Experimental Stock Build .2233 -Latest Bionic Leak discussion

Yes, from 2231 I did the process all over again, the FXZ back to 902, accept OTA update for 905, then flashed 2233 from stock recovery. As I was all over the internet tonight downloading files and getting whatever else I needed, I saw a few people saying that they are working on making it possible to flash directly from the first ICS leak to the second one, but the FXZ process seems painless to me so I just went ahead and did it the long way, and I don't know how true it is that they will ever figure out how to do that. Right now, going all the way back to 902 is how to get onto the second leak.


Also used the Razrs Edge tool to root tonight (had never bothered to root the first leak), that utility worked perfectly well and had my phone rooted in two minutes.
 
I did not mess with any pathsaver tools. I believe I saw one or two people even suggesting NOT to use that method. So yes just keep it simple and use RSD Lite and 902 FXZ.
 
This is the leaked file that will take you from .905 STOCK to 6.7.2233 (ICS 4.0.4)
You must be on .905 stock to use this.
You must flash from STOCK RECOVERY.
It is recommended that you do not use Safestrap with this leak.

The recommended method is to FXZ back to .902 then take the OTA to .905 then flash from Stock Recovey.

Link to the file is here: Blur_Version.5.9.905.to6.7.2233.XT875.Verizon.en.US.zip - Google Docs

MD5 is : d4f9bc75285681a8c9b6e637f7dba98e
 
I just took the ICS plunge, fxz to .902 took the .905 update ota, wiped data just to be safe and flashed ICS 2233. Just activated and letting it download stuff from the market, will root and see where we are at when its done. :)

I can already see a lot of bloat that's going to have to go away, but as I'm going to have to FXZ back to .902 anyway to get back on the upgrade path when the final comes out it's no big deal.
 
I wonder if it is GSM enabled like the Razr now? I'm not sure I want to trade unlocked GSM for ICS though. Since Verizon 3G/4G data never works I can stick an ATT card in and have service LOL.

I think I understand the rest but what are you supposed to do with the MD5 stuff, whatever it is? Thx
 
Maybe I spoke too soon. Does anyone else have a problem (on 2233) with text messaging contact pics not displaying?

No issues here with contact pics. However, there's bugs with webtop, ffc camera showing up sideways in the gallery and some icons are a little small. Nothing big... knock on wood.
 
Been on and playing with ICS all day and I hate to say it but I kind of liked Motoblur. Also like many others have reported my CPU is clocked to the same old 1000Mhz, not 1200Mhz.
Still, all in all, a vast improvement!:)

It also seems that their is a image stabilization setting in the camera that in grayed out, at least for me.
 
Okay thanks, I honestly don't use the camera much. After installing ICS is the first time I've even messed with it :)


I had no idea it was there till you mentioned it. I use mine for car cruises if I don't feel like breaking out my dslr

Mine is clocked at 1200. I wonder why some are clocked at 1000? Also looks like a reboot helped fix the small icons. Have you tried a reboot to see if that fixes your CPU. Won't hurt to try.
 
Other than losing my music and titanium backup folders during 905-902-905-2233 somehow, this is the greatest thing to have happened to my bionic! Cant stop playing with it
