Bionic ICS Q4?

[JesusG90]

Well, looks like they pulled the ol' Texas switch and just quietly updated their update page from "Early Q3" to Q4. Great job, Motorola!

I got my Bionic a week ago because I dropped my Thunderbolt in the crapper. I must say even without ICS it has been a wonderful phone to me. I didn't realize how BAD the Thunderbolt really was until I got my Bionic.

The what things have been going, it looks we can pretty much assume ICS will NOT happen in Q4.

At least we have an official update news from Motorola.

I couldn't wait any longer, and did the ICS .232 leak. It's not perfect but it's way better than GB.

I am much happier with my Bionic now.

Vzw is responsible for this. They truly suck.

Freakin jerks! I don't think I'll ever get another Motorola phone. Year after year, nothing but lies and screw up's.

Moto isn't the problem. VZW is. On all makes of phones. They delay the updates for everyone. Look at the Nexus...that just now got JB this week. On all other carriers it was done in like July I believe. The VZW S3 will be the LAST S3 to get JB, as well. VZW is ridiculous with their update approval process. Horribly so. To the point where I'm seriously contemplating bailing on VZW even with my unlimited plan.

Ok so with the news that we just got. I am going to try and put one of the leaked ICS's on my phone, I just don't know where to get any of the leaks and put it on my Bionic any help would be great!

Today was the last straw. I liked my Bionic, but am fed up with constantly being strung along. So I called Verizon to vent, and they just let me upgrade to a Razor MAXX today even though I wasn't due for an upgrade for several more months. I had to pay $199 to upgrade, but I'm getting a phone with ICS and a 3300mAh battery which is twice the size of the Bionic's. And hopefully I won't have anymore data drop issues with the Razor MAXX. Judging by the reviews, it's a well made phone and customers seem to be very happy with it, including a couple of my co-workers who own the MAXX. I also checked EBay, and it seems like used Bionics like mine are selling for around $150, so I'm going to list mine and get back most of what I just spent to upgrade.

See ya!

I used this guide for the .232 leak, which can still go back to OTA Path:

[GUIDE] Easiest Step-By-Step Tutorial For Upgrading Your Bionic To ICS - xda-developers

It was easy to follow and took about 30 minutes.

Week 1 Bionic owner here. Never swapped out for any issues.

More of a glass half-full guy.

Update, schmupdate! The Bionic doesnt need it! IMHO the phone is great the way it is...How much do people want their phone to do? It IS a phone, after all, not a computer! I'm not sure what people want from their phone, but my Bionic exceeds all my expectations, and then some.
P.S. beware of the naked man who offers you his shirt!

I take it you haven't seen ics run on a bionic yet? Lol. If you think the bionic exceeds your expectations on gb... Just wait. Ics is coming soon... Hopefully in the next week or two if vzw gets out of the way and let's them put it out. Those of us who've been running it all summer would never go back. It's like a whole new phone. Imo it's the best the bionic has ever run and brings the phone to its fullest potential.

I'm going to wait for the OTA, because I'm like that. But, with ICS can you tell it using the dual cores now?

I will be purchasing Samsung phones going forward after this nightmare...
