New ICS Leak for Bionic

[timmy10shoes]

And try wiping dalvik cache and cache in bootstrap or safestrap

Is there an updated bootstrap for ICS?

 

[timmy10shoes]

Don't follow my lead and i don't know what everyone is talking about. But i used koush's bootstrap and nitro's with no issues.

 

[timmy10shoes]

There is safestrap 2.0 at droidhive.com

 

[SamuriHL]

I haven't personally tried it as I read people were having issues with it mounting the sdcard. (No idea if they meant int or ext on that). I read someone somewhere has an updated bootstrap but I haven't seen it.

 

[SamuriHL]

Yea, I saw new safestrap. But I always use bootstrap.

Gotta question! Is it true that once the "OFFICIAL ICS OTA" is pushed to the phone, there is no way to revert back to GB???
The reason I ask is cause I like to stream TV & Movies, and over on the RAZR side of the house, it seems they are having an issue with flash player?
So my thoughts are, to download the LEAK, since that lets me go back to GB, and not take the OTA until everything is confirmed to be working . Or, will this fxz still work on the Official OTA later?
"And" will the "LEAK" still be an option after the OTA is pushed?
I'm stock, never tried to mod before! Last resort question??? LOL ;-P. Thanks!

There seems to be some confusion on what "leak" vs "ota" means. The leaks come from the cheesecake servers. They are signed, official updates that are not meant for public consumption (hence the term leak) but are identical in nature as to what you get from an ota update. So far, with the leaks, we've been able to go back to 902 using the FXZ. Theoretically the same should be true of the OTA whenever it's released, but, there's no guarantee. There's no guarantee that the next leak we get will allow us to go back to 902, either. It's very likely though.

Just tested bootstrap and all functions work for me.

 

[SamuriHL]

Yea, just installed the eclipse one and it's working for me too. Guess I should just dive in rather than trusting what I read.

Yea I understand were the leak comes from, but where the confusion comes from is I thought once an Official OTA hit you, you were stuck on that OS. But you guys are able to go back to. 902 right now with the leak. That's why the question? Lol. Thanks

I've done the moto fastboot commands a dozen times before a few months ago. But I forgot to which state the phone has to be in when throwing moto fastboot commands at the phone. Normal phone model or do we need to boot into AP fastboot mode or does it even matter.

Well, 905 users can go back to 902 using the FXZ, so, no, that's not a hard and fast rule at all. But ICS is quite different so in the beginning no one believed you could go back to 902 (the RAZR ICS upgrade was the experience that everyone was thinking of at the time) but people were surprised that the 902 FXZ worked.

NICE! Thanks for that info

Meh, I just do a moto-fastboot reboot-bootloader as the first command.
