How can I get ics on my phone?

I know that everyone that bought their phone from tmobile can just update it by going through their settings and doing it but mine can't. I currently have a unlocked tmobile sensation and I have at&t on it and the phone is rooted with a custom rom called Android Revolution HD 3.5.2 by mike1986 and it says my android version is 2.3.4. I have no idea what all of this is but a couple of months ago my cousin did this for me on my phone and now I'm trying to get ICS on this. Is there anyway I can do it? Is there a guide or anything?
Thanks for reading.

yep there is a perfect guide for you
as you are already having custom rom ..probably you are SOFF ..so
just flash 3.33 firmware and then the rom
here is the perfect guide ..read that to the letter (post #1 and post #2 ..skip the soff parts )
FLASH 3.33 FW and ARHD 6.6.7

[Q] Just recieved my 300T Gold Edition

So I bought this version of the 300T from amazon <LINK> Is there any difference between this version of the 300T and the other version? I would also like to root my tablet for connecting my ps3 controller, ad free and titanium backup. My tablet is stock and fresh out of the box and has an ota update waiting to be downloaded and installed.
I assume this is the ota JB update. I won't install it yet until I get some advice.. .Posting the tablets info so you know what I have. Under about tablet I show> Android Version 4.0.3, Kernel version 2.6.39.4, build number IMLK7K.US_epad 9.4.3.30. What steps do you recommend I take in order to root this? If updating to ota JB makes it dangerous to root, (something about brickable and "unbrickable" methods or firmwares?) can I just root the ICS build and then install a JB rom? Thanks guys!

If you're planning to use a custom rom (which you're going to want to do anyways), then i suggest doing the update, then unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and flash CleanRom 2.6.1 Inheretence (i run mine with the stock kernel and its super smooth and fast, especially for games). No need to root as CleanRom is already a rooted ROM. And as far the GOLD edtion vs the regular edition most have, there's really nothing different...other that the color, there's really nothing more to the Gold edition.

Awesome thanks so much. Which guide would you suggest I follow in order to unlock the bootloader, root and install the rom?

No need to root.
Just install the unlocking tool found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697227
Then flash TWRP found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672108
Then make a backup and install CleanRom 2.6.1 Inheretence found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012560
Sorry for some reason when i try to do a hyperlink its not letting me.

I hope You didn't update to jelly bean yet. Whoever replayed missed a really important step.
Nvflash.
I missed out on this too, it only works with Ice Cream Sandwhich. Its for if you ever brick ur tab to something you can't fix urself. You use NV flash and it can supposably unbrick anything.
And the tf300 is weird. You can't flash Jelly Bean roms on Ice Cream Sandwhich and you can't flash Ice Cream Sandwhich roms on Jelly Bean. Unless said so by dev.. its because Asus messed with our bootloader.
Also with NV flash, you can update to Jelly Bean. Then downgrade back to Ice Cream Sandwhich. But without nvflash you can't downgrade once on Jelly Bean. So if you updated you can't use nvflash.
If this helped, don't forget about the thanks button

Says: Based on Official Asus Jellybean 4.1.1 / US 10.4.4.20, with JB 4.2 Google Apps and is ODEX ED!
I presume you don't need to downgrade back to ICS for the cleanrom and do the nvflash you are talking about?

You don't have to downgrade to ICS to flash a JB ROM, you can just flash it over that. Not really understanding your question.

Follow this guide to root/unlock/flash custom recovery, then flash cleanrom in your custom recovery of choice.

Also, Do I have to unlock the bootloader, or is it already unlocked?
Can I get the jelly bean update later on if I wanted?

Thanks for the link. Can you recommend a couple ROMs you think are good that are compatible with my phone?

I'm running Clean Rom 5.1 right now. It is a Sense 4.1, android 4.0.4 rom but it is waaayyy better than the stock rom. Very stable and great battery life. I've also ran his CleanRom JB rom and it is great also. Some people have had random reboot issue while running jb. Me included, but with Clean Rom JB I didn't have any. I've also heard good things about ViperXL.

All ROMs listed here are compatible with your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
Just read through the threads, and you can see what people like. Better yet, just look at the features of the ROMs, see which ones suit you, and try a few.
