Cruel ICS torture! - Motorola Droid RAZR

So I'm at work and the Droid RAZR on my demo phone bar pops up the notification for the ICS update.
I run the update and play for a few then get giddy thinking my Maxx should be good to go...
Run the update check and NOTHING. :-(
So now my stinking demo gets ICS but I can't. :-x

Lol that's messed up.
But you can get it
There's a copy of my guide in the RAZR development forums on how to manually update the OTA.
Lol demo phone be trollin

So I been getting the update notice on my Razr Maxx (see screenshot) Is this ICS? I am not a developer, I just cruise on the forum and mess with my phone. My maxx is rooted stock .173 No Bloat I haven't taken the update cause I am the no bloat setup might screw things up.

.181 is the newest GB version. So in short, no, it's not ICS.

Unroot, install update then you'll be ready ICS. If you want to just fast forward to ICS today you can use my guide posted in the development forums, posted by user streetmedic.

That is the update, remember moto names their updates as the old version of the OS so 181 is actually the 211 upgrade to ICS, if im somehow wrong then I really need clarification on the moto update stuff

But remember he said he's on .173 when he looked at the update. So its gb not ics.

6.16.203.XT912 & 6.16.204.XT912 ICS Build Leaks for Verizon Razr

Blur_Version.6.16.203.XT912.Verizon.en.US)Blur_Version.6.12.181.XT912.Verizon.en.US *
some notes2!SD card package 6.12.181-6.16.2038€@€J...P ZSverizon/spyder_vzw/cdma_spyder:2.3.6/6.5.1-167_DHD-14_M3-8/120308:user/release-keys
This is what was found over at droidrzr, there was another leak 6.14.79.XT912 but the one I'm talking about was last modified yesterday and it comes with the Color for Facebook app preinstalled & last but not least its ANDROID 4.0.4. Discuss away.
EDIT: This was confirmed to not be able to downgrade you, not even to gingerbread. But people were saying temple run works perfectly. Link is at the bottom but BE WARNED, NOT FASTBOOTABLE OR DOWNGRADEABLE. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.
EDIT 2: So this is a New Leak 6.16.204 found by fellow member mattlgroff. Still 4.0.4 and still not FASTBOOTABLE OR DOWNGRADEABLE.

This is kind of on the edge but I'm thinking this might be the OTA just because it says release keys and is packed with Color for Facebook.

Does this take a RAZR off the upgrade path, and can I flash stock recovery? Voodoo protect root?

I'm pretty sure at this point all ics leaks after 75 take you off the upgrade path. Being on 84 and not being able to go back to gingerbread is fine. But being in 84 and not being able to install this is not. If fastboot files are released then once the ota hits it looks like I will have to downgrade to 181 and accept newer version. I am really hoping one of our very talented devs can come up w a way to make it attempt to just update from 84 to this leak or an ota without the need to do all the other. Its clearly not easy due to how the process is setup to install from moto.
That's why I never jumped to ics when they leaked in the first place. Sorry to hear of your hassle

I choose it. Its my fault. Not sad as 84 runs awesome. But I assumed I could update to newer. Not concerned about going backwards. Hopefully someone can come up w something. I have it downloaded and ready to roll in case
Link is broken now apparently...
The 4.0.4 leak has been confirmed to be unfastbootable back to GB. It will strand you like the .84/.85 leaks, taking you off the update path with no way to return. The 4.0.3 leak (.79), on the other hand, is fastbootable back to GB so it's safe to play with like the .75 leak.
All of this has been confirmed by the devs @ Droidrzr.com.

Link is not broken guys. And yes, there's an update .203 blur.

Who else has rolled back to 181 from an ICS leak and can't stand it?

I've been on the 75 leak for months, and gotten so used to it that rolling back in hopes an official build would be released soon is now miserable... 181 is great GB wise (I ran the 75 leak before 181 was released). But I miss my ICS setup SOOO badly... It's only been a few hours, but good GOOGLY MOOGLY I miss ICS...

Depends on which leak he's running... 84+ are stuck with it for now. I used Matt's tool (modified RSD) to roll back. You can find the tool by searching here, or on droidrzr.com. If I weren't mobile, I'd post a link, but I'm out & about. If you can't find it, I'll post a link later.

ICS was great. Got my Maxx now so I'm happy about that. Moto Blur's Gingerbread isn't bad though, compared to other GB Roms (I didn't care for sense much). ICS will be here soon, I was patient enough to wait for my Maxx, so waiting for an update for it should be no problem.

Ok, first things first. ICS is coming down the pipe in a few days maybe a week or 2, depending on how the soak test goes. Why do you want to flash a GB OS mod when ICS will be here soon? If you flash to that I don't believe you'll get the OTA update.
Second, you'll want to have RSDLite installed on your machine with a safe, working copy of your stock rom. This can be found in about 50 places on these forums. The only catch is that when ICS rolls out, more than likely, you won't be able to go back to GB due to the boot loader being signed with a new version (all the posts you see about getting "unstuck" are speaking of that very problem).
I'll be more than happy to walk you through the process, but it just doesn't seem to be the wisest course of action with ICS so close.
Lemme know!

OTA Update from Leaked ICS build...

So I'm on the leaked .84 build of ICS. If/when the OTA update comes next week, what will I have to do? Will it prompt me to update? Will I have to roll back to stock Gingerbread to get it (and if so, how do I do that)?

You'd have to return to completely stock. Fastboot back to .181.

You are off the upgrade path so you'll need to use one of the unstuck methods to move to the ota version. Or wait for fast boot files. You cannot just flash back to gb. That will soft brick your device.

I don't know why you are still on 84 but once the ota drops you are going to have to use the same method we used to get off of 84 to get you flashed forward to the ota. Might as well flash 211 today to get familiar w it. You can't do anything else w 84 anyway,

ICS soon live for Verizon users

Currently I have an update for 3.6 something but it fails every time...I think because I removed some apps like Madden and other "non-deletable" apps. How do i fix this so I can apply ICS?

You could try a factory reset. If that doesn't work you may have to fastboot. I'm curious about the "3.6" , what did you mean? RAZR doesn't have a 3.6 version number.
