That's the thing. There isn't any phone running it right now. HTC wouldn't even be able to get it to us if they wanted to.

4.06.605.3 was announces today
2.15.10.07.07&Chad's newest..Rom MIUI.US/CM7
When the source drops for this I will probably build a new kernel for it. It should be loads better than the port as it will be all Inc files. I'm not sure of Chad's schedule as I'd prefer to leave it to the master.

Miss CM7 from my D1. Wanted a D2G, but alas, locked up bootloader and no CM7 meant no love for me.
By the way, aren't we getting closer to that "promise" by Moto about unlocking the bootloaders by the end of the year?
Seems like that has gone by the wayside lately...big shock. Another broken Moto promise...SD card running on the Xoom sound familiar? 4gLTE via software patch that was downloadable? Need I go on? Sorry Moto, but your "promise credit" is no good.
Please devs, link to the nightlies as soon as available. I'm on board for flash-fest and test...lol.
Thanks in advance.

Stop whining about what Moto have not done about the bootloader. The droid 3 is not even 3 month old yet, and there is no way Moto will unlock it anytime soon. If they promised to unlock it, then they most likely will. Take a look at the Atrix for instance.

Atrix was an internal testing leak. It's possible that we'll never see it and I honestly don't think we ever will. Would it be nice? Yes of course, but we will still have plenty of mods to make this phone even better.
Wait. It's on the way.
Hope it can also improve the signal or maybe a better radio..!!!

I will probably be on narcotICS until CM7 is released.
i cannot wait for CM7 for droid 3 to come out. i am willing to be a beta tester if there are any needed.
I know I'm a bit late to this party, but Moto said they would unlock the bootloader on their phones SUBJECT TO CARRIER APPROVAL.
Does anyone here really think Big Red will allow such a thing? I personally, don't hold out much hope for that.

Verizon obviously doesn't give a **** about the bootloader, since it's going to be the first carrier to release the Galaxy Nexus. And now that Google owns motorola I'm sure it'll happen eventually, but it doesn't really matter.
I am very excited for CM7 (or CM9 for that matter)! I have only had the Droid Pro and now the Droid 3 so I have never been able to really take advantage of it.
Just wanted to know if ice cream sandwich port is possible or if anybody is working on it or planning on working on it

It's actually completely possible. The DInc got a full GB SDK port. The Nexus S has a ICS SDK port. The G2 (I believe by siulmagic) has an SDK port. It's just all those phones are unlocked completely. The 2nd-init used on Moto phones would be too hard and not worth the time for an only partly working port. With how close CM is, just wait for CM9 (CM8 would've been Honeycomb for all those about to ask "but i didn't c no cm 8 !?"). It will come. With time.
And is anybody working on a port for Jellybean or Key Lime Pie yet? How soon can we expect them?

Motorola just announced an ICS upgrade for the bionic via facebook (not sure if they intended to, theres a thread on rootzwiki about it. Some guy asked if it was going to get ICS, moto said yes, but they wouldn't disclose a time frame to expect it until Google had the final ICS build ready.
In other words, we should continue to see numerous testing builds on the servers, for months to come.

A lot of us would hope to have a developer based option up and running by the time that might be released. The current estimated dates would be no earlier than the RAZR gets ICS, so we're still months away from any official release.

Why do people assume the Razr will get ICS before the Bionic does? Just because they said the Razr will get it doesn't mean it will get it before the Bionic. I'd say its safe to say that any device being released with gingerbread will be updated to ICS. My guess would be to look for it in late winter/early spring.

The Nexus will be out before the month's end, and the source code will drop in the following 2-4 weeks. If someone built it from SDK, they'd have to start it all over again after the source drops.
ya but that means source wont drop till xmas and then by the time someone has a working build moto will be releasing there official build so it doesnt really do anything for us

It might be a fun exercise, and fun to play around with, but sdk ports are buggy and wont have the framework that really makes up ICS. It would basically GB + some ICS features/apps, since all we have access to is some apps and what they ask for

I hope no one is wasting time working on a port from a Software Development Kit (SDK) emulator "ROM" that is incomplete and lacking. SDK's are for app developers to test, not for ROMs to be be made.
Once the source hits....you'll have a better chance of getting ICS, AND a much better and complete ROM.
I really hope no one is working on an SDK port "ROM" for the D3.

Just to be clear, I'm not working on an ICS port from the SDK. Sorry :/
While I applaud jellydroid13's enthusiasm, there is still alot of work to be done getting the D3 to be more AOSP friendly. This includes working on getting the audio drivers working correctly, BT updated, overlays which don't have PBUNDERUN events every 30 seconds, camera routines to iron out, etc.
Fixing these issues in Gingerbread where our kernel matches up with the source, gives us a better chance at then migrating working source to a true ICS port later.
There is also a fairly sizable kernel hurdle to jump as well.
Just my 2-cents.
Hey guys,
Thanks to Paul O'Brien over at MoDaCo we now have a full system+recovery dump of the Galaxy Nexus running Ice Cream Sandwich.

Where did you hear this?
These are the files you need to port a device. They need to be altered severely to run on the incs. Extreme development knowledge is needed to make use of this. However a developer could grab bits and pieces from it if they have greater knowledge in one area than another.
The ics update will be coming to this and many other htc devices as stated yesterday to myself in a bell store by an htc rep.

Let me quote myself:
"Right now[...]"
You see? I'm talking about what they've said so far, but what'll happen in the future; sorry, I can't tell and therefore I won't do anything else then hope that HTC will give us an official update to 4.0.
But from what Google said when they showed 4.0, I think that it'll come to the IncS. Sometime.
And to your last part; no, they didn't.
"We’re continuing to assess our product portfolio, so stay tuned for more updates on device upgrades, timing and other details about HTC and Ice Cream Sandwich."
From the same link that I linked in my previous post. So, I'm fully aware of the fact that this only seems to be a preliminary statement from HTC.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...eak/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pulsenews. Unfortunately not 4.2.2 or at least a new radio.
