False Alarm? ICS

**Hopsain** · 08-02-2012, 11:51 AM

So, I went into my setting, downloaded the 7mb pre-patch thingy, phone restarted & started downloading something from Verizon or whatever, restarted a couple of more times, and BAM, still on 2.3.4

What gives?

When I go into setting and click check new, nothing happens.

Did anyone actually get ICS?
Did anyone have my problem?

Whats your battery level at?

**Hopsain** · 08-02-2012, 12:01 PM

65 on an extended battery

When I did it, the initial update went through, rebooted 3 times, then a window popped up immediately telling me to download the 299MB update, no check was needed.

First phone is almost finished with 299MB download, should be rebooting within the next few minutes... that one will take a while.

EDIT: First phone is rebooted and flashing now, second one is downloading...

That just happened to me as well

I'm on 95% extended battery level.

What a joke

I've had the same problem but my phone didn't download anything after it updated the firmware and I went to check my status and it says update successful but still on gb also

I believe that you have to download it via wifi. My download is in progress right now. I will update you all later.

My first phone started D/L on 3G, spent 20 minutes and barely moved progress bar then I got home for lunch, phone switched to WiFi and the download completed in less than 8 minutes. Flashing now...

Same thing happened to me and then it started downloading about 10 minutes later.

**Huggie87** · 08-02-2012, 12:13 PM

I am currently on WiFi

Downloading now here in Tampa. Did the 7.1mb firmware patch, reboot, now downloading 299mb update.

**LOBBS** · 08-02-2012, 12:18 PM

I just got the OTA. If someone wants to explain which files to pull, I'll put it up on my Mediafire account. I've got 600 gigs of available bandwidth.

I just downloaded the 299MB and installed it and we are now rebooting. We will see where this takes me.

Downloaded on 4g

**Hopsain** · 08-02-2012, 12:23 PM

Now it says

"Android is Upgrading...
_____________________________
Optimizing application (x)/86"

Also, the loading screen is in what looks like an ICS window look.

It's gotta be the real update. So excited!

**veevans01** · 08-02-2012, 12:26 PM

Firmware is downloading on my Rezound as I type. Atlanta Ga.

**Hopsain** · 08-02-2012, 12:27 PM

Done. I got it

Looks pretty swell

**acejavelin** · 08-02-2012, 12:32 PM

On ICS now!!! Sweet, but seemed really sluggish at first (assume stuff going on the background), and cache/dalvik seem to have been wiped, had to relogin to stuff and reauthorize some apps. Has speed up to faster than I ever recall after a few minutes.

**omie19** · 08-02-2012, 12:39 PM

just finish downloading, but my battery dropped below 30% so i have it on the charger ready to go

Ok so 15 minutes later I do a manual update check and it started downloading the ICS update and now it's all done

At first it was really sluggish but 10 minutes later its running super fast, even with my Shadow Galaxy Live Wallpaper!
Ok I'm happy now but I think now it's time to complain about 4.1 JellyBean! Who's with me? LMAO
