Update
This update fixes the Home screen button lag and security flaw.
AT&T has confirmed that rooted and bloatware removed Samsung Galaxy S II handsets won’t be upgraded to Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread OS, but the good thing is that it will not brick your rotted SGS II handset.
Download
As it is an OTA update, the owners of the AT&T branded Samsung Galaxy S II handsets should be seeing the notification alerts on their home screen asking them to accept the update and download it. If the update hasn’t yet prompted you, you can manually perform the update process by heading over to Menu –> Settings –> About Phone –> Software Update –> Check Now –> If the update available –> Accept it and follow the on-screen instructions to finish the upgrade process. After successfully finished the upgrading process, the handset’s new build number should be shown as GINGERBREAD.UCKK6.
