Success!

Seems to be working consistently with this version of reader.
[Nook Touch General] ViViDboarder:
Awesome! Thanks for the update.
[Nook Touch General] urinsane:
Finally got around to rooting my Nook Touch, as I wanted to utilize the syncing feature of Google Play Books. They now let you upload your own epub files to your library, and I have been reading mainly on my phone or Nexus 7 as a result.

Unfortunately it looks like the 1.0.16 version does not support user uploaded books. All of my purchased books appear, but none of the many I uploaded. 1.5.2 and 1.5.4 both have the book not loading issue.

Anyone have any thoughts or other versions to try? Would love to get this working.
[Nook Touch General] ForSquirel:
I'm in the same boat. I can see my uploaded library in play but it's not loading the book. I think it has loaded the book but it's not ending the load part of the function. Just guessing.

Hope we can get this worked out.. This would help me tremendously being able to read on the N2T and sync across my computer and Nexus.

*update For some strange reason this started working for about a minute. Book I'm reading synced right to the exact page. Exited and went back in to see if it would still work and it went back to the looping circle page. It's so close I can taste it.

*update Managed to get 1.5.2 working but only in offline mode only. I've noticed the more pages the book has the slower it is to load, but it's loading none the less 9/10 times. Progress, so it is possible to get this working.
[Nook Touch General] enekomh:
I'm not really sure what version I am using now but it loaded once on my NST. However, the next time I tried loading a book it took forever to load (and I eventually closed the app). It might have to do with memory... Who knows... The funny thing is that once it has loaded the book it works like a charm. Really fast (I would say as fast as the native app). The only thing that don't work are the hardware buttons but it was quite expectable.
[Nook Touch General] hhairplane:
Any updates? Looks promising....
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
Here's a link to an old version that worked for me (I later uninstalled it,finding better sources for books).
[Nook Touch General] hhairplane:
Sorry meant the 1.5.2 or up version. I have uploaded books on Google Play that I hope to read.
[Nook Touch General] erixtone:
I'm also searching for this solution. I have tried the older versions, but there doesn't seem to be a solution. Best I've got is installing an old Google Drive apk, and downloading from there. Box also works, but it's Drive for me.

Can someone point me to an updated template for building a theme chooser theme for the Galaxy Nexus VZW?

Download a Holo theme from the market and adb pull it and use that. Probably the best example you can get.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] hollywoodfrodo:
I was planning on getting the Samsung TecTile tags, but then I found several other websites that sell NFC tags that look cooler (Android logo) and are better price. My questions are...

1) So long as these other tags are Read/Write would I be able to use them with Samsung's TecTile App just the same as with their own branded TecTile NFC tags?

2) Are there other Apps besides Samsungs TecTile App that work the same/better than Samsung's and allow for multiple commands by the same NFC tag?

The NFC thing seems like it could be cool and useful for a few things (in the car dock, in the bedside charger dock), but it's all so new that info and explanation seems hard to find.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
1.Yes

2.Not so sure about that, but Ill stick with the samsung app.

3.Post some links to the tags you got.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] sookieball:
Thanks a million! However I've tried this thread, and a bunch of other guides to flash ICS to no avail.

Won't get past errors in stock recovery

Gives signature verification error

Than another one with a ton of numbers

And another with "Met" something something.

Yeah... and I'm on stock .181 not rooted...

Idk what to do.

Don't mind the signature of this post. I'm typing for my boyfriends razr maxx

Have you rooted your phone and installed CWM recovery before?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aety9:
======Attention!

I would like to note: You want to have a FULL Charge, not just 50% or higher Otherwise, should you run into obsticles while flashing, you will not run into "Battery Low, cannot Flash" - (that is bad)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chagla:
hi there. i'm actually in the same position.

i had the bootstrapper, CWM and root. so prior to upgrading to ICS, i unrooted using oneclick tool, uninstalled boostrapper. still getting the same error as the screenshot above.

help is much appreciated. i just downloaeded 2.3.6 file from here.

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_spyder/list.php

will try to restore that and go really fresh.

thx.

update: someone at droidforums suggest this:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] streetmedic:
I too was rooted i un rooted using the ota rootkeeper. Also i cwm and was using boot strap i followed every step to the exact letter. I unrooted using ota and deleting root option. Then i used ver 1.7 and did option 1 once that was done i did as it states.. also make sure nothing... is frozen in titanium
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BrothaJINC:
Yea buddy!!! Thanks for this gunna try right now
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Thank Me Later:
I'm about to try this method. So if applied successfully I'm still considered fully stock is that correct? Any future ota's that are pushed I will be able to apply with no problems?

Thank you for the instructions and break down :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DXL007:
Let us know if this works or if you have to do a bunch of other things. I am rooted, using safe strap, and CWM
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Thank Me Later:
I will let you know if this works. I am completely stock 181. CDMA Verizon Wireless. I've never rooted my Razr Maxx.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MayfairDROID:
Im charging up now. I have the same set up as you:

Safe Strap w/CWR, Rooted with MotoFail, and Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper.

I have put all files in the proper locations, Removed Safe Strap, and then protected root with OTARootkeeper. Once charged up, I'll give it a try and let ya know...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sookieball:
Yeah, prior to attempt I removed root using voodoo and uninstalled boot strap.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tybalt39:
Just to verify (I'm just that way), does this firmware include the All-World radio upgrade (IE: as stated in the first post, this is the "official" ICS OTA release from Verizon that started rolling-out last week)?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Thank Me Later:
This method didn't work for me. All it did was factory reset my phone? I followed everything exactly and I made sure I did because I read each instruction like 2/3 times before I did it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jeff_roey:
The Pic you posted seems to indicate you're still trying to "update from zip" with the stock GB recovery installed.

The key to the whole process (at least for me) is to get the ICS recovery installed on the phone - the bot with its belly open and a blue orb and NOT the Exclimination bot above - before updating from the zip. Until you get the ICS recovery installed, you're going to keep error'ing out.

Use Matt's Utility option 1 as described in the OP. Go into recovery and check to see if the ICS recovery was installed - look for a bot graphic different than the one with the box and arrow initially. First, the laying down bot, then the blue orb bot. Once you get that, you can expect upgrade success. It might take two or three attempts at installing the zip with cache wiping in between but you'll get there.

You want to see the bot attached below :)

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Yes. This version of ICS has a global radio setting: system settings -> wireless & networks More . . . -> Mobile networks -> Network Mode. Choices are Global, LTE/CDMA, and GSM/UMTS.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MayfairDROID:
Looks like I forgot I had deleted some bloat. Once I get those files back in place, I'll proceed. I need the Blockbuster app if anyone has it :o

[Motorola Droid RAZR] MayfairDROID:
Thanks...

First I booted into recovery and did a system wipe

Then booted into the boot-loader and began following the instructions. Some notes:

Took a few times using Razr 1.7 to get the recovery on. Make sure that you see it copying over system, radio and other rather large files. If it just does a quick load then reboot, it is not complete. The Recovery image should be an android laying down on his back with its chest open...NOT the android with the triangle and exclamation mark. If you are not on this recovery, then it will not work.

I believe when the recovery is being put on by Razr Utility 1.7, it copies all needed files, so replacing bloat may not be necessary. I can not confirm this.

It takes a LOOOOONG time to install....and even longer to load the first time....

Rooted using RazrUtility 1.7 Option 3 (ICS v.4.04)

Used Option 7 to install the Safestrap for ICS (v2.0)

Loving the Ice Cream :)

Easy peasy lemon squeezy
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skeletor592:
ICS

I too can confirm this is working, i got an error at first trying to open the file but if you just wipe/factory reset it all goes smoothly, i also used razrutil1.7 to root and safestrap. Verrry good
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DXL007:
I did two phones, my wife's and mine. Both where on GB and rooted.

Here is how I did it

1. Used Razr Utility 1.5 to unroot the phone

2. Used Razr Utility 1.7 option 1

3. Loaded ICS

4. rebooted

5. Done
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dcmbullet:
definitely works!!

it took a while but this is what i did

factory reset phone

did steps in OP (did option 1 twice just to make sure files were properly loaded)

when in recovery, i tried to apply update got error wiped cache tried again same error.

reset phone into normal saw phone factory reset

turned off phone without pressing anything (green android to activate dont touch)

rebooted into recovery

wiped cache

installed update

prayed to gods old and new

sacrificed a goat

made a sandwich

rebooted and then factory reset for good measure
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jaws88:
Confirmed working. Was pretty straight forward. Had a force close right before the phone booted the first time so I had to restart. Did a factory reset in recovery and everything has been smooth sailing. Coming from a Galaxy Nexus, I horribly missed ICS. :P
[Motorola Droid RAZR] lashton:
version?

Is this for the International version or ONLY CDMA
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nuke747:
Immediately after step 7 in the original instructions, you should press BOTH volume keys at the same time and release. You should now see the phone's recovery menu (with blue text). Using your volume keys, scroll down to 'Wipe Data/Factory Reset' and hit the POWER button to select it.

Then do the same thing for 'Wipe Cache'. Then proceed to step 8, 'Apply update from external storage'
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ak68:
I used the sbf.droid site to manually update my razr to .181.to get ready to install ICS. I downloaded the file (1.2GB) to external SD then updated my phone with this zip. It started reading the SD then the screen went black. It has been that way for over an hour. What did I do wrong?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Pudgeman88:
the update failed and when I went to re-boot, it is now stuck on the Motorala Dual Core screen, doing nothing. Have pressed the lower volume key and power and it will shut off but then it starts up again and stays on that screen. Can get into Fastboot flash mode and Recovery but gives me an error halfway through the update. What can i do?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] curtdragon:
Nevermind, helps to read!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] streetmedic:
Awsome

Seems most mistakes are cause we dont read the entire instruction all the way thru.. please read them .. you should have no problems if you do just what it says to the exact letter and all is ok.. yes i was rootoed and bootstrapped priuor to doing this and now im rooted and bootstrapped again on 404..

[Motorola Droid RAZR] oildriller83:
To the ones failing with the line saying "logwrapper ". This file is left over from RAZR bootstrap. Do a quick Google search on how to completely delete and uninstall. It will fail every time even if the update is pushed to you. It was pushed to me as a "soak" and was getting the same error. Did factory reset 20 times and it does not delete the files necessary for the install to clear. Many that tried to install when the soak was sent out got the same errors. Many posts on the private forums. I promise the files have to be deleted, then it should install without a glitch

If you don't know what error your getting in your install, push both volume keys while installing in stock recovery to see the progress and the error when it throws it.

If I remember correctly, you have to download a root editor, go to system/startup/bin folder. Delete the files names hijcack and log wrapper, rename logwrapper.bin to logwrapper and reboot

[Motorola Droid RAZR] curtdragon:
Worked like a charm, I had to go back to 7 and do a wipe then it went through like a charm. Not sure if need but at 7 i'd remove the usb cable
[Motorola Droid RAZR] crzich:
Ok I need some major help, I've done these updates in the past but never with a utility, and now the phone won't even turn on.

I was getting an error message like "sideload error" or something like that so i did factory reset and cache wipe and was able to get the utility to reload all of the files but it kept giving me that error when installing update and now I'm stuck.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] curtdragon:
Honestly I think for most of you who have rooted the best bet is to just sbf back to stock, do a wipe then start at step 1 above
[Motorola Droid RAZR] crzich:
I didn't root, everything is stock, but I'll try from step 1 again. Seems like I've tried everything.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] curtdragon:
Yeah start back at step one.. when you run that tool make sure you read the tool as it says specifically when to hit next

Do I have to downgrade in order to get Version 4.04??
[Motorola Droid RAZR] usfbulls:
In Fastboot - Such as "Connect USB Data Cable"

I am running Windows 7 Pro. 64 Bit.

I did everything and was able to copy the files to the SD card.

Put the phone and fastboot and now I get the screen that shows:

Battery OK

OK to Program

Connect USB data cable

The cable is connected and it I restart the phone and plug the cable back in, everything seems fine.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am NOT rooted, and all Verizon apps exist.

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MayfairDROID:
Did you re-install the drivers for 64bit? I had to re-install the drivers that are provided with the Razrutilities...Re-install them, then open up device manager and verify that your phone is being recognized by Windows.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bearcatfan78:
Couldn't have been any easier

I haven't posted anything to these forums since 2009, when I was a heavy hitter on windows mobile (LMFAO). I followed the instructions to the letter with the exception of doing a data/cache wipe between steps 7&8, and VIOLA, Ice Cream Sandwich...and damn is it tasty... :o)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] usfbulls:
I still can't get the motorola drivers to work in Fastboot.

I have tried everything. Is there anywhere I can "browse" to the correct driver to install. Or can I download just the driver, no exe's? I need to manually install I guess.

Thanks again!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alcaron:
All kinds of failures here. When I run 1.7 and get the ICS recovery I get an error that it could not mount /data I had previously seen it say it couldn't mount /system I've wiped and nothing.

I went from a restored via 1.6 (which leaves you at .181 which I verified was working perfectly) to running the 1.7 again and flashing OTA, nothing.

I tried flashing the OTA straight from .181 recovery, it got much farther before complaining it couldn't do something in /temp.

At a loss. The ***** of it is, I waited in line, got my OTA, but because of a screwed up root guide I had followed when I initially rooted, the OTA wouldn't apply, I util'd back to .181 and now the OTA doesn't show up on my phone for ICS.

So tired of this ****. This is why locked bootloaders SUCK moto...

---------- Post added at 12:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:02 PM ----------

Ok, so, finally got it working, here's how.

Charged up to full (don't risk it, you are going to be spending a LOT of time flashing, I still wound up at 30% when I was done) which if you have to go to .181 and let it charge then start over, DO IT.

Used the 1.6 RAZRUtility (you can google for it and find it, I closed the window or I would post a link), selected option 1, let it work, when it gets don'e LET IT REBOOT THE PHONE. It applies, I believe, the OTA at that point and if you don't let it reboot into recovery (hit VOLUP+DOWN to see its status when its in recovery, as it takes awhile).

Once that is done, DO NOT BOOT INTO .181!

Go back into fastboot via the three finger salute and now run Utility 1.7, select option one. Once it's done power off by hitting the power button once (I think you can safely charge off the wall at this state if you are worried) then three finger it back to the menu, this time go into recovery, this should be the ICS recovery (no box with a small droid,just a big droid undergoing surgery). Go STRAIGHT to factory reset, once it's done, apply the update off the sdcard, and tada.

No amount of wiping the cache prevented me from getting errors, if I had been in .181 AT ALL, it was game over. Only going back to .181, then prepping for the OTA, THEN wiping and applying worked.

Hope anyone else in my situation finds this useful.

Oh and ICS is badass. Darker than stock ICS, I like it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JetFixxxer:
Getting errors

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command ge 0/1

Can't mount /data or /system is what I was experiencing, see above.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] adamlee06:
The guide used here is originally written by me, albeit copied without my permission and lack of notification. I've spoken with O_G about this already and he has removed my email from the original post, as well as correctly linking to my original guide. Thanks again for that.

As far as problems people are having, I am going to update the guide with known issues and appropriate remedies within the next few hours. I may ask O_G to update the first post, or start a new thread. Either way there a lot of posts here (as well as over 80 emails I've personally received) describing problems which are all user related. Due to this, the solutions need to be organized in a FAQ style, which I'll have up within the next hour or two (hopefully with pictures).

Glad my guide could help many of you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stupidchicken03:
kinda the same question..

If I end up manually installing the .211 update.. will I still be on the "official path" for upgrades?

So the next update can/will still be pushed out by OTA?

just wanna be safe than sorry :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stupidchicken03:
and ive heard that if you have Safestrap or Bootstrap installed, you want to uninstall them first?

Is it a simple long press on the app and click "uninstall"?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aigochamaloh:
You have a link for the 1.6 utility?

edit: I'm an idiot, just read your post again, you don't hahahaha.

Also, I'm interested in seeing what "user related" problems you'll be talking about adamlee. Followed the instructions to the T, on a stock non-rooted RAZR and still getting mount errors.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alcaron:
Copied out of my chrome history: Filefactory

And yeah I would disagree with adamlee that they are all user related. Pretty clearly the messy state of RAZR flashing/rooting contributed to this being pretty inconsistent. Safestrap completely screwed my phone up and I had to root with a one click after that, that wasn't user error.

Nor was it user error that unlike for most I had to wipe without EVER booting into the gingerbread to make it work.

---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

Also, this was personally twice as fast as any other mirror for the 1.7 util for me: Mirror

Those were both found in the...whatever forum (the one with the stupid registrations) where the dev posted them. Again, google is your (god) friend. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aigochamaloh:
Thanks, found it before you posted. Let it do it's thing like you wrote, still getting the mount errors in 1.7. Interesting.

I'm gonna RSD Lite the huge 1.13 GB stock xml back and try again. Sister's settings and etc are all gone already anyway, gotta get this working in any way possible.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stupidchicken03:
just tried to push it manually and it fail :(

put on the root of my SD card

used voodoo temp unroot

booted into recovery, cleared cache (twice), tried update from .zip

got an error 7 and aborted the install.

At least i didnt brick tho haha
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Stu_Gotti:
I followed the steps in the OP and, I did run into similar issues as many, but the process is pretty straight forward. I found for me I had to put the files in the root of my C: drive, plus I did both wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache before applying the update and things worked for me. Keep trying that same method... I kept doing it and eventually it worked..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aigochamaloh:
Went from stock xml via RSD Lite, then used 1.7. Still getting can't mount. Does the last line of the 1.7 tool have anything to do with it? "Erasing 'cache'"

edit: Well I let it boot into GB, then went into recovery again. This time the list of can't mount stuff was down to 2.

E:Can’t open /cache/recovery/command

Qe 0/0

E:Can’t open /cache/recovery/caller

It actually let me update from the sd card this time and now I'm running ICS. Seems to be working fine.
