They (Verizon),usually do that. They post an update status on their site but take forever to push it out.

I checked yesterday and found no update.

There are 905 update zips on here already. If your phone cant find the update just download and install through stock recovery.
I can't dl right now just wanted to make everyone aware.

I installed using my script to downgrade to 902 with full data in tact, updated to 905, 230, let the Android update script run on my apps, rooted with modified razrs edge (using SuperSU), and all is well. Very happy!
Any big changes from .2233?

Webtop is reported as finally working. Updated kernel. Looks like we are either looking at an OTA or darn close to it.
No go

I went 902 to 905 renamed zip to update.zip and it was a no go.
No need to rename it. But when you say "a no go" that's really not providing any information that people can help you with. Some versions of this put the update zip inside another zip with a crc file. If that's the version you have, you need to unzip the update zip and put that on your sdcard-ext. Then go into recovery and do the update from zip option.
Does this leak make all Bionics run at 1.2GHz, or are people like me with a certain revision processor not going to see that boost in performance?
Waiting official version hihihi

Same here, I don't trust myself doing this lol. Plus it sounds like they're close to the OTA version of ICS.

I'm running the version of ICS 6.7.229. What is the big changes seen in this one? It's only 1 version number increase.

Webtop
YES! Webtop works!:good:
Is there an easy way to install this without reverting to .902 then OTA .905 then finally "update" to .230.
If I'm already on .229 ICS leak can I not update without using RSD, OTA then Recovery?

Only 1 number really? 1 number can be major differences. You really can't tell anything by a number.
Just an FYI.
As I was preparing to sideload this and had just gotten a fresh build of 905 loaded, I rebooted and was greeted with a notification to download this update to my phone!
I am not on the soak test list nor am I registered for the Bionic on Motorola's support site. This means that this version will definitely be the OTA and will likely start pushing out to all users very shortly.
Hi, I just bought a Droid Bionic running 2.3.4 and I have been searching up how to root it. I figured out that I need the MotorolaOneClickRoot tool to do it, but every time I try to download it the link is dead. Can anyone give me a good link to download it and if possible, send me the steps to rooting it as I am still not good at this kind of stuff. Thanks in advance.

Google "House of Bionic"
Follow directions on site and you will be good.

I searched it up and I read a bunch of stuff on it. I know I sound stupid, but I'm still confused on what it is and he doesn't give steps for newbies on how to get it. He uses lots of terms that I don't know of. Also, when I read it I understood that it is not exactly what I was looking for. It's not really "rooting" the phone. Can anyone give me any clear instructions on how to "root" my Droid Bionic? I want to be able to get ICS on it. Thanks.
The house of bionic is several steps rolled into one so I will break apart for you.
1. You need to be on. 905
2. The first steps in the program will update you to. 246
3. Then it will root your phone on. 246
4. Then YOU will need to install SS 3.05
Install all the files he tells you and follow the prompts and you have rooted phone on ICS

The house won't root a 905 phone which is what the op was asking for. Search for motofail-gb. That will take care of it.

If you want ics then search for ota under settings. Its available for bionic now.

Also, for stock based VXLR is the latest updated rom and has very good battery life. For what it's worth mine is on Liquid ICS because I don't use it very often anymore.

Im running Liberty rom which i dont see on your list so im assuming this phone is way behind. Lol I havent picked it since I bought my D4 a couple years ago now. My x is still GB 2.3 and im so spoiled and used to ss that i havent a clue what to do or how to do it. If you or another member could tell me a bit about how i should go about upgrading my x i can figure the rest out. Thanks

The first thing to do is make sure your recovery is up to date. You can do that with the Rom manager app. It probably is the latest version but, it is better to check first. Then you have to decide if you want to go back to stock and take all the updates. The last update was a month or two ago and had a few security things. It's still GB. If you do then you'll be on a version ending in .621. After that you'll have to find compatible roms. The Liquid linked above is the most up to date version compatible with .621.
Good luck.

Thanks! I too just came across my DX which I had since launch, since it was with my car dock, Im gonna try to see what I can use it for as a companion to my pc...like maybe a desk mounted fan controller or temp monitor would be cool since I love to overclock (computers). Although its likely wishful thinking aside from some bluetooth tools from msi afterburner and such, its amazing the phone got up to ICS.
Might try it out later this week, last rom I had was one of the liberty 2.2.1 builds which were one of my fav at the time. Having gone from the DX, to rezound, and now note2. The DX was probably one of the best rom developed phones out there in its time aside from the nexus.

I was originally going to sell my DX but within a few days i decided to keep mine. New(different) toy for me to play with for a min. I've had the D4 since 2 weeks after it launch date so im super spoiled with Safestrap. Before i got my D4 I was up to date with roms and builds but sadly its still 2.3.

Is this ICS? I flashed 605 last night cause i read that if you flash 621 you cant go back. Does that even matter anymore? Should i just flash it?

Framaroot, yes, is an apk. install the apk, and choose the gimli option. it will tell you that root was sucessful, and to reboot your phone. after you reboot, install bootstrap from either dx, d2, or d3 (d3 is most up to date, no known updated recovery available?)
You are correct about the 605/621 sbf info. once you flash 621, you can't go back. there are ROMs for both versions. I don't have experience with 605, but yes, you can upgrade to ICS from 621. From what I've read, no one has successfully gotten a JB ROM (CM10, 10.1, or 10.2) to work. There are at least 2 ppl who are going to attempt a KK build. wether or not it boots and is functional, only time will tell.

Framaroot is an apk, place it on sd card, disconnect usb cable,
Go to menu>settings>apps> allow unknown sources
open file manager, click on framaroot, select install,
