No, you can root ICS directly. But to install ICS you should completely on stock.

Thanks! Awesome work
Awesome work. But I had to do a factory reset after the OTA to ICS. ADB won't detect the phone otherwise - even with new drivers and countless reboots. I suggest you can add that to the standard steps after an OTA upgrade - I came across other users who faced the same thing.

I installed the drivers and it updated the current drivers to new version. Is it okay or should i completely install again? And u didn't mention whether i should keep it in mass storage or what. And usb debugging should be on right?

Hi, I couldn't find this anywhere. The ICS root file doesn't contain an unroot.bat. How would I unroot if I wanted to?
Thanks!
Thanks!
I keep getting an error saying adb.exe is not a recognized command blah blah...
Am I missing something simple here or what?

I join the request, I do not see for unroot ICS
by the way I've done root, but comes in red, is this normal?
-rwsr-xr-x root root /system/bin/su
I correct: you have to update the binary to solve that.

I don't think so.
By the way guys... Like those who already have ICS Official OTA, yes, i got the same issue with ADB. I can root my phone so far as well.

I was rooted on 2.3.6 and after the ICS OTA I lost root but still have Superuser installed. Is it ok to re-root over existing Superuser? Also what should be the USB connection type? Mass storage? Media Device (MTP)? Camera? Charge Only does not exist on ICS anymore.
Thanks

Thanks

I was in the same situation and I just rerooted the phone and it works fine. I had mine in media device and that seemed to do the trick.
As far as unroot goes, if it helps you have the option for temporary unroot in the su app
Just successfully re-rooted OTA ICS over existing Superuser. USB debugging on and connected as Media Device.

193This is a method to root Atrix 2 running on Android GB(2.3.6) / ICS(4.0.4).
EDIT: Last updated on 26th July 2012
WHAT WORKS: Everything including the setting inside superuser which was not working in superuser 3.1
If you use this MOD, then please click on thanks button below.
I have updated this method to latest version of superuser 3.1.3 and su binary 3.1.1 for better compatibility with various Apps.
By following the below instructions you will be rooted in no time. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Features added in superuser 3.1.3:
1.Temp unroot
2. Ota survival
3. Outdated binary Notification
Method:
1. Enable "USB debugging" in your phone settings
2. Download the attachment Named "Motofail Root (superuser 3.1.3, su binary 3.1.1).zip" to root Android GB(2.3.6)
or Attachment named "ICS_root(superuser 3.1.3 and su binary 3.1.1) .zip" to root Android ICS (4.0.4).
3. Uninstall your old Motorola drivers from PC and install these new drivers.
4. Connect your phone with original USB cable that came with your phone.
5. To root Android GB(2.3.6) click on "Click-To-Root.bat" in the attachment folder or
To root Android ICS(4.0.4) click on "Root.bat" in the attachment folder
6.Your phone will reboot 2-3 times don't remove the USB cable during this process
NOTE: If you are unable to Root even after following the above MOD then perform a Factory restore after OTA update and retry.522Please be aware that other A2 users have had issues with Superuser versions higher than 3.0.3.
