Root for ICS

Hello All,
I am a current Galaxy Nexus user but I have come over here to ask a few questions in regards to the I727. My friend owns this device and has just upgraded his phone to ICS 4.0.4 (Build # IMM76D.UCLF6), and he has come to me wanting me to root his phone for him. Now just for a little background, he has never been rooted and has always run his phone stock. He updated through the Kies software. I am pretty familiar with android and the rooting process. My questions is due to the fairly recent release of ICS is there a working way to root this device?
I have briefly browsed a few of the rooting threads and to my knowledge they are only working if you are running either 2.3.5 or .6. If someone wouldn't mind shedding some light on this situation, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hope this helps

So maybe I am a little spoiled with having the galaxy nexus. It just seems that after viewing a few of the threads and topics, that I see a lot of issues with ppl flashing and rooting this device? Now I do understand that most issues are user error..

They are more than likely user error. But you should be fine.

Almost 99% user error from people flashing other variants of gs2 -777, Global version
Also flash cm9 on his rocket as it's insanely better than stock twiz
CM9 Skyrocket

Any recommendations for a solid custom ICS ROM???

Bacons right i havent used nexusmod but if it's half of what his gb version than it's rock stable and fast
I just prefer aosp hence cm9 love
CM9 Skyrocket

I prefer aokp. And there is info on the "brick bug" in the link I posted earlier. I would share what my understanding of it is, but I'm not so sure myself and I don't want any misunderstanding of it. So feel free to take a look.

If you want aosp/aokp then go to Verizon galaxy s3 original android development and compare the many roms. If it's touch wiz you want then go to Verizon galaxy s3 android development and compare the many roms in that thread. They are all a little different and it depends on what your looking for. The links to flash are right there on the 1st page of the op. To ask someone for best rom and link sounds a little lazy to me. What if someone sent you wrong link and you ended up bricking your phone. Wouldn't you like to do a little research and make sure your getting the right zip? Just my opinion but what do I know.

I'm just wondering what's the issue with development on these tablets??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I497 using xda premium

I dont think there is a "issue" just no serious developers have obtained this tablet. I think in the tablet game most developers don't go for carrier ones.. I'm still setting up my PC but I'm going to try and get at least a stock deodexed ROM going tonight or tomorrow. What's the latest firmware for the i497.. I see a firmware for an Am2 having a hard time finding a place to download the latest firmware from?

Welcome to my world. It is a shame because I am betting a vanilla AOSP rom would run great on this tablet compared to the TouchWiz rom which is fine until I use it after using my Galaxy Note 2 and then it feels a bit sluggish.
I assume that the problem is the modem. I am not sure if flashing a ROM for one of the wifi models will boot. I am scared to try.

Just wondering if there is any change. Or maybe someone that is working on a rom for this. Thanks

You are lucky. At least you have JB. I have the ATT I497 and it still has ICS. Been trying to find out if I could at least install your ROM on my tablet but no one ever answers. Development is dead for these 2 versions.

Which rom?

Ask in that forum, you might get an answer before they close the thread down.
You should research for yourself though.

I also have the 3113. Like BadUsername suggested it's best to go there. But moderators don't like people posting topics about which rom is better. A little research goes a long way
