The battery life is awesome on 651.167.20. (GSM/UMTS)
Yes, the battery life is good with this OTA. I had 1 day, or 2....
Same here, battery life is great with this update.
Battery life with the latest OTA 651.167.19, it is better than the leaked 651.167.20. I suggest you to flash it directly with RSD lite and then wipe data / cache from recovery.
i didnt find a link to the ota of .19 the eu version not the fr

It's in the stock ROMs thread. The full set of fastboot files labelled 167.20 is actually 167.19.

Last I saw, the OTA labelled 167.20 actually was 167.20. Fastboot files are definitely preferable to OTAs, since you don't have to bugger around getting deleted or modified system files in order.

My problem is that, i cant go back to GB. My Device is a Motorola RAZR XT910 with Stock firmware 2.3.6 Telcel (LATAM)
Problem?
ID Error on motorola Boot, the only way i can run my device is with "Bptools" on bootloader. so i knew that thing, but im tired of this and i want back my GB.
i try to return the file mmcblk1p18 in dev/block/mmcblkp18 but inst working. somebody can help me with dat? and sorry for my poor inglish, im Latam...
in my opinion return to GB from ICS its very difficult. because its different kernel and boot loader - I think so
No method yet.....why u didnt read the thread before flashing?

Yeah, you're right because german leak doesn't need to replace the p18 partition. So, OP, you are able to downgrade anyway, you're luck!

Hey guys, I also flashed my razr to the leak ice 4.0.4 this moring.
so far, I satisfy with it without doubts. But what I am now concerning is can I flash my razr back to a rom which is not the T-Mobile version? I mean can I flash the Asia ics rom once such rom for razr actually comes out?
Thx guys!

Maybe you need the p18 trick to do this. But just try without it, you can go back to the german leak anytime you want. But root will be gone.
You can flash the chinese leak, just use RSD to flash ONLY System, then reboot into recovery, let it wokr, then reboot using BP tools, device will boot into chinese leak. But you won't have root and so you cannot delete the chinese stuff and bloat... So, the best hing would be to stay on the german leak 'till we'll have found a way to change it. And by the way, the german leak runs better for me (tested both of them).

May be I should wait patiently until you guys have developed some new stuffs
PS After flashing my razr to ics, I found that when using the built-in message app to send SMS to my friends (in chinese content), my friends told me they cannot see the message. To be precise, what my friends received were the empty boxes.
I can only send these messages through the 3rd party app.Anyone know how to solve this problem? Thx man
Why does no one read? Its like its a lost art. The op explains everything in the main ics leak thread. Yet there are people everywhere asking what can't or is very difficult to do. Sigh

I came from the Galaxy S forums where all these ROMs and updates were given to you on a silver platter instructions and all
I'm using a GSM Canadian Droid RAZR purchased from Fido, running on the Virgin Mobile network. (Yeah, its complicated.)
System Version:
651.167.3331.XT910.Fido.en.CA
Android Version
2.3.6
I've been waiting all this time for the Verizon update, but only realized a week ago that Verizon is CDMA, and theres no chance I'll get it on my Fido branded RAZR.
What do I need to do? I downloaded the LATAM 2.3.6 GB as well as the 4.04 ICS. I have RSD Lite but no idea how to use it. My device is complete vanilla. Do I have to root/install CWM in order to install 2.3.6?
And should I do data/cache wipe. If so, how?
Thanks in advance. I really don't know whats going on.
Oops. I thought this would automatically be moved to Q&A after I checked that box. Could a mod move it there please?
Thanks

Hey, I'm actually in the same boat as this guy. I have a Rogers GSM Razr and I'm wondering if I want to install an ICS kernel based ROM, I have to use RSD lite to flash up to an ICS stock rom, and then flash the rom I want, right?
Thanks for the link Pedro.
Does my phone need any modifications (root/CWM) in order for me to flash with RSD?

Not really. Take your phone as a latam device. Any rom for a latam razr will work fine.
Just follow the procedure for ics on latam razr.
You have 4 Langs on ir. Eng. Pt. En. Fr.
And I posted a working 1 click root method today.

Waiting is annoying. In particular for us, the razr (maxx) users in asia. After waiting for a day and a day, a month and a month, a delay followed by another, ics update for asia razr has finally be officially informed. This is really a godsend gift from motorola!
Though, some impatient asia razr users (myself inclusive) who has flashed the ics leak, can we go back to the asian retail version? I currently am in t-mobile german 4.0.4 ics leak, how can I flash back my razr to hongkong retail version? Is it just the same way as flashing from german version to european ics version? In fact, if this is the way, i don't quite understand what the boot.img is and how can i get it. Would anyone of the profession gives a helpful hand to us?
Thx guys!
You might need to wait for the ics fast boot files..

May i ask, what is fast boot file? is it as same as the ota file?
One more question, just about flashing logic in my mind.
Process to flash will be:
1. Flashing the boot.img in fast boot.
2. Flashing the stock hk 2.3.5 rom with Rsd.
3. Flashing the ics ota in recovery.
Am i correct? If yes then, how can i get the boot.img for asia version?
we dont have the leak yet. just wait for the Fast boot file

The fast boot file is the firmware in the format in which we can use rsd to flash out in the phone.

Sorry,being kind of a noob myself i don't know how to post links just search the forums and look for videos on YouTube, that's what I did, because the razr has a locked bootloader it's very hard to really ruin it, seems the devs have a fix for everything ! Good luck

I don't know if this will let me post a link yet, but the "Literally Fool Proof Guide To Installing .211 (ICS)" (Google that) was the guide that got the update installed for me. It involved wiping the phone, but it's worth it since I had the time to go through my Titanium backups, etc. Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692694
EDIT: BTW, I had to get Version 1.7 of Matt's DroidRAZRUtility to re-root after installing ICS 4.0.4 (i.e. the .211 update). Version 1.6 didn't root it. I did not need the "Modified" version 1.6, though; did the fastboot flashing with Matt's 1.6-final. I also had to install updated Motorola drivers (came with DroidRAZRUtility1.7forICS.zip) to reroot.

Be warned that you cannot downgrade back after flashing it.
I've been using this Firmware. It's cool since GSM/UMTS works beautifully as well as LTE/CDMA ...

Now I am free to try any rom with my new XT912 right? (old XT910S is still bricked)
Thanks a bunch!
p.s. I really hope that someone would be kind enough to upload the sbf of XT910S Korea.
So this is the .211 Fastboot files for the CDMA RAZR (912) correct? So now I can fastboot this and NOT have to use Matt's 1.7 utility to "unstuck" my RAZR and flash the .211 OTA?
I'm assuming then this is the OFFICIAL 211 image.
Also, noticed that the XML file doesn't have the entry to wipe your internal SD card. Thank goodness that was removed (even though it was an easy edit).

It allows you to flash your phone with a fresh install of ICS .211 (the same as the OTA) through RSD Lite. So, if you really mess up your phone trying to install a ROM or something, you can get back to stock ICS. That is all this file does - makes your phone stock. Originally we would flash the 2.3.6 SBF file to get back to GB. However, if you installed the OTA or some of the ICS leaks the bootloader changed, so flashing the 2.3.6 file would have caused your phone to become a brick (meaning you would need a new one). So now guys can mess with their phones (like we did on GB) and we can have this to fall back on if something goes wrong while trying to get our flashing fix...
Enjoy guys

And soon, Matt should release v1.8 of his utilities which will make it even easier for us to go back to stock.
