Just curious if this is something that may be fixed?

No. As of 1.0.2 there's no HDMI support. The phone doesn't even react when you plug in HDMI.
We won't have any real progress on Bionic ICS until Motorola officially puts ICS on it. It's amazing that it even works in the first place, as it's running from a Gingerbread kernel.
I see that ICS for the Droid 4 has been released - which I guess leaves only the Bionic that hasn't got the update. I wonder if anything in this leaked version will help resolve the final issues with ICS on the Bionic...???
Wont help us.

really?
yeah we won't get much out of the leaked ICS versions for other devices. We need an ICS kernel, which thanks to the wonderful locked bootloader won't happen until we have an official release (or leak) from Moto
*praying for a leak!*
If you want to take a look at the Droid 4 ICS leak you can download it here
I hope this happens soon..
Would really like to ICS this phone, been running it on my Xoom for a while.. Sweet
Am I missing something here? Just download the Axi0m 3-20 ICS ROM for the Bionic. Been running ICS for 4months now...only thing not working is video recording.

You're missing the fact that an ICS kernel hasn't even been built for the Bionic. That it's incredible that ICS ROMs even run on the Bionic in the first place because it's booting up with a Gingerbread kernel.
ICS has so many things overhauled under the hood, including new aspects of kernel operation that got stacked on top of what was already there. Because of the locked bootloader in the Bionic, the kernel cannot be modified.
Bionic ICS ROMs are running with limited functionality (such as hardware acceleration) because not everything in an ICS kernel is present.

Everything you just said is technically correct; however I have been running ICS alongside GB for over four months now and have not toggled back to my GB rom in over 2 months. ICS, even with it not being "official", just runs 5x better than GB.
This is pretty much the summary of how people feel who are running Android 4.x on their Bionics. I do not know anyone who has tried the Axi0m ICS roms and then switched back to GB except for people who REALLY have to have HD video recording.

I keep hearing this but what kind of games are you playing that freeze up? Only one of my 13 freeze up and it's not even that good.
I only played a couple games when I had ICS on my Bionic, but they performed significantly better than they did on GB.

Defender 2, drag racing, temple run, modern combat 3, cartoon wars and a few others.
Ordinarily it would be no big deal, but I got a new job with a lot more free time on my hands and these games are a great time killer. Lol

I had to switch back to GB due to constant data drops on all the ICS roms. Anyone find a decent ICS rom that doesn't have data drops?

Anything that requires graphics acceleration.
I switch back more for the bluetooth issues that we're still having w/ ICS over everything else. I use bluetooth devices quite regularly, and on ICS it's simply too buggy still for me to use it as a daily driver.

Wow, bluetooth? That's not dead yet huh? Just kidding
I'm curious though - what industry do you work in that requires the use of multiple Bluetooth devices? (This is a genuine question, I do not mean it sarcastically)
Thanks
If I use stock or liberty roms and everything is fine. I was traveling....if I switch towers both 3g and 4 g die. Now i am not traveling and it just randomly drops in ics. Sometimes reboot brings it back, some times airplane mode does....usually nothing does. I give up and go back to liberty....it runs stable. I tried forcing 3g in ics but it makes no difference. I tried the bionic tcp ap but it did not help. I upgraded the safe partition and radio from .902 to .905 no difference.Any one have any ideas?
All of our ICS roms do that.

3-20 axi0m supposedly doesn't have these issues.

Official ICS is leaked now. It is no longer an issue. Custom ROMs based on the leak should be coming out soon.
What ROM is everyone using?
I was running Axiom Annihilated, but with the soak test imminent, I am back stock.

wizzed bean
I have used and crashed many atimes, and wizzed bean has saved my battery's, and my life. jmod was great for a little, but was destroying my battery. Wizzed bean gets my battery through a full day with heavy use no prob. I just bought a extended battery, but it wont fit in the otterbox, but with wizzed bean i'll be find with the standard.
my bluetooth works fine on this, and i will sacrifice the video camera for these other features all day
Eclipse
I am using the Eclipse rom its pretty good

I am using the same ROM and love it. My only problem is I can't get the mobile hotspot to turn on. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Hi,
I've tried some ICS roms for the D3, SteelDroid, Liberty, Gummy .9, and Gummy 1.3. I also have minimoto for stability.
My question is if anyone knows the differences/has the changelog between Gummy .9 and 1.3...I had to flash twice to get calling working on 1.3, and wifi tether won't work, but *both* work on .9, and I was wondering if there were any convincing reasons to be more up-to-date than .9.
AFAIK, nothing ICS for D3 has video camera, and they're all *supposed* to have the same functionalities (Steel/Liberty/AOKP/CM9/Gummy), but the Gummy versions have been by far the smoothest, and .9 has what I want (Everything except front camera and video camera.)
Since the devs seem to have disappeared, I can't find the changelog I want...
Thanks!
Liberty 2 is Gingerbread. The camera works fine.
