloader mode.
Open a command prompt, navigate to the folder in step 2.
Enter the below commands, the image file names are for my download, modify it to the file names in your folder before running (I assume that you have fastboot working)
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-crespo-i9020xxkl1.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-crespo-i9020xxki1.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w update image-soju-imm76d.zip

RIGHT?Meaning just the above process?
---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------
also,this means it'll wipe all my data/apps/settings ? ?

Yes you too can try..
for me, after the first step , I rebooted a couple of times and automatically got JB via OTA.
Insha-Allah you should also get the same.
But proceed with caution and download factory ICS image from google.
