Hopefully this is the one for ICS update!!
It is called 2012 Q1 Update.
Seems to be the case!

Whoever wrote it is speculating off of our speculation at droidrzr.com
I'm really thinking this will be 6.12.173 or something similar. Vivo users are getting a soak test of an update to make their cellular performance better, which 6.12.173 does by updating the radio.
is there a link to enroll in the tests?

I believe Moto was telling people at CES that ICS would come sometime in Q2 of this year. Which would make sense. After Gingerbread was announced in Nov of 2010, the 1st Moto phone to receive it was the Droid X. I was a part of the soak test group. About a week after soak test, it was pushed out to all devices. That was in May of last year, Q2. So don't hold your breath for ICS just yet.

Well, based on soak test schedules before, I'd assume it'd be a little less then a week before we find out for sure.
BUT seeing that ICS is leaked in EU as of now, I'm pretty sure it might actually be ICS
One thing about finding unsupported builds is they may not actually happen. Plus, from what I saw of 173, those are advancements that can be shoved into ICS

Hi, Motorola Xoom Wi Fi is now currently updating OTA to ICS, with 3g/4g models to follow shortly. Looks hopeful for Razr. Wonder when though.

Because the xoom used stock android version. There's no motorola UI

Just be patient Google own Motorola the ICS update will be soon judging by within one month its already updated from android 2.3 to 2.6
One of my other phones is a Lg Optimus Black and after 6 months of lateness and waiting its finally got android 2.3 this week (LG suck for updates) to make things really funny its also getting ICS but that will probably be 2014 at earliest

Do You Think The Droid X2 Will Receive Official Android 4.0 Update?
While there is obviously no official information on this I'm confident we will receive the update this summer.
Based on the fact that they haven't even said the Droid 3 is getting it, I'm leaning toward no.

I have a strong inkling that we wont see it. According to what Moto said, we should get it, but that wouldn't be the first time Moto wasn't honest (bootloaders).

I'm guessing yes, we're all waiting for 2.3.5 officially and not that non-finished leak. Maybe they skipped that and are going to 4.0.1.

Here is what Motorola is saying right now concerning ICS:
A note about Ice Cream Sandwich:
We are planning to upgrade DROID RAZR™ by Motorola, Motorola RAZR™, Motorola XOOM™ and DROID BIONIC™ by Motorola to Ice Cream Sandwich. We will provide more precise guidance on timing after post-public push of Ice Cream Sandwich by Google, as well as any possible additions to this list of devices.

Considering it's been officially released by Google, isn't it time for Motorola to get on the ball? I guess we could see it, but the real question is, will we see it?
You can keep up-to-date on this information at the Motorola Android Software Upgrade site at https://forums.motorola.com/pages/00add97d6c
motorola is saying to twitter followers that their software update page is in the process of being updated. And come to think of it, apart from Razr, Bionic nothing is confirmed. However, if you take a look at the remaining phones motorola has, for verizon the D3 and X2 are the two top dogs from the rest of the phones. AT&T has atrix 4g...
And if they ask users to be patient and wait for an update on the website, chances are they are saying so to keep them excited. And they probably wouldn't raise the hopes of people like that whose phone isn't going to be updated. So, we may see updates to more phones. And if they are gonna update more phones they can not leave the X2 as it is one of the top phones among the phones that are not yet confirmed.
So long story short, I think we are gonna see an update.
I have also been reading by different reviewers and such that, they feel like the dual core phones will likely receive ICS. But, you never know. If the DX2 does get it, I would bet on this summer.

The official Motorola list has the DX2 as under evaluation for ICS which may be the same as never. My hope is that ICS is more profitable to Google for some reason so they would push Moto to update more phones. Even if it only makes it to a QA server and gets leaked out I would be happy.

X2 is not listed as NOT getting ICS. The article states:
The Droid 2, Defy, and Droid X don't appear to have made it to evaluation and planning considerations, but instead are listed alongside the most recent upgrade currently available (2.2 or 2.3).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you look at the actual Motorola page, the X2 is listed as in the evaluation and planning stage whereas before it was shown as having received the 2.3.4 upgrade. This doesn't guarantee an ICS upgrade, but it also doesn't rule it out of consideration like the Droid 2, Defy and Droid X appear to have been.
Just wanted to clear that up. I'm still waiting to hear back from Motorola and/or see what actions they take, but HTC is definitely the way I'm going. They just announced MORE phones that they are adding to their bootloader unlocking program.

I've been a user of many motorola products for YEARS.
this statement means "we have abandoned this device, but the first ones are still under warranty so we have to say this"
their software engineers need to all die in a fire, they've let me down in this regard numerous times over the years
however, I have NEVER had ANYTHING motorola fail on me hardware wise, well aside from the touchscreen on my MW-520 mobile computer, but it got hit by some untethered cargo during a 45mph side-impact collision, and it still fn worked, it was just cracked.
that's the ONLY reason I won't go HTC, never had ANYTHING HTC last longer than 90 days without having some kind of hardware problem, and I've had half a dozen different ones (probably 2 dozen if you count all the warranty replacements)
Today I had my very first service/call quality issue ever, I ended up reporting an outage/interference in downtown Denver cause it was only in a 2 block area. Strange thing was my co-worker who is a sprint customer had the exact same issues on a completely different phone, and they both worked fine there yesterday.
My wife got the Droid Razr on launch day in November and she has gotten 3 updates since then. I have had my X2 since July and have only gotten 2 updates. This is ridiculous. Even Apple put out updates for my 2nd Gen Ipod touch for 2 years after I bought it. This will not make me leave Android though. But I will leave Motorola. HTC is doing a great job unlocking there phones for power users if they are unsatisfied with the way their phones currently run. And that's where I'm headed. The HTC Rezound has several ICS roms already and that impresses me because that's the phone that I'm probably going to get. Sorry for the rant. I just needed to say something about this.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to remember reading somewhere that when a company(Moto, Htc, ect..) use "Google's" Android os they are required to keep it updated to the latest version for 18 months after its original release . If this is the case then you people are making a big deal out of nothing . The X2 will get ICS . Maybe we wont be first but we'll get it .

For me it's not about getting ICS, it's about updates that fix the problems with this phone. Sure, I want ICS but I would be satisfied with regular GB updates. I understand that it will take awhile for us to get ICS since they have so many phones out there. Not knowing whether or not they have ended support for the X2 is what's frustrating.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Im just happy that we have devs like dragon willing to bring us things like CM7, and a 2nd init. This, plus speedyscript and mashupV1 have made my dx2 a beast. dropping a 2933 in quadrant, and doing everything you ask of it and more as fast as any of the phones out there currently, makes me happy. Im sure with him and the others chugging away, we will have ICS whether moto wanted us to have it or not.

Ahh wouldn't that be because the 18 months had passed(nov09-jun11). That and maybe because it (og droid )couldn't run it with all the bloatware . I think hardware exceptions can and will be made . If you want ICS so bad then go buy a nexus or wait paiteintly for it to come out .We will have it one way or another. Moaning and growning about it here is absolutley useless!

I think Moto will stick to the timeline they have posted. ICS has been in development for the Photon for a while now and from all I have read with the re-structuring of Moto Mobility it seems they are pushing to get devices on the latest Android releases. Sounds to me like Google wants Moto to get on an update schedule similar to what the Nexus devices are on. This should not be a problem with Moto not having to support so many devices in the future.
I do hope that if/when ICS does come to the Photon it is a better release than what other manufacturers have pushed out. Everyone I have heard from that has gotten ICS hates it and wants GB back. Of course the best bet is to wait until our developers get the proper drivers and incorporate the missing pieces into custom roms and run those.
Only thing I'm worried about is a permalocked boot loader ICS

I would PM Joker or Th3Bill with that link, just in case they missed it.
i don't care whether we get the official ICS, or even the drivers from another phone as long as the drivers are taken, and can be used towards all of the problems with the custom ICS and JB roms i will be happy. Hopefully if we cant get drivers from another phone the official ICS will get rolled out soon.
This is a seriously dead topic that's been discussed over and over and over again. 12 months in a year, 4 quarters in a year. 12 divided by 4 is 3. Each quarter is three months long. Q3 ends with September. Q4 begins with October. Atrix ICS before end of September. Photon ICS before end of December. Atrix and photon = same hardware. Meaning, our jb and ICS ROMs will be perfectly stable shortly after the atrix ICS gets released.
^^^^^^
i was just about to say. Q4 starts in october
captivate ics wont really change terribly much. look at the xoom ics or even gtab 10.1. all used diff camera sensors/wrappers so sure the chipset is the same.. but the crap that is needed for stable isnt :/
unless something has drastically changed since the last time i talked to joker the camera was the last big hurdle?

Those tablets use a different type of Tegra 2, that's why. Photon/ Atrix= AP20H, Xoom/ Galaxy Tabs= T20. The captivate uses the same chip set as these Moto Tegra devices. People from the Atrix forums have started looking into the captivate leaks for anything, just be patient and wait for the news
Sent from my undervolted, underclocked, power saving Motorola Atrix.
understandable that its the same tegra chipset but that doesnt mean its the same camera module. this is a different manufacturer we are talking about (samsung at that so it actually has a decent camera unlike moto)
Unless you're stuck with a locked bootloader or fortunate enough to be in a WiMax market, head over to the developer's forum and load one of the many ICS or JB based ROMs. Joker's CM10 based ROM is as stable or better of an experience than I ever had with factory.

I'm not holding my breath for Verizon to release JB for this phone, wouldn't be surprised one bit if we didn't get it. I'm with prairiedogn though with hoping this community gets some kind of growth here in the future.
The original Incredible got 4 updates in all, and got its most recent update this past summer, over 2 years after its debut, but the update broke most peoples' phones, and it has been speculated that it was intentional.
All the major manufacturers claim they support a phone for 18 months after its debut, so hopefully at least one big update is coming our way. I expect we'll at least get 4.1.2, but that might be the end of it. If not even that, I'll be pretty disappointed.
Maybe we'll get to skip Jelly Bean and go straight to Key Lime Pie. At least that's what I'm hoping for.

Not necessarily true. Many things can be done with out kernel source as long as the knowledge (as in people with the knowledge and the device) to do it is available. That is usually the big hurdle though.
