Why is the MoPho getting no love from Devs at all!? There like 2-3 people actively developing for us...and I completely appreciate their efforts. The Bionic already has more Roms and what not...its crazy...The MoPho is an awesome high end phone with virtually identical specs (besides 1080p video capture)as the Bionic yet I hardly ever hear anything about it...Hhhhh ok I'm done venting. Thank you.

Part of the popularity is because of the Droid name and the fact that Verizon markets more. I know I have seen a ton of commercials about the Bionic but maybe only one or two about the Photon.
Sprint seems to be spending money on marketing the Epic Touch.
But yea....it is annoying.
Ya, I definitely understand the popularity of the Droid name...I came from the OG Droid and have friends with various Droid devices...But I really think the main factor is the network...theres nothing wrong with Sprint...but regardless of all that, the specs speak for themselves...This phone is awesome...I think I've noticed the lack of attention so much cause there's countless ROMS and Kernels and Dev support for the OG Droid...all I can do is wait I suppose..

The main thing with the Photon is it is geared towards business more. The Bionic is more pronounced as a game/every day device. I love the Photon and it is certainly lives up to my expectations, but I am waiting for the quad cores to hit next spring and then I'll move towards that. But with the better build Q of Moto devices I may never go back to Samsung again.

Coming from a e3d there is nothing but crickets in here, Keeping fingers crossed and hope for some more development in the Photon section. In the end though very happy with the purchase, phone is very fast, and everything is working that I need to work.
Mostly because marketing for this phone has been abysmal. That and the fact that it's a /world/ phone only sold in the /USA/.
DERP.
If this was launched internationally I'm wiling to bet we'd be up to our necks in activity in the photon section.
I'm not too worried tho', this phone is great straight out of the box. Only thing that I'd like to have as an option is CM7
There isn't much development work, cause this phone kicks ass with no root... Kinda hard to improve on perfection...
Pew! Pew! Pew! From my Mo-Pho!

I would have to agree with this. I can't say that I'm coming from a cell phone world though. The Photon is my first cell phone ever. I have a lot of experience with tech and a lot of my friends were supprised that this was my frist cell (they all thought I had, had one for years) but I did do a lot of research before my decision. I knew about the 3D, The Bionic and Galaxy SII, heck even the iPhone 5 (I have an iPod Touch and like it but I love widgets and being able to make something my own).
The Photon was the phone for me out of them all. HTC like Motorola usually has great software support but Photon was a world phone and I do travel from time to time. Samsung has a bad rep for software support. Google had just bought Motorola. iPhone is a neat mp3/game player but I want a phone too.

You must be new to XDA. There is always something that can be done. Overclock, underclock, undervolt, tether, full Ubuntu in webtop, cyanogenmod, miui, themes, porting from other phones, I think you get my picture

Yeah there is a lot of stuff that can be done. I haven't really messed with the webtop though.
Agreed....
I think it's just lack of advertisement. I'm from Russia but I sitiing in American segment of internet and I never saw any Photon adv or posts about it, but endless river of samsung or htc crap.
Also I guess I was just spoiled with evo development. Wish I were younger and had the time I would try to develop. I think I am going into flash withdrawal lol.

this.
I would love to dig around and learn but I have 5 kids at home and that allows very little time..
For me, I'm totally diggin' the phone the way it is.. stock/rooted. I don't feel anything 'needs' improved.. I mean sure, things can always be tweaked for the sake of tweaking (undervolt, overclock, etc.) but for me, there really aren't any other necessities besides CM7 and that's in the works.. so, for me, I'm good.
If I felt the phone was lacking somewhere, I'd certainly feel motivated to learn about ROM building etc.. but I could care less.. hehehe..
Again, I'm patiently awaiting CM7.. other than that, this device is bad ass !!
Im still loving the stock rom, I would love to make some roms/themes anything like that as well, but I only know a half-assed ammount about that stuff, and Im guessing everyone doesnt want a half-assed rom
I CAN however offer hosting to any of the MoPho Devs I have unlimited bandwidth and space on my server
Shabby. can you point me to a good starting point on making a ROM. have no problem trying just don't know where to start. had evo before this and there were so many roms there was no point in trying.

Hey everybody, im new to this forum i watched the video and its awesome great job
anyway im going to get a razr anytime now, its going to be my first android device(switching from iOS). my question is kinda in the title will i be able to get the plain, stock ICS without Motos skin over it? im thinking about a custom ROM or something(ive got no experience whatsoever regarding this topic) because Moto probably wont provide something like this. Plus i want the 2 apps smart actions and motocast. Will this be possible? i know that probably no one knows this as ICS is not released yet but maybe its been done before on previous versions and with other manufacturers skins?
Sorry if this is the wrong section but i thought id would be better to specify on a device section not the general q&a....

First, WELCOME TO THE LIGHT SIDE!
ROMs are amazing beasts, my friend. I feel that the official MOTO version of ICS will not be Vanilla, but there absolutely will be Vanilla ROMs available after (maybe before) it's release.
In my experience, with enough tweaking, you won't need to root (unless you plan on using root only apps). I haven't, and won't root this bad @ss mamajama after covering up Blur with Launcher Pro, and setting up my icon packs, widgets and whatnot.
Really it all depends on what you want to do/use. There will be many (maybe too many) options coming soon. Just a tip (from a recovering flashaholic), if you DO root, and flash a port ROM, be prepared for things not to work properly at first (if at all).
I don't think a vanilla ROM with Motorola apps will be available, but really, anything is possible, and if what you want isn't available, you can cook it up yourself!
Gotta love Android!
Edit: Almost forgot! If you DO switch, order your phone through Amazon (by the 28th)! They're selling it for $0. 01! I did, and got mine the next day at no extra charge.

It's for new accounts and new lines only, though, just FYI. The only condition is that you stay current on your bill for 6 months. Even if you don't, they charge $250, which is less than retail (with a 2 yr agreement).

If you're going to be using this phone on a Verizon contract, it is most certainly worth it. $0.01 is far better than $299; you'll have an ETF no matter what if you cancel early. With Amazon, it's an additional $250 ETF if you cancel within the first six months. If you don't, there's no extra charge.
dont make you purchase on if you will be able to put stock ics on it, even with custom rom. Buy it for what it is. No one knows and no one will until it is out.
Pretty sure it's been confirmed a billion times that RAZR will get ICS... xD
yes i know its confirmed, but from motorolas side, meaning all with motoblur and all that stuff, just asking if there will be an unofficial version without motoblur. but well have to wait and see.

yea im going to do the same thing once my phone comes in. i just signed up for sprint today and my phone should arrive by saturday. last motorola android i owned was the cliq and it took them well over a year with the same promise to bring 2.0 or 2.1 to that phone from 1.5 after several delays. cyanogenmod had a stable release for that phone several months before the official update came out. by then i didnt even have the phone anymore lol switched to the mytouch3g slide.
By the time ICS is released in Q3......Jelly Bean should be out in the alpha stage
...just saying...
Maybe it will get here a bit sooner. At least this newer info will get rid of all the many posts about "Will Photon get ICS?". Very annoying. I never doubted for a second the Photon wouldn't get ICS. Google wants this on all devices capable of running it and have said so from the beginning. ICS is just slow rolling out it seems.
Anyways, for those of us that need full functionality CM9 isn't an option yet. One of the great things about the Photon is HDMI out and Webtop feature. I am not willing to lose those and as I understand there is no way to activate Webtop on CM9 yet. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. However, 4g I can live without (not in my area) and having the camera working now is a great step to final.

Ok, let me clarify. We all know Al will never be president, therefore, I believe although announced, Moto will pull the plug at some point before Q3.
Next, the AT&T note has GB, the Sprint Note, expected this summer, is expected (again expected!) to have ICS more over to top AT&T!

Sure, just like I got WiMAX 4G! Lets be honest, who here keeps a phone more than a year? If they pushed this to Q2 maybe, but for us to wait with all the new hardware coming out WITH ICS, I'm surprised Moto made the announcment, they could have saved the development work, but we will see I'm sure. And even with me getting the Note, I'm not getting rid of the Photon anytime soon. like 2013 Q2 if my income tax is late, haha!
As bad as the SGS2 is on Sprint, you better take a long look at the Note before you jump on it. Ill never own another Samsung device. They have officially lost me at this point. Im waiting for HTCs next big thing. They seem to be the best of the bunch from what we have to chose from.

I do.
It is a business phone so it is up to Sprint on when they will allow us an upgrade. If they are now on a 2-year upgrade plan for even businesses than I will for sure have the Photon for over a year. We can't afford to keep upgrading otherwise.
Also, wasn't it you who was just complaining in another thread about not having WiMax and "what if I want to keep my Photon for 10 years?" point? If you don't keep a phone for more than a year why was that even a valid point on your end?
Not trying to be harsh with these questions, just observations and curiousity mainly.

Most of the other regions have the RAZR offered through multiple carriers, meaning it's less a specific carrier's 'fault'.
Why do we need official ICS when we have great working ICS builds already? Its not as though it's going to unlock the bootloaders.

An official ICS kernel with working hardware acceleration would be nice, for one. As would less brutally short battery life.

ummm? Our bootloader is locked because of sh*tty moto, so what we really need is an updated kernel that doesn't suck so much, including updated drivers, hardware acceleration, and a ROM that doesn't have major bugs like the front facing camera actually working.
If ICS doesn't come out by the 1st of May then I'm dropping this phone for something else. I can see now why so many people hate Motorola. The going price on eBay is pretty high for the maxx, so it'll be worth it from my point of view considering I got the 2 year discounted price of $250 an they're currently selling at $500+

Nothing works better than an OTA from a manufacturer. NOTHING. You can port all you want, but nothing will work 100% unless the manufacturers release an official OTA. Believe me, I know. As a recovering Flashaholic. My RAZR is stock, outta the box, but the PROMISE that was made by Motorola was that we would be the first to receive the ICS update, and obviously that's been broken...

Okay well coming from the Droid Incredible, where the bootloader wasn't locked down and developers could easily update kernels and radio's, I highly disagree. Stock ROM was laggy and the kernel from the OTA was poorly updated with old drivers. With it unlocked, developers were able to constantly add the latest and fastest drivers, latest linux codes, optimizing performance and battery life, and adding a few amazing features such as call recording and various governors.
So what I'm getting at is the bootloader being locked IS a big deal for performance, battery life and features for your phone.
But ya I'm not expecting the bootloader to be unlocked with ICS (is anyone expecting that?) but the update will mean that moto will be updating their kernel and add things to the phone that developers otherwise can't do because of the bootloader being locked, and that's that part that gets everyone annoyed, and of course it gets even worse then they push back that update without even an estimate on when it will be done.

The update will come also for the CDMA phones and for you people I sure hope in Q2. But even knowing the fact that I am owning a GSM phone I would rater wait a few months and have an os that is perfect and mostly bugfree. Seems more important to me than that they rush it and give us an os with bugs they could have taken out just by waiting a few weeks/months.
Just a thought.
its painful as hell, but i lol'd.
Thought I might share this.
" Thank you for your interest in Motorola products. I am responding to the complaint that you filed with Better Business Bureau regarding the Motorola RAZR and Ice Cream Sandwich.
We are planning to upgrade DROID RAZR to ICS during the first half of 2012, and will provide more precise guidance within 6 weeks post public push of Ice Cream Sandwich by Google. We are all looking forward to ICs upgrade but to date the upgrade is in evaluation and planning phase.

I really like the phone and the gal I got it from on ebay kept it perfect. So I will put my Epic 4g away in it's box for the time being (heck it's only 2 weeks old ) . It has ICS on it and I like it but if it's gonna be really hard to get that on the Photon no big deal. I am at least going to see if It's possible to remove the sprint bloatware though.

It has ICS on it and I like it but if it's gonna be really hard to get that on the Photon no big deal. I am at least going to see if It's possible to remove the sprint bloatware though.
