Should a new TFP owner update...

Im possibly getting the TFP tonight from a bestbuy near me. Im wondering if I should update to the OTA from yesterday or stick with 11.1
It seems although the .13 update solved alot of issues it brought others with it. I wont be missing any battery life if I update because I am not use to the past versions myself since I never had the TFP so im wondering if I should just go ahead with the update or stick with w.e. is out the box? Any advice? Thanks.

Any way to get back to gbread?

I am perfectly happy with ics but I haven't seen a thread stating if you could just rsd back to. 173 if you installed the cheesecake leak. Hopefully this will generate a positive answer from someone that has actually done it.

Thanks, I'm curious myself.
I'm not ready to give up ics but I have only had it 3 days. If it turds I need a backup plan. I hope it works for you

It does turd. Day 4 here and I'm currently RSDing right back to stock then onward to .173
Couldn't take the following anymore:
Pull down curtain becomes TOTALLY unresponsive at random times. Hot reboot required to fix.
After dialing a phone number, talking, hanging up and the going to make another call, the previous phone number I dialed is there causing me to dial a 20 digit number
Google Voice notifications do not stay in the curtain. They notify then automatically get deleted.
WiFi connectivity drops out random, dconn and reconn to fix.
Prepare for De-Turding!
...and now you know, folks, why we're apparently getting another Gingerbread update prior to ICS. Development can be fun, but be certain--Motorola knows what they're doing.

Did you do a full wipe after you installed the leak? I have a few minor issues but its still running good. Froze 30 apps though lol
My Wi-fi is bad on Gingerbread anyway.
For some reason, this Razr doesn't have the signal strength of all the other Android phones I have.
Note, while writing this message, I had a signal Drop out again ffs
Mine acted a bit strange until i did a factory reset, running zero problems since Sunday

Should always wipe after a major update like this.
I installed the ICS leak via Cheesecake and have since RSD'd back to. 173 and re rooted. Just follow the fastboot instructions and you'll be fine.

Personally, I've been very content with GB. When I started seeing all the ICS leak posts, I got curious and thought, "why not?"
I've tried it, and actually thought the leak was very nice. However, I felt better going back to stock for now as it looks like a new GB OTA will be released soon, and hopefully ICS not too far after.
Really liked what I saw in the ICS build.

Everyone on the leak will begin to experience what I did. It's unlikely, but possibly, that I have a defective phone, so it'll happen.
I did do a factory reset, full wipe etc. and everything was incredible for about 4 days. Then as someone else so eloquently put it, ICS started to "Turd" on me.
Once it does that 100 times or so, you start thinking about "DeTurding" which is you're only option.
sadly, ICS isn't ready, nor will it be if we wait on Motorola.
Devs, start your threads! I'm willing to pay you to finish ICS!
Any chance you have a link to the files?

the cool thing though, is that we have "the" ICS base including kernel to build off of.. granted, we can't make many kernel tweaks beyond what's 'allowed' w/ a locked bootloader, but I believe having an ICS kernel directly from Moto will help w/ the CM9 builds etc..
Lots less to go wrong w/ having proper drivers etc. to work off of.
(hopefully anyway)
EDIT:.. I just fastbooted back to .173 and all seems well
I just installed ICS today, and I haven't experienced any of these problems at all. I'm curious as to how many of you factory reset after the install? Everything I've read says factory reset after install does the trick.
I absolutely love ICS! (but I'm glad to hear RSD works if I DO run into any problems)
\\Carved into this thread by my ICS RAZR//

I was trying to fast boot back earlier today and it it would get to the 5th item of flashing and give me an unknown error and fail. Luckily Matt G was able to flash back the 4G radio for me. He mentioned deleting the OEM lines will clear the errors.
I am not the greatest when it comes to command lines and all that junk. I have only ever used his utility but 1.5 wasn't restoring the 4G either. Now I have 1.51...
Is RSD just simply download the file, select the "uncompress and flash" or is there some other modification needed to flash the file?
Just hoping someone with a bit more know how can chime in.
*UPDATE:I re downloaded everything and it worked. Must have just been a bad DL of the RSD File.

ICS problems noticed

Now that ICS is officially rolling out I've noticed 2 issues, wondering if anyone else has noticed these ??
Running .211 here (which according to VZW is the official build) and I notice 2 issues.
1)GPS is not consistently working. It keeps showng myself as in Kingsland, GA. A reboot seems to fix it.
2)Corporate Sync is not working on our 2003 Exchange server for PUSH email - was working fine under GB.
BTW - I posted this on Motorola support forums and get a pretty nasty response...
If you have side-loaded or jumped through hoops to install software the shady way, this forum is not for you.
If you downloaded stolen software, you are going to have to live with the consequences of running unfinished software.
There is no support here for people running stolen software.
What does it means, ics officially running?

I dont know how it works but I'd assume that just because they didn't change the build #, doesn't mean they didn't tweak programs in the ram disk, it could be that build # = kernel revisions. If I were you and I had a cwm installed I'd make a nandroid, ti back up all of your user apps (not system), pull both to a safe spot on your comp. Wait for the update to be available to install , test the apps your having problems with, if they work recover the ti backup and your good, if not restore your nandroid, and complain officially with out mentioning the leak

I was running ICS .211 and could not get Corporate Sync to work either. Worked great on BG and since I use my phone for work, I had to go back to GB.
I really hope they worked this out, or they are going to have a host of unhappy customers as soon as they push the OTA.
My GPS was fine FWIW.
Seems to me that perhaps they will be updating more than just ics for us.. And those updates were not in the leak..

Been running the .211 leak for about 6 hours. Have used GPS navigation in the car dock twice and it has worked perfectly each time. GPS lock achieved almost instantly.
Can't comment on the corp sync as I don't play that game.
Also, I find the comments about "stolen" software amusing. Perhaps when Google really gets their hooks in Moto they'll start to embrace the enthusiast community.

I fired up Nav and it locked onto my correct location almost immediately. I'm noticing the issue with a couple of weather widgets (stock and WeatherBug). Almost seems that after the phone goes to "sleep" for a bit it takes me from Wisconsin to Georgia lol...
When I fired up Google Maps after it thinks I'm in GA it shows me there as well (initially), then it will show me in my correct location.

If you use hashcode's safestrap method to get to .211 from GB .181 you can go back.

ICS Isn't officially rolling out today despite what being said on VZW. Motorolla has stated already that the soak tests are rolling out today. IF all goes well with the soak (which I don't think it will as there are a couple of unresolved issues), then the OTA goes to the genral public next week.
Theres a bit of confusion on this. VZW stated on their twitter that its going out to all in batches, Motorola has stated "select users" starting today. I will believe Motorola because the soak for ICS hasn't started yet!

Razrs with exact same mac addr? Help please.....

Have a issue with the two razrs I have currently attached to my network. They show up is having the same mac address! Maybe. I am confused and do not understand how Mac addr work, but I did not think that was possible. Needless to say only one of us is able to be on at a time...
.i have tried using static ips but that doesn't help.
Both are running the latest weekly miui (2.8.3)
Sent from my XT910 using Tapatalk 2
wow that is really strange, the mac address is usually linked to the wifi hardware, i don't really know how can this is possible, but try to install a different rom in one of the two razr, maybe there is a problem in the miui (not sure that this can really help)
Are you confusing MAC address with IP address?

I'm having the same problem as the OP, as you can see in the picture. On the left is my RAZR, and on the right is my housemate's RAZR. We only started getting wifi connection issues after updating to the 4.1.2 JB leak. We're at a loss as to what to do, so for the time being, I am not the one using wifi.
FYI, my RAZR JB leak was side loaded, while my housemate's RAZR was one of the few that took the update OTA.

No Call Audio Jelly Bean

I have no audio on calls on Jelly bean. Ive tried switching roms to different Jelly bean roms and no difference. This is so annyoing cause I can not call or receive calls! Any solutions??
I had this happen to me. I called at&t and they disconnected and reconnected my phone to the local tower and it started working fine again.
I get the same problems using a couple roms on here...I get reboots..then when comes back on I have no data..or someone will call and I can hear thrm but they cannot hear me....I found just rebooting fixes this...but I'm starting to hate JB right now...lol
If this solved the problem please respond and add [SOLVED] to the thread title so others with the same problem can benefit
I have the exact same problem with CM10, and it started with an old nightly, then I upgraded to the latest nightly and its still occuring. Anyone know whats going on, I don't want to go back to CM9
Rebooting is not fixing it.

Try a re flash. That was the only way I corrected this issue when I was running JB. I'm on ICS now and all issues have gone away. Soon, JB will be that way too. Until then though....
Sent from one bad ass, highly modified, Samsung Galaxy Note running Novena A3 using the BEST in mobile apps, XDA-Developers!
Until official jb source drops for our phone this will be a problem on ALL job roms . It seems to affect some more than others. For me, this happened less often than for most. However, it always happened at the worst times.. I am currently using the ICS based 7005 ROM with Google now and 4.2 camera flashed after the fact and find it to be an excellent compromise. 100% stability with 95% of the feature set and buttery smoothness.
I can't wait to see what PTMR3 does with padawan on this base....or better yet what manelscout4life brings us with official jellybean code..
