Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for the information!
So, it's not an official update. Just curious to know what the differences are. I'm not gonna flash again, though!

may not have any real changes or
may have various fixes to complaints/problems
unlikely but could have a unlockable bootloader or some other exploit left open

Greetings everyone.
After 44 pages of q&a i need to ask this:
Do you guys recommend jb update?
can i install custom ics roms with safestrap after jb update or i'm stuck with custom jb roms?
Thanks.

Can't really speak on behalf of the JB upgrade, it seemed a lot like the ICS upgrade, but with less blur. New kernel means faster phone, but lots of people are complaining about how the physical keyboard handles

All custom roms (with a few exceptions) are kexec based, and also all JB based. You won't be able to install ICS roms because as far as I know there isn't a kexec ICS rom

Hello everyone I am having trouble getting my droid 4 from GB 2.3.6 updated to Jelly Bean. GigaJake has helped me out considerably and the only thing I need is a SBF for JB or ICS to get the ball rolling. I have searched and can't find one anywhere. Well almost anywhere. GigaJake gave me a link to Droid-Developers SBF However I am A Marine currently deployed and on a government computer and that webpage is blocked. Can anyone help me get the file I need? I mean another link or maybe even put the file on google drive for me to get it. My email is [email protected] please help

that is a razr thread, do not use razr or any other firmware on a droid 4, you will hard brick the phone, with no hope of recovery
