Ics soak test has begun!!!!!!!!

[SamuriHL]

I assume you meant JB since it's had ICS since July. And yea, who knows. It's possible. We don't really KNOW anything yet. It's all just guesswork at this point. We need to wait and see if the soak starts on Friday and what build it is. I'm just nervous, that's all.

Well, guess what? The beloved RAZR should be coming up against its end of support time as well, so hopefully they'll throw plans out the window for that device to get ICS as well.

Huh??

If the Bionic is not going to receive Jelly Bean, I see know reason why RAZR owners should be privelaged and receive it, either. Both devices should be treated equally.

Here's my take on this whole debacle...

The Bionic's a nice phone and has served me well since I purchased it in March 2012.

Either of the leaks (.246/.247) work quite well and they gave me the sense of having a new phone. So, whichever is the OTA, I can and will live with that.

If Motorola sees fit to push Jelly Bean to the Bionic in the future, that's great! If they don't, it's no great loss and so be it.

I will let the rest of my contract with Verizon play out; I can upgrade in a year or so. In the mean time, I shall study ALL phone/carrier options so as to be better prepared for my next smart phone selection.

When the time comes, I may or may not stay with Motorola. I WILL be looking for a phone that is NOT locked down and a carrier that doesn't unnecessarily load up said phone with bloat.

I have a? I have two phones under my name one mine one my wife's. If I upgrade her phone being subsidized and don't upgrade my phone do I lose unlimited as well as my wife. Or does she go tired and I keep unlimited. If that is how it works that would be great I can use her upgrade and give her my bionic.

Two separate contracts...you are not on family sharing? If you are on separate contracts and she uses a subsidized upgrade she will lose unlimited and you will keep yours. If you are on the same contract/family shared plan then you both will lose it.

There is many ways to do this but from what I understand Motorola is up in air to use 247 or 246 so with your lack of knowledge I would wait for ota. We should see this in 2 weeks or so cause soak invites went out last Thursday

Oh joys...

You misunderstand the situation. If they go with 246, we won't get JB. There is not enough time to do another update between now and March PLUS the jB build. Just not gonna happen. If we get 247, then we have a shot at JB. But only a shot. If it's delayed at ALL past March, they have to cancel it.

Is the Bionic supposed to get JB? I mean, is there a document or link that says we will? I know that the Bionic should be able to handle it and that JB might be a minor update, but should we prepare for something that was never planned to happen?

Not officially. However, there's no technical reason why we couldn't. Especially in light of the effort Moto went through to unify the ICS builds.
