Looks like a for-realz this time.

**eze036** · 04-26-2012, 08:41 AM

hopefully i get in

**broncop3t3** · 04-26-2012, 09:28 AM

I wonder how long it'll take to find out if we're in or not?

**Jaggrey** · 04-26-2012, 09:36 AM

I'm trying to register for the Moto Feedback Network thing but I never get any emails from them verifying my account or the forgot password link. O well.

**Derek_B** · 04-26-2012, 02:54 PM

I signed up a while back, do I need to sign up again for this round of testing?

**srkelley** · 04-26-2012, 05:20 PM

I'd love to test this. I'm hoping that it's ICS with their updated webtop and maybe something else special.

Probably not, but to be safe you might want to go into your control panel on their forums and make sure that your device info is still in there, and that you have selected that you are willing to participate. A little while back they upgraded their forum software and I know that I had to go back in and re-register for the Feedback Network.

It took just over an hour for me to get a verification email.

Updates beware!!! It is confirmed, installing 2.3.5 locks down the bootloader. This means no custom ROMs, kernels, etc.

Read up over at XDA.........

So, for those of us who don't do custom ROMs or anything, what is changed in this version?

**FernBch** · 04-29-2012, 08:17 AM

It addressed some issues people were reporting. I know some had problems staying connected to 802.n routers, but I don't know all the other issues. It's a maintenance release (GB) only, not ICS.

Funny to have a maintenance release almost a year after releasing the phone. But it is too early for it to be ICS, so what else could it be?

**tirith** · 05-05-2012, 07:02 PM

Its supposed to be confidential

who says its too early for ics? that's summer schedule, right?

I got an email from the Moto Feedback Network this morning regarding the Soak Test. I had to take a short survey via Survey Monkey to determine if I will be included. The survey said it will close tomorrow and the first 1000 qualified participants will be chosen. Cant Wait!!

This is the boat I'm in too. It will be an interesting experience if we're picked. Good luck everyone who wants to participate!

**Jaggrey** · 05-07-2012, 09:29 AM

And Q3 would be July - September. It'd be nice if it came out earlier tho

**tirith** · 05-07-2012, 05:46 PM

Read a bunch of articles earlier, they said between q2 and q3 motorola would be rolling the updates out.

I would like to qualify for the SOAK test

**Puzzlegal** · 05-11-2012, 02:13 PM

Over on xda they are saying this is a test of a minor update, and it will re-lock the bootloader.

So if you accept this update, you are intrinsically trusting moto to give you ics, our you don't care.

**Wayne173** · 05-11-2012, 05:29 PM

So is it a permanent lock. Or will xda or someone esle figure put how to unlock if ICS doesn't come to the Photon.

**jordo487** · 05-11-2012, 09:27 PM

Has anyone heard anything yet? This went quiet really quick after the announcement.

**Mes3** · 05-12-2012, 04:01 AM

They sent out the emails for the test last Sunday. Haven't heard anything since.

Until there is an unlock or exploit found it is a permanent lock.

I have read a few posts on other forums in the last couple days saying that the atrix can be added to the "can't unlock after update" list. Right along side the photon and electrify users who took the update.
