    @ darkeevee - The "ICS" update for S2 is just Gingerbread with TouchWiz Android 4.0 sticker on it. If you want proper ICS, you can flash CyanogenMod9 over at XDA (assuming your phone is rooted with CWM)

    Is your phone an S2 though? the T-Mobile/Verizon doesn't matter, it will still be vulnerable to the root exploit I used for mine.

    [edit]

    Apparently the exploit was fixed in Android 2.3.6 - new root guide using ODIN.
