It isn't in the "before 2013" category...the description would have stated "Will be upgraded to Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) before 2013."

If you are going to release a phone, you need to push upates faster. Our devs on here could have had it built a long time ago and they have full access to everything. Moto needs to work faster and AT&T needs to stop sucking. They need to be a team for once and push this thing through!

Actually they said $100 towards a new Motorola phone on upgrade if you're eligible AND you have to send then your current device. Just to clarify for anyone who didn't read past the headline of that article back when it was new.

Yep. I like Motorola but I don't know what the hell they were thinking with that. Maybe they thought it worked for Samsung when they released the S3? I have no idea but it's a horrible proposal for anyone who knows how to sell their device themselves.

I just don't understand the point. I didn't see a LOT of improvement on JB over ICS; so far I'm pretty happy with the stock rooted phone OS.
will JB cure cancer ?
I see it as a nice to have, not a deal breaker.

You need to do some more research. The announcement April 4 is with HTC, not Motorola. We have a good chance of seeing the next evo, likely a variant of the one x.

Which will we get: JB or $100?

The most interesting part of this for me was the upgrade promise... "If your device cannot be updated because it degrades the user's experience, Motorola will give you $100 to purchase one of their newer devices"...
Which do you think we'll get?

See: ATRIX HD kernel changer in original Android development section... it's for AT&T phones, so no promises it won't screw something up, although it shouldn't.
EDIT: After a second look, it looks like it will only update the kernel, but not the system. :/

Nice! Hopefully the soak will go out to everyone else in a few days as it did back when the Atrix 2 got its own bug fix update within 3 days of the soak test having started.
No real issues were reported so I'm sure itll roll our soon enough.

Soak tests are kind of a test phase for updates that may (or may not, depending on bug reports) be sent out OTA for everyone else. A few (hundred) people sign up to get the pre-release, and report bugs if any. If very few, or no bugs are reported, the software update is pushed to all users of the device.

Soak tests are pre release tests of future official software updates.
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
Soak tests often end up being the final release that goes out over the air, so I like to think of them as release candidate testing.
The current update soak is limited to specific IMEI numbers for people who signed up and were selected to test and provide feedback to Motorola.
Is it still possible to sign up to be a tester? I somehow got into the samsung dev channel when I was researching phones but that doesn't do me any good now...
Also I would bet we see Jellybean before most other phones, but as it's focused more twards tablets it might be a while. Still nice to see updates coming via the soaks though so maybe they are more on the ball than most so maybe this year. But then again AT&T has to have their hand in it too...
I'm sure well get JB. Problem is I'm sure we wouldn't see it for at least a year or so....
I'm for one hoping you guys get jellybean but wouldn't hold your breath with anything Motorola says after what they did to us og Atrix users. Just wrong.

From what I am hearing, the OG Atrix has issues with the specific NVidia chipset. NVidia is not providing ICS compatible drivers. (hence when there are issues with ICS/JB even with the Cyanogenmod build for OG Atrix)

I'd find that suspect as the Motorola Xoom uses the same Tegra2 chipset as the original Atrix.

That actually isn't true. The Atrix used the AP20H variant while the Xoom used T20. Different types of Tegra 2.

I have to disagree. Moto put in a LOT of wrench time on ICS for Bionic. It's the BEST ICS build out there for any Moto phone IMO. 11 builds to get it right for us.

.247 is on QA1, QA2 and Staging SDC200 and SDC100... I think it's coming along
I'm willing to bet it is the final version.
Once it hits qa4 it's time to celebrate.
I wouldn't get your guy's hopes up too high, given what has happened with the photon/Atrix.
But with any luck since you guys are on the big red, moto will throw at least someone a bone
That situation was just stupid. Moto should perhaps be a little more careful. That's all I'm gonna say about that. Doesn't affect the Bionic in any way.

Confirmed the soak test has started. About damn time.
when they say you have to be stock and not rooted, will that really fail the update? if the ICS build is later than the current ICS build you're running (.232) do I really have to go back to GB or should it update? I'm also planning on pulling the /cache incase it doesn't work 1st time
Updates are designed to *UPDATE* one build and one build only. If you are not on 905, your phone won't even see it on the update server, let alone install it. Rooted doesn't matter.

Our hopes are justified. Why would Moto have this many ICS builds cooking up just to scrap it all?
The Photon never even got an ICS build. Motorola said to abandon hope on it. It didn't even get a leak. However, someone found a leak for the Atrix. Who knows if that'll ever see the light of day? What's even more puzzling is that the Atrix/Photon are both Tegra2 devices.
The best and brightest Android devs have picked apart these Bionic ICS leaks and, not only are these leaks legit but they indicate a Jellybean release is being worked on too. The Bionic will get what it deserves, for once.

Moto Nexus might be sooner than later

Only an idiot would doubt that google will make their own phones through Motorola. Its more a matter of when then if.
Its not going to be a nexus I believe it will be branded as the droid RAZR X and will be realesed with 4.2.2 in q1.Google should have 4.2.2 by then.
I'm just skeptical about it being a real 'nexus' device because hasn't every Motorola phone been only sold by Verizon? Idk if moto and Verizon have a contract but since Google owns Motorola anyone would assume they would make their devices but idk

No, Motorola has sold phones on other carriers. For example, I owned a Motorola Photon on Sprint myself.
However, I think this whole rumor is around some "X" phone by Google and Motorola that _won't_ be a Nexus and _will_ be carried exclusively by Verizon. I'll see if I can find a link...
This has nothing to do with the Nexus 4 and since a lot of users still haven't even received theirs yet, we are long way from discussing this phone's successor in here.
I've already moved one of these to Android General if you would like to continue the discussion there.

Good, with any luck it'll work for us without any more work than build.prop mods and removing NFC.apk.
Even better is when it finally is released Moto will also release the 4.2.2 kernel source which SHOULD be a 3.4 kernel.
As far as 4.2.2 is concerned, all I really care about is Moto's kernel source and if that'll help out Epinter and the rest gang to get us pure AOSP....not even for AOSPA. I'd just like to run the actual Android OS w\o any carrier bs or it being CM or whatever -- I never have :crying:.
