[Q] Official ICS Kies Update. Is it really out? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Is it true that the official ICS for the Skyrocket is out via Kies? I don't want to go through all the trouble to figure out how to update using Kies with SpoofFW (which isn't working, no Product Code) and all that if it's not really out.
But if it is out, is it somewhere that I can install it using Odin? I'm not able to find it anywhere.
I've not tried it, but will Kies work if I flash 2.3.5? It's saying my phone isn't supported as it is. I'm guessing because it's rooted.
Suggestions? I'm running Embryo 4.0.4 right now and it's pretty good but I wanted to check out the official release.

No

It is not out yet, but it is likely that it will be pushed out by Kies because that's how the I777 was updated. Don't stop checking if you got an unrooted 2.3.5 or 2.3.6.

It was fot Rogers (Canada)
Do anyone have idea of when will come the AT&T ISC? theres already Jellybean in the way

I looked at some threads and came across old stuff. I find stuff on the web that says it's out, but I don't feel like reverting back to an old version of droid just to check.
Here's a couple of places I've found that says it's out.

But I may be mistaken here. Unless there's a difference between the Skyrocket and the standard S2. I thought the only difference was the clock speed. I thought the ROMs I have installed were for the S2 and Skyrocket. Hmmm

It isnt out for the Skyrocket yet just the Galaxy S II.. we are still unaware when and how the update will be done :/

there's a big difference in hardware. If you installed regular s2 Roms you would be hard bricked.

So we can get sources to make everything work. The custom ROMs are using Rogers kernel. We will be able to get Hdmi working, which I don't use anyways, and bluetooth fully working.

I was getting the same thing earlier this evening (also running 2.3.6), but now when I check it says "current software is up to date."
When it gives you that message, it just means that:
1) You're using data
2) You can't connect to their servers.
Sorry to burst your bubbles, but there is no update.
Trolled by AT&T, perhaps?

Is it necessary to un-root and return to stock before upgrading the firmware?
I side-graded into firmware mode which switched the root access and it installed into the sd cards just fine.

Yes, however the only way to get this update from Verizon has been if you purchased or received a GSIII with an updated sticker on the box. It hasn't been pushed as an OTA yet though.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I got a S3 today and it has G1 on it. I would be listed under received for free, becuase the ICS OTA update killed flash player on my razr.
I wish I knew G1 Vs old build, but so far every thing has been good. ( That GPS is very fast and it hold's on to 4G well + wifi works very well. I have never seen a phone get that kind of speed from wifi.)

I wouldn't bother. F2 is better. Has full search functionality and other than that there is no noticeable difference. I actually got an "updated" one and rolled back to F2.

When you say VRLF2, VRLG1, etc... are you referring to the baseband? VRLF2 is my baseband version but reading these posts, it sounds like you are talking about the version of ROM.
In the Synergy thread, it says "ICS 4.0.4 - Latest I535VRALG1 Base". I have Synergy installed but my baseband is VRLF2. Are these two different things?
Thanks

Yes they are different and you can flash the updated g1 baseband (radio/modem) using Odin even if you are locked and unrooted because it is Samsung official.

Yes, I am new to the forum mtdew no need to point that out, i just thought people who didn't use keis often would like to know. Any other pearls of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Anybody want to bet how many threads will be started about it. I see 2 so far. I can't wait for the "JellyBean bricked my phone" threads and the ever-so-awesome, "Will I lose root if I update?" variety of threads..
still using the last leaked jelly bean lol
I would like to know what type of battery life people are getting with the stock JB rom. I'm on the unofficial AOKP 4.2 and have had outstanding life @ 1d 20h 4m with a 45min bluetooth call without charging at 7% left! I don't do much in my phone so screen time is usually less than 25%. I can post a screen shot if there are any doubts, but the stock ICS rom gave me just as good performance. Still love my CM 10.1 and AOKP though. The dev's have done some outstanding work!
