I get my Skyrocket next week. What is currently on it, JB or ICS official?
The latest official release is ics. There is no official jb released. Most likely is going to be 4.0.4.

I just got the Galaxy S2 Skyrocket last week. And now that ICS is starting to roll out how will Rogers release it to the phones. Is it OTA (over the air)?
I'm coming from an X10 and it had something called PC companion (a program installed on your PC) that came with it which would notify you of a OS upgrade.
Its not an official OTA release. It's been leaked add is available on the forums. Since you're with Rogers you'll have to use Clockwork Mod to install it. Are you familiar with that?

Thanks

In the past it's been via the Kies software - not sure if they're moving to OTA or not. They'll announce it, lol as the poster above said... lucky to see it by Christmas
no, rogers will not have OTA, as you can see there is no OTA option to update and all future updates will be done through kies
i know because i called for this exact purpose and both samsung and rogers told me the same thing
Okay so I have to plug my phone and check KiesAir everyday or will I get some kind of notification telling me an update is readY?

LOL - Christmas is an exaggeration but Rogers/Samsung are notoriously slow. On my Captivate I had Froyo about 2 months before official Rogers (and at that time I believe GB was already out) and I had GB for at least 4, if not 6 months before Rogers. A couple months after official Rogers GB I already had ICS running on it.
Consider how long ICS has been out... We're JUST getting a leak, and an AT&T one at that.

The latest leak in the thread below is quite probably the final ICS that will be released as OTA. You can install it if you're not afraid of having to get back to 2.3.6, if necessary.

My Atrix 2 (or more accurately, my wife's) is stuck on 2.3.6. When I go to updates in settings, it always says my phone is up to date. Is there a way to force it to upgrade to ICS?

That site went up around the release of the soak test. I can assure you they have not released the official OTA here in the US.

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. Hopefully this is a small upgrade before Jelly Bean. If and when that happened we could update our blobs and most certainly run any AOSP 4.2.2 Rom.:good::fingers-crossed:
Android version 4.0.4 / Baseband version T769UVMB1 - Current ICS version
Version

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)

I just checked... it isn't available via Kies (for me anyway). I'm sure someone else will get to it first but if not I'll get some flashable options together once I get my hands on it.
And if ever there was an excuse to update tweaked... here it is lol. Methinks this will be some work.

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.
