The bionic has a titanium nitrided pot metal bezel. Reason the penny trick works.

Intriguing what penny trick. Ha asked before you edited. Lol

 

[Cpt_S]

because its needless plastic bezel, pointless.

sigh. says you.

You can use a penny to scratch the verizon logo off the front of your phone and it won't scratch the bezel, copper and zinc are about a 10th as hard as the Ti nitride.

Ah, pot metal!

Ah, pot metal!

Motorcycle lever crap, an alloy of whatever's in the pot.

Maybe we'll get lucky and the soak test for the Atrix 2 will fail. Then they can slip us into their position

I'm personally not into the whole "wishing ill will on others" thing, just for my own benefit. I hope it passes, and they enjoy the OTA. We're next in line, we pretty much KNOW it's going to be .246, and we have ways to install .246 if we want it. We've had our leaked builds for at least a month longer than they have, so let's hope their OTA goes smooth. Let's not jinx ours.

 

[Dave12308]

Did .246 have a zip file that could be flashed via stock recovery without using HoB?

Yes, as long as you are on .905 - the main point of HoB is to fool your phone into thinking it's on .905 so the .zip will install.

 

[Dave12308]

Yes, but it's not openly mentioned here you can Google it and find it. That's how I did mine since I waiting until the end.

If you download the .246 support files for HoB, they come with the OTA .zip

 

[Dave12308]

Usually when the update starts to push out like this - that someone almost ALWAYS grabs that update file and posts it where everyone can get it themselves. So, if you're vigilant and keep checking this forum, or your favorite Android news site, you'll get it the first day! With rare exceptions I have always grabbed it myself and installed it before waiting for the update notice to hit my phone naturally

And i'll bet MONEY that when someone does grab it OTA and we check the MD5 sum, it will be EXACTLY what we already have. 6.7.246 is 6.7.246; there is no distictions between a leak and an official OTA aside from Verizon's approval.

I gotta say, if anyone is considering if they should go to 246, I ABSOLUTELY recommend doing it. I used HoB last week and have never enjoyed a phone as much as my Bionic with ICS. I even let a coworker with a Bionic play with it and he had me use HoB on his too. It's ridiculously easy. Hats off to Sam.

Remember all the idiots saying "905 leak and 905 OTA are slightly different but the md5 is the same"? People, what do you do with em?

The thing I love most about Bionic are the fact that most of these threads read like something out of a Monty Python movie
