Well, it seems that soon after I would get ICS on the Bionic, this phone may be retired. I will be due for a phone upgrade in December. Let's see what is on the shelf at that time.
or jello
may of 2013, plenty of time to learn gb till then.

Is it a coincidence that Android OSes use the same naming system as hurricanes? Both powerful, and they both sure know how to mess your %$*@ up :happy3:
See....from 2.0.1 to 2.2....2.2 was needed to make the Droid 1 a better phone performance wise. Which it did. And going from 2.1 to 2.2 was also a nice upgrade. From 2.1 to 2.2 made it a better phone performance wise.
How the RAZR performs now...ICS will be more for the features than performance. The hardware is alot better now than it was in 2009, early - mid 2010. Only thing ppl might be upset about it not having ICS. Going from my Droid 1 with 2.0.1 all the way to the RAZR with 2.3.6....with the Droid X1 in between...I'm confident in saying folks with a Bionic and RAZR can sit patient and wait for ICS. To me the wait is not that big a deal at this point in time. I didnt get the RAZR for OS updates or timely updates. I wouldnt have kept my G Nex for OS updates or timely updates. If the auto rotate slowness comes to the RAZR....they can keep ICS and work on it a lil bit longer IMO..
Dont try to fix what isnt broke. At the same time I know its a fine line between if your phone currently works fine, be happy vs. wanting the latest features with an OS update. I am curious to see what Moto does with ICS on the RAZR. Cuz they did a great job with GB on the RAZR.

Moto phones still get a bunch of bug fixes it seems, so even after ALL this wait, I'm pretty sure ICS isn't going to come bug free.. though, I could be wrong.
But man, that sucks. I figured the D4 and RAZR would at least have in the next month or two. Not when Android 4.5-5.0 is out. -_- Thank goodness we're able to get custom ROMs! :icon_ lala: My friends not into tech however will have to deal with an old OS unfortunately though for quite a while longer. Most are too scared to let me root their phones.

Yeah, pretty much what I expected. Motorola screwed me over one too many times, so I jumped ship a while back.
im done with Motorola also
im more flustered by the fact that i was told q1 or q2.
True. The treads will change from "WHEN IS ICS COMING?? :frown:" to "I GOT ICS!! :icon_ lala:" to "WHY DIDN'T THEY WAIT UNTIL ICS WAS PERFECTED!!
"fail
What exact features of ICS is everyone so impatient to get? I have the Razr and Gnex and honestly prefer the Razr. There's nothing about ICS that really stands out as a must have.
Also, I wouldn't be blaming moto on this one. Like others have mentioned, i'm sure part of the blame goes to Big Red.

I have the Droid4 and the GNex, and I can list some of the ICS features I miss on the D4:
Enhanced notification actions = I like that when you drop the list down from the top, you can swipe the ones away that you want to dismiss, and then select from the others.
Setup from the notification bar
Not having fixed icons to select from, you can have just the ones that apply as needed
grouping icons into folders.
I've had the GNex since it came out, and the D4 since it came out, so I have had more time recently on the GNex than the D4, but I owned the D2G and D3 before the GNex.

Sorry if i'm being stubborn here, I am not trying to argue... so keep that in mind. 
As far as swiping notifications away, I can do that by pressing the minus button next to the notifications on my razr.
Setup on the notification bar... yep you got me on this one, though I'm sure a mod could add this feature. stock, no.
fixed icons - you'll have to explain a bit further as I'm not completely grasping this.
grouping icons into folders - Drag an icon onto another icon and it creates a folder... keep dragging icons onto that folder and you can add more.
Again, even if some of these wouldn't be available on the stock OS they can be added via 3rd party apps. I'm just curious what ICS exclusives are so terribly missed for those that aren't running it yet. In my opinion, gingerbread on the Razr is one of the best stock OS's i've ever used on any android phone. They've also been good with coming out with incremental updates at a pretty decent pace.
Not putting down the GNex as I enjoy having both devices. However I'm just not seeing any game changing differences.
