I have read several posts talking about soak testing. What is it? Also when the OTA is released is there anything special that us rooted users need to do to have a successful update and retain root.

So to answer the first question, SOAK is a early release of a Motorola OTA update to a few people for testing. And you could try to retain root or just update and root. (Depends what the Devs say at that point)

Our skyrocket is the sgs2's bastard son so we dont have a ton of developer support yet. That being said the sgs2 does not even have an ics port. Patience sir will pay off. We will be geting ics officialy before long. But we dont even have cm support so no cm9 or cm7 anytime soon. I have high hopes we will pick up more dev support in the coming months but as for now if u want ics your going to have to port ot yourself or just wait. But i promise if someone starts working on it. It will be posted in the dev section and be a hot topic
If you want to help then go to Samsung OSRC Click on Web Mail on the upper right corner to submit the interests
email them there is an interest in developing ICS on this hardware. Without the hardware binaries from Samsung there is no way to compile working hardware with ICS.
What's crazy is I have a captivate and I can run ics on that device don't believe me, just check the cappy development page. I'm happy with this device but I knew better lmao!!!

Totally unnecessary thread. If you didn't create something, it doesn't belong in development. There's no such thing as a [REQ] thread in development. Closed.
How do I Root my Skyrocket with the above installed? Thanks

Marvin02, This article shows Root for 2.3.5 & 2.3.6 So will it work for Ince Cream also that I showed 4.0.4????
If you're running an ics rom

Post from the root thread linked to
Post from one of the ICS leak threads (the first leak IIRC)
Skyrocket's One Stop Shop for All Things ICS 4.0!
which is stickied in the dev section (second from the top at the moment) - where I found this link:
[GUIDE]{ROOT}How To Root The ICS Leak
Which gives the same method as the previous thread I linked to.
My previous post was from my phone so I posted the first link I found that I knew worked.

The one-click installs of the ICS leaks do not come pre-rooted. They are stock ROMs with all of the bloat and no root.

Make sure that you have busybox installed. I prefer this installer from the market.
Here is a thread with a video. I have not viewed this or used the instructions it contains, but some people are more visual than others.
Disclaimer: All info found using the forum search tools and is not original thought. I know it is a novel idea to search but darn it - I really like feeling the feeling of independence it gives me! Actually reading the threads/posts is a good way to keep my brain working.
Edit: I used the odin CWM, flash superuser.zip method described in the links above to root both the first and third UCS leaks on my personal phone.
Got it Rooted. Thanks guys...........

It says you have to be unlocked. Does that mean you need the developer S3 phone?
Any details? I am not familiar with Scott's ROMs ...

No, I flashed already using CWM 6.0.1.0, I don't know why he used the verbiage "unlocked"
Scott as in "nitroglycerin33"?
Edit:
Oh nevermind, I am dumb.
I used his Cleanrom on my Rezound. Good roms and he updates the. Often with new features and quickly fixes bugs.
I recommend them, just have to keep up with it over on his site as he does not use XDA anymore.

I do post on XDA and I post frequently.
I have two ROMS out that are NOT on XDA... Yet... ONe will be tonight.
I have a friend that runs another Dev site and he has helped me out a lot learning things I didint know.
I am posting my NEW work exclusively to his website for the first week to try and help him get his website rolling.
Noobs have nothing to do with anything. I like working with newbs.
Once again, thank you for your support. Check my website, facebook, twitter, (and out of respect for XDA I wont name) the other site.
Guys, I will post and support here soon... Trust me. I am just working out a new method of posting my work.
You will get sick ass ROMS for this device, this I promise you...
Oh and as far as the whole "unlocked" thingy... My bad, I have a standard template for all my ROMS and I forgot to take that out. (This is yet another reason why I am waiting... so I can make sure my stuff is rock solid before I post to XDA).

what?
totally not the same person....
And I am not mad that my work was reposted. So dont feel I am *****ing...
I am just trying something new... XDA is still my home for now...
First off if you have not developed the ROM it does not go in development EVER!
Second off if you do not have the author's permission it does not get posted on XDA!
Taken down at Scott's request
Do not post ROMs that are not yours.
Next time will be an infraction

So I have been reading alot of post saying that the OTA is released in Asia. So I have an AT&T A2 from the US that's rooted and has cheesecake installed. Is there anything that I need to do to have a successful update? I'm on 2.3.6 right now and as far as I know I haven't changed any of my system files, other than how I look for updates.
Sent from my MB865 using xda app-developers app
Good sir, there are MANY posts on how to get your A2 on ICS. We officially have three ICS leaks for this phone.
Only ONE of which you can roll back to GB with. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779968
And please, from now on use the search bar and search for your answers before posting a new thread.

And yet another ICS Thread. I sense the same when JB leaks roll out.
Ok folks, use the search button and you shall be rewarded. I know people can be cautious when jumping to another OS, but there's no need to start new threads for things that have already been covered. Just post your issues in the current threads, and they will get answered.
So, thread closed.
