Anyone get in touch with p3 to test his modified 2.3.3 update.zip?
His tweet was about 3 hours ago so I am assuming he has passed it out to a couple people now.
my thoughts is that it didn't work and now he's keeping quite but who knows
I think he's busy he isn't on Twitter all the time lol
I tweeted him back and said I would test it but did not hear back.
He's out of town so probably busy, expect to hear back when he's not busy.

Same here... It was some time later but yeah, what the guy who posted before me said....
I assumee p3s zip is pre rooted? how about for the people that went ahead and updated, any promising root methods in the works?
If you're already updated, p3 said that you can sbf back.

If anyone has actually tried this please confirm or call shenanigans, too scared to try it myself
I would assume that is not true until it's confirmed x10.

I know! Means it's time to have "software issues" due to the crappy 2.3.3 OTA and get a D3 as a warranty exchange .

Or you could just 'lose' your X2 and get one.
Just got an email, 2:48Est, for a new Soak test for the X2? What could this be?
Go for it and check it out and let us know. You can always sbf back. How do you get on their list?
nothing was on the servers thus far, btw

I signed up! I bet it is GB 2.3.5 or 2.3.6. With minor bug fixes...
Sent from my MB870 using XDA
I was thinking the same as litetaker. Moto and VZW just released some bug-fixes for the D2 and something else if I remember right. Probably the same with the X2. One thing I don't get is that they complain the LTE in the Tegra devices like the XOOM is what is holding up ICS since the WiFi version has it already. Basically the X2 is just a smaller XOOM and since it only has the CDMA portion why can't it run ICS. The Specs of my X2 are better than my Nexus S 4G and I have my ROM running 4.0.3 on that without issue. Being Tegra based they can't blame that unless there is something in the CDMA holding it up.
What rom are you running that is 4.0.3 on the x2???
Woot! Lets hope its a music fix finally... right guys? Right?
I signed up today as well... I am thinking the same thing... it has to be a bug fix update.
I can't see them getting ICS out this quickly considering it was only about a month ago when it was put on the 'might be considered list'.
Motorola might move that fast enough to get it done... but VZW is slow.
Where is people signing up at?

I never could find the sign up sheet. But then again can I run a stock rom? Lol don't think I can anymore. I will wait to see what's released and I am sure it will be on the forum soon and the developers can start using it.

They can no longer sbf??? Wtf nevermind let someone else verify the update first. I don't trust moto they spend more time and money blocking root and development than fixing their own problems.

Thanks for the heads-up, I hadn't read about this issue until seeing your post. Motorola clearly hates their customer base, viewing them as sheep to callously monetize.
I don't mean to go all Richard Stallman here, but Moto can't be trusted--they let us know that with the locked bootloader. That said, the DX2 is my last device...and NO way will I be a part of this soak test.
Again, thanks for the heads up, cheers.

I swear man I'm sorry if I came off as flaming you but those are still not proof. I got the same exact popups using the Cheesecake app as did everyone else. If you could upload a video of you going to System Settings>About Phone>System Update then have the popup come up, I'll believe you. Sorry but no I do not believe that out of everyone that owns the Maxx on this site, that you're the only one who got the OTA. Not for a second, the soak test hasn't even started yet which means Verizon hasn't even cleared the OTA yet.
The download just failed and here is the notification askimg me to install again

Dude you need to lay off. He's nice enough to report he got the update, and even nicer to say he'll upload it. Why would he lie? What would he have to gain? He doesn't have to live up to your expectations.
And by the way, you could fake the method you posted, after changing your server in Cheesecake to 100, you can get the update prompt by going in to about phone > update.
Why would he lie about it? Its a software update on a phone, not a life changing experience.

I don't have an opinion about whether he received the update, but lots of people lie all the time about anything. Also, it was April 1st. I think skepticism was justified. You're welcome to believe everything you hear.
My girlfriend got an update notification yesterday on her MAXX too, but it only took her to 2.3.6, not 4.0.*
I wouldn't be surprised if Verizon is testing with a few to see if there are issues with such a big update, but it would be known testers IMO.
Hoping its the real thing.

There are a lot of gullible people in the world.
I believe you, but if you want to make those of little faith eat some foot, (and make the rest of us super happy), drop the update.zip, it'd only take a quick adb pull , and I agree, you'll probably have to flash back to stock recovery, try using the voodoo ota root keeper to hide/recover su access and keep us updated!
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
Seems there are always one or two people that get the OTA's early when they set it up for testing. Dude, if you got it, congrats!
I'm not sure I remember seeing it mentioned in your original thread, but did you sign up on the Feedback network for the SOAK tests, or was this just "random"?
Thanks for the pics. So it did happen. But you posted incredible news on April Fools Day. What did you expect? I once told a friend of mine some really good news April Fools Day. The problem is I am a big jokester. He refused to believe me. The thing was I didn't even realize it was April Fools Day!
So I'm eating crow. Yummy, yummy.
Now I'm getting this:

That app won't run on any "leak." It only works if you are currently ON the update path. As soon as you leave the latest OTA (.181) you are technically off the update path.
As quite a few of you know, the .75 leak could fastboot back. Well the 2 latest leaks .84 and .85 absolutely CANNOT fastboot back to any previous version. Once you're on those leaks, you're on them.
There is of course speculation that once the official ICS comes out, we will all be able to get back on it and be on the proper update path. However, this is obviously just an assumption and is not 100% promised.
So let me stress again, if you install the .84 or .85 leak, you are OFF the update path for the time being.
If you DO or have already installed one of these leaks. I suggest flashing the "CWR On Boot" zip and making a nand backup. That way at least if something happens, you can restore your nand backup and be good to go.

What the op is saying is that the app won't even let you pick servers. Has nothing to do with being on the wrong version to pull an update the app never gets that far. It worked on .75 I tried it before. But on .84 it won't do ****. I agree with the op Motorola probably has found a way to block the app for now. I'm sure an updated version will come out that fixes this.

he was about as rude as one man trying to save another from jumping off a cliff.
cheesecake is an app to connect to Moto's servers to DL test builds. It's where we got the black hole known as the .84/.85 builds from. It's dangerous to your phone, your family and your right testicle.

Honestly, that is hard to tell. But usually remarks like these snow-ball into fights, spitting profanities at each other and eventually bans. It is wise to avoid writing such things.

It's an app that allows you to connect directly to the Motorola portal to download the ROMs they're working on.
Some of our forum members "Know a dude, that's playing another dude, that works with the dude at Motorola" and his getting the ROMs to us so this community can do the real work.
I assume they're much like the Apple/Foxconn employees, afraid for their lives if anything leaks and ties them back to him/her.
So we don't talk about cheesecake for that reason. They say it's because people will brick their phone and then expect help, which is true -
Idiots will "idiot" all day long. But that's their problem. Let them flash it, break it and get stuck for good. They won't do it anymore. I can promise you that.

Lol I know what the OP is saying. I also know what I'm saying.
On the .75 leak it wouldn't work either. Fastbooted back to .173 and it worked. You have to be on the update path in order for it to work. I've messed around with it enough.
