Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) is NOW Available for Download

Everybody.... ICS is now available for download via your Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX Via Settings, System Information and Checking for Updates.

Please let us know how you like it. Your device will need approximately 2 hours to complete the upgrade.

The download and installation lasted approx 45-55 minutes but the rest of the configuration lasted an hour or more thereafter to finalize system and software settings.

An example of how this is determined is application hangups and latency in processing for simple commands like executing a text message.

Please be patient. If it takes longer, let us know.

Enjoy

DutchOven88

Clearly... Since you know from direct experience and if somebody you know who has it said it took 10 minutes... its 354mb of data they must have a great connection

I got it this morning in Central New York...it's really very nice! I don't know if there was truth to the idea that they were rolling out according to MEID, but I did purchase my RAZR (not maxx) on the first day it was available to the public...But from where I am sitting I can finally and truthfully say that it is DEFINITELY rolling out...

suzqttro

Really? I just looked and it still says my phone is up to date? Still running gingerbread.

chipjonz

Yes, me too. It is frustrating that the website says there are two ways to get the download, when really there is only one. One of the ways it says to get the download is by OTA User Initiated, but to do that you have to hit the Check for Updates button and hope that it says Download Available, which up until now my phone has said "Your phone is up to date." So really, you have to just wait until they send out the update to you because there is no way to pull it down like they suggest. If it was available, you would think that they would notify you it was available before you had to hit the Update button.

RNett

Not available in Phoenix yet :smileysad:

smashogre

It took approximately an hour on my Razr and most of that was configuration, the d/l wasn't long. There is MUCH configuration after the initial reboot - then it was about 24 hours and my market apps updated - about 20 of them.

smashogre

One thing I'm certain of is that it's not based on region. Just seeing the reports of who got it and where they are makes that obvious.

genetixsamurai

my says check for update not available at this time ,I guess that means NO

gasorphone

From what I have been reading here and at other sites the "rollout" must be like a nationwide lottery

honjohnest

Not available in Scottsdale, Arizona at 1:11PM on the 28th...

I understand here is a way to get it directly, I just do not know the correct link. Perhaps it was at a beta user...?

Keith32

Not available yet in Mt. Vernon, Illinois but just noticed that the "Check for updates is not available at this time. Try again later." message comes up when I check for update. Perhaps the update is being uploaded to server?

jotns

Not available in Central Illinois either.

reinger

Not in Madison WI yet...

smadanek

Still "Check for Updates is not available at this time. Try again later" in SF Bay Area

jotns

4G is in the ball park of 10mbit correct?

Ok 1mbit connection pulls down 1/8 of a megabyte per second

10mbit connection pulls down 1.25megabytes per second

@ 1.25megabytes per second gives 75 megabytes per minute

354 megabytes should be pulled down in roughly 4.72 minutes

Please correct me if my initial assumption is incorrect. Due to networking being a dynamic system this can (and will) vary.

Note: I did not take into account if a kilobyte is 1000 or 1024 and so forth for megabytes

B33

Smash i'm the Area an just waiting till the Batt's are full on my Maxx's to see if it's on there b33

mclkjv

I KNOW STILL WAITTING TOO

bbub

Interesting. It's 2:35 am here on the east coast and I can no longer choose "System updates" from my settings menu on the Maxx. It is now grayed out.

Up until this point, I have been trying to update every couple of hours or so and would continually get the standard "Your device is up to date! No update is necessary at this time."

Now it won't let me manually check. Even after a Power off/on cycle.

Anyone else notice this?

B33

Try a Soft Reset press the Bottom Volume Down And Power at the Same Time then let it Come back. If that doesn't Resolve it I'm not sure what to tell ya Maybe Long Pressing it could get it Unstuck..

bbub

Thanks for the suggestion B33. I actually tried that and also rebooted into safe mode, but nothing brought back the the "System updates" option. It's still grayed out. I've never seen this before.

EDIT: Oh well. I'm going to bed. Maybe I'll wake up to some Ice Cream for breakfast! By the way, I tried on 4G and WiFi.

B33

Oki Doke Well i'm still waiting as well Hope it will Fix it's self by the time you Wake Up..

gsdlover1

still dont have it in Knoxville TN

BIGSAM67

We will not get it today either!!!!! We are being lied to!!!!! I was told when i purchased the droid razr maxx that it was coming next week, well i purchased it on April 3!!!!!

kevinr

My wife got it over a week ago. Apparently it was rolled out as a soak test on a completely random basis. If they are going to meet their Q2 deadline then they will have to finish by tomorrow. Since that is not a business day, I expect to see it by the end of the day.

BIGSAM67

Good Luck to that thought sir!!!!!

Techdls

Hi - my update has been running for 4 hours 20 minutes; the screen shows the red eye; and periodically the phone announces "Droid". I cannot use my HTC Android. Is there anything I need to do, or just wait it out?

Plz help

thanks

smashogre

Try a forced reboot:
Press the volume down and power buttons and hold them until it reboots. Good luck and post back with the outcome!
