I flashed ics last night and it works great. I like it better than GB. But I have bloat wear from GB. I know this is not the official ics. But how do I get rid of the GB bloat where? Also does TB work and for some reason my TB key Gen will not unlock TB.
Thank you

Removing bloat is built into ics. I hope by key gen you don't mean how do i get my pirated copy off titanium to work... We won't help with that.

Also, I was able to keep root just fine too.

since this is a leak of a version of the official leak, could we update from the leak to the OTA update without going back to .173? if not, could this work without wiping data because i hate reinstalling everything and placing them on the home screen.

Just out of curiosity, what are you running right now? Because if you are running an ICS rom, and you're using a launcher such as Nova, make a backup with that...then after you get the leak installed, just restore the backup.

What I did was...I backed up all my apps & app data & MMS/SMS etc. with MyBackup Pro. I also backed up Nova Launcher settings, Plume settings, etc within those apps. Then I followed Arcane's instructions EXACTLY to get on the leak. Then I restored all my apps. Then I restored the MMS/SMS, Dictionary, Call Log, etc. Then I restored data for certain specific apps...then I rebooted. Then I restored Nova's backup (which fixed my homescreen setup, etc)... then I manually fixed the other small things the backups missed...and all in all this entire setup (excluding the actual leak flashing, lol) took me 20 min or so...

Trust me, don't try to shortcut the OP instructions...just follow exactly what it says, and you'll be fine. Try to shortcut and you will have issues. Lol

Ive had this ics on my razor for the last week. I love the layout. But here are some gripes i have about it.

I have unlimited data on my plan and even with the settings turned off its still notifies me of data usage warning. Never had this prob before on the gingerbread. 173.

My wifi is not as great. It goes in and out alot and never had this.problem before. Though my girlfriends razr which has gingy. 173 still has steady connection. Like said before never had this.prob before.

The keyboard keys are way to small when you are in portrait view in my mind but landscape is just fine.

Battery i feel like is actually worse but maybe that is just me.

I know this is.just a leaked version and not the official but.i thought i would point this out for anyone who is thinking about doing this. It was very simple to do and not dangerous as long as you have a fully charged phone and the gingy fastboot files. Incase you want to go back or have any problems. Which i might be going back to gingy for now. Does anyone else have any problems with this ics or gripes?

I would just like to point out though for anyone thinking of doing the leak that I have been running it for well over a week (that app which we don't speak of method) and have had absolutely zero issues.

Yeah, I've been running this leak for about a week & my only gripe is that MyVerizon won't let me log in, lol...

Hey man, for your data issue, go into settings>data usage. In there just raise the bar...it's preset at 2Gig, lol. You never saw this on Gingerbread because that's a feature of ICS, to help people on tiered data to keep from going over.
Personally I haven't had any issues with the wifi...and the keyboard seems right to me...looks about the same as the Gnex keyboard...

Ummm..battery life has been great for me as well....

Anyway, back to work for me, lol...hope I helped somewhat:)

Just posting to say "another satisfied customer" here..this build is rocking so far.

[OlDirtyGrizzly]

Well maybe i should.just try a factory reset maybe that will help with the wifi. But it is the best layout ever of android
And thanks for.data warning tip! Is there anything you guys wanted to see that wasnt in this.version? Like screenshot?

when i do fastboot back to .173 to do the official OTA, will it erase backups?

Nand backups are stored on the external sdcard so it won't delete them.

Motorola has its own Staging, QA, and various other servers that can be accessed using an app called that app which we don't speak of. So no Moto employees were involved necessarily, just had to access the right server at the right time.

Because it's a huge risk to our community and the latest blast of people that hit it for this leak attracted a ton of attention that will cripple our ability to pull leaks in the future.

[RangeOfficer452]

Anyone who does not think that Moto doesn't know about the app and what people continue to do when leaks come out are delusional. They have people watching or just like this day in and day out.

[RangeOfficer452]

Or=forums

[sjskent]

Yea. Cuz Moto doesn't track these forums. Right!!

I believe Motorola is using us for additional info and as beta testers.....I also believe there is damage being done by all the talk about soak tests... there not supposed to be discussed here.. yet they seem to be in every thread involving the leaked ics....why bite the hand that feeds you... I'm not understanding this at all...

Despite what was rumored before, there is no NFC chip in this phone so no it won't work.
