Waiting for my text!!! LOL

If that is true it would be great, but the message is a bit premature.
There are no signs of the soak test even being conducted yet (at least I haven't seen any yet)

Well, it only said "soon" and that is not a specific date or time, "soon" is relative. "Soon" could mean next week or even next month.

Got it too
I just got the same text message on my DROID RAZR and I assume that now we just continue to play the waiting game until the update is actually pushed -_-

You just got the same text message on your phone? You created an account just to say that? How convenient.

No, actually he joined in 2010 and waited 2 years just to say this.

Haha wow, I didn't even see that. I've been so used to the ICS troll threads I saw his post count and was like...really?! He had some serious foresight though, seeing this thread 2 years in advance, and knowing that THIS, right here, would be his time to finally come out and say something.

You, are a tool.

If this is serious, no IM client built in? Seems strange. I know when I had my Gnex it had an IM client. I assumed it was built into ICS.

Verizon Rejecting Motorola GB Updates?

This is interesting.
Found these links in the Moto Atrix forums.
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/28/rumor-motorola-puts-gingerbread-on-hold-builds-for-droid2-global-etc-to-work-out-bugs/
http://phandroid.com/2011/06/29/did-verizon-reject-motorola-gingerbread-updates-for-being-overly-buggy/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
Wonder if there is truth to this or not.
if it is true then +1 to verizon. tmobile or att would probably allow them even if they were buggy.
Yeah I saw that on phonearena.com this morning. I wonder how often this kinda stuff happens. Moto needs to step up their game bigtime.

Lmao are you kidding me? Have you seen how long it takes AT&T to push out updates to their android phones?
I'd rather have a buggy release sooner because devs on XDA are like 10x faster at fixing them anyways.
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
Maybe the update also has the possibility to unlock bootloader and Verizon is saying f*&k no, take it back.
probably not, but would suck for vzw users
Hopefully that doesn't delay the Atrix update D:
Forget that. Send it out now. I trust our devs more than moto to fix the bugs and do it better lol.

because att has most likely seen this and other carriers might follow? who knows.
think about if verizon doesnt let this release because of so many bugs, then think about if att does let it release with all its bugs. people will think att is careless, att doesnt want that im sure.. just my oppinion

It's relevant because the same or similar bugs could exist in the Atrix GB they are developing. Also, if they are putting more resources into making Verizon happy, this could delay an Atrix release.
The whole point of the thread was to raise discussion about the possible implications if this news is in fact true.
I don't think that it should have any effect on our beloved Atrix 2.3 release (AT&T version), coz the bootloader is unlocked, so even if the update will be buggy the skillful devs here at XDA will do there magic to provide us with stable roms.

I believe you are wrong. As soon as the GB update goes live everyone is going to dump the HKTW build and flash the Moto update. At that point everyone is running stock and waiting for devs to fix all their complaints. Yes most of us will not be running stock, but that will be after the update comes.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
I'm not dumping the HKTW build until it's been verified that the AT&T 2.3.4 build will have an unlockable bootloader. I've had a couple of friends that got hurt by the Sprint EVO 4G update and are still stuck waiting just to get root back.

Um, I believe none of us can know exactly what will be out. For all you or I know, we could be on the verge of cm7. With most things working.
Of course, a reply I would expect from you is "the devs won't have roms out by then."

Don't forget that it depends on the carrier if they will allow it. But who knows verizon really doesn't like root users. I believe sprint is the only carrier that doesn't care what you do to your phone.

It says the will ACTIVATE with unlocked. Doesn't say they will give us an opportunity to unlock. Sneaky wording at least that's what I am taking from this until I see my x2 with unlocked BL or Verizon put a statement saying they will allow current users to unlock.

Maybe with google on board now they will unlock it since they are doing away with the nexus as a dev phone, alteast that its what I heard.

Yes, once the OTA drops, kernel source isn't too far behind, and that's always good for development.

Swype beta ftw! I'm going to try to keep everything in stock as possible for a while when I get the phone, but I'm sure I'll end up back on Swype beta, and Nova or Holo launcher. The only thing really wanting me to try and keep the stock keyboard is the one handed feature...but I have a flygrip so I don't think one handed use will be an issue at all.
