ICS Out game, When do you think it will happen by?

When will the latest date for ICS be on the Bionic

I hope it doesn't see the light of day for the Bionic UNLESS it works as reliably as 5.9.902. Am in no mood to revisit the sorts of issues we had with the initial OS.

Was it the OS itself that was the problem or just sort of the "drivers" so to speak that dealt with data reception?

I would think if they knew how to fix the problem with 902 that they would keep those fixes in with ICS.

It seemed that 3G worked very well and 4G worked pretty well with a few problems. The big issue was switching from 3G to 4G and 4G to 3G. They were very optimistic about it working ... and it simply didn't. Their testing before deployment seemed abysmal. If I had ever released anything like that I would simply be ashamed.

Predicting ICS stability ... take out a coin and flip it.

I think you might be taking too much for granted. :) Big upgrades usually have at least a few gotchas. Geez, look at Apple's history with point-zero OS releases. Problems galore. Like I said (in so many words), don't expect ICS to be trouble-free.

Oh I don't, but if it truly does allow us to uninstall bloatware, I will take a few glitches for a short while.

bloatware is not a big concern of mine. I don't think it is appropriate that we can't remove BW w/o rooting, but I'm not losing sleep over it. And the "glitches" you mentioned--that all depends on the nature of the glitches. If ICS causes my phone to reboot, drop calls, get lousy data service, then I will be mightily pissed off. :)

Well the following thought it was better to be late then never:

Alex Wekell, beefyy, dfib, Duckster, oildalemonkey



Looks like they were wrong.

And since the Razr is getting it we cannot be to far behind.

Maybe they desided to roll the update we were going to be testing, in with the ICS update.

And maybe we will figure out how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsy pop.
