Default Bad news! :(

Hey guys.

Motorola has confirmed that the DROID3 will not be receiving official ICS.

https://forums.motorola.com/pages/00add97d6c

Look under the USA section and it lists the DROID3 under remaining on Android 2.3.

Place your "DAMN IT!!!" comments here.

I'll post here again what I posted in the general section...

What happened to the Kexec port? One core at 1.2 would be a fair trade for a new kernel IMO.
Crack(flashing) is one hell of a drug.

I tried the ics build that overclocked to 1.2 and the speed was nice but it used the gummy build which in my opinion is eww..they should have used the straight cm9 or preferably aokp nightly and it would have been a better mod..I think we all knew in the back of our minds even thought we didn't want to believe it d3 would never officially see ics..all the d3 ever was is an quickrelease to generate cashflow to help fund the finishing for the d4, which in my opinion should have waited til d5 lol sadly I don't think we will see a d5 as a lot. Of the makers move away from a physical keyboard.. and due to what's involved I don't believe we will ever see a fully working,hw codec working ics build
Oh and DAMB IT!!!!!

I'm not a fan of ICS to be honest, but we should have the option of royally screwing up our phones at our descretion. If Verizon were to unlock us it would just bring them more full price replacement phone sales as we brick.
