Unhappy [Q] Not receiving 2.3.6 OTA update on 100% stock

Hello all. I checked and no one has posted this yet so here it is. I am 100% stock on 2.3.5. I installed it through KIES so I am sure it's full stock. And it's been quite a while and I am not receiving the 2.3.6 update OTA. I don't know why. Do I have to download something? I don't know. Please help me out and thanks very much!
Device: AT&T Skyrocket
ROM: AOKP 4.2.2

Old Devices: HTC Inspire (given away)

What happens is that samsung clntinues to pull the updates. It has beem the third time it happens. When i had my phone 100% stock i updated mine from 2.3.5
to 2.3.6 and I went online to a forum to see what had changed. Many people were complaining about it especially me. Believe me they took away stuff rather then fixing it, for example wallpaper scroll. In conclusion 2 days later people were posting" I can't get the update" "what update" it is mainly because Samsung and att pull them out. Your phones are good don't worry.

If you use the firmware upgrade and initialization option, KIES downloads and flashes stock firmware to your device.

I don't trust kies a penny...if you wanna go back to stock just download the stoch tar from sammobile.com and flash it with Odin
