Well iv downloaded the update twice through cheeesseee, keeps failing the install... I reset and have always been on 173...?

Ummmm, everyone that is saying they kept root. Are you 100% sure you still have it? Just tried opening up the cheescake app and it said "no root." Can't update the SU binary either.

Interesting.. I just opened Terminal Emulator and typed in su and after 10 seconds or so it said Permission Denied. That's not good news!

Rootkeeper lied!

Looks like a new exploit is needed for root in the new version.

Yep. None of us that updated have root.

I've seen a few others post this so far but can someone please explain how to get past the "communicating with server. please wait" message?

Thanks in advance

Keep trying different servers. The third one in Staging seemed to work best.

Well if we can get a dev on this I'll sacrifice mine for a root method.

It's fine. They'll find it soon enough. I tried the Utility root method for 4.0.3 and it did not work.

I got my soak test invite an hour ago. Using an ICS ROM now, but want everything to work.

Has anyone figured out how to take a screen shot? I know there is apps but I thought Volume Down + Power was supposed to be built in 4.0? Or was that only for the Nexus?

It still is the same way. I was able to take a screen shot holding power + volume down.

I was able to retain root after I updated to the ICS leak using my backup with VooDoo OTA root keeper.

I realize this is a stupid question, but could someone detail the EXACT steps to use Cheesecake to change servers, I see the "100" server, but cannot find the "Q1" server. And how do you know your selection "took"?

Thank you,
Jim

I think you mean QA1. Look in the QA category for the qa1 server.

I can promise you that you lost root. Open Terminal Emulator and type SU

I can promise you I have root...
