Moto is getting ready to soak test JB! - RAZR HD General

According to droid-life.com:
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/11/1...te-for-razr-hd-and-maxx-hd-likely-jelly-bean/
I can neither confirm nor deny if such a program exists due to agreements I may or may not have made while filling out a form that may or may not exist.
I know that the rumor is Dec 17th but I wonder if a soak test means that time frame will be moved up or not.

I may have received an email this day that may have been similar. Was kind of surprised that they asked if you're rooted and sounded pretty cool with it simply requesting that you unroot before they pick your brain. Never ran a presoak before unless you count washing my car. Usually just grab leaks once they're available but didn't want to grab the recent leak knowing official JB was right around the corner.
Here's to a great phone getting a great OS update!

Hope I'm included in this!....

I take it you guys are not already on the 4.1.1 leak?

I nearly threw my phone against the wall when I saw that I couldn't delete "Verizon Bookmarks" from Chrome. What the hell?

Root. Uninstall with TiBu. Re-download chrome from play store.
Give finger to Verizon.
Rejoice.

Any idea as to how long it will be before the soak comes out? I tested ICS on my Bionic, and can't remember how long it was between the time I received the email and the update came to my phone.

They will send out another email when they start releasing the OTA update for the soak test.
Got my phone too late and doubt I will be added

When I did the soak for the OG MAXX, they sent a second email saying it was being sent out for the testing phase.
It was only a few days after the invite email was sent that the 2nd one was sent out and, that Saturday morning it was available to install.

Double check the forums. Verizon had Samsung lock the bootloader for our version. They have an exploit root. But, as far as I know, they haven't come up with a way to unlock. They have about a dozen devs working on it, so maybe. But it was enough to put me on to the nexus, instead

I should have got the nexus. But instead I went for the bionic. Its ok the device is getting ICS but the bootloader is locked .

Well I placed my order for the GSIII today. I will keep my Continuum as a wifi device and hang around. I know I said I would not buy another Samsung, but as others have said the Continuum is a fringe device. I know that's not an excuse for the terrible support, but I will only buy flagship devices from now on.

Just keep in mind that the majority of the fail was on Verizon. They are already speculating that the gnex won't get the jb ota until October, vs august for everyone else.

W-what? Before my dev edition?
Uhhhh... did all the nexus devices get 4.4 yet? If not well I guess that means the Moto X is getting update almost as fast as they are.

Motorola site says began pushing it out as nov 2013
What the? Verizon first? Come on tmobile..
I just switched to sprint for free and sold my us cellular moto x to pay the early termination, im now the proud owner of a moto x on sprint with unlimited data, I was paying so many overages with data as I use it to tether my surface pro. When sprint gets the update can I just unlock bootloader and flash su.zip since the sprint version is available for bootloader unlock?

There is no direct causative evidence pointing to the fact that the NDA was broken and if that was why the soak test was cancelled. However, yes, the soak seems to have been cancelled.
It is plausible that the test was cancelled so that they could begin the general rollout instead; which, if true, is actually a good move by Motorola. I don't see why anyone should be angry that the soak is cancelled in light of the news of the general rollout. Once we have our hands on the update file, we can ADB sideload and profit!

Wow. Some people really will complain about anything. The retail VZW version of the Moto X is the only one that can't be running 4.4 already; Every other one already has a ROM or images or whatever.

This is mind-boggling.
1. It's Verizon
2. It's before several Nexus devices
3. It's before Dev editions
Well, Hope that means my AT&T will be getting it's update soon....
Check for updates, mine is downloading as we speak.. no im not in the soak or any of that
Edit: Download complete, and update is installing.

I'm not miffed yet. It's been less than a week since Verizon got the update. I'll start getting annoyed if it takes more than two weeks after the Verizon roll out.
The weekend probably stopped them from releasing any more updates for different carriers. If Monday comes and goes without another Moto X update then I would worry.

Take a nap, relax, go to beach, make a trip, go to university cause Kitkat for us Brazillian will be released in the same time that Motomaker will: NEVER. Its a damn shame this.

Okay Sprint. What's the deal? (4.4)

Very hard to believe seeing as how Verizon was on it, next day T-Mobile gets updated and where is Sprint at?? The Sprint Galaxy Nexus was updated before any carrier, which was awesome but now the Moto X update to Kit Kat, not a word any where. I so wish my contract with Sprint was up because after being a 16 year Sprint customer, I am ready to jump ship with these fools. The network gets worse and worse everyday, it seems. It should not take this long for our Moto Xs to be updated!
Why are people still on sprint? It's no cheaper than any other carrier, and it has the worst signal. I get if you're stuck in a contract, but there are some that willingly sign a new one with them.
Could be Moto holding the update until a bug fixer is available for the rest of us. There are some bugs in Kit Kat that need attention.
Dude, US Cellular doesn't have it either... Doesn't matter how much we try. When it comes it comes.

Some people are experiencing hissing noises during calls that seems to only affect Sprint Moto Xs; other carrier Xs don't seem to have the issue and other phones in the same area of service for Sprint also don't exhibit this issue. This could also be a source for the delay.
