[Q] Nexus s update - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
are new to the forum, and I had a request for help and clarification from you.
I recently purchased the nexus as if originally fitted Android 2.3.3, so far I have not received any OTA update it to 2.3.4 above it ... how can I do to solve this problem?
I can go to 4.0.3 without going first to the previous ones??
look forward to your responses on!!

There is a stickied thread in general that has the links to all of the updates for the NS. Go to your specific phone model and download either the update (2.3.3 -> 4.0.3 or similar) or a full rom which can be flashed at any stage.

[Q] Unlocked MyTouch Slide Question

I didn't see this addressed in any posts. I gave my son an unlocked Slide for Christmas. He is using it on AT & T and it still has the last original updated ROM on it. Does anyone know how he can update to Froyo 2.2 or 2.3 using an OTA from AT & T? Is there a comparable phone and where would I find that OTA if it exists? I wasn't sure if someone on here would have it or I'd have to contact HTC. Any suggestions? Or can someone link me to this subject on xda? Thanks for the assistance.

[Q] Gingerbread update question

Bought my Atrix in Australia with Bell firmware, rooted and successfuly flashed it with OLYEM_U4_1.4.2.gz some time ago.
All works fine.
With the forthcoming Telstra update to Gingerbread will I be able to just upgrade my Atrix without any hickups or do I have do do something else to it prior to upgrading.

[Q]What to do: Upgrade or Downgrade from 2.3.6

Hi guys. I got my Nexus S like 1 month ago and it's just great. The only problem that I have it's this crappy stock ROM I have from upgrading Android Build from 2.3.1 to 2.3.6 (Which appears to be latest when pressing System Update button in Settings).
I've been looking around for some custom ROMs to mount on my Nexus and I found out that none (or maybe I've found out wrong) support 2.3.6.
Should I downgrade to 2.3.4 or upgrade to ICS? And if so, how do I do it?
There is a Dev section where you can look for custom ROM.

Went there and found for 2.3.4 and 4. Updated it to ICS, but I'm having a small problem installing from sdcard, hehe...

Need help to update my i727 skyrocket

Hi everyone,
This is my first post in xda. I am new in this rooting or flashing etc. Please don't get irritated with my questions as I am new. I live in Bangladesh. I bought an at&t skyrocket i727 from a person just returned from usa which is unlocked.
My questions are
how do I update it into ics 4?
Should I wait for the update given by Samsung?
If I don't wait which will be the best and safe way to update? As I have seen so many ways discussed here I am really confused.
And after update do I need to unlock it again?
My phone details are
version 2.3.5
Baseband I727UCKJ2
kernel 2.6.35.11
Build GINGERBREAD.UCKJ2
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
first of all there is no official ics update for skyrocket the latest update is 2.3.6
although there have been many ics leaks the latest is the ucle2 leak and you can get more information from this link

I'm pretty sure there are sticky guides somewhere. That being said Please try searching before making a new thread.

[Completed] How to upgrade an Android OS on an unlocked phone?

I am currently having an issue trying to upgrade my phone from (Android OS 4.0.4 Ice cream Sandwich), I cant quite figure out how to do it or if it's even possible but I am trying to upgrade the phone from (4.0.4) to (5.0 Lollipop). As I said before i'm not even sure if its possible to do it but I would like all the help I can get. Also I have already rooted my phone assuming that I would most likely need to in order to upgrade but I have stopped there and don't know what to do now.
These are the phones specifications:
*Phone: Samsung Galaxy S2
*Model: SPH-D710
*Rooted: YES
*Purchase date: 2011-2012
*Provider: Unlocked phone
*Service: I'm using virgin mobile on an unlocked phone.
Those are all the specifications if any more are needed please just request in a reply.
So I'm trying to upgrade the version of the OS to 5.0, any help with this would be great if its not possible what is the latest OS I can upgrade it to and how would I do that?
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Ok, if you are on 4.0.4 then there are a few extra steps you need to go through before you actually get to where you can flash a custom ROM.
You are already rooted, next you will need to flash a custom recovery(CWM/TWRP/Philz), then you will have to flash a custom 4.3 ROM and an Ice Cream Sandwich modem, then you will flash a custom 4.4 ROM, then you can flash a 5.0 ROM, at least that's the steps i had to go through way back when i first rooted the one i have and flashed up to Kit Kat from 2.3.6(AFAIK there are no custom 5.0+ ROMs for the Epic 4G Touch but there are plenty of nice Kit Kat 4.4.4), I have one also and I've been looking for 5.0 for a while and haven't found one yet but i haven't dug deep to find one. If you find one please send me a PM with a link to where it is, I would appreciate it.
Try posting your question in the link below, the Epic 4G Touch forum is mostly dead and non-active threads, I doubt you will get any help or replies there.
