DROID BIONIC Jelly Bean Update

[effreyj]

You guys need to post the full error.

Nevermind, I redownloaded it and now it's working this time. Must have gotten corrupted during the download.

Not even Wolverine from Swordfish could hack that, haha!

maybe if he was getting a bj while he was cracking it

As Ry said, here we go. Grabbed Sam's file, verified SU binary up to date. Installing now....


So far so good, no errors...

Edit 2:30 pm. Just finished and restarting...

I'm just guessing, but I think Ry said that because of all the questions that will be directed at Sam. 75% of which have already been answered.

I think it says "Install update from sd card" once you select that, find your file and select it.....

Is anybody else's taking a long time to boot up after doing the update? Mine has been in bootloop for about 20 minutes now...

Are you on the screen with Android maintenance and a progress bar? On my install the progress bar did move, but it was a little slow.

No, just in bootloop after installing the update from recovery mode successfully. Does the Android maintenance happen after it boots up again?

I just ran through HoB and preserved all data. Re-rooted and re-enabled Voodoo OTA. Manual update is now underway without the status 7 error.

Updating BP...
Updating LTE...

(fingers crossed)

Went smoothly. Some apps updated. Was prompted to update "Google Search" and that worked fine. No update from "Google Now".

WifiTether seems to work after the upgrade (I maintained root with Voodoo).

I second that. All is well, root intact. Thank you Sam. :beer:

IIRC, yes. And none of my boot sequences took an inordinate amount of time.

I was told that my device wasn't compatible with the Google search update.

Fortunately I was able to interpret these feelings correctly: loss of essence.

Interestingly enough, the speaker seems louder and more clearer now.

How's Google Now? Someone said they were having issues with updating the app with messages saying device not compatible.

That was me. Google Now works fine. What I was talking about is that it prompted me to update the GOOGLE SEARCH app to the latest version. THAT is what was coming up in the Play Store as not compatible with my Bionic.

according to voodoo it maintained root. However it did not.

Re: DROID BIONIC Jelly Bean Update (no high pitched noise in earbuds!)

When the BIONIC was first released there was a high-pitched noise when using earbuds. Some people were sensitive to it, others were not. Moto actually patched it in a Gingerbread release. However, when ICS came out the noise returned and was not patched-out again.

This Jelly Bean update seems to have removed the high pitched whine. I no longer have to use an in-line attenuator to filter the noise. Fantastic!
