Look at the following description and choose the right one.
(1) Flash back to stock rom and stock recovery via easy unroot.
(2) Re-root via nachoroot
(3) Install OTA rootkeeper.
(4) Wait for ICS. Call in sick everyday if you have to. Keep mashing the check for update button.
That seems like a lot of pain when the devs are certain to adopt the ICS Asus rom as base to their custom roms.

Is there a reason for flashing back to stock and rerooting rather than just using OTA Rootkeeper?

Because if you rooted via nvflash then you won't be able to do an OTA update even if you have ota rootkeeper. Trust me, I've already tried it all.

Well sure. That might be. But that will take time.
Some people want the ICS update the very second it is out. Reverting to stock allows them to get it the second it is out without waiting for ROM developers to update and retweak their ROMs for a new major Android-version, a process which most likely will take some time.
Besides. I like to know how the stock experience is before going for something different. If stock is good enough, I see no reason to rely on custom ROMs.

OTA update will not work if you're on a custom ROM or have CWM recovery.

The OTA update will not automatically install if CWM is installed like it is the case on a completely stock TF.
Therefore some people adjust the OTA update (remove recovery and add root) and publish this so you can install this with CWM. See developer forum.
The original OTA update also include recovery update (where CWM is installed) and remove root. You can use OTA rootkeeper to avoid loosing root.
Summary:
- root with stock rom and stock recovery will allow OTA update from Asus but you loose root; use OTA rootkeeper to avoid loosing root
- root with stock rom and CWM recovery will not allow OTA update from Asus; use adjusted OTA update and install with CWM (keeps root and CWM)
- custom rom, then no OTA update possible; just wait for update of developer custom rom

Well, stock has gone a long way from back in May. Back then, I went with custom roms because they were more stable and smoother to work with. Recently, I flashed back to stock and have been using it daily. Could not tell the difference between stock and custom rom anymore. Asus, or google, has done a good job at stabilizing and improving the original stock rom.
When ICS comes out, I will at first use stock. Then I will try out custom ICS roms. I'll evaluate them on a regular day to day usage. I don't care much for all the tests that people do. I'm a realistic guy. I believe in reality.

Sorry that just made me laugh. A stock rom being good enough would mean no need for custom roms and so far, not one single device has had one. Not even vanilla rom's from Google themselves.

This is the guide I used and it worked fine. I wound up with a bunch of force closes after I downgraded, but I managed to be patient and get through them far enough to be able to root the device. It just took longer to get the device show up in the adb list of connected devices.
I think the force closes were related to a gmail widget that I had on my home screen, but not certain of that.
yes decided to follow that guide just trying too back stuff up with out root its tough dont want to loose my dolphin bookmarks etc but with them all being on the internal sd it gets wiped so going to back up as much as i can and root later

I am interested to see if any of you get a custom ROM and if you think it significantly improves performance.
At the moment, I am quite disappointed in the performance of the tablet.
Been holding off rooting due to not wanting to void warranty, and not positive about how/if can get back to stock for warranty purposes.
I want to be sure it is really worth the effort, and risk of warranty issues.
hi all I have the ATT nexus S and am very confused with all the posts.
I would like someone to point me in the right direction for the best way to get my phone from CM7 to ICS

Wrong section. Anyways Flashing this from CWM recovery is just fine. No issues at all.
This belongs in the q&a section but to answer your question the easiest way would be to use this rom

Wait for a proper ROM posted from the OTA 4.0.3 and then flash that. There is not a proper ROM posted yet. Do not flash any of what you see right now as you may loose the custom recovery and don't restore the nandroid from that thread.

If you have a I9020T or I9023 model, flash the respective LATEST (2.3.6) official gingerbread flashable rom, then download the update to ICS.
However doing this will lose clockworkmod + root. Though it's not too hard to regain those privileges.

I don't have enough posts to add to the thread in the Dev forums, so I will ask here.
My Iconia A500 is not rooted, I don't feel that I needed it to be rooted most of the time. Now that is out of the way, I have questions.
Is there a version of this Dev leak that I can flash if I don't care about rooting or recovery? I believe the version he leaked is a CWM or RA recovery flashable only, so I would need the original untouched release.
If I do flash this, I should be able to flash future versions correct, or possibly the final version of the ICS release?
Essentially I would like to use this release on my tablet without caring about root or recovery, but I also don't want to screw myself for future releases.
Is it possible to reflash back to an old Honeycomb release?
You might not be able to post in the dev thread, but you can read it. All your answers are in there, most are even in the OP!

If you don't care about root or recovery, than it is best you stay stock, and wait for OTA updates. This will keep you relatively safe.
Take a deep Breath this could turn out to have issues and not be complete.. There is only reports that it is flash-able.This does not guarantee that is will Run properly.As its a Acer development rom leaked to the public..
I will try it after there are 2 or 3 more days of comments.If it seems to be working well.I must have Root. Hope the post above mine has helped.
JUST Think if it does not pan out you can be one that said IM SMART I WAITED..
GOOD LUCK . DONT CROSS THE STREET WITHOUT LOOKING BOTH WAYS.
This rom is very easy to be flashed on the a500, dear erica_renee. I've done it tonight and I did come, like you, from the latest version of the unrooted Acer stock ROM.
In order to do this, you must:
- flash from your PC, a rooted rom version 3.2 on your tablet with the little app "DotNetDetecter". You can download it from somewhere on XDA Iconia A500's developers threads but I don't remember in which thread I found it.
- install the app "Acer Recovery" (free on the market)
- download the zip of RA recovery (You'll find the link in the Vache's thread) and install this recovery from your CMW recovery you've installed with the rooted rom 3.2 in the first step
- download and install from the RA recovery the ROM ICS that you can download on the website of Vache... Choose the "RA recovery" version of this ROM.
Very pleasant version, this ICS ROM ... but the low volume defect when I record sounds is still present...
Again and again I'm more and more convinced that this problem comes from the LOW QUALITY of these microphones !!!

I could go on but i will not .. THANKS IN Advance
No root on ICS (yet?).
I guess that you will loose it as well when you will install this Rom as an update by OTA...
I don't really need a root on my tablet, personaly, except when I want to test a custom Rom.
There is maybe a solution to keep the root anyway. Check in the thread of Vache.
Apart from that, everything works better than ever for me (gps, tether through my htc Desire, caméra, etc ... except the recurrent prob with the microphones ).
I don't use Titanium backup (that needs root, isn't it?) but MyBackup pro.
Email exchange? Do you mean the app working with Outlook on Windows? I don't use it neither. I use gmail and I import my other accounts on gmail. Sorry. But my email accounts (pop) work perfectly well.
Everything works very well actually with this Rom. I didn't notice any problem till now. No way to go back to HC...
I wonder if Thor has this yet. He is probably the best a500 ICS dev right now.

Just to let you know. I have flashed with the full 4.0.3 (not CWM/rooted one), and then used the first method here to restore back to 3.0.1, then installed CWM to install a ROM without any problems. I have since updated to 4.0.3 full again as it's by far the best ROM for me.
Ny the way, I noticed this morning that the ability to disable bloatware has been added to the stock ics rom via app section of settings, so one less reason for me to need root.

How Universal are these Kernels?
My concern, implementing these kernels without cross referencing the serials for applicability within a given SKU group could lead to future problems. I have two US tabs that behave differently after upgrading to ICS, I strongly suggest that device differences be addressed first before doing any dev work on these kernels.

I 2nd this. The only way to go back to ICS is to get another tablet with ICS on it. Once you are on jb, that's it. There are so many changes under the hood with the jb update that it's most likely not going to happen.

No, you are not completely right.
It must be possible somehow since the Asus Service Centre of my country (Hungary) offered me to put back the ICS ROM when I complained about the bugs of the JB upgrade. They wrote me they would do it free of charge, covering by the warranty, because my ROM it's pure stock, without unlocking.
It's another story that now, after receiving the fresh OTA update I may not want to get back to ICS...

I agree with the above poster. I was locked and did the OTA JB update, which completely borked by tablet. I sent it back RMA'd to ASUS with JB and got it back with ICS. It was definitely the same pad since I had a long scratch on the back. They were able to do it somehow

Perhaps they were able to do something similar to nvflash only more enhanced. When I made my statement, it was referring to us normal tablet owners, not to those that work for the manufacturer. . This is good confirmation though, thanks for that.

No problem. If we were somehow able to get our hands on whatever ASUS has to be able to do that, we would be able to unbrick ourselves in the future if anything went wrong. That would a powerful tool to have

And a revenue loss for them for what they make on repair costs so don't hold your breath lol.

Wouldn't they have the tools necessary to flash literally everything, so any old stuff including bootloader would effectively be overwritten, and then no problem for reverting back
I suspect that they have dedicated hardware for this purpose, makes it way more secure

Yeah i'm sure they know since they built it. To bad they will probably never let us know

I'm too scared to try it, but I might be tempted if someone with NVFlash that can recover if it doesn't work, but the following link HERE says we can revert to the .30 ICS Bootloader from the .13 JB Bootloader.
Can anyone confirm or willing to test the capability for me?

It is already confirmed by xplowild on his CM10 thread. He was using NVflash to jump back all the time.
Because I am on JB I cant confirm it myself, cause I cant use NVflash

The thread talks about downgrading from .13 to .30 by flashing the .30 firmware update WITHOUT using the nvflash, that's what I was wondering if it was confirmed to be able to downgrade to ICS to the .30 firmware without needing NVflash?

There is no way. I tried all methods. You cant get the old Bootloader to flash, because of the signature missmatch
BTW
You can flash any ICS Rom over JB. It just want boot. So its not in any use to do so.
Just never do the bootloader wipe and you will be fine with fastboot.

Anyone have any of the threads where someone bricked going from JB to ICS? I have searched and searched with no examples!
I actually tried flashing ICS over JB as an attempt to downgrade. This was my process.
I tried flashing a custom ICS rom, and nothing happened, practically. Of course, I wiped the Rom, so when I tried to reboot, I was warned that no Rom existed. I tried flashing the stock rom from Asus, and that did not work either. So I use fastboot to push the ICS recovery to the tablet. When I attempted to reboot, it failed. When I tried to get back into recovery, I received a message under the message "This device is unlocked" in red letters saying, "Signature mismatch." At this point, my stomach was in my throat. I rebooted into flashboot, and sent the jb recovery image back to my tab. This was when I reflashed a custom JB Rom, and gave up. I know that I could've tried using fastboot to push both the bootloader from Asus and an ICS recovery image, but seeing those red letters was enough warning for me.
So I'm now JB for life, and I'm fine with that!
Who need ICS back? I think that Jelly Bean is just great on this tablet (at least with a custom rom). I upgrated and I never looked back lol
NVFlash!
I should have said this is in reply to geldebanho
Sorry for the confusion..

To be honest, I did not necessarily want to go back to ICS, but I didn't like the thought that I couldn't. Rebellious human nature... . I flash between GB and ICS on my phone on a daily basis.
