Ice cream sandwhich for droid 3???

[singhshsr]

Hey guys,
I am prettty sure everybody wants to know when ice cream sandwich (andriod 4.0) will come to the droid 3, can anyone find some information on it(date and if it will acually release for the droid 3). Is there also another way to download the update? If we rooted our Droid 3 will the update mess up our phone?

According to this...

http://androidandme.com/2011/11/new...4-0-source-code-to-be-released-on-november-17

...Google will release the source code for Android 4.0 on November 17th. Motorola said that it will release a timeline for Android 4.0 updates on it devices 6 weeks after this, which is December 29th, thus we'll have to wait until December 29th to find out or root our phones and get it earlier.

Speak of the devil, Google jumped the gun and released the source code for Android 4.0 today...

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Honeycomb-and-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-source-code-released-early_id23768

...which means that root users should have an ICS ROM very shortly. It also means that Google must be announcing/launching Google Music Store or the Galaxy Nexus on the 17th.

I would suggest you follow Hascode:

Hash of Codes

This guy is one of the major players in D3 development. Just one request, please don't ask him for times, deadlines, or dates. When it is ready, the whole world will know about it.

Saw the video in Hashcode's post. It looks extremely buggy. What's the usual "fix-it" time to iron out all of the imperfections?

 

[singhshsr]

he said he would try to fix it with some updates. i hope that comes soon.
i tried it and it worked well for the a protype version.

****Remember if you try this no one but you is responsible for any dead screans and what not*****

 

[Glen4X4]

That looks great, will be standing by for the bugs to be worked out. Too impatient to deal with those pop ups constantly...

 

[SellnCLT85]

I look forward to seeing ICS on the D3. I do
hope we continue the dev support post D4.

any clue when the official update will be out on Verizon?

Nobody knows. First, Motorola has not confirmed that the D3 will get ICS. Second, they put out a post a few weeks ago that showed that it takes months to go through development, testing, carrier testing, etc., before it's ready.

So, the answer is that nobody will know if and when ICS comes from Verizon until maybe a week or two before VZW is ready to send out the update. And, if it will happen at all, it's most likely to happen after the first quarter of 2012.

Look on Hashcode's blog page for latest updates on his alpha ICS mod and the tools needed to use it and what doesn't work. It's coming along great.

there is a ics ROM out but the camera does not work, I have been using it and absolutely love it, make sure you have a rooted phone. Hash Code also said lastnight he is very close to fixing the camera issue
