I received the update at 5 am est. Haven't notice anything different except for the keyboard not popping up when going to messages.

Too bad they couldn't have wrapped these fixes into a 2.3 rollout. These bug fixes seem pretty trivial...

Is this the update that is going to "block" tethering like the update to the TBolt?

Not sure. I wont be surprised if they had something hidden within the update that would disable it. Dont take my word for it tho, this is only my opinion lol
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App

Well, I do like the fact that my keyboard won't pop up in messenging. Other than that, its no good to me. I can get app updates, don't care about the call stuff, and yah, they probably have some more bloat ware. NO THANK YOU.
Hey Tylerfixer, can you snag the keyboard fix, and work that into your decrap 2.1? Could someone get the code for that fix?

I agree. Its a useless update lmao

Did you get tether working? I don't think anybody else has, also TheCubed working with them to get it going on LG Revo..
**Update available now**

I've got it working on my Win 7 ride. Its slow as snot, but it works. Also works on my IPAD, NOOK and a couple of other devices. It took me forever, but I did get it to work. I can't wait for TheCubed's version, I'm sure it will be much easier to use.

My update failed, keeps going into recovery and can't figure out where it downloads or how to avoid it. Any one else get this?

@ Lightning - Clockwork recovery gave me the same thing...It blocked it from installing.
Rebooted and came up like normal afte saying the install failed... I'm new to all this so I'm sure this is old news for the veterans here - but Clockwork recovery blocks OTA updates. I don't mind when it comes to minor updates such as this - But I'm wondering if I'm going to have to wait for an updated rooted Revo 2.3 ROM in order for me to experience the GINGERLUV??
@ drt054 - WIFI tethering works just fine on my revo. Downloaded the 3.1 beta2 google apk (right here in these forums)
Installed clean - fired up the app and noticed that I would get intermittent connection... Then I turned on Access-control and once I granted permissions to the connection everything went like butter. 4G speeds off the laptop no problem!

So I take it that CM7 is running the 2.3 kernel? I know TheCubed is working his wizardry on it for the revo. Saw the progress videos.. I'm excited!

Update Fails, stock unrooted!
When I attempted to update 2 or 3 times I got the following error: "Device runs out of memory."
Is this update file saving to internal phone memory that you need root access to save to??? The file is 69.5MB and all of the 3 storage locations have over 700 MB of remaining storage.
After the 2nd or Third time it now tells me that there is "no new software update available."
Anyone else having trouble???

I'm getting the same "out of memory" error. I have plenty of space as well, so not sure what the problem is.
I'm rooted w/o clockwork mod installed.

Google chrome on AOKP ROM

Has anyone using this ROM been able to get google chrome to work? I can install and open the app just fine but when I go to request a webpage, it can resolve websites just fine and the loading bar moves along but nothing ever displays. Does this happen with anyone else?
Sent from my XT894 using xda premium

Same thing for me. Seems like it works perfect other than the fact that the website doesn't actually display.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

Exactly!
Exactly! The interface looks really clean and simple. And it appears that the pages load very quick. Just the one little problem of not seeing anything.

Haven't tried this on the D4, but from other devices, Chrome doesn't work because hardware acceleration doesn't work yet. I imagine once we get custom kernels (if that RAZR exploit pans out) or once we get an OTA to ICS and get a 3.0 kernel, this will be resolved.

And fastboot files. That will definitely speed development up knowing you have an unbricking method.

I'm curious what RAZR exploit your talking about, as I haven't heard anything about custom kernels on RAZR or Droid 4.

Looks like it is a hardware thing, so if it works it should work for the Bionic, RAZR, and Droid 4!

[Q] After 6.7.2233 ICS Flash My Music/Gallery Not working

So, I flashed the ICS 6.7.2233 last night, all works well except the media functions i.e My Gallery and My Music. Suspect the database didnt update properly.
I attempted to re-flash, but the stock recovery fails. I do have a nandroid of
.905 and was wondering if the device was restored would it be possible to re-flash?
Thanks.. Eddie

Don't reflash
You end up ZFX'ing to unbrick

Read the first article on the page.

All Fixed..
Fzx'd back to stock .902 took the OTA to .905 and flashed the .2233.. This thing ROCK's. It's like having a new phone. Have been running it for 2 days without any issues. Faster, Cleaner and so far it all works.
Rooted with no issues..
Best, Eddie

I got the files from Droidhive

I agree! It is like having a new phone! Literally all aspect performance, visual, and experience is better. And i got a 2900 on benchmark without root.

I have to agree. I put the leak on my droid 4 and still had data issues. Would lose signal and not come back until reboot. Soon as i got this bionic i went straight to ics 2233 leak. This phone is amazing running ics. Flawless connectivity, responsive as hell and just straight up eye candy lol

Glad you resolved your issue! This ICS does rock! I havent put my phone down yet, and yeah its like a whole new phone! This is how the bionic should have been out the box!.... lol

Yeah. I just finished setting up again after flashing. I've noticed a few back end things that didn't work before now seem to be working. For instance, before if I did a check for update it would say check for system update is not available. Now I get the usual no update necessary message. Other than that it seems the same.

Honestly, there's not much difference and if you're happy on 2233, I'd stay there. I'll continue to flash each new leak out of curiosity. A final build should be appearing in the next few weeks, because Motorola has early Q3 as there expected release which only gives them until mid-August at the latest to finalize, test, and gain approval for the update.

I wonder if there will be any differences in the official ICS release and the leaked .2233? Honestly i havent found anything wrong with 2233 yet aside from recovering a nandroid backup of it.

Mostly the issues I have found include things in Motoblur apps or backend stuff (such as the missing System Updates I mentioned earlier, Social Gallery not allowing you to add accounts, and the Device Setup wizard force closes after the initial run through), and I believe some of this stuff has been purposely disabled for these "test" builds. I also think HDCP has yet to be enabled, as running Hulu Plus in webtop mode gave me a black screen that said HDMI output has been disabled. Two of those four things are now fixed in 229, and I'm going to test Hulu Plus in about an hour. It is very close to being a done deal for sure. I would expect a new leak or two in the next two weeks with all these issues ironed out, followed shortly by news of a soak test in late-July, and a final release the first week of August. But that's all speculation on my part.

Did you try after a factory reset on 2233? Mine were there and working when upgraded from 905, but I did a factory reset and then it kept trying to add but gave me an error that read something along the lines of this has been disabled for this account. It works fine on 229.

I haven't noticed a lot of changes either, overall since all i noticed was the updated kernel and lower os resource usage.

I havent had to do a factory reset yet, and wont do it unless i have to... i am so tired of re-installing my apps and reorganizing the home screens.... lol

Titanium backup.

Yeah i hate having everything backed up in titanium cause then it takes up extra space... lol. And i always forget to go back and delete the backup after i reinstall everything. Plus its more the remembering all my settings and how i had everything arranged that annoys me.... lol

Not sure why, but after flashing to .902 and updating several times on .2233, I went back to .902 to get this new leak on, and promptly got stuck on the dual core logo. I reflashed .902 -- it went perfectly both times -- but got stuck on the big red dot again. Left it alone for almost three hours, and all it did was kill my battery.
Any idea why the exact same .902 file and procedure that I used many times before would suddenly decide to crap out on me?

Can I just flash this update over the 2233 or do I have to go back to 905 first?

I believe you have to go back to .905 first, but i could be wrong... i havent tried it yet.

Yes you have to go back to .902 first. Just like moving to .2231 or 33.

Stay on .905

I am planning to upgrade to a new phone by year's end. Is it worth while to flash to. 232 just to be on ICS? Does it perform better than eclipse 3.0? I suppose that I have to reroot afterwards?,

I've been running since it came out and its like night and day compared to stock blurred gingerbread. You don't need to re root just use voodoo ota root keeper from the play store to back up su binary then update to 232 and restore su binary. Motorola did a nice job with blur in ics. Its very close to a stock aosp experience. Also you can use safe strap to flash versions of cm9 and aokp for the ics leaks, which are fully functional. I definitely think its worth it. Once the ota comes out, its easy to fxz back to 905 and take the ota.

I didn't like ICS due to adobe discontinuing Mobile flash. I use my phone to watch online videos and hook it up to the tv so I'm pretty disappointed with their decision. I understand the whole html5 argument, but html5 is still a few years from becoming standard. I don't see it happening until html5 has developmental tools similar to what flash has.

I did not think to consider that. Thanks.

I'm running ICS Leak 6.7.230 and Flash works perfectly. I don't know what there is to be concerned about.

How do the ICS leaks compare to Eclipse 3 in terms of wireless reception and battery life?

Just kill the cat already and try it? not as if you can't FXZ and nand restore.

Isn't Flash not available from the play store, for those who migrate to ICS leaked ROMs?

Flash was removed a few weeks ago from Google play. If you have the direct link, you can access it, but it won't come up in a search and it wasn't showing under my apps for me. I do a lot of online video with my phone so flash is necessary. Thanks to the HDMI port, I hook it up to the tv at night and turn on some justin.tv, whom is full of crap in their reasons why they don't have a streaming app for Android, even though another developer had an unofficial one.

As for Flash. It will not work in Chrome for me. It does however work in the built in browser and possibly Opera.

It won't work with chrome, but it also wouldn't work in Firefox, dolphin, or the stock browser for me. The closest I was able to get it working was being able to hear the audio but not seeing the video.

Thats odd. Installed the flash player, opened the stock browser and works great on .232
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda app-developers app

With the same ROM, why are there variations in fucntionality of Flash?

My guess would be is the same reason some bionics on the leak are clocked at 1.2mhz while others are only 1. I don't think anyone knows, its just the way it is unfortunately.
