Atrix 4g soak test 1/15/13 - Motorola Photon 4G

A lot of at&t atrixs users are reciving an email from motorola for a soak test.
Maybe this is a good news for all of us. OR a big scam...we will see.
Take a look here:

interesting. is there anything about this on punit soni's g+ page? he finally blocked me after relentless questions and bashing of motorola as a company.

I just ask in punit sony g+...but as always...no respond!...
I think we have to wait for 3 to 5 days and see if motofail roll uot and update.
from the (M)ATRIX...

I can confirm I received an email from "[email protected] via surveymonkey.com" about participating in the test. If it is a scam they now have my IMEI and probably marked me for death by an elite zombie alien task force. So I am hoping it is for real

It's most likely just a GB update. I wouldn't get hopes up for ICS or JB. I'm interested to see what it will do (if anything) for the bootloaders.

Yeah it doesnt hurt.. BUT. After 9 months of ICS update promises, only to get slapped in the face. With a public statement of only releasing maintenance updates.. I don't know how much there is to hope for. Because if they release ICS or JB to the Atrix, they'll have to do it for the Photon and Electrify as well.

Huzzah! Where'd that come from?
EDIT: Oops, nevermind! HTC it seems. So odd, they release the source code to their kernel, but continue to develop new methods to lock their devices. Strange bunch of cookies over there at HTC.

What is so odd about that? The GPL has required that they release the source code, it's been a long time coming. That honestly has nothing to do with them continuing to lock their devices, which actually is a liability concern for them.

I've been harrasing the HTC legal team for about 3 weeks now for it. I would like to think some of the reason was me... however... it is probably just coincidence.

I would say it helped and even if it didnt....thanks for doing it!!!! I am so tired of them releasing things for other phones and leaving the slide out. They released the kernel source for several phones yesterday and left the slide out. I actually planned on trying to e-mail them today but they pulled a fast one and released the source late last night or early this morning.
Woooooo ! That is all.

ICS really until start of July

Just checked motorola's forum and one of the motorola's staff answered to a question that "Upgrade should be available before the start of July, but delays are possible."
I hope it is really so near...
see here https://forums.motorola.com/posts/53dca74967
delays are possible
Moto, delays? You are more than 6 months behind stupid
They are only saying that it's possible. If the servers get hacked, there's a delay. If the power goes out and some data gets lost, there's a delay. Right now it seems they are ready to release, but it is possible that something out of their control may happen.

How do you know that was a Motorola Employee?
Furthermore, that was specifically in response to a question about ICS in India. That may or may not be accurate for the rest of the world.
First off he's asking about ICS India which doesn't have the same ETA as USA/Canada. Second, I don't go on the motorola forums ever but how exactly do you know that the "servbotx" user works at moto? I see no indication they're a moderator or administrator of the forum so how can you verify what he/she is saying? Could just be an troll/random guesswork

First off - I am from EMEA so I don't care about USA/Canada from this point of view.
Second, I am visiting moto's forum quite long and although moto's forums are technically bad and don't have visible user status, I know that servbotx IS a forum staff...
I just posted what I found on the official forum and we all will see if it was or wasn't true (and to be honest is I believe what he says much more than some bullshits about the ics on this forum...) - in a nutshell - you don't have to believe it if you don't want to... ;-)
I would not be so optimistic, anyway let's hope there will not be anymore delays

If you have significant amount of code being lost(more than 2 hours of work) because of power outages you are doing software development very wrong.

something to think about??

NOW verizon made a comment in one of the replies, they won't unlock due to software clitches on the phone. Do you think MAYBE? after the update they MIGHT? let unlock again.Just a little food for thought??
I hope your right, maybe that's the reason for a newer hboot with this update
Can you attach the response? Copy pasta?

At least VZW has finally given some sort of explanation instead of the non-response we've been getting. I hope HTCdev unlock comes along with it.

CM10.2 Release!

Just saw that the CM crew already has a 10.2 (Android 4.3) release out. I wonder how long it will take to get it on our phone? In the release post on G+ it says Qualcom devices come second after the Nexus devices. Can't wait

Was a joke... Calm down. I couldn't find a mention about it anywhere, and as far as I'm concerned CM hasn't even released 10.2 yet. At least not a halfway stable release.
No such thing as 4.3, that's the joke.
What's the deal with folks asking for updates all the time, even for roms that really have no bugs people want an update. Maybe the developers should slowly fix problems so we can get daily updates and people will think developers are "working" on things.

No disrespect man. It was disbelief. They already have a Nexus 10.2 build out? And it's been ported to the DNA. All in the mater of a couple days seems... unbelievable. But hey, shout out to those developers.
I have plenty of these forms to go around.. my guess is this thread needs closed.. about done with XDA in general... it's getting to where you can't say anything at all.. positive or negative...

I'm fine with joking but I really don't appreciate when I'm called, intentionally or not, a liar. I think what I do here deserves at least that much respect, don't call me a liar. The disrespect here is a main reason I had originally planned to not release anything here.

Please check this link to see when it will start being pushed:

As of this post, it is still in "Certification". No-one will receive the update until it changes to "Push to Customer".
I had no idea that HTC has a website for update status.
There has been a delay we were supposed to have the update pushed today, but of course carriers are cooking bloatware on the update so it was been delayed for at least 2 weeks more

Page does reflect the change now. Probably doesn't update but every so often especially since its the carrier pushing the OTA. Someone in the sprint forum said a friend with TMO was getting the update as well about 20 minutes ago.

If you're S_Off/unlocked just convert it to Dev, International, or GPe. Problem solved.
Can't wait for the OTA zip to get posted. (Will post if I get the update, obviously...)

I would, but my phone craps out far too often. I think I will wait for the OTA to be available, but I do know I will probably a dev edition or something with wifi calling without bloat, but thanks for the suggestion.
fwiw: http://www.htc.com/us/go/htc-software-updates/ is now updated with Sprint, "Complete."
I've heard rumor that some folks on T-Mob have gotten the update, but no-one has been able to verify or provide proof as of yet, and the update site has not been updated to reflect it if it is true.
