Any speculation as to whether this will be the final update for the Razr? Or will there possibly be a 4.2 update in the future? If this is it, should we assume VZW and/or Motorola will push updates to fix any bugs in this 4.1.2 update? Just curious... I'm running JB for now, but I have a replacement phone on its way that will be loaded with ICS. I'm wondering whether I should stick with ICS until I get another OTA update prompt or just update manually. Either way, I intend to root first and use Matt's instructions to keep root. Any thoughts?

Best to wait for 4.2 and JB kernel. or run an ICS ROM for now and when the JB ones have been corrected via this update (flash, BT, wifi) I know Phandroid devs. will be using this ota to fix some of the current JB rom issues. so expect some better roms around the corner.

Will they actually replace the phone because they messed up and leaked a build?

I got a replacement for another issue, not because of the update. Killing two birds with one stone, hopefully.

Wizzed is fine if you like Touch Wiz. I am a blur fan.

I like Blur also, but i find Wiz is a bit more of a refined look. just my thoughts.

Ahh, ok. Did yours randomly die? mine did after a month. current one has no issues though.

I've read people are having issues with BT/wifi, etc., but mine is all working fine. But, is there any reasonable expectation that we'll even get 4.2? That's what I'm wondering. And from what I've read, this update is a JB kernel. Of course I could be wrong...

You can not revert JB to ICS using Matt's util. This has been stated a few times and is in the OP. Once you take this build, there is no going back. The security was updated again (although I don't know why...idiots). Nonetheless, you can't downgrade.

Mine had screen issues, black spots behind the screen. A minor annoyance really, but a defect nonetheless. I've had 3 Razr's now, soon to be 4, and they've all had this issue. My first one got so bad it actually started showing a black spot all the time, and it even showed up in my pictures.

Ok, i wasn't positive.

Can someone confirm if the camcorder and video playback is borked in this build? It sure is for me...

That is the nature of these phones... that's just how the screen is placed inside the phone. Micro dust particles trapping air inside... i used a LECIA DX 4000 microscope and looked at it.

Confirming, this update is running on a new kernel. Can't speak on whether it's ICS or JB, but it is a different kernel than ICS 211.

Yeah, I havent had any issues either. As far as OTA 4.2... No. Via ROM devs.... Yes.

new build... new kernel. but at that i think it is still an ICS kernel. if the file name ends with .215 then it is a new kernel as .215 was the last one relased

Camcorder and video playback work fine. I've yet to find anything wrong with this build. Everything is running smooth and quick. I also discovered you can snap stills while recording video, and that feature works smoothly as well.

I have successfully recorded and played video.
I have no issue with picture taking or flash for the camera.

There is also a nifty little option there to send pics and videos to a TV (I have a google TV). This works similar to the function on the updated Youtube app- that send vids to TV (that can display).

Leave it to motorola to unnecessarily up the security for what should be a fairly minor update.

i found out a few days before the OTA that it was in the ics build as well

Can you post the version of the kernel? I thought I read somewhere that it was the same kernel that we got on Bionic with our ICS release. Meaning I believe it's still an ICS kernel, albeit newer than your ICS build.

My BT says it works and is connected but doesnt actually play through the BT headset I have. So I am guessing this is what I have heard regarding JB BT issues and its in this leaked version also.... At least in my phone, it is not functioning correctly now.

Thanks guys. I'm stuck then. I've tried wiping data, cache, and reinstalling the leak and I still don't have video playback or camcorder. Any other ideas?
