is there way how to get back to ICS...???
any official statement from motorola that after update JB can't back to ICS...?

No, it's not possible. After you have updated you can't go back.

on ICS can used GSM (not in US), how about on JB? GSM (data-call) can work?

You could load a ics based rom that uses a kexec kernel with safestrap or boot manager, but (I could be wrong) I believe the locked bootloader prevents downgrading your actual system kernel

Jesus, this question gets asked every other day. Please learn how to use the search bar. No, you cannot downgrade from JB, welcome to the wonderful world of locked bootloaders.

Thank you. Seriously people learn to search and learn to read. IT SAYS WHEN YOU FLASHED IT THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO GO BACK TO ICS, SO DONT FN ASK AND ASK AND ASK AND ASK AFTER YOU DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you were not sure about the upgrade, then why did you do it in the first place? Also, why the hell do you want to go back anyways, it actually makes the phone work properly. No more random Wifi glitching forcing you to reboot to go back on Wifi, no more issues toggling between wifi and 4g, better battery life, faster phone, I even got better incomming call clarity. But you know I should go back to ICS for some bullet to the head reasoning!

Because wanting to revert your phone to a previously support system is considered hacking.... riiiight.

Not to argue, but I'm experiencing my maxx on JB a whole hell of a lot slower than ICS... working properly? I don't think so... unless regular freezing and crashing/rebooting is what you're referring to.
btw, it was a complete, regrettable accident when I accidently pressed "install" on the constant incessant request to install the update it automatically downloaded to my phone. never asked for that to happen either.
So, perhaps if we just simply root JB, remove all the numerous apps that we don't use, then it should "work properly"? anyone know what what I'm saying?

I'm also curious, what are people complaining about? I've had my screen on for the last 4 hours customizing, playing with and generally enjoying ICS. I've yet to experience any issues whatsoever...? Genuinely wondering what problems people are having? Why would they put the ICS release candidate on their staging/soak server if it was riddled with bugs?
Hummmm
Have you people really used ICS I think its horrible even if they do get it working on these phones it still sucks! Just make the battery last a month on one charge and connect to any wi-fi without having to log in, and make apps shut off when you exit out of them. That's all we want out of our phones right??? We can only dream about having phones that work right there will always be someone with an issue with their phone as long as we are getting phones that do all these great things!! Sorry my little rant i'm just done hearing everyone saying when is ICS coming to our phones!! Everyone knows when they do release it thousands will install and instantly start having issues so then another update and another it will never end! How many phones that are out work perfectly? I probably wont even update to ICS when it comes I like the way my phone works now and know where everything is! If you want ICS just install a different launcher done!!
Back in February, everyone was screaming for ICS on their Asus Transformer. Now, the majority of people wished they never got it because it has caused nothing but grief for many (not all) owners. (lockups, random reboots, and general instability).

That app won't run on any "leak." It only works if you are currently ON the update path. As soon as you leave the latest OTA (.181) you are technically off the update path.
As quite a few of you know, the .75 leak could fastboot back. Well the 2 latest leaks .84 and .85 absolutely CANNOT fastboot back to any previous version. Once you're on those leaks, you're on them.
There is of course speculation that once the official ICS comes out, we will all be able to get back on it and be on the proper update path. However, this is obviously just an assumption and is not 100% promised.
So let me stress again, if you install the .84 or .85 leak, you are OFF the update path for the time being.
If you DO or have already installed one of these leaks. I suggest flashing the "CWR On Boot" zip and making a nand backup. That way at least if something happens, you can restore your nand backup and be good to go.

What the op is saying is that the app won't even let you pick servers. Has nothing to do with being on the wrong version to pull an update the app never gets that far. It worked on .75 I tried it before. But on .84 it won't do ****. I agree with the op Motorola probably has found a way to block the app for now. I'm sure an updated version will come out that fixes this.

cheesecake is an app to connect to Moto's servers to DL test builds. It's where we got the black hole known as the .84/.85 builds from. It's dangerous to your phone, your family and your right testicle.

Honestly, that is hard to tell. But usually remarks like these snow-ball into fights, spitting profanities at each other and eventually bans. It is wise to avoid writing such things.

It's an app that allows you to connect directly to the Motorola portal to download the ROMs they're working on.
Some of our forum members "Know a dude, that's playing another dude, that works with the dude at Motorola" and his getting the ROMs to us so this community can do the real work.
I assume they're much like the Apple/Foxconn employees, afraid for their lives if anything leaks and ties them back to him/her.
So we don't talk about cheesecake for that reason. They say it's because people will brick their phone and then expect help, which is true -
Idiots will "idiot" all day long. But that's their problem. Let them flash it, break it and get stuck for good. They won't do it anymore. I can promise you that.

On the .75 leak it wouldn't work either. Fastbooted back to .173 and it worked. You have to be on the update path in order for it to work. I've messed around with it enough.

You should back up your data, boot into stock recovery or if you're using custom recovery (cwm/bootmenu) and do a factory wipe. It's painful as you'll have to set up your phone again from scratch but it will fix most of your issues with apps crashing.

Has Verizon or Moto replaced your phone?

I have had many lengthy discussions over the last few weeks with verizon customer support. My intent has been to have them swap my ICS upgraded razr maxx for an non upgraded one. I have not had any luck.
Have you? What tactics/facts supported your needs for the swap? The phone is non functional for my needs now, but verizon wont seem to agree with me.

People need to realize that with you cannot go back to GB from ICS IF you updated your phone with an ICS version >= .8x. Once you have flashed that, you are forever on ICS. This is due to a new bootloader being put onto the RAZR. There is no going back to GB once you've update to ICS version .8x or greater.
Go to one of those used cell shops, they can do it usually, it's how they fix bricked phones, they usually have the Dev software required to do it

Having to use a widget to switch to 3g after every reboot with only 3 clicks is far from locking onto a particular data connection.
By the sounds of it you purchased your phone with the ics upgrade on it (being you've never used the gingerbread keyboard), so you really wouldn't understand how wonderful this phone use to be.

First, I've owned the phone since it was released.
Second, If clicking a widget and finding a better alternative to the mediocre stock keyboard is too much trouble to you, then I realize trying to help you is fruitless. Good luck in your quest to get Verizon to give you a new phone because you want the Gingerbread keyboard back, can't figure out how to get Flash working, and don't want to use a widget to disable 4G.

First: You expect me to believe you have no experience with the RAZR GB keyboard if you've owned it since its release?
Second: Are you truly claiming that you have the ability to stream embedded flash videos, off of websites, with your DROID RAZR on the stock Verizon ICS release? If so, you have one unique RAZR, as you'd be the only one with the ability to do so.. Adobe Flash streams do not work on our phone with the update... visit the Google Play store and read the RAZR comments on Adobe... It's broken.
Third: If you are the type of consumer that is comfortable with needing to adapt and use alternative methods to use your purchased products as they are intended and advertised, then you are of a unique breed.
I appreciate and expect merchandise to operate as advertised.. I like the items I purchase to remain fully functional.
I haven't even mentioned the issues with the battery, but I'm sure you'd disagree there is anything wrong with cutting down the life of a battery by 40%.. Got an app for that?
Now you battery doesn't work either. ....Keep going. You're almost up to a legitimate reason for a new phone.

Did I say it didn't work? Or did I say it wasn't working as it was before the update?
He probably likes alternative keyboards so wouldn't touch stock, i hate swipe and like the stock ics keyboard.
My friend uses better kb or w/e, there are a few ppl that claim to have flash working on some websites.
And on stock ics my phone chewed through battery.
So root it and use a different cpu governor which will fix it. Custom roms will eventually (they might already) have a 3/4g toggle.
Motorola's ics updates are mostly fine, you should have read the problems ppl were having.
So you can't complain
Nothing isn't perfect, and i wouldn't expect stock to be as good as this, if flash worked fine, this would be one of the few phones i'd recommend to anyone AND it will not require they come see me to "set there phone up"

I'm on Telstra in Australia and when I updated to ICS the radio improved out of sight. Reception and signal strength is noticeably better, and that annoying "invalid sim card" message stopped.

I want to return to GB because now on ICS it doesn't find any update for the final version of ICS when I'm searching for update, while others in my country have already the final one

Unfortunately, you can't. This is due to the signed bootloader version. When we all upgraded to ICS to changed the bootloader signature to a higher number than GB. From what I understand if you try to, it will either softbrick you or will simply fail.
I'm interested to know more about your situation, are you on a custom ROM or anything? Typically if the phone won't update, you somehow found a way off the upgrade path.
Also, disregard that guy who yelled at you. I know we all have heard this downgrade issue about 1000 times but those of us who regularly post and help people don't condone yelling at people.

Thanks for your help

Unlocked? or rooted? Two different things.
Only way to be unlocked is too have gotten one of the very rare developer edition razrs.
Other than that, rooted, you still have a locked, encrypted bootloader. Simply put you are locked with the ics kernel, and can't go back to stock gingerbread.
