It looks to me like the main reason I can't get bluetooth working on the BR/Rodgers/LATAM Razr on all the new GSM ICS variants is because there is no updated (2.3.6) kernel for it.
Can anyone help in what may be able to be modified in the ICS roms so that the BT doesn't cause reboots/crashes ? Or is anyone aware of a 2.3.6 rom/kernel to get it compatible ?
I'm just a noob, so maybe I am totally wrong here ?

Thanks for the tip, but that still does not work. I have tried 2 that i have come across. The reason being I believe is that the nandroid still does not change the kernel. Are you aware of one that works? That why i posted, so someone could point me in the right direction if they have had success.

I am on that rom now, and have been several times.
Here is the kernel version: 2.6.35.7-g3798510
The kernel does not change, and you found out as well.
As far as moving to general: This is really an issue that would help move along development by enabling those with BR/LATAM devices to work with the newer roms. Thats why I posted here.
I get your point and is some how logical. I wonder if we could flash the kernel separately.. is still the same device just different signature
Lets hope a dev comes to the rescue

Unfortunately it looks like we are at the mercy of Motorola to release a 2.3.6 update for the BR. I was hoping a dev could shed some light on the possibility of replacing the ICS rom's bluetooth portion with one from 2.3.5 to stop the crash or get it useable.

I don't believe in 2.3.6 to my br razr no more.I see Q1 ending in 2 weeks, and the ICS rollout is going to happen in Q2 according to moto announcement. For the sake of my update i hope they skip this 2.3.6 and go right to the point giving us 4.0! (Or we will see 2.3.6 while the rest of the world gets they ICS and then, my friend, we are really screwed).

So hold on a second, there's a way to go from Brazilian ROM to the en.eu stock ROM and then onto the en.eu leaked ICS build? And the only problem is that bluetooth doesn't work in ICS? Does it work if you flash the Gingerbread en.eu build?
How's the switch to en.eu ROM is done? Just by editing build.prop file? Can you post this build.prop file please?

The BT doesn't work because of the incompatibility of 4.0 BT and the 2.3.5 kernel. Changing to the en.eu rom dosn't change your kernel version, just the system version.
You can just install arctic 3.0 on your BR if you want 2.3.6 system, but you will still be on the old kernel.

After I install arctic 3.0 -- can I flash the stock 2.3.x en.eu ROM? Does the fastboot image not include the kernel? So if I go BR -> arctic -> en.eu GB -> en.eu ICS why my kernel would still be the old one?

We can't change our kernel no matter what you do.
You can run whatever system you want, including like for example Ubuntu or Gentoo Linux, Arctic ROM, CM, etc BUT, you will be using the same kernel (that we can't change no matter what).
We can only boot official motorola kernel signed for LATAM. EU users have a wider option of kernels, including the one from the leaked ICS.
For now, LATAM users can choose between 2 very similar kernel versions. The one from retail rom and the other from vivo.
I am impresse that the only incompatibility noticed so far is the Bluetooth. Can anyone please confirm that?
I'm running ICS with BR kernel (vivo). Besides Bluetooth, we got no hardware acceleration working, but i didn't noticed performance drop in any game compared to 2.3.5. i believe the problem it's just the implementation in google chrome and flash video layer too.
I will switch back to GB because of the camcorder

Why is this in the retail rom thread? If this is a custom rom it doesn't belong here!

How should I decide which one is suitable for my phone?
Honestly I don't know which rom is suitable for Indian phones but I am surprised that you flashed an unofficial ics rom without making a fallback nandroid backup....
India was a part of British colony so flashing a rom for EU/GB may be just fine :-DD

Here're all current XT910 Leaks listed, that we got right now. But unfortunately there's no ME Retail. I'm not sure, if you can use the Asian or EU Retail. Sorry, i guess you'll have to wait for official release. Maybe another ME Retail user can confirm, that you can use one of this Leaks. I won't brick your Phone

Hi Masaud,
Go to this link and download the version 673.94.324.XT910.MERetail.en.06
http://www.droidevelopers.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1408
Flash it using RSD and following the necessary procedures involved, you will have ICS on your RAZR. Once flashed, go to About Phone and check for system updates and you will get an update notification which will take it to 673.94.328
Enjoy your RAZR with ICS!
Thanks.Finally i managed to get ICS on my Razr.But after installing I tried to update it and it says there is no update availabe.I am now on

Is it good and stable? I have a Middle East Razr Maxx and about to try this out.
Yes, it is stable and I am getting a good battery life as well.
Do anyone know from where to download Blur_Version.673.94.328.XT910.MERetail.en.06?
I am very sorry people but I have no idea what to do.
I have a Motorola RAZR XT910 with the 651.167.21.XT910.Retail.en.EU firmware. When I hit system-update the phone tells me that there is no update available. As far as I can tell my phone is unbranded. My carrier is from germany is called Simyo and runs on the german E-Plus network.
I have read that the updates to ICS should be rolling out sometime this month.
But I was wondering if I could update to ICS without waiting? There are so many ROMS and Fastboot and stuff flying around that I have no idea what to take and to flash. What I know is I have to flash the following version of exact my ROM, right? So maybe it isnt even possible?
Answer would be appreciated.
Cheers
why dont u flash an ICS stock ROM then?
mine have the same version with urs, and then i flash an ICS stock ROM as soon it's available here

Can I flash any ICS stock ROM? I am unsure because I read that you can only flash ROMs that work with the right build.
So I will just take a ROM from the Project Eternity thread that is ICS and flash it, right?
yes u can. before that, just make sure that the ROM is for XT910. Not for XT910S or else

Sgh t959 was updated only to android 2.2(by Samsung) officially but custom ROM developer s helped our device to run latest Android softwares there is a ROM ported to our device I think its 2.3.5 and its a very good and stableextrain my opinion i think it is stock rom ported to our device with extra features its name is simply vibrant xxjvt http://dineshrathod.info/2011/09/13/rom-get-android-2-3-5-for-samsung-vibrant-t959/ but you will have to find the software somewhere else as the links are of multi upload

Sadly, no. As mentioned above, the Samsung Vibrant never received an official Gingerbread update. So there is no stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 ROM. However, you can find plenty custom ROMs based on 2.3.6 available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982728
I suggest Simply Stock, a download link can be found in the thread linked above. I believe that is the closest thing to a stock Gingerbread ROM.

I have the razr maxx and I passed it down to my hubby. It is still on ICS 4.0.4 running Evolution rom.
I am having trouble updating his google apps and can not get google play services on it in every way I have tried. It just keeps saying an error about being signed in to another user id.
Hubby hates when I make changes he is not a crack flasher LOL. I never even updated to JB because of this. But now it seems his apps he wants to use need a newer set of gapps?
Not sure can someone give me a rom or tell me how to do an update on this? Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated!
no one? Do I have to update to JB or can I just get an newer AOSP rom. Any help appreciated pretty please?

You don't have to update to JB because all KK roms are kexec (custom kernel) based roms,I'm still on ICS and every few days I flash another rom to test it
My advice is to try Gummy,Axxion,LiquidSmooth or Aosb rom,they are really good
