DROID BIONIC Jelly Bean Update

We should be on deck as it were. But as stated, we're flying blind.

I sure hope it works out that way. Its killing me not knowing what's happening. We could get that figurative 3 a.m. knock at the door to tell us our Bionic's not going to make it...

I just won't answer the door!:D

Btw what site do you guys use for your info. I'm a droid-life.com fan myself.

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

Discussing where info is coming from is what got the Jelly Bean news shut down.

You need to keep up on the conversation. Go back and read and you will find out what happened. One thing though - we all need to thank SamuriH for taking us as far as he could on the subject.
I have been keeping up with the conversation and last I read it would be weeks until the latest build *may* get approved.
 
Let me catch you up. Sam kept giving us info on the JB build. Last we knew, Verizon kept denying build after build. Moto is going to try one more build, and if that doesn't work, then they may pull the plug. Then, Sam's source got leaked by someone, and so Moto closed that leak up, and we are now in the dark. So, the latest info is that the latest Bionic build just started testing a few days ago. It will take between 4-6 weeks for it to finish testing and get to us, probably in a soak test first. We will probably not get any more info on the build until it comes out, if it comes out. To stay sane in the darkness we've strayed into talking about other stuff. If you want a new JB thread that stays strictly to that topic, then you can start a new thread. But, until now we've all been happy with this one.

Thanks for catching me up but I have been reading all along so I am aware it will be several more weeks. I respectfully differ with you about this post however. The title is "JB update" and in the interim if everyone wants a filler then it is you who should start a new topic. Not have misc conversations in this topic.

Don't be a tool.

Then I guess I should just stop posting in this thread. Then you can keep posting unanswered questions about the bionic jb release.

No one has asked you not to post about the Bionic JB release, but of course that is your option if you so please. All I was saying is that there is a TON on non Bionic JB related posts which do not belong in this topic.
 
I guess we're just having some light conversation in the between of sharing JB information. I have yet to see one thread that hasn't strayed a bit from topic. Just my 2 cents.

What I hope happens in a Verizon exec office in the near future:

Moto Exec: Here's our latest build for the Bionic. It's better than the RAZR and the D4 builds, we've tested the crap out of it, and really there is nothing more we can do.

Verizon Exec: We are so indebted to you for all the work you've done. You are right, we should have given this hardware more love. Please release it as fast as possible. And as a token of our appreciation, we'll unlock all Moto phones from here on out.

What the worst case scenario might be:

Moto Exec: Here's our latest build for the Bionic. It's better than the RAZR and the D4 builds, we've tested the crap out of it, and really there is nothing more we can do.

Verizon Exec: What's a Bionic? You silly, silly boy. Now get out before I sick the sharks with lasers on you.

What probably will happen:

Moto Exec: Here's our latest build for the Bionic. It's better than the RAZR and the D4 builds, we've tested the crap out of it, and really there is nothing more we can do.

Verizon Exec: Oh, thank you. Of course, we need to run it through our extensive exams. Now first, please drop your pants and walk on over to they guy with the gloves.

Moto Exec: Wait, what? I'm not even supposed to be here... Bill on the fourth floor called in sick, and so I had to take his place...

Verizon Exec: Shh, shh, it'll all be okay, now spread 'em.

*Meanwhile at Motorola*

Bill: And then I told him, "You're going to have to go, I think I have pink eye. HA HA HA HA!"

Other Moto Execs: HA HA HA HA HA HA
 
Android Community is reporting that 4.1 was approved, but their source blog mentions nothing about it being approved. Some great blog journalism there.
Motorola Droid Bionic Android 4.1 update coming soon? | Android Community

Interesting post. Is the upgrade page mentioned the public page? I just checked that and it doesn't look any different (still committed to getting JB on the Bionic, but no dates). Or is the source that got leaked? I'd like to see more before I start jumping up and down for joy....

The more I look at the Android Community post and the Gottabemobile post, the more I think that they're just rehashing stuff we already know. Basically: Moto is committed to upgrading the Bionic; every other phone or device they were committed to upgrading is done or just about done; therefore we must be next and soon.

That's some pretty thin reasoning, if you ask me.
(Happy to be proven wrong, however! :D)

I think they got their wires crossed and mixed up the D4 and the Bionic. The post is very confusingly written anyways...
 
I like seeing people post for the first time (according to what the count says). It makes me like this site even more.

Long time lurker. :p

This is what happened and what I was trying to point out in my original post. Basically they read the gottabemobile post and read that the D4 was getting Jelly Bean, and then thought it said Bionic and reported the Bionic JB was approved when it hasn't.

I have Google Email alerts so I was super stoked, and then read their source and their source said nothing on the matter.

I'm guessing my sarcasm on my original post didn't come through correctly.
