some ICS info from Verizon: Software Update - Coming Soon!

and from Moto: Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich - Motorola Mobility, Inc. USA

Oh, the irony. I really wanted to watch those updated feature videos, but I can't on ICS because they are Flash!!I

Usually you can get around this by using a third party player like MX....

As with anything from VZW and Moto, I dont believe a damn thing until I see it with my own eyes.

gunner252 · Jun 22, 2012

I feel like deja vu... Hasn't Verizon said once before (not ICS related) that they'll release an update/phone when THEY'RE ready, regardless of what the mfgr says? Not trying to be a downer, just trying to remain realistic, so when we're all back here on Monday complaining about ICS not being rolled out, it doesn't surprise anyone.

EDIT - Nevermind... flame on....

Looks legit, I'm pretty excited. What happened to the soak tests? Thanks for the link.

Here you go then. This is from VZW and they only do this when it really is happening. Looks like Phandroid has been out droided on the news front today. I only say this since the news is almost old now

DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX - Ice Cream Sandwich

Added: I just now unfroze all my stock apps- just in case it is sooner than later

joshica · Jun 22, 2012

PhoneScoop also reports that it is being rolled out today OTA. Don't know exactly when but can't wait....I keep checking and nothing yet.

According to this PcMag article and SlashGear article.

PcMag- Verizon Rolls Out Ice Cream Sandwich to Droid Razr, Razr Maxx | News & Opinion | PCMag.com

Slash Gear- Verizon DROID RAZR Ice Cream Sandwich update goes live from today - SlashGear

Its about damn time!!

mikeso3691 · Jun 22, 2012

I hear this might be a test and everyone will get it the 27th if those that get it today have no problems

mikeso3691 · Jun 22, 2012

No flash support on ics?

SamMax · Jun 22, 2012

Nothing yet

Matt8296 · Jun 22, 2012

Sharondippity · Jun 22, 2012

NOW I'm getting excited. I was doing fine with the rumors, and now I am feeling very impatient. WHICH is NOT MY NATURE ha ha ha ha.

I love my phone already, so this is just gravy, getting ICS. Yippeee.:dancing2:

Perhaps you didn't see the link to Verizon's website saying the update is coming out today.

EDIT: Nevermind.

Just to let you know, especially if you've never been through a Verizon Android update, 99% of you will not see anything today. Verizon likes to send out updates at night when traffic is low. Some of you may wake up to the update notification this weekend. Most of you will not see it until this coming week. They take it slow to avoid network problems and to see how many people start reporting problems.

Good to know, so maybe we should turn our smart actions off if they disable data during the night.

Podivin · Jun 22, 2012

Actually you're not the first to mention it. It's been chatted about quite a bit in the ICS sticky at the top of the forum.

Edit: And now that the threads have been merged, people are looking at me and thinking 'what the heck is he talking about, this IS the ICS sticky at the top of the forum'.
Thanks guys (Kelmar, I'm looking at you) for making me look even dumber than usual.

This. That's how I got 4.0.4 for my Nexus; I got tired of stabbing the "Check Now" button the day it was supposedly released and found the update waiting for me the next morning.

And I also have to say... I've been through several Verizon rollouts and they will release the update when they are good and ready, regardless of what blogs state. If it starts happening today, great, but this isn't my first rodeo so I apologize for sounding pessimistic.

SO I want to put 211 on my wife's phone without root, is there a tried and true method out there?

I know my way around the phone...just haven't touched a Motorola in a while. Thanks Again!

Easiest way is to wait for the update to get pushed to the phone.
