Hi everyone! I've been lurking a lot, but not registered until now.
I have been anxiously awaiting the ics update for my razr, but haven't gotten it yet. As I was checking my info on my phone I found that I only have 2.3.5.
Shouldn't I have gotten 2.3.6 by now to prepare for ics? I really want my ics but how will I ever get it if I don't even have 2.3.6?
If it helps, I live in Sweden and my operator is tele2/comviq.
If I search for updates it says it's up to date. What can I do?

did you buy your phone used? maybe previous owner flashed with something weird?
Nope. It's bought brand new and I've updated once as far as I can remember. Still says 235 though.
Any idea? I'm so over it. I just want a version of ICS that works here in Sweden, any way really..
Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
What version are you on? You can RSD an EMEA fastboot file to get the European updates, but there are probably better solutions if you don't want to mess with your phone :angel:
I'm on version 651.73.30.XT910.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU .
Does that say anything to any of you guys..?
I'm fine with going the manual way of updating, as long as the version works as intended here in Sweden.
Although I do want the official release, not an earlier leak or a mod.
Yup, that's the latest version for the NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU, I'm on it as well (in Israel). There isn't an update to 2.3.6 for us
Not everyone in Sweden received 2.3.6, some was lucky updating to 2.3.6 (I was one of them) try to update via Motocast and see if there is anything there otherwise wait for the official ICS

So is there any faster way to get to ICS for us?

I think if we waited so long, we can wait a few more days. We should be getting ICS in Q2... or so motorolla says.
But if you want, there are many posts around here on how to RSD-lite-your-way to ICS.
But does any of it apply for those of us in Europe? I've only seen the Verizon and Brazil updates.
Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
Yes, there is this T-mobile EU leak http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688241
Since I'm not that well informed, I'm going to ask to be sure.
If install it that way, am I still "official ROM" and can get future OTA? And everything will work as intended even though I don't have T-mobile?
Edit: also, since I've never updated like this with a new version of android, will I loose apps etc? It's not really a problem, just wondering.
Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
No, if you install that OTA you will not be entitled to the official OTA's from Motorola (AFAIK). And I know that going back to Gingerbread is not possible if you are on ICS. In my opinion is better to wait these 4 days and see if Motorola releases the official ICS on time (Q2)
I don't know if the one I gave you the link about is official (I doubt it) it's considered a leak and there might be bugs
If you cant wait, install EMEA 2.3.6 with RSD-Lite, then you should get the OTA as soon as it arrives in Europe. That's what I've done
@percz, does that mean that you've received the update, and does it mean that you got it from the official update service?
Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
Also in Sweden, as someone mentioned earlier, I only got the update through motocast. Phone always just said it was upto date.
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
So you got the update through motocast without fiddling with anything?
Edit: tried through motocast, nothing.

Yeah, now that I think about it, I installed the 2.3.5 fastboot and got an OTA to 2.3.6. I've made a post about it somewhere...
If you can and want to, could you send me a pm with what you used and how you did it?
Also, doesn't fast boot lock you to only manual updates in the future?
Sent from my XT910
You've got PM!
The fastboot files are Motorola original, just like the ones they use at the service centers, so there should be no problem
Is this it? Could it be the long awaited ICS?
If so, I hope the GPS bug from the last leak is fixed.
"Current software is up to date" is all I see.
Anybody else? I am in Canada on Bell, on Team Perfection rom so I cannot verify anything here.
More than likely not ics.
Way to tell us what carrier you are on, OP.
Current Software is up to date

nothing from KIES or checking OTA with ATT. Software is up to date.
Happened on mine the other day (USA ATT), but my guess is that is the default message that appears when you check for a software update with weak/fringe cellular service.
I attached a screencap of the message.

I had the same thing the other day. Happened when I received my replacement phone from At&t.

Every damn time someone's phone can't reach the server, we have to see a thread about it.
Hey at&t, the wording of that message sucks and confuses people.
It happened to me the other day.... I checked xda and there were no party-popers going off so I cried :crying: a little and figured it was a false alarm
I doubt it will come OTA. More likely on Kies like the SGSII on ATT.
Update
my Korean Galaxy note is trying to update with a 34.75MB update i am not sure what it is as my phone will not take it because it is rooted and has a custom recovery. The phone reboots to install the update but fails. Any Ideal what I can do ?

do you think it could be the CWM recovery or the Root that is stopping the update or fail ? BTW I am already using Stock 4.0.3 Korean Phone Model E160L....dont know what this update is about
I'm new to the site so please excuse my potential ignorance if this has been previously answered or if I missed anything.
So, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305. It was originally on T-Mobile UK but was completely unbranded so on startup doesn't show t-mobile, no network bloatware etc... and I have since had it unlocked (via unlock code, not root)
Waiting for the premium suite update has prompted me to wonder... as I am unlocked am I still governed by t-mobiles wait times to release the update (I actually use a voda SIM in it)? Or as its unlocked/unbranded should I effectively be at the front of the queue as it wereand receive it with other unlocked handsets? Or will I not get it at all as I'm not using a t-mobile SIM?
I'm becoming very impatient waiting for the update as got rid of my note ii in anticipation for the s3 receiving the update. Which after giving more thought to I'm not even sure if I will receive as I have the i9305 rather than the i9300 and they didn't really say specifically who the update was for?
I am on the cusp of rooting just so that I can add the premium suite on the Rom but have limited experience in rooting (only done it a couple of times) worried that I'll miss something and wont be able to return it to stock once the upgrade becomes available via kies as there are so many different guides/roms/software
Appreciate your thoughts

Don't quote me but I don't think it matters what SIM you have in, you should still see the update when it rolls out to that model number.. so long as your not rooted.

Update has nothing to do with locked or unlocked .
You get the TMobile update for your phone .
Or join XDA and flash a stock rom .

Thanks for the info so far. Can someone tell me if I need to do something specific to ensure I can restore to its original non rooted state in the future as I can't wait for the update anymore.
The update is out in the UK but I haven't received it yet

You will get updates when they come like normal. If you want them now, you need to search XDA for proper information on how to root and flash your HTC on a custom recovery.

I've did the: htc software update and the software update(settings-> about)
but still no luck, is it because I've unlocked the at&t htc one varient?
or do i have to wait a bit longer?
The updates are rolling out as we speak
Meaning, it's no available to everyone from the get go, but becomes available in "waves".
Each wave pushes the update to more att devices until all have it.
TLDR be patient, u'll get it in the next few days

You should try ViperOne rom 4.4 kitkat, best rom out there! For the htc one. For AT&T and T-Mobile, and international! and I think for sprint and Verizon to but I'm not sure.

I have a AT&T 6.3" Mega unlocked using it with T-Mobile...
have couple a questions for whenever they push the 4.4 update...
1. as i am on T-Mobile, and the phone is AT&T will i get the OTA update and be able to install it?
2. as the phone is unlocked now, if im able to update OTA, will i lose the unlock, or will still have unlocked phone that i can use on T-Mobile?
3. This one im pretty sure about... my phone is rooted, after updating it to 4.4 i will lose root correct?
Thanks to all that can help with those Qs

You will not be able to do the update if there is one which I highly doubt there will be I know there has been rumors but its not likely if your rooted you'll need to unroot cause it'll trip Knox's and cause issues as for doing the update you'll need to borrow a Sim from someone with at&t and then it'll update or manually do it through keys I am developing a recovery for the i527 to be able to flash 4.4+ Roms look for my threads in development for the mega

since you're rooted, you will never receive any update via ota from at&t.
if you really want to regain update via ota from at&t, you have to unroot, return everything back to stock.
or you can just download the update from sammobile and manually update it with odin, but there's a chance that you might break root.
if you sim unlocked by using an unlock code, then i think it should be fine and permanent.

i dont realy care about the root, i care more if i will keep the unlock, but im not sure how was the phone unlocked... wonder if theres any way to check...
been waiting on the 4.4 as the ROM sizes supposed to be smaller, and the new compression format that you can choose from the developers options so is no more Dalvik would help free more RAM and speed up the device...
the kernels and radios would be updated aswell, making it possibly better battery life and stronger signal aswell...
hope they push it by the end of the month
