Real racing 3 is not supported on the Bionic but I got it working pretty nice! You just need root. Get Market Helper "http://codekiem.com/2013/02/13/market-helper/", it allows you to make your device look like another phone without the risk of messing with the build prop. Follow the instructions to make it look like a S3. Now at least on mine this did not trick the market app one my phone. But if you find google play on your browser it does work. Download the RR3 and install it.
Now at this point if you open it the graphics look pretty weird, they cars look like mirrors and the rims flash as they spin. To fix this go to google play (you can use the app for this) and find the app called real racing 3 graphics. Open it and enable it, then set the graphics to medium. If you set it higher it gets pretty laggy and the mirrors do not quite work right anyway. Now the graphics will look pretty good!

The sound still has some problems, I turned the music off because it skips some. Some times you might hear some clicking sounds but it isn't that bad. Also it will sometimes force close right before starting a race. If that starts happening go into manage apps and find RR3 and clear its cache, this will fix the problem. I normally do this before playing everytime. Its annoying but what can we do? We aren't supported so we just have to be happy with what we have. ;)


I also found out Black ops zombies works great with the new update. Unlike originally all the textures are there now. Just make sure you don't have stuff running in the background or you might get some lag. Hope this helps!

Has anyone figured out a way to successfully overclock the Bionic running Jelly Bean 4.1.2? I'm rooted, but I'm unable to change the clock speed of my phone. When I had ICS, I used tweakerz and had it stable at 1390mhz, with a Quadrant rating of 3200.

Has anyone developed a clockable kernel yet for the official Jelly Bean release?

Thanks.

From what I see there is only one rom out for the new JB ota and its the blurry rom which is pretty good but does anyone know of any more and if so could u share a link or something I'm sort of a flashaholic when it comes to roms

4th Update 5/2/2013 - Found a bug... Nothing that would affect the overall functionality, but it could cause some users to think that their phone is successfully connected via USB debugging, when it really isn't.

Update: 5/2/2013 - Per user requests, adding link to VirtualBox download site on the original post.

3rd Update 5/1/2013 - I changed the code that 'finds' the exploit file to make sure it get executed successfully. It's now using the "PATH" environment to do this. This is more reliable than the actual Linux 'find' command I was using before. Also added some additional instructions to clarify some steps based on feedback from users. Finally, added code to detect if the network adapter is not configured correctly. It will alert the user to configure the network adapter properly in the VirtualBox application.

2nd Update 5/1/2013 - I added some lines to the script to stress the importance of pressing one of the three hardware buttons on the phone (Volume up, Volume Down, or Power) once the exploit has been executed. After discussing this with the author of the exploit, this is an important step to obtaining root.

UPDATE 5/1/2013 - New and improved .ova file. Contains improved logic in the exploit script to help with some of the problems that have been encountered by users.
If you've had trouble rooting, please download the new version and try again!

Hey folks, I'm a UNIX admin by profession, so I took the challenge over the weekend to come up with an easy root process for Bionic stock Jelly Bean, specifically for those who aren't familiar with Linux.

I decided to build a Linux VM under Oracle VirtualBox on my Windows PC. This seemed like the logical choice since VirtualBox is free, a relatively small download, is easy to install and it's easy to import VMs.

My first attempt was using CentOS Linux. It worked, but the file required for users to download was over 450MB... Back to the drawing board!

Started looking for very small Linux distros and found Tiny Core Linux. This worked well. The file required for download is 46MB.

Everything you need to root the Bionic is here and it is automatic. The process will walk you through connecting to the Samba file share, connecting the phone in USB debugging mode, and OF COURSE, it will run the process to root the phone.

Here are the steps:

1) Install Sun VirtualBox on your Windows PC.
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtu...-84980-Win.exe

Note: We've had one report that this file also works with VMWare Workstation and VMWare Player. If you don't want to install VirtualBox feel free try the file with VMWare.

2) Download the VirtualBox .ova file containing the Linux VM from one of the following links:
http://www.knite.net/Bionic/Root_Bio...20130501-4.ova

Root_Bionic_JB_20130501-4.ova

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/...7IdDetSvw&dl=1

3) Import the .ova file into VirtualBox. (Click "File" then "Import Appliance".)

4) Start the imported VM in VirtualBox (Click the big "Start" Button. It has a green arrow icon.)

5) Follow the instructions on the Linux console.

That should do it. If you need help I will be monitoring this thread.

I'm trying root my phone via Ubuntu. After I load the code and run it I get "run.sh: line 33: ./adb.linux: No such file or directory" any suggestions?

Hey guys....long time reader first post ever.....matter of fact I joined this forum really just to make this post.....

Thanks! I've got a rooted bionic running jb....after following your steps. ICS and voodoo root keeper from gingerbread days.

Ive watched my friends run through iPhones razrs and samsungs......as I chill with bionic....hiccups aside its worth it to me to enjoy slight temporary discomfort for a long term satisfaction of having unlimited 4g data with jb on a solid device.

Thanks y'all.....keep hackin
