Re: December 24 Update?

So, this side loading deal; Is it reversible? I would like to try an actual update of JB, not just a ROM, but would like to maybe go back to ICS just in case.
 
Re: December 24 Update?

I have read that there is currently no way to get back to .211 (ICS) after making the jump to 98.72.8 (JB). There's a good dev community for this phone though, so I'm sure something will pop-up eventually.
 
I pulled the update from online, put it to the SD card and had zero problems. Love the new notification pull down and Google Now.

On version 6.16.215.XT912 - I've downloaded the Blur_Version.6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip and placed on SD - can I install this update? - Never mind, Using Matt's utility, I went back to 211 and manually installed, real nice JB now...

Smooth as butter folks. No complaints. Stock keyboard has been improved as well.

Yes, very smooth and fluid from screen to screen. Only one minor complaint so far. The "Sticky Notes" widget is gone from this update. Not a big deal but I did enjoy its convenience for quick note taking and reminders. I'm sure there are many replacements in the Play Store but that's not really the point. I was using it and now I can't. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with Jelly Bean.
 
Re: December 24 Update?

Is the UI still five screens or has it switched to the RAZR M, HD and MAXX HD UI, where you swipe to the left from home for quick settings and all your homescreens are to the right of main?

It is still five screens.
 
How is signal quality? On ics mine has been somewhat unstable.

Had to revert back to 4.04 stock (I used the Droid Razr Utility 1.82), then sideload the upgrade. Once done, smooth as butter... Loving JB on this phone now. I actually like it now. I liked it with gingerbread. I felt the ICS upgrade wasn't that great. Phone felt slugish.
 
I got the JB update yesterday. Accidentally downloaded and installed without thinking. Looks a lot like Windows mobile, which I despise, and causing me some annoying, albeit minor, issues. Here's a list so far:

-Separated my joined contacts.
- Isn't syncing FB properly with my contacts.
- Contact pics are all pixilated and blurry.
- Text message occasionally won't show 'Compose Here' box.
- Wifi disconnects, turns off, and turns back on randomly.
-Favorite Contacts widget is completely borked.
- Lots of presets for app usage (especially using Gmail instead of native email app) have been erased.

That's what I've got so far. Going to clear cache and see it that helps at all. Will report back.

Smooth transitions
Fast and more responsive
New gallery is awesome
Google now and new voice search are great
